UNDER THE NEW LAW.

First Application for a Liquor License
Comes From Meriden.
The law passed by the general as
sembly which requires that applications
for liquor licenses shall be made to the
county commissioners instead of to the
town clerks went into effect Thursday.
Under the old law it was claimed that
the applications were advertised in OBJ
scure papers, while under the new law
the county commissioners may adver-
tise the applications where they please.
The first application under the new
law came to the county commissioners
yesterday from Meriden, and was for
warded to this city by Town Clerk
Hess.
Another law which took effect Thurs
day is that fixing the fee for liquor
license in towns of more than 5000 in
habitants at $400. The license was for
merly $3.50, but the New Haven county
commissioners recently reduced it to
$500 because of hard times. There are
several applications on file with the
commissioners for licenses, and the
board has ruled that these applicants
must pay the new license fee.

events on the card for to-day's grand
circuit meeting. 1t was the last regu-

in the history Of the Glenville track
The attendance was seven thousand,
The horses were called one hour earlier
than usual, in an effort to finish the
program,
In the PIT trot and the 2:10 pace the
heats were so split up and there were
so many accidents, such as thrown
shoes, ETC., that but one event was fin
ished. Beuzetta won the 2:13 trot in
straight heats, She was an even money
favorite against the field.
Colonel Kuser was a 10 to favorite
in the 2:17 trot. There was field of
thirteen and they were a long time in
getting away. Colonel Kuser drew d
bad position and did not drive for tho
first heat. Penelope won it, but the bet
ting did not change, She took the sec
ond heat also and although Colonel Ku-
ser did not finish better than eleventh,
he was still played favorite. The next
four heats were divided between Brava-
do and Kate Phillamont, both outsiders,
the favorite driving the latter out IN
the fifth and sixth.
There were but five starters in the
seventh heat and Colonel Kuser and
Bravado fought it out in the home
stretch, the former winning by half a
length.
In the 2;1O pace Coleridge was ia
vorite at 6 to in the books after win
ming the first heat in "a lively brush
down the stretch with Guinette. Paul.

betting, surprised every one by winning
the third heat.

ordered to Press the Case.

Washington, Aug. 2.-It is understood
that within the last forty-eight hours
a dispatch was sent to Ambassador Eus-
tbs instructing him to further press the
Waller case upon the attention of the
French government and to insist that
a full copy of the record in the trial
be furnished this government. A signi-
ficant part of these instructions was
that which directs Mr.. Eustis to convey
to the French government the fact that
this government in event of further re-
fusal to furnish the record requested
would be compelled to assume that the
sentence of Waller is indefensib1e on
the part of the French authorities.

Jubilee took in her baby jlbtopsail. Fif-
teen minutes later she set it again. The
Defender and Vlgllant kept theirs up.
AT 1920 the Volunteer shook out her
baby jibtopsail All four boats were on
the port tack at 1890.
The Defender was a mile ahead, the
Vigilant was slightly in the lead of
the Jubilee and the Volunteer half
mile astern.
The boats tackled on and off shore
down past Point Judith and out toward
Block Island, The big fleet of yachts
and steamers accompanied them and
hampered the last two boats. At IL
o'clock the Defender was one and one
half miles ahead of the Vigilant, who
was half mile ahead of the Jubilee
and the Volunteer was being badly left
in the rear Amid a din of screeching
whistles the Defender turned the first
mark, flag buoy off Block Island at
lao One mintue later her voluminous
spinnaker broke out on the starboard
side and at Las her big banoon jib
filled out to catch what wind was not
held in the mainsail and spinnaker.
The Vigilant turned at 146:29 and
squared away for the run to the second
mark. Her spinnaker was broken out
at twenty seconds after the turn and
balloon jibs later The Jubilee turned
at 1:50:0S, set her spinnaker two min
| utes later and balloon three minutes
| later. The Volunteer turned at 1:5S:30,
had her spinnaker drawing in thirty
| seconds and her balloon burst out for
| ward five minutes after the turn.
| On the run down the wind the Defend
er opened up a great gap, the Vigilant
drew away from the Jubilee and the
Volunteer dropped further astern. The
wind, which was only about TEN knots,
when the Defender squared away for
the run, increased gradually to about
eighteen knots when she reached the
second turn,a buoy off West Island
She took in her spinnaker at 1888, jibed
at 342 and turned the mark at 3:4410.
| With boom to port she started on the
reach for the last leg of six and half
miles to the finish. She held the course
thus a couple of minutes, but at 3:d6
crack! went the gaff and the Defender
was out of it.

DEFENDED.
Thurston's Friends Deny That
He is Guilty.
Related Facts Which Did Not Inter
fere With State Department.

WASHINGTON, March 22.-The sugges-
tion is made here that a movement will be
made In the future looking to Hawaiian
annexation, and. 1t is sid, that Mr..
Thurston, because OF his intimate knowl-
edge Of affcirs In both this country and
Hawaii. will have prominent connection
with any commission on the part of Hawaii
- negotiate for terms of admission into
the Union.
Although DIR. Thurston, the Hawaiian
minister, refused TO discuss the causes
that led to his estrangement with Secre-
tary Gresham, his friends think it only
fair to him to rcfute the published allega-
tion that he has betrayed diplomatic
secrets.
Admitting that Mr. Thurston did as Is
alleged, his friends assert that he did not
exceed his diplomatic duties in this respect
In making public the sentences imposed
on several of the Hawaiian conspirators
By ths military courts. The proceedings
Of the court were conducted openly, and
the sentences of the prisoners had been
publicly announced in Honolulu.
All the facts reached San Francisco by
che first mail steamer from the islands
Thurston's Friends Stand by Him.
Nh Thurstcn's friends say that he has
never abused official confidence or be-
trsyed any oficlal information contained
In the correspondence between his govern
ment or himself and the government of
ths United States or any Of its repre-
sentattves. IL is admitted that it would
have boon . manifest impropriety for him
70 divulgs any information receiv ed by the
pecrstary Of state touching the relations
between Hawaii and the United States.
At the same time 1t is claimed for him
that he was perfectly free to publish any
information he desired in regard to events
In Vie Hawaiian republic that came into
his possession entirely independent of the
state department.. provided he did not COM
ment on the action Of the Urited States
government In regard thereto.
Mr.. Thurston's defenders say that Sen.
ator Hale is right in saying that his recall
was justified IL he had made public diplo-
matic correspondence before submitting it
TO the state department, but they say the
senator Is entirely wrong in supposing
chat Mr.. Thurston has been guilty of any
such diplomatic impropriety.
According to their representations, he
merely related condition OF facts within
bis OWL country, received from his own
government, regarding which he had had
no diplomatic intercourse whatever with
the representatives Of the United States.
