some time that he was in poor health
and that he was in the care of
nurse much of the time.
Regarding his actions, which result
ed in his being taken to the hospital, a
New York exchange said on THURSDAY:
Alexander Dom. so years old, who
lives at the Columbus apartments, One
Hundred and Fifty seventh street and
Broadway. the secretary and one of
the largest stockholders of the William

ing held in the psychopathic ward OF
BelIeveue hospital.
Mr.. Don has been connected with
the company for many years and has
amassed a considerable fortune. Be
sides his interest in the boiler concern
he owns considerable real estate in the
Bronx and ON Long Island. For several
days Mr.. Don has been acting strange
ly. Yesterday morning he announced
that he was going to buy an automo-
biles and said that he intended to have
the finest and the fastest one that
could be had in New York. Shortly
| before noon he left the office, saying
that he was going up town on BUSH
ness.
He went to the salesrooms of the
Packard Automobiles company and
bought a six-cyIinder touring car the
best in the shop. The price was $4,000.
Mr.. Don had considerable money with
| him and left a cash deposit of $1,000

| delivered at his Murray street office
this morning, when the balance iof the
money was to be paid.
When he returned to his Office Mr..
Don announced that he had bought the
machine and said he would drive it rs
| soon as it was delivered. One of his
| friends asked him if he had hired a
| chauffeur, and he replied that he did
not intend to have a chauffeur. Then
| it was suggested that he receive some
! instructions before he tried to run the
| machine. but this he refused to = do,
saying that he knew more about auto
mobiles, although he had never been
| in one. than any chauffeur did.
Then, fearing for his safety, Fred
erick w. Dauchey, president of the
company, sent for two nurses and had
| him taken to Bellevue. Today Mr..
Don will be transferred to- a private
| sanitarium.

Fees For Pedd!ing Should be Raised
Business Mems Association Thinks Norwich Gets More
Than Its Share Report State Meeting.

glad to be informed of the associa-
TONS attitude towards the bill.
The arrest and conviction. OF an
itinerant peddler in the city court on
Thursday morning for fraudulent sales
was brought to the attention OF the
meeting The association has been
urging for some time that the license
for peddlers should be increased from
the 81 flat rate which prevails here.
In New London the license fee for
house to house peddlers is 81, but for
peddlers who want to sell on the pub
lie square it is So. Here the license
fee is 81, whether for house to house
canvassing or public selling. 1t is
claimed that this gives Norwich more
than its share of the itinerant ped
dlers. who pass by New London be-
cause of the IS rate in force there.
The meeting endorsed the action
taken locally in the effort to help the
development of new industries here,
and also was informed of the prices
charged in the various cities of the
state where the duties of the sealer
of weights and measures are actively
enforced. The association took the
matter up at its previous meeting and
has under discussion the advisability
of doing something about making the
office. more active one here.

FAVOR SOIL SURVEY.
Action Taken by New London Business
Mems Association.

A resolution was unanimously adopt
ed by the New London Business Mems
association Wednesday night favoring
the survey of the soil of New London
county. This action was taken on the
suggestion contained in a letter re-
ceived from Congressman Higgins, who
has applied to the secretary of agri-
culture for the authorization of the
survey. Last year a soil survey was
made of Windham county by the bu-
reau of soils of the department of ag-
riculture and at the same time he at
tempted to arrange for a like survey of
New London county. He was unable
to accomplish this because of the large
number of demands of a similar nature
throughout the country and the made
quacy of the appropriations. In his
letter Congressman Higgins suggested
that if the New London Business
Mems association would adopt resolu-
tons favoring the survey it might fa-
cilitate matters.
