AnrI rREE rRApE RALLY.

The First Rig Meeting of the Irish
 Anti Free Trade League Held Last
 Night at the HyPersOn-An mphatie
 and Agressfve speech by Judge Mor-
 risOn Of New York-A Speech that
 Every Workingman and Irish Amer
 ican Should Read-stIr1ing Address
 by Hon. John A. T1bbfts.
 The anti-free trade rally of the Irish Anti- Free Trade League, of this city, in the Hy- perion theatre last night was grand success. The crowd that attended included very many voters and, despite the damp weather there were large number of ladies present. The speakers were Judge A. L. Morrison of New York and John L. Tibbits of New London. Thomas J. Sullivan presided. The addresses were not mere partisan harangues but sober, earnest, conclusive appeals which undoubt- edly had great weight with the thinking voters who heard them. MT. Morrison's ad- dress was intensely interesting, and though he spoke for over an hour he held the audis ence enrapt, the enthusiasm breaking out into frequent demonstrative applause.
 It was evident at the start that few hood. lums were in the audience with the determi. nation to "rattle" the chief speaker, but their efforts were dismal failures and served bnt to awaken the orators mettle and put an added snap and vim into his caustic remarks.
 The meeting was opened promptly at o'clock, when Hugh Daily escorted the speak CTS from the Republican league room to the stage, and the Republican colored quartet sang "Who will be our next presidenta' The cong was great hit, and the young men were loudly applauded and had to sing again. They were called for yet again, but were fol lowed by the Young Mems Glee club who were also enthusiastically received. The quartet sang twice after the list of vice-pres. idents had been read. After Chairman Daily had announced the future Republican rallies the following list of vice-presidents and sec retaries was read and elected, and the men took their places on the platform

TO DRIVE THE SPIKE.

l The Last Spike 10 Mark she ComPle- tiOn of she New Derby Road EKsen- SIOn to Be Driven To-Day. Monday the first passenger train ran over | the new Derby road extension, and to-day a special train of three passenger cars carrying the members of the press will go over the road to the place where the golden spike will be driven, with proper dedication exersises. The extension begins at point about thirty | feet from the end of the bridge of the Derby railroad, at Derby, and after running over the old Derby bridge tor LOGO feet, the track ] divergss to the new trestle, by which the in tervening meadow land and the Housatonic river is spanned, and terminating on the Shelton side. The road then runs through some of the most beautiful parts of the Hou. satonic valley, sometimes between rock cuts, and then again over trestles, then through perfectly open country, in the towns of Hunt ington and Monroe, until it finally connects with the Housatonic road few hundred feet from Horse Shoe curve, where the spike is to be driven to-day. Among some of the prin- cipal places on the new road are the trestle near Derby, which is {, 300 feet long, and which will be called the Starbuck trestle, af- ter MT. William Fl. Starbuck. Next comes the 500 foot rock cut; which shows what some of the work was, and after running
 
 Hill trestle, which is 3s0 feet long and and forty-three feet high. This trestle is built of yellow pine timbers. and will be filled with gravel to make it still more sub stantial Beyond this trestle short distance is horseshoe curve, which extends for nearly 1,2OO feat along high embankment, along side of which rolls the Housatonic, and here we obtain.the most beautiful views, and here a small flag marks the spot where the last rail was laid and where to-day the spike will be driven. Work on this extension was be- gun August 21 and the last rail laid October 3, which was very quick time, and much credit is due President W. H. Stevenson and Superintendent J. P. Hopson who directed the work. The train which will carry the invited guests will be made up of the Derby road passenger ooach No. 7, the Housatonic road combination car No. 1e, and passenger coaches 03 and 95, drawn by engine No. 5. It will leave the Derby depot shortly after 10 o'clock. After the impressive services at tending the driving of the silver spike, the guests will be taken over the Housatonic road to New Milford where there will be ban
