On the west side of the Capitol, on the summit of the bank, were set out eight black walnut trees, presented to the State by Mir. Elisha s. Elmer of No. 66 Wooster street, who as- sisted in the planting. These were grown from seed planted five years ago by Mr. Elmer. Among the other trees planted ou the Capitol grounds were ten elms, eight naples and one birch. At 3 o'clock yester- day afternoon the old veterans employed in the Capitol assembled on the brow of the hill at the northwest of the building and planted maple tree. Each of the eight or ten old soldiers used the shovel, and as the years pass will watch the tree with fatherly T1rida

TROUBLE THE CAMP.

The Democratic Caucus In West Haven
 Last Nighf-Old Democrats Make
 Themselves Heard-The Register
 Assalled.
 There is liable to be discord in the ranks of the Democratic party in West Haven. At their caucus held last night the action that was taken does not suit the idea that many of the staunch old party men will cherish and they gave vent to their feelings in quite forcible manner. In response to call for 8 caucus about 30 citizens representing the Democratic faction met in the borough hall and proceeded to nominate their ticket. Charles T.. Sherman was chosen moderator and Dr. J. H. Barnett clerk; tellers, Charles
 Hofmiester and John Loomis. An informal
 ballot was taken for warden and resulted in
 James H. Reynolds, Rep, receiving r, J: H.
 Peck and 0. T. Sherman 4, and a number
 scattering. Mir. Sherman withdrew his
 name from the list. MT. J. H. Peck, road
 master, ganger of the custom house, ex-
 sheriff etc., also stated that he wished it un-
 derstood that he was no candidate for office.
 He also made few remarks. He said: "I
 feel just at this time that it is
 right that I should say few

 eral prominent citizens of the borough in
 regard to the question of road commissioner.
 It was one that was created during the term
 of the present board, and it was through
 them that was elected All the warden

 was responsible for pushing the work of Elm street. There were repairs needed and advocated that the work be done There was large fill to be made and it was neces- sAry to extend the street to carry out that work Ii there is anything wrong 1t is the trouble of your burgesses."
 Dr. Barnett made motion that, as it seemed the sense of the meeting that J. H. Reynolds be named as nominee for warden, that it be made unanimous. William T. Smith, Democrat, took exception to this. He said: ;'It is very strange that Democrats should come into caucus and nominate man from the enemy's camp. (Mr. Key holds is the present warden.) Is it possible that we have no man to represent the bor- ougha I wish, gentlemen, that you would consider the thing before you settle the mst- ter. Last year we endorsed the Republican candidate and suffered by it." MT. Smiths speech did not seem to have much effect or the meeting, for, by exclamation, MT. Key holds was nominated for warden. A. D.
 Thomas, Peter Gaffney at present members oi the board, and Dennis Kimberly, a new man were nominated for burgesses.
 The meeting endorsed the nomination o1 A. 0. Heitman for clerk as made at the oiti- zens caucus Thursday night and nominated Dr. J. F. Barnett as treasurer.

REV. MIR. COLLINS TO RETIRE.

To Engage i'm a New Field of Christian
 WOrk-An Important Consolidation
 or City Mission Work In New Haven.
 Rev. John 0. Collins, for the last eleven years in charge of the Gospel Union in this city, is aoon to resign to devote himself tc the duties of his position as secretary of the committee for Christian Workers for the United States and Canada. He is member of the committee. which consists of:
 Rev. R. A. Torrey, chairman, City Missionary
 Rev John Collins, secretary Gospel Union, New
 Rev s. P Holcombe, Union Gospel mission
 George R. Clarke, Pacific Garden mission, Chica-
 (. N Crittenton, Florence Night mission, New
 Rev. Allen David Reed, pastor Hope church,
 w. B. Howisnd, Toronto yuission union, Toronto, Canada.
 In an interview with Mr. Collins last night he said: The work of the committee is to study the best plan and method of practical Christian work and to bring the results ot their labors so far as possible into the hands of Christian people throughout the country. The object of the work is also to reach classes outside of the manifestations of the churches and to bring them into connec- tion with the churches as far as possible. Mr. Collins will live in this city for the pres eent. His specially will be among boys of the classes mentioned and to strengthen general ly the mission work, field of labor for which he is eminently fitted by his preparation in New Haven. He has been for fourteen years ia the work in this city. He graduated at Yale, class of '75, and at the theological seminary in the class of '78. The various features of the work at English Hall are so we'll known to the public as to need nc. description. An important mat ter follows in connection with this. There is plan on foot and arrangements are being make to unite the city mission work and the gospel mission work under one strong mis- sionary organization, and if these arrange ments are carried out, as they probably will be, Rev. MT. Mosman, now in charge of the city missions, will have general charge. MT. Collins during his stay in the city will have some connection with the work in voluntary capac- ity. The Gospel Union win be carried on as a part of the new work. There has been a number of meetings of prominent men COR nected with the organizations to draw up 8 constitution. A meeting was held last even ing at the office of Attorney L. w. Cleave- land The committee from the Gospel Union are: Rev. Professor L. O. Brastow of Yale, chairman, L. w. Cleavsland, secreta- ry, and Messrs. Hiram Camp, Eli Whitney, A, E. Rowland, Professor H. A. Newton, F. 0. Sherman, Charles E. Graves.

POLICE mATRON QUESTION

A Hearing on the Subject Last Evening Addresses by Rev. MT. S4uires, Prof. Baldwin, Judge sheldon ana others. There was a large attendance last evening at the hearing given by the committee on the subject of having police matron at police headquarters.
 Rev. L. Fl. Squires of the Church of the
 Messiah spokesomewhat as follows upon the subject: During the past year we find that out of 732 arrests of women 432 of them are in a state of drunkenness. Women that are
 brought into the lookup ought to have the care of matron, as they need someone to look after them. And another consideration is patent when we consider their ages. Of 732 brought into the lookup probably over thirty-six were under twenty years of age and for most of these it was their first arrest If there was somebody to look after them they might be reclaimed. We find that in three days out of four women are brought in and that the extent and frequency of this class of arrests shows that the matron would have plenty to do. For year and half women
 of this city have been making inquiries as to a suitable room for the matron. They find that the janitor's room is best suited for that
 purpose and it can be prepared at least ex
 pense. Your petitioners would not object to any other room that your committee might select This idea has in all casses approved itself. I would like New Haven to rank with the first in the recall and reformation of criminals. do not care about your politics, but I venture to say that if you grant this it will be one of the best features of your ad- ministration. I am glad to compliment the officers of this city on their good care of criminals. Women have to be examined when they are arrested and the matron could best do this. When they are drunk and dir ty they need someone to care for them. In New York city they have five matrons.
 Professor Simeon E. Baldwin was the next speaker in favor of the subject and urged the necessity of having matron and using the
 ianitor's room. He urged giving the plan g trial for one year.
 Judge Sheldon then spoke. It seems to
 me that this thing ought not to need much
 argument in it's favor. A woman arrested ought to have some good woman to look after her in the lookup. A good many young girls
 look out for them. Not 8 city in the Union that has tried this thing has given it up Whether you have 8 matron or not hope you will fix place so that the women will be more removed from the men.
 Mrs. Dr. Murray was the first lady speaker. She said that throughout Europe they had police matrons, and am told that they have
 large numbers of young girls to care for.
 Others who spoke were Justus s. Hotchkiss,
 Police Commissioner Charles A. Baldwin,
 John G. Chapman, Mrs. Leeds and Thomas R. Hooker.
 The committee then went. into executive session, at which they did not reach any de- cision.
