To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
An evening paper, in its yesterdays
issue, makes the astounding statement that
"the impression has been that the bones
of Campbell were underneath the monu-
ment. A search not long ago failed to
bring them to light" ,&'
The impression has been that they were
in the grave known as 'Campbells grave"
ever since Campbell was buried there on
the night of July 5, 1779. No one ever
supposed that the bones were "under-
meath the monument" The monument
stands some seventy-fve feet from the
grave. The fact that Campbell was buried
con Allingtown heights" is as well estab-
lished as any fact in history. The grave
was pointed out to gentleman now living
by one of the men who buried the dead

Colonel Trumbull, the Revolutionary
painter, drew, not long after the event, an

of Rev. Samuel Williston. That picture is

copied and published in, one of our city
It would not be wonderful if "those

is not known, the stone erected by Barber,

road, not far from the monument and
buried in the southwest corner Of the Al

house stood on the green opposite the col
leges. 1t is doubtful If any one could go

a PROPOSED NAyAL mILITIA.

The Chamber of Commerce Appoints
Committee to Urge a State Naval
Reserve.
The meeting of the Chamber of Com
MERGE last night was thinly attended, as q
large proportion of the members are away
on their summer vacations. In spite of
this, business Of great interest to the peo-
pie of New Haven was transacted. The
chamber decided, after considerable dis
cussion, to appoint a committee to urge
the establishment of Connecticut naval
reserve. Mr.. Frank M. Sperry made an
able speech in favor of the proposed
scheme. The naval reserve which the
| national government is seeking to organ
| ize in all the seaboard states is an organize
ton analogous to the land militia. Citiaen
volunteers are trained in the management
| of war ships and the handling of ord
nance. Expenses are borne by the states,
and the force is ready to be made use of
in any naval contest in which the United
| States may be driven. Once every
| year the reserves spend week
| on the water in various maneuvres
and evolutions. Mr.. Sperry, after unfold.
ing the details Of the plan, stated his belief
that volunteer naval force would greatly
| strenthen the position of the United States
as a naval power. A short extract was
then read from speech delivered by Mr..
Barnes, member of the New Haven cham
Der, at the meeting of the National Board
| of Trade in 1888. Connecticut was spend
ing 100000 to supply 1900 militia. Land
forces are excellent in their way, but if the
country ever went to war it would be at
tackled by foreign war ships on the eastern
coast. The Whittemore bill had appro-
priated 81 100000 for the purpose of start
ing these reserves, and it only needed the
hearty cooperation of the state to make
| the plan a success.
President Easterbrook appointed as the
committee to take the necessary steps look.
ing to the formation of naval militia the
following gentlemen: Messrs. Sperry
Buell., Stannard, Townsend, Leach, Os
made to interest the New Haven Yacht
club in the establishment of the New Ha-
| ven Reserve. An instructor will probably
be hired to give lessons in naval tactics
Many of the members of the chamber OF
commerce expect that a year from to-day
may be witnessed off the New Haven har.
Dor the evolutions of squadron of state
volunteers. 1t is prophesied that an or,
ganization of the kind proposed will be
even more popular than the Connecticut
| National Guard.
Outside of the consideration of naval
matters the chamber transacted only rou
| tine business. The revised bylaws were
read by Secretary Gallagher and accepted
1t was ordered that one thousand copies be
printed of the new roster of the board
After a session lasting about three-quarteri
of an hour the chamber adjourned unit

The Proposed Odd Fellows Home
Lodges Taking Aetion-Surgical-
Death of a Liveryman.
Odd Fellows lodges all over the state are
discussing the question of an Odd Fellows
home. At the last session of the grand
lodge Judge Cowles of Waterbury, and at
present grand master of the state, made q
proposition to give fifty acres of land near
Waterbury for an Odd Fellows home if
the several lodges in the state would raise
the sum necessary for the erection of
buildings. 1t is proposed to levy tax of
81 per year on each member of the order
in the state. AS there are about Is, 900
members, the amount required for hand
some and substantial buildings could in a
few years be raised, and with scarce any
one member feeling the outlay. The lodges
throughout the state are voting on the
question, and soon the state officers of the
order will know what the feeling is regard
ing the home. 1t is to be hoped that the
members will see the matter in the light
of a great benefaction, as other states have
already found these homes to be. The
grand officers are heartily in favor of the
idea

MIR. HUMANS ABSENCE.

More Investigation Necessary-The
Opinion Strengthened That He Has
Not Committed Suicide.
Recent developments in the case of John
S. Hinman, who disappeared unaccounta-
bly, on Sunday evening, do not strengthen
the suicide theory, which at first was sup
posed to be the correct one, judging from
the contents and tone of the letter left by
Mr.. Hinman, which indicated that he in
tended to drown himself. There is no
doubt about the letters being genuine and
it was the original letter which the
COURIER published.
More investigation is necessary before it
is safe to state that any of the theories ad-
vanced are correct. = 1t is quite certain
that Mr.. Human was seen in Custom
House square on Sunday evening, as a re-
liable citizen has made the statement that
he not only met Mr.. Hinman there, but
stopped for short chat with him. At
this time Mr.. Hinman was going towards
the depot. Whether Mr.. Hinman was on
his way to some obscure place to end his
life or whether he left town by the train is
not known. He may have started away
full of the intention of ending his life and
changed his mind from some unexpected
or accidental diversion or turn of ideas.
Many who know something of the case are
of the opinion that the man is alive and
far from home.
The statement has been made that Hin
man has talked with several employees of
Sargent & Co. about going west, and that
he has been in correspondence with hard
ware manufacturers at Pittsburg, Penn,
Chicago and Cincinnati, because he had
become discouraged with his present con-
tract at Sargent & Co.'s and was DESTROYS
of making change, and desired to enlist
others in the same scheme. A gentleman
who knows him well says that If he were
sent to look for Hinman he would first 90
to Pittsburg and then to Chicago and
thence to Cincinnati, and he believed that
before he reached the latter place he would
overtake him.
Last Saturday he drew from Sargent &
Co. large sum of money and took it all
with him when he disappeared.

NO WORKHOUSE YET.
The Town Meeting Unceremon NOUS

The Town Meeting Unceremontously
Postpones the Project.
The special town meeting called for the
purpose of making an appropriation to
build workhouse was held in Music hall
on Church street yesterday afternoon. An
attendance of 400 showed the interest of
the taxpayers in the project. All the
selectmen were present, besides Joel A.

Town Agent Clarity called the meeting
to order and introduced Isaac Wolfe as
moderator. Town Clerk Brethauer read
the call for the meeting.
The request of the park commission for
the sale Of piece of town land in Fair
Haven, the proceeds of which were to be
given to the park commission for use in
COAA0Ct4OA W1tA tAAC DCe1COn ILL PUN, was
taken up first. A vote was passed author
izing the selectmen to make the sale at a
price not less than $500 and to use the
proceeds as requested.
The town clerk read resolution, that,
as the sum of $25, 900 appropriated at a
former meeting for the erection of work
house would be insufficient for the pur-
pose, an extra sum be appropriated by the
meeting then in session.
The workhouse matter was then taken
up and quickly disposed Of. George
Hotchkiss, I'd, was on his feet, and said
these few words, which voiced the SEN
timent of tho meeting: s'I see no good rea-
son for building a workhouse. We have
all the warehouses we want in our jails
and almshouse."
This observation was received with loud
applause. Joel A. Sperry moved that the
matter be indefinitely postponed. The mo-
ton was seconded and carried by large
majority. The meeting then adjourned.
