CURRENT COMMENT.

Speaking of Senator Hanna's campaign
collectors the Philadelphia Record Dem }
says: "What need has Hanna of all this
money? Can he put it 90 any honest use?
The great body of Americans whose votes
are not for sale cannot be influenced i'm
their choice of candidates by anything
which money can provide. The most en-
thusiastic and thorough political cam
paigns in our history have been carried
on with infinitely smaller sums than that
which Hanna is collecting. In every COM
munity there are partisans enough TO
make up any ~easona BILE amount for cam
paign expenses; but Hanna will fling his
corrupting millions into the doubtful
states No account will be rendered to
the business men of the disbursement
of this money. Indeed, no Republican
will want TO know what may have been
done with il. The contributors know
that there can be no honest use for it -

sTEINITZ ON WARDS ISLAND.

New York, Feb. 12.-William Stein- itz, for many years the chess cham pion, was taken to the Manhattan State Hospital for the Insane, on Wards S Island, to-day. There had been some talk that his friends might raise a fund for his maintenance elsewhere. It was said his wife is unable to provide for him in private institution.
 MT. Steinitz was kept in the insane pavilion at Bellevue till this morning, because pr. Robertson had heard that some of his friends might come to his rescue and have the patient taken to a sanitarium. No word was received from any one in relation to his care, and it was therefore decided to send him away. When he was conducted to the boat, to be taken to Wards Island, he retained his little pocket chessboard, and some few effects which he had when he arrived at the hospital He was apparently rational, but did not speak to any one.

WANT RESTRICTIONS REMOVED
Catholics Wish Trolley Road Extended

Catholics Wish Trolley Road Extended to St. Lawrence Cemetery. The councilmen will this evening re- oeive eight petitions from the different Catholic parishes of the city, relative to the petition of the Fair Haven and Westville Railroad company to cross the Derby avenue bridge and run to St. Lawrence cemetery.
 When the common council made such conditions that the road could not cross a meeting was held by the corporations of St. Francis orphan asylum and of St. Bernard's and St. Lawrence's ceme- tery associations, at which action was started to influence the common council to remove the conditions. It is sig nificant fact that these petitions are numerously signed and that the names of the pastors are included in the list of signers
 The petition which has been circulat- ed in St. Patrick's parish and which is a duplicate of the others is as follows: To the Honorable Court of Common
 Council of the City of New Haven:
 The undersigned petitions are mem bers St. Patrick's parish respectfully represent that:
 1-They are accustomed at all seasons to visit St. Lawrence cemetery for various purposes, such as the purchase and case of cemetery lots and to visit the graves of deceased friends and rel atives
 2--That the restrictions placed by your honorable body upon the Fair Ha- ven and Westville Railroad company, which cause said corporation to run no cars beyond the Derby avenue bridge, and great inconvenience and hardship to persons desirous of visiting said cemetery, particularly in indictment or cold weather and especially to the aged.
 3-By reason of said restrictions some of the undersigned are obliged to hire carriages, though they cannot we'll af- ford same.
 They therefore respectfully ask your honorable body to remove any and all restrictions which cause said corpora tion to run no cars to said cemetery.

BURGLARS AT WORK.
House of Two Well Known Clergymen
 Ransacked.


 Ransacked
 Two well known clergymen of this city were victimized by burglars Sum- day evening in a manner which showed that those who did the job were no amateurs. Two other burglaries re- ported to the police as having occurred about the same time would seem to in- dicate that a band of crooks had select- ed New Haven as their place of opera tons for that evening. As yet the de- tective bureau has been unable to gain any clue regarding them.
 The first case reported to the police was that of the burglary of the resi- dence of the Rev. George H. Ferris, pastor of Calvary Baptist church, who resides at 515 George street. Between the hours of 7:30 and 9:S0 Sunday even ing while MT. Ferris and his family were at church, some person or persons obtained access to the house by unlock ing the back door with a false key. They proceeded on a rumaging tour upon every floor and left the place in the greatest confusion. As nearly as can be made out the proceeds of the burglary were $7 in money, lady'.s hunt ing case gold watch, gold breast pin, gold crescent breast pin with blue enamel, a clover leaf garnet ring, a plain gold garnet ring, and piece of gold chain bearing two half dollar gold coins.
 The next burglary was reported from the residence of the Rev. Ashell c. Egg gleston, pastor of Grace Methodist church at Howard avenue and Portsea street, whose house is in the rear of the church. This burglary was commit ted at about the same time as the oth- CT and entrance to the house was ob- tained through a rear window A great CT harvest was gathered here than at the former place, some $45 in money as we'll as number of articles of jew elry being taken. The loss will be un- der $100 however it is said.
 Thieves entered J. A. Stodel's cigar factory, No. 105 Meadow street, some time between Saturday night and Mon- day morning with the aid of false keys and stole a quantity of pipes, tobacco and cigars, the total value of which Is less than $50.
 On Saturday night Mrs. o. F. Jewell of 404 Crown street was robbed of her hand shopping bag near the corner of Chapel and Church streets. The rob- bers cut the cords which held the bag upon Mrs Jewell's arm. In the bag was a sum of money. pair of gold trimmed glasses and some papers. The loss was reported to the police.

address was very well received.
On the silver issue Mr.. Hermann said
the public would hear less and less OF II

said, had told Bryan he could not carry

and Croker's advice Is being followed. For
that reason, the speaker said. MIR. Bryan

Taking up the subject Of imperialism.
Mr.. Hermann asked II any Democrat knew
a Republican who desired to change our
form Of government. He challenged any
Democrat TO name a single Republican
who entertained any such desire. II there
was not one. as he claimed. how could
the party. which Is composed OF sndivid-

Mr.. Hermann dweit at length on the
benefit that retention OF the Philippines

wILKEsBARRE, Pa, Oct. 5.-The crisis
in the coal miners strike seems to be ap-
preaching.
well known operator here said yes
terday that there was an understanding
reached at the meeting OF the representa-
t.ves of the big companies and the indi-
vidual operators In this city last Tuesday
According TO the understanding. the no.
tices OF an increase in wages were not
TO be posted all at the same time, but
gradually. This part OF the programme
has now been carried out. The companies
and nearly all the operators are in line
for 10 per cent. increase. II is now up
to President Mitchell to decide what he
is going TO do In the matter. If he de-
lays action with the idea In view that
the operators will make a better Offer he
is liable to delay a settlement OF the
strike indefinitely.
An analysis OF the 10 per cent. Increase
offered shows that the average miners
wages would not be increased fully 10
per cent. but It Is argued that II is bet
ter than nottingham II Is victory. af-
ter all. for the strikers; that 1t Is the
entering wedge. and that II the United
Mine Workers keep their organization In
tact they can compel the operators TO
make further concession In the years to
come.
1t is said that President Mitchell takes
this view OF the situation himself. IT Is
known. however. that some OF President
Mitcheil's advisers are against the accept
ance of the 10 per cent. basis.
