At the meeting of the finance committee last night the monthly bills, amounting to $9l ,53S 5l, were approved. Judge Cowell notified the board that the appeal of Harry Bronson from the report of the board of compensation awarding him $l .355 for damages to his property caused by widen ing South Elm street, had been withdrawn from the superior court. It cost Mir Bron- son $1 600 to move his house. Mir Bron- son appealed from the report of the board of compensation and took the matter into court. but finally decided to accept the offer of the board thinking it cheaper than to fight it. Auditor Cassin was requested to submit to the boald at it's next meeting the accounts of the ex-tax collectors who have not settled up. Dr Robbins appeared before the meeting in reference to the $23 which he claims the city still owes him. No action was taken on the matter.
 Nothing has yet been learned concerning the whereabouts of Dr William Coe Holmes of this city. who escaped from Dr Gris- wolds institute in Derby few days ago. Holmes was an inmate of the institute last summer, and was discharged as cured Last winter he accompanied his father, who is in feeble health. to Florida, and spent several months there, caring for him. Upon his return. several weeks ago, he was far from we'll. and again placed himself under Dr Griswold's charge. He has, in- frequently. been troubled with mild sort of insanity. and it is feared that during one of these temporary alterations of mind he has committed suicide. Holmes brother has arranged to have the Housa- tonic river dragged for the body. The police of all the near by cities. as we'll as the railroad officials. have been notified. A large body of searchers have also thor oughly explored the woods and surround ing country with no better results. He had but dttla money. but wore handsome diamond ring. which 1t is thought he may have pmwned. The pawn shops in New Haven and Bridgeport have beeh searched, but no trace has been found of the tinR.

Bold Robbery by a Lone
Bandit.
HE PROVES TO BE VERY COOL
An Excited Officer Wounds Two
Railroad Men---The Rob-
ber Escapes.
HE PROVES TO BE VERY COOL

Fresno, Jan. 10.-One of the boldest
rObberles in tne criminal annals of tins
county took place this evening shortly
after seven o'clock at the railroad sta.
tion in Fowler. Howard Harris and a
friend named Vincent went to get a
a package at the station. Harris, look
ing through a window, saw four men
holding up their hands He immedi-
ately suspected something was worng.
and advised Vincent to run for an Off
Ger. Vincent claimed it could only be
Joke, but Harris insisted otherwise
They were about to turn back, when a
man quickly came out of the door with
a revolver in each hand ana ordered
them to come in the office. Harris ard
Vincent obeyed with alaciity, and acre
arranged alongside the other men in
the room. The latter were Station
Agent Leon, Railroad Section Boss Lobe
another section han1 AMI q stranger.
The robber went about his work very
colly, keeping his victims veil covered,
From Harris he got $40; Station Agent
Leon contributed $50, and smaller sums
were taken from the others. After nav
ing made them hand over their money.
the robber ordered them TO march OF.
ahead, threatening with a eep cath
to kill the first man who ran or made
an outcry. He asked one cf them,
what store Is that over yon1et?" and
was told it was the Kntner Goldstein
Company's store. Upon this he COM
manded his victims to march over there
keeping them covered all the time. All
six were marched into the store, and
the robber then ordered the clerks TO
thow up their hands. Constable Chas.
Oakes had seen the men enter the store
and suspecting something wrong, ran
up TO it with a revolver in his hand
and fired at the robber several times,
The robber returned the fire, hitting
Oakes in the hip, and seriously wound
ing him. The desperado's other vic
Tins lost no time in getting to a place
of safety. The robber had an excellent
team of horses waiting for him, and
jumped in the buggy during the excite
ment following the shooting and es-
capped Two section hands were palm
fully wounded by Oakes, who fired
somewhat indiscriminately The rotbei
impaired the information that his ZEAL
name was Morrell and that he was
Evans friend.
The accomplice of the robber is sup
posed to be no other than Chris Evans.
Four deputies were sent from the sher-
ifs office here in pursuit.

hotly whether a member while making

'oLPH ON PENNoYER's LETTER

Washington, Jan. 10.-Peffers resolu-
tion providing for an inquiry into the
delay in the construction of public
buildings was adopted.
German, replying to PETER, said the
trouble was that congress made appro.
priaGons for more public buildings with
IN the last few years than it had been
physically possible to construct. The
appropriations of the government dur
ing the past three years exceeded by
over SSOO,OOO,OOO the total revenues of
the government.
Call thought it important that all pub
lie buildings to be constructed should
be begun as soon as possible in order
to give employment to the millions OF
unemployed American laborers now in
actual need and distress.
Senator Dolph did not think it the
duty of the government to provide for
the general destitution. He referred to
the communication of the governor OF
Oregon to the president, declaring the
people of his state indignant at the gov.
ernor, and had adopted resolutions 2e-
nying his statements.

DEMOCRATS IN CONVENTION.

Harrisburg, Pa, Jan. 1O.-The demo-
cratic state convention for the nomina.
tion of a congressman-at-large met at
noon.
The platform adopted endorses the
Cleveland administration which main
tanned the faith of the government at
home and upheld its honor and dignity
abroad. 1t declares the present dis
turbed conditions of the country finan-
cially due to the republican tariff laws,
extravaganza in national expenditures,
unwise political legislation, and that it
is now only slowly recovering through
the fidelity and consistency of abe
democratic president. 1t demands the
repeal of the Mckinley law.
James Bolton Hancock, of Franklin,
was nominated for congressman-at-
large by acclamation.

night l shall have no official infor-
nation before that time. The dispatches

There is nothing in the secretary's man.
ner to indicate any feeling of regret
that the matter had reached the present
status, and it was evident that the ad-
ministration has no intention of pro-
ceeding further without the advice of
congress.

Congress to be Memoralized to Protect

New York, Jan. 1O.-The National AS
sociation of Wool Manufacturers met
here today Several prominent men
made speeches denouncing the Wilson
bill, in so far as 1t affects the wool bus
mess, A protest was prepared and
adopted with instructions that copies be
sent President Cleveland and members
of congress. The protest declares the
meeting represents the allied wool in
dustries of the country, with an invest
ed capital of $5OO,OOO,OOO. Assembled to
protest against a measure which threat
ems to destroy a large part of this cap
ital, and leave protection OF the remain
der uncertain. The wools and woolen
schedule of the Wilson bill are so drawn
as to entail upon American manufac-
turers a maximum loss and embarrass-
ment and offer to foreign competitors
possession OF the American market at
a minimum risk" and the effort partic-
ularly protests against the proposed
rates of duty ad valorem as insufficient
without accompanying specific duties to
equalize the present differences between
foreign and domestic cost OF production.
In closing, the document says. I'VE
appeal to the patriotism OF the Ameri-
can congress to prevent the consumma-
ton of this national misfortune; and we
appeal to our fellow citizens in every
walk of life to second our protest
against the legislation of an act of ex-
tirpatiOn.
