Ex-Mayor William R. Shelton died at
his home Saturday at the advanced age of
seventy years. Mr.. Shelton suffered a
stroke of paralysis about five years ago
and had been in poor health since that
time. Of late his speech was affected By it,
and for many months past he has been an
invalid and helpless.
Mr.. Shelton was an active New Haven
business man until ill-health compelled
him to retire. He was for several years in
the wholesale grocery business near Gus
tom House square. After retiring as a
merchant, he became interested in the
American Needle and Fishhook company
at II Artisan street and afterward sue
ceeded to the presidency, which posi-
ton he retained for many years. The
company was founded by Crosby, the in
ventor, who got out the tape knitting
machine, newspaper folder
and several other devices. After
ward he invented an improved fish
hook which was the means of organization
of the Artisan street company. Mr.
Shelton had his business we'll systematized
and conducted on thorough business prin-
ciples. For number of years it was his
custom to take the employees of the factory
to Glen Island for one day in the sum mer

ness and undoubtedly his close pplica-
ton to business was the cause Of his
breaking down in health. In 1885 he
went to his farm in Huntington, remain
ing until about year ago, when he re-
turned to his home in this city.
Mr.. Shelton had quite political career
The fret Office he held of any prominence

1856. In 1857 he became police commits
sioner and remained in Office until 1872.
In 1857 he was town agent for one term.
He also served for several years as chair
man of the democratic town committee.
In 1876 Mr.: Shelton was elected mayor.
He assumed his Office January 1, 1877, and
served until January /, 1889, when he was
succeeded by the late Hobart B. Bigelow.
Mr.. Shelton had been renominated, but
there was wing of his party who did not
support him and defeat was the result.
Mr.. Shelton did not take any prominent
part in politics afterward. But the defeat
Of Mr.. Shelton made Mr.. Bigelow governor
of the state, for his success in carrying a
democratic city for the republicans made
him an available candidate for the guber-
material nomination.
The deceased owned handsome resi-
dence at the corner of Grown and High
street, where he resided for many years.
For many years he was member of the
prudential committee of the Church of the
Messiah and one of the trustees.
Mr.. Skeletons wife died several years
ago. There was one son, Charles, who
died year and a half ago. Charles mar
ried daughter of the late Charles At
water. Mrs. Shelton is still living and
during the last years of her fathsr-in-
laws life she cared for him tenderly. A
brother of the deceased was Charles Shell

made no attempt 10 do further harm
until the enginemen had reached
their homes aud the police had gone
away. Then they again assembled
and amused themselves by throwing
stones and breaking the windows OF
the engineers residences. One of the
engluenen who was attacked by the
strikers drew a revolver and fired upon
the mob. whereupou they fled. The
strikers believe that If they can force
