Said a prominent New Haven gentle man yesterday: New Haven in case of a war with Great Britain would be apt to get a taste of war. IT nine of our big battleships should happen to be lying around in this vicinity and some of the big battleships of England should happen this way enroute to tackle New York defences, New Haven might get dose of British shell and heavy shot. New Haven was visited by the B,it.sh in the war of the revolution and cur local historians have told us much about the British Invasion" of New Haven. Every now and then a t&n- non ball is dug up at Beacon Hill and vicinity as q relic of that ir9 aS!on. Adjutant Campbells grave is a historic spot. The old stone in Morris Cove tells of the visit of the British forces. Now what has New Haven got in the way of hArbor defences. Gaze at the wrecked and dilapidated bomb proofs at Fort Hale and the spot where the old fort stood New Haven could bring forth its cannon from which its Fourth of July salutes are fired on East Rock This would be about the only menace the city could make in the way of ar tillery against attacking Britons. One for years advocated New Ravens need of harbor defences. The apparent need of them crops out just now

 Treasurer George F. Hodson, secre- tary of the Winchester Repeating Arms company, said yesterday in ans wer as to what the capacity os the company was to turn out arms and ann intuition for the government in case of war being declared with England:
 We could turn out from 500 to LOGO stands a day of any known arms manu- factured at present. and We could turn out cartridges much as water runs over fall. We now have from fifteen to twenty models which We manufacture. but perhaps the government. if we should go to war, would want a new gun. In that case we shall adapt ,5ul'- selves to it's manufacture. This would involve a short delay, but l think we could succeed in getting out the arms" OUR POWERFUL HARBOR DE-

Charles Hoyt made an ambitious at

environments, and has succeeded bravely.
He made money and acquired fame by
toying with horse plays, in which plumb
ers, tramps, society folks and black-stock-
inged damsels lined up before the foot
lights and did variety business-but it was
just what the public wanted to see. He

at the California Theater, is one of the
most amusing comedies, as well as one of

Mr.. Hoyt has succeeded in placing humor
and pathos in juxtaposition with each

noticeable in the third act where Mink

draw up an agreement to the effect that
the woman was to live with her first hus-
band certain length of time and if she
was not satisfied he was to draw off and the
other man to take her. The second hus-
band has left town and she is now living

TO SETTLE With
THE BLYTHE HEIRS.
FLORENCE BLYTHE HINCKLEY
WILLING TO PAY OFF THE
OTHER CLAIMANTS.
NEGOTIATING FOR A LOAN
OFFERS OF A SETTLEMENT AC-
CEPTED BY SOME AND Re-
JECTED BY OTHERS.

An effort is being made to satisfy all
claims against the Blythe estate To that
end Florence Blythe Hinckley is endeavor-
ing to negotiate loan for 100000. This
sum, it is understood, is to be used in set
tling with the other claimants.
The 100000 which she will borrow, to-
gether with the $4,000 in the possession
of the Public Administrator. is considered
sufficient to pay off all claims. There is
$1,000 month coming in from the estate
All this money goes to the Public Admin
| lstrator, and though Judge Coffey rendered
decision in favor of Mrs. HinckIey in the
famous will contest she has derived no
benefit from the Judgment.
Now her attorneys are making overtures
to the various claimants and considerable
progress has been made in the direction of
settlement. The Roach heirs, whose
claim comes through Mrs. Welch, a sister
of Thomas Blythe, have offered to settle
for $26, 800, and this amount will probably
be paid them if an agreement can be
reached with the others. The Pinnies,
widow and son, will take $17,500, and Mat
lngly, who secured a judgment for $3.50, 900,
has been offered SIS, 900.
Henry E. Highton, who represents Alice
Edith Dickson Blythe, would not discuss
the subject yesterday. 1t was stated that
he had been offered S35, 900 ia settlement
Of his claim. This he would not affirm.
George w. Towle will take his claim into
the United States court. He represents
the Blythe Company, the members of
which are foreigners and which never had
day i'll court as according to law it is en-
titled to. This action will tend to further
compLcate matters and prevent a settle
ment. The purpose of the suit brought by
Towle is to vacate and set aside the judg-
ment rendered by Probate Judge Coffey in
favor of Florence Blythe-Hinckley. This
action may be followed up by others of
like nature.
S. W. Holiday, of the law firm of Holla-
day d Holiday, who are attorneys for
Henry I. Blythe ct al, the Gypsy heirs,
said that they would not appeal to the
United States courts until they got through
with their bills of exception in the State
courts. He felt that they were standing
on firm legal ground and would ultimately
justify their position.
"No overtures have been made to us for
settlement" he said, Though / under
stand that move is being made in that
direction.
~ would not" he said in answer to a
question as to the value of the Judgment
in favor of Florence Blythe -Hinckley, ''ad
vance her enough money to buy lunch on
her title, and it seems to me that they

rowing money"
According to the new proposition for
settlement Florence Blythe-Hinckley is to
receive the western one-half of the block
on Market street and Grant avenue, and
will assume her proportion of the outside
claims.
