THE SOLDIERS MONUMENT.
A Plea for the Sailors as Well as the
 Soldiers.

A Plea for the Sailors as Well as the
 Soldiers.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
 We are glad to notice that in the resolu- tions presented by Comrade John Mccarthy at Admiral Foote posts last meeting, the monument to be erected on East Rock is called the "Soldiers and Sailors Monument, , and not the Soldiers monument alone.
 We say most emphatically give the sailor his place alongside of the soldier. Let us, while we commemorate the brave soldier dead, not forget the services of the noble sailor. Remember his great and valuable deeds during all our wars. In the old French wars ;oIr State sent Captain David Wooster (afterward General Wooster killed at Dan- 5ury), who commanded ship belonging to Connecticut, and at the successful siege of Louisburgh Captain Wooster was dispatched to London and carried the news of the glorious victory, for which valuable service he was commissioned a captain in the British navy, which position he held on half pay until the breaking out of the war of the revolution. He then resigned his commission and was made by the Con necticut Assembly major general, with Spen- .cer and Putnam brfgadiers. Don't forget the name of the gollant Hull of the U. s. frigate Constitution, Captain Gerry, son of Eldridge Gerry, Vice-President of the United States. Captain Gerry was @ dis tinguished officer of the Mexican war; also our Gregory, Foote, Hunt and Peck and don't leave out Capt. Samuel P. Crafts Still with us and may ne ioiig live)' whose distinguished ser vices in command of Admiral Porter's des- patch boat at Fort Fisher were noticed by his admiral. We say give the sailor his place and don't forget the services of our blockading squadron and what our navy did in Hampton Roads, the Mississippi river and at Mobile Bay Call this beautiful coming monument ''The Soldiers and Sailors Monu- ment" and let it be known as such for all

Sidney Way, son of MT. George |. Way of Hartford, was badly hurt recently in Westminster, Vt., where he is staying for the summer. With his mother and two lit tie brothers he arrived there two weeks ago, and while at play that afternoon in his un- ole's barn fell down an open hatchway, a dis tance of twelve feet For second or two he was held head downwards by theSheel of his shoe catching on board, but only for a sec ond or two, when it gave way and he went down striking upon his side. He was taken into the house unconscious and two physi- cians summoned, one a New York doctor who is summering in Putney, an adjoining town. It was nearly o'clock at the time of the accident, but it was past in the morn ing before the doctors were enabled to re- store the little fellow to consciousness. The next day Tuesday, he was taken with a hemorrhage and for several days suffered severe pain. For the past few days he seems greatly improved, and the doctors feel en- couraged to hope for his recovery.

Attachments Placed On The Wi

Attachments Placed On The Wild
 West Show Yesterday.
 The legal fight between the two rival
 ''Wild West'' shows seems to have only just commenced. The suits commenced in Will limantic, which resulted in the breaking ur of the Dr. Carver combination, now bid fair to cause similar disaster to the Buffalo Bill party Yesterday morning suit was
 brought against Buffalo Bill Civilian F | Cody) and Nate Saulsbury for $25,00 fol | libel Sheriff Keefe was given the papers te | serve and he made demand upon LawyersAl
 ling and Webb for the $1O,O00 in cash. MT filling refused to turn over the funds and | told the officer of the law that he could fac | torize it if he chose, but he couldn't have the cash. When informed of the fact Lawyer Blydenburgh telegraphed to Judge Stoddard who is at Milford and asked to be heard on 8 | motion to set aside the injunction. Attor- neys Blydenburgh and filling went to Mil 1 ford on the 1 o'clock train yesterday afternoon and saw Judge Stoddard. MT. Blydenburgh argued that the injunction granted be dissolved for the reason that the security furnished by Buffalo Bills attorney was not satisfactory. He wanted the amount of the security, 0,000 in so much cash and not in bond. The bond had been given as security Tn the 1nJuncu1On prOceeolnBs- At torney filling said that he did not so under stand the agreement that so much cash should be deposited as security. However,
 he agreed to have deposited in the
 First National bank, this city, 1000 to be held there until the case had been decided. It was also agreed by him that the clerk of the Superior court should have the custody of the fund, which was another condition that Lawyer Blydenburgh insisted upon. With this understanding carried out, his honor said that he would not modify the in junction, inasmuch as the reasons were in sufficient. Judge Stoddard notified Messrs. filling and Blydenburgh, after he had settled the case, that hereafter, owing to the illness of his wife, he would be unable to hear any further petitions motions. If more disagreements arose, he told them to call in Ju ge Torrance.
 Deputy Sheriff O'Keefe went to Norwalk yesterday and attached the Buffalo Bill coIa. bination for $25, ,000 for libel in a suit brought by Dr. Carver. The attachment was served at the close of the performance The attorneys went to Birmingham to get as they could not produce 8 sufficient bond the attachment was allowed to stand. Judge Torrance will give hearing on the subject of bond in this city Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock, when, if sufficient sureties are offered, the attachment will be released. It was reported last evening by one of the attor- neys for Dr. Carver that a writ of attach ment on the body of Buffalo Bill has also been issued and would probably be served before this morning.

Shocking and Fatal Accident il
 Waterbury.

Waterbury,
 In Waterbury yesterday William Moakley, aged seventeen, the only support of a recent ly widowed mother, was at work in the ma- chine department of the Scoville Manufac- turing company's works and was adjusting a lathe belt upon the main shafting, which makes about 120 revolutions minute, when somehow his left arm was caught and in stantly he was dragged up and whirled around the rapidly revolving shafting nearly dozen times before the power could be stopped. When he was taken down he was unconscious. Dr. Axtelle, upon being call ed, decided that the young man was in no condition to be removed to his home, so he was carried to, another room of the works. Upon examination it was found that the left hand was entirely gone, while the arm to the elbow was. horribly crushed and broken. The joint at the elbow was also badly shat tered. It was found necessary to samputate the member midway between the elbow and shoulder joint. The right arm at the wrist was also broken. There were severe contu sions and swellings on the forehead, but it is not yet certain that the skull is fractured. The limbs were also badly bruised. After the operation Moakley was carried to his home where he lay in critical condition un- til 3:15 in the afternoon when he died.
