MUGWUMP ABATEMENT.
George Fred Williams Will Support Free
 Silver Democrat.

Boston, July 2-In an interview to- day Hon. George Fred Williams, one of the delegates-a to the national democratic convention, made some in- teresting and forcible declarations on the political situation which cannot fail to attract national attention. Briefly speaking MT. Williams said that his political influence will be thrown against a bolt from the Chicago con- vention if a silver platform is adopted.
 As against Hannaism, which, he de-, clares, represents the organized band of bloodsuckers of the country; Hobart ism, synonymous with organized capi- tai and illegal combinations against la Dor, Mr. Williams says, he is willing to take his chances with free silver coinage The tariff, he declared will cut only a small figure in the campaign. Regarding the declaration attributed to him in an interview by a New York paper that more than one-half of the democrats of Massachusetts favor free silver MT. Williams reiterated his statement this morning.
 ''The time has come" he said, for a great popular uprising. I am in it. I am taking this step of supporting sil- yer democrat; I realize I am doomed politically, in Massachusetts, and that I shall never be forgiven by men who claim to be democrats. I realize also that these men can punish me socially and financially, but I invite the perse- cution with conscientious feeling that I am doing right by voicing the senti- ments of an outraged public"

REy. DR. aAnnAnNn RESIGNS.
Leaves Church Because He Cannot Get His
 Salary.

Brooklyn, July 2.-The Trinity Bap- tist church on Greene avenue is voice. less and the flock without a shepherd. Rev. Dr. Henry M. Gallaher, the pas tor, has resigned.
 Dr. Gallaher is not a rich man, and he depends upon his clerical work for a livelihood. Last Sunday night he told the congregation that he was through with the church. He had waited for his salary for months, and his stock of patience was about run out. The next day he started for his country home in Essex, Conn. He had received no salary in several months.
 Dr. Gallaher is one of the best known clergymen in Brooklyn, and a popular after dinner speaker. He was also a member of the Union League club and frequently spoke at the club S demonstrations.
 For several years he was pastor of the Hanson Place Baptist church and he is an ex-pastor of Calvary Baptist church, New Haven. He succeeded Rev. Clifford Nelson in the pastorate of the Trinity Baptist church about four years ago.

 The master plumber resented the re-
 mark with more force than elegance,
 and in answer was dealt stunning blow on the nose. This was followed by
 a second and third. By this time there was much excitement men and
 women running hither and thither in
 quest of policeman.
 Patrolman Donnelly arrived in time to see Golden's form disappear around
 the corner. Some one cried out that a small child had been killed. There was

|HAYESTEAM ATSAVIN ROCK
IT WAs DRIYEN FRO1T o. 4. D0R-
 MANS NEH BUILDING.

The Owner Was Selling Quantity of Oats and Left His Horse Only Few Minutes
 The Police Were yigilant-Team Cap tured Before 10 O'clock.
 Edwin A. Hayes left his team in front of o. A. Dorman's new building on Chapel street about 4:30 o'clock yes terday afternoon while he went to transact business with John N. Leon
 ard, who is building the new structure. It did not require long time to com
 plete the transaction, but short as was the time occupied for the transaction of
 the business with MT. Leonard it was long enough for man to drive off with Hayes team.
 He immediately notified the police at headquarters, who sent out word to all
 the precincts and to the adjacent towns. A description of the horse and wagon was sent with the word that they had been taken.
 | As 1t is a favorite scheme for per- sons to drive off with other peoples teams to Savin Rock and to drive them back to the city and abandon them late | in the evening, the owner of the team | went to West Haven in quest of the
 missing horse and wagon.
 About S:30 o'clock word came from West Haven that the wagon and horse had been recovered and the driver had
 been taken into custody. Detectives | Toronto and Tighe took the car imme-
 diately to Savin Rock but found that
 the horse taken was not MT. Hayes
 as both he and Mir. Crittenden were
 there to identify the team.
 At 10 o'clock, almost as soon as Of | ficer Tighe had reported back to the central office. another message came
 from West Haven saying that this time there was no mistake. The horse
 had been recovered and had been iden- tified by it's owner.
 l The capture was made by Officer | Clinton of the West shore police. l Detective Toronto, who had heard
 that the team had been driven to the Rock and who had acted upon the
 knowledge and gone to the Rock, was | just getting off the car when he saw a
 crowd in the grove. A bystander vol unteered the information that d man
 had been arrested for having stolen a 1 horse and carriage. When ne detec-
 tive reached the crowd he saw that the I West Haven authorities had the man
 and also the team. Both were brought
 to the city.
 At the police station the fellow said
 that his name was John J. Hart and that he lived on Washington street.
 Messrs. Hayes and Crittenden, who
 were at the Rock at the time the horse
 was recovered, identified 1t. The team
 was driven home by MT. Hayes.

 Gentry in Bad Form.


 Chicago, July 2.-The match race be- tween John R. Gentry, 2:031a, and Joe Patchen, 2:04, at Washington Park to- day proved to be something of fizzle Patchen drew the pole for the first heat and simply romped away from Gentry. It might have been close race to the wire had Andrews been able to hold Gentry on his feet, but at the eighth pole he broke and Curry simply cam tered in, the easiest of winners. Gen. try was greatly distressed after the heat and when it came to scoring with the big black fellow soon after 1t was plainly Patchen's day.
 The latter had neck the better of it when the word was given for the second heat and he never relinquished the lead, going out a quarter and kill ing off the Gentry horse, who broke at the eighth pole and allowed Patchen to romp in again. The crowd was disap- pointed at the comparative walk-over and was also silent when the, black horse was guided under the fstre by Curry. Gentry was out of fix and was so distressed at the finish he could scarcely move. The summary: Pacing match for s3000, 50 and 40 per cent, ? in 3. Joe Patchen c, Curry) l, 1; John R. Gentry (W. J.

 eon Plan of Curtailment,

on Plan of Curtailment.
 Boston, July 1.-The report that there was to be a meeting of the Arkwright club to-day to further consider the matter of curtailing production was er- roneous The matter of an agreement for the mills to sign, requiring sigma lures of mills representing 40O0, ,0O0 spindles to make it operative, was left in the hands of committee. This committee had meeting to-day, but 1t is not ready to report, as the full number of spindles required have not as yet been secured, but 1t Is expected that the required number will be re- ceived by, tomorrow.
 Yesterday five of the largest Fall River mills refused to sign unless the Arnold Print and the Fall River Iron Works companies signed the agree ment, but now all the Fall River mills have agreed to close except the iron works (260,0Oo spindles) and one other mill with 44,53O spindles, so that out of 2,S33, 691 spindles in Fall River, 2,529, ,161 have signed the agreement. It does not seem to be generally known that two of the four mills of the Arnold Print works have been closed down entirely for over a year, and that it will probably be two months before they will start up, and that the other two mills. are running on reduced time.

Entered the House of Robert Russell
 While Family Was Absent.
 Burglars entered the residence of Robert Russell of 26 Townsend avenue Wednesday afternoon during the tenn porary absence of the family and se- cured $50 in money and about $100 worth of jewelry and silverware.
 Mrs Russell was calling on a neigh- bor when the robbery was committed and as the door was open when she re- turned it is thought the thief watched her when she hid the key where her husband, who is a conductor on the Consolidated railroad, could find it if he returned before she did. The key was in the door when Mrs. Russell re. turned.
 A neighbours child saw the robber en- ter the house, but supposed all the time that Mrs Russell was at home.
 About week ago one of this same species of robbers entered the home of Mrs. Winters in the full light of day, and took s5 in cash and a gold watch.
