Bill For Support of
Schaghicoke Indians
Gets Little Attention

Hartford, March 8"A bill making
an appropriation for the Schagicoke
Indians, the last tribe Of Connecticut
Indians in existence, was scheduled
to have been heard yesterday afternoon
before the committee on cities and
boroughs but no persons appeared
either in favor or against the bill.
The Schagticoe Indians have their
reservation in a wooded section Of
the town Of Kent and their only
means of existing comes from an in
vestment fund of about $1,000 and
what they can make on the products
Of the land they occupy. The state
at present has to care for the sick
Indians and the bill asks for an an
nual appropriation of 5000 to aid the
Indians in caring for themselves.
i The bill asking for an appropria-
ton of $4,000 a year for the work
of suppressing the gypsy and brown
tail months to be done during the
next two years was heard by the
committee. An appropriation Of $685.
900 was granted two years ago for
this work. 1t was said at the hearing
that the refusal to grant the appro-
priation would mean stat-wide men
ace by these pests and that it would
cost the state 100000 two years
from now to gain control Of the moths

SALOONKEEPERS HEARD
BY EXCISE COMMITTEE

Hartford, March 8.-Friction in the
committee yesterday arose over the
bill that would prohibit remonstrants
who live over 500 feet from saloons
from demonstrating when application
is made for licenses. One man said
that he knows of people coming clear
from Wethersfeld to appear against
the application of a Hartford saloon
Fred w. Orr Of New Haven, secre-
tary of the New England Brewers
Association; Frank P. Quinn Of New
Haven, president of the State Retail
Liquor Dealers Association, and Will
liam Eagan, a lawyer Of this city, ap-
peared for the bill. They argued that
the ncighbors of a saloon know more
about it's qualities, good and bad,
than people who live farther away.
They said that business concerns near
saloons rarely objected to applica-
tons for licenses. James Nance Of
this city also appeared in favor Of
the bill. The liquor men inferred that
the prohibitiOnists caused their repre-
sentatives to demonstrate against
saloons when none Of them lived near
them or were affected by their trade
The prohibition interests were rep.
resented by H. H. Spooner Of Kens-
ington, secretary of the state tenn
perance federation; Walter H. Lam
phear of New Haven, and Emil l.. G..
Hohenthal Of Manchester, chairman
Of the prohibition state central COM
mittee. Mr.. Spooner said that the
bill would take away the right of
persons, who live near enough to
saloons to be affected by the inebri-
ates that comeefrom them, to protest
against them.
Druggists from all parts of the
state appeared in favor Of the bill
that would permit them to sell alcohol
without doctors prescriptions in no.
license towns. They related many
cases in which hardships had been
worked on people, who needed alco-
hol, by the present laws. Mr.. Spooner
warned the committee to go slowly
in trusting druggists in no-license
towns to give out alcohol freely, as 1t
might be mixed into other drinks.
Representative G. J. Martin of West
Haven appeared in favor of the bill
to regulate clubs and societies that
serve liquor to their members. He
was supported by the prohibitionists
mentioned above, and by Chancellor
John G.. Murray, representing Bishop
John J. Milan of the diocese of Hart
ford, who also appeared in favor Of

But he remembered his play room and
just where he had kept his rocking

His foster mother had kept the basket

with its contents of bedding and cloth

inspection.
By means Of these articles Frank sue

great deal of searching. The basket
was of certain make, and a bill was
found for its purchase more than twen-

some OF the clothing was converted
into proof. Sufficient evidence was
thus collected to enable the state to
turn over the estate to Frank, and he
became very rich.
