An Ex-ConvIct Writes to John e.
Healy But Gets Caught at his Came
Caught In the Postomce.
"Murtie" Savage, alias Henry W. Christie,
is again in the clutches of the law. This
time it is for blackmailing. His victim was
John E. Healy, of the firm of Healy &
Bigelow. Mr.. Healy was not caught, how
ever. He was shrswd enough to see through
the scoundrel's scheme. and inside of two
days he had the fellow out of harms way.
Last Saturday morning Mr.. Healy re-
ceived letter from person signing HIM
self Charles w. Freedman. 1t was worded
very cautiously, but yet in such manner as
to see at a glance what the fellows scheme
was. The writer, intimating that he was an
ex-convict, thought he recognized in Mr..
Healy resemblance to a person who had
served time in the Trenton IN. J.) jail. The
writer stated that if the recipient of the let
ter wished to find out what the writer meant
he might write to the address given and he
would find out. The intimation of the let
ter was that if Mr.. Hesly did not hand over
some money that it would be made public
that Mr.. Healy was an ex convict.
Mr.. Healy did not wait. He acted at once,
and within an hours time he had the letter
! in the hands of Supt. Bollman. The latter
wrote letter to "Charles W. Freeman"
telling him that the writer, who was sup
posed to be Mr.. Healy, did not catch the
drift of the letter he had received. In order
| that there might be an understanding be-
tween the two Freeman was asked to call at
Mr.. Healy's Office.
This letter was given to Detective Brewer.
He mailed it, and then made arrangements
with Postmaster English and Assistant Post
master Earle, to be notified when Freeman
called for the letter.
1t was three O'Clock yesterday afternoon,
when man rang the bell at the postofice
delivery window and asked If there were any
letters for Charles W. Freeman. He was
given the decoy letter, and before he had got
outside the postofdce Detective Brewer had
arrested him. -
| The prisoner told Superintendent Bollman
that his name was Martin Savage. He just
got out Of the Bridgeport Jail. He is we'll
known in criminal circles. he Is charged
with attempted blackmailing.

GUS to the employers.
Work at the l.. Candee Rubber company's
continues brisk, and over 200 hands are
earning their full wages.
In the carriage factories work is not driv-
ing, but only moderately active, yet we hear
of no shops where there are any men out of
employment.
At Sargent & Co.. big establishment they
are working nine hours day, but all the
hands are at work.
In nearly all of our factories business is
good and the pay rolls are undiminished,
which means plenty of money for the ena-
ployes and busy Christmas times for the mer-
chants.
Plans for the new building to be erected
by the g. F. Warner Malleable Iron company
are being drawn by Allen & Tyler, the archi-
tects. They will be finished SO that work
may shortly be begun, and the buildings
will be ready for occupancy by next spring.
The company will erect their new works
upon meadow land in the eastern part of the
city, which was purchased mainly from Rus
sell Brothers, the butter dealers of State
street. The land lies between Mill river on
the west, James street, Fair Haven, on the
east, and tho Shore Line railroad tracks on
the north. It was one of the largest pur-
chases of meadow land that has been made
in many years.
The first building to be erected will be a
foundry 200x100 feet. This will be placed
near the Shore Line tracks. It will be used
for malleable iron castings, grey iron castings
and finished work. Later on a second large
structure will be erected as storehouse,
engine and machine shop and rolling room.
The plant will make large addition to the
life of the part of the city in which it is
located. About 100 men are employed by
the company, and work will be started at the
new place in the spring in full blast. Until
then they continue to occupy the old plant,
which the Candee Rubber company bought.

entertainments.


A large audience, including delegation of
the Mobiles of the Mystic Shrine, attended the
6rst performance of "Said Pasha" by the
California Opera company at the Hyperion
Theater last evening. Not much can be said
in praise of the opera, either as musical
composition or a. creator of laughter, but
what music and fun there II In It was sue
cesstully extracted by the unusually good
company of artists which presented 1t.
Messrs. MoWade, Gaillard and Friuman are
all uncommonly good operatio singers. and
although they were all entire strangers
to New Haven audience. they were
very favorably received. Miss Ida Mule,
who made great hit few years ago as
cupid" in the burlesque "Orpheus and
Eurydice," was hardly as successful last evs-
ming. The best singing was done by Miss
Ada Somers, whose pure soprano voice was
heard to good advantage. The comedians,
Aessrs. Frederick Lennox and Stanley Feleh
grew funnier and funnier Is the opera pro-
creased, but there was too little opportunity
given them. The chorus was an exceptional
ly 6ne one, and the scenery also deserves
special mention. The opera will be repeated
this evening.
A strong story Of tine Franco. Prussian
war, full of heroic episodes and fine oppor-
tunities for such artists a. William Rsdmund
and Mrs. Thomas Barry, is Hsrminie, the
piece in which they appeared at Proetor's
last evening. From widely scattered mate
rial Mr.. Redmund has wrought q drama adj
mirably suited to his own talents and those
of his associate, Mrs. Barry. As General
Paul Durand, he did some strong work. In
deed, this we'll drawn character, tempered by
the delicate and harmonious spirit of Her
mimic. his wife, a. conceived by Mrs. Barry,
theless, the plot ID interesting In its unwind-
ing. The support and scenic display was
fair. The piece will DO repeated this and
tomorrow evenings, with . Wednesday
matinee.
GRAND OPERA HOUSE,.
Colonel A. L. Williams, better known as
Keystone Bill, drew . good audience to the
Grand last night to witness the unrollinR of
his thrilling border play, 1.-THE Lost Scout,
or King Of the Prairies." The colonel did
finely, and Wild Bert, the rife dead shot,
called forth rounds of applause. The COM
pany remains at the Grand through the frat
half of the week.
1t ID evident that the appearance of this
distinguished italian tragsdian at the Hype-
rion on Saturday evening will be welcomed
by the largest and most high GLASS audiences
Of the season. Samson, the heroic piece in
which this great actor will appear, is play
- novel - 1t II strong and picturesque, and
and In IL Signor Salvini has done some of the
finest acting in his life.
