London, June 23.-(By Associated were arrested in the raids throughout London last night in connection with the assassination of Field Marshal Sir Henry Wilson, it was announced to- day in the house of commons by Aus ten Chamberlain.
 He stated that every step possible was being taken for the protection of
 life in Ireland and England, and in timated that discussion of Irish af- fairs would be held on Monday. Pre- mier Lloyd George, he stated. was now holding conference on all mat ters connected with the assassination of Marshal Wilson.
 James O'Brien and James Connolly, who were arrested directly after the shooting, were arraigned in the West minister police court and charged with murder They were remanded for one week by Magistrate Cecil Chapman.
 Long before the court opened, great crowd assembled in front of the courthouse, but owing to the limited accommodations the police vigorously excluded the general public, only al lowing those connected with the case and the newspapermen to enter
 The accused men were taken to the courtroom in taxicab and under strong guard from the Gerald Road police station. Two officers rode in side and one with the driver. All were fully armed and alert, In the there were a number of plain clothes officers who have been with the Sim Fein outrages in Lon don. AS the cab abruptly pulled up at the courthouse the door was opened and the accused were hustled into the 
 The court proceedings lasted only a few minutes.
 The prisoners were charged with the murder of Field Marshal Wilson. and the attempted murder of Con stables March and Saver and Alex ander Clark, a chauffeur
 The Duke of Connaught. it was learned, will suggest to King George that Field Marshal Wilson be given a national funeral and his body buried in St. Paul's, where other famous British soldiers lie.
 Lady Wilson, who is hearthroken | over her loss, has not left the body of | her husband since the crime.
 "The tragedy and lnhumanity of 1t | all," she exclaimed to friends today | is that he should have been murder ad by two of his countrymen."
 Sir Henry Wilson will probably be buried in his field marshal's uniform.
 The woman arrested during last nights police raid in connection with | he assassination was still in GUS .ody this afternoon, but all the others lad been released.
 The Ulster members of the house ,f commons met this forenoon and passed a resolution expressing their lorror at the murder.

More Than TwO-thirds of Amount Sought Is Yet to
 Be Raised, However
Total Today ...,.....

The Fresh Air fund is growing as you probably have already noted. There are several reasons for it, one being the fact that we have added to today's list the total amount that has been contributed by citizens of New Britain direct to the finance committee of the farm. Most of this has been secured by personal solici- tation, but the aggregate will give evidence aplenty that the farm pro- ject is meeting with general approval and support. Also. to today's total we have been able to add substan- tial gift from the Girls club at the L. F. S c. plant with others, just and organizations.
 The sum of s1,217 is of course by no means enough. it is not one third as much as will be required to make sure the entertainment at the Fresh Air camp in Burlington of 300 chil- dren throughout the summer. The average cost, per child, is S5 a week, each one staying two weeks. Conse auently it will take about s3o0o to board the estimated number of chill dren. Inasmuch as a new house has been opened up this year to accom- modate the largest number possible, there are equipment and improvement costs of about a s1,o00. But s5.000 is a small amount for a city of 60,o0O people to raise by popular subscrip tion, ten cents from each one of our inhabitants would more tan do it. and we believe that the cause is worthy e@oueh for everyone to feel justified in subscribing
 Health and happiness both are inn proved among the youngsters who have had little of either. There is no greater appeal than the child. un- less it be the child whose body is not as strong as it should be and whose

notified the local police that Stalk was wanted for desertion. Early on Wednesday evening, Chief Detective Sergeant William c. Hart took him into custody on Main street. This morning Sergeant McCue, with Stalk in custody, started back at 6:59 o'clock for the Brooklyn Navy Yard. The train in which the prisoner was riding is one of the fast express trains out of New Haven, and does not stop at any station between that city and New York. It is therefore believed that the prisoner took a desperate chance in making his getaway. Ser geant McCue telegraphed that he was returning at once to this city.
