41ST DAY OF FAST
Condition Reported Unchanged - No
News About Acceptance or Rejec-
tion of Food - Sister Says He Is
Nearly as Bad as Yesterday.

DUBLIN, Sept 22.-County Council
lor Lynch. a prominent Sim Feiner,
was shot dead early today in his hotel
apartment in the heart of Dublin. His
assailants are alleged to have been
"black and TAM police, such as raided
Balbriggan yesterday, in reprisal for
the shooting of two policemen. The
murder took place at O'Clock this
morning. Uniformed men entered the
Royal Exchange hotel, went straight
to Lynch s room and shot him dead.
Various versions of the affair leave
it surrounded with mystery. 1t ap-
pears, however, that at o'clock after
violent knocking on the door of the ho-
tel which is situated near the castle,
the porter admitted dozen men who
said they belonged to the militia. They
searched the register, discovered the
name they wanted and rushed upstairs,
leaving some of their number to guard
the porter with revolvers. After five
minutes had elapsed all the men left
the porter remaining in ignorance of
what had occurred, believing it to be
bne of the usual raids for arms.
Fifteen minutes later the police ar
rived stating they had been instructed
by the military to take charge of the
body in room No. 6, which proved to
be that of John Lynch, member of
the Limerick County council and al
legged to be judge of a Sim Fein
court.
The police today were still guarding
the room 10 which no one was admitted,
while the streets near by were full of
excited crowds and a detachment of the
military was parading outside the hotel.

Paid Under Protest on AS
sessment ON Pulp
Wood Logs.
BRATTLEBORO LOSES
BUT WILL APPEAL
Amount Involved Is S4s4.50 and Inter
est - Plaintiff Contended that Logs
Were Necessarily Held Up While in
Interstate Commerce.


Judgment for the ChampIain Realty
Co. to recover $484.50 and interest
thereon from Nov "a, 1919, to Sept.
u, 1920, was entered with the county
clerk today in the case of the Cham
plain Realty Co. against the town of
Brattleboro, which was tried at the
last April term of the Windham
county court, Judge Zed s. Stanton
presiding. This was the amount of
taxes assessed by the town against the
plaintiff on the grand list of 1919 and
which the plaintiff paid under protest.
The case win be appealed by the town
to the supreme court. Harvey, Maur-
ice, Whitney &. Fits are counsel for
the plaintiff and Attorney A. p. Car :
penter for the town.
At the April term the court over
ruled the defendant S motion for
trial by jury, which it claimed as a
constitutional right, because the mo-
tion was not made until the time for
setting causes for trial at that term
had expired. Exceptions were granted
the defendant. On account of the
Connecticut river bridge going out and
the extra work thereby imposed on the
town counsel the date for setting the
case for trial by jury slipped by.
In the winter of 1913 and 1919 the
Realty Co. cut pulp wood in Jamaica,
Stratton and Londonderry in Windham
county and Winhan in Bennington
county. 1t was four feet long and was
-. IL L \ i
tributaries to be foated down into the
Connecticut and to its destination at
the company s bolting and rossing mill
on the Hinsdale side of the river, three
miles below Brattleboro, as had been
done in 1917 and 1918.
At the mill the wood was held by a
single log boom. When the Connecti-
cut was high and the current swift
the boom would not always hold, so
the plaintiffs maintain a boom near
the mouth of West river, in Brattle-
boro, to control the pulp wood logs
when the water is too high to safely
turn them into the Connecticut.
In the winter of 1913 and 1919 the
plaintiff puts its winter 3 cut into West
river, beginning March 25, 1919, about
10000 cords in all, and because of high
water placed its boom at the mouth of
the river to hold the logs until the
Connecticut was safe, and not for any
other purpose.
On March IS, 1919, the West river
boom broke, allowing some of the wood
to go into the Connecticut and some
on to the Retreat meadow. The Con.
nccticut was high and contained debris
and ice, and the current was swift so
