Lay Murder of Buonomo
to Bomb Throwers
(Continued from Pagre 1.)
reporter for The Farmer today was
unable to secure direct affirmation
from his sources of information it Is
intimated that placing of the bomb
was done with the intention of ex
ploding at a time when Kleinberger
was often known to enter his shop,
and it was expected to kill. So well
arranged was the plot that the noise
would attract all from the station
platforms, and escape could be made
on the- 8:15 train during the height
of the . confusion. A time fuse is
thought to. have been cut.
The belief that death was intended
is borne out by the fact that minute
fragments of scrap metal were evi
dently combined with the explosive as
is shown by the condition of the in
jured mens' bodies at St. ' Vincent's
hospital where both Warren Lewis
and James Carmbdy are said to be
slowly recovering.
It was today learned that govern
ment detectives sent here to ascertain
whether counterfeit money was being
manufactured in the vicinity, as well
as to learn the connection of local
Italians with a world-wide death
society, were unable to detect trace
of any men wanted and left early this
morning.
HARRY THAW INSANE,
CALLED AS WITNESS
New York, April 10 Harry ; Thaw
came down to New York, today, to
testify j, before the grand Jury inves
tigating the alleged attempt at bri
bery to get him out of the Matteawan
asylum for the criminal insane. His
mother accompanied him. The party
went direct to the grand Jury room
in the criminal courts building. Af
ter spending a few minutes there
Thaw was taken to' the, chambers of
Supreme Court Justice Seabury, where
it was planned to take his testimony.
Because Thaw had been adjudged
insane, his testimony cannot be con
sidered In the light of evidence from
a witness in chief but will have to
be - regarded as - corroborative.

REASSURING REPORTS
FROM POPE PITTS X
(Continued from Page One.)
withstanding the efforts of his own
cook, Stefiano Inchiostro, who. , came
with him from Venice, Prof. March
lafava said after his morning visit
that he considered the unchanged con
ditions "on the whole as favorable for
the patient. - ,
! The only specific apprehension is
heart weakness. Dir. Ammici, who
spent the night at the Pope's bedside.
said tills morning that bla 'patient
rested sufficiently well. His tempera
ture Is now a little above 97.-
Dr. Ammlcl denied reports that the
Pope is suffering from nephritis and
reiterated that the whole jtrouble is a
relapse from his attack, of influenza.
In all the churches of Rome this
morning spueclal prayers were offered
for the recovery of the Pope, and the
congregations recited with the clergy
the "Oremus Pri Poniefiee Nostro."
Prof. ' Marchlafava, this afternoon,
gave confirmation, of the continuance
of improvement in the , Pope's condi
tion." He said his o nly fear was that
complication might arise more espe
cially, through the lack of sufficient
nourishment taken by his patient.
Efforts v will be triade, .therefore, to
administer artificial nourishment.
The improvement in the Pontiff's
health is proved by the fact that Dr.
Andra Ammici left the Vatican, to
day, to go to a hospital - to perform an
operation on the daughter of the por
ter of the house where the sisters of
the Pope reside. ' The girl was-recommended
to his- care by the relatives
of the- Pope. - . . . '
Dr. Ammici said, today, that . he
hopes by next week Pius X 11 "will be
convalescent. An entirely contrary
opinion, however, is expressed . by
some of those immediately surround
ing, the Pope who depict the situa
tion as grave. They assert that as
the result of an examination made by
specialists the presence of from 10
to 12 -degrees of albumen was proved.
The sisters and nieces of the Pope
remained with him three hours this
morning. Just before 11 o'clock Car
dinal Merry Del "Val, the papal secre
tary of state entered the bed cham
ber and the Pope, who said in reply
to ' the Cardinal's inquiry that he felt
relieved, expressed regret that he
would be unable to see the- pilgrims
who had come - from "Venice.
A party of 800 Polish pilgrims ar
rived, today, and wenif to the Vati
can. As they were not allowed to see
the Pope they marcned around the
piazza In procession chanting pray
ers and singing hymna in their own
language. Many of the pilgrims were
peasants wearing their national cos
tumes but there were also members
of the old Polish nobility and even
some Polish princes. They were in
formed of the latest news of the
(Pope's health. -
PHILLIPS WARNS
.AUTO SPEEDERS
Hartford, April 10 In suspending
the automobile licenses of Archer
House and Frank Flynn, both, of Wa
terbury, Secretary of State , Albert
Phillips, today, served notice on auto
drivers throughout the state ,as to
what they may expect for excessive
speeding. He says:
"I have taken cognizance of the
fact" that there have been- gross vio
lations of the motor .vehicle law in
the city of Waterbury, operators con
tinually operating their cars at a
rate of speed to endanger life, limb
and property and the police depart
ment ; has found difficulty in coping
with the situation. The time has
come when this office must take
steps to see that this excessive' speed
ing through the main thoroughfares
of a city so large as Waterbury must
be stopped. And in this connection I
desire to say that this also applies
to every other city in the state. I
shall coroperate - with police depart
ments to see that this excessive
speeding, is stopped and . shall con
tinue to' suspend operators' licenses
until the violators have had suffi
cient warning to give them to under
stand that excessive speed will not
be tolerated." , ,
GENERAL ASSEMBLY
Hartford, April 10 The military
committee, in a report to the General
Assembly,, today, set forth what it be
lieves are the present needs for arm
ories in the state. . It said in its bill
that full inquiry had been made with
due regard to desirability and ac
quisition of state armory properties.
The first need is for an armory at
Waterbury with a site to cost $250,000
and an armory site at .New Haven
at a cost of $126,000. The second,
need Is a. site and armory at Man
chester at a cost of $50,000. The third
need is site and armory- for Troop
B at West. Hartford at a cost of $90,
000. , The fourth need is a site and
armory at Bristol at a cost of $50,000.
The fifth need , is a site and armory
at Middletown at a cost of $70,000.
- Another of Gov. Baldwin's recom
mendations in his inaugural message
waa reported unfavorably. This was
his plan to consolidate the building
and loan commision's office with that
of the bank commissioners, ,
The excise committee reported fa
vorably a bill providing that when
the Superior court has held that a
license transfer is illegally made the
licensee may retransfer such license
to some suitable place; also providing
that notice of hearings or remon
strances to licenses shall be mailed by
copy to applicants; and providing
that the administrator or executor of
an . estate of a. license holder may
transfer the license to some suitable
person. . .
That the proposition to have an
open season on deer will provoke a
lively debate among the small town
members of the House was forecast
ed, today, by three amendments of
fered to the committee's bill which is
favorable to two weeks, shooting In
the fall. The most important .of these
amendments provides that deer hunt
ing shall be on Mondays and Wednes
days in the first three weeks in No
vember only and that a special fee
of five dollars shall be required of
hunters. Non-resident hunters will
be charged $25 for a license.
The excise committee reported un
favorably a bill. to raise, license fees
in towns of over 15,000 population to
$750 and likewise unfavorable on the
bill to limit licenses to 1 to 1,000
population Indicating that there will
be a contest over these measures.
The bill . incorpating the Fairfield
Title & Trust Company tof Westport,
was rejected upon an- unfavorable re
port.
" The railroads committee ' reported
unfavorably the bill providing that no
person who could not secure a seat
In a trolley car should pay a three
cent fare. -

A very gem in the collection of new-style suits for
young women is the model here told of at $22.50,

blue and tan or a rich and lustrous black. And then it is

side pleats. Jacket is either the 3-button cutaway or
straight model. Each jacket is finished with matching
lining even the dress-shields that are inserted in each are
covered with same lining.
There is very little decoration marking this particular
suit. It depends entirely for favor upon its rich appear
ance. And the tailoring that distinguishes it is worthy
of special notice. There is much careful stitching; there
is painstaking shaping and fitting; there is an air of thor
ough and competerr. workmanship breathed by every inch
of the completed suit.
