nr Lucius A. smith.


 Dr. Lucius A. Smith died of pneumonia at his late residence, No. 137 Milton street, (Greenpoint), Brooklyn, N. Y on Friday, the 9th instant. He was born in the town of Prospect, Conn.,, on July Il, 1881. He received 8 common school edu- cation in New Haven, and entered the medical department of Yale college, re- ceiving the degree of doctor of medicine in 1859. Having been appointed as as- sistant physician at the State Asylum for the Insane at Hartford, Conn.,, he left New Haven to assume these new duties. He filled this position fol about one year. Resigning this charge he returned to New Haven, where he began work as a practis- ing physician, which work. however, in the course of few months he was obliged to relinquish on account of i'll health. Later he came to New York city, where he attended a course of lectures at the College of Physicisns and Surgeons with the intention of resuming his practice.
 Throughout his life he had a fopdness for the study of marine architecture, and during the war in 1863 he relinq uished all intentions of following the practice of medicine, devoting himself now entirely to the study of naval architecture and en- gineering, and became associated with the Continental works, retaining his connec- tion with 1t up to the time of his death. He took charge of the designing and construction of vessels, and was known as g naval architect of rare judgment and ability. He was man of marked intel lectual power, and his opinion on engine er- ing subjects was invaluable.
 Dr. Smith was a member of the General Society of Mechanics and Tradesmen, the American Society of Civil Engineers, the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers, as well as Hiram lodge, F. and A. A., of New Haven, Conn. In his char. acter as g man he was universally loved and respected.

DANBURY,s RIG SENSATION.

The Leading Hating Firm to Re.
 move Its Business to Newark-The
 ToWnsPeOPle Dismayed-A Severe
 Loss to she Place-The Union Men
 Upset-A Conference of the Two Committees Finally Occurs.
 DANBuRY, Jan. s-A startling new phase in the situation here has developed. Beckerle & Co.,, who have the largest hat factory in Connecticut and who employ 500 hands, announced to-day that they will remove to Newark, N. J. Tho first ship ment of machinery was made to-day and tho work of removal will proceed @ ex- psditiously ss possible, as tue firm wants to get located in their new quarters in time to start work on spring goods. For the past five years the pay roll of this firm has exceeded $40O, 900 annually, and the loss to this city by its removal will be in- ealcuable.
 In Newark the firm will run its factory independently of trades unions, something it has found impossible to do in this city. Not only will Danbury lose the manu- factory, but in addition it will lose Will liam beckerle's Immense eGock fafm on which are 200 high bred horses.
 It is thought that this move of Beckerle | & Go. will break the ranks of the union matters who have for six weeks refused to go to work in the twenty factories that
 closed their doors against the unions and have since tried unsuccessfully to open aa independent shops. It is too late now to prevent the removal of Beckerle & Co.,,
 and it is thought that the matters before
 they will see the other manufacturer
 leave will give up their unions and ac'
 knowledge defeat. Many of the other | manufacturers have their arrangements
 nearly completed for removing elsewhere.
 Since they first signifed their intention
 . week ago of moving out of Danbury they have received hundreds of letters from al
 parts of the country offering inducements to move.
 For 8 week past a third party has besr making efforts to bring committees of the Hat msnufacturers' association and the
 1ocked-out hatters together. The effort was crowr ed with success to-day and this ! afternoon the two committees will hold g conference and an attempt will be made te 1 effect compromise. The hatters are willing to make concessions, but the man ufacturers will probably refuse to enter ! tain anything but complete surrender or | the part of the men.

FREIcHrINC coop
On the Consolidated Road Consider T ing tho Times. 4-5-=E

ing the Times.
 On the New York, New Haven and Hart ford and the New York and New England railroads the passenger travel is almost wholly local, and, with the exception of an increase during the holidays, has been very dull. But the freight traffic has hung on with g strong grip. The New York, New Haven and Hartford road, considsring the time, has done . good freight business. During the last few months . pronounced boom in freight traffic has taken place. In one week 113.000 tons of freight were shipped east from Chicago. This freight, of course, is made up of general merchan- disc from the great cities of the west. It is distributed by different systems all through the east. The freight received from the Lshigh Valley road each week amounts to a very considerable f9uie, about 12,000 tons a week. This is dis. tributed along the different divisions of the road.
 The New York, New Haven and Hsrt- ford road has received good share of this western freight and has been running heavy trains of late. Thursday 350 car loads of freight passed through Hartford. Most of this is northbound. It consists mostly of general merchandise and coal.
