Public Works Board Refuses to
Accede to Council Request !
Tlie board of public w orks, at an
adjourned meeting held yesterday
afternoon, voted to recommend to
the common council tb'at the appli
cation of G. II. Wooding for a per
mit to move two housea owned by
Attorney George I.eWHt, from Pine
to Ellis streets through Cherry street
be granted.
Vesterday afternoon's meeting was
held as a result of the decision of
the common council to have the
board of public works reconsider its
first action. The board first voted
to n commend to the common coun
cil that the permit be granted and
the recommendation was adopted,
but in the meantime a remonstrance
'. us circulated to' have the common
council reconsider its action. This
petition, which was signed by about
40 people, set forth that the permit
should be revoked because of the
danger which would be incurred as
a n suit of the blocking of the streets
along the route to be followed. It
was the receipt of this remonstrance
which led the council to rescind'its
former action and request the board
of public works to take the matter
up again.
At a meeting held last Tuesday
right the board of public works vot
eai to recjuof.t the corporation coun
sel for a decision in the matter and
in answer to this request Corpora
tion Counsel KIrkham submitted the
following communication:
'Board of Public Works,
"New Britain, Conn.,
"liear Sirs:
"In gi-iiera! the common council
and the building commission have
p.ot the right to revoke or modify the
permits given to Wooding, without
making him or the parties that he
ri presents, just compensation, but
r it It r he r;or they w ill be entitled
to expectf d protlts of which they
might be deprived.
"Th're is this exception, however,
I'nd'r its podce powers, the city, as
rrpresent"d by the common council,
has the right to rescind or modify
the permit as such permits are made,
upon the implied condition under
toed and ace'pted by the grantee,
hat If the safety, health or morals
o: the public shall require the rescis
sion or triO'litieatlon of o permit, it
naiy so I'e r'seinderl or inodefied.
"No rights of third persons have
vesteri in this case, as Wooding was
simply the airert of the owners of
tie buildiacrs and reeeiv,-d a permit
in iha- same way that an architect
receives a permit as agent for the
owner of the house.
"In that case, the question then
tha! the city has is this: Does the
safety, hea'th or morals of the pub
'lc require a r-voeation or modifica
tion of tbe permit? Is a public nuis
aee being crea'ed? Ts there a
manifest and material danger from
fires, highway aceioVni s, etc.?
"There I 'lng no rights of third
persons, but only the rights of the
licensee hlms,-:f involved, It Is my
(pinion that if tbr situation Is really
a serious one, then the lleense hav
ing l ee,-, granted his permit upon the
implied condition that it might be
..-sein.je,! or modified, that the city
-.. e,n A not i,e iiab for damages. In

SHEPHERD TO BE
CLOSfLYUUlZZED
His Interest in Typhoid Genus
Being Probed
By Tli. 'He'll !i .
Chicago, Dec, 27. Ilxaniliiution of
William D. tsnephiuil, lawyer-drug-giet
iiinl heir of Wllllani N.lr.on Mo
Cliiilock, "millionaire orphan,"
whoso ibnlh, attribute J to typhoid
lever, uceuiTi'l thieu w ks ago at
the Shepherd home, awaited' Shep
herd's arrival today from Albuquer
due, New Mexico.
Suite's Attorney wlshoil to question
him pnrllculiirly regarding stato
ments of F. T. Ilreldlgan of Matllc
Creek, Mich., formerly In charge of
clinical routine of the llllnoie re
search laboratories lime, who told of
visits in Iflfl to the laboratory of a
Mr. Shepherd, who epresse, interest

typhoid germs with him.
brnib In llinly.
The autopsy over the. exbuined
body of MeCllnlock disclose.) the
presence of typhoid germs, but ban
not determined the cause of death,
according to Coroner Oscar Wolff.
Further reports of the examination
will be made.
En route to Chicago last night,
Shepherd, In Kansas City, declared
he "never had seen a typhoid germ,"
he said he had come to the labora
tory for treatments nft'T an npi ra
tion. The entire Investigation, he.
said, resulted from efforts of distant
relatives because they had not been
Included In the bequests.
Kreidlgan's statement was made
public by George K. Gorman, assist,
ant State's attorney at the same time
that the. prosecutor's office announc
ed it was investigating all possibili
ties of the case not excluding that of
typhoid inoculation and Improper
feeding of the patient to hasten or
aggravate his Illness. ,
Examination of Dr. Rupert Stolp,
who signed the dcath certificate giv
ing typhoid as the caues of Mc
Clintock's death, failed to elicit any
confirmation of those possibilities to
Jcssup Savage, assstnnt state's attor
ney, said. Dr. Stolp disclosed, how
ever, the prosecutor said, that when
he was first called November !",
MeClintock seemed to be suffering
from an Infection on the nose ami
throat, and. while he seemed very illi
showed no symptoms of typhoid
fever until a few days later.
Letters Arc Shown.
Itobcrt K. f-'t oil, law partner of
Shepherd, yesterday submitted sev
eral letters from young MeClintock
to Mr. Shepherd in which hi ad
dressed them lit affectionate terms.
His last words before his death were
an expression of love to Mrs. Shep
herd, whom he called "mothcit," the
attorney said. I
Coroner's chemists said it --oul4
take two or thre-e. more days to 'com
plete the analysts of the necropsy
and determine the exact cause of
death.
Harry Alson, chief justice of the.
municipal court, and friend of the
MeClintock family, who Instigated
the Inquiry, said he did not expect
that anything else exerpt ndtcation
that MeClintock died of typhoid fev
er would develop from the autopsy.
Much remained to be cleared up,
however, he said.
"I was a patient of Dr. Oscar G.
Olson, suffering from amoebic infec
tion," Mr. Shepherd tobl newspaper
men who aroused him from his
sleeper berth last night when his
train reached Kansas City. "Records
at the American hospital in Chicago
show I was scut there by Dr. Olson
for treatment and tksvjt I had my
tonsils removed and underwent bii
operation for nasal trouble while at
the hospital. After leaving the hos
pital I suffered nose htc'Is from the
operation and went to Dr. Olson at
the laboratories for farther treat
ment. It was then I ni"t Mr. Brcldi
gan, I remember !, showed me
slides of tuberculosis to rms on one
of my visits, but nevr any typhoid
germs. I have never seen a typhoid
germ in my life."
Slii phenlV Statement.
The Shepherds l.tv.e "nothing to
fear and nothing to hide." in the in
vestigation of the cause of MeClin
tock 's death," Mr. S .epberd said.
"The investigali'ii has resn'ted
from the efforts of distant relatives
living In Topeka at.d St. Marys. Kan
sas, to have his "ill discredited be
cause Mrs. SV-;,:.rrd end I, who
loved him bb our own son, were left
