COCK EIGHrERs FINED.
Twenty-six Convicted in Danbury Court
Yesterday--in All About Forty Were

Twenty-six Convicted III Danbury Court
Yester,lay--ln All About Forty Were
Captured In Raid bur -ome Got Away.
Danbury, March I.--About 1 o'clock
this morning the police of this city
learned that q number of sports had
arrived here from NorwaIR, Winnipauk,
Stamford Darien, Great Plains and
other towns in Fairfield county and
they suspected that a prize fight or
cooking main was to be pulled off.
Four officers were detailed on the case
and traced the sportssto a barn on West
Wooster street in the western part Of
the city.
When the police approached the barn
they heard suspicious noises and draw
ing their revolvers entered.
On the second floor of the barn were
between fifty and sixty men around a
pit in which two game cocks We're fight
ing.
The sports were taken completely by
surprise and numbar made rush for
the windows and door and jumped to
the ground distance of fifteen feet.
Several more escaped by sliding head
first down grain shute,
The officers succeeded in cornering
about forty of the sports and after
rounding them up started for the police
office. The four officers lost d number
OF their prisoners on the way to the
lookup and arrived there with but twen-
ty-seven Of this number. Twenty
three were residents of this city, the
others residing in Norwalk and Winni-
pauk They We're locked up for the
night and were arraigned before Judge
Scott this morning.
Twenty-six of the prisoners pleaded
guilty and were fined SIS and costs each,
amounting to $3.50. All settled and
were released.
The other prisoner is reporter on
the Danbury Dispatch. He pleaded not
guilty and informed the court that he
attended the cooking main for BUSH
ness and not for pleasure. He was dis
charged.
1t was the biggest raid of the kind
that has ever taken place hereabouts.
The attempt to hold the main so near
the business center of the town is re-
garded as one of the boldest pieces of
work on the part Of Fairfield sports for
many years.
Agent Thrall for the Connecticut HUI
name society at Hartford sent word
here to-day that he will be in Dan
bury tomorrow to take possession of
the game cocks which were captured
by the police last night in connection

birds are at the police station The
agent will prosecute the principals at

Bunth and Rudd, though filling their
first New Haven engagement, have al
ready become great local favorites ow-
ing to the highly entertaining charac-
ter of the eccentric speciality that they
are presenting at Polls Wonderland
theater. There Is wonderful variety
of features in the composite speciality
they present, each one seeming to be
more amusing than the others, and the
combination of eccentric movements
and funny situations makes as comical
an entertainment as the imagination
can conceive. Bunth and Rudd are al

they have been in the country but q

IN DEADLY PERIL.


Axle OF Express Engine Breaks When Mt
Full Speed.
Larchmont, N. Y, March 11.-There
was a remarkable escape from what
might have proved terrible accident
on the New York division Of the Con-
solidated road yesterday afternoon.
At 4:30, as the Naugtaucl1 Valley ex-
press was running at the rate of forty
miles an hour on the long and straight
stretch of track not far from Larchmont
station (about ten miles out of New
York;, there came deafening crash.

a cloud of steam from the cylinder
heads and the scattering of stone bal
last
Jumping and iolting the engine dash
ed along quite distance and the enain-
eer having reversed the lever, the en-
CINE came to a standstill. AS soon as
the train stopped the nature of the ac-
cident was discovered. 1t was found
that the axle of one of the big driving
wheels had broken. Being parted one
of the wheels snappd the piston rod
on one side, and this being unconfined
whirrled about like q gigantic fail
smashing the piston heads and wreck
ing much of the machinery.
Strange to say, the engine did not
leave the track. Had the drivers brok-
en- away from the holdings and gone
under the engine nothing could have
kept it on the rails. When the train
stopped it was on an embanl5ment over
thirty feet high.

Mckinley In Perfect Control of their Con-
vention.
Columbus, March 11.-After the events
in the opening session of the republican
state convention there can be no FUR
Their question as to Ohio's undivided
loyalty to eX- Governor Mckinley in his
contest for the presidential nomination,
Not only was the convention the most
harmonious in the history of the state,
but it was distinctively Mckinley
convention. Every feature that would
tend to promote his candidacy was del
egated to him for arrangement without
regard to other considerations.
Nominations for places on the state
ticket were in every instance made Sec
ondary to the primary object Of the
convention. There was not at any time
during the convention the slightest evil
dence of disaffection or discord. 1t is
true that a number of Foraker and Nc
Ninley men had come to the conven-
ton spelling for fight, but their in
tentions were forestalled by the OPEN
ing speech of Foraker as temporary
chairman.
The committee on resolutions was Sc
lected in Governor McKinley's interest,
and the state central committee was
left largely to his selection. In fact,
everything that can possibly contribute
to his success was delegated to him.
Senator Foraker's opening speech has
had the effect of creating more perfect
harmony and good feeling throughout
the party in Ohio than has existed for
many years.

 ''SUPERBA."
 The theatrical event of the season at the Grand opera house will be the pro- duction of the famous Hanlon Broth CTS "Superba," which MT. Bunnell has secured at an enormous outlay for the Grand opera house the first three days of next week. There will be a matinee on Wednesday, when in consequence of the great expense attending the pro duction, the prices will be the same as charged in the evening There will be positively no free list There will be no other show at the Hyperion during this engagement.
 The Hanlons have gone on year after year despite every Vicissitude that has appeared on the theatrical horoscope, successfully competing for the public's patronage and applause. Each year they have given us new entertainments with old names, and the result has been increased patronage. The Han lon show combines ali the ingredients | of sensation, farce, drama, eXtravagan- ga, vaudeville and spectacle. It Is a l happy conglommeration, and always | draws big houses.
