NO FOU URTH OF JULY P1R4DE.
Dispensed With Because Organizations
 Will Not March.

I
 | The general committee in charge of | the Fourth of July celebration voted
 at last nights meeting to have no pa
 rade on the Fourth because no one could
 be found who cared to parade except
 the grand marshal Major Blakeslee, his
 aides and the machine gun battery Capt 1 McCabc, chairman of the parade com
 mittee, reported that he had received a communication from the machine gun 1 battery stating that that organization would parade if $6 was appropriated for | the line of horses to draw the guns The
 committee voted to appropriate the re-
 quired amount, but later when it was learned that no societies or lodges would parade this vote was rescnded.
 Chairman Hut of the fireworks com-
 mittee recommended that grand stand
 be erected on the old green to be occu-
 pied while the fireworks display is go-
 ing on, by the members of the general committee and members of the city government. He suggested that tickets
 for seats on the grand stand be sent to the members of the committee and
 members of the city government He moved that a stand be erected at a cost not to exceed $40. William Gay moved to amend that stand be erected for $50 to seat as many persons as possible H.
 w. JaQuet thought there was no reason why a stand should be built. He said that last year he was a member of the general committee and could not get seat on the grand stand because he did not have q ticket. He said that the su- perntendent of police was on the grand stand with his family and friends and that when anyone whom he knew came along he would instruct the ticket taker to let them come up on the stand. MT. Jaquet thought it was foolish to erect grand stand for few people like that
 MT. Ross said that he didn't want to see few favored by having a grand stand for a few to sit on while thou sands of citizens had to stand up. He said that grand stand would obstruct the view of the crowd and said: Let's have no stand. Give everyone chance. The city officials and the members of this committee need a stand no more than anyone else I think that a com mandment which will soon be printed in the bible is Thou shalt not rubber nor stretch thy neek, and so let us not have grand stand erected to obstruct the view of citizens"
 Alderman Unger said that he did not believe that the members of the city government wanted grand stand built for them to sit on and that they were willing to stand up with the rest of the people. A vote was then taken and it was decided by vote of 21 to 9 to have grand stand.
 Colonel Osborn, chairman of the com mittee, stated that he expected to leave the city for a short time and suggested that it would be well to appoint vice chairman to preside over meetings Of the committee in his absence Colonel Sill was chosen vice chairman The committee then adjourned until July 12. 1

4 SUSPECTED PICKPOCKET.
One Believed to be n Member of Gang
 Arrested by Officer Dunlap.

Lawrence Casey, man about fifty years of age, who says he comes from Boston, was arrested last night at the corner of Church and George streets by
 Patrolman Dunlap on suspicion of being pickpocket, and was locked up at po-
 lice headquarters on the charge of being
 "suspicious person." About 8 o'clock
 man named Henry Marsh hurried to
 Patrolman P. T. Hayes, who is station
 ed nights at the corner of Church and
 Chapel streets, and told him that he
 had just seen a man, whom he pointed
 out, pick woman's pocket on Chapel
 street, near Temple. Hayes could not
 leave his post of duty on the corner, but,
 requesting Marsh to keep an eye on the
 pickpocket, he telephoned to police
 headquarters and asked to have an off cer in citizens clothing sent to the cor
 ner.
 Patrolman Dunlap was detailed on the
 job and at once went to the corner or Church and Chapel streets. Marsh had followed the suspected pickpocket down
 Church street, and Dunlap, after get
 ting @ tip from Hayes, followed down
 the street He overlook Marsh, who pointed out to him the suspected man.
 Dunlap trailed him to the Union depot, where he saw the fellow shake hands with two younger men and engage them in conversation. Dunlap had spoken to Patrolman Curran at the depot and the trio, seeing the policeman watching them, became suspicious and separated. Dunlap then followed the man whom he was shadowing to the corner of Church and George streets, where he placed him under arrest Dunlap had gone but short distance with his prisoner when he saw the man drop roll of bills to the pavement.
 Dunlap stopped and picked up the bills and found that the roll contained $29. The prisoner denied dropping them but finally took the bills and pre- tended to stick them in his pocket. He kept his hand inside his shirt, however, ana Dunlap noticed another bill drop. Picking it up he found that it was a S1 bill At the police station the pris- oner gave his name as Laurence Casey. When he was searched the roll of bills, $29, which he had dropped and Dunlap had picked up and handed to him, was found secreted under his arm. It is thought by the police that the man ar rested and the two with whom he talked at the depot compose gang of pick pockets who came to New Haven to work the commencement crowds. It was ascertained that the two at the de- | pot, both of whom were younger men | than the one arrested, had tickets from | New York to Providence with stop | over at New Haven. The two left or | the 9:10 train for New York last night, | and it is thought that they may come l back to-day to work the boat race crowds.

FIRE IN MONTOVESE,
IL. K. Hemingway & Compnny's Barns
 Turned Last Night.

Early last evening the barn of L. R. Hemingway & Go. in Montowese was totally destroyed by fire, the loss being about $S,000 The barn was located about one mile below George H. Coopers s store and near the junction of the Mid dletown road and Quinnipiac avenue The fire started shortly before o'clock and as the building was located outside the city limits the fire department could not respond. A bucket brigade was at work soon after the fire started, but could make no headway against the flames in the wooden structure The barn and contiguous sheds and out buildings were burned to the ground. The fire is thought to have been caused by an employe dropping a lighted match on the floor over some hay. The horses and other live stock were rescued. In the barn were about seventy tons of hay, which is now worth nearly $30 per ton, and this was entirely consumed by the flames. The loss Is partially covered by insurance.

In 1856 a large number Of people
had become restless under. and dissat-

commercial politicians who had con-
trolled party organizations. and con-
cluded to take matters into their own

resenting a great party, took that par

stock markets, and put it once more
on the high plane Of public welfare.
With their eyes on the future, with the
voices OF their ancestors and the pa
triots of &c in their ears. and with the
weight Of the heritage they should
leave TO their children resting on their
hearts, they presented as issues funda-
