 Back.

 PEOVInENCE, Juno 4.-The employees of tho Atlantic mills havo expressed them selves as woll satisfied with the situation, and stato that they consider the strike as only begun and fear it will last all sum mor. Al a meeting of the Textile union the names of all employees who had re- turned to work at the Atlantic mills were read and while over loo looms arc run ming it is claimed thoy are being operated by the wOrsted help.
 Of all the Olnoyville wcavors not moro than per cent returned to work when the gates werc opened, and with this num- Der it is assorted that 1t will be impossible to run tho mills for any length of time, Contrary to custom. tho mill gates were open all day, and a small increase was added to the number that was sent back. At the Providence and National and Saranao mills, operated by Proprietor Fletcher a leading member of the Manu- | lecturers olub, only 250 operatives out of l 8, 900 were at work No weavers or loom l nxers went back, and these mills will be unable to run without them. Forty weav- CTS out of ll0 were W orking at tho Man ton mills, and F additional worsted en- ployees went to work.
 At the Atlantic mills less than 200 em- ploye ees wore working. Only about 60 weavors reported for duty there. Out oi | S. 800 operatives in Olneyville less than | 5000 wcre at work. At d meeting of the Textile union it was unanimously voted to continue the demand for an increase ol wages. A suggestion of compromise was | dismissed.

 The annual election for officers for the South Brooklyn school district will take place on the fifteenth of this month and great interest is mapifested in the result. It is stated that the women intend to. vote. but some of the men object to this and hold that they have no right to the fran chise in the town school districts. We think the act giving the women the right to vote for school officers holds good good in the towns as we'll as in the cities and if the ladies of South Brooklyn who desire to vote have registered in the man. neT prescribed by law, those who think differently will find it difficult to deny them the right to vote for every school officer in theIdistrict.
 S-Residents of South Brooklyn have a grievance which is likely to culminate in a lawsuit against the town. Three years ago when MT Pinney was first selectman, it is stated that town meeting voted to widen the bridge on South Leonard street. under the New England railroad crossing. and made an appropriation for that pur- pose, but so far nothing has baen done towards proceeding with the work. The roadway under the bridge is only about eight feet wide and the bridge is but nine feet high, so that a load of furniture can- not pass under it. A resident of that sec ton said this morning that there must have been some negligence in this matter on the part of the selectmen, else the worE would have been done long since

 NEW YORK. June 4.-There is no doubt in the minds of the sporting mon but that the fight scheduled to take place between Corbett and Fitzsimmons will come of at Dallas in the latter part of October next Mir. Dan Stewart, who represents a syndicate of business men who are anx- ious to hold the mill near Dallas, had a conference in an up town resort last even ing with Joe Vendig. the representative of the Florida Athletic club
 The Florida Athletic club, according to the articles of agreement signed by Fitz- simmons and Corbstt last year, claims to have tho right of procedure no matter where the fight comes of in the United States, and Vcndig insists that his club can command the right of naming any place to bring the fight off.
 William A. Brady, Corbett's manager, said: "The representatives of the Dallas people and the Florida Athletic club met, and think that everything is all right The fight will come of most probably in the latter part of October next near Dal- las, and my man (COrbett) will have the best of 1t. "
 QUEBEC, June 4.-Attorney General Casgrain was asked if there would be any objection on his part to tho Corbett- Fitz- simmons fight coming of in this province. He said, Ut certainly will not take place in this province if l can help it.

To the Democratic Warden and Burgesses of Naugatuck:

To the Democratic Warden and Burgesses
 of Naugatuck:
 Gentlemen-You have been elected by the citizens of Naugatuck to the offices mentioned above and the people look to you for a change in the officers that it IS in your power to appoint You have done very well thus far and all of the offices are filled but that of chief of police of this borough.
 Why don't you elect democrat as chief of police? The people want change, expect one, end the chairman of the democratic town committee, William Kennedy, has told you your plain duty in this matter and what the law is. and that you have the power to remove George Hosford. Why wait or sleep on this matter any longer. Some may say that Hosford is doing better now. I admit that is true, but the set back he received in the district court in Waterbury and the change in the officers of the bor- ough government has made Hosford some what civilized and milder Tn his treatment of the reople. Look, in fact, at our po- licemen to-day and remember their actions l two years ago and one would hardly be- | lieve they were the same men. But the police department wants a new head. Let l us have it tonight.
 Several names have been mentioned, all good men. The people expect a soter man appointed; one that will attend % the duties of the office. He can certainly keep | the liquor saloons closed as we'll as Hos ford does. But above all let him be a man ! of good character whom the people have | confidence in, and gentleman. The lot | of police officer is not on easy one. but there are any number of young democrats | in this borough who will accept the office, if you will only do your duty. Wake up; | act like honest democrats. Don't be afraid
 to do your duty. Stand by your party. Remember this, the republican board last year gave only republicans positions, and even went so far as to keep only those that
 wore the black Schaffer stripe employed
 on the roads except A day or two at a
 time)
 Have mentioned sufficisnt matters now to open your eyes. What will you do: James Glynn from Union City, that don {
 believe in one man power and yet you de.
 clare if the other three democrats don't
 agree with you that you must have your way? That kind of talk might do for a
 boy, but is rather novel for a reformer. | The next man. Jeremiah Dunn, say
 somethiT tonight. Don't let any person
 think for One moment you are afraid tc
 act Be manly in this matter Stevens
 and Cleary will vote for a change and the
 people will praiseyou all for your worl
 and even the wild democrats will forgive
 you for beng so slow in the past.
