GOLF.


 Yesterdays Hartford Courant after speaking of the game Saturday here between the Hartford Golf club team and the New Haven Country club team adds: up to this year the Hartford club has been rather unsuccessful in team matches, but this year the team has won every match, though it has played only the teams in the nearer cities.
 "The New Haven Country club has a very pretty club house near the bank of Lake Whitney. It is well appointed and very attractive. There is large general meeting room, a fine dining room and smoking room. Between the last two is large locker for men, The course is nine holes over fine sandy soil that dries readily, and is a little over 2,6O0 yards in length. The club eX- poets to add nine holes more next year.
 Work on the new grounds of the Hartford club is far enough along to be worth seeing by the members and stockholders and the officers of the company are very desirous that stock holders or members make a point of visiting the grounds and seeing what Is being done. The location of the house has been staked out and plan agreed upon by the house committee which will be submitted to a stockholders meeting very soon for their approval. Those who have already looked over the ground have been very much pleas ed with what has been done. The ten his courts are nearly done and six greens are completed. The layout of the course has been finally decided Some of the officers will be on the ground in the afternoon of the 26th and will explain the plans to those of the stockholders and members who may go out"

Patrick j. Haley Has a Badge OF
Honor.
BATTLE OF MANILA BAY
He Was With Dewey When the Spanish
Fleet Was Sunk-A Cruise Around
the World Which Ended In
Glorious Victory

Patrick ]. Haley is the proudest young

His is an honorable pride. Yesterday he

He is a plumber and gas filter by trade

started East on a pleasure trip. When
he was in New York enjoying the sights
he became fascinated with the beauty of
the ships he saw every day in port As
the days passed his desire to become a
seaman increased, untl finally he en-
listed as a private in the navy. He was
soon on the high seas on a voyage to Gil
braltar. The cruise extended to Malta,
Port Said, through the Suez canal on to
Ceylon, Singapore and to Hong Kong

to find that he was actually engaged in
battle.
He remained with Dewey's feet until
the 22d OF last March, when he was re-
lieved and sent home on the Buffalo for

AN INTERESTING DAY
In the Trial of the Great Mining
Case.
SLOPES ON THE $50 LEVEL
The Intersection of the Johnstown and
Rerus Lodges the Subject Of Tes-
timony at the Afternoon
Session.
SLOPES ON THE $50 LEVEL

Yesterday was an interesting day in
the great Pennsylvania mining case.
In the forenoon Mr. Scalon devoted
the time to the cross examination of
Engineer Brown relative to the lines
on cross-section L. map representing
Slopes on the 450 level and the only
point of interest developed was that Is
stope sets were projected on the cross
section that did not exist according to
Mr.. Brown. In the afternoon the in
Hersection of the Johnstown and Rarus
lodges was the subject of attention,
and the principal thing contained in
Mr.. Browns testimony was the state
ment that, while the veins intersected
on the 450 level, he had not found an
Intersection of them on the 500 level.
At the opening of the case yester-
6ay morning L. o. Evans of counsel for
the Boston & Montana company
brought up the petition for an order
allowing the defendant to do some ad-
Sitional development work in the
ground in controversy, but Judge
Clancy refused to hear it or consider
ut at ALL He said he did not think it
would be fair to the other side to
grant the order requested in the mid
die Of the trial If the order were
hgranted, he said, the plaintiff no doubt,
would have similar request to make
Nm a few days, and there never would
be an end to the trial.
Mr. Evans called the courts atten-
stion to the plaintiffs answer filed to
Ahe petition and suggested that the
matter was entitled to hearing. He
also stated that the same petition ap-
billed to another suit between the same
parties aud that the proposed work
s<would in no manner interfere with the
4rial, as no continuance would be ask
led for.
Judge Clancy finally set the matter
Nor hearing next Saturday, but said
l1is mind now was that the petition
would not be granted
After the disposal of this matter Mr..
Brown took the witness stand and re-
sumed giving his evidence in the main
case under the >cross-questioning of
Mr.. Scallon.
Mr.. Browns testimony related to the
workings in the Johnstown vein on the
$50 level. He was piled with a long
series of questions concerning the ac-
tual work done on the vein at the part
shown in cross section IL and Slope
sets represented in the map.
state what work has been done on
the line of cross section IL" north and
south of the Rarus' south side line"
SAID Mr.. Scallon.
The witness examined the big map
and the map of cross section Il" and
explained where the openings and I'M
broken ground were in the locality
named. He took measurements and
compared the maps, and in his testi-
mony it was brought out that q stope

SUSPICION ATTACHES TO GIFT.
New York Merchant Discovered Bar to
an Evasion of Business Ethics.

New York Merchant Discovered Bar to
an Evasion of Business Ethics.
From the New York Sun.
1t was not one of the mammoth
stores, but one of a much older type,
in which the proprietor does not dis
dain to stroll among the counters and
keep an eye on the lordly foorwalkers
and perhaps give just the finishing
touch to a sale when some old Gus
toner is bargaining. 1t was an old
customer to whom this incident hap
pened.
She had browsed from counter to
counter and had finally settled down
on just the shirt waist that would suit
her for some special need. 1t was just
the right goods; there was not another
pattern in the whole assortment that
could compare with it. She had asked
the girl if it would wash, but she
knew it would even without the formal
ity of the question.
Everything suited but the price. In
her judgment, $1.5O was too much to
pay and she tried to argue the girl
down to a more satisfactory figure.
This was out of the girls power, for
she could do nothing but fall back on
the prominently displayed policy of
the house, "One price" Even the pro-
prietor, when he came on the scene,
was unwilling to deviate from that rule.
eApldlHtu all tndl he HdQ 10 eN-
plain and gave attention to all that
the barganer had to say on her side
of the affair. Finally he clinched his
position by saying that rather than
disappoint a valued patron of anything
she had set her heart on, although he
would not violate his rule of never de-
waiting from his fixed price, he would
be pleased to offer the shirt waist to
the customer with his compliments.
AS an abstract proposition the Gus
toner might have comprehended the
attitude of the merchant toward his
own business policy, but this was diff
ferent, it was shopping, and between
shirt waists and abstract ethics there
is a great gulf fixed.
On hearing this offer the customer
turned back to the counter and gave
the shirt waist another and even more
critical inspection. Every seam was
carefully scanned. even the stuff itself
was held up to the light for the dis
closure of unsupported defects.
Yes, ma'am," repeated the prOprie-
tor. Il cannot break through the rule
of my house and cut the price below
$3.50. but rather than disappoint you
l will give you the waist
Why" said the suspicious custom
er, what's the matter with it?"

RUSSIA ABREAST OF the TIMES.
Frauds in the Construction of the ST.
berian Railway Discovered


berian Railway Discovered.
1t is not known that those in charge
| of the construction of the Siberian rail-
| way were ever under the tuteIage of
| the members of the American Credit
Mobilier, but, judging by reports that
come from that region, they would have
| been apt pupils. They certainly have a
trick or two that would put their Am
| erican compatriots to the blush.
| 1t appears that the different works
| have been executed in manner that
shows very little conscience. Every
thing, or nearly everything, will have
to be done over again before the au-
thorities can think of throwing this
| line open to regular working. In very
| many places the road gives way on
| the passage of a train a little heavier
| than usual or travelling at a speed of
more than twenty miles an hour, and
accidents more or less grave are con-
| tinually happening. More than usual
| courage is demanded of anyone under
| taking journey on this railway. This
construction la ruse has already
swallowed up hundreds of millions of
rubles, or, to speak more truthfully,
the constructors and not the construc-
ton have absorbed the millions. Peo-
pie are beginning to ask how it will fin
ish. There is still more. Several ST.
berian journals, which are, moreover,
closely controlled by the local censors,
publish the following statements: For
several months the navy contractors
have not been paid in cash despite the
terms of their contracts. The engineers
in charge, who represent the govern
| ment, declared that they had no more
| money and the contractors must be sat
isfied with bonds, which the Siberian
and Chinese banks have for some dis
counted at S1a per cent Frequently
these bonds were not paid on falling
fuse to act any longer as Intermediates
between the government engineers and
the contractors. 1t was only when one
of these engineers, Prince -. who had
made fortune, undertook to be re-
sponsible to the banks, that they they
resumed their functions of discount
brokers. But the princes guarantee is
somewhat costly, seeing that he claims
a little fee of Is per cent The con-
tractors are furious. but they find
themselves helpless, owing to the clause
inserted in all the contracts to the eff
fest that disputes between the engi-
neers and the constructors of the line
have to be settled in ST. Petersburg.
To lodge complaint 5000 miles from
the spot where the circumstances have
occurred is at least inconVenient and
would entail years delay. The posi-
ton of the unfortunate navvies them
selves can be imagined from the treat
ment of the contractors Their wages
are paid very irregularly and always
with deductions. Badly fed and badly
lodged, it is not surprising if they give
only half a heart to the work"

to Is months in the penitentiary. He
served his time at Deer Lodge and at
the expiration of his sentence he re-
turned to Butte and very short while
afterward was caught burglariZing the
residence of Ex-Governor Richards. and
with two other fellows--John Curley
and John Poole-was arrested and an
information filed against the three on
April "a, 1894, for burglary. Connors
gave his name as Conway and on May
3 he exonerated those who were arrest
ed with him and entered his own plea
of guilty and was again sent up for
three years. At the end Of his second
term in the penitentiary he again came
back to Butte, but the town was made
too warm for him and he left. The next
