POLICE DID NOT INTERFERE.

What Attorney Chamberlain Has to
Say About the Herald"
There was no attempt made by the
police Yesterday to suppress the sale OF
the Bridgeport Sunday Herald, but the
boys on the streets and the newsdealers
were very cautious in the manner in
which copies of the paper were dealt
out. Most of the newsdealers in reply to
inquiries if the paper was for sale at the
newsrooms replied negatively, but added
that they had one copy which they
would sell in order to oblige the caller.
The boys on the street carried the papers
carefully concealed under their coats,
but these precautions were, of course,
unnecessary. On the editorial page Of
the journal it was stated that the pro-
prietors would shortly institute legal
proceedings against Mr. Chamberlain,
claiming $4,000 damages for injury
done the paper, by what they term the
prosecuting attorneys persecution.
In another portion of the paper,
however, the editor claims that Mr.
Chamberlain's action has caused an I'M
precendented boom in their business
affairs. Mr. Chamberlain said last even
ing that he examined a copy of the Her
aid yesterday morning, but noticed that
there was decided change in the
nature of the material contained therein,
compared with the stuff that had been
printed in previous issues. while the
proprietors of the journal continue to
print articles on q par with those printed
in to-day's issue" Mr. Chamberlain said,
1.-The law will not interfere with its sale.
As soon as they go back to the old style,
however, l will Immediately issue orders
to arrest those who attempt to sell the
paper after its sale has been forbidden

MURDER AND SUICIDE.
A Jealous Lover stabs His Rival and
Then Himself.

A Jealous Lover Stabs His Rival ana
Then Himself
ToRRINGToN. June "a terrible stab
bling affray took place in Harwinton
last night, growing out Of dispute over
a young lady named Jennie Hale. The
principals in the affair are Waldo w.
Latham, aged 90, Of Waterbury, and
Leslie Curtis, 21, of Torrington.
Both have been paying attention to
Miss Hale and Latham appeared to bs
the favored one. Yesterday he came
over to spend the day and in the even
ing drove to church with Miss Hale. On
the way home they met Curtis. He
asked to have a few minutes private
conversation with Latham and the latter
alighted from the carriage. After talk
ing quietly a short time the men be-
came excited and exchanged blows.
Curtis then drew knife and stabbed
Latham in the abdomen. The wounded
man fell and Curtis ran away. Latham
was assisted into the carriage by Miss
Hale and driven to her home. Later in
the evening Curtis called at the house
and asked how Latham was. Upon
being told that he was dying Curtis
drew IA knife and stabbed himself several
times over the heart.
He was carried into the house and
sank rapidly. A doctor was summoned
and did all in his power, but there are
no hopes for the recovery of either man.
The medical examiner took the deposi.
ton of both men and the coroner was
notified.
Latham was employed in the
horse Car stables for short
time year ago. His father
resides in this city. Some months ago
he went TO reside near Torrington.-ED]

LARGE FIRE IN COLCHESTER.
The Whole Business Portion of the
Town in Ashes.

The Whole Business Portion of the
Town in Ashes.
COLCHESTER, June 9.-The largest fire
which has ever visited this place broke
out about half past three this morning.
The ground covered by the fire is al
most identically the same as was burned
over about five years ago. The loss is
very great and is estimated to be be-
tween $50, 900 and $50 900, and is much
greater than was caused by the previous
fire owing to the fact that most of the
buildings destroyed are new ones and
more costly.
the Worthington brick block situated in
the center of the town. The fire de-
partment was Immediately called out
and as soon as the inhabitants of the
place heard of the fire they turned out
in large numbers and did all in their
power to check the progress of the
flames. The Worthington block is stu
ated on Main street, and contained be-
sides tenements varnish shop and a
general merchandise sto e. The block
was total loss and the tenants
escaped with difficulty. The furniture
and all the stock in the block were
quickly consumed. The inflammable
nature of the material in the varnish
shop added greatly to the ferceness of
the flames, and the firemen could do
nothing to check them.
The fire quickly spread to Bingham's
wooden block owned by J. NJ. Adams.
The town clerks office and the Col
chester Savings bank, the town library
and Mr. Adams living apartments are
all located in this building, besides q
general merchandise store. The entire
block was soon a mass OF flames and it
was with the greatest difficulty that the
valuable records in the town clerks
Office and the savings bank were saved.
The books were all gotten out in safety.
The entire library was burned together
| with many valuable books.
Kellogg's wooden block was next de-
stroyed. The building was occupied by
the postotfice. a grocery store and a
millinery store. The mail matter was
saved with great difficulty. The build
ing occupied by the Colchester club and
the republican club was next to go.
The flames then attacked Bakers and
Pierce's blocks, occupied by stores,
offices and tenemeDts and both were
burned to ths ground with their con-
tents. Rathbone's livery stable was
next seen in flames and from here the
fire spread to building occupied by
William Scholl as a saloon. This was
entirely consumed and the fire burned
itself out.
The cause Of the fire is unknown but
it is believed to have been of incendiary
origin and an investigation will he
made.

A Mad Dog Scare,

DANIELsoNv1LLE, June "a few
days ago dog owned by H. v. Lathop
showed signs of madness. Before he
was shot, however, he took a trip in the

Finish Fight Between Light Weights
Yesterday Morning.
A prize fight took place in the old
stone mill near Union City Sunday
morning, between two New York par
ties. About IS sports from Waterbury,
Naugatuck and surrounding towns were
present. The ring was pitched on the
ground floor and lanterns served to
throw light on the scene. Henry Muir
ply, proprietor of the sporting palace,
was chosen referee. He introduced the
fighters as Mack of New York and Burns
of Brooklyn. Their real names are sup
posed to be, John Aikens of New York
and John McTinnar of Brooklyn. Each
weighed about $50 pounds. Mack was
in the pink of condition while Burns
was pale and seemed unwell. His stom-
ach troubled him and he fought at
a disadvantage on that account.
Sim Collins, light weight Of
New York, was behind March and
five rounds it was a good fight, neither
having the advantage. In the sixth
round the men clinched and Mack re-
fused to break away when ordered.
Warned by the referee he then
went in to finish his man. He thumped
his man around the ring and just as
time was called Burns fell fiat on his
back. he was carried TO MS corner and
his second tried to revive him for the
next round but he failed to como to
time, and the fight was given to Mack.
Burns was bruised around the head and
face, his lower lip was split. nose almost
broken and his two eyes in a fair way to
close. Mack had the skin all off his
breast, neck and lower part of the face.
He was fresh as at the start while Burns
could scarcely keep his feet. There was
about $3.50 in the purse, two-thirds of
which went to the winner and one third
to the loser. At the close of the fight
some Waterbury sports offered to put a
Waterbury light weight-presumably
Russell-against either Mack, Burns or
Sim Collins for any amount of money.
There were no takers.
