have a trifie over $200 on hand towards | another payment. Can you not help ! us to raise the amount necessary to clear off this debt. When we think of | the thousands of dollars that have been make additions to charitable buildings, and start new schemes of benevolence, we are tempted to feel that the public
 have forgotten the United Workers, or that their work and needs are too small to be considered worth helping. There is plenty of money in New Haven, and we beg that a little more of it may come our way from those who have not
 heretofore realized our needs.
 There have been even more than the
 usual perplexities during the past year.
 Owing to the absence from town of the faithful chairman of the Boys club,
 and the difficulty of finding a success
 sor, the treasurer most kindly added
 this charge to her other duties, and to her we desire to express our warm est thanks. We are fortunate in se- curing again the services of Mrs. Beach but we must beg that you give her your support in finding visitors to assist her, and In creating fresh interest among your friends.
 Mrs. Tillou, the valued chairman of the employment bureau, has been obliged to give up the work to our great regret. That department will be carried on, however, under the direction of the experienced members of that committee, and we trust that increased resources both in money and in pre- pared work may enable us to enlarge the list of poor women to whom we can give employment. We want not only money from the public, but such an interest as may encourage all our workers, so that their labors may seem the lighter for warm and kindly sympathy. I can only repeat the thanks of the various committees for favors received from individuals, socie- ties, the city press, and hope for their continued support and kindness through the coming year.

$4O,000 TO Y. M. c. A.
Unknown Donor Gives That Amount
 With Certain Restrictions

Unknown Donor Gives That Amount With Certain Restrictions.
 One of the most valuable gifts ever
 made to the Young Mems association is
 donation of $40000 which was made
 known by Secretary Lotze yesterday
 morning The name of the generous
 donor is withheld from publication for
 the present by request and will not be
 made public until certain conditions imposed in the agreement are com
 piled with.
 These conditions call for the sub scriptions of s25,000 each. by three other citizens prior to January g. 19OO Aside from these conditions the donor pro-
 vides that the gift shall not become
 binding unless by the first of next June the entire $225,O00 for the erection of the building shall have been made.
 The managers of the association are very anxious to secure the three addi- tional pledges, and this seems a very opportune time for some other philan- thropical people of this city to come forward and bind the pledge which has already been made
 The text of the gift follows:
 I hereby agree for myself, my heirs executors and administrators, to pay the sum of forty thousand dollars (s40,- 000) for the purpose of erecting a gym, nasium for the Young Mems Christian association of New Haven, Conn.,, and agree that the sum so subscribed shall be due and payable to the trtasurer of said association not later than Septem- Der l, 1900, provided that three other pledges of twenty-five thousand dollars each shall be made to the association on or before January 20, 1900, and pro- vided further that this pledge for for ty thousand dollars ($40,000) shall not be binding unless prior to January 1, 1900 two hundred and twenty-five thou sand dollars ($225, ,O0O) shall have been for the erection of the en- tire building.
 The gentleman making this condi- tional gift of s4OOOO will sail for Europe in January.
 MT. Lotze when interviewed on the subject last evening said that this gift l Is for the gymnasium only, subscribed | for that purpose definitely. It is n- l tended to have the gymnasium building | in the rear of the main Y. M. c. A. | building that is to be erected. We are planning for $295, 900, which will pro- vide for erecting and equipping the Y. M. C. A. building and for the current expenses up to 1902. The gymnasium, If obtained, will be named in honor of the donor of the $40,000. We now greatly want some one to come forward and give us the funds for an auditorium to be erected in the center of the Y. VI. C. A. building. From 1000 to $50. 100 will build and furnish it. We pro- pose that whoever gives the money to ouild the auditorium shall have it named in his or her honor. We are now going to work most enthusiastic ally to raise the three additional sums if S25, 900 each to secure the gift of s40,- 100, which will be part of the $225,0O0 We ask for in all.

MET CAPTAIN IN BALTIMORE,
Thirty-Five Years After the Battle at
 Fredericksburg.

Thlrty-Ffve Years After the Battle at Fredericksburg.
 Thomas McClunie of Hartford who l served in the Seventh Rhode Island in the civil war and was struck three times in one day in the battle of Fred
 ericksburg, in December, 1862, met with
 his old captain, for the first time after | the campaign, in Baltimore two years ago, while he was in the National Sol
 diers' hospital in that locality. The story of the long separation is an inter- esting one.
 l MT. McClunie was in the Seventh Rhode Island practically as a stranger. He had not resuded in Rhode Island
 much more than year prior to the outbreak of the civil war, and had not
 made an extensive acquaintance in the
 city where he was living. He went
 from here to Providence in 1860. The
 majority of his friends were here. He was with his regiment at Fredericks-
 burg. which was in the old Ninth corps,
 Burnside's faYorite command. The
 corps was in the center grand division of the army, and was in the perilous
 assignments between the city of Fred
 ericksburg and Mayre's Heights, which
 were strongly fortified and controlled
 by the rebel forces. The men were in
 light marching order, with blankets
 rolled and carried in the old army way,
 across the left shoulder, the ends being
 fastened at the side under the right
 arm While awaiting action at the
 front tbo thair ar,
 lying down as much as possible. The rebel artillery from the Heights was pouring shot and shell with great rap idlty MT. McClunie was struck by a piece of shell, the rolled blanket alone saving him from having his right hip shattered.
 Soon afterwards a call was made for volunteer marksmen to creep out in ad- vance of the Union lines and pick off some of the Confederate gunners, who were doing such execution. MT. Me Clunie was one of the number, taking the chance of life and death with a promptitude that lastingly commended itself to the officers of the company. He made his way to the advance lines and succeeded in the task that had been as- signed to him. The rebel sharpshooters were not less on the alert than the Unionists and were covering the bat tery that wasf pouring it's shot into the Union lines MT. McClunie was struck twice. One ball carried away his hat. The second ohe passed through the jaw, entering near the cheek bone and sever ing an artery. The blood poured out in a stream, threatening death from bleed- ing Captain Bennett of the company to stop the flow of blood, but was unable to do so from any means which he had at hand. The wounded man was sent to the rear for medical help. But before he left the lines he was complimented In the highest way for the bravery which he had shown.
 Captain Bennett was called home im- after the battle, and it was not for thirty-odd years that MT. Me Clunie saw him again. This was in Baltimore. He is now living in Alder son, N. C.. and the friendship renewed f In Baltimore has been kept up during | he past two years with the greatest in- est.--Hartford Times

NEW YORK's SUSPECTED PLAGUE
 CASES

New York, Nov. 20.-The patients re- moved from the steamer J. w. Taylor on Saturday suffering from bubonic plague are improving. Dr. L'Hom- medeu said to-day: '"rhe patients are doing as well as can be expected and I have every reason to believe that all danger of infection from these patients Is past. I say this because the cultures made by Dr. Fitzpatrick show a nega- tive result No trace of the germ of bubonic plague was found. This indi-> cates that the disease had run It's course and that the germs do not exist in the patients. We have at our laboratory an ample supply of bubonic plague serum, but it was not necessary to use it in these cases"
 The holds of the steamer have been subjected to the fumes of sulphur al- most continuously since arrival. It is

TO-NIGHT'S POLO.
Champions from Providence WilI 0p-
 pose the Blues.

To-night's polo contest between last seasons champions and the Blues ought to be game that all patrons of the sport love to see, clean, fast and scientific. It is pleasant to relate that on all occasions when the Greys and Blues cross sticks that there is com pete absence of that rough and un- manly play which at times character izes the meeting of other teams To- nights game should be no exception to the rule and the patrons can flock to the Polo hall satisfied that whichever team wins it will be a, game that will be pleasant to witness. There is large demand for reserved seats for the game, but many good ones still remain on sale at Wells cigar store on Chapel street.

LONG PA STORATES RECALLED.
Rev. MT. Marvin of VI OOdbridge Pasto
 for ThirtY.fiYn Yaara.

The day of long pastorates has not wholly gone by. There used to be a time when pastors remained at one church for twenty-five or thirty and even fifty years, and sometimes even longer, but now there are few who have charge of pastorate for even half that time. The idea is recalled in the in stance of Rev. MT. Marvin of Wood- bridge, who has had a pastorate in that old town over Woodbridge Congrega- tional church for over thirty-five years. Rev MT. Marvin is a minister who is beloved by all his congregation and held in the high esteem of every one with whom he is acquainted. Notwithstand- ing his long bastorate, MT. Marvin takes an active part in all the doings of the church and is one of the most vigorous and conscientious workers in church matters in the state. He holds the third longest pastorate in Connecti- cut the other two older ones being held by Rev. pr. Burr of North Lyme and Rev. MT. Fellows in the eastern section of the state.

STANDS BY ITS ACTION.
Four Hours Discussion in the c. L
L. Over the Linotype Row.

I. oNer the Linotype ROW.
The Central Labor Union last night, by
very decisive majority, decided not to
rescind the resolution adopted on last Mon
day night criticising the action of the In
teTnational Typographical Union, compell-
ing linotype machine tenders to become
members of the Typographical Union. The
meeting was very largely attended, there
being present besides the delegates, large
number of the members Of the Machinists'
and typographical unions
The matter was called up Immediately
after the reading CT the minutes, on a mo-
ticn proposing that the unicn rescind its
action taken on last Monday night. A
long discussion followed, which was par
ticipated in by many of the most promi-
nent of the delegates, especially those rep
/ resenting the two crafts most directly in
terested. The debate continued for four
hours, waxing warmer as it progressed,
and it was not until the bells were tolling
the midnight hour that vote was taken.
The vote was in favor Of the machinists
and was received with long and loud ap-
plause. The matter was disposed of. so
far as the Central Labor Union is con-
cerned, by the adoption of the following
resolution:
Resolved That il is the of the Central
Labor Union that the question at issue between
maclinists and printers relative TO linotype ma
chine tenders is a matter beyond the jurisdiction
Of this body, and it is recommended that the
two local bodies directly interested adjust the
differences between themselves
This resolution is practically an endorse
ment Of the action of the union taken on
last Monday night, when it decided that, in
accord with the resolution adopted by the
( International Typographical Union in the
Birmingham case, local central bodies
had no power to adjust differences between
( two unions having national heads.
/ The delegates from the Electrical Work
Z ers' Union reported that the differences
between that organization and the local
/ contractors had been amicably adjusted
/ and that all men had returned to work
