MAY BE WANTED IN BRIDGEPORT,
Adolph Hughes Arrested Here Last
Night for Theft.

A Frenchman who gave his name as
Adolph Holm, but whose name is be-
lieved by Captain Cowles to be Adolph
Hughes, was arrested yesterday after
noon by Detective Dennehy on the
charge Of stealing articles from the
trunk of a fellow roomer at No. S45
Grand avenue. When Hughes was ar
rested he had photograph album con-
tanning a number of pictures in his pos
session. He claimed to have just come
from Providence and said that he was
on his way to Waterbury, where he had
formerly lived. After he had been piled
with questions by Captain Cowles, he
stated, however, that he had been en-
ployed in Bridgeport in the American
Graphophone shop. He acted very
much alarmed after he had given this
information. That shop is the one from
which a series of large thefts have re-
Gently occurred and it is thought to be
possible that he may be wanted in
Bridgeport. The album which he had
and was trying to pawn or sell he
claimed, was family album which be-
longed to him, but it was identified as
having been taken from the trunk Of
another roomer at 845 Grand avenue.

American Sugar refining company. Suit
was brought to-day by him in the name

KIPLING TAKING NOURISHMENT.
Funeral of Little Josephine TO be Pri-
vste-Hequest to Newspapers.

New York, March 6.-Mr. Doubleday
Kipling has had splendid day. He
is beginning gradually to take noursh-
ment of a more substantial kind. OF
course, he has the appearance Of a man
who has been at the point OF death and
his mind works slowly. He has not
been told of his daughter Josephine's
death, which occurred this morning.
Elsie has been somewhat better to-day
and ] think she is well on the road to
recovery" Then referring to slip in
his hand, he said: After talking the
matter over with me, Mrs Kipling de-
cided to make this request to the
newspapers: 1T is Mrs. Kipling's
earnest wish that all matters connected
with the funeral of her daughter Jo-
sephine may be entirely private. She
appreciates the fact that information
concerning Mr.. Kipling is of public in
terest, but this sorrow is her own and
she feels sure that newspaper reporters
and editors will not wish to intrude
upon her privacy Mr.. Doubleday
said that this meant that Mrs. Kipling
did not wish even the time or place of
her daughters funeral to be made pub
lie Mr. Doubleday said that num-
ber of reasons induced her to make
that decision, and one of them was that
for Mr.. Kipling's sake the death and
funeral of Josephine must be passed as
quickly and as quietly as possible Mrs.
Kipling knew, he said, that the papers
could find everything out if they tried,
but in this case she asked them not to
do so.

closed in general uproar, the ushers
having to drive the public from the floor
and platform of the chamber.

FEEDING OF THE CUBANS
REQ 0UISITIONS FOR TWO MILLION
RATIONS FOE MARCH.
The Amount Instead of Diminishing
Hus Doubled Since January I-Cubans
Use Every Possible Opportunity to
Get Rattons Under False Prctenses-
Secret Session OF Cuban Assembly.

Havana, March 6.--For the month of
March the various provinces. excepting
the province of Santiago have made re-
QUESTION for two million rations. Thus.
| instead of diminishing, the requisition
has doubled since that of January 1.
| This is due partly to the fact that the
Cubans use every possible opportunity
of getting rations under false pretences
and partly to the fact that the American
distributors are unable to discriminate
properly between impostors and the
really necessitous. Indeed, the Ameri-
cans are almost in a position of having
to give to anybody who looks poor. The
requisition for the province of Havana
for March Is $4,000 rations. General
Ludlow has given the strictest orders
that the distributors in Havana SHALL
so far as possible, give only to persons
really i'll, utterly unable to work, or of
advanced age, and that applicants who
are proven guilty of misrepresenting
their condition shall be severely dealt
with. The supply ship Comal with a
million rations, Will proceed to Matan-
zas and Neuvitas to unload them.
The Cuban military assembly held
third secret session this afternoon,
guard being placed around the house
where the meeting was held and the
public being vigorously excluded from
the precincts The assumption is that
the mysterious s12 100000 proposal faith
cred by Senor Fares Is still under dis
cussion. General Maxine Gomez ig-
nores the assembly With the disarm-
ing of the army, the assembly's func-
tions will disappear. 1t Is rumored to-
day that the members are considering
an early dissolution, but are trying to
gain further notoriety before the as
sembly ceases to exist
In some of the political clubs talk
still continues In favor of forming a
political party under the leadership of
General Gomez, with the specific object
of leading Cuba to independence

WRECK NARROWLY ATERTED
Immense Boulder on Air Line Tracks
-Four d Just in Time.

East Hampton, March 6.-The east
bound passenger train over the Air Line
division due here at 7:21 p. m. narrowly
escaped being wrecked at Great Hill
cut, about two miles west of East
Hampton, tonight. The recent hard
rains loosened big boulder, which fell
upon the track, as did also quantity
of dirt. The night watchman at the
cut, Thomas Cavanaugh, discovered the
boulder on the track just in time to flag
the train, though it was a close call.
The boulder weighed about seven hum
dred pounds and by means of crowbars
and sledges the train crew succeeded in
removing it and the dirt was then soon
cleared away.

Two battalions of the Twentieth regi-
ment infantry have reinforced General
Hale's brigade. All the native huts
have been destroyed at Mariquina, and
the country there is pretty well cleared,
but the rebels were returning in small
bodies at sundown. Apparently they
have secured a new supply of smokeless
ammunition recently, as there has been
a noticeable difference during the last
few days. The Spanish commissioners
who are endeavoring to secure the re-
lease of the Spanish prisoners in the
hands of Aguinaldo have returned to
Malolos to offer $2,0000oo for their re-
lease. As Aguinaldo has been demand
ing $7,00o,000 it is not likely that their
mission will be successful.

Willimantic, March 6.--The Light
Heat and Power company Of Boston,
which is buying up gas and electric
plants throughout New England will
in all probability secure control of the

of S120,000 and the Gas Light company
was organized in 1890 with $4,000 capi-
