A lady who had been taken i'll at her

A Woman Who Holds tho Peace of Eu-
-. 49,. rope In Her Hands.
It is the popular idea that in the
hands of the car of Russia lies the
fate of Europe. The situation is some
thing like this: One the one hand is
the triple alliance-Gcrmany, Austria,
Italy. On the other hand is unrestful
France, and, through its natural cnmity
to Germany, Russia for an invinciblc
ally. Russia, with its legions of mon,
machines, its cannon, its war ships, its
gold ready to be thrown against the
peace of Europe, is at the command
of one mind, one will-that of the car.
No other such potentate exists on
earth. Yet the popular idea, it seems,
is wrong. Not in the hands and Mt the
will of this powerful monarch lies the
peace of Europe. 1t rests between the
gentle, frail palms of n woman, the
cars mother-in-law. According to NJ.
dc Dlowitz, in IN article on the situa-
ton in Europe in McClure's Magazine,
but for the queen of Denmark Europe
would be battle-ground. and the civil
lied world would resound with the
groans of the wounded and the cries of
the women and children who are be-
reft. The queen Of Denmark loves the
young Emperor William, whom she at
fectionately calls my angel" The
car loves the mother of his wife. It
is her gentle diplomacy that brought
about tho meeting of reconciliation be.

to grievc the nffcctionatc heart of a
woman in her declining years that
the two proud young turlicy-coc,ls of
emperors are forbearing to Stay one
nnother's subjects and drench Europe
in blood. Surely the power of affec-
ton and tho influence of woman was
never shown in n more interesting
manner. But what is best worth re-
marking is that tho destiny of Europe
is in the keeping of mothcr-in-law.

a Discharged Prisoner Charges the
Deputy With Cruelty.
Walter II. Douglass, Just released
from the Wethersfield state prison,
where he was committed in September,
1892, is in Norwich in the last stages of
consumption. He was robust and
weighed 200 pounds when committed.
He alleges his condition is due to abuse
of him by Deputy Warden Baisden. He
tells a pitiable story. He shows scars
upon his body, claimed to have been
made by loaded cane Baisden always
carried.
Following is one of the incidents he
reports: soon after Warden Chamber
lain was suspended and while Baisden
was in practical control, while was at
work, a three-quarter inch wire brad
was jammed into the palm Of my hand
by the machine l was at work on. The
pain was so intense l could not endure
working, and l asked the deputy if
could cease for that day. Step out
here into the hail. he responded. AS l
reached the door I turned to show him
the wound. Step along there he
shouted, and down came his cane on
my head and shoulders. Knocked
almost senseless by the blow, fell pros
trate to the floor and was dragged to a
dungeon. l spent over three days in
the reeking damp hole, and then my
hand had swelled to such proportions
that the physician ordered me to the
hospital. Steward Wesley Bishop cut
the brad out of my hand and said he in
tended to preserve it."

DISCUSSION OF FINANCES.
Resolutions Passed BY the Central Labo
Union,

Resolutions Passed BY the Central Labor
Union.
The financial situation was discussed
at the meeting of Central Labor union
last night and long preamble with the
following resolution was adopted:
Resolved, that we, the delegates of
the several labor unions of Waterbury
and vicinity, believe that the establish
ment of national monetary system in
which a circulating medium equal, at
least. per capita to that of France, shall
be issued direct to the people without
the intervention of banks and in which
all money so issued and of whatever
material shall be full legal tender for all
debts. public and private, would make q
financial panic impossible.
Resolved, that the right to issue
money is a sovereign right to be exer-
cised solely for the common good and
should not be delegated to, nor exer-
cIsed by, banking corporations.
Resolved, that copy of these reso-
lutIons and preamble be sent to our
member CT congress from this district"
The union also passed vote earnestly
requesting the American people to pom
der the preamble and resolutions.
Votes were passed endorsing the action
of Messrs Bouffard and Grelle in placing
their bake shops under union rule and
thanking the Foresters for patronizing
union shops in purchasing articles for
their picnic to-day. The Central union
will attend the picnic.

PAYING BY CHECKS.
The Plan Adopted by Several Contractors
To-Day.

To-Day
A number of manufacturers and con-
tractors held a consultation yesterday
and as a result the latter decided to
adopt the SYST m of paving their help
by checks until the local banks can sup
ply the demand for small bills and cur
rency. The manufacturers may be
obliged to adopt this system later. In
the pay envelopes of many employed in
the building trades tonight will be
found circulars reading as follows
Owing to the difficulty in obtaining
currency, we are obliged to give you
check this week which you can I'M
doubtedly use In payment Of your obli-
cations. 1t will be cashed at the banks
as soon as theyget currency in to use for
the purpose.
The contractors take this means of
paying their help rather than lay them
off as it would be necessary to do if they
demanded cash in hand for their servi-
ces. If people who have money would
only put it in circulation through the
channel offered by the banks, and not
store it up in their stockings, it would
not take long to break the corner in the
money market.
4 representative of the DEMOCRAT
paid a visit to several of the stores to-
day and elected various opinions. The
first merchant approached said payment
by check would not effect his business
much. OF course it would inconvenience
him to some extent, but he would accept
the check of a good responsible oon-
| tractor, but if a manufacturing concern
he would prefer the firms signature.
| Should there be a balance after pur-
| chase he would prefer to pay by chez
rather than currency.
| Another said he would not pay in cur
rency, but wonld pay change by check,
providing he could deposit checks so re-
| ceived and transact his business by pay
ing his bills by drawing on the bank
when deposit is made.
Still another would not honor any OF
the checks and his reasons are these
He has been doing business for twenty
years with firm and received word to.
day to send in future payments by cur
rency, shipping the same by express al

| Another said he would pay in cur
