Business Prosperity.


That the enactmg II of the Mckinley
tariff law has been followed by almost
unexampled business prosperity, in
stead of dire disa " as the Democ-
racy prophesied IN 1890, is shown by
the New York Sun in it's issue of Oct.
4. 1t says editorialiy:
"The accepted barometer of mer-
camille business in the United States is
the record of failures compiled and
verified by the established commercial
agencies. 1t is therefore extremely
gratifying to observe that the general
prosperity, of which there are accumu-
lating evidences on every side, is re-
Elected in the agency reports of the
nine months of 1892, ending on Satur-
day last, Oct. 1. These are the figures
for nine months of each of the years
following:
YEAR. FAILURES. LIABILITIES.
1890. ............S 9241, 900
1891 SO6 ........... 13S,S71, 600
1892. ....:.... 76,971,0O0
"The volume of business is constantly
increasing in the United States New
fields for the development of indus
trial activity are being opened; corpo-
rations are multiplying; capital, greater
in amount than at any previous time
VI IL ohy SouhCIy, oeSho Piohedpic III
vestment, and the newer motors and
agencies, electricity and natural gas,
furnish entirely new fields for enter
prise. The population of the country
is increasing. The profits and the saw
ings of the people find, almost exclus-
lively, employment here, while steady
current of foreign capital comes to
American industrial stock companies,
breweries, mines, ranches, and mer-
camille establishments. Under these
circumstances, the increase of failures
and of liabilities resulting therefrom
should naturally keep pace with the
growth of population, business and ma
terlal wealth. Such does not appear
to be the case at present, as these figures
show, estimating the remaining three
months of 1892 on the basis of the nine
months for which figures are at hand.

MURDER IN CAMBRIDGRpORT.

 BOSTON, April 25.-In Cambridgeport
 this noon William E. Cunningham, har-
 ness maker, thirty years old, shot and
 fatally wounded Maggie Williams, a domes-
 tic, twenty years of age, then shot himself
 in the forehead and left side. The woman
 died while being removed to the
 hospital. Cunningham is reported
 as alive this evening, but
 is very low. The two had been keeping
 company for some time, and Cunningham
 had borrowed money and jewelry from the
 girl, which he disposed of. He had sev- eral times promised to marry her, but each time refused to keep his
 word, until finally the girl refused to have anything more to do with him. This morning the girl went to Bos- ton to inform the police of her trouble with Cunningham. with the hopes of re- Cunningham called at Mrs. Solo mans, a friend of Miss Williams, hoping that he might meet the girl and have talk with her. When Miss Williams returned she found her former lover wait ing for her at Mrs. Soloman's. Catching sight of him she ran out, but Cunningham ran after her and entreated her to go into the house with him. This she did and then he begged to be forgiven for his past conduct, but it was of no avail and becoming exssperated the man pulled the revolver from his pocket and shot the girl in the left breast. She sank to the floor and immediately Cunningham fired @ shot into his own forehead and also shot himself just over the heart. The neighborhood was thrown into great excitement, and the police being quickly at hand both were taken to the Massachusetts General hospi- tai, the woman dying on the way.

MOREIMPORTANT

TTNO the world than the best and most reliable
 ! Steam Boiler, with the greatest economy of any kind of fuel. The Bridgeport Boiler W orks, Bridgeport. Conn, have lately received an order for one of their one hundred horse power Lowe Boilers with all Improvements from large concern who had put in one of these boilers of seventy five horse power. and employed one or the best experts to test it against the records of its several public and other expert tests, and also 10 ascertain the facts in regard to any derogatory statements against it before adopting it exclusively, and found their test, and boiler, exceeded the previous records, and the best results ever ob- tained and the oerogatory statements false. Therefore they adopted the Lowe Boiler with all Improvements and replaced their two kinds of leading Water Tube Boilers with two seventy two inch Lowe Boilers and now order the fourth boiler above, after several years' experience with the first. The first Lowe Boiler made has done over twenty-four years work without any cost for repairs, and is still in under the pres sure it started with. and carresas good an inspec- tors certificate. Hundreds of Lowe boilers have ss good pro rata record. The users have from one to thirty of these boilers, and from one to twenty-fou years experience, with fewer cases of unsatisfactory results from causes over which we had no control than any otder boiler.

What Attorney Daley Really Meant.
 Attorney Daley says that his remarks concerning "the better element" have been greatly misinterpreted. He did not char acterize them ass breeders of illegitimate children. He was speaking concerning those "who go to London for season and come home with their hair parted in the
 middle who play tennis and attend o'clock teas," etc., etc. He then appealed
 to Americans to remember the laws as
 they found them and as their fathers and grandfathers found them before them,
 both state and municipal, and continuing, said: We are not 8 people who recognize class, you know. We do not recognize a man for the reputation his father or grand father made before him. In this country we recognize no class as better than an other. Every man stands equal, and his duty as an American citizen is to remem-
 Der the laws of his country, and not let
 any political illegitimacy obtain here.
 'The word had reference purely and solely to the introduction of this question polit- ically, and not socially or individually. No fair-minded man who heard my argu- ment can say it had any reference to any individual or any class of men or any ref erence to any of the gentlemen assistin 6 the plaintiffs"

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

| Names Of the Twenty.One Delegates
 Elected to the Coming State Con. vention of the Party-Mr. Buchan. ans Resolution Tabled. The democratic town convention for the election of delegates to the psrty's state convention was held at the Knights of Columbus hall last evening. Twenty-ons delegates were chosen, in accordance with the party rule regarding increased repre- sentation. Isaac Wolfe was elected chair man of the meeting and Daniel M. Shee- han secretary.
 At the opening of the meeting James J. Buchanan of the Second ward offered a resolution which was in effect: That one delegate to the state convention be chosen from each ward in which over $50 votes were cast for Luzon B. Morris at the last gubernatorial election; and, furthermore, that the delegate or delegates from each ward be chosen by the person represent ing that ward. The resolution was ta- bled.
 The following committee was then sp- pointed to bring in 6 list of names for delegates. The committee consisted of J. P. Carney, J. E. McGann, James Kelle- her, J. Mcclure, D. T. McNsmars, J. J. McCrann, J. c. Gallagher, F. G. Beach, S. J. Veil.
 James Landers objected to the commit tee and cited one of the rules of the dem ocratic party, which said:
 All nominations of candidates and all elections Of delegates in conventions shall be made by . viva yoce vote, the secretary calling the roll and each delegate naming his choice. A majority vote of any convention shal be sufficient to nom mate or elect as the case may be.
 The chairman then said that the mem bers could act on the report of the com mittee by @ viva voce vote and this would not interfere with the rule, for they would then be voting for the delegates by viva voce vote.
 THE LIST OF DELEGATES.
 The committee reported the following list of delegates: E. G. Stoddard, Max Ad Ter, E. E. Bradley, Philip Hugo, James Reynolds, William s. Psrdee, F. w. Foley, David Callahan. John P. Carney. Francis G. Beach, Patrick Moran, John Ahearn, Isaac Wolfe, Daniel M. Sheehan, Robert A. Hollinger, Thomas A. Fitzpatrick, John B. Donnelly, Walter Leigh, Joseph B. Gun ningham, Michael Haesche and James E. McGann.
 There were only three objectors to the names as reported. They were James J. Buchanan, James Landers and w. H. Me Donald.
 The election of the delegates was then made unanimous.
 It was voted that each delegate have power to appoint his alternate in case he is unable to attend the convention.
