THE INSURANCE BUILDING
10 Re Sold at Auction To-MorrOw to
 the Highest Bidder.

To Re Sold at Auction TO.mOrrOW to
 the Highest Bidder.
 The Insurance building, as announced in an advertisement elsewhere, will be sold at auction tomorrow, September 21, at eleven o'clock, to the highest bidder without re- serve. The property when offered at auction before was not sold, the minimum bid that would be accepted proving bar. This time the highest bidder takes it. MT. B. c. Lake is the officiating auctioneer. Naturally the marketing of so valuable, central and notable piece of real estate creates much public interest and interests the monied men. The building is good investment as Trinity church, upon whose land it stands, must at the expiration of the lease forty-fve years hence buy the building at 75 per cent. of its appraised value, without reference to the ground. The building cost over $275, ,00O to build. At the expiration of the lease the building will, of course, be freed from the lease rent which now absorbs much of the rental money. At that time the value of the property will, no doubt, be much enhanced and the church will have to pay for it much larger sum than will be realized from to-morrow's sale. The title comes from the State of Connecticut under the foreclosure of the States mortgage and the order of the Superior court to sell. The certificate that the title is free from in- cumbrance and perfect comes from Henry D. White, whose certificate further says that Mir Russell as receiver of the American Ma the oIder of the Superior court for New Haven county good title to said building and the unexpired term of said lease, to the purchaser thereof"

Purefoy and David H. Hine John P. Gardner presided at the organ and William H. Conklin conducted the exercises MT. Purefoy dwelt upon the importance of decision in the matter of re- formation of the inebriate, and counseled the victim of alcohol to evoke his manhood and call upon the Lord for help. His remarks were listened to with deep attention. MT. Hine made powerful and forcible address, in which he portrayed the evils that exist in society and indicated the only sure way in which to escape their contaminating inau- ence. His utterances were vigorously ap- plauded President Conklin gave the invita- tion for signatures to the pledge and num- Der responded. Mrs. G. L.

THAT LIBEL.

The HERALD Is sued for libel be-
cause of an unjust and defective libel
law as inducemet to such procedure,
rather than just cause for such ac-
ton. The case briefly summed up is
as follows: An unsuspccting coun-
tryman, from the county of Galveston,
came to this city, fell in with the two
men, Dugan and Mcintyre, were in
duccd to go to the Wichita saloon.
where whisky was drank and the
country,nan becoming drunk, was
soon after, there or near about, robbed
OF $50. The case came up in the may
or's court; it was reported in the
HERALD with such comment and
plain suggestions as would likely be a
warning to others, and thus protect
them from the evil consequences of
bad associations and the snares which,
in city, are ever ready and awaiting
the innocent and unsuspecting. MI
Sockwell called at the HERALD Office
and in modest way CON-
planned of what he claimed to
be an injustice to his firm,
admitting in the course of the con-
versation that the saloon did have
very bad reputation when he bought
it. The HERALD gave Mr.. Sockwen
the benefit of his statement and de-
NAL in the next issue of the paper, the
HERALD at the same time disclaiming
any intent or desire to injure this or
ally other saloon which is orderly and
well kept. This, it seems, was not sat-
isfactory; and their suit will now
make it necessary for the HERALD to
prove in the courts an absence of any
desire or intent to injure any worthy
business, house or man; and possibly
to prove, TOO, the truth of the allega-
lions complained of. That the Wich-
tia saloon had an unsavory reputation
is no fault of the HERALD; the HER
AID certainly did not help make it;
and the present owners were not
compelled to buy it when, as they adj
nit, it did then have the name Of be-
ing very bad place.

280 pardoned, 236 escaped and 221 died
Superintendent Goree discusses the
convict problem and says If more
prisons are to be built II should be
done with convict labor. If the State
will use convicts for farm work il will
require $500 900 to provide farm for
each 100 convicts. Col. Goree says
convict labor cannot come into compe.
tition with free labor within or with.
out the walls. He would work skilled
labor in the walls and labor which can
not be remuncrative inside he could
utilize on State account or by hiring
convicts to work on the outside. One
way of making room inside the walls,
he recommends, is to provide reforma-
tories for youthful offenders and an
other to reduce the number of felon-
les. lie doubts the policy or practi-
cability of working short time con-
victs on county roads. Escapes and
transportation expense would be too
great.
The financial agent reports receipts
of $966,89O for the two years; expense,
s 956,597, leaving balance of $10,342.
OF the expenditures $l04,252 was for
permanent improvements of real es-
tate and stock on farms. The net
profit for the two years was $l87, 446.
On quarries of capitol contractor the
net profit was 1925. Convict labor on
railroads, net profit was $50,627.34. On
farms worked on shares there was a
net loss of $12,607. The value Of stock
and manufactured articles ON hand is
1927, 1884, and value of farm property,
live stock, crops and personal prop
erty on farms, $l35,239. If the iron
and other manufactures on hand could
be sold ut once the penitentiaries
would be over 100000 ahead.
The Capitol Board has rejected a
dozen propositions for changes and
alterations in work and material used
in various portions of the building.
The propositions would have reduced
the cost some $4,000, which sum
would be charged against the con-
tractors, or used in other changes, en-
failing additional cost. The principal
proposition was to change the roof
from slate to tin, iron or copper, but
copper would cost some $4,000 more
than slate. Another proposition was
to change the material of the support
of the iron piers OH the dome from
stone to brick There would have
been in the latter change a
saving to the contractors, enabling
the commissioners to substitute copper
for the slate roof. The board refused
to order any change, but resolved
that the contractor had permission to
make copper roof. Another propo-
sition OF some importance, which was
rejected, was to allow the commission
to decide whether American or foreign
plate glass should be used. The spcci-
fications require French glass. The
board, before going out of Office,
seems all at once dead set against any
changes, RENTING to their successors
the problem of making flat roof Of
slate.
