POLO DIRECTORS MEETING.
Matter of Holiday Receipts Adjusted
 Amicably.

The National polo directors held a meeting in the Hotel Garde yesterday afternoon, which was probably the final one of the season. The object of the meeting was to adjust the matter of receipts from the holiday games. At a previous meeting it was voted to pool the receipts, but misunderstanding arose among some of the directors later as to what was meant by this. Some thought that it guaranteed to all a certain amount. The matter was set tied amicably at yesterdays meeting.
 The meeting opened about 3 o'clock and closed shortly after o'clock Quite a number of directors dined at the ho- tel. Those present were: President T. H, Murnane, Secretary and Treasurer J. C.. Morse, and Messrs. Smith, Au- fort and Larom of New Haven, Cotter and Jennings of Hartford, Reilly of Meriden, Doe and Jacques of Water bury, Parsons of New Britain and Murray of Providence.

FAILURES LAST YEAR.

were 9,393 in number, with liabilities of $123, 132679. The last days of the year added few to the number, and some millions to the known liabilities of firms and banks which failed close to the end, so that commercial defaults reached $90 0S79,SS9, of which $30, 792, ,164 were in manufacturing, $4S,924,711 in trading, and s11 954 in brokerage, promoting and other commercial liabli- ties. Yet it remains true that the fail ures of 1899 were in amount smaller than in any other year of the past twenty-five, excepting 1880 and 1881. Failures in the New England states are compared below:

EXCITING INCIDENT OF IRTfL BE-
 FORE JUSTICE ANDREWS.
I. $. Burr, Sued for n Note, Attempts to Chew Up the Evidencs-W eather Puts Stop to Ice eHarvesting-StreetL Light- ing Changes-0ther Items.

There was quite an exciting scene in the justice court Saturday morning. The case was before Justice of the Peace Fl. w. Andrews and was a suit of H. F. Hall against Israel s. Burr over note of $29, which Burr gave Hall February 23, 1898 Hall was repre- scented by Attorney Fowler, while Burr had no counsel, and claimed that his counsel was in Europe and asked a con tinuance, which was not granted. Burr claimed the signature on the note was forgery and said that Miss Nancy Hall, a sister of H. F. Hall, was the forger. Burrs signature on the tax list was introduced in court and found to be the same as on the note, which had peculiarities that no one except an ex- pert could ever have forged. During the discussion Burr got his hands on the note in, question and before any one could stop him had began to chew it up and succeeded in destroying all but the two initials on the signature of the note Attorney Fowler made a rush on Burr to rescue the note from total annihilation and had to floor him before he could secure the note, which bid fair to be soon masticated. When Burr found that his scheme to destroy the damaging evidence against him was frustrated he was decidedly peni- tent and signed a paper to the effect that his charges of forgery against Miss Hall were without foundation and final ly agreed to pay $115 to settle without further barley,

Preached Before Two Congregations
 YesferlnY.

The Rt. Rev. Thomas F. Gailor, D. D., bishop of Tennessee, preached at the morning service at the Church of the Ascension yesterday. Bishop Gailor preached on the greed for money which possesses so many men nowadays and which, he said, he regards as a great growing evil which is menacing the church. He said that when once men became possessed of this hankerng for great wealth they overlook all obliga tions to the church and society and de- vote themselves body and soul to the accomplishment of thelr desire The speaker chose as his text Isaiah, sixth chapter, eighth verse.
 At 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon Bishop Gailor preached in St Thomas church upon invitation of the commit tee appointed by the diocesan conven- tion to bring about closer cooperation between the diocese and the board of missions.

OBITUA R Y.
penth of Mllllnm u. Nromson

"
 William H. Monson of this city died on Sunday in a New York hospital where he went three weeks ago for an operation. MT. Monson was well known and the news of his death was received with genuine regret by a large circle of friends. He was thirty-seven years of age and was associated in the carriage business with his father-in-law, Sam uel K. Page, at the factory formerly conducted by Henry Hale on Franklin street.
 For several years MT. Monson suf- fered from an abscess in the ear. He had undergone a previous operation Tn the hope of obtaining relief. but re- gently the abscess became more trou- blesome and he decided to have another operation performed. This time the surgeons found that the abscess had extended under the skull, which had become honeycombed and the brain seriously affected The operation did not prove success and immediately afterward blood poisoning set in and Mr. Monson's condition became critical, and rapidly grew worse until his death.
 Mir. Monson was formerly noted as a singer and was heard in several of the city churches, including St. Paurs and the First Baptist, when that society held it's religious services on Wooster Place. He also sang for some time at the Church of the Redeemer. He leaves a widow and three children.
 The funeral will take place this af- ternoon at ? o'clock from the residence of his father-in-law, s. K. Page, IA Humphrey street

VALUABLE PRESENT TO ENGIN-
 EERS.

Officials of Motive Power Department
 Air Brake Models
 At the regular meeting of Division IT, Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers yesterday, the division was made the recipient of a gift from the officers of the motive power department of the system. The gift, which was presented by J. l.. Andrews, air brake inspector of the Consolidated system, consists of a costly set of air brake and injector models, handsomely mounted on beautiful polished stand. The set con- triple valve and conductor. All are of brass, and the parts of each are sec tional, so that the innermost construc- tion as well as the workings of each may be noted.
 The gift is greatly appreciated by the members of the divisions. Aside from showing the friendly relations which exists between the engineers and the officers of the motive power de- partment, it is most valuable one to the division. Instruction in the mys- teries of the air brake system are given yearly to the engineers and firemen of the road by a corps of Westinghouse men, who travel over the system in a special car equipped with apparatus; but many of them do not have the time to study the apparatus as they would like. The gift just presented will therefore be a great convenience to them
