SNOW REMOVAL
 COSTLY; NOT
 MUCH REMOVED
Bitter Complaint Made Over Condition of Many Streets
 and State of Cutters

Mayor Wilson. Director Courtade and City Auditor Keat1ng do not agree this morning over the state of the funds devoted to removing snow from the streets.
 The Council appropriated $5,oo0 from unappropriated revenues, last night, to meet the cost of removing another snow, if one should fall. It took this action upon the statement of the mayor that $1O,000 already ap- propriated has been exhausted. and that City Auditor Keating had said that $5,OoO is available from unap- propriated revenue.
 Director Courtade is responsible for the statement that the cost of remov- ing the last snow fall was approxi- mately $6,000.
 Auditor Heating said this morning that he has not consulted with the mayor regarding .unappropriated rev enue, and that he knows of no funds from which the appropriation of last night can be met.
 In the $6,OOo which Director Cour- tade says it cost to clean the streets was included $1,6OO which was the payment for February of the regular street cleaning gangs By the process of subtraction there should be about $4,OOO still available for street clean ing work from the $l0,OOO which was transferred from the appropriation for the widening of the west side of Main street between John and Bank Sts. If the $5.OO0 extra voted by the coun- ci1 is found there should be about $9,- 900 available for snow removal work in case another storm comes. Despite the statement of the. mayor that the streets have been thoroughly cleaned, many streets in the center of the city are still in a depIorab1e condition. Not an inch of snow has been taken from Bank street between Main and Broad streets.
 There are ruts in that street nearly a foot deep and the street is almost impossible for traffic of automobiles and other vehicles. Fully six inches of snow and ice remain on Cannon street between Main and Broad streets Lower Main street is in a deplorabIe condition is Union street and State street beyond Park avenue where there is much heavy trucking.

.ERUDITE RECTOR DIES ON EVE OF HIS RESIGNATION stratford Clergyman Hoped to Live to See His Glass
 Confirmed BISHOP ADVANCED DATE TO PLEASE HIM Death of Rev.N. E. Cornwall Shock to Church Through
 out Diocese

Almost on the eve of his resignation from the rectorate of the oldest church of the first Episcopal diocese in this state, Rev Nathaniel Ellsworth church. Stratfords died suddenly at his home the rectory, at 1869 Main street, StI'atford, last evening.
 Mr. Cornwa11's decision to resign be- came known when he wrote to his bishop, Rt Rev. Chauncey B. Brew ster, D. D., asking him to advance the date for his forthcoming visit to Stratford- MT. Cornwall was prepar- ing g, class for continuation. The rite was to have been administered the latter part of April.
 But when MT. Cornwall realized his advancing feelbleness. he asked the bishop to make the visit before EaS- ter. He pointed out that the class in cluded many whom he had baptized, and that he would keenly appreciate the knowledge that they had been consecrated to the church through the rite of confirmation, fbefore he left the rectoTate. To this request, Bishop Brewster readily saEqudeSced.
 The rector was advanced in years, was failing in health and was l-nwil- ling to bear longer the responsibilities of 8. task for which he Helt he S.as not physically equipped. His death was not wholly unexpected butt it was a
 
 immediate flock, but to fellow towns men and a large number of admirers in tfais and other cities of the state.>
 But the grief at MT. CornwaHs de- mise is tempered by the solace of his practitioners in the fact that he died among them. Had ne survived the Easter season, he would have retired. His appropriateness feel that had he been able to carry out his, plans. he would hnve zanguished without tho church responsibilities that had grown to be part Of his personality.
 Rev. Nathaniel Ellsworth Cornwall came Of "a family prominent in the Episcopal diocese of Connecticut He was named for his father, who for many years was rector of the Epis- copa1 church in Southport, and was, in his day, aInong the best known Episcop,alian c1lurchrnen of New Eng land.
 The Stratford rector was a. native of Southport He spent his early days in the rectory of the old Episcopal church of Southport, and received his college training in Columbia Univers- ity. (Continued on Page Two)

tice adopted in the case at bar This defendant now invokes Section Is Of Article 1 of the Constitution of Connecticut, and the Fourth Amend ment to the Constitution of the Unit ed States, in aid of his contention that warrants so issued, and especially the warrant issued for his arrest in this case, are in violation of the con-
 stituttona1 prohibitions therein con tained A most exhaustive brief and a very clear and logical argument has been made in support of this conten- ton. I am inclined to think that if tbe practice or custom so long and go
 universally adopted, is in violation Of those constitutional provisions it should be so established by the. esu<t of last resort, rather than by the su- perdor court, and to that end the con tention of the defendant is overruled without a more exhaustive examine ton by the trial court of the au- | thorities submitted.
 | I am the more free to make this
 ruling forgt1e reason that the court is- suing this warrant adopted, at the request of the defendants counsel, the
 unusual practice of giving the accus-
 ed, through his counsel, an oppOrtuu- | ity to be heard upon the question of
 the issuance of the warrant before
 that action was in fact taken At
 that hearing, so far as the record
 discloses, and understand that the full record is contained in defend
 ants ''ExhfpH B." no claim was made
 by the accused Or his counsel that
 the Constitution, either state or fed era1 required, as a, condition precos
 dent to the issnance of the warrant, a
 finding of probable cause of the guilt
 of the accused, based upon oath or
 affirmation other than that of the
 states attorney upon his oath of of flee.
 l With the accused present in court.
 and full opportunity given to be heard | in opposition to the issuance of the Ebench warrant, the occasion was then
 and there afforded him to require, or
 at least undertake to require, the pre- entation by the gtate's attorney of the evidence necessary to satisfy those
 provisions of the Constitutions which
 he now dnvokes-
 Having neglected so to do, do not
 feel it proper for the court at this
 time to disapproye and declare errou-
 eous the action of the court in issuing | the warrant.
 The plea. to the jurisdiction Is over
 ruled and the motion to vacate war rant is denied.

knew Plew was coming back after he had left the house Sunday afternoon. She admits that she did not tell. her husband that P1ew intended to return or that P1ew was armed with his dead 1y weapon and deadly drug
 That the court erred in saying: . That if any influence was exerted by her to work upon the mind of P1ew with her knowledge and with her intent, it is sufficient to make her an encourager of this crime.'

 The first argument today was made by MT. Devine. In his argument un- der Statement of fact he said that James Plew killed William o. Wake field in Cheshire on the morning of June 23, 1913, and later P1ew and Mrs. Wakefield were jointly indicted for the murder. Flew pleaded guilty and left it to the court to say what degree of guilt if any, he incurred. Mrs. Wakefield pleaded not guilty. was tried and q verdict of guilty rend- cred. A motion to set aside the ver- dict as against the weight of evidence was, denied, by the tria1 court and an appeal taken to the supreme court for alleged errors in rulings and the charge to the jury.
 MT. Devine contended that, when Mrs. Weak kefieTd gave her testimony be- fore the coroner. .'she was under sus- picion, under arrest and in the pres ence of adthority. She was not told by any one, nor did she know thai she was free to speak or hold hea peace. On the contrary, she was sworn forthwith and three times dur ing the hearing she was commanded to speak. Tn such circlmstancea she told the coroner her story. Later or the same day in New Haven the cor oner recalled Mrs. Wakefeld to re. peat her story. Three times later she repeated her story to the coroner

Tt anpears from the files in the above entitled case and from Exhrp1t Az filed in connection with the de- fendant's motion that the accused was arrested oh 9, warrant issued py tne superior court for Fairfield county on April 15, 1913, upon an original in formation presented to said court by the state attorney for Fairfield coun- ty, and without any previous arrest or inquest by a lower tribunal.
 Section 14s0 of the General Statutes authorizes an original information in the superior court against any person accused of crime in cases in which an inferior court may bind over for trial
 Manslaughter of course is such a case.
 warrants issued by the superior court upon such original information have for generations been denominated as 'ebench warrants" presumably to distinguish them from warrants issued out of an inferior court.
 There is no inherent distinction and no practical difference between the two classes of warrants, except as to the court isssaing them. Perhaps the mo- menclature employed by so many gen erations and so general in its Use may have tended to create in the pub lie mind, and even in the minds o1 members of the bar, an idea that a
 
 tain distinctive and peculiar charac- teristics not appertaining to the ordin- ary warrant issued out of an inferior court. If so, there is no just ground for such opinion.
 This being true the conditions pre- cedent to the issuing of a warrant
 must be the same in all courts. Nc greater formality is required for the issuance of a so called 'Nbench war rant than for. that of any other. The practice in this state from the ! foundation of the government, both before and since the adoption of the present constitution in 1918, has been for courts and magistrates to issue warrants for the arrest of persons ac- cused of crime upon the information of the state attorney, a prosecuting attorney, or a grand jurots as the case may be, such officer making his com plaint upon his oath of office, un- supported, so far as the issuing mag 1 fstrate or court is concerned, by any other oath or affirmation tending tc show probable cause that a crime has
 been committed by the person in formed against.

 MT. Bud1ong denied that the fac tory had been crippled by the walk out of the polishers. He said some men had been hired in the places of those who left. He would not say whether there would be concessions to the strikers.

35 DEAD, B MISSING, IN
 STORMS PATH Property Loss From Gale Is Estimated at $1O,-
 OOO,OO FOOD AND COAL SHORT. CITY POOR SUFFERING Grave Fears Are Entertain ed for Big Vessels Long
 Overdue

New York, March 3-With six ships ashore along the coast, thirty-five known dead and twenty-three persons missing, itwas estimated today that the property damage due to the storm of the last two days will reach s1o,- 900, O,o0O.
 The death toll may be augrne ented by twenty-three men on 'barges be1iev- ed to have foundered off Fire Island. They were abandoned by their tugs when the latter were forced to cut the hawsers or be dragged down.
 1nterurban traffic became nearly normal today, both on the steam and electric cars, although the Lakewood Atlantic City express is still showed in two miles from Red Bank, N. J. But for the heroism of L. F. Stoddard, the polo player, who risked his life in securing food for the one hundred nlarooned on the train since Sunday, their condition would be much more serious today.
 FOOD AND COAL FAMINE
 As an aftermath of the storm, a food and coal famine threatens the city. There was some milk on hand at daybreak, but the dealers despaired of being able to deliver it owing to the condition of the streets.
 Cities outside the Metropolitan dis tict and New Jersey suffered from the storm. Two deaths are reported in Cleveland. In BinghaInton, a woman froze to death in a sleigh while her son sought aid for her.
 Five men and women were killed and scores suffered from exposures in Phtlade1phia- Food supplies there are short and traffic conditions are re- ported in a chaotic condition. PNEUMONIA PREVALENT. Scranton reports conditions a1mest as bad as here. There are four known dead. This number, it is believed. will be augmented as a result of t1esman pneum moflia eases, resulting from 5000 persons being marooned while attend ing a. revival service under Billy Sunday.
 The grawest fears are entertained for the safety of many overdue yes sells. Thirty ships are at sea that should be moored to their berths Great fields of ice in the river and lower bay have resulted in Sthe big gest tie-lp of traffic New York has known in years.
