About silver,

Ihave expressed my belief that for a
year or two no special results ay be ex-
pected from the new act. But here again
the enormous part which the banking
medium Of exchange plays in modern i'm
dustry may lead to unexpected results.
The very expectations of initiation may
bring imitation. If people in general be-
lieve hi the silver issues Will raise
prices, if they feel disposed in consequence
to extend their business operations and
speculations, and if the banks. on the
other hand, are in a position to respond
to a demand for increased accommodate
ton, then the expected will happen
merely because it is expected. A
swing in business will set in;
the silver notes will at Once
stimulate the upward movement, and
will be the more readily absorbed because
of it; prices will rise; aud for awhile
some persons will gain and a great many
will think they are gaining. A turn of
fhis sort may forestall some of the effects
which otherwise would not show them
selves till after the lapse of a year or two.
Possibilities OF this sort present still an
other illustration of the peculiarly sensi-
tive and expansive character of medi-
um of exchange, and of the uncertainty
with which we must asgal the results OF

APRoPos, why should the liquor

the mi of any political party. We
suppose, like other men, they have
opinions Of their own. Some are re-
publicans, and some are democrats.
Why don't they vote theirown tickets
and have no more nonsense about 1t.
The Democratic party has no use
for them as a class or an organization.
They are positively detrimental to it,

We wonder whether the Liquor
Dealers will be fooled into selling
their support to Bob Davis in return
for his false and deceitful promise to
deliver over to them the Assembly
vote OF Hudson County for the pass
sage of their proposed low license law.
II they do, they are fools of the first
water.
We have shown by a series of inter-
views that Davis had absolutely no
right or authority to pledge the votes
and consciences of the Democratic
Assembly candidates. Seven out of
the ten in this county have been
heard from, and they not only repu-
diate the engagement which Davis
offered to make, but. further, they repu-
diate it with manly vigor.
Mr.. Davis cannot deliver the goods
he offers for sale to the liquor men.
He is playing a sort of political green
goods game with them. The question
Of superlative interest is, Will they let
themselves be swindled in that way?

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.
Two Men "Held Up" by Road Agents
Near Hartford Last Night.

HARTFORD, July 29.-H. II. Bangs,
who is with the w. +. Adams company
of Springfield, and H. E. Bradley, who
keeps a paint and paper store in this
city, were the victims of a murderous
assault on the Tariffville road about 10
o'clock last night. The result was that
Mr. Bangs received a broken arm, lost a
silver watch and about $50.
Yesterday afternoon the two men
started with Mr. Bradley's private team to
go to Tariffville to visit Dan Reed, the
proprietor of the Tunxis house. When
they were almost into North Bloomfield,
about 10 o'clock, two men sprang out
from the side of the road, one of them
cooking his gun and shouting: "Hold
up! Give us all you've got !" At the
same time he grasped the horse by the
bride. The other highwayman sprang
between the wheels and seized Mr. Bangs,
at the same time demanding what he
had. Mr. Bangs handed him a silver
watch telling him that was all he had.
The robber then struck Mr. Bangs with
either a club or his gunstock, breaking
his arm. He then rifled Mr. Bangs peck
ct and shouted to his pal to ''let 60
With his free arm Mr. Bangs then struck
the horse with the whip and the horse
darted.
In moment or two they turned the
horse round and started for home. They
stopped at DR. Browns at Windsor, who
set Mr. Bangs broken arm. 1t was about
o'clock when the men reached this
city and told of their experience.

GERMAN SINGERS IN HARTFORD
Tho Concert ana Prize singing Last
Night.

The Concert and Prize singing Last
Night.
HARTFORD, July 29.-Foot Guard hall
was crowded last evening at the concert
of the German Singing societies. The
concert opened with an overture, fol-
lowed by a selection "Air de Salome,"
by Mrs Jennie Patrick Walker.
After this came the singing in the
third class, in which the same song was
given again and again by several con-
testing societies. 1t was G. Hirsch's
"In der Lenznacht," difficult and not
extremely interesting song. The
societies to give it We're the Liedertafel
of Rockville, the Concordia of Seymour,
the Leiderkranz of Thomaston, the I4yra
of Waterbury, the Mennerchor of Union
City and the LeiderkranZ of Southing-
ton.
In the second class each society sang
"Nachtzauber." The Germania of
Bridgeport was the first and sang
splendidly. The Bergische Harmonic of
New Haven won much applause by
their excellent singing, and it certainly
was we'll deserved. Their leading tenor
was noticeably fine. The II. S. Manner
Choir of New Britain was next, and
some of it's singing was very good. The
Concordia of Bridgeport followed. Their
singing was beautiful and their enuncia-
ton perfect.
In the prize singing of the first class
the song "Auf Offener See" was sung.
The Concordia of Waterbury was the
first society to be heard and their excel
lent singing called forth the most
tumultuous applause. The Hartford
Mennerchor was the only other con-
testant, and although they had a great
amount of Waterbury enthusiasm to
overcome they did admirably and it is a
question which society will have the
prizes.
After the concert the societies formed
in torchlight procession and marched to
Germania hall. Before entering, how
ever, they sang that grand old song 'Das
list Ger Tag des Herrn." This was finely
done and nearly one thousand voices
swelled the grand chorus.
1t is the general opinion that the Con
cordia of Waterbury will win in the first
class; Concordia of Bridgeport, i'll second,
third. The judges will render their de-
cision at 9 o'clock.

ACCIDENT AND INCIDENT.
\ Leete Island Man Has Two Horses

~ Leete Island Man Has Two Horses
Killed BV the Cars.
There was quite serious accident at
Leete's Island Sunday night. Two
place were killed by the Guilford ac-
commodation which was due there at
1925 D. m. The animals had been
turned loose to feed by the roadside, as
is done in that locality quite frequently,
and gradually they worked their way
close to the track. When the cars came
along they were frightened and started
down the track, but were no match for
the train. The engine struck both of
the horses square and made frightful
work, killing them almost instantly.
They were mangled horribly. Mr. Gay
estimates that his loss is fully $500.

FEWER WATERBURY PRISONERS.
A small Number OF Male Inmates at
the County Jail.

the County jail.
Says the New Haven Register of last
night: The smallest number of male
prisoners at the New Haven county jail
in ten years is there now. There are 15S
male criminals in the institution and 30
women. The average, when crime is
ripe, is about go or 215 male prisoners a
week and 80 females.
Some special stress, perhaps, might he
laid on the fact that Waterbury, which,
in proportion to its population, is about
as wicked as any other city in the state,
has not of late been so liberal in her
criminal donations to the county Jail.
Those conversant with the facts theo-
rize that the Waterbury authorities have
been for several weeks indulging in a
discrimination against the county Jail.
These officials say that there is a work
house in Waterbury, a part of che aims
house of that city. BY some method
known to the local minds of Waterbury
the almshouse authorities are allowed to
carry off the cream as it were of the
criminals sentenced by the police court.
This class of criminals, able-bodied men,
muscular fellows who can perform few
days work when a stern disciplinarian
stands over them, are gobbled up for
employment in the workhouse. Ordi-
narily and also according to the custom
prevailing for many years, these jail
birds were landed in the New Haven
county Jail to serve out their sentences.
Now by going to the workhouse they es-
cape the Jail but are compelled to labor
just the same, possibly at breaking
stone, saving wood or farming. Gaming
chairs or shoe making would be their
occupation in the county jail.
There is an idea abroad in the breast
of the New Haven Jail official that the
discrimination of Waterbury is finer in
calibre than it is pleasing or convenient,
not to say n word at all about the pos
sible illegality of directing the tide of
criminals from the Jail to the workhouse.
1t has been casually observed that nearly
all the tough cases, those prisoners who
are inclined to rebel at the Jail discipline
and who would prefer life of absolute
idleness in Jail to any exercise in the
workshop for the benefit of the county,
are invariably shipped to the Jail. They
might make trouble in a workhouse and
can be handled better in Jail. Still the
New Haven Jail officials have no fear
about receiving such troublesome prison
ers and are confident of enforcing the
discipline.
