WAS HURr1N MgRIDEN.
Supposed Heir to an English Estate Valued
 at Two Millions.

SuDDOBBu heiT tO bu l1hSfhSih AAstatO eNAuCNA
 at Two Millions.
 Lawyers in England are trying to locate Sir George w, Northedge, an heir to title and an estate of two millions They have made inquiries in this city, and have received some in- formation which may help them in finding the man.
 It is believed that Northedge for rnerly lived in this city He answers the description of George W. Northedge who lived in West Haven about twenty years ago, and had carpenter shop.
 About twelve years ago he was in- jured in Meriden by the door of a freight car falling on him. He sued the Consolidated road, but the matter was compromised. The road made him station master at West Haven Soon after he was discharged for drinking.
 Later he became a nurse. One night he became angry with a patient and assaulted him. He was arrested and fined. Northedge disappeared from this city after that affair and nothing more was thought of him until the in- quiries were received from abroad.
 From the information given in the letters of inquiry it seems that North edge put in an appearance in England about three years ago, shortly after the death of his benefactor He proved his identity and on the strength of his prospects received a large sum of money in advance of the settlement of his claim. Shortly after receiving this money he disappeared and since then all trace of him has been lost.

MATTERS FOR DIPLOMATS
SECT. GRESHAM WILL NOT TALK ON
 THE ALLIANCA AFFAIR.

He Said Though That 1t Was Unfortunate
 That the Instructions Sent to Minister
 Taylor Should Have Been Published
 Captain Crossman Persists in His State
 ment That He Was Fired Upon.
 New York, March 15.-Captain Cross man of the Allianca was asked this af- ternoon what he had to say i'm an- swer to the Spanish minister's state ment that the captains story about a Spanish warship firing at his vessel was probably untrue. The captain re- piled: "What the Spanish minister said regarding the matter does not alter the fact that we were fired upon, and in precisely the same manner in which l described the matter.
 He does not know what he is talking about. His object in making such statements is, of course, plain, but it does not affect the case in the least"
 Washington, March 15.-Secretary Gresham declined tonight to discuss the Allianca matter in any way.
 This is matter of diplomatic pro- cedure," said General Gresham, "and you can understand that it would not be proper form to talk about. It is un- fortunate that the instructions sent MT. Taylor should be published and seen in the public press before Spain has had an opportunity to reply. But even if the question were a proper one for dis cussion by me I do not see what can say. You have seen the instructions and they speak for themselves. They represent the position of this govern ment and contain all that can be possi- bly said at this time"
 For the reasons given MT. Gresham also declined to say whether or not he had heard from Minister Taylor since the instructions were sent, but it was stated on good authority that MT. Tay- Tor had not communicated with the de- partment and further that no answer is expected before tomorrow. The de- mand made by MT. Taylor in accord ance with his instructions was for prompt" disavowal and expression of regret on the part of Spain, and it is not impregnable that he will wait foran answer before replying to MT. Gresh- am.

"EiIeen oeen Monday Might.

Sa. Patrick's Y. M T. A. B. Dramatic association will present Eileen Oge" at the Hyperion Monday evening. The play, as may be judged from it's name, is Irish, and it is original in plot aIald dialogue It deals in a most realistic way with Irish life.
 Of those who take part in the play it can be said that they are most excellent actors. Although amateurs, they are superior to a very large number of pro- fessionals. The presentation will be well attended, as the sale of seats has been most gratifying.

THAT OPEN LETTER.

When a United States Senator
50 far forgets the dignity OF MS
high official position as to descend
to such questionable methods of
stirring 10 the populace in order
to gain political preferment, we
think the intelligence which he
misrepresents should see to it
that he no longer holds the trust of
which he has proven SO unworthy.

fair. For fifteen thousand men to quit
work in a body. and convert themselves
IN an hour from quiet workmen into a
body Of idlers and loafers. is a serious
matter. and fraught with the possibility
OF very important consequences.
Nevertheless, these men have right to
quit work and become idlers II they
choose 10 do so. IL is their affair, and
no one has right TO say to them nay
~ they choose 80 exercise ,neir privilege.
The Times. in maintaining the right OF
the workman. but in insisting that when
he exercises IT, he shall respect the rights
OF all other men inviolably. Is the best
friend the workingman has. The true
friend and counsellor Of the working
man Is the person who demands that
the rights OF ali men shall be respected.
lie IS giving just as friendly and good ad-
vice TO the workman when ne counseis
him against interfering with the rights
Of another as when nc insists that the
workman himself shall be at liberty to
quit work when he pleases and to re-
main out OF work as long as he pleases
