BIRMINGHAM RECOVERING
From the Effects of Its Recent Dis
aster-The Company's Stock Falls
to Par.
BIRMINGHAM. Jan. Robustness is again
picking up after the recent catastrophes
by wind and food. The manufacturers
are of a more hopeful nature and all bent
on making the most of hard position. It
is estimated that over 1900 persons are
thrown out of employment temporarily by
the breaking of the dam, but their en-
forced idleness will undoubtedly be of
short duration. The Ousatonic Water
company's stock, which a short time ago
sold for 100, Immediately after the disas-
ter dropped to par and little lower, but
has since been picking up.
The loss to the company is even seyerer
than was at first anticipated. About thir
ty feet from the remaining portion of the
dam will probably have to be removed as
a wide crack extends at that distance from
nearly top to bottom of the wall. It will
take fully $3.50, 900 to repair the whole
structure.
A large force of inemen have been at
work to-day repairing the wires and it is
expected that in short time the damage
viii be repaired. An effort was made to
run the electric cars this morning, but 1t
was useless, owing to the fact that num-
her Of the poles were blown down.

The Late Frederick Reilly.

The funeral of Frederick Temple Reilly,
only son of Harriet A. and the late DR..
Edward H. Reilly, will be held this after
noon from the residence of A. G. Cham
berlin. The young man died suddenly of
consumption few days ago in Denver,
Colorado, where he had gone for the bene-
fit of his health. He leaves mother and
two sisters, one of whom is Mrs. Berkley
Merwin of New York city. DR.. Reilly,
the young mans father, died some years
ago. For thirty years he was druggist
at State street and Grand avenue and he
was for years surgeon in the Second reg
iment. Before leaving this city the young
man was employed at the tailor establish
ment of e. P. Merwin on Chapel street
and was widely and favorably known. His
death is mourned by many friends and
acquaintance. he was twenty-three years
and Eve months of age. The remains ar
rived here from New York by boat last
evening and came by q. s. express to New
York from Denver.

THE POLO wORLD.

The meriden Team Receives It's
waterloo at the Hands of the Local
Team-Wh1ting,s Great Work at
Half-baek.
The Meriden team were clearly outplayed
in the game last evening at the local rink
and, in consequence, received one of the
worst defeats they have sustained this
season. The visitors were undoubtedly
weakened by the absence of Null Smith
from his accustomed position, but the
home team played to win last night and
no combination could have beaten them.
Al Hill, who three years ago was captain
of the New Haven team, attempted to play
half-back for the visitors, but his efforts
could hardly be called successful. He
plainly showed evidence of lack of prac-
tice, and left the floor at the end of the
first inning and did not reappear until the
sixth, owing to some difficulty with his
skates The Meriden team put up very
rough game and were constantly fouled in
consequence. Cunningham deliberately
threw Whiting to the floor, knocking the
wind completely out of him, and was fined
So for so doing. Several members of the
team were repeatedly Kissed by the audi
ence for their rough TACTICS, and finally
Referee O'Malley was obliged to call them
down by threatening to fine them very
heavily instead of calling fouls on them.
Curley was knocked out by the ball on a
hot drive from Newcombe's polo stick and
compelled to rest for few minutes, but
pluckily resumed playing. A curious
feature of the game was in the eleventh
goal, when Curley, after making phe-
nomenal stop of hot ball, by a backward
kick through the netting scored a goal for
New Haven. Referee O'Malley, however,
| decided to give the credit of caging the
| ball to Newcombe.
The playing of Whiting last evening
was revelation to even his most ardent
admirers, and his blocking and passing
was some of the best ever seen in the local
rink. He always seemed to be in just the
| right place at the right time, and was re-
peated1y cheered to the echo for his fine
| work. The home team had hard luck in the
| first part of the game, caging three goals
in succession, only to have them come Out
of the cage again. The attendance was
quite encouraging, nearly 1000 persons
| being present. The score:
