GRIFFITHS AGAIN VICTOR.
Wins the Grand American Hadtcap at
 Inantmato Targets.

lnautmato Targets.
 New York, July 1s.-Eugene c. Grif- fiths, of Pascoag, R. l., duplicated his victory in the Grand American handi- cap at live birds last April at Interstate Park, Long Island, by winning the Grand American handicap at inanimate targets from field of seventy six con- testants at the same place to-day.
 Grifflths took part in both contests last year. but was not in the money either time. Last year he stood at twenty yards in the target handicap, but did not get place in the first six teen. This year the handicap commit tee placed him at nineteen. yards, and after a splendid exhibition with the shotgun he beat all the others, breaking 95 out of 100 targets.
 F. V. Carlough, of Rutherford, N. J., shooting in the sixteen-yard mark, broke 93 and secured second money, while Charles Wagner, of Schenectady, N. r., broke 92 at distance of seven teen yards from the traps. w. R. Cros- by, of O'Fallon, H., was the only one of the four men on the twenty two-yard mark to finish in the front rank. He took thirteenth place, having missed thirteen targets On the whole, the conditions to-day were satisfactory, as the weather was clear and a good light breeze prevailed during the day.
 In the sweepstakes five were decided prior to the handicap, Crosby carrying off the honors, as he did not miss a sim gle target, making continuous run or S5 straight breaks. -
 The interstate tournament will con clude tomorrow with consolation handicap at 100 targets per man, pre- ceded by series of five sweepstake nnntaStS

Conspiracy to lntiraidate.

On complaint of State Attorney Will Hams Judge Shumway of the superior court yesterday afternoon, after the ad-
 journment of the criminal side of the
 court, issued bench warrant for a
 number of the Ansonia strikers who are charged in the warrants with con-
 spiracy to intimidate. Three of the
 warrants were served last evening by
 Sheriff Durham and deputies in Anso-
 mia, and there are more warrants to
 serve State Attorney Williams re- fused last night to say how many war rants had been issued, but 1t was learn ed on reliable authority that there were six The three men arrested last night are Stephen Charters, who is president of the board of aldermen in Ansonia, and a member of the Carpenters un-
 ion Jason Wright, president of the
 Machinsts' union, and M. F. Driscoll, president of the Painters union.
 Last Sunday evening a party of the strikers visited church at which a colored man named Valentine, who had SpI1p lU WOIh Ut Lllt dIlSl lOuuuI
 where the strike is on, was singing in
 the choir. The strikers induced Valen-
 tine not to continue at work at the
 foundry.
 It Is alleged that the strikers com pelled Valentine to promise not to go to work.
 The largest demonstration in the his-
 tory of the Machinists' strike in Anso- mia occurred there last night when 1t became known that the three labor leaders had been arrested on bench warrants were taken by the sheriffs to vacant office on Main street after the arrest to wait for the starting of the II o'clock train for New Haven. Long be- fore train time the streets were crowd ed with strikers and sympa thizers and when the officers led the men out to go
 to the depot crowd of several thou sand thronged about them. At the de- pot someone called for cheers, and in response shout after shout went up for the prisoners, mingled with misses for
 the sheriffs.
 As he boarded the train Charters
 drew from his pocket a small Ameri- can flag and waving it above his head cried Here's for shorter day" The action was received with the greatest excitement which did not subsde until the train left the station.
 State Attorney Williams said last night that the three men arrested all ready would be taken before the super for court at 10 o'clock this morning. Whether they would be put to plea then or what the procedure would be he refused to say.

This an- nouncement by Starting Judge Barnard was received with tumultuous huzzahs. The sun was Just setting as Cresceus skipped under the wire.
 The other events were drawn out and tire some and the big bunch of start CTS in each event proved unruly ones to get off.

Meta Arthur, who finished third in the last heat and just escaped being distanced by reason or change of drivers from Ruthford, who the talent thought was doing some believing, to Noble, took second money. Springdale won third money and Vic Sheller fourth.

Fosburgh, the young man charged with the shooting and killing of his sister, May L. Fosburgh, on August 20. 1900, may be said to be fairly started at the close of to-day's session.
 It was rather dull day for all, as there were none of the sensational de- velopments in the proceedings which are expected later on and the evidence, to which the most of the attention was given. was of purely technical char acter and was confined exclusively to descriptions of the Fosburgh house and contents, references to plans of the house and It's surroundings by City En- gineer Arthur A. Fobes, the govern ment's first witness. and testimony by the medical examiner of this district. The last witness of the day, Medical Examiner Paddock, proved interesting, principally because, as a result or ms testimony, the various articles men, tioned were examined by the juryment.
