ANNOYED,

ut WAS a mean trick said the shifty-
eyed member Of the Legislature; "a mighty
mean trick
What's the matter?''
They've been circulating a rt,rnor about
me. 1t started by the man whom |
used to consider my best friend"
L haven't heard you mentioned recently
except in compliment. The last comment I
heard was that you are man whom moth
ing would swerve from sense of duty;
that when your mind is made up you will
fight to the bitter end"
That's it. That's what Tn telling you
about. What corporation or candidate is
going to offer man money after he gets a
reputation like that"

BRAKEMAN HAYES KILLED
IN An ACCIDENT IN 4oND STREET
YARDS, NEW YoRK.

Passengers on 5:35 Train from This city
Bruised Engine Cut or from Train
| for tho FIy-ln and Then stopped
Coaches Crash Into tt-Conductor
Hutchinson Badly Bruiscd-An In
vestigation Likely.
Passengers On the train which left
this city for New York at 5:35 We'd
nesday afternoon underwent an exper-
fence just as their trip was ending that
they are not likely to forget in hur-
ry. The train was due to arrive
in New York at 500, and from all re-
ports was on time. AS it reached the
yard at AID street, according to the
usual custom the engine and baggage
car cut off from the rest of the train
in order to let it run into the station
alone. The cutoff was made by head
brakeman Benjamin Hayes and the en-
CINE and baggage car rapidly drew
away from the rest Of the train.
After the cutoff Brakeman Hayes
stood at the brake to control the speed
of the cars as they entered the shed.
Beside him stood Conductor Hutchin-
son. Hardly minute had elapsed from
the time the cutoff occurred before the
latter noticed that the engine had sud-
denly stopped before crossing the
switch. Knowing q dangerous COLI

brake, while Hayes leaned down and
tried to shut off the air valve on the
forepart of the car.
The move cost him his life, for be-
fore he could accomplish his purpose
the two sections had come together
with terrific force and he was caught
between the two platforms. Conductor
Hutchinson was thrown off his feet by
the collision against the front of the
baggage car, and was badly stunned
and bruised. The platform on which
he stood was entirely splintered.
Hayes was alive and breathing when
taken from the car and he was remov-
ed at once to the Flower hospital,
where he died yesterday morning With
out gaining consciousness. His mother,
who was out of the city, was telegraph
ed for. Before the accident Hayes
boarded at 44S Lexington avenue. When
the accident occurred most of the
passengers were standing UP prepar-
ing to leave the cars. They were
thrown to the floor with much force
and many Of them We're badly bruised
and hurt. One of them, a New Haven
man, says that several We're hardly
able to leave the train when 1t finally
reached the station He himself was
thrown from his feet against a seat.
The cause of the accident is the part
that puzzles The engineer ie Clifford |
Downs of this city 1t Is thought that |
seeing the signal against him he stop
ped. By some 1t is said though that |
the signal was all right. The true
cause is hard to get at. Railroad men |
last evening refused to have anything |
to say in regard to the matter and all |
had a general air of mystery upon the |
subject. All felt great sorrow over the |
untimely death of young Hayes. Con- |
ductor Hutchinson was not on his run |
last evening and 1t was said that he |
had probably been held over to await |
an investigation. 1t is remarkable that |
he was not more severely injured An
Investigation will probably be held to-
day

Middletown Lady Who Was Saved

Mrs. Charles B. Clark of Warwick
street, Middletown, has received a tel
egram apprising her of the safe arrival
at Halifax Of her sister, Mrs. E. Field
ing Bell, who was a passenger on the
wrecked steamship Portia. No partic-

than that Mrs. Bell escaped in a boat
with the loss Of her baggage The Hart
ford Post says: Mrs. Bell left her
home in New York intending to go to
Halifax Oh q pleasure trip. She was a
guest of her sister, Mrs. Clark, in this
city last week, and sailed on Saturday
for Halifax from Boston. Previous to
her departure she made a joking refer
ence to her journey and said she might
next be heard from al the bottom of the
ocean. There came near being more
truth than jest in the remark Mrs.
Bell has been a considerable traveller
for number of years and has had 9th

from drowning at Savin Rock several

WATERING CARTS WILL WATER.

Street Sprinkling by Special Arrange
ment Will Begin To-Day.
Director Troup of the department Of
public works has made temporary ar
rangement by which the sprinkling of
streets in twelve wards will begin to-
day The four contractors in the city
who have facilities for street sprinklng
have conferred together and at first
submitted a bid for the work at $3.50
per day for sprinkling cart, man and
team This bid was not satisfactory to
the director and the contractors after
another conference made a proposition
which was accepted.
The offer was that each one of the
four contractors would furnish seven
carts with men and horses, to work nine
hours a day, for $3.50 week. The di-
rector entered into an agreement with
the contractors to do the sprinkling
under these terms as temporary ar
rangement.
The work will be done in this way
until the mayor signs the orders passed
by the common council, or until some
other permanent arrangement is made.
The contractors have offered, if the
agreement with them is extended to COW
err all the sprinkling to be done this
summer, to furnish eight carts with men
and horses for $3.50 per week.
The four contractors who will do the
sprinkling under the terms mentioned
above are John A. Dooittle e. Co., C.
w. Blakeslee & Sons, A. Brazos & Son
and Frank Brazos. In addition to the
arrangement made with these an ar
arrangement has also been made with the
New Haven Street Sprinkling company
whereby that company will continue to
do sprinkling by cars until the latter
part of next week, when permanent
contract will be entered into.
Yesterday afternoon each contractor
was assigned to sprinkle a certain por-
ton of the city.
