The Second Athletic Entertainmen
 at This Club Last Evening.

The Second Athletic Entertainmen nl
 at This Club Last Evening.
 The second athletic exhibition under the auspices of the New Haven Athletic club was held in their gymnasium in the Ex- change building last evening. The first event was to be three-round bout be- tween Fred Branch and Gallagher, two featherweights of this city. Branch was the heavier, and being in better condition he easily outclassed his opponent. Galla- gher was full of sand, though, and even if he was outfought he took his medicine like a veteran. They spared one round and about third of the second, and Referee Dunn then gave the decision to Branch. The boys shook hands at the close and both were loudly cheered.
 round go for points between Telfair and Pierson, two 160-pound men of this city. and Telfair proved altogether too strong for his opponent and won the match easilv in the first round. The next feature was an exhibition of weight lifting by Charles Jefferson, champion of the world. He gave an excellent exhibition, showing great strength of grip. Christie won the high kicking contest for the championship of the state over Stevens, kicking it. i in. The last match was between two light weights, Tom Brown of Hartford and Billy Russell of New York, and was won by Russell by foul in the first round. The club will give another entertainment March 23, at which they promise @ pro- gram of more evenly matched men.

 Business of Unusual Importanc, Transacted by the Town's Repre. sentatives Last Evening. The session of the board of selectmer last evening was unusually lengthy, an6 business of mors than usual importance was transacted. Among these was the adoption of 8 vote by the board, instruct ing the committee on railroads and bridges of the board to go to Hartford to- day and appear before the committee on cities and boroughs and oppose the granting of permission to the Morris Cove road to lay their tracks on any street except Hughes street. This vote was taken because ii was stated by Selectmen Beeoher that that road intended to run its road through Meadow street, 8 small thoroughfare run ming from the Quinnipiao bridge to South Ferry street. They would probably at tempt, he said, to run their tracks through Ferry street, and this the board was op- posed to.
 A communication from the park com mission in reference to the appropriation of $10,0 made at the town meeting for the improvement of parks was read and referred to the town agent to confer with the town counsel and report to the next meeting of the board. The park commis. sion claims that it is not obliged to use the money as directed by the town, but is on the contrary authorized by the legislature to use the appropriation as they may deem best.
 A petition signed by 8 number of prom inent citizens asking the selectmen to con- slider the advissbility of calling a town meeting for the purpose of making an ap- propriation of SIG, ,O00 for an elevator on East Rock was laid on the table.
 Mayor Sargent also sent a communica- ton to the board in reference to the pro- posed bill providing for the appropriation of all drawbridges by the state. the state agreeing to be responsible for their main tenance. The communication was, how ever, tabled for future action.
 Arthur Howard was granted permission to erect bomb proof magazine on lot within the town limits, belonging to the estate of the late E. Higgings Bishop.
 It was voted to hold a special meeting of the board this evening when the subject of general railroad legislation will be thor oughly discussed, with 8 view to deter mining what action the town will take when the matter comes up before the com mittee on cities and boroughs in Hartford the latter part of the week.

 ATTORNEY CLEAvELAND's REMARKS. Attorney L. W. Clesveland of New Ha- ven introduced new bill which in effect would not interfere with legitimate race tracks and urged that the pool rooms should go.
 Sections and are as follows: Sec. 9. Every person who shall either directly or indirectly as principal, agent or servant, re- any pools, money, property, or thing of value, bet or placed, transmitted or to be transmitted for the purpose of being bet or placed upon any appointment, or election, whether within or with out this state, or of any apparatus of any kind 1 useG Tor & the purpose of assisting in buying or fined not more than 5 1000 or imprisoned in the stste's prison not more than two years. or both
 Section 8. Nothing hereinbefore contained shall affect anything done at the actual time and place of a horse race but this section shall not impair the effect Of present statutes in so far as they may apply to betting or gaming at any time or place."
 This substitute had been drafted by At torney Henry C.. Newton of this city, formerly house chairman of the judiciary bill is substantially the Wood bill" im- proved, incorporating in it the best feat ures of all the bills which have this year been submitted to the legislature, with the addition of the third section, which MT. Newton had drafted by request, and which is in line with Dr. Smyth's suggestion to concentrate the bill against the pool room, leaving the matter of betting at the race tracks to the present statutory provisions, which are more adequate as against betting at the track than they are as against the pool rooms. ex-Governor Bulkeley, upon hearing this third section read, waived his
 1-Lk 4 IL race tracks iegalizsd, and expressed his en- tire satisfaction with this provision, which leaves betting at the race tracks out of the anti-pool room bill and subject merely to present statute law.

Railroad Wrecks.

homes 10 vlsitthe great and truly wonder
fol Worlds Fair, at Chicago. This IS
snsh an unusual thing for the bustiIng'
hu1rying American people to do tha'
there must be a cause for it just as IN
usual, and no one need 60 far to hnd IT,
When we realize that no less than seven
passenger trains have been wrecked WIN
q loss OF seventy.two precious lives anu
the voundIng of about one hundred and
twenty others, some of whom have since
died after terrible suffering, all OF rail-
roads running to Chicago, and in less
space of time than oDe month, ID 1t
strange that even the proverbially care
less American people are beginning to
hesitate before taking their lives in. their
hands and startisg eff for a pleasure trip
that has ended so disastrOusly for many
Othersf
Al six of these accidents were collisions
they were preyentable, and therefore
some one is to blame. Two trains can
hardly be run together without some
body bsiDg at fault. 1t is true that SO
lsng "a the safety Of railroad travel must
be left in the hands Of fallible human
agency mistakes, blunders and occasion
ally criminal negligence will occur with
their sad and lamentable effects. But
after all are not the management or the
policy Of the roads often to blame Inc
opinion 10 widely prevalent among the
people that in the great rush OF tralns'
the extra number of them as well az OF
passengers consequent upon the great
Fair, the railroad hands are over worked,
that in their stnpid condition from ex-
baustion and loss of sleep they were not
ft for their responsible duties, and these
dsplsrable accidents were the results.
II such is the case it surely is the most
thoroughly mistaken policy Of economy
that the roads can possibly adopt. The
savings in the wages of few extra hands
Is but a trife in comparison with the ire
msndous losses that such accidents must
entail upon the companies, to say nothing
Of the heavy losses that must occur
through the deterrent effects they must
have upon travel.
The pay of the additional hands requlr-
ed to relieve the over worked employees
is nothing in comparison with the vast
sums that would be saved to railroads not
TO speak of the many lives that are in
sxpressibly precious to relatives and
friends.
