.StrahordPolice Get Three Men

After a careful investigation by the members of the local police depart ment 1t has been determined that the three men arrested here early this morning are not connected with the attempt at robbery of the home of the president of the Ansonia bank in An sonia on Saturday night. The men were erraigned in the City court this morning and their cases were con tinued until Wednesday.
 The three men were taken into cus- tody early this morning after their actions had aroused the suspicion of the police. On their person was found full kit of burgler tools and at the time of their arrest it was thought that they were implicated in the Ansonia affair. Since that time though they have confessed their real purpose for being in Stratford and with their confession the local police believe they will soon be able to clear up the large traffic in drugs which has been going on in this state for some time past.

'BedriddenMan Shot Stepfather
N o r W a l k .Oysterman Kil1ed-Wilson Guar reled Over Building of Fire With Wife.

Norwalk, Conn, April 4O- James Wilson, 47, colored, an oyster opener, who has won many prizes for his speed at opening bivalves, was shot and killed by his stepson, Robert Thompson, 20, at their home, 37 Raymond street, at 6 o'clock this morning.
 Thompson, who is bedridden with tuberculosis, says he shot Wilson while the latter was beating and chok- ing his wife, following a quarrel over the building of a fire.
 CrawIed Back To Bed.
 The shooting was done with a .3S calibre Colt revolver. After the shooting Thompson craw1ed back into bed and was found there when the police arrived. He was taken to po- lice headquarters and held without bonds.
 According to the police, Wilson and his wife quarreI1ed over building a fire in the home. He seized her by the hair. threw her on the floor and was choking her, the police say, when Thompson got up and shot him. Both Wilson and his wife had been prev lously married and each had two chill dren by a former marriage.

Heating Will
 HonorChecks
 for orHygienists
Auditor Relies Upon Cornell's Opinion-In- junction May Prevent Payment.
Upon

Just the point where the dental
 clinic contest will go to the courts has
 been in doubt, but City Auditor Keat-
 ing may have precipitated the Htiga-
 tion.
 He vii honor checks of the Board
 of Health drawn to pay dental hygien-
 ists, relying upon the opinion of City
 Attorney John A. Cornell. Cornell says that the Board of Ap-
 poritionmert appropriated to dental
 clinic, instead of to dental hygiene.
 that this makes the appropriation
 illegal, that the money is therefore un-
 appropriated, that the aldermen may
 therefore appropriate 1t.
 The aldermen have appropriated it
 to the Board of Health. $35,000 in
 fact, has been turned into $75,000 on
 paper.
 It is probable that somebody will ask for an injunction to prevent tho
 payment of any money on the city attorneys opinion.
 Replying to your letter of April 9th, you have submitted to me for opin- ion, the following question: Do you consider the action of the Common Council at it's meeting of the 3rd inst. legal, in declaring the ap- proriation of S35,250 made by the Board of AppOrt1Onment and Taxation to the Board of Education for Dem tai Clinic, illegal, and void, and in transferring said sum, as unapproprt- ated revenue, to the Board of Health for Dental Clinic?''
 In reply would state that 1t has been my contention that an appro- priation to the Board of Education for the purpose of conducting den- tai clinic as contra distinguished from an appropriation for the purpose of retaining dental hygienists, and that an appropriation made for an illegal purpose is void, and being void may be used for some other properly des- | ignated purpose.
 appreciate that the controversy concerning this matter is one where the lines of demarcation have not been clearly stated by any precedent in Connecticut. Authorities in other states, however, seem to sustain the view taken above.
 In so far the the Common Coun- ] ell intended, by the resolution in question, to reappropr1ate funds which have been appropriated in an 1 illegal manner I believe the Common l Council was within its rights. and | shall hold to that opinion unless and
 until a. proper court shall otherwise
 decide.
 My recent inquiry to you, as I know you will appreciate, was designed to
 make clear your position in the mat 1 ter as City Auditor, so that in the by one side or the other we may all understand exactly what the situation is in every respect that may have a YYpnT3 the ultimate daCisiOn. .

Harold J. Ford
 Succeeds Murphy

The first change in the personnel of the timekeepers employed by the Charities Department was made to- day when Garry Murphy who has been ttmekeeper at the East Main street extension job for some time was re- neved of his position.

It Is ex- pected that many more will come be- fore the week Is out. Clerks en- ployed in the Relief department are anxiously awaiting news from the supertntendent's office as many of them expect to be relieved of their positions in favor of Democratic ap- pointees.
 Murphy, 1t Is understood at the Well fare Building is an unemployed man and did not obtain the ttmekeeping position through any political influ- ence. He Is considered among the outside poor and 1t Is said that he will have to be placed by the depart ment at some work. He has 8 wife and two children to support.

 The Board of Education as repre- scented at the joint meeting last Sat urday night attempted to answer all questions and to state it's position CledTIy WllIl TeBdTU lO Cuc hcCSSSily for imm ediate action in the matter of relief accommodations in our High school next fall. I have no evenings open next week and do not see how another conference can state the facts more plainly. There is no new angle to the matter than the ones we dis cussed. am restatfng the pertinent facts brought out that there may be no chance that any member of the Board of Aldermen does not have these facts at hand.
 High school in June will number ap- proximately 300. Based upon past experience, the proportion of the graduates of the grammar and paro- chial schools will apply to the Bridge port High school to the number of 1000 which will leave a net increase to be provided for of TOO. In Febru- ary, there will be g. sufficient number graduated from the grammar schools of about 400. We are faced then. with an immediate necessity for ac- comodattng TOO next September and 400 more in mid-year.
 Without relief, a choice Of two methods is open to us:
 l. Holding these 700 High school students back in grammar schools and placing on part-time 40 rooms of grammar school children. This per work makes supervision almost inn possible, and is a practice which has been condemned by the parents of the city in no uncertain terms to this board.
