TO SAVE HIS TRUNK.
Baby Elephant Stopped a Fast Express
 Train Four Times

Baby Elephant Stopped Fast Express Train Four Times.
 A few nights ago the Federal express, west bound, was stopped four times be- tween New Haven and Stamford, in each instance without apparent reason. The thing began to get fatlguing to the trainmen and passengers. Finally one of the brakernen, who was one a circus attache, solved the mystery. In a spe- cial car at the end of the train were four baby elephants, which were being shipped from one of the Gentry Broth- CTS baby elephant and pony shows, one of which is exhibiting in Bridgeport at present, to another at New Rochelle, and the brakeman sat them down as the cu'prits. His suspicious were prov en well founded when, a few minutes after the train got under way after the fourth stop, one of the little fellows reached up with his trunk and gave the cord a good yank. The brakeman, to save the stopping of the train for noth- ing, gave the go-ahead signal on the cord and then cut it out from the ele- plant car. The rest of the ride toward New Rochelle, where the car was switched off, was without incident.

 THE STOCK MARX EFT.
The General Tone Firm Yesterday

New York, Aug. 3.-Sugar, Brooklyn Transit, Baltimore and Ohio, and Unior
 Pacific fell somewhat into the back l ground today An effort was made , by the traders to bring forward some of the other railroad stocks to take the
 place of these recent favorites. These
 did not avail to fill the gap left by the
 quietude of the mercurial specialties
 but the days dealings had an appear
 ance of rather better distribution and
 the general tone of the market was firm and approached to positive strength at times. The center of this strength was the granger group, which was favorably affected by the show of increased earn | ings for the fourth week in July by the St. Paul system. The showing was par ticularly effective because it compared with a very high level of earnings last year. and because St. Paul has rather been locked upon as a leader of the re- actionary tendency in railroad earnings incident to the falling off in general business. There was no special fea ture
 of traffic to explain the recovery, which contrasts with decrease for each of
 the earlier weeks of the month. It is
 attributed to general merchandise traf-
 fic. There was a renewed effort also to
 advance Union Pacific, which met with
 some success At the high level the
 grangers, Pacific and Southwesterns
 were generally a point or more to the
 good. The movement was directed in
 part against the short interest and
 when it had covered the market lapsed
 into semi-stagna ton and dropped lower.
 The traders made something of the
 large increase ill cash in prospect in to-

DRuMMERs' SUMMER OUTING
At Pleasure Beach-Great Ball Game


 At Pleasure Beach-Great Ball Game
 New, Haven Wins-Other Sports.
 Bridgeport, Aug. 3-The annual sum- 1ner outing of the Connecticut Commer. cial Travellers association took place al Pleasure Beach to-day. About fifty of the bagmen were in attendance. A cruise on the sound. a dinner and a baseball game were the features.
 After the clam chowder exercises Committeeman Samuel Wakeman mar shaled his cohorts to the race track Two baseball teams were chosen one alleged to represent Bridgeport and the other pirating the colors of New Haven. They were made up as follows
 New Haven-King, Trott Mozart land, Skinner, Murray, Jackson, Futile, Bartram and Allan.
 ridgeport-Burritt, Blackman, Lit tie, Fogg, s. Cate, Wakeman, Judson, Paisle and Kellogg.
 Frederick Hotchkiss of Meriden, an ex-New Haven Gray, was umpire. He sat in a chair back of the catcher and out of the line of the ball, and held an umbrella over his head. From this point he rendered decisions which pro- duced alternate spasms and coma on the part of the players The game lasted three innings and was won by New Haven and the umpire by the score of 8 to 2. The alleged Bridgeporters declared that Jackson, who played cen- ter field for New Haven seated in a chair, was a ringer. Anyway, he made a double and single in two times at bat and stole three bases
 The baseball game was followed by a one hundred yard dash, a wheelbarrow race, bicycle race and race between fresh water drummers in salt water skiffs
 Dinner was served at 2:30 in the big restaurant at the pavilion. Some enc said that the drummers hold these summer dinners each year just so that each can prime himself with stories enough to last him under the midwinter banquet. Whither true or not, the op- purtunity was afforded to any one with a good memory and luck enough to be in that dining room this afternoon,
 No business meeting was held, the association having departed from it's former custom of electing officers tt each semi-annual meeting.
 Among the earlier arrivals at the Beach, who were greatly reinforced be- fore the dinner hour, were Frederick Hotchklss of Meriden, James McNerny of Derby, J. H. Little, F. F. Chapman and Major Coles of Hartford, John Me Partland, T. c. Mcfarland, l.. H. Bates and M. w. Hardy of New Haven, M. J. Fogg and A. A. Trott of Water bury, R. w Burritt, Robert J. Veit c, B. Nichols, Samuel Wakeman, sherman Cate, H. J. Horsford and Lacy Black man of Bridgeport.

system by 1900 majority. The same
system was in vogue for a ume in
South Carolina.

The total vote OF the state at the
last election, a shown by the official
reports from counties which, with one
exception, are all ait hand, shows that
the vote was larger than the estimates
before electian placed it. There was
a total vote of between $1,000 and S..
900 cast IN the state. where 1t was
figured before the election tnat $1,000
would be a liberal estimate. Bryan
got about the same vote as four years
ago, while McKinley's increase was
large. The vote cast for Wooley,
Debs and Barker was small, the yot-
ers in the state usually being OF the
opinion that 1t is foolish to register
their convictions, however strong they
may be, for a candidate who has no
chance of election.
