INSPECT RAILS
ON TROLLEY LINES
City Attorney Davis of Norwalk
and Public Utilities C0mmis-
sion Look at the Local Equip
ment

The Public Utilities Commissioners
in company with City Attorney Leo
Davis of Norwalk, and several Con-
necticut Co. officials were in this city
today for the purpose of inspecting
the various types Of rails used by the
Connecticut Co. on its local lines. In
NOrwalk there has been considerable
agitation regarding grooved rails and
many of the citizens have urged the
Connecticut Co. to provide that type.
In the party were Public Utilities
Commissioners Theodore B. Ford of
this city; John II. Hale, Of Glaston-
bury, and Richard T.. Higgins, of Win
chester; Attorney B. /. Spock, of coun-
sci for the Connecticut Co., and Gen
eral Manager Punderford
City Attorney Davis was shown the
girder rails which have flange, Civ
ing them the general appearance of
the groove variety. On Golden Hill
street the party was shown ."I.' rail
in brick pavement. At Elm and Main
streets Commissioner Hale asked sew
eral passing teamsters to drive across
the rails and turn out to show that
the wheels would not catch in the
rails. Attorney Spock bent down and
with a pencil dug out a layer of mud
from the groove, showing that the
trolley wheels only run over the upper
part Of the rail.

OTHER TRAINMEN
May NOT HELP
R. R. ENGINEERS

New Haven, April 10-Interest in
railroad circles here is centered today
in the count of the strike votes of the
engineers and what action other en-
ployes Of the road will take if it
should come about that the engineers
decided to go out. Many of the older
men on the road say that there is not
very friendly feeling between the
engineers and the other orders brought
about to large extent by the actions
Of the engineers when the other or
ganizations have had trouble with the
road At those times the engineers.
the men say, have acted in connection
with the employers and not giving
support to their fellow-employes.
There are also numbers of the en-
gineers who have risen from ffremen
who have not joined the Brotherhood
of Engineers but have retained their
aff1liation with the f1remen Whether
or not they will follow the dictates of
the officials of the engineers is also a
question Many of the other employees
say that the engineers are the high
est paid employees of the road at the
present time and that an increase, if
any is given, should go to those whose
wages are lower.

.H0LLY'S THEFTS
SAID TO TOTAL
ABOUT $45,20o
Chief Bookkeeper Of STAN
ford Savings Bank Held
for Superior Court
Bank Examiner Lippitt Is
sues Statement Saying
Thefts Do Not Affect
Soundness of Institution.

Stamford, April 1O-william H
Holly. chief boozkeeper for the Stam-
ford Savings Bank, with which ne has
been connected since 1889, was arrest
ed last night charged in warrant
with defalcations amounting to $14,-
725.
The total amount Of his peculations
as shown by a careful examination OF
accounts made recently by experts, is
$45,200 The statute of limitations
does not permit of charge based up
on stealings more than five years
ago.
Holly was arraigned in the city
court today. He had no counsel A
demurrer was entered for him and he
in $4,000 bail. although there is an
understanding that a bond Tor $4,000
will be accepted. s~
There had been rumors of trouble
in this bank for some weeks. A firm
of New York accountants was recent
ly employed to make a thorough ex-
animation of the books covering a per-
1od of several years, and it was dis
covered that the accounts had been
falsified in such a manner that dis
cOvery was difficult. The officers of
the bank. of which Charles H. Louns-
bury is president, say that the insti-
tuition can stand the loss easily.
There was no excitement at the bank
this morning and no one expects any
run.
Holly is about So years old and has
been popular in Stamford fraternal
and military circles. He is Mason,
Odd Fellow and Arcanum man. Pre-
vious to the Spanish war he was in
spector Of small arms practice Of the
Fourth Regiment, and later of the
brigade, with the rank of major. He
is not married.
State Bank Commissioner n. s. Lip
pitt gave out this statement today:
Il can assure the people Of Stam-
ford that they should not feel uneasy
over the trouble in the Stamford Saw
ings Bank. The defalcation is small
and the bank cannot possibly lose
over S35, 900. The bank has a sur
plus of over 100000 and can meet the
matter easily. I have thoroughly
audited all the other banks of the city
and find them in excellent condition.
One of Holly's methods was to
credit depositors on pass-books and
pocket the money. Another was to en-
ter fictitious accounts on the bank 9
books. He said today:
81 don't admit anything. have
nothing to say except that the bank
is perfectly sound. and the bank Off
cials have treated me well and kind
~. 7 have. only kind words for
them.''

While Roosevelt and Taft workers

appeal was made simply upon the rec

stand in behalf of progressive prin-

Old time politicians in the gloom
of the Taft defeat, today, admitted
that a vote of 10000 after the unos>

supporters made, is remarkable. They
declare that never before in the his

been made. under such circumstances.

tribunal in the State. 1t is the action

Philadelphia, April 1O-When the

today, it was the general impression
that several meetings would be nec-

Whether nearly resumption OF

was said, on the recognition OF the

miners stated. that without recogni-

wage increase would not result in
settlement. He declared that unless
all the original demands OF the men
were granted there was likely to be
a real strike: The operators came a
the conference direct from a meeting
in New York which Is said to have
decided against recognition. Presi-
dent Baer, spokesman OF the. operators,
is known to be unqualifiedly opposed
to recognizing the United Miners. II
was this position in the face of the
known tendency Of some OF the own
ers to unbend that led to q report
that Baer would resign from the COM
mittee. His closest friends today de-
MED this report.
In the conference, today, White
pointed out that the meeting virtually
recognized the union. He argued that

DRIVER HELD,
CHARGED With
MANSLAUGHTER
Coroner Phelan Finds Gross and
Criminal Negligence in Case
of DOminick Rizza.di
Run Down From Behind and
Dragged IS Feet by Sprague
Ice Cart Driven by Frank
WalachaSki

Finding Driver Frank Walachaski
of the Sprague Ice company criminal
ly negligent and responsible for the
accident which caused the death of
Dominick Rizzardf on April 3rd, Cor
oner John J. Phelan recommends that
Walachaski be held for manslaughter.
Prosecuting Attorney Delaney
promptly acted on the coroner's find
ing this morning, a warrant was is
sued and Walachaski was arrested
and brought to headquarters this af-
ternoon
Walachaski was the driver of q
Sprague Ice company two horse team
which ran down Dominick Rizzardi
of 439 Hallett street at 5 o'clock on
the afternoon of April 2, at the cor
ner of Congress and Middle streets
Rizzardi sustained terrible internal
injuries from which he died the fol.
lowing day.
Coroner Phelan finds that the driv-
er Of the ice wagon was urging his
horses alone "at what seemed an un.
usual and inmoderate speed without
such reasonable care and caution as
to safeguard the rights and safety of
pedestrians using the street at the
place designated"
L
cident was making his way along the
cross walk at the time and the ice
wagon was approaching from behind.
The coroner in his finding says:
Upon reaching the point to which
Rizzardi had walked the driver, who
was coming upon him from behind
carelessly pulled his horses to the
round the curve, although he had
ample space to avoid colliding had he
but exercised the Reasonable caution
which the necessity Of the situation
demanded"
Rizzardi was struck and knocked
down by the off horse. which stepped
on his back. the right front wheel
rear wheel wedging against his body
in such way that Rizzardt was
dragged between the front, Of the
wheel and the ground for 65 feet be-
fore the team stopped. In this con-
-nection the coroner finds:
"The evidence Of reputable by
standers showed that not Only was
the driver primarily negligent and
careless in colliding with Rizzar6i,
but persisted in his negligence and i'm
difference to results by urging his
horses forward after the collision.
When he saw Rizzardi's body under
the rear wheels as stated he did not
pull them up until a bystander got in
front of the horses and stopped them
by taking the bride of the right hand
horse.''
The victim of the accident was a
carpenter and is survived by a wife
and, several children The coroner.s
finding not only makes the driver
criminally liable, but if the charge
against him is sustained, leaves the
Sprague Ice company civilly liable for
damages through the negligence OF its
anp1OveS
