at the government arsenals in the
county, and the charges of misman-
agement in connection with the

morning from George Nandermark,
who lives near the reformatory, that
a man was lying in his yard suffer-
ing from decorations on both wrists
and throat. officer Keating was sent
to the spot with the ambulance and
removed the man to the Perth Am
boy hospital.
Efforts on the part of the officer
to learn the mans street address in
Chicago or the names of relatives or
friends were friutless. Upon arrival
in the hospital. DR.. Benjamin Slobo-
diem. was called and found that the
mans right wrist had been severely
cut with either knife or razor.
The left wrist had also been cut as
was his throat. The man had lost
a. great amount of blood as the re-
suit of his wrists being lacerated
and was in a weak condition when
admitted.
| Mitchell persisted in maintaining
silence regarding his condition de-
spite the efforts made to learn from
him the manner in which he was
cut. The Woodbridge police. work
ing on the theory that he was at
tackled, are investigating the case
Michell's unwillingness to discuss the
case has led the police TO believe
that the case is an unusual one ana
worthy of investigation

ACTION
BY ALDERMEN n
Sewer Outlets Now in DepIor-
able Condition, Alderman
at-Large Calvin Says

Probably the most important mat
ter to come up for consideration at
the committee meeting of the Board
of Aldermen tonight will be the
question of improving the sewers
where they enter into the river and
sound. During the inspection trip OF
the aldermen this week to decide
upon a suitable location for bath
ing beach, Alderman at Large Gal
vim said today the sewers at the
street ends We're found to be in de-
plorable shape. They must be
taken care of, he asserted.
In some places it was found that
wrecks OF old vessels are stopping
up the sewers so that the water and
sewerage is forced to run cut of the
overflow instead of the end of the
pipe. At almost all street ends, II
was found the sewers are out of the
water at mean low tide and the sew
erage is washed up on the shore
front instead of being carried away
by the flow of the water at high
tide.
At tonight's meeting the alder
men will endeavor to find ways ane
means to extend the ends OF the sew
ers out into the river and soun'
