TERRIBLE ACCIDENT IN BRIDGE
 PORT!
GLOVER SANFORD < SoN's FACTORY BURNT, AND ELEVEN MEN KILLED BY THE
 FALLING OF ITS WALLS

L.
 Our readers are most of them aware that, few years since tin 1864, Messrs. Glover Sanford & Sons, large manufac- turers of hats, in Bridgewater. removed their works to Bridgeport. There they bought brick building erected by the Williams Silk Co.,, 28O feet long, 50 feet deep and 4 stories high, which originally cost $110 900. On Thursday night the upper story of this building was discover ed to be on fire. As has often been the case in Bridgeport the water supply prov ed inadequate. and the fire soon got be- yond control
 At the northeast corner of the main fac. tory was the Company's office, one story building, and number of men were en- gagged in it working at the safe. In the meantime the fire in the main building had progressed so far that there was i'm minent danger of the falling of it's walls. Warning was given to the firemen, and Mir. Sanford himself besought the men to leave the office. They delayed, however, till the walls fell first the back and the front wall, and at last the high wall ad- | joining the office leaned outward and fell npon it, burying all who were within. Then the other wall fell, taking the fire into wing no by 50 feet. This, as well as the main building and the engine and boiler rooms, was destroyed. A cry of horror burst from the crowd when they saw the wall fall on the office in which the men were at work. As soon as it was pos sible to do so. search was begun; and, one after another, eteven bodies were re- covered. The scenes at the ruins, and afterwards at the undertakers where the bodies were taken, were hearl-rsnding A coroner's jury, after finding the cause of their deaths to be the falling of the walls, added 'that the supply of water from the hydrants was totally inadequate for the occasion, for had it been sufficient tho fire department would have stopped the con- 1 fagration."
 This is the third serious fire in Bridge port within four years, it is said, that might have been checked, had the supply of water been sufficient, and the Sanfords very properly refuse to rebuild unless the water supply is made satisfactory. Their loss will reach $25O, ,OOO; insurance, $1OO.- GOO. The firm employed 253 hands, now, of course, thrown out of employment.

MT. Smalley, of the Tribune, writing from Georgia, offers little hope of any di- vision of the Democratic party of that Slate. They hold together, and will hold together he thinks, against any sugges- ton of alliance with the administration party Very possibly; and, in that case, is MT. Hayes southern policy a mistake !? Not necessarily. As we have often said, 8 united South, abusing its power, will sure ly find itself held in check by an united North. In former times, when the South was vastly stronger than it is to-day. it re- peatedly found itself too weak to domineer over the North. There is less reason than ever to fear 1t now.

The great Poughkeepsie Bridge across

The great Poughkeepsie Bridge across the Hudson seems to be begun in earnest. Its completion is expected to greatly in- crease the value of Conn. Western bonds. By the way. it is said that some of the owners of these bonds object to the plan adopted of taking preferred stock and the management of the road, recently carried into effect, and talk of forcing a foreclosure. Probably this opposition will amount to nothing.
 The Hartford Times gives table of ele- vations of mountains in the northern part of this county. The height of the three highest are unfortunately estimated. only, but are probably over 2OOO feet. Mount Brace, in Salisbury. at the northwest cor ner of the state. is thought to be about 23OO feet in height. Ivy Mountain, in Co., shen is only, 642 feet high.

Another American Prima Donna.

Miss Blanche, second daughter of DIR.
and Mrs. E. L. Davenport, is engaged at
San Carlo theatre, Naples, asprima donna
assoluta, for the months of May and
June. She has studied in Milan for
years to qualify herself for the position
she is now about to assume under very
fatteriDg auspices. She refused to ap-
pear in this country when here last fall,
and now she will make her trial effort in
the finest theatre in the world. Artists
are examined by a c0mmitte of forty no.
bles before they can appear there, and in
the case of Miss Davenport they waived
the rule that requires the artists 10 have
sung in three star theaters. Many art
lists of great ability have labored unsuc-
cessful for the honor conferred upon our
young countrywoman, and her many
friends on and off the stage will rejoice
at her good fortune. This will probably
lead to London debut, and that means
all the world-PhiIadelphiG Times.
