Steamer Maine of the Providence line, which reported the fire by wireless, was several miles astern of the Lowell l The wind was northwest and blew fresh breeze.
 Capt. William $. Durkee of Central Vermont line steamer New London, which came up the sound last night, said upon arriving at New London that the fire was not reported by his sub ordinateS as it would have been had the pilot Quartermaster or bow watch man seen it.

SUPERIOR COURT SUITS SETTLED
Agreement Reached in Appeal From Probate of Will of Mrs. Ann Curtin of Montville- Settlement Also in $35,O Suits Against Norwich and Westerly Road

The superior court came in here on Tuesday morning with four cases as signed for trial but none came to trial as all were settled outside of court by agreements between counsel and litigantS.
 The case of Mrs. Minnie Sheehan of New London against Attorney Perry J. Hollandersky of that city, administra- tor, an appeal from probate, was one of them. Mrs, Sheehan withdrew her appeal. The withdrawal followed a long conference between Attorneys Morgan and Smith which finally re- suited in a compromise and settlement.
 Several months ago Mrs Ann Cur made her son, Henry Curtin the sole beneficiary of her estate. The will was admitted to probate in Montville. Attorney HollanderSky was appointed administrator. Mrs. Sheehan, a daughter of the testatrix, took an ap- peal on the ground that her brother exercised undue influence over his mother on account of which she had left him all the property.
 Terms upon which settlements were made were reached in three other cases assigned for trial. They were those of Mrs Kate c. Copp of St. Louis, Mo, and Mrs. Esther Smith of West Mys tic, and Mrs. Esther Smith, admins tratrix, all against Norwich & Wes- terIy Traction Co. The amount Of the settlements was not divulged, but was understood to have been at much smaller amount than that at which tho suits were entered. Hull, McGuire & Hull represented the plaintiffs and Brown and Perkins appeared for the defendant company

Fl. LUPToN HAS
5 POOL HALLS

Fort Lupton. Jan. S.-The sub
ject of pool hall licenses occupied
the attention of the town council
here Friday evening, at which time
licenses were granted to Harold
Egner of Platteville, v. N. Peck
ham, NJ. J. Leonard and X. kato of
Fort Lupton.
The addition of these four pool
halls to the one already In town
will insure the young fellows plenty
OF places in which to spend the
long winter evenings when they are
not visiting iwth their best girls.
There has been a great deal OF
discussion here concerning the pool
hall question, and 1t required con-
siderable effort to secure the first
license. which was granted few
months ago; but after the ice had
been broken the members of the
council thought that 1t would be
just as well to have several halls
as to have one, 80 they granted the
additional licenses.

COAL SIGNS ON
DESERT CLAIM

Hudson, Jan. 3.-Considerable
excitement is prevalent in this vi
cinity over the report that coal has
been discovered on the desert claim
owned by T. Mcclure, three miles
east of town.
Plans are under way for the
working of the land. Experts from
Denver have examined 1t and have
'eclared that there Is undoubtedly
a rich vein OF coal about five miles
square beneath the surface OF the
property.
The coal was discovered by acci-
dent at a point where 1t had been
barred by the wind. 1t is near the
surface and, therefore. will require
minimum expense to uncover and
is expected to net the owner neat
sum In profits.
Other land owners in the district
are boring holes in the ground ON
their farms in the hope of finding a
similar vein.
