CouNeueioh VIII ooop1J onneu oA Soh5uAso tions with probable members of the com mittee on resolutions, shows that the tar if plank will be the principal issue on which 1t will be bought to run the cam paign, but the force bill will come in for almost an equal share of attention.
 The tariff plank will not differ much from the tariff plank of 1888.
 A special plank will be devoted to the Mckinley bill, which will be denounced as being framed for the advantage of special classes and fostering trusts and raising prices. The platform will demand the trusts.
 There may be recommended legislation which will remove the duty on articles controlled by trusts. The force bill plank will be ringing declaration against plac- ing the polls in the hands of federal office holders.
 The silver plank will be very general in it's terms. Gold and silver, the plat form will probably say, have always been the money of the people of the United by the republican party is likely to be assailed. The international conference will be covered. The bill lion dollar congress will be de- nounced for e1travagance. The con- duct of the pension office is likely to be especially condemned.

 Henry '. Scott Kpjarsd in the Bsnedict
 q Burnham Yard.
 What came near being another fatality occurred at the yards of the Benedict & Burnham Manufacturing company shortly after 9 o'clock this morning.
 Henry J. Scott, of 206 Baldwin street, is employed by the company as assist ant to Engineer Crane, who has charge of the switch engine that runs on the recently constructed track from the Naugatuck tracks to the company's yard. It is Scott's duty among other things to act as trackmaster. This morning he started to open the Jewelry street gate to allow the switcher to push two box cars over to the Naugatuck yards. The switcher was back of the two cars. In crossing the track Scott clipped in the deep snow and fell be- tween the tracks in front of the ap- preaching cara. He was pushed along the track for some distance. The engi- neer heard his cries and stopped the small train. Scott was conscious when picked up. He was suffering from a deep cut in the left leg and severe but not fatal internal injuries.
 The officials at the factory say that il is surprising that the man did not re ceive more serious injuries. Had ht fell directly across, instead of between the tracks, he would very probably have been killed. He was removed tC his home on Baldwin street.

AMUSEME MENTS.
.tShenandonh.n

One of the newest and best plays on the stage to-day is Bronson Towards Shenandoah" which will be presented at the opera house Thursday evening next. There is nothing in the moral of "Shenandoah" that can be said to be out of date. Its moral is the grand old watchword of patriotism. It's story is the old, old story of love and heroism. It exalts love of country above ali other loves, and thus furnishes moral which is being much too often suppressed in this age of artistic inanity.

The Passenger Schedule on Both Roads
 Knocked Out.
 The heavy fall of snow has played bobs with the passenger traffic on the railroads entering Waterbury, the New England being the worst sufferer. The eight o'clock train from Hartford was more than two hours late this morning, arriving here only few minutes ahead of the 9:30 train which was over an hour late. The crew of the latter train were pretty well Jagged out, having been on duty almost continuously since before six o'clock yesterday morning. They left Bristol at daybreak yesterday and made several short runs during the day. The last trip was from Hartford at S:20 last night. The train was stalled sever. al times and it was nearly o'clock this morning when Bristol was reached To make matters worse, the engine left the track in the yard at that place and mat ters were not lighted until few min utes before the train had to be turned again in the direction of Hartford.
 The trains on the Naugatuck division were all late this morning. On the little Watertown branch there was a big blockade of snow at Welton's cut. Conductor Cook left Watertown at 6:43 a. m., for Waterbury. When he got to Welton's cut he could not get through. He ran his train back to Watertown and telephoned eto Superintendent Beach. Help was sent to remove the snow. The train reached here at 9:3O. The 11:17 tram from Bridgeport was over an hour late. The afternoon trains are on time.
 A freight engine on the New England road ran off the track at Plainville shortly after o'clock this morning. The accident was caused by the snow packing in the frog at the switch. A loaded freight car was thrown off the trackin the yard at Bristol this morning, in such a way that the main tracks are blocked and passenger trains are worked around a siding,

 Yesterday Morning.
 At o'clock yesterday morning the St Bernard's Roman Catholic church. at Tariffville, was entirely destroyed bv fire. Owing to the fact of there being no fire companies, or means of putting out fire, the citizens, though they turned out en masse, could not save the property. The estimated loss on the building is $10, 900, and it is said to be insured for $S,OOO. Father Walsh was formerly the popular and zealous assist ant at the church of the Immaculate Conception in this city, and his many friends here will he pained to hear of his loss. Besides the church destroyed by fire, he had charge of a very neat little mlssion church at Bloomfield. Father Walsh will at once begin the erection of Q more durable and hand- some church building on or near fi1al nafne site at TnriT Tvflles

No Pin Holes In the Mo-
 klnIey Bill. KeIIY'S Advice to the Democrats.

Let the tariff alone because you can &C., complish nothing, and fruitless agitation will disgust the country. Muzzle the fanitics and the cranks who want to revo- Iutionize the currency, for 8 financial panic will not help you in the election this year. Attend to business practically such as making appropriation for the Waterbury post office and such other needed public improvements with not too much expenditure of time in partisanship, and the country will then have less fear of another democratic administration. Raise no disturbance about persons in the pen sion bureau, the census bureau and var ious other branches of public service. As for investigation, very good; let the light shine, but it may be remembered that when Mir Springer's committee investi- gated the electoral fraud of 1877, it found a great deal more than 1t wanted, and when Mir Rosecrans took of the roof of the treasury, the supposed discrepancy of two cents in thirty years, did not help him much; and when the leading Rrccers of Waterbury tried to advance the price of eggs to 85c per dog, and Kelly ham. mered them down to 22c and they stayed there, was the time Kelly came out on ton.

William Sullivan Couldn't Swear He
Had Been Robbed.
The Police Court found time between
the cases Of illegal voters yesterday to
dispose of the following offenders:
All 10y, charged with gaming, was ar
raigned and pleaded guilty. Judgment
was reserved until to-day in his case.
John Mullen was found guilty of va
grancy, and will also learn the penalty
to-day.
7. Hewlett was examined for the at
tempted robbery Of William Sullivan on
Front street. One witness testified to
having seen Hewlett lead Sullivan off
and go through his pock cts.
Chief Rodgers testified to having ar
rested Hewlett where he was hiding un-
der a stairway, and the case looked bad
for the defendant until Sullivan took the
stand.
Sullivan testified that he was so drunk
he didn't know whether he had been
robbed or not. Someone's took hold of
him, he said, and tried to drag him off
but he couldn't identity Howlett.
When asked the direct question by the
Judge, "Can you swear to having been
robbed of anything?'' he replied that he
could not. He had changed S. in the
morning of that day and had 40 cents left
when arrested, but whether or not he had
spent 81 60 for his jag he was unable to
say.
Judge Cravens decided that it would be
useless to hold Hewlett on the testimony.

You state that the result of the vote on

This means that if majority of the
votes cast on the school question are in
the affirmative, the question is carried.
1t has nothing TO do with the votes cast
for Presidential Electors, Congressman,

1t cannot be maintained that the votes

the majority vote. The Act does not
designate any officers whose votes are to
be taken as a criterion.
