Poli's Wonderland Theater.

A large audience was delighted at the Wonderland last evening. Manager Poli gave a gem of a show, a feature of which was Captain Impudence," the comedy played by Edwin Milton Royle and his clever wife, Seline Better Royle, assisted by capital company. Clean and bright, it has amusing situa- tions galore, has plot and is daintily set with pretty staging and beautiful costumes.
 Charles Grapewin and Miss Annie Chance made hit in sketch that dis plays the German comedy, and MT. Grapewin. Miss Chances fine voice and the neat dancing of both and MT. Eldridge's are roaring success. Everybody was delighted with the fine medleys of a popular character beau- tifully harmonized. To cap the climax Dave Meters punched Yankee Doodle out of the bag in way that drove the fistiamio coterie and admirers of the manly art frantic with envy.
 Others in the bill were the Fields, German team; John and Hrry Dillon, parodists; Ali and Bani, and the cleo troscope war views.
 The New Haven hospital views will not be shown until Thursday night. when the benefit will be given for the soldiers.
 Prices, 10 and 20 cents: ladeis in the afternoon, 10 cents. Bikes checked free.

A MERIDEN BICYCLIST.
His Arm Badly Broken-Pitched Down

His Arm Badly Broken-Pitched Down
 an Embankmen.
 Wilbur F. Hunt, foreman at Rogers, Smith & Co.'s factory met with a ser ious accident on the bicycle path Sat urday The Meriden Journal says: MT. Hunt had reached Shady Corner at North Haven and was just turning around bend in the road when two bicyclists came scorching along in an opposite direction. Seeing MT. Hunt the bicyclists became confused and broke, one going to the right of the path the other to the left.
 ITO avoid the collision, which seemed imminent, MT. Hunt took the desper- ate chance of plunging down the bank. On striking the gully at the bottom of the bank he was pitched from his wheel and fell heavily to the ground, his right arm being doubled under him. The scorchers proceeded on their way. MT. Hunt proceeded at once to New Haven, where Dr. Sweet dressed his injuries. It was found that his arm had been broken in three places, and it will probably be some months before 1t will have thoroughly healed. Had the bicyclists followed the rules of the road and both kept toward the right of the path, the accident would have been avoided

MORE SICK SOLDIERS MAY COME
To Take the Place of Those Why Re- cover and Leave New Haven Hos-

To Take the Place of Those Why Re-
 cover and Leave New Haven Hos-
 pital.
 Owing to the large number of visi- tors to see the sick soldiers at the New Haven hospital Sunday afternoon and the excitement attendant on the large crowd many of the sick men were somewhat tired and were not quite so well yesterday. The hospital authori- ties have therefore decided not to allow so many visitors again until the sol diers become stronger and to guard against undue excitement. Some of the men are already so nearly recover ed that they desire furloughs in order that they may visit their friends. Su- perintendent Starkweather at the hos pital has, however, no authority to is sue furloughs and many of the men being regulars are obliged to abide strictly by the army regulations. No tice of the requests for furloughs has therefore been sent to General Joe Wheeler in command of Camp Wikoff, but no reply had been received from him last night It is thought that when some of the soldiers now at the hospital leave others will be brought over from Montauk Point.
 The Grace hospital authorities have sent word to Camp Wikoff that some sick soldiers could be accommodated there. They were told that if it was decided to send any sick men they would be notified by telegraph when the patients left the camp. No further word has been received concerning the offer of Grace hospital.

GRAND CIRCUIT RACES.
Warm Heats and Large Attendance
 at Readville.

Readville, Mass, Aug. 29,-The grand circuit opened to-day at the Readville track under the most favorable condi- tions, good weather, warm heats and a large attendance. Two races were completed and three heats ran off in another before the days sport finished. All the events were fought out vigor- ously, number of them being won by the narrowest kind of margin.
 The interest of the day centered in the 2:11 trot and with a big purse every heat was fight for a finish. Bingen was the favorite and while he took the second heat in the fastest time of the day, 2:09A, which was also a new mark for him, Tommy Britton succeeded in beating him out by talk ing the other three heats. Britton, however, was hard pressed in every one, Georgianna being right at his nose in the third heat and Han McGregor almost catching him in the fourth. Alcidia showed up we'll in the second heat, but had no show in the others.
 The youngsters of the 2:30 class had a. lively time in their first heat, Charley Herr, young colt of Alfred S., getting the heat in close finish. He dropped the rest to Laurels, but won the third iwth ease.
 The three heats that were run off in the 2:20 pace were also exciting, the favorite, Flirt, being almost distanced in the first heat, but took the next two in a rattling finish.
 Star Pointer, 159A, who has been on the track since last Wednesday was out this morning and made number of fast miles.
 Albatros, another guideless wonder, went a half mile in 1:06A. Summary: Three -year-olds = 2:30 Class - Purse

WAR SPEECHES
IN THE SENATE!
Gen. Lee Says Havana Would Sur
render After a Short Fight.
SPAIN GETTING READY FOR WAR.

Washington, April l4.-The galleries
in the senate are packed and thousands
were turned away. Hale (Malne) pre-
sented q memorial from the National
civic club OF Brooklyn, calling attention
10 the necessity, In the event OF war with
Spain, Of repeating some Of the present
navigation laws which prevent our mer-
chant vessels from sailing under for
eign flag.
A message was received from the house
Transmitting the Cuban resolution passed
by the house.
By unanimous consent the resolution
Of yesterday reported by the foreign rela-
tlons elmmittee was laid before the SEN
ate.
Turner (Washington) began a speech,
In which he sharply criticised the nd.
ministration for Its "vacillating and ir-
resolute, cowardly and pusilanimous pol
ICY"
Turner declared, with bitter sarcasm,
that with such diplomatic agents repre-
senting the United States the Madrid
government might eventually. for suit
able indemnity. absOlve this country for
blocking the harbor OF Havana with the
shattered hull Of the Maine. The fash
ing sword OF the United States must be
drawn for Cuban Independence and be
welded by an arm stronger than ever.
II should never be lowered until Spain is
driven from the western hemisphere.
Hoar followed Turner. He thought the
present no time for impassloned rhetoric
and manifestations OF approval OF war
sentiment. He felt like entering upon
the Cuban question with the seriousness
with which he would attend church. II
we are going TO enter upon course Of
action In Cuba IL should be done az an
act Of justice and not revenge. Mr.. Hoar
said Turner, who represented only half a
state. was making the president, who
represents forty-Ave states, the subject Of
the same objurgstlons that we're inflicted
upon Washington. He predicted that
Mehlnley's tame would not suner.
Hoar said that he believed that the
Maine explosion was meditated act
Of which the Spanish officials wer,
guilty.
The Spanish government should b,
held responsible. Yet to acquit Blanco
as General Lee had done. would be 10 ac
quit Spain Of the direct agency as he wa
the responsible representative Of Spain
II necessary he thought the Maine affsll
enough to justify war. Still he though
honorable reparation might possibly b
secured without war. He would vote fol
house resolution and thought Its adop
tion would lead TO war, but II would b
an honorable and justihable war.
Turpie (Ind.) followed Hoar with I
speech for the recognition Of the Cubar
republic.

CONSUL LRE,s rEsrImoNY.

ne IL Sure That the Maine Was Blown Up
by Spanish Onicers.
Washington, April IA The testimony
taken before the senate committee Of
foreign relations in connection with the
Investigation into the relations between
the United States and Cuba was made
public to-day. Il constitutes q book Of
$50 pages.
The statement OF greatest current in
terest is that OF Consul General Lee.
Lee said he was informed that the Span
lsrds had placed two rows Of torpedoes
Just at the mouth OF Havana harbOr by
Moro castle within the past two months,
and the switch board Is In the castle.
He said. however. he had no information
Of the placing Of any torpedoes before the
Maine was destroyed.
He thought the Maine letter was a cor.
rect copy OF a genuine letter from Wey
Ter. He knew OF a telegram addressed 10
Bya Canela, noted Spanish woman, an
admirer Of Weyler. and to Senior Guz
man. as follows: "Grave circumstances
cause me TO ask you TO destroy last letter
Of February l2."
Lee said: II cabled the state depart
ment a few days after the board assem-
bled that Il was almost certain that the
explosion was from the exterior. l al
ways had an idea that the Maine was
blown up by officers who had charge Of
the mines and electrical wires and tor
pedoes In an arsenal there and who
thoroughly understood their business.
II do not think BlancO, the present
captain general Of Cuba, had anything
to do with 1t. went right down to the
palace and asked for General Blanco. HG
came In crying"
Lee said he had seen q copy OF tele-
gram from Admiral MAnterola dated
Havana, prior 10 the explosion Of the
Maine to the Spanish commission In
London. asking the commission TO "hur
ry up the electrical cables"
After an investigation Lee satisfied
himself that the electric lights did moi
90 out at the time OF the explosion.
General Lee said: 81 have never beer
certain that submarine explosive wa
placed there prior to the entrance Of the
Maine into the harbor. II might have
been done afterwards"
Lee said that the Spanish population
Is not especially hostile towards the
United States. The insurgents would pa,
no attention TO srmistice.
Suppose Havana were blockaded, said
Senator Mills, 80 that no provisions
could 90 In, would the people there hay,
any way 70 get anyY
"None whatever" responded Lee. "Th'
town would surrender In q short while.
