 the improvements which have been made in naval matters in the last few years. From that city he came here to

 Allison, who was connected with the Aluminium, Brass and Bronze company of this city. Inventor Allison has prac-
 tically made life work of perfecting the peculiar process which has only within the past two or three weeks be- come practical. To a reporter of the Standard Lord Beresford said: This process will revolutionize the making of rolled steel, and is unqualiiedly tn, fin- est thing of the kind l ever saw. It
 will prove of great advantage to all navies as there will be a great reduc- tion in the price and weight of the pro- duct"

The rolling mill is very busy, all the departments having again started after the shut down on account of the ice blockade. They use seventy five tons of coal in twenty-four hours. Seldom has the mill been compelled to shut down before for want of coal. A few more such industries like these two iron mills and business in Fair Haven would be greatly improved. A delegation of nine women of the Grand avenue Baptist church attended the meeting of the Woman's Baptist Missionary Conference of Southwestern Connecticut in session at the Calvary Baptist church yesterday Mrs. s. W. Hammond reported for the foreign mis- sion society of the Grand avenue church. She reported the death of Mrs. F. M. Wizer since the last annual meet ing.

WANT THE SNOW REMOVED.

Citizens Petition Board of Health With
 Reference to the Condition of the Green.
 | Definite action has been taken by a
 number of the prominent residents of
 Chapel and Elm streets with reference
 to the removal of the pile of snow and filth on the Green that is at present an eyesore and menace to the health of
 the general public. Judge Lynde Har- rison, acting as counsel, has served a notice upon the board of health to re- move the same. The notice reads as | follows:
 To the Board of Health Commissioners
 of the City of New Haven: Dear Sirs-I address this to you, mail ing the same to the clerk of your board In behalf of certain residents and tax payers of New Haven, occupying resi- dencos upon the public Green, I make complaint that the snow and filth and garbage from the streets which the employees of the city of New Haven have recently caused to be placed upon the public Green, bounded by Chapel and College streets, are injurious to their health, and that the continuance of the same there is a nuisance Complaint has been made by various persons to members of the board of health for sev- eral days past concerning this nuisance. You have the power and authority un- der the charter to immediately cause an abatement of this nuisance. In behalf of my clients I ask you to take lmme- diate action at your meeting to be held February 2S, for the removal of the snow and filth which has been deposited on the public square.
 The matter was to have been taken up at meeting of the board yesterday af- ternoon, but there was no quorum and in consequence no action was taken. It is said that the members of the board do not consider the pile of snow injur- ious to health and that they will not pay any attention to the above notice. The matter will doubtless be carried into the courts unless the board of health orders the removal of the pile of refuse as desired.
