Yale Handicapped, but Hopeful,

Perhaps tho greatest handicap to the
crew which Yale is to send to Henley Is
the fact that 1t has no regular COACH Tho
able and affable Robert J. (Bob) Cook
will spare it all the time he can take from
his business, but that will not be great
deal. Captain Treadway Is obliged to al
ternate his rowing with coaching, and
that is big undertaking, and so the crew,
unlike the crews of Harvard, Pennsylva-
mia, Columbia or Cornell, must worry
along and do tho best 1t can without q
coach.
The English crews, selected the first of
March, have had oil tho advantages of reg
ular coaching and practice on their own
wator, and yet Yale's material is so good
that Americans have no fenr of the result,
despite tho difficulties that beset the dis.

One Girl Kills Another.

Elgin, ILL.,, April 14,-Mary Linnett of
43 North Campbell avenue, Chicago,
shot and instantly killed Elizabeth
Trowbridge, a prominent young wo-
man of this city, and then killed her
self last evening. The double tragedy
occurred in South State street at about
s o'clock. The murderer was a former
patient at the insane asylum, and was
discharged as cured in December Miss
was her attendant, and she
conceived a great affection for her,
She came here yesterday morning to
induce Miss Trowbridge to return to
Chicago to live with her
Miss Trowbridge could not be in
duced to do this, and the girl deter
mined to kill Miss Trowbridge and her
self rather than be separated from her.
Miss Linnett was only eighteen years
old, and about two years ago tried
to kill a young woman friend in Chi
cago. Miss Trowbridge was twenty
five years old, a niece of Judge David
of this city, and a member
of one of the most prominent families
here. The two girls, accompanied by
Alice Trowbridge, sister of the muir
dered girl, were going to the depot
when the tragedy occurred.

Noted Mute Dead.

Newport. r. l., April 14.-Oliver Cas-
well, sixty years old, probably the most
noted blind and deaf mute in this coun-
try, except the widely known Laura
Bridgeman, died at his home in James
town last night. He had been afflicted
since he was two years old. At the age
of fourteen he attracted the attention
of DR.. Samuel S. Howe, husband of
Julia Ward Howe, who, together with
Laura Bridgeman, taught him to read
and converse. He was a bright scholar
and of a practical mind. He was great
ly interested in prominent men, and
some years since was invited by Dom
Pedro to visit him on the occasion of
the latter's visit to Newport Since
he left school he had lived at home
with his mother and assisted in the
household affairs. He kept up his read
ing and had a remarkable memory. He
was able to recognize persons after
shaking hands, though not having met
them in years. He was of genial and
social disposition. Three brothers sur
vive him, one being John HI. Caswell of
Caswell, Massey & Co., New York.

nr. Fitch,s Sndden Death.

DR. Clarence L. Fitch, who died sud-
denly at 10 o'clock Tuesday night at
his home, 1853 Wooster street, of heart
disease, had visited a number of his
patients during the afternoon and eve
ing, and complained to his wife of feel
ing unusually fatigued.
Shortly before 10 o'clock, while pre-
pairing to retire for the night he was
suddenly attacked by sharp pains about
the heart, and sinking into a chair ex
pired before medical aid could be Sc
cured. After an investigation Medical
Examiner White pronounced the cause
of death heart disease.
DIR. Fitch was thirty eight years old
very popular, and one of the most pro-
missing physicians in the County Medi-
cal society.
His health failed two years ago, and
for time he was forced to give ur
practice. A rest. however, seemingly
restored him, and for a year past his
friends believed his physical condition
to be excellent.

Anticipated strong's Veto,

New York, April 1.-THE Evening
Sun says:
News of Mayor Strong's veto mes
sage on the Greater New York bill had
been so thoroughly discounted that the
message itself caused little comment
to-day The politicians had expected
the message and began preparing for it
a week ago.
Those who attended the public hear
ings on the bill remarked to-day the
striking similarity between the argu-
ments advanced by the mayor and
those used by Corporation Counsel
Scott in his speech against the meas
ure. In fact, the mayor states as his
reasons for not accepting the bill the
very things Mr.. Scott presented in his
speech, and he suggests the same plan
of consolidation favored by the corpor-
alton counsel.
The mayor says he is in favor of con-
solidation and that it is bound to come
some time, but he cannot accept the
Lexow bill because the commission to
be appointed could not prepare a char
ter in the time allotted and any way
charter ought to precede not follow,
consolidation. He is in favor of APP
pointing a commission to draft q char
ter and then have consolidation car
ried through by the legislature with
out submitting the plan to a vote of
the people.
The letter of the mayor is fair syn
opsis of the speech of Mr.. Scott in OPP
position to the bill at the public hear
ing.
The question of repassing the bill over
the vetoes of the two mayors is still
unsettled. 1t can pass the senate, but
it's fate in the assembly is in the bal
ance and the Tammany members hold
the scales. 1t is understood that no
attempt will be made to repass the bill
until tomorrow.

A HEATY TOTE CAST.
For and Against Waiting Room at tn


For and Against Waiting Room at the
Green.
Owing to the very large vote deposit
ed yesterday at the stores of F. NJ
Brown & Co. for and against waiting
room on the green, the city will be ask
ed to loan another ballot box.
Fully three thousand votes were cast
yesterday, mostly by ladies, and as
nearly as can be Judged the sentiment
is about even.
The voting was not confined to dwell
ers in New Haven, either, for there
We're ballots cast by ladies from Morris
Cove, West Haven and other points.
However, the name and address are
written on every ballot, so that it will
be an easy matter to determine just
who is voting.
The men are doing their share of the
voting, and it appears that they are
voting the very opposite of the ladies.
The firm furnishes ballots, and all
who wish some to distribute may OBJ
tain them for the asking.
