OF the list in the matter Of utilizing
the executive power to grant Glenn

"Taft was a merciful President. but

applications as II he were on the
bench" an official OF the Department
Of Justice said in discussing pardon

Wilson Is not Influenced as much by
the law as by the heart. and In this
way he Is much like Lincoln and Nc
Kinley.
Roosevelt pardoncd fewer criminals
and reversed more recomme ndations OF
the Department Of Justice than any
President In recent wears. He believed

 "On the terrain to the west of the Yser Canal conquered by us yesterday and the day before, the Germans left about 2,O00 dead and great num- Ter of rifles.
 During the course or the engage ments of yesterday we made some further progress.
 ITO the east of the canal we have consolidated the positions recently taken by us.
 German Attack Repulsed.
 During the night the Germans undertook a particularly violent counter attack preceding this action by a bombardment with artillery and oomb throwers. They were repulsed.
 In the region to the north of Notre Dame De Lorrette, on the road from Ajx-Noulette, to Souchez, we repulsed completely by our fire two other Ger man counter attacks Allies Capture Houses.
 As for ourselves we captured as result of night advance a group Of houses near the cemetery of Ab- lain. All along the front to the north of Arras the artillery fighting is con- tinuing by day and night. The Germans have bombarded Arras with particular ferocity. -s.s

GENERAL ASSEMBLY
 ADJOURNS SINE DIE
Sessien Ends Three Weeks Before
 Constitutional Limitation.

Hartford, May 1S.-T The legislative session of 1915 was adjourned sine die this afternoon in the manner pre- scribed by the constitution. The sen ate and house of representatives had a joint session in the shamber of the house and received Governor Marcus Il. Holcomb( who spoke briefly in a congratulatory vein, laying emphasis upon the fact that this session ends three weeks before the constitutional limitation, that it was the shortest session in recent years and. that it's accom- plishments were attained through constant and nard work. High Sheriff Edward Dewey made the proclamation and Secretary of State Charles D. Burnes, declared the January session at an end without day with the drop of the speakers gavel.
 This is the shortest session since the biennial sittings began although that of 1887 adjourned finally on May 19. Governor Holcomb up to the present time has signed 261 public acts, and 308 special acts, submitted one mes sage and one veto, but this does not represent the sum total of legislation, as a considerable number of bills have not yet reached the executive after engrossment. It is not believed there will be any pocket vetoes, as was the case two years ago, when Govern or Baldwin failed to sign . number of measures which reached him af- ter the session adjourned. The pres ent generally assembly makes the unique record for itself of having dis posed of every measure placed be-, fore it. Two years ago about 300 bills were left over and found lodge- ment in the office of secretary of state. None of these resurrected this session.

 Asked what, in his opinieiE is the matter with the woman. He replied that he did not know only in a general way but he did not think the case is deserving of much notoriety. Not so much from what MT. Curtis did say as from what he did not say it is thought that the family considers the young woman little mentally unbalanced.
 Although it is reported that MT. Sawtelle is still a guest at his sisters home here, Mrs. Curtis denies it. She emphatically states that he is not at her home and that the first she knew of the affair was when informed of it this morning.
