A Commercial Congress to Be Held
at Denver.

A Commercial Congress to Be Held
at Denver.
A circular letter is being circulated
calling for convention at Denver,.as
follows:
The commercial congress which is to
convene in this city (Denver) on the
10th of May, will be the first organized
effort toward uniting the country west
OF the Mississippi, for the promotion of
the general welfare of the states and
territories included in this great natural
division of our country. 1t will not be a
political meeting in partisan sense, but
will be composed OF representatives who
will labor to bring about a union OF
strength Of that generally prevailing
sentiment among the people of the west,
that the great country lying west of the
Mississippi river, and the questions Of
peculiar interest to it, have been ignored
or unjustly treated by the national con-
gress. We appeal to you through the
columns of your paper to arouse inter-
est in the commercial congress, and
urge the selection of the best possible
representatives from your county, city
and state.
During the trades display held at Gal
weston, Texas, from February 9TH to 10th
inclusive, meeting of the representa-
tives of seventeen states and territories
west OF the Mississippi was held, at
which arrangements were made for hold
ing trans Mississippi commercial con-
gress, to be composed of delegates from
all the states and territories west of the
Mississippi. Several cities competed for
the honor of entertaining the conven-
tion. among the members being Wich-
ita, Kansas City and Denver. A major
ity having voted for Denver, the cham
ber of commerce of this city has under
taken to do all things necessary to make
the congress success. The outlook for
a very large and general attendance is
extremely flattering.
Denver appreciates the honor OF being
the first city in which regularly called
meeting Of the representatives of the
great west is to be held, and will leave
nothing undone to make the occasion
one long to be remembered by those who
honor her with their presence.
Among the questions to be considered
will be:
Legislation affecting commerce, trans
portation and finance.
Improvement OF waterways, lake, gulf
and Pacific ports.
Markets for western products.
Promotion of manufacturing and agri-
cultural interests.
Irrigation and reclamation of arid
lands.
Western mineral lands and their de-
velopment.
Cause and effects of business combin-
ations and trusts.
Reciprocity and international trade
extension.
The Indian question and opening of
Indian lands, and such other subjects
as may be worthy of consideration.
The scope OF this meeting is very sim
liar to that which convenes at Kansas
City next week, but that one embraces
more than the trans-M Mississippi states.
There is no question about the growing
power of this western territory in poll
tics and business. In the next congress
there will be nearly 130 members from
the states and territories west of the big
river. 1t is an excellent thing to com
bine and confer for the common interests
Of so large and important region.

letter which Miss Dickinson says she
sent to the chairman and secretary of
the state board of charities, and Drs
Morton and Wetherill, of this city, was
received by DR.. Wetherill:who visited
her Immediately, in company with the
attorney of the board, Mr.. Barlow. Dr.
Wetherill today said:
s'We found Miss Dickinson installed
in the most comfortable ward of the
whole institution. The interview was
necessarily brief, because she declined
to talk to us, or, at least, would say very
little. When not actually talking to us,
she walked excitedly up and down the
room, giving utterance to incoherent
words and phrases, and acting exactly
in the manner insane people are accus-
toned to act. Neither Mr.. Barlow, DIR.
Schultz nor myself had the slightest
doubt that she was deranged."

a knowledge of her case. do you think
she is entirely sane now?"

she is insane at the present time. DR..

absence of another examination of Miss
Dickinson, l cannot speak positively OF
her condition.

know what to make of the report in
regard to the unjust incarceration of
Anna Dickinson. She does know that
to her own knowledge, Susan Dickinson
has been most generous, faithful and

lieve Susan Dickinson capable of the
base conduct attributed to her, and
does not see what she could
gain by such a course. The plan for
the fund which is being raised, is that il
shall be placed in the hands of trustees,
only the interest to be paid to Anna
and that it shall be kept as
a permanent fund for the purpose Of
aiding any woman who has given her
life to the public and is no longer able
to care for herself. Miss Willard has
two letters of recent date from Susan
in one of which she speaks
of Anna as having suddenly and vio-
lently turned against her. AS is usual
in such cases. Miss Willard thinks, Anna
Dickinson is the victim of baseless de-
lusion.

An Interesting and Instructive

Yesterdays Waterbury Republican says:
''Mr. Gibson's organ recital at the First
church Monday evening was decided
success. In spite of the 1ateness of the
season and the oppressive heat an audi
ence of some 900 gathered to hear it, and
they were more than repaid for their
trouble. The program was the same as
has already been published in the Republi-
can.
Mrs. Nora Russell Haesche of New
Haven has very fresh and sweet soprano,
which shows evidence of the most skilful
training; her method of attack and the
evenness Of her voice in every part of it's
compass caused her singing to give the
greatest pleasure to the audience, which
was shown by frequent and hearty ap-
plause. After singing the two songs by
Mr.. Gibson, which were upon the pro-
gram, she responded to a recall by sing
ing third song of his composition, eff
My Love Should Prove Unkind," which
has been written within the past few
weeks, and is dedicated to Mrs. Haesche.

Omcial Figures Concerning tho Min.
eral Producing Capacity of the
State.
While taking good rank as manufac-
turing center, Connecticut ia not much of
a mineral producing region. The only
commodities which are produced in the
state are brick clay, friedrich, granite, iron
and mineral waters. This, says the Wash
ington correspondent of the Hartford
Times, is the official declaration of the
geological survey.
In the production of iron ore the Sails
bury region cuts but small figure, as out
of a total of over 5000, 900 tons less than
&C, 900 tons came from Connecticut. Never
theless, it is classed as one of the leading
iron ore districts of the country.
The value of the granite and allied rocks
quarried is estimated at over 81, 900, 900, of
which Connecticut's production is in the
neighborhood of 500, 900. Greenwich and
Sterling are the principal localities for this
trade, while Portland furnishes sandstone
In small quantities.
In the brick industry the state takes
fair rank with an annual output of 1885,

The manufacture of fire bricks does not
show up so well, as but few thousand

Fresh Air Work.

The warm wave nowapon us will serve
to emphasize the call lately made by the
New Haven city missions for help for
their fresh air work this summer. During
the heated season last year over a, thou
sand persons were given through this fund
an opportunity once or more for an ex-
cursion by boat, or cars, or carriage drive.
Much gratitude was expressed by the
many who received this benefit to those
who made it possible, and it is hoped by
those in charge of this department of the
city mission work that many persons who
are yet in town, as well as others who are
absent from the city but not forgetful of
its needs, will see that this fund is abund-
antly provided for. At about this time
last year the cottagers at Woodmont made
up a liberal amount for this fund,
the rector of Trinity Episcopal church
sent fifty dollars as proof of the
interest of his people in this practical form
of Christian work, and sums both large
and small were received by Rev Mr.. Moss
man, the general superintendent, Miss
Hume, the lady missionary, or were left at
English hall or Klock & Mix's for this
fund. Although but few subscriptions
have yet been received, several excursions
are already under arrangement, as the ex-
perience of several years has shown that
there is no lack in New Haven of givers
to the city mission fresh air fund when it
is known that their help is needed

SQUADRON OF EVOLUTION.
Some Facts About the War Vessels

Coming to New London Waters.
NEW LONDON, July 1.-THE vessels of the
squadron of evolution will arrive at New
York this week preparatory to the naval
manauvres that are to take place, as drill
for the New York naval militia, in Long
Island sound the latter part of this month.
This squadron, SO often referred to as the
White squadron, is rather confusing for
the reason that as all of the new vessels
are painted white, those belonging to
other squadrons, like the Philadelphia and
Petrol of the North Atlantic, and the Bal
timore, San Francisco and Charleston on
the Pacific, are sometimes credited as part
of the "White Squadron" or Acting
Rear Admiral Walkers squadron. The

Vesuvius and the torpedo boat Gushing
will join the squadron in New York. The
latter part of next week the Naval Reserve
battalion of New York, under command of
Commander J. W. Miller, will be distrib-

morning of July IS the feet will go up
Long Island sound as far as Fishers
Island for a few days of drill as a naval
militia.
The militia will get pretty good idea of
what navy sailors life is. They will
turn into their hammocks at o'clock at
night and will be turned out early in the
morning to begin the days work. They
will first receive instruction by the divis-
| ion officers as to their duties, and will
| then be permitted to stand by and watch
| the regular guns crews. They will learn
how to use the swabs and the rammers,
how to do in the passing of ammunition
from the magazines and putting it into
the guns; in fact, all of the movements of
| loading, aiming, firing and cleaning the
guns; also how to arm and equip the small
boats and drill with them against an i'm
