ROGER CONNOR'S FUTURE
He VIII Probably be Found ut New
York's Initial Corner as Usual.

He VIII Probably be Found Mt New
YOrk's Initial Corner Usual.
Roger Connor has not yet signed a con-
tract for 1894, but is not losing sleep on
that account. 1t is safe to say that he will
be found at the old stand in New York,
however. Joe Villa, the New York CORES
pendent of Sporting Life, writes:
while l have been rather conservative
during the wild talk about releasing Roger
Common and playing Jack Doyle on first
base. feel that to hide my feelings lon
ger will be a mistake which 1 shall have
cause to regret. To release Roger Connor
will be blunder that the New York club
cannot set right. The big fellow can play
first base with anybody in the business,
barring Tucker and Beckley. If the club
had been able to secure either of these
stars Roger Connor would have had to go.
But Ward has never had an idea of play
ing anybody else on first base with Tucker
and Beckley impossibilities. This talk
about putting Jack Doyle on first base is
insane. Jack is needed behind the bat
where he has already shown ability to
catch magnificent ball. He is not large
enough to cover first base and besides, he
is not at all anxious to take that position.
Conner is popular with everybody and
played good enough ball last year to suit
the public. His batting was above 800,
which means considerable. While he
isn't an aggressive player and doesn't
block base runners, a la Tucker, still he is
reliable and conscientious. Roger has
missed but two games in the last two
years. record that few players can boast
of. 1t is pretty good betting that the
veteran will be found right on the first
base again this season and that Doyle will
be one of the repnlar catchers"

A Talk With ID. Il. Fitzpatrick.

what are the prospects that primaries
will be held to decide the choice of the
Waterbury democrats for the Office of post
master?" was asked Assistant Postmaster
D. E. Fitzpatrick to-day.
well 1 will tell you. Congressman
Pigott has informed me that he will en-
dorse the choice of the Waterbury demo-
Gratis, and see no other way that can be
determined than by an election. Mr.
PigGtt's time has been SO taken up with
his other duties during the past week that
he, no doubt, has been unable to attend to
it, but am assured that the matter will
be settled at an early date"
What if Mr. Brown refuses to take any
part in the primaries?"
well, can't see as that will make any
difference. He knows what is best for
himself If a man wants to lead in q pro-
eession he should be on hand when it is
forming and not wait for 1t to pass his
house"
Said prominent democrat when asked
the same question. The democrats of
this town are we'll able to manage their
own affairs and will not countenance the
tumbling in of any candidate ;;on top of
them by outside politicians. Let us by
all means submit the question in a true
democratic way to the people as they are
aroused and if they are not allowed to
speak now they may speak later in no I'M
certain way. If the powers that be do
not request an election, then let the demo
cratic town committee take up the issue
and force it. The postoffice should never
be u political sinecure, as it is the hub of
our business wheel and the postmaster
should be selected for his business quail

stated that Albert ]. Blakesley had brought
suit for absolute divorce, on statutory
grounds, against his wife, and that the pa
pers had been served yesterday by Consta-
BILE Egan.
At the Waterbury bank A. NJ. Blakesley,
father of A. j. Blakesley, was seen this
morning by reporter and said he knew
knothing about the affair beyond what he
had seen in the morning paper. His son
lived in the house adjoining him, he said,
and he thought if there. were any truth in
the statement he should know something
about it.
Albert J. Bhkesley was found in the
rooms of the Waterbury club and on being
questioned about the matter signed the fol-
lowing for publication in the DEMOCRAT:
The report printed in the Republican of
this morning that have instituted divorce
proceedings against my wife is a lie COM
pletely and entirely.
ALBERT j. BLAKEsLEY
Mr. Blakesley said he had no idea of the
origin of the report. His wife and child
are in New York on a visit and he received
letter from her this morning which he
would be pleased to show to anyone who
might doubt his word.
Constable Egan said he had served no
papers on Mrs Blakesley and knew abso-
lutely nothing about the matter
Evidently the Republican has been i'm
posed upon.

SHROUDED IN MYSTERY.
Nelson Normand Unconscious For Nor
Than u Week.

Nelson Normand Unconscious For More
Than Week.
The mystery surrounding the case of
Nelson Normand of Meadow street, who
has been unconscious for more than a
week has not yet been solved. The police
were notified yesterday and are working
upon the case.
This morning. for the first time, Nor
mand spoke a few Ineligible words to his
wife, but at once relapsed into comatose
condition. At times he seems to realize
what is going on and makes an effort to
speak but always until to-day without sue
cess. He appears to be suffering from con-
cussion of the brain.
Mrs Normand said this morning that
her husband left home on Friday of last
week at IL o'clock in the forenoon and
started for Brooklyn to see Patrick Keough.
He was seen talking with a man named
Daudlin on the Brooklyn bridge between
II and l o'clock, and is said to have been
In Bank street saloon during the after
noon. At 80 he was brought home I'M
conscious in a wagon by two men, and has
remained in that condition for more than
a week. The police were not notified at
first, because it was thought that the man
would recover consciousness and throw
some light on the mysterious affair Nor
mand Is spoken OF as quiet, sober man
He is a member of Court Linden, A. 0. F.
of A. He has wife and two young
children.
DR. Frenzy. the attending physician, said
this afternoon that Normand apparently
understands what is said. He is regaining
strength daily.
The police We're notified that the man
had $50 when he left home, and when
found he had but S25. Chief Egan says,
however. that it is hardly probable that he
was hit on the head and then left at his
home by his assailants. He may have
been drugged and carried home.

LETTERsFRoM THE PEOPLE

Democrat Who Fears Caucus For
Postmaster Would Disrupt the Party.
To the Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
do not approve of the plan which Con-
gresham Pigott recommends in order to
make selection for postmaster. While it
may be safe way out of the dilemma for
the congressman himself. yet regard it as
detrimental to the interest of the local
democracy, inasmuch as if put to vote OF
the people it cannot fail to cause dissen-
sions in the ranks of the party, which are
not likely to be wiped out for some time.
How can it be otherwise? Each candidate
has a strong backing among the prominent
democrats of the town, and a contest such
as Congressman Pigott suggests must
necessarily create breach, not only
among the leaders, but also in the rank and
file of the party which is not likely to be
healed until the party suffers some crush
ing defeats at succeeding elections. The
two rival candidates are excellent repre-
sentatives of the democracy of Waterbury
and deserve well of their fellow democrats,
but neither candidate is greater than his
party, and for this reason alone hold that
the future welfare of the party should not
be endangered in an effort to elevate
either candidate to the position. Our con-
gresham is credited with possessing the
courage of his convictions. Let him make
the appointment then, and bear the re-
sponsibility and thus save the local
democracy from struggle which is sure to
result in leaving many, of the principal
offices in the town and city an easy prey
for our opponents.
