WHAT MR. ROWE SAYS ABOUT THE
 DUMPING GROUND

Over Which Branford is Excited Far
 Out in Deep Water-ApprovaI of ths
 Work by Major Leach.
 | With reference to the mud dumping
 in the deep water off the town of | Branford, Henry c. Rowe said last evening, in reply to the inquiry of our reporter:
 The two gentlemen in Branford who are reported to have been anxious con- l cerning the matter are quite unneces- sarily so. The place where the dump ing is being done is over two miles from Branford Point in deep water off the town of Branford, and the material is being spread over large extent Of territory, so as to make but little diff ference with the depth of water. The location where the dumping Is done has from twenty-five to thirty feet of water over it, while there is but six or seven feet in the lower part of Branford harbor below Branford Point.
 The dumping from New Haven har- Dor was formerly down at Adams Fall, which is much nearer New Haven har- DOT tnan the present. loCdIlly IS to Branford harbor and was in much shoaler water than the present dump ing ground.
 The reason that the dumping ground off New Haven was changed was to keep the material away from the oyster beds, which now extend four miles from the mouth of New Haven harbor.
 The dumping place now used off Branford and all other dumping places, cannot be used until approved by Ma jor Leach and by the supervisor of the harbor of New York, and when Major Leach has given his approval to any locality no citizen need have any ap- prehension about any injury resulting to navigation, as it is universally con ceded that there is no higher authority on questions of engineering and nav1- gation than Major Leach
 Major Leach undoubtedly investisat- ed this question thoroughly before giv- ing his consent to the use of this local ity, and there Is no man In Branford or New Haven who is competent to criticise decision on such a question by such an authority

 hand. "No-T haven't got time ter stop.
 s'pose you want me ter sign them

 negatively, but meeting with no re-
 sponse, went on in trembling tones.
 Yer see, every one seems ter think
 I'm so dead set after that pension, an

It seems ez if I wuz bein' paid fur Nathan's life. After I cum here an see the avenoo, where them troops marched along with their tat tered flags, an when I see them head stones an all this beauchus city they helped ter save, why, my whole soul, rig agin 1t. I sez ter myself, I can't take his life fur his coutry athout money an athout price; so, you see, can't sign them papers, nohow. I wuz goin' ter pay Miss Allen with part O that money, but guess she'll take it out in butter and eggs, an the ladies they've ordered hooked rugs, an the gentle men mfttens dn' uUfiers. Why, I've got 'nough ter do ter keep me busy don't know how long,"
 The Hon. Theophilus Lane bent from his towering height to take the little old lady's hand in his, and, as he gazed in the earnest face, transfigured by the light of a firm resolve, he felt a thrill that not all the applause from one of his famous speeches had had the power to awaken.
 Do you think that you could manage | to fill an order for me, Miss Penelope?" he asked, with as much anxiety as if 1 hooked rugs, mittens and muffiers were | a desirable commodity in Washington. l

 Miss Penelope went back to Canaan as innocent of wrongdoing as when she came, but before her return her story somehow got circulated round, until it reached the Presidents ear and he went so far as to ask for the pleas- ure of aprivate audience. It is safe to say that no potentate ever appreciated that honor more fully than Miss Pene- lope, as she made her curtesy to the Chief Executive and related brief &C., count of Nathan's battles.
 "Of course 1t was all on his account" she would always conclude, when she was relating the scene to her breath less auditors, after her return home. He seemed tickled to death to hear about it. Why, I shouldn't be a bit ef they put up one of them statoos to Nathan. There's heap uv of 'em stuck in the parks, all over the city, ,"-National Magazine.

MISS HELEN F. voRRA.

Helen E. vorra of Waterbury, q graduate of the Connecticut Training School for Nurses, class of 1892, died in St. Elizabeth's hospital, New York, Thursday, December IA. She had gone to the hospital to have an operation performed and had been there but few days when complications followed which resulted fatally. Miss Vorra was very successful in her profession and gained many warm friends. She had spent number of winters in Florida with families in which she had been employed as nurse and as invalids' companion, and was preparing to go again when taken ill. Her father, John H. Vorra, we'll known veteran of the civil war, and one sister, Mrs. s. Ed ward Starr of Brookfield, survive her. Miss Vorra was devout and faithful member of the Episcopal church, whose services she loved. The burial was in Evergreen cemetery, Watertown.

SEIZURES OF FLOUR.
Prof Woolsey's Views--Cannot Allow Flour to be Chased Contraband.

Prof Woolsey's Views-Cannot Allow
 Flour to be Chased Contraband
 Prof. Woolsey of the chair of inter- national law at Yale, yesterday discuss- ed in an interview the questions arising out of the British seizures of American flour and German vessels. He said in the case of the seizure of the American flour the one country cannot afford, nor can the other country permit any such principle as this which Great Britain in it's extremity seems to be clutching at. It Is apparent that she is laying down a terribly dangerous precedent for herself. Moreover, we as grain pro- ducers and as q people usually neutral, never can afford to allow provisions to be considered as contraband except un- der the sole condition of their deing des- tined for a beleagured port. That is the most that our government has con- ceded."
 Prof. Woolsey preferred not to express a detailed opinion as to the seizure of German vessels until the facts should become more manifest He added that the seizure of goods alleged to be con- traband in Suez canal might give rise to larger controversy than mere or dinary seizure would occasion.

WALLINGFORD.


 F. J. Wallace is experimenting the cutting of ice on the lake to fill the ice house on the Wallace dairy farms. It has a capacity of about 200 tons.
 Fishermen were at work yesterday on the North Farms reservoir cutting out fish from the ice. where, owing to the shallow water, it is frozen down to the mud. Bullheads. cells and perch were taken out by the bushel.
 The ice now being harvested Is about eight inches thick and clear as crystal. The board of relief will meet this morning at 10 o'clock in the town hall. Superintendent of the water commits sion, D. W. Burke, will have his of- flee in the town hall. Ivy lodge, K. of P, will install its officers next week Friday evening. Charles R. Oatman of King Solomon lodge of Woodbury is the latest arrival as inmate at the Masonic home H. H. Walker Is now located in the office of the International Silver com; pany in Meriden.

of 1899 will be asked of each producer,
 and care will be taken to exclude from this value the cost of packing and mar
 keting. It is desired also to ascertain the amount paid for labor and for fer tilizing during the crop year, and in ac-
 cordance with the desire of many of
 those engaged in the industry, esti-
 mates will be requested of the extent of any reduction in the crop, below what
 may be regarded as the normal produc- tion which may have occurred during
 1899 on account of blight, early frosts or
 other causes.
 Probably every one understands at
 this time that the work of the census office is in no way connected with tax ation or the various agencies for as-
 sessing taxes, and no one will now he's itate on account of an erroneous inn pression to the contrary, to furnish the information asked. The census office also emphasizes the fact that there will be no disclosure of the private business of any individual; that aggregates only will be shown in it's reports and that all information received in the sched- uIes will, so far as individual reports are concerned be regarded as strictly confidential.
 The census office has had extensive correspondence with the officers of the various cranberry growers associations, with individual producers, and with others who have manifested an interest in this branch of agricultural industry, and has made every effort to frame it's schedules in accordance with their de- sires It is to be hoped that these ef- forts will be appreciated by those who may be directly benefited by then and that they in turn will do all in their power to assist the census office in con- ducting it's inquiries.
 As it is essential, if the industry is to be completely represented, that the cen- sus office should have complete list of those engaged in 1t, there will be in- closed with each schedule a list of those known to the census office as be- ing engaged in cranberry culture with in the locality to which the inquiry is sent, and the recipient will be requested to furnish to the office the names of any persons on the list, who are cram berry growers In this way 1t is hoped | to secure the names of all of those who are not now listed in the census office. | The office will then forward schedules | to all such persons, and if they respond | and satisfactorily, there can l be no reason for the omission of any | important portion of the total cranber- ry production.

CRANBERRY PRODUCTION.
To Be Investigated by the Census Off,

 To Be Investigated by the Census Off, flee.
 1 MT l.. c. Powers the chief statisti- l clan in charge of the agricultural in vestigations of the Twelfth Census, is | making an especial effort to insure the adequate and complete representation of all branches of agricultural indus l try by the statisticse which will be col lected under his direction At the same time he has not considered it advisable
 to place upon the general agricultural
 schedule, which will be placed in the
 hands of the enumerators, very detailed inquiries concerning crops, the, produc- ton of which is strictly localized. Such
 products will be provided for in special
 schedules, which will be distributed in the localities only in which the crops to
 which they relate are grown
 Among the industries to receive treat
 ment of this character cranberry cul-
 ture is one of the most important. The
 special schedule to be used in this in
 vestigation has been prepared, and will
 be distributed soon after the first of
 January, 1900, at which time it is be- lieved that nearly the entire production for the year 1899 will have been mar keted
 The main dependence in this investi- gation will be, upon schedules to be transmitted and returned by mail, and therefore it's success will depend very largely upon the interest manifested by cranberry growers If they cooperate cordially with the census office, the inn portance and extent of their industry will be fully represented in the report on agriculture, and it's rank among the special agricultural industries will re- ceive suitable public recognition. If they fail to do so, however, their indus- try cannot but appear unfavorably, as compared with those which are more fully represented in the census statis- tics.
 The inquiries to be made will include questions concerning the ownership of each plantation or bog, as it is of course desirable to how what proportion of the total acreage is cultivated by those who own the land and what proportion by tenants. An attmpt will be made to se- gregate the area in natural vines from ! that in planted vines, and an inquiry | the number of vines planted l during the last three years has been [ framed in order to ascertain the number of young vines, and thus indicate in some degree the probable future pro- gress of the industry.
 There will also be two inquiries con- corning the quantity produced during 1S99 so as to show separately the pro- duction from natural and from planted vines.
