 Again.

""est Haven BushWhack1ngss
 Again.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 The newspaper raids which have been made on the citizens of West Haven, and our officers in particular for daring to as- sert their rights to walk on our sidewalks in peace and safety, and especially that disreputable article in this morning's JOURNAL entitled "West Haven Bush whacking," demands m ore than passing notice. The borough treasury is not emp, ty; to fill it is not the object of the raid on the ''guileless cyclists" every one of whom knows about this law.
 We have law which forbids the "cy- clists" riding on the sidewalks. That same Jaw is in force in other places, nota- bly, in New Haven. This law was a neces- sity to protect "life and limb' of pe6es- trians. Before this was enforced people were ordered off the sidewalks constantly by ''rowdies," and many persons were knocked down and injured, one child in particular two years ago and who has never recovered. Within two months different parties have been ordered off the sidewalks, one perty on Savin avenue in the very place where most of the arrests have been made and which bicycists please to call ''no sidewalk" A few days ago pedestrians were ordered off the sidewalk in the center of the place by three riders. One man had to jump the fance to escape being knocked down. Newspaper raids will make no diff ference in regard to the enforcement of this law, and if the officers neglect their duty in any respect it will be the worse for them, and furthermore the citizens intend to aid them in every way possible, because we mean business in regard to this matter. Before the law was enacted bicycles on the sidewalk were the most 1ntolerable nui- sance that long suffering community ever put up with. would say to ssP. j keep what little money you have to pay your fines, 30 you won't have to put up your machine as security.

THE TROJANs, DOWNFALL.

A Veritable SIugginG Match Which
 the Local Team wins Hands
 Down-Several Brilliant Features-
 Cross, Unequaled Work at Short.
 The game at the Howard avenue grounds yesterday between the New Haven and Troy teams was a veritable slugging match, home runs, triples, doubles and singles following each other in quick suo- cession until finally the players became exhausted from chasing the leather and voted to cease hostilities and confne themseves in the future to only making 8 few scattered singles. Freeman, he who pitched the fifteen inning 3 to Rochester Troy game and won it, was in the box for the visitors and proved an easy mark for the home batters, all of whom seemed to have their batting eyes with them and lined the ball out to the queens taste all through the game. Gruber pitched for the local men and put up 8 good game, notwithstanding the fact that he, too, was hit hard. The game abounded both in brilliant plays and equally brilliant errors, in the latter of which the Troy team excelled. The features of the game were the batting of Flana- gan, Donnelly, Gruber and Johnson and the fielding of Phillips, Clarke and Cross, the latter accepting sixteen chances, many of which were difficult, and making no errors. Cahill also made one of the most brilliant catches ever seen on 8 ball l field, jumping about four feet into the air | and catching in one hand g hard hit ball from Beecher's bat, which looked good for home run. Manager Shannon retired l from the game in the last half of the fifth l inning, having received telegram from
 his home announcing the serious illness of
 his mother and requesting his immediate presence. Cassian was in consequence
 sent to center field, "Sandy" Griffin coming | in to second base.
 The same teams will play again thii
 afternoon, when Fournier and Wells will
 be in the points for the home team an6
 Clarkson and McCaffrey for the visitors.

The Late David w. Thomson.

ANo AasO '" nO1nSOHs
 The funeral of the late David W. Thom- son, who was for so long a time the we'll known dealer in safes in this city will take plnce to- morrow afternoon at 2:3O from his late residence, No. 54 Olive street. MT. Thomson's sudden death brings sorrow to many friends. It was caused by rheuma- tism of the heart. He had slight attack of the same last Sunday, but quickly inn proved and was expecting to return to business the day he died. On Tuesday af- ternoon Mrs. Thomson was called out for few minutes, and during her absence
 MT. Thomson fell, having been seized with rheumatism of the heart. Mrs. Thomson
 was quickly notified, as was the family
 physician, but the latter upon arriving
 was unable to do anything for the patient,
 who died within few minutes. About a month ago MT. Thomson had fall at his home which was undoubtedly the effect of 8 slight shock. At that time he bled free ly at the nose, which undoubtedly saved his life.
 The deceased was nearly sixty two years of age and was native of New Haven, and had lived here nearly all his life. In early life he was for number uf years the treasurer of the Valentine & Butler company of New York, where he learned the safe business. Later he returned to New Haven, and for years conducted a safe and lock business in Chapel Street, near Union, which business was removed twelve years ago to State street: corner of Wooster. He leaves 8 widow and daugh- ter, Miss Ruby Thomson. Three brothers
 survive, Henry Thomson, the coal and | wood dealer of this city: Edward Thom- | son of Cheshire, and William Thomson of New York. Another brother, the late Giles G. Thomson of this city, died only g | few months ago.
 The family are much prostrated by the l suddenness of MT. Thomson's death. The
 business will be conducted for the presen, | by A. Ockert, who has been with MT | Thomson since 1857.

Bears Renew Their Attack Upon tho Changers, Hut Only Rock Island Yields to Any Extent-The Wander. bilts Weak-The Close Active.

NEW YORK, June 9. In the stock market to-day the bears early re- newed their attack upon the grangers, but only Rock Island yielded to any great extent. They were more successful with Louisville and Nash vile and the renewed weakness of the Wander bilts helped to get the general list off though the losses were in all cases for insignificant amounts except in Rock Island, Tennessee Coal and New York Central The market after these move ments sank gradually into extreme dulness with a firm temper in general, and the trading re- mained devoid of feature. Late in the day, how ever, there was an upward spurt in North Amer lean and Northern Pacific preferred, based on buying by insiders and a rumor that the Wander bilts had been purchasers of North American and were about concluding a trafic agreement by which much freight would be diverted from the Union Pacific to the Northern Pacific. While the rumor lacked confirmation these stocks rose per cent. each and the list followed in spite of the heavy banking failure in London. The market closed active and firm to strong, generally at slight gains for the day.
