COLONEL FELLOWS IN NAuGATUck
An Interesting Address Listened to B,
 a Large Audience.

An Interesting Address Listened to By a Large Audience. The democrats of Naugatuck opened the campaign last evening by raising a handsome banner on Maple street, and afterwards hearing the eloquent Colonel John R. Fellows of New York speak at the opera house.
 Preceded by the drum torps Colonel Fellows was escorted to the hotel and the same programme was carried out in escorting the distinguished speaker to the opera house. The pretty Gem never held larger crowd. The body of the hall was crowded and the gallery, which was reserved for ladies, did not contain vacant seat.
 After two songs by the glee club, Chairman William Kennedy arose and in few words introduced Colonel Fellows.
 The first object in laying a duty, said the speaker, was to raise revenue for the government, and that secured, to put something additional to the price m order to support or restrain somebody from competition. In the first the re, publicans and democrats are the same. but in the second they differ, and the speaker illustrated how man making silk in this country asks that the duty be raised to keep out competition. He
 
 crease the cost of his silk per yard by fifty per cent, and having no competi- tlon he can do as he pleases. Where this system may benefit 4,000 perhaps, what right has the government to say that the purchasing element of sixty five millions shall pay tribute to ,OOO favored ones? We cannot raise tea in this country. The natural place is Japan, nature has so fashioned it. They cannot raise it in California, yet the men interested there go to congress and get big duty put on it.
 It is not the tariff that regulates wages. It can not be told of a place where wages were raised in comparison with the protection of the industry. The tariff effects all the United States, yet in Kansas, Nebraska, Washington and all the west they pay more than they do here to the wage earner. It is not pro- lection that has kept up wages. Wages have been kept up largely by organiza- tion of labor who refused to allow the wages to be reduced. What protective to regulate wages. He can raise or cut as he pleases.
 Speaking of the exclusion of the Chinaman, Colonel Fellows said: "What of the Hungarians, Italians, Russians, who are below us in the scale of de- velopment, deep in crime and poverty, the lowest types of humanity, who are knocking at our doors? They are doing so under the operations of a protective tariff law and are swarming to take the place of American labor. What lit up the fires of war on the banks of the Monongahela? Was it not the fruits of this protection that the men of wealth might fly to Scottish heaths and high lands and live with their millions of money?"
 Colonel Fellows concluded by show ing up the despotism of the republican party with its proposed force bill, and spoke word of advice to the young men, urging them to continue the battle that they may be freed from this slavery, which the republican party would cast around them.

THE NEW POSTAL SCHEME.
House Door Boxes For the ColIe ctiC
 and Delivery of Mail

House Door Boxes For the Cole ction
 and Delivery of Mail.
 Postmaster General Wanamaker has issued an order deputizing the post masters of free delivery cities to put up boxes, on the request of citizens, for the collections and delivery of mail at house doors, subject to the following rules:
 First-The householder must, for his own convenience and advantage and at his own expense, supply suitable box (according to one of two patented plans.)
 Second-The system of house collec- tion can only be introduced in cities when the postmaster is notified that two-thirds of the residents of any one route desire and agree to erect boxes.
 Practical tests, it is said, have deter mined that the adoption of this plan has resulted in a saving rather than a loss of time to carriers, and it has been a great convenience to householders.

 NAUGATUCK, Sept l13.-The banner put up last evening by the democrats is not only very fine one but well put up in one of the most conspicuous places in the town. On the arrival of the even- ing train Col Fellows was met by chair man Kennedy, Hial Stevens and Dr Futile, who after a short conversation with Carlos French, who was obliged to return at once, took carriage and were escorted by drum corps to the hotel for supper. By 7:30 the streets were lined with men, women and children waiting to see the banner drawn out, which was done on the return of the committee and speaker, amid the glare of red fire and roman candles and hearty cheer. Then the rush was made for the opera house. The gallery was already filled with ladies and the | auditorium was soon filled to over- flowing, while MT Kennedy waited upon those it was desired to act as assistants by the stage entrance. The glee club rendered two selections very acceptably before the introduction of the speaker, who delivered two hours address, the main points of which will be found in another column. Hial Stevens went to Hartford to-day as alternate for s. M. Andrew, who is sick.
 The Rev MT Tree is preparing a series of three discourses on three celebrated paintings, viz: ''Christ Before Pilate, 9 Calvary" and ''The Wise and Foolish Virgins" The first will be given on September 26. Next Sunday evening Presiding Elder Beach will preach to the quarterly conference in the M. E. church.
 The republican town committee met last night and discussed campaign affairs.
 A loose character from Waterbury. who gave the name of Ida Linn, went to jail yesterday for the want of S. % and costs to pay her fine for disorderly conduct. It was Constable Gallagher who kicked the lock off the gate door to the basement of town hall, the lock not working good.
 The water company will place a hy- drant on May street near Phoenix ave- nue by order of the fire commissioners.
 J. Wales Lines of Meriden was in the place yesterday.
 Quite a number of the members of the Christian Endesvor will attend the quarterly meeting at Waterbury this evening.
 The want of lookup at Union City is becoming. more apparent every day. Some suggest the idea of erecting a building so that portion of the same could be used for fire apparatus, with a cage in the rear. The upper room could be fitted up for court or meeting room and should it ever become necessary take it for the fire company.

INTERESTING TO WATERBURY.

Significant Move Against Pollution ot
 Streams.
 The supreme court of errors has sus- tained the decision of the superior court, by which Henry l.. Kellogg was given $1 ,OOO and costs in his suit against the city's sewage, discharged into Piper's brook, which runs through his land. It is thought that other suits, now pending, may be pushed against the city. Heman A. Whittlesey of Newington wants $5,0OO, and Levi s. Welles and Lester A. Vibberts of New Britain want $5,O00 and $1O,OOO re- spectively. Piper's brook is the upper end of the Park river, and a very significant move seems to have been made against the pollution of streams. Waterbury has special interest in this decision as suit of somewhat similar nature is pending against the city.

An idaho Nomination Confirmed Dcspite
tho Protests of Senators.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-The confirmation
by tho senate to-day, of the nomination of
james II. Beattio to be district Judge of
Idaho, marks the termination in favor of
the administration. of struggle lasting
nearly year with the Idaho senators. Mr.
Beattie was nominated Feb. 10 Of last year
in spite of the protests of Senators Shoup
and Mcconnell. who sought to convince the
president that tho nomination would not
be acceptable to the people of Idaho. The
opposition was able to prevent action upon
the nomination during the few weeks that
remained OF the last session of the Fifty
first congress. Three days after tho ad-
iournment of congress, however. the presi-
dent appointed Beattie to the judgeshipand
his nomination was one of tho first to be-
sent to the scnnte at the beginning of the
present congress.
Again the Idaho senators resumed their
opposition to the nomination, and for
nearly II year Judge Beattie has been dis
charging the functions of his Office III Idaho
aud California. His decision has been sus-
tanned whenever al appeal has been taken
to the superior tribunal. and it was not
possible to pick any flaws iii his judicial
career This facts naturally had the effect
of n favorable determination and the set;,-

colleagues. who had been in sympathy with

row in a short address on the Worlds fair
said: Chicago has done more for this ex-
hibiticn than was ever done by
any city for any international ex-
position heretofore held, and should the
economic feelings of non progressive
government fail of its bounden share in
this great work, the people who sought this
honor. the city which receives this honor,
will prove more than equal to the additional
burden which may be placed upon it,
Mr.. Bouiele proposed three cheers for
Capt. Schley, which We're given with will.
Capt. Schley made graceful response, and
as he sat down three cheers were given for

Penalty Decreed by Judge Foster for Those
Who Assaulted American Sailors.
VALPARA1so. Feb. 4.-Judge Of Crimes
Foster to-day passed sentence in the Balti
moro assault case. His sentence is subject
to review by the court of appeals. The
document. covers $50 pages and goes
all over the evidence against the
accused, and compares it closely
with the evidence presented by
the prisoners. The finding of the court is
that Carlos Arena, alias Gomez, be SEN
fenced to $40 days imprisonment for
wounding TnrnbuIl. 300 days for public
disorder, sixty days for carrying knife
and twenty days for giving an assumed
name. This makes total of $50 days.
Jose Ahumada is sentenced to 800 days. i'm
prisonment for injuring Turnbull.
Frederick Rodriguez is sentence to lao
days imprisonment for wounding KieRin
for public disorder, and for carrying
knife. 1t is held by Judge Foster that the
evidence does not show that Rodriguez
killed Riggin. On the contrary, it is
claimed that Higgins death was caused by
Il shot fired by an unknown person. Gomez
and Rodriguez, under the Chilian renal
code, must pay the families of Turnbull
and Kiggin damages. These damages are
recoverable by civil suit.

The Former Advocated by Interested
Gentlemen, Who Denounce
the Latter.
Thoy Ask for Something Better
Before tho Present System
Is Destroyed.
Claimed: Futures Are Le9itimat Deals,
While Opssons Are Mere Wagers--
Futures Keep Up Prices.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.--The opponents Of
the anti-option bill had the floor to-day in
the hearing before the house com mmittee on
agriculture. Representatives from st.
Paul and Minneapolis told why the bill
would not benefit the farmers, and would
hurt the men engaged in the business of
supplying the demand for grain. Aldrich,
of the Chicago board of trade. said the
board was heartily in favor OF the bill 80
far as it related to options, a. designated in
the first section Of the measure, relating to
fictitious sales, as that kind of trading had
always been illegal and never recognized.
The board spent great, deal of monev
trying to procure the enforcement of tho
law prohibiting gambling contracts.
The system in operation is the result Of q
great many years experience. 1t was not
something devised especially to give an
opportunity for dealing in futures. Boards
OF trade. like bank clearing houses, were
commercial conzeniencos for the exchanges.
The declines which came as rule were
legitimate and due to supply exceeding
the demand for the crop at times; when the
prices were temporarily advanced by specu-
lation, buying and selling in short fuctua-
tions greater on that side than on the other.
Continuing, Aldrich said that if the bill
under consideration passed it would be the
most disastrous thing for the farmers that
could happen and would deprive them of
their system of exchange. Aldrich said it
would not be al over-estimate to say that
over ST. 600 were up in Chicago in mar
gins at one time.
Aldrich said if the committee would re-
port the bill doing away with fictitious sales,
he thought there was no doubt it would
meet with the appreciation of the members
of the Chicago board of trade. A. J. Saw
yer, one of the largest elevator mon in
Minneapolis, said he would make no attack
on the bill, but before the present method
of handling grain was destroyed, he would
ask the committee to devise some substi-
tute BY which it could be better handled.
Sawyer appealed to the committee not to
knock away the underpinning by which
wheat merchants, like himself, protected
themselves from losses without giving
them in it's place something equally as
good.
The committee to-day received protest
against the pAGsage OF the Washburn bill
relating to that subject. from the New
Orleans cotton exchange. The document
makes q distinction between futures, .
which it defends ns legitimate contracts,
and Options" commonly known rs ''puts
and calls" which are characterized as
nothing more or less than wage:s. 1t in
further asserted that futures serve as a
restraint to serious declines in time of
depression.

Marching Into Africa.

PARIS Feb A dispatch has been re-
ceived here from Major de Brusses, the
we'll known Fronch explorer, who ia in
command of the Chari and lake Tchad
expedition. He says lie finds it a wiser
plan not to carry out his intention of pun.

Fourneau's expedition, which set out last
year to explore tho valley Of tho SRnghn-
bayen, Central Soulan and tho French
Congo. but to con6ne himself to establish
ing friendly relations with the hospitablo
chiefs. with the Wow Of forming chain or
military posts from the coast to Lake
Tchad. Such course, he adds. would be a
great aid in the extension Of French inllu-
ence in that, part Of Africa. Fourneau's
expedition, above mentioned, was attacked
by natives in August last, sixteen OF it's
members killed and thirty wounded. All
their merchandise and many rifles were
captured by tho natives and the expedition
was compelled to retreat, being followed
for n fong distance and constantly harassed
by the enemy.
