SOFT COAL CARRYING RATES.

New London, Nov, S0.-It is given out
that coastwise vessels are carrying soft
coal to-day cheaper than ever before
in the history of the coal carrying
trade The average price collected by
ship owners for carrying soft coal from
Newport News or Philadelphia to this
city and the places UP the Thames
river is fifty-fve cents, and not infre-
quently the contract is signed for fifty
cents. A Norwich shipper, who has
from six to a dozen schooners charter
ed the year round for traffic between
Newport News and Allyn's Point, said
tonight that he found no difficulty in
getting his supply from one point to the
ether at the rate of fifty cents a ton.
He added that he thought that the
captains made money at that price
Seven years ago." he said, vessel
owners were all complaining of small
profits and frequent losses, when they
were getting seventy cents a ton. Ii
they were losing money then they sure
ly could not afford to carry coal for
fifty cents now. On that account be-
leve there is still money in the coal
carrying business for sailing vessels. :"

Married a Young Man and Left Him
All Her Property.
Middletown, Nov. 30.-An interesting
will contest is promised growing out
of the recent death of Mrs. Arthur
Clark of Deep River, who left to her
husband all of her property, valued at
$4,000. The property consists of real
estate in Guilford, railroad stock, etc
Mr.. Clark was formerly driver of a
carriage, in the employ of George P.
Rolf in Guilford. Mrs. Clark was sixty
and he was twenty-seven years of age
when they were married in Guilford in
December, 1895. Mrs. Clark died in Oc-
tober last. She was the widow of Har-
vey w. Spencer of Guilford, treasurer
of the Guilford Savings bank, and the
widow married Clark within six months
after her husbands death. Her will

ms in Guilford and New Haven will
contest the will. Clark halls from
Haddam. 1t is said that she gave him
$4,000 on their wedding day. The case
will be stubbornly contested. Clark is
spoken of as a young man of good re-
pute, quiet and reticent about his af-
fairs. A short time after the marriage
he bought a nice place in Deep River
and removed there with his wife. Mrs.
Clark was noted, while living with Mr.
Spencer, as a very economical woman,
but after marrying she spent money
freely.
Lawyer Hazleton Cook of Clinton is

YALE MAY MEET HARVARD
UNDERGRADUATES VOTE TO RENEW
ATHLETIC RELATIONS.

Friendly Feeling Felt for Harvard-Ath-
letio Committee Can Now Go Ahead with
Negotiations-Chamb Concert This
Evening.
A mass meeting of the students of
Yale university was held at GAS o'clock
last evening to enable the undergrad
yates to express directly their goodwill
toward Harvard and their opinion in
regard to the renewal of athletic rela-
tons with her. The meeting was called
to order by A. B. Kerr '97,
The athletic contests between Yale
and Harvard have always been consid-
cred by both universities as of superior
Importance to any other contests. I'm
happily these relations We're severed
early in S95. Ever since that time the
graduates of both colleges have held
several conferences, hoping to patch up
differences and restore the old rela-
lions between the universities. The
feeling was too strong, however, to all
low any such hasty measures and time
has been alone able to accomplish what
the combined efforts of many men of
note and ability failed to do.
The meeting was the result of COM
muntcations between the athletic COM
mittees of Yale and Harvard. The
Yale athletic committee desired to learn
the feeling of the undergraduates so as
to enable the committee to act authori-
tatively. Their support and approba-
ton was clearly shown in that the vote
to resume athletic relations was unani-
nous. SO much being accomplished it
is hoped that the final and necessary
steps will be soon taken, the red tape
spun, and the crimson and blue will be
seen waving side by side friendly but
true to themselves on river or track or
wherever they meet for trials of supe-
riority

SUTRO WILL NOT SIGN,
The Mayor Advised That the
Hall o. Justice Contract
Is Illegal.
Taylor Rogers US That the Sup.r-
viSors Have Not Complied With
the Statutes.

Taylor Rogers, as attorney for Mayor
Sutro, has rendered an opinion that the
entire proceedings under which the con-
tract for the Hall of Justice was let were
illegal. AS consequence the Mayor will
probably refuse TO sign the contract with
Bateman Bros, the successful bidders,
which is now in his hands, and there are
prospects of a legal taEgle before the con-
struction of the building can be begun.
A committee of contractors who expect
to receive sub-contracts from Bate man
Bros. were in conference with the Mayor
yesterday and Mr.. Sutro told them that he
would have to be better satisfied with the
legality of the contract than he is at pres
emit before he will sign.
The contract was originally turned over
to Mr.. Rogers when first presented to the
Mayor for inspection as the secretary OF
the Office. he found many flaws that
were formulated and presented to the
Citys chief executive. He was then asked
to put the matter into the form of legal
opinion and the result was presented to
Mr.. Sutro yesterday.
Mr.. Rogers rests his chief objection on
the section of the statutes which says that
when any such public work is contem-
plated and tax levied for it there must
be public need for the improvement.
He said that he had failed TO find any
where in the proceedings of the Board OF
Supervisors declaration that the pro-
posed building was public need.
In his opinion there Is no pubic need,
the CITY Hall being amply large to con-
tain ell of the departments intended for
the Hall of Justice. The tax levy which
raised the money is declared by Mr.. Rog.
ers to be illegal for this reason, and also
for the reason that the Morgue building,
for which part of the money is to be
used, was not mentioned in the levy.
The Mayor is declared to be justified in
refusing to sign the contract. The matter
will be reported at the next meeting oil
the Supervisors and some action taken on
tn 10 Mayors stand
