WOMAN INJURED
 IN AUTO CRASH
Four Others Escape Injury as Car Goes Down
 Embankment

Mrs. Hannah Hamarnick, of 29 Truman street, New Haven, suf- fered slight injuries and four other persons escaped injury when the car in which they were riding left the highway, overturned and crash ed against tree at the foot of a embankment off the East Moun- tain road early last night.
 Mrs. Hamarnick suffered only several decorations. The passen- gers were eXtricated from the wreck age of the car by Charles DeBis- schop, in front of whose home the accident occurred.
 So tightly wedged against the tree was the automobile that the tree had to be cut down before the wrecked vehicle could be lowed away.
 The driver of the car, Nathan Hamarnick, son of the injured wo- man, said that the automobile swerved as he applied his brakes. He attempted to swing the car back into the highway, and as he did so the steering knuckle broke, sending the auto out of control.
 Cars operated by George Dukas, 19, of 357 South Main street, and Michael Daversio, of 492 West Main street, collided last night on South Main street, near the South Leon ard street bridge. Dukas was ar rested on a charge of violating the rules of the road.

JAIL RESENTMENT
 IN DANBURY DIES
New Federal Prison PrOj= eCt Promises to Be
 Town Asset

Resentment with which first an- nouncements of the new federal prison project at Danbury were met has died down since Mayor Martin J. Cunningham of Danbury an- nounced that in his opinion the prison will be an asset to that city.
 Residents of Danbury voiced pro- test at the first official announce ment that the new prison was to be built in their community. Mayor Cunningham expressed his favor for the prison after a conference with Attorney General Homer s. Cum mings and James Bennett, national director of federal prisons.
 One reason for the change of opinion is that 300 employees of the prison are expected to bring about $500,000 in business to the Danbury stores annually. In addition, no hardened criminals or gunmen will be confined at Danbury. The prison will be exclusively for short term first offenders such as erring bank employees. mail department employees and businessmen who violate the bankruptcy laws. It will consist of dormitories, hospital, school, trade school, mess hall and workshops, as well as an administration building. A large garden is to be developed, and all produce for the prisoners will be raised on the site.
 The exact location for the prison has not as yet been revealed.

@ASSSS@AOSSS&
 Prepares Notice
 Corporation Counsel Charles S. O'Connor is preparing warning notices to be sent to those owing old street, sewer and water asses ments. Tax Attorney George Guil- foile has begun campaign for the payment of property taxes due and unpaid. George A. Stokes, collector of old age assistance taxes, is di- recting 8 drive for collection of sums due on that item. Also being sought are unpaid personal and personal property taxes. Tax Collec- tor William A. Ennis and his staff are cooperating with the other of- fices.
 City court officials are also joined in the campaign, and arrest and arraignment in court faces those who have failed to pay personal or personal property taxes, as well as old age assistance taxes. Though the $2 personal poll tax ended several years ago, being supplanted by the old age assistance tax of $3, there are still many who owe payments.
 Fine Provided
 The statutes provide a fine or jail term for those delinquent in payment of personal or old age as- sistance taxes This action has never been taken in Waterbury before, though it has been taken in several communities about the state.
 At the finance board meeting when the decision to begin a drive for the collection of back taxes and assessments was voted, Commission CT John H. Goss said that the ones to suffer principally would be those willing to pay but who have re- fused to do so. Those actually un- able to pay, he said, would be given some plan of partial payments to make up their deficiencies.

Only Four Fatalities
 Recorded By Police
 In Past Six Months
Mishaps Show Gratifying Decline City Escaped Dreaded Fourth of July Holiday With Comparatively
 Few Accidents Continued Cooperation Asked

there were 299 property damage ac cidents, reduction of 89, or 26 per cent, from the figures for the first half of the year 1897.
 Four Fatalities
 There have been four fatalities thus far this year, the same as last year. There were only 121 person. al-injury accudents during the first half of this year, which is 63 less than the total during the same pe- riod last year.
 Accidents in general also decreas- ed during the first six months of 1888. The total was 424, an ap- preciable decrease from the half year 1887 total of 576.
 The first half of the year showed reduction of 34 per cent in per- sonal injury accidents from 1887, and a reduction of g per cent in property damage accidents. The &C., cident squad, directed by Capt. Will liam Duggan, Sergt. Joseph Mo- Evoy and Sergt. Charles McWeeney has been conducting a steady acci- dent prevention campaign this year. The drive will be continued.
 Police Superintendent today is- sued the following statement:
 Waterbury passed through the weekend of the Fearful Fourth" with only ten accidents. This years total Is five less than the weekend of July Fourth, 1897 and for the splendid cooperation given us this year the police department desires to thank both the motorist and the pedestrian of Waterbury. But we cannot afford to permit ourselves to relax our caution dur ing the balance of the month. Sup pose we propose the month of July, the month of motor vehicle terror, this slogan: "Be alive on August First" believe that the effort we will put forth to keep this motto in the front of our minds during the rest of the month will well be worth the trouble. By continuing to bear this thought in mind we will give ourselves added protection and we won't commit any foolish or careless deeds where in we jeopardize our existence. July has always been symbolic with pain and death but if we put our untir- ing efforts into stopping needless slaughter we can make it the saf- est of the twelve. Instead of July being month where death, injury sorrow and suffering runs rampant it will be, through our combined work, a month of happiness and contentment. Let each operator of a car sign the Drivers Declaration of Independence"; declaration which will be: T will drive safely and be free from accidents during the month of July"
 Be Alive August l
 Let us make common sense our basic attack against the Grim Reaper who lies in wait for US to make that careless move or mistake whether walking or riding so He can add us to His ever growing death-roll. We do not want to be one of the unfortunates who will suffer during this month of futile bloodshed; we want to continue liv- ing for Life is Sweet therefore let us keep in mind during this entire month our slogan which eventual ly will be the symbol of safety: "Be alive on August First"
