Closed Every Window, Max ing Room Alright, and
 Turned On Jet.

Hartford, March S.-Newe11 B. Holmes, a Junior at Trinity college, was found dead in room IT, Jarvis hall, at the college, just before o'clock this morning. The room was filled with gas and Medical Examiner Philip D. Bunce said 1t was a case sof suicide. Holmes came here from Norwich and was 20 years old.
 Holmes was an upper class man in the D. K. F. fraternity and it is the custom to have freshmen wake .he older members living in Jarvis hall, a college dormftory, each mofning. AS the door was opened the younger men were driven back by a flood of il1urn- mating gas.
 Dr. H. O.. Swan was summoned and after assisting in trying to revive the body, applied tests and decided death had occurred. An examination of his room showed that he had closed every window and door in his room before retiring, making 1t as airtight as pos sidbls, IA gas jet had been turned on full borce. His friends think that overwork affected his mind.
 Until he entered Trinity Holmes lived in Norwich. He is the son of Mir. and Mrs, EdwaTd Holmes of that city but later Mrs. Holmes has been living in this city,

MYSTERY OVER
 ACCIDENT" TO
 A. s. B0DWELL
Crane Employe Found In jured and Insensible, Sus-
 picision Is Aroused.

Mystery surrounds the finding of the unconscious form of Albert c. Bod we'll, 35 years, who holds a responsi- ble position with the Crane Co.,, in Room s. in Hartman's hotel, Middle street, this morning. Bodwell, when discovered was bleeding profusely from the nose and severe gash on his forehead and Lieut.. Detective James Ramsey and Detective Seery are .at- tempting to ascertain just how he came to be injured.
 At 9:15 this morning, Elizabeth Patrick, a maid in the hotel, heard groans in Bodwelps room. Looking through a crack in the door she saw Bodwell, attired only in his night gown, stretched full length on the floor, his head under the bureau. The door was locked from the inside and she was unable to open it with pass key.
 James Jorgenson, an attache of the hostelry,, was summoned and he broke the lock. Efforts to restore Bodwel] to consciousness were in vain and Dr. c. V. Calvin, the new physician at the emergency hospital, who assumed his duties this morning, went to the scene with Alexander McPherson
 The circumstances were of such a suspicious character that the surgeon ordered the room locked until the arrival of the police and Bodwell was removed to St. Vincent's hospital, where his condition is reported as critical. The police who have not finished their investigations are in- clined to the belief that Bodwell, overcome by uraemia, from which he is suffering, fell to the floor, striking his head on a trunk and splitting it. It is thought he struck squarely on his face when he hit the floor, causing his nose to bleed.

 This statement was made yesterday by John A. Leonard, president of the fire board. Continuing, President Leonard said:
 "If that policeman said what he IS reported to have said, he ought to be in jail. If anything of the kind was said as 8 joke the man who said It isn't fit to be a police officer"
 The president of the fire board was discussing the rumor that on the night that Supreme Court Justice George w. Wheeler spoke to the mill- tary census workers in the High school auditorium, a policeman is alleged to have said if he had been present and had his gun with him he would have taken a shot at the judge. The latter severely criticised the ac- ton of Germany in her U-boat war fare on merchant ships.
 The statement, it is alleged, was made in No. engine house in Bar mum avenue. The policeman who is reported to have made it had aspira-

CHURCHILL HELD RESPONSIBLE IN STRAITS F|ASCO British, Investigators Offer Report on Expedition to
 Dardanelles. WAR COUNCIL ALSO RAPED FOR STAND Free Discussion of Proposi- tior Not Sought, Is
 Probers' Report.

London, March 8.-The Dardanelles expedition, as far as Great Britain was concerned, was undertaken on the in- itiative of Col. Winston Spencer alty, according to a majority of the commission appointed to inquire into the responsibility for the expedition which was issued today. The report summarizes the conclusions reached as follows:
 '"The question of attacking the Dar- danellles was, on the initiative of MT. Churchill, brought under consideration of the war council on Nov. 15, 1914, as the ideal method of defending Egypt. It may reasonably be assumed that, inasmuch as all the authorities concerned were prirna facie in favor of a. joint military rather than a pure Iy naval attack, such an attack, if un- dertaken, at all, would have been of the former rather than of the latter led to modification of the program. A communication from the Russian government of Jan. 2 introduced a fresh element into the case. The Brit ish government considered that som e. thing must be done in response to it and in this connection the question of attacking the Dardanelles was again raised.

TROLLEY SERVICE WESTWARD STILL
 IRkS COMMUTERS
Fairfield, Southport and Westport Residents Held
 Up By Ash Greek Cars.

Although they are almost unani- nous in wanting better trolley ser vice, residents of Fairfield between the Gould Homestead and Benson's corner are not in favor of a plan to have the cars branch off at Gould Homestead, and travel to Eliot street across what is now swamp land.
 l.. H. Serre, one of the residents of that neighborhood, said today this swamp land could never be built up with residences as it would be affected by the changes in the tides, making that section not only unsanitary but unhealthy as well
 "If the people to the west of Ben sons corner object to having trolleys run in front of their residences said Mr. Serre, I would suggest that cars be run to Benson's corner, accommo- dating the people between it and the Gould Homestead, then turn to the right to Eliot street and then west ward Of course this would make a rather sharp turn at Benson's corner, but running tracks this way would ac- commodate not only the people on the Turnpike, but the residents from the corner to Eliot street and westward to the center or Fd1rneld.
 '"The suggestion of running cars back of the Gould Homestead, across the swamp that exists there, if adopt ed, will not give service to any of the people between Gould Homestead and the corner of Eliot street and Benson road as the swamp over which the trolley must cross is in such condition that even if bottom could be found on which to construct a roadbed, the value of the property for building purposes would never increase owing to the impractibility of constructing dwellings. I have personally made soundings there and have found that there is always water, affected by the rise and fall of the tides"
 Another source of complaint is the fact that cars bound for Fairfield, Southport and Westport are held up in the rush hours by Ash Creek cars, which must make frequent stops to drop and take on passengers. MT. Serre suggests that the Ash Creek cars be sidetracked at one of the crossovers between Bridgeport center and the creek to allow the suburban cars to travel express.
 Presidents of these towns are de- layed as much as 5 and 20 minutes getting home in the evening because they are held up by Ash Creek cars. Sidetracking the Ash Creek cars would eliminate this delay and the loss of time to Bridgeport residents would be no more than a minute or two.
 "It is 12 miles from Bridgeport to Westport, four miles to Picketts switch. It takes a car half an hour, according to the running time to make the switch from Bridgeport It takes the same time to make twice that distance in going to Westport from the switch. Hence, the loss of time is between Bridgeport center and Fairfield center"

 President John c. Stanley of the police board refused today to divulge the name of the man reported to have made the threat against Justice Wheeler. He said his investigation showed that something entirely diff ferent than the statement credited to the policeman had been said. He said he would issue a public statement in a few days which will clear up the matter entirely.

 Senator Lewis, Democratic whip, will introduce resolution today de- c1aring 1t to be the sense of the Senate that the President ''by virtue of the power of his office," has the right to protect commerce to foreign nations equally with commerce between the states.
 The resolution is not regarded as having effect except as an expression of the sentiment of the Senate, if it is adopted.
 The resolution further declares the Presidents authority is not related to the power to declare war, but is de- rived from his right as head civil off, cer of the federal government to exc cute the law fostering commerce.

AGED WOMAN IS
 OVERCOME BY GAS

Accidentally turning on one of the jets in the gas range, in the kitchen of her home. 5S5 Park avenue, while ironing this morning, Mrs. Margaret O'Donnell, a woman past 70 years of age, fatigted by her labors went to her chamber in the apartment to lie down for a brief period.
 The escaping fumes quickly filled the five rooms of her home and on the arrival of a young woman who boards with Mrs. O'Donnell. and was returning from work to her dinner, the woman was found to be uncon- scious. The timely arrival of the girl no doubt prevented an explosion and fire that would have wrecked the house, as one of the burners of the gas stove was fully lighted and every room of the apartment filled with the deadly fumes.
 Dr. s. l. Aranki. of the emergency hospital was called to the scene and he took the unconscious woman to St. Vincent's hospital Her condition is reported at the institution as very serious owing to her advanced years.

GUN T0TERS TO
 BE RELIEVED OF
 SHOOTING IRONS
Police Will Make Round of Drinking Places to
 "Frisk" Frequenters.

A crusade against gun toters, which will result in detectives visiting sa- looms every Saturday evening and "frisking' habitues, has been instituted by the police. This step has been decided upon as a result of too fre- quent shootings in the city and the habit among certain element of car- rying guns, which they pull on the slightest provocation.
 Last Saturday night, a half dozen detectives visited saloons in the vicin- ity of Water street and the West End following shooting in a barroom, ar rested four men who in the course of the search for the man who dis charged the weapon. were found in barrooms, with guns in their pock- cts.
 Judge Frank Wilder complimented the detectives in court and meted out stiff sentences to the offenders, an- nouncing that in the future, he would make it a rule never to suspend Judgment in cases of a like kind. The search of the detectives bearing such fruit, it has been decided to continue the practice of "frisking" men be- lieved to be carrying guns.

Gov. Holcomb sent to the senate a communication as follows: ''To the Honorable General Assem- bly: I am pleased to state that the cen sus of resources in men and material of the state of Connecticut, which your honorable body authorized to be taken, is nearly completed. I am sat isfed that you did not over estimate the value to the state of such a cen- sus and that the information thereby furnished will be highly useful to the state in many ways and will be es- pecially valuable in organizing the re- sources of the state in responding to whatever call the president may make upon this state under conditions which the existing international com plications may develop.
 "The implied powers of the gover- nor to respond to any such call are necessarily wide, but 1t seems to me to be very desirable that in executing such duties as may be created the governor should be supported by di- rection of the general assembly such as is expressed in the accompanying bill for a public act and I therefore respectfully request the passage of such an act.

Washington, March S.-1ndicat1ons accumulated today that President Will son is likely to act at any time in the situation caused by Germany's an- nouncement of ruthless submarine warfare. Although the president was kept in bed by cold, it was said that he was still considering the subject. Whether the president will act this week or wait until the senate has had an opportunity to revise its rules Is a matter of conjecture.
 MT. Wilson has been advised that he has sufficient power to arm American merchantmen without waiting for ac- ton by congress and some officials be- Leve he will act on this advice forth with.
 On the other hand, a strong senti- ment undoubtedly exisis in the admin istration for the president to take ac- tion along the line of calling an extra session of congress to meet in the very near future.
 Reports given to the President agree that the Senate rules will be revised quickly, so that if an extra session of Congress is called it would be pos

ADMIT PLOT
 TO HOLD UP MERCHANTS
Three West End Youths, Captured By Police ,on Eve of Intended Burglary, Found Armed With Blackjacks and Guns.
Confess Robbery of One Store = Police Declare Highwaymen Are Able to Pick Cunning Locks With Carving Knife.

Three desperate West End youths, gun toters and black jack wielders, who admit they planned to waylay Louis Ban nay, proprietor of restaurant at 1914 State street and kill him, if it was necessary to steal his store receipts, were ar rested Yesterday by Detective Thomas Kane. They confess ed to the police that they were about to enter upon campaign of robbery which would have rivalled the career of the gun men who killed Nathan Garon, when their plans were nipped iH the bud by their arrest.
 The three youths, Albert Kapoz, of 978 Wordin avenue; Gazo Szabo, of 400 Bostwick avenue, and Albert Vinica, of 256 Hancock avenue. demonstrated, the police say. that they can pick any Yale lock, with a steel table knife, which they had filed to razor edge thinness.
 They admit they used this means to enter the store of Ralph P. Wood hull, confectioner, at 1241 State street, where they obtained $49 from the cash register, which has been robbed numerous times. Szanbo re- lated that he intended going to work for a State street grocer to "get the lay of the place." then rob it with his companions and leave town after they had completed a few other jobs.
 WoodhuE's place adjoins the West End theatre. Bannay's restaurant is situated just across the street. Last Saturday. armed with blackjacks and guns, they laid in wait for Bannay after robbing Woodhul1's store. Ban nay lives a block below his restaur- ant and they expected to overtake him An his way home with the days cash receipts.
 In some manner, they told the po- lice. they missed him and decided they would wait until next Saturday. This morning before Judge Frank Wilder the details of the case did not come out in the testimony but Szalbo was sent to the Connecticut Reform school and in view of the grave alle- cations against the other two youths, their cases were continued until to- morrow morning for disposition.
 From statements made by Szabo the police are inclined to think he was the leader of the trio. He showed the police how, by slipping the knife fyround for the r,11rpoae hetween the base of a lock and the door to which 1t was fastened they could open it. If the lock was so tightly secured against the wood that the thin blade could not be pushed under it. they would manage to loosen the lock to sufficient degree to pick 1t.
 1. The police found blackjacks and kuns in the prisoners pockets.
