Arrest of Man Who Offered Situation onsin
 Florida-His Discharge.
 New York, Sept. 21.-Police Captain Delaney believes that he nipped in the bud what would have proved serious swindle if it had been allowed to ripen, when he arrested this morning at the Adams house on Eighth avenue, James G. Watson, on the charge of Joseph Conway, No. 96 Clinton Place. Watson, the captain says, had been advertising in a morning newspaper for help of va rious kinds, and telling persons who responded to apply at No. 70 Eighth avenue. At that place the applicants were informed by Watson that the po- sitions were in Florida, and could be got by going there. He told each applicant, Captain Delaney learned, that he was going to send three or four hundred persons to Florida on Saturday, and asked him if he cared to join the party, whether he could pay half the fare-s10, If so, he was to present himself to Wat son on Saturday. The appeal for money, the captain says, was put by Watson in such a way as to prevent his being kept in custody, in case of arrest, for when Captain Delaney arraigned Wat son in the Jefferson Market police court to-day Justice Hogan told him that there was nothing on which the man could be held, and he was accordingly dischargeds -.

THREE NEW RECORDS.
They Were Made by JrAn Johnson at the Wnitham Trnok.

Waltham. Mass. Sept. 2l.-Three new worlds records for John s. Johnson of | Syracuse marked the first day of the record breaking meet. which will be held on the waltham Cyle track every | pleasant day for the rest of the month. Johnson has been in training here for n week and was in the pink of condi- | ton. There was not breath Of air | stirring. the cement track had been swept clear and the weather condi. tions were perfect. Johnson came cut for the half-mile record flying start with pacemakers, made by Bliss of Chicago, on the Springfield track. Bliss time was 54 3-b seconds. John son did 1t easily in 54 seconds. In doing this an entirely new idea ir pace making. conceived by Tom Eek, was used. In previous trials the racers had been slightly delhyed by tha new racemakers being either too slow Or awkward on the change If tanhsms. To avoid this Tom Eek start ,I the TWO tande ems "ozcther ahead of Johnson.
 Mayo and Sanders Were on the fore most tandem and cut the wind for l.. A. and Charles Callahan. who followed | on the second tandem. When the first team was exhausted, the Callahans, comparatively fresh, kept right on and the delay of a change was avoided. The quarter was made in 26 4-5, slower than record time, but on the home stretch Johnson spurted ahead of his pace makers and lowered the worlds record for the half by 3-5 seconds. The Calla- han brothers were doing some record riding, too, and lowered the worlds tan dem for the half to 51 1-5.
 Johnson was sent to his training quarters and in fifteen minutes re- turned to try for the two-thirds of a mile with the same system of pace making. This record, too, was made at Springfield, September 1, by Bliss in 1:14 3-5. Johnson rode even better than in the first attempt. He reached the quarter in 26 3-6, the one-third in 35 3-5 and the half in 52 2-5, this latter being even over than the recorld he just established. but as the timers had not al caught the distanlce it will not be claimed. In the final sprint for the tape Johnson gave an exhibition of speed that never has been equalled on this or any other track He literally ran away from the speedy tandem team and cut the wire three seconds below the previous record, doing the two-thirds in Ill 4-5.
 His trainers refused to let him try for the mile to-day. but he goes againstt that record and all intermediate dis tances Saturday, and will remain on the Waltham track until every record up to the hour is his, or until he is con- vinced he cannot attaiEF them.

4 FINANCIAL FAILURE.

Yet the State Fair Is the Best Exhibition
 .--- Ever Held.
 r Meriden, Sept. N.-The fourth and last day of the state fair of 1894 was the only really good one of the exhibition.
 Four hundred boys from the reform school attended in body to-day and were treated to peanuts and candy by Superintendent Thatcher. This was the first time in three years that the truant boys were admitted to the fair, the late Superintendent Howe having stopped the custom because some of the pupils cut up capers much to the annoyance of the fair managers.
 The agricultural society will lose money this year on account of the bad weather Up to last night the gate re- ceipts were over $2,50O behind those of the first three days of last year.
 The managers of the fair have at least the satisfaction of knowing that they have had the best exhibition ever held.

 Nomination for Govornor-Win Support
 George K. Day for Place on State Ticket
 Democratic Politics.
 Special 10 THE JOURNAL AND CouRIER.l
 Hartford, Sept. 21.-From the present indications 1t looks as if there was go- ing to be a big fight at the coming state democratic convention at New Haven over the nomination of candidate for governor. One of the gentlemen who have been prominently mentioned for the honor is the present lieutenant governor, Ernest L. Cady of this city. The Hartford delegates are strongly opposed to his nomination. The dele gation consists of fifteen gentlemen, and 1t is said that they will go to New Haven and vote first and last and all the time against the nomination of Lieutenant Governor Cady.
 The democrats in this state recognize the fact that the republican party has put in the field an exceptionally strong candidate for governor. and that in the present state of politics 1t will take an- other exceptionally strong candidate to successfully oppose him. The dele gates say that Lieutenant Governor Cady Is no man to put up against MT. Coffin.
 One of the members of the delegation called upon Judge Fenn of Winsted and asked him if he would accept the nomination should 1t be rendered him by the convention. Judge Fenn uncon- ditionally and absolutely declined to acceptit under any circumstances what ever.
 One of the delegates then went to New Haven and saw several prominent New Haven democrats at the Monticello club. He found them all floating and was informed that they were undecided upon anyone. As far as could be as certained, however, they were in favor of MT. Benedict of Greenwich, but as he had withdrawn they were all at sea. The only man who appeared to be at all acceptable to them was Judge Morris F. Beardsley of Bridgeport as the guber- material nominee. The Hartford en- issary telephoned immediately to ho- tel in this city, where the delegates were in secret session. He asked them if they would support Judge Morris F Beardsley of Bridgeport for the first place on the ticket. They replied that that name would be satisfactory to them and that, they would gladly SUD- port him for governor in preference to anyone else.
 The Fairfield and Litchfield county delegations are solid for Judge Boards ley. The Meriden delegation is also solid for Judge Beardsley.
 This action of the Hartford delegation in favoring' Judge Beardsley, and the apparent consent of the New Haven delegation to his name for the first place on the ticket means that in all probability a strong combination in his favor will be formed.
 All the delegations are also for George E. Day of the Pope Manufactur- ing company of Hartford, for treasurer. This Is kickover against Sanger.

An Entire F1e lily Approhsnded In New
 York Ci:. by Secret Service Men.
 New York; ept. 2l.-The tenement at No. sss Eas Forty-seventh street was raided to-dk sby the secret service de- tectives and all the members of an Italian family named Franko were ar rested on charge of manufacturing and passing counterfeit money. The prison CTS are Antonio Franko, Anna Clement. Franko's mother-in-law, Angelo Franko and two children, Frank and Rose Franko.
 The whole family were arraigned be- fore United States Commissioned AL exander in the federal building, who after hearing the charges, remanded them. Several storekeepers in East Forty-seventh street have been com plaining lately to the secret service au- thouitiS that good deal of counter felt money was passed upon them, par ticularly 10 cent and 25 cet pieces. The detectives made some inquiries in the neighborhood and foud that the bad money was put in circulation by two children, who proved to be Frank and Rose Franko. The boy is nine and the girl seven years of age. Their parents gave them the money to make pur- chases and were careful to divide their patronage among as many stores as possible.
 The detectives found the molds and a quantity of spurious dies and quarters. The two Frankos and the mother-in- law were sent to Ludlow street jail and the children were taken in charge by the Gerry society.
