LAWYERS ASKED
 TO ASSIST MAYOR
Pending Adjustment of Tenement Controversies, Are Asked to Use
 Care in Issuing Eviction Writs.

Following conference with several lawyers this morning, Mayor Quigley determined to take a new step in his tenement house campaign and will shortly ask all lawyers in the city to desist from issuing summary process writs for the ejection of tenants from their homes unless the matter has been thoroughly investigated and it is obvious that the property owner is act ing in good faith.
 Pending the organization of the ten ement Investigating committee, Proba- ton Officer Edward C. Connolly has volunteered to investigate all instances where property owners are reported as raising the rents out of proportion. If this proves too great a task for one man to handle. Mr. Connolly will se- cure assistance until such time as the special committee of the mayor can take charge. For the present, all law yers will be asked to report to MT. Connolly such cases as they may nave where summary process is asked and he will investigate. This will not ap- ply however. where the acton or the tenant is such that request Tor eNlc- tion is in keeping with law and order.
 The special committee appointed bT the mayor consisting of William F. Atwood and Edward N, Stanley, rep resenting the banking interests: r. F.. McDonough. representing the lawyers: John Tomaszewsky, representing the Polish element; Angelo M. Paonessa. representing the Italian element; M. T. Kerwin, representing the labor inter ests: Earl I<isselbrack, of the War bu- reau. and Joseph F. Lamb and Ge2rsc Kimban, representing the manufaetur- ing interests will meet tomorrow night to organize. The meeting will be held in the mayors office at x o clock. According to the mayor, the sltua- tion which faces New Britain IS not so bad from the viewpoint of eNces- sive rent charges as it is from lack of suita and sufficient tenements.

MURDER CASES TO
 BE HEARD SATURDAY
Bullet That Terminated Feud of Long Standing Not Folnd-Ac-
 cUSed Not Worried.

Charged with murder of Frank Palmese, Erasmo and Joseph Par retti,. brothers, were presented in police court, this morning, before Judge James T. Mesllil. Prosecuting Attorney George w. >lett stated that, Attorney Noble F. Pierce, counsel for tho accused, was appearing before the board of pardons at Hartford, today, and has cases in the superior court this week and desired a further adjournment. Judge Meskill ordered that the case shall come up next Sat urday morning.
 Detective Sergeants A. C. Malone and Richardson, who are conducting the investigations for the police, are making progress in their work, but it is slow and difficult.
 As yet the bullet which penetrated Palmese's stomach, has not been found. If located it would be a big aid in establishing the guilt of the murderer. The police have a 32 cal ibre revolver, also a 3S calibre weapon. No sharp edged instrument that might have been used to inflict the half dozen or more slashes on the victims face has been found.
 The Parretti brothers were accom- pdllleu III court Dy Attorney MCDOn- ough, who was representing Judge Pierce, and Mrs. Erasmo Parretti. Mrs. Parretti still stoutly maintains her husband did not leave the house on the night of the murder. Judging from their appearance in court today they are not greatly worried over the onor1nity of the offepse charged against them. The efforts of the po- lice authorities to trap them into damaging admissions concerning the crime have been futile. A shrug of the shoulders is their only indication of feeling of the death bed identi- fication by the victim of the murder.
 The police hold the theory that a feud of long standing was the mo- tive for the crime but it is no easy matter to establish if, owing to the se-mouthed policy of the race of those involved.

WHO'S GOING TO PAY?
Various City Departments Exercised Over War Bureau Expenditure.

The recent decision to move the office of the war bureau to another section of the second floor of City hall will entail some expense for carpenter work, etc, since the pres ent office fixtures will have to be re- moved and new ones built at the other end of the corridor. Who is going to pay the bill is at present bothering several city departments.
 It is understood that the war bu- reau has stated that it will not as- sume the debt. The city hall com mission is likewise not disposed to pay the bill for fitting up an office for the war bureau. and the board of public works. which has been asked to assist in the construction work is not inclined to assume the debt.
