CORR AND GAS
 MURDERS WORK
 O SAM|E GA ]?
] Authorities At Work On Newtow1a Crime Take Up
 New Angle of Inquiry
Special to The Farmer

NewtoEyn. Jan. 2O-The local au- thorities and the state police are to- day endeavoring to ascertain whether ohl Corr the aged shoemaker who was killed in his lonely shop on the night of July 29 may have been the victim Of the gang that are alleged sto have murdered Commissioner Hu- bert Case in his store at Barkhamsted during the latter part of November. and in which one Bridgeport man " as involved.
 It was .tStlay learned that the state police have absolutely dropped the theory that Corr was killed with an axe, found near the body, but believe that he was first struck over the head with his own shoe hammer, and that tles subseluents blow may have been struck by another man who secured the axe as a weapon 1t is also un- derstpod that the state police believe tthe axe was not in it's accustomed place zn the coa1-bfn in the cellar. but 1 was found in the yard or on the ground floor of bhe building
 With this shift of opinion, the fact that someone known to Corr, who was able to go to the cellar to get the implement of murder, killed him, Athat the deed could have been done by robbers.
 It is further shown by those inves- tfgating' the new angles in the Corr mystery that Isaac Williams, and Rowe now held in the Case murder, were frequently upon railroads. and were engaged in just such robberies. TEne similarity. of location of the two buiadings, to railroads, both being in lonely spots, lends color to the the ory which the police authorities are now inqniring into with the utmost scru uzIny- Both, victims were struck upon the head
 No proof. is said to have been ad- ! duced to date that any of the men held at Winsted we're seen in the vi cinity at the time of the crime, but the investigation continues with the , greatest. care.

 CHOSEN T0 HEAD
 CHRIS UNION
Annual Meeting of Board of Directors Hears of Wide
 spread Activities

i ]
 George H. Edwards was Ee-elected head of the Bridgeport Christian un- ion mission at the annual meeting last evening"
 After prayer by Superintendent Simpson, the meeting was called to order by President George H. Ed- wards. Robert G MaI1ette as chair man reported for the nomaina min nating committee the names of George H. Edwards for president, Edward w. Harra1 for vice president, Egbert Marsh for treasurer, and Frank H. Fargo for secretary, also H. Bi Ter Till and c. ". Foote for auditors. The report was accepted and it was moved that the secretary cast one ballot for the list Of officers as read. This was done.
 It was then suggested that the su- perintendent read a portion of his re- port that was submitted two weeks ago at the corporation meeting. this largely for the benefit of the new present: George c. Edwards, H. B. Terri1I and Wm. Boyd Spencer. Such figures as the following show the magnitude of the work accom- plished at the Christian Union on Bank street: 45, ,609 meal tickets were given were sent to 3,19O odd jobs, S,S02 worked in the wood yard, 2,s92 pieces of wearing apparel were fur nished, and the attendance at the services for the year was 25,506.
 It being the annual meeting at which only officers car be elected no other business was transacted; how ever, the matter of raising funds to finish paying for the lot and the erec- ton of new building thereon was discussed, many of those present talk ing part This matter came up be- cause of the receipt of letter from MT Barber of New York, the cam paigp manager, in which he suggest ed that the effort be made in Fehru- ary.
 All were agreed that the building is a necessity and must come before very long, but that it must be post poned until business conditions are much improved.
 Great good has been accom- pIished by this institution in the nearly five years since its doors opened. Many of lJhe most responsible and busiest busi- ness men in the city. have given of their time. to serve on it's board Of directors. This sin itself argues strongly for it's worth Thousa nds have been helped and there are many happy homes in Bridgeport and elsewhere because a few men a little over fivessyears ago had a vision of " might #be accomplished if such a place as the Bridgeport Christian n Union were Started

 When inquiry was made at local steamship offices, the Manufacturers association and the various factories here, it was said that the scheme of getting foreign trade did not appeal to commercial houses in this. city.
 Secretary F'rederickaA. Bennett of the Manufacturers Association stated to a reporter for The Farmer that several of these expeditions had pre- vious1y been planned, but. were not successful. It has been reliably as certained from authorities upon South American trade that merchants in that country laugh at such expedf- tions, for the reason that they are not conducted along the lines of estab- Iished custom there, and credits of fered by American houses are not such as can be accepted. F
 It was the plan of industries here to have one representative for every group of ten factories subscribing to the agreement. Word received from Washington, however, showed that such a move would be in violation of therefore been temporarily abandon cd
