FOUL PLAY sUsPncrED.
Roxbury People Believe That Geor9,
F. Leavenworth Was Murdered.

Roxbury People Believe That George
F. Leavenworth Was Murdered.
RoxBURY, June 1.-THE belief that
there was foul play connected with the
death of George F. Leavenworth of this
place, who was killed by falling over q
precipice at Southville Saturday night,
has grown steadily during the Last few
hours and it is the general belief that
Coroner Doten, who deemed an investi-
cation necessary, will discover evidence
tending to show that Leavenworth's
death was not the result of an accident.
What motive there would be for murder
no one appears able to tell. It is be-
lieved, however, that Leavenworth was
thrown over the precipice in drunken
fight, despite the medical examiners re-
port to the contrary. Yesterday after
noon Coroner Doten examined five or
six witnesses in the town hall here, and
to-day continued the investigation.
Henry Melville, who was with Leaven-
worth at the time he met his death, and
who sustained serious injuries, was not
in condition to make q statement yester-
day and will probably not be for a
week. There was large crowd in the
town hall to-day. -~

DANNY CORR HOME AGAIN.

Attorney O'Neil Secures His Release
Under Bonds of %, 500.
Danny Corr, accused of the murder of
Thomas Peters, was released on $4,000
bonds this morning. Bonds were fur
nished by his uncle, Joseph Corr.
Attorney O'Neil made application on a
writ of habeas corpus for the appear
ance of Corr before the superior court
in this city, to argue for the admitting
of the prisoner to bail. The grounds on
which the attorney based his demand
for bail were: First, that the complaint
alleged only murder in the second de-
gree, which under the statute was bail
able, and secondly, manslaughter was
the only crime that could possibly be
proven.
Sheriff Gates, on whom the writ of
habeas corpus was served, waited on one
Of the superior court judges in New
Haven yesterday, who decided to avoid
the trip to Waterbury and placed Corr
under 81, 500 bonds.

BOARD OF TRADE BOOK.
What Waterbury Offers as . Plac'
For Residence or Business.

What Waterbury OMers as Place
For Residence or Business.
The long talked-of board of trade book
was issued to-day from the Office of the
Waterbury Printing company. The
book contains twenty-on pages of gen.
eral information in regard to Water
bury, its location, wealth, industries,
G. w. Burpee. Fourteen full page
illustrations of public buildings and
manufactures add beauty to the work.
Some of the points treated follow:
The claims Is made that the actual rate
of taxation in Waterbury is lower than
in any other city in the state. Property
here is listed at an average of not over
IS per cent.
Whereas in 1860 there was about $780,,
600 invested in manufacturing to day
there is over %, 500 600. The many con-
in wages each year upwards of $780,
600.
A slight estimate of the business of
the place may be formed from the fact
that upwards of $50, 900 tons of freight
are handled for Waterbury annually by
the railroads. The annual consumption
of coal is considerably over 15O, 900 tons.
Labor organizations, save those for
the improvement of the citizen, find it
| impossible to get a foothold, and strikes
are almost unknown here.
The annual death rate is remarkably
low. The city is so far. above the sur
face of the sea as to be cool in summer,
and at the same time is 80 protected by
hills as not to be excessively cold in
winter.
The property of the city is valued al
81 ,432 600. The bonded Indebtedness is
$499, 900, floating Indebtedness $98, 900
The school debt is less than $15O,OOO
There is due the city $4,000.
The city enjoys freedom from fires tc
q remarkable degree. The police de
partment has not superior in any
town of it's size in the land. There are
three telegraph offices, four nationa
and one state bank. In the three saw
ings banks the deposits are about 50
OO6, 600.
The schools, public and private. arr
all admirably equipped: There are
seventeen churches and missions.
The Bronson free public library is the
largest and wealthiest in the state.
In conclusion the natural advantages
of Waterbury are summarized as fol
lows: The town is wealthy, substantially
prosperous, has the best of railroad
facilities, fine water power, goot
schools, many churches, unsurpassed
library, desirable sites for, factories
stores or residences, the best of socia
advantages, and earnest, cordial, enter
prisiDY people.

Complaint That the Censns Takers
Have Overlooked Names.

Complaint That tho Censns Takers
Have Overlooked Names.
The seventeen census enumerators
who have been at work getting the sta
tistics of Waterbury, have completed
their work and most of them have sent
their lists to Supervisor Mccarthy. The
census takers have had lively time OF
it, and taking everything into considera-
ton, have done as well as could be ex-
pected. a.,
But that they have failed to collect
many names there is scarcely doubt.
Last night q gentleman called at the
DEoCNRAT Office and stated that Nc
Evoy's block, 283 South Main street, had
not been visited by the enumerator.
Six families, representing more than
thirty people, reside in this block. Ano-
Their gentleman, residing in the Brooklyn
district, also reports that he has not been
visited by the census takers. The fact
was reported to the enumerator for that
district and he explained that a visit
was made to the house in question and
the family being absent, the desired
facts were obtained from the family liv'
ing next door.
It is also said that the enumeratore
have refused to take the names of stu
dents and other who are temporarily
away from home. This is all wrong
Waterbury should get credit for as many
people Is there are here. Unless every
name is placed upon the roll it is doubt
full whether the population will reach
IS, 900.
Supervisor Mccarthy has forwarded
to District Attorney Sill complaint
against round dozen persons who hav'
refused to answer one or more question:
asked by the census enumeration. Thu
supervisor expects that the district attor
ney will issue writs at once for the ar
rest of these persons. The penalty is ,
maximum fine of 500 for each ant
every answer refused.
