SEC. BRYAN'S ANCIENT
 COIN FOR HIS SEAL

Washington, May 31.-Secretary Bryan has just made for himself a private seal of which he is especially proud. It is a reproduction of the design on a coin circulated in the tim of Alexander The Great, which Col. Bryan obtained while on his tour around the world. The design dis closes a man holding a bird afolt. The bird is said to resemble a falcon, but Secretary Bryan, whose peace propen- sites are we'll known, insists it is 'tdove of peace
 MT. Bryan had not become the head of the statede apartment long before he realized the onerous task of affixing his own signature to the enormous mass of correspondence which comes over his desk. So he hit upon the scheme of a private seal and stamp bearing the words william J. Bryan" and his name win be stamped upon all documents and papers of a purely routine character

STUCK NARROWLY
 ESCAPES DEATH
 IN MACHINE FRY
Workman at Coulter & Nc. Kenzie's Caught in Gear
 ing of Tumbling Barrel.

Isolated from other workmen who failed to hear his cries above the din of the trip-hammers in the Coulter 6S Mckenzie foundry on Connecticut av- nue this morning, John Shucl<, 3S years old of Willard street, was slow lv drawn towards death this morn ing in the gears of a tumbling barrel, that he was operating.
 That he was not killed is due to the margin of space between the machine and a light board wall against which his skull was tightly wedged. At each revolution of the bolt studded wheel terrible lacerations of the head were inflicted which before his awful danger was discovered resulted in the flesh of his forehead being torn to the bone which was also being slowly worn away But few minutes long CT and. the cruel irons would have reached a vital spot. Taken to Bridge port hospital it is said he will sur vive.
 Shuck was detailed to attend the +ll11loltne, barrel this morning. It con sfsts of a series of wooden stakes bolt ed to opposite wheels and reVolVeo Inv means of cogs. The bolt project o11twardlv forming a series of sharp n,-oiections It is believed that the orera tors clothing caught in the gear inr and that he was slowly drawn befween the wall and the bolts which one after the other slowly cut through fI1e flesh of his skull.

 It was only in recent years that pr. Laiider suffered from the disease which caused his death. Last sum mer while living in GuiIford he had a cerebral hemorrhage which affect ed his right, side for time and made it difficult for him to speak, but he re- covered from this.

FINES IMPOSED IN TRUST CASES
 REACH $I5I,957

Washington, May s1.-Bfnes impos- ed by the federal authorities on trusts during the current fiscal year for alleged violations of the Sherman law aggregate to date $151.957, or more than three-fourths of the $200,- gress for the years prosecution of com binations in restraint of trade.

 Some of the fines were levied during the administration of former Attor- ney General Wickersham and some under the present administration of Attorney General McReyno1ds, but all of the cases were in direct charge of James A. Fowler, assistant to the at torney- general, who has broken, the records of all other trust busters of the government in the number of antitrust cases lodged in the courts.

PRIZE FIGHTER
 IS DYING FROM
 STREET SHOOTING

New York, May 31.-Two myster- ious street shootings occurred, early today. As a result of one of them, Charles Hubbard. a prize fighter known as Jumbo Wells. is dying at a hospital. He was shot nine times apparently in duel with an unknown man.
 A taxicab in which Hubbard an other man and a woman were riding, left an all night restaurant on Broad way for a trip to Chinatown. At 38th street, the cab was stopped and the two men stepped out armed with pis- tols While the woman looked on. they exchanged shots until Hubbard fell His opponent, believed to have also been wounded, got into the cab with the woman and disappeared be- fore witnesses could call the police
 Hubbard is an Australian fighter who came to this country several years ago. He has appeared in most of the local clubs but has never won any important bouts
 Patro1nan William Barry, early to- day, shot and killed man who was afterwards found to be also wearing a police shield. Barry said he saw the stranger shooting wildly into the air on 10th avenue, this morning. He shot to frighten the man but killed him. The police believe the dead man is Patrick Gallagher, a probationary officer.

 Hartford, May 21-Many a heart that beats high with hope will be filled with disappointment when the legis- lature adjourns, Wednesday. as it must, at midnight
 Some dozen or more of judgeship contests, upon which there are divided reports, were sent to the foot of the calendar, Thursday afternoon, upon the motion of MT. Healy of Windsor Locks.
 This means they are practically bur jed, and will never be reached, and that the governor will appoint.
 Among the reports which were re- tained in an advantageous place on the calendar, though a divided report, is that upon Judge Carl Foster, of Bridgeport.
 The resolution appointing CoughIin has passed the Senate, has not yet been brought to the attention of the House.
 The prospects in the city court mat ter point very strongly to a deadlock in which case the governor will name the next judge of the Bridgeport tri- bunaI.
 Another matter in which there was great disappointment, was related to the county commissionerships. Mir. Hall of Wilmington, House chairman of the committee on conference, re- ported lnaD1liIy LO agree On d promise. He said Senator Peck was unwilling to agree in behalf of the Senate. The House members had hoped to reach an agreement upon the basis of four Republica,nse and four Democrats, the division to be deterTn- ined by the political complexion of the several counties. Three had more Democratic members, and three had more Republican members Two were tied. ~ sr.,
 The failure to agree came from the Democratic side, upon the theory that Governor Baldwin. who believes in minority ~epresentation wil appoint eight Democfats.-s
 Nevertheless the result was a deep disappoirtment to the Republican and Democratic candidates, among whom was former Mayor Mu1vfhill of Bridge port who would have benefited under the proposed compromise.
 Another bill of interest to Bridge port. which passed Thursday, was the hospital appropriation bill. It carried the regular appropriations for main tenance to Bridgeport and St. Vim

EXPRESS OFFICE IN STAMFORD
 BURCLA ARMED Door Forced Open and va1u- able Mail Matter
 Taken Packages and Letters Torn Open and Contents
 Destroyed

The Adams Express conpany's of- flee at the Stratford railroad station was broken into some time after 12 o'clock last night, three U. s. mail bags full of valuable mail matter stol- en, and a score of express packag ges torn open and the contents strewu about the office
 The burglary looks like the work of experienced hands at the game and it is thought by the authorities that some one came into the town on the midnight train last night and broke into the office shortly after. Entrance was gained by prying open the front door of the office with a crowbar or similar implement.
 |, On getting into the office the bur- glars began systerna tical1y to tear open all the express packages which looked as if they might contain va1u- ables. Most of the pacba ges, however. contained clothing. dress goods. and other articles which evidently did not appeal to the tastes of the persons ex- amining them for after they had been opened up they were discarded. the floor of the office being filtered with their contents when the burglary was discovered this morning.
 i, Three U. s. mail bags which had been left in the express office because the post office was closed yesterday on account of the holiday were taken out into an open lot, cut open with a knife and dozens of letters torn open. Money. seemed to be what the fellows who turned the trick'' were looking for. as the contents of the letters were thrown about after they had been torn open. It is not yet known just how big a haul the burglars made
 When it was discovered that the sta ton had been broken into this morn ing State Policeman Rowe H. Wheeler and the railroad police at New Haven were notified and they are now work ing. on the case.
