Mayor Quigley voiced word of dis
approval to the resolution. He ex-
planned that action by the council
| meant only a reference Of the resolu-
ton to the board of finance and taxa
ton, but MIR. Landers insisted that
the council was giving its sanction to
the idea. Mr.. Curtis finally moved
to amend that the resolution be re-
ferred without recommendation and
Mr.. Landers seconded the motion and
withdrew his motion for an aye and
nay vote.
Skating Pond Popular.
A resolution calling for an appro-
priation of $1,000 to build a dam in
Stanley park for the purpose Of Gre
atlng a skating pond caused a lot of
debate, but the council was in SYM
pathy with the idea after some ex-
PLANTATION and debate. The resolu
ton called for the erection Of the
dam by the park commission and that
the money appropriated be raised
either by taxation or transferred
from some other department, the
matter being referred to the board
of finance and taxation. Mr.. Landers
sponsored the resolution, which orig
inally called for an appropriation of
$4,000, but was finally amended to
$500 when City Engineer Hall .es-
timated that this sum would cover
the cost. Mr.. Landers explained that
the resolution met the approval Of
the park commissioners and the
mayor. It is simply question
whether the board Of finance and
taxation can find a means of provid-
The pond will provide a safe skating
place this winter for the people of
the city
Mr.. Curtis thought the action of the
resolution a little too speedy, saying
that the council proposed to spend
the money before it knew where it
was coming from. He thought the
board Of finance and taxation should
decide this question. Mr.. Landers
explained that Judge B. r. Gaffney
drew the resolution and he is a mem
Der Of the board. Mr.. Landers called
upon E. o. Kilbourne, who was pres
ent, to explain what was desired.
Mr.. Kilbourne told the council about
the old skating pond in the park and
about the thousands of people who
enjoyed skating there until the old
dam broke. Since that time the agi-
tation for new pond has been in
sstent, and at the meeting of the
Parents and Teachers association Of
the Stanley school on Tuesday eve
ming a resolution was unanimously
passed favoring the proposed action.
Councilman McDonough spoke in ia
vor of the proposition. At the re-
quest of Mr.. Curtis Engineer Hall
told the council that the original es-
innate was placed at $1,000. Since
then labor has Increased in cost. He
thought $500 would cover the cost
of building a dam. The dam would
consist Of a concrete core wall COW
cred with earth the wall being locked
in the old embankment. Mr. Curtis
wanted to know If the board of pub
lie works would build it and whether
it is proposed to employ city labor
or secure bids from contractors. Mr..
Hall said the matter was in the
| hands of the park commissioners, he
| being called upon to supervise the
work.
Mr.. Curtis said he didn't believe in

mitted no tangible evidence that
could warrant an investigation. The
chief stated, however, that he would
stand for no trust and furthermore
that he would gladly listen to sug-
gestions that would tend to better the
sport here. The Reina incident Is now
closed, it is believed.

LOSES HIS SAVINGS.
KensingtOn Man Hard Hit by Loss of
 Money.

Uric Lenoie of Kensington is mourning the loss of a tobacco pouch containing S46 in bills and coin that mysteriously disappeared from one of his pockets last night as he was walking along Main street, between Lafayette and Church streets. A re- port was made immediately after wards at police headquarters but no trace of the money has been found. The authorities believe that it is the work of pickpockets who have been successfully working" in other cities of the state and dropped off in New Britain on their way to or from Hart ford.
 Lenoie feels the loss keenly. He recently lost his wife by death and the $46 was money he had saved to pay her expenses at a hospital.

nation, helpful TO the administra-
tion in guiding its future course to-
ward Mexico, was presented today
to Secretary of War Baker by Chief
of Staff Scott.
He informed him that. while Gen.
Obregon, at FL Paso, had refused
to put down Mexican cooperation
terms in black and white, he offered
assistance that will be helpful, pro-
vided there are no outbreaks among
detached Carranzista garrisons.
His report tended to confirm the
optimism OF the past few days.
though he included in It the opin-
ions of many Eel Pasoans that a
general housecleaning by the Unit
ed States within Mexico will be
necessary ultimately.
! Detaiis OF Gen. Pershing's redis
position OF troops south Of Columbus
showed that the American expedi'
tion is in position to make rapid
cleanup OF potential border raiders.
Stories that the American lines
are threatened by Carranzistas were
doubted by army men. The 1,500
Carranzistas below the Big Bend
are there by express agreement to
assist in rounding up the Boquillas
and Glenn Strings raiders
Gen. Scott is in very optimistic
frame of mind" said Secretary
Baker after his brief conference
with his chief OF staff. "He seems
to think a favorable situation has
been created"
The war department was without
confirmation regarding reported
raids or attempted raids.

case on the theory that Orpet gave
Marian cyanide of potassium, pre-
tending to her that IL was something
else. Marian was Is. She and
young Orpet had been friends since
