Detention of woman witness whose identity is guarded. but who Is known to have been under police escort from the Spaghetti house at 443 Water street; further investiga- ton of the local police records by government agent for the unearthing of criminal records of men supposed to be close to the white slave traffic, and the attempt to start defense fund for the prisoners, were the im- portant developments today of the in- vestigation of the Jennie Cavalieri murder case.
 The woman was taken from th1 rooms where Jennie Cavalieri had her last meal, and from where the band standing at the curb, took her, to en- ter the car for her death ride.
 Government agents have compiled 3 set of records of men convicted of various crimes, whose criminal his tory they have been anxious to learn. Some of the names they have investi- gated came to light through the cor lieri's effects while other names came to them through the investigation carried on now Jointly by the state agents.
 The appearance of a man who has been stranger to Bridgeport's un- derworid for some time was reported to the police and investi gators early today. This is Frank FerriIlo. He used to reside in Water street, near the Spaghetti house from which the unfortunate woman was taken to her death, and had a weakness for fast horses and flashy clothes.
 Fertile Forfeited a $500 bond several years ago rather than face trial for a charge that might have meant a jail sentence for him. The authorities fear ed that public scandal involving a prominent family whose daughter had fallen more or less under his influence, might result from F-rrillo's trial and he was given to understand that if he cared to forfeit the bond and quit the city this would be aaecsptable to the prosecutor. Ferrilio took advan- tage of the bargain and quit the city.
 He came here today from Poush- keepsie, it is said to start a defense fund for the prisoners. FerriHo met with a cold reception at the hands of those he approached, for those who know the prisoners are afraid of be coming identified with them, for fear of molestation by the police.

of an enga cement unprecedented in violence and of tremendous loss on both sides.
 Very little was known. today, of the situation in western Turkey but the few despatches, received from Bel grade and Athens, hint at heavy losses by Turks and Greeks.
 Sofia, Oct. s1.-The Turks have been complstely routed at H,9 Lnle Bur nouncement issued here, today. They are fleeing, the statement asserted, with Bulgarian cavalry In pursuit. The war office here estimates the number of fleeing Turks at 100000.

 1t was said the diplonfats Of west ern Europe have practically agreed upon a program of intervention which may be expected at any time. Servia, Montenegro and Greece are willing to accept this action, it was said. but Bulgaria, it was reliably reported, ob- fects. Even Russia was understood to oppose permitting Ferdinand to reach the Bosph horus.
 The powers themselves will have trouble keeping the Bulgarian army out of the Turkish capital if he in sists on advancing. Doubtless it can be done by concentrating a fleet in the Rosphorus and threatening them with a bornbar dment from the long range guns but it is recognized that this would be a very ticklish step.
 Messages were being exchanged in hote haste, today, between the various chancellors but what the outcome was expected to be is not yet clear.

turn the first of next week accompanied

Wenzel, the nineteen months old son
of Mr.. and Mrs. A. J. Kuberry, was
the cause of considerable excitement
yesterday when he emptied a bottle of
carbolic acid. 1t was thought at first
that he had drank it all but it is now

mouth, cheeks and hands as considerable

They need to develop home industries
up around Harvey, according to a re-
port from that town, which says: One
Harvey farmer buys canned and dried
fruits, likewise other canned goods. He
gets up at the alarm of a Connecticut
clock, fastens his Chicago s%uspenders
to his Detroit overalls, washes his face
with Cincinnati soap in a Pennsylvania
washpan, sits down to a Grand Rapids
table and eats Indiana hominy fried in
St. Paul lard on a Detroit stove. Then
he puts a Duluth bridal on a Minnesota
mare and plows a farm covered by a
Vermont mortgage. When bed time
comes he reads a bible printed in Chica-
go, says a prayer written in Jerusalem
and crawls under a blanket made in
New Jersey, only to be kept awake by
a Dakota dog-which was the only home
raised product on the place.
