Mr. Miller's figures are about $500, 200:
This difference. however, is explained
by the fact that Mr.. Miller has figured

Some of the appropriatiOns that have

Some Of the APPROPRIATIONS That nave
been asked are in excess of what is al
lowed by the law. For instance, the
permanent improvement fund cannot
exceed 2.5 mills and the general fund
cannot exceed mills. The library,
park and school boards ask for the limit
and the other departments are higher
than they were year ago.
As it has been determined not to al
low the levy to run above % mills, the
list of public improvements will prooa-
bly, be still further curtailed, and some
of the city departments will have to be
contented with much less than they
have asked for.

New Haven Wins A Asain-New Britain
 Goes Down Before Our Conquering
 Heroes-New Haven Plays a ssSub,,
 and W1ns-W. Whiting as "Gentle
 Willie.''
 The game last night at the rink showed conclusively the superiority of the local team. With w. Whiting rushing and a substitute, Porter, at center, they defeated New Britain by score of 6 to 3.
 Play started off tamely, but soon became lively. Wodtke and w. Whiting kept driving for the goal and the whole New Britain team were around their goal. Meade, who is substitute half-back for New Britain, broke his skate. He went off the floor and by good playing New Britain kept New Haven from making goal until he got back. Shortly after he got back, however, Wodtke poked the ball by Lations for goal.
 The next goal was made in short order Roberts took the rush, but Wodtke stopped him and brought the ball up the rink, caging it in thirteen seconds.
 The third goal was rather long and the ball came out once on New Haven. w. Whiting got it soon after and made his first goal in the New Haven rink. The next goal was New Britains. Wodtke caged it once, but out it came. Murray passed it up to Roberts, who caged it by pretty drive.
 "Gentle Willy" Whiting caged the next goal, taking the ball from Roberts in front of New Britain's goal. Time, 22 seconds
 The half closed with the score to 1 in New Haven's favor.
 The sixth goal was hard fought, but New Britain suecumbed to the conquerors and another goal went to New Haven's credit.
 The next goal was made very handily. Roberts reached the ball first, knocking it against Wodtke. Wodtke passed all the rest of the New Britain players, including Lations, who rushed out from his cage. New Britain played hard to retrieve its fallen fortunes, and for the next ten min utes it was nip and tuck. Roberts at last got the ball, and by one of his famous jumping rushes brought the ball down the rink. 'Hobe" Whiting stopped him. He got the ball again and made the second goal for his team and the last one of the game. LA There was only one minute and half more to play, and the local team toyed with New Britain just for fun.
 Meade, who played in Canavagn's place, is the man who was tried here at the be- ginning of the season. He has improved wonderfully.
 The makeup of the teams was as fol-

Death of E. RI. Hosmer.

Edward H. Hosmer died last evening at his residence on Grand avenue of consump- ton with which he had been afflicted dur ing the past year. He has been confined indoors nearly all the time during the past three months. The decsesed, who was thirty seven years of age, leaves father, mother, wife and daughter. He never full ly recovered from hemorrhage, which he suffered about year ago. Although he was very ambitious, he has been unable to perform his customary work for the great CT part of the time during the past sum mer. He was employed as master me- chanic by G. J. Moffatt & Go. of State street, and on account of his mechanical ability he was highly esteemed by the firm.
 He enlisted in the National Blues in 1874 and received an honorable discharge after five years of service, and after several months re- enlisted in the same company, where he was one of the most active and popular members of the company. He was one of the best drilled men in the command and took several prizes for best individual drill He was much attached to the con- pany members, with whom he enjoyed 8 well deserved popularity. He was appoint ed color sergeant and at the sham battle at Groton several years ago his colors were the first in the fortress that was captured by his regiment.
 His many years' residence in this city and his genial, pleasing nature gave him an extended acquaintance, his friends and acquaintances being numbered by hun dreds who will learn of his death with ex- treme sadness. He was devoted to his family, who will have much sympathy in their bereavement.
 The funeral will be attended on Thurs day afternoon.

THE WATER CONTRACT

Signed Yesterday by Mayor Sargent.
 Mayor Sargent signed yesterday at his home the contract for the city with the Water company for ten years' supply at $20, 900 a year. As the mayor had been ill recently he had not given the matter his attention before. As yesterday was the fast day for his honor to accept or veto the bill, the contract was presented to him by City Clerk Downes. The mayor eontin- ues to improve and hopes to be out again shortly.
 Mayor Sargent did not veto the bill as he was aware of the fact that if he vetoed it it only meant 8 short delay in it's final acceptance, inasmuch he had every reason to believe that the court of common council would pass it over his veto. Therefore there was nothing to be gained in support of his project for the purchase of the water plant by the city.
 City Clerk Downes sent 8 copy of the order as signed by the mayor to Corpora ton Counsel Driscoll, instructing him to prepare and execute contract with the Water company, in conformity with the terms of the order. The contract will be formally drawn and signed within day or two.
