CONNECTICUT ELECTIONS.

Unprecedented Gains For Republicans Fol
Town Officers.
New HAVEN, Conn, Oct. 3.-Re
turns from 100 towns Of Connecticut
show unprecedented gains for the Re-
publicans in the town elections. Towns
that have not elected Republican fowl
officers in years went Republican by
good majorities. In Waterbury, the A
p. A. movement aroused the Catholics
who succeeded in electiug an entire
schoolboard of Catholics. In New Brit
ain, the no license vote Of one year age
is reversed. The liquor question has
been under constant discussion during
the year. In almost all towns where
the A. P. A. made q fight, they met
with defeat. Meriden, Norwich, Mid
dletown and New Milford, which have
been Democratic for years, were cap
tured by the Republicans, but New
London elected Democratic mayor,
displacing Republican. The Repuf
licans, however, captured all the other

FEARFUL DESTRUCTION.
A British Naval Onicer Gives Details of the

A British Naval Officer Gives Details OF the
Yalu Naval Battle. 49, -
LONDON, Oct. "a British naval
officer attached to the Chinese naval
squadron, which was engaged in the
fight off the mouth of the Yalu river,
has written letter to The Graphic, in
which he gives additional details Of the
fighting and says: ..... --n
On board the Chen Yuen the fighting
was awful. The decks and the space
around the guns was strewn with hui.
man fragments. Three of five men
working four-ton gun were blown up
by shell from the Japanese warship
Naniwa. The fourth gunner was shot
while trying to escape from the turret,
and the fifth stuck to his post.
This man fired three rounds at the
Naniwa, one shell entering the engine
room of the Japanese ship, and the
other smashing her forebridge. The
Nan;wa then hauled off. The Chinese
admiral rewarded the Surviving gunner
with 1000 taels.
Fearful Destruction.
A shell glanced from the steel deck
of the Chen Yuen and went through
her tower, shattering everything there
in. A lieutenant who was in the act of
speaking through the tube leading to
the engine room was blown to pieces.
Huge fragments Of armor, and the
teak backing thereof, were carried on
board by the shot, crushing large
number Of sailors into shapeless mass.
The Chen Yuen arrived at Wei Hal
Wei the day after the fight, in the same
condition she left the battle. No attempt
had been made to wash the blood from
her, nor to remove the corpses which
strewed her decks.
The writer expresses the opinion that
if the European rulers could have seen
the decks Of the Chen Yuen they would
have foresworn war henceforth and
forever.

THE BANDERILLO INIPALED
One of the Animals Dashes Into the
Audience---Many Killed and
y # Injured.

New YORK, Oct ga special dis
patch from Zacatecas, Mex, says four
persons were killed and many Others
injured at bull fight in the little town
of Mesquite, in the state Of Jalisco.
Two bulls, both wild and vicious, were
turned into the ring at once. To kill
these was task designed to bring all
the fighters into action at once. = The
bulls were soon apparently worn out in
their efforts to elude or reach the ban
deriAos. who tortured them by forcing
into their necks short pointed irons
from which floated gay.colored ribbons.
At first they charged right and left but
the agile banderillos escaped, and at
last the bulls stood at bay.
The crowd cheered and again the tor.
mentors resumed their efforts. A ban
derillo approached one of the bulls,
waving a red cloth.
The Animal Charged Him
but he jumped aside and drove the iron
into the thick skin of the neck, The
banderillo had forgotten the second bull,
which was upon him before he knew it.
The animal caught him on his horns.
tossed him over his back and gored him
through. AS others ran to rescue, the
bull raised his head with the banderillo
impaled on his horn and charged his
tormentors.
In the meantime the first bull had
leaped over the barrier separating the
ring from the spectators and dashed
into the crowd. Many persons were
gored and panic ensued. Men, women
and children made a rush for the single
entrance. In their efforts to escape
three persons were trampled to death,
and many others were injured, some of
them fatally.

CHINA READY TO DEFEND,

TEN Ts1N, Oct. Sit is officially
announced that 5000 japanese troop:
have arrived close to Passiet bay, neal
the frontier. " .-"
Previous to this announcement it wa:
reported here that japanese fleet had
been sighted on Sept. 20, 10 miles from
Shang Hal Kwan, 200 miles from Pei
lin. Large bodies of Chinese troops
have been drafted to that district dur
ing the last few days, I'M order to pre-
vent the Japanese from landing.
Passiet bay is not far from Vladive
stock, the great Russian stronghold and
railroad terminus in the East. The
latter opens upon the Gulf of Peter the
Great, and the waters of Passiet bay
adjoin it. It is difficult to conjecture
the object of this move on the part OF
Japan, unless it is to
Protect the Right Flank
and rear of the japanese army from the
possible attack from the direction of the
Russian frontier. Then again, the
5000 men referred to might simply be
reinforcements for the japanese army
now marching upan Moukden.
AS already cabled. Times dispatch
from Shanghai says that it is reported
there that 1000 Japanese troops have
been landed on the Shan Tung coast,
between the Yellow river and Tien
Tsin. If this is true, the japanese are
within striking distance of Tien Tsin
and may be preparing to push on to Pc
kin, leaving the formidable Taku forts
on their right. Tien Tsin is the port Of
Pein, and is fully 10 miles distan,
from the capital of China.
