Il, after beating one Of the guards in Go nnconsciousness, when the matter came up for action before Judge Mil ton Shumway in the criminal side of the New Haven superior court yes was Sertenced to state prison, the ring leader Frank Collins, alias Edward King who, fl was claimed, hatched the 5ail-brealdng conspiracy, and who to unc0nscioJ1En ess was given term of Tgpxn one to ten years. The others who escaped with Collins and recap 1ured were all sentenced to from one to four years in state prison They are Otto SchIittler. Elmer Clifford, Andrew McManus.

 Collins, who received the heaviest sentence of the six, broke into a smile when Judge ShumWay. pronounced sentence upon him, his manner of re- celv5ng the states prison term being in marked contrast with his followers. who fairly covered before the judges bench They wont have me up there led by two Sheriffs to the prisoners pen The first chance get, it's the open country for me- and then the whole police of the state can't get me- He entered the prisoners, pen and laughed at the dejected attitude Of his companions despite the fact that he had received the heaviest sen- tence of the day.

change. He has in view two im- portant projects, both of which have progressed further than the merely initial stage, although neither is so far advanced as to be a certainty. One is the erection on the Ridge of a large building suitable for department store, and the other is the starting of an automobile business in Bridge port with the county agency for the Moon auto as it's foundation feature. Negotiations are on for the building of d garage at the corner of Main and Grand streets to be used by MT. Klein under a lease of at least two years, and decision on this project will be reached within a few days. Should that enterprise be launched MT Klein's partner in it will be Henry Drucker. his present associate in the running of the Bedding garage. An apparent obstacle to the execution of the plan for department store on the Ridge was the difficulty of securing site, but Mr. Klein announced that he has the choice of three advantageous locations, one of them being the res idence property of Aaron H. Sanford. Should the store, undertaking go for ward the expectation is to have the building ready for business by the first of May next

COLE PROPERTY SOLD

Mrs. Mary J. Cole has sold her prop erty on the back road leading from Jump Hill to the Forge district in Weston, to Attorney s. c. Shaw for price understood to be about $1 800. The property comprises a house with farm buildings and 80 acres. Tn the transaction MT. Shaw acted as agent for Henry Sanford of New York, who says that he expects the place to be taken over by one of his friends. There has been considerable conjec- ture as to the identity of the real purchaser in a number of transa ctions during the past two or three years by which various parcels of propety in the same locality have changed own CTS In some of these deals A. l.. Liverrnore, who is MT. Sanfor6's at torney, was the purchaser, and in oth- CTS George S. Banks figured in that capacity. An impression obtained that in most of these instances MT. San ford was the real buyer and that he designed to make the tracts part of a game preserve. Authentic informa- tion on this score is yet lacking The conjecture is an interesting one, and especially so in connection with the purchase by Judge winthrop Perry of Southport of about 1,50O of wild land in the upper part of Weston.

ATT, THE NEWS HAPPENINGS OF FAMOUS OLD TOWN INTER-

Bedding, Oct 3-A complaint made to Grand Juror Duncan last week by William Miller of the west side caused the former to consult the statutes in order, to ascertain whether the law recognized such a, crime as attempted theft. He found that it did not eX- cept when combined with assault in an effort to rob the person assaulted. A lawyer whom he consulted confirm ed this view of the matter.

Friends of First Selectman Charles Sanford were relieved to learn that the indisposition which he suffered just after arriving in Bridgeport last F'ri- day morning to attend the Democratic Congressional convention and which prevented him from taking part in the deliberations of that body, was not of a serious or permanent character. It happened that the alternate appointed by MT. Sanford was called away be- fore the convention reached a ballot, thus presumably depriving Candidate Wilson of one vote he had counted up- on AE

headed by James S Alexander, president Of

O0O will be made by William H. Wadhams,
representing the c. c. Dickinson estate,
when the application of the State Superin-
tendent OF Banks comes up for argument
to-day before Justice Gerard Of the Su-
prene Court
The Dickinson estate owns lG04 Of the
zoe shares of the Carnegie Safe Deposit
Company. the remainder being held by the
Carnegie Trust Company. The Carnegie
vaults cost upward of $4,000. and, accord
ing TO Mr.. Wadhams nave recently got on
q paying basis, the net earnings at present
being about $4,000 a year The value Of
the vaults. he says. have been greatly en-
hanced through the destruction of the Mer-
camille vaults by the Equitable fire, and
new contracts arc coming in at the rate
of $500 day.
Why the Superintendent of Banks wishes
to dispose of the vaults just at this time,
when they are more than paying their way
and new contracts are coming in at such
rate, for what appears TO be such an en-
tlrely inadequate consideration is one Of
the things the stockholders want TO know,
Mr. Wadhams said. The stockholders be-
lieye that by waiting a little longer bet
ter offer would be received. and they see
no reason for selling the property at such
Iow figure just because it happens to be
