The Electric Plant for the Latter
Railroad Said to Be
Already Ordered.

The stockholders OF the Phoenix, Mt

Yesterday afternoon and elected the
following officers: Benjamin +. Lower,
OF PhWnix, president; Charles V. Barr
Of plainfeld, Mass, vice president; T,
", Hine, treasurer; Warwick Scott
secretary. The secretary was instruct.
ell to secure the publication of the ar.
ticles of Incorporation, the publication
Of the conlpans's bylaws in pamphlet
torn, and also to procure the necessary
office stationery.
Messrs. Spencer and Scott were APP
pointed a committee to confer with
General Churchill and George w.
HOadly with reference 10 obtaining pos
session OF the franchise and right of
way held by those gentlemen, L. l..
Brill and John L. Dennis for an electric
road already described by the REPUBLI-
CAN.
The officials of the Phoenix, Mt. Olive
( Mesa had understood that an electric
plant had been ordered for the Church
i'll line, and the committee was conse-
Quently instructed TO ascertain if this
was so, and also to inquire if any part
Of such plant could be utilized by the
Belt line. Winthrop eastman, a Chi
cago electrical engineer, now in the
city, at the instance of the Phoenix,
Mt, Olive 4 Mesa people, will furnish
this Information.
Engineer Trott in company with
several stock holders OF the company
has been engaged in surveying loca.
ton for the plant on the Arizona canal
about thirty miles from the city.
The location has been nearly agreed
upon and the feasibility of construct
ing dam or conduct to turn the water
into an immense Leffel wheel.
The plant required will have to be
specially constructed and will require
about ninety DAYS for its completion.
In the meantime such work as may be
necessary to prepare for putting in the
plant will be done.
That the Belt Line is assured there is
no longer any doubt among business
men. The gentlemen interested are
well known to be among the most
progressive in the territory. The ex-
perience OF Mr.. Lower in the tumultu-
Gus days OF Kansas City gave him a
training which is invaluable to him at
this particular time. Mr.. Barr the
vice president is prominent capitalist
OF Massachusetts,. Mr.. Hine is too
well known in Arizona to require any
encomium upon his business ability.
The secretary, Mr.. Scott Is an Illinoisan
Of that particular class which is chiefly

There are no lsggards or incompetents
connected with the directory or upon
the list OF stock holders as it now APP

push and enterprise an abundant CAPT

that the Phoenix, Mt. Olive & Mesa is

STARR AND The SPIRITS.

George Barnes, Theodore Oliver, e. M.
Hotchkiss and a Mr. Page Were Gin it's
But Cant Account for 1t.
That Professor Starr and wife are
worthy of the splendid endorsements
they have been receiving in the news
papers throughout New England no one
will dispute who attended their seance
at the City hall last night. If we
should attempt to describe the many won
derfHl tests, phenomena or whatever
1T may be called, we could not begin to
do it justice, but to say that the STAIRS
are both of them clear "out of sight" of
any wonder workers who have visited
Waterbury in the past is only the truth.
They allow a committee to be selected
by the audience to remain upon the
stage during their entire performance
and try every way in their power to dis
cover the cause of the doings, but the
committee are as nonplussed as the au-
dience.
The slate writing, ballot reading and
clairvoyant tests were the most unac-
countable. The cabinet manifestations
we have seen before, not quite so neatly
done, perhaps, but the above three
features of the programme were as far
superior to anything of the kind ever
seen in Waterbury, as sunlight is SUI
perior to moonlight.
Mrs Starr is over crowded with callers
for private sittings, although her price
is five dollars a chair for a full private
sitting, so eager are those who see her
in public to have private interviews
with her that they are willing to pay
any price. Some of our wealthy ladies
are even going to New Britain next
week, for the purpose of having private
sittings and have already engaged their
hours. The STAIRS will be at the City
hall again tonight and 80 will those Of
their audience who were there last
night.
The seats are not numbered and those
who come early get the best seats.

breath of the meadows, to clasp the

New England home life and its sur

POLICY wRITERs BAcoEp.

Detective Egan and Omcer nIcAuIIfre
Raid the Brook Street Joint.
Shortly after 10 o'clock to-day De-
tective Egan and Officer McAuliffe
swooped down on the policy shop in the
rear of Frank Richetti's saloon on Brook
street and arrested Clifford NJ. Coles, the
policy writer and manager, and Will
said his home was in Hartford and that
he was 90 years old. Holdridge said his
age was 25 and that his home was in
Bristol.
1t has been known for some time
among those interested in the game
that the police were watching the place.
Detective Egan worked up the case and
found that both the prisoners were
doing considerable business. He placed
the evidence in Prosecuting Attorney
Kellogg's possession and warrants were
made out for both Coles and Holdridge,
charging them with writing policy and
acting as agents for such.
1t is the rule among the writer's and
the players that the books close
promptly at 1890 daily, and from noon
until that hour the writers are busy
| finishing up business for players who
wait until that time. Detective Egan
knew this and accordingly it was
arranged not to make the arrests until
after twelve o'clock. The two officers
walked down Spring street, entered the
side door and before the occupants
could stop their work, had secured
much desired and very interesting
evidence. They found Coles and
his assistant hard at work slip writing,
and nearly dozen persons waiting to
place their coins in the gambling slot.
The two men were bagged.
At the police station the customary
search of prisoners was made. In Coles
pockets were found slips, carbon paper
and other evidence of a convicting ma
ture. Holdridgs, too, had many writ
ten slips, but not as many as his ''boss. 81
The slips were dated Waterbury
March 80, am" and were filled up with
many combinations of numbers. The
lowest play was one cent and the highest
81. Chief Egan counted the total
amount and found that $64.51 had been
taken in this morning. The men were
much surprised at the cleverness of the
capture. Coles has been arrested before
for similar offense committed here.
The prisoners were released this after
noon under bonds of $500 each.

RAILROAD MATTERS.
What General Manager futile SD
the New England.

"h@C General manager futile Says OF
the New England.
The lease of the New York, Provi.
dence & Boston railroad by the New
York, New Haven & Hartford railroad
company has more significance than
appears upon the surface The New
York, New Haven & Hartford is pre-
pairing itself against encroachment upon
the part of the New York & New Eng
land railroad, and the move is directed
more especially against this line. Gen
eral Manager Tuttle said yesterday:
"The New York & New England
road has been endeavoring to secure
entrance into New York, with a view
of diverting traffic from our road. It is
but natural, therefore, that the New
York, New England & Hartford road
should make arrangements to be inde-
pendent of the New England, and with
the arrangement already made we
are able to reach within thirty-three
miles of Boston. By the way of Spring
field we are ninety-eight miles from
Boston, and by the Air Line route, by
the way of Willimantic, we are COM
PEELED to traverse eighty-six miles over
the New England. Now, if the occa-
sion requires, you see, we shall be able
our own lines without resorting to the
New England, and at the same time
help to pay dividends on our own stock.
1t is scarcely expected that our road
would throw traffic in the way of a
rival corporation, and therefore you can
draw your own differences whether or
not the arrangement with the New
England will be continued"

Town Clerk Madden's Funny Experience
With q Tramp.
A small, shabbily dressed young man
called at the town clerks office last
evening and asked Town Clerk Madden
for license. Mr. Madden took down
from dusty shelf his book of marriage
license blanks and proceeded to ask the
young man all about his history. The
man answered the questions and after
the usual oath had been administered
the clerk handed out the license, ex-
pecting in return that he would be
offered the customary fee of fifty cents,
but it was not forthcoming. After a
pause of many minutes Mr. Madden in
formed the would-be-benedict that the
license would cost him fifty cents. 1t
was then that the visitor discovered a
mistake and gently informed the town
clerk that he wanted a license for a
nights lodging. He already had wife
in New York. Clerk Madden, mad
enough to chew a brick, directed the
fellow to the police station. His name
was John Mccarthy. He said he asked
a man how to get nights lodging at
