TO LIMIT The INDEMNITY
THE UNITED STATES PROPOSES
CHINA PAY e4O,OOO,OOO.
A Cash Condition Attached-German
Officials Say Proposition Would Re-
quirc Heavy Scaling OF Different
Claims, but 1t is Practicable and Open
to Discussion.

10 Discussion.
Berlin, April 15.--It is officially con-
firmed here that the United States has
made proposition to the powers to fix
the total Chinese indemnity at e40,
100000, coupled with the condition that
the payment be made Immediately.
German officials point out that the
amount named would require a heavy
scaling of the different claims, but that
the proposition is practicable and open
to discussion owing to the clause re-
quiring cash payment. But, if it is con-
templated to divide the indemnity me-
Chemically, it is doubtful whether it will
be acceptable, since Russia says that
her government claims alone will
amount to G17,0o0,000.
The proposition would give Germany
35,0O0,00O, whereas the China expedi-
ton has already cost her 9120O0, 900.
The claims of Great Britain amount to
less than e50OO,OOO. Officials therefore
argue that the amount should be ap-
portioned according to the expenses
borne by the different powers. The
of the Associated Press
gets the impression that Germany is
ready to discuss the proposition in a
concillatory spirit, influenced by the be-
lief that China is unable to pay all the
claims demanded.

NO JUDGE PRESENT.
That Could Hear Case Against F. E.
 Robbins This Morning.


 There was no city court to-day. The only case to be disposed of was against Frank b. Robbins, president of the Robbins Forging, Blacksmithing and Horse Shoeing Go of Brown street, judge that could be found was Depu- ty Judge Peasley, and it developing that it was on his advice the alleged burglary was committed, he was con- sidered disqualified to hear the case, consequently it was put over to to-mor- row morning.
 Last week the above named concern was closed by an attachment served by Constable Carmody and issued by Attorney Bronson. After remaining in actual possession of the premises for some days the constable locked and sealed the door with large pad lock. He had previously left his re- turn for record with the town clerk. This last action Judge Peasley deemed sufficient to complete the attachment, and, furthermore, he deemed it illegal for the constable to put a paddock or any other kind of a lock on the door, for he thereby took possession of real, estate, according to Judge Peasley' $ views, which he had no legal right to do. To constitute burglary one must break into a place with intent to com- init crime. Judge Peasley says Mir Robbins had a legal right to the books of the concern and by taking posses sion of them, even though he burst in door to do so. he did not commit a crime. However, the matter will be decided tomorrow morning.

UNION RESCUE MISSION.

The Reports Show the Society Free
 From Debt and Money in Treasury.
 The members of the board of man. agement of the Union Rescue Mission held their semi-annual meeting in the parlors of the Second Congregational church last evening. President Arion A. Benedict presided and Rev MT Gardner, the secretary read the min lftes of the last meeting. Reports of the work of the Rescue mission for the past six months were read. The report of the first three months was read by President Arion A. Benedict, while Superintendent Knickerbocker read the report for the last three months.
 Both were very favorable. The mis- sion is free from debt and has some money in the treasury. Much good work has been accomplished during the six months. Superintendent Knickerbocker has been at the head of the mission for four months and has place.
 After the reading of the report, an attempt was made to elect officers for the ensuing term. Arion A. Benedict, who has been president for five years, positively declined a renomination. Three informal ballots were taken to elect his successor, but the vote was scattered among a number of candid ates. It was voted to elect a commit tee on nominations who would select an entire list of officers and hand in the list at the next meeting to be rati- fed. The following were chosen mem bers of the committee: A. c. Mintie, chairman; Rev Mir Gardner, O. B. Smith; Rev Dr Davenport. c. B. Woodruff. Mrs Bassett and Mrs John Lines. The committee will hold a meeting tonight at s o'clock at the residence of Rev Dr Davenport for the purpose of nominating an entire board of officers.

A MOTHERS CRIME.
Discovered as She Was Burying Her
 Baby Alive.

Baby Alive.
 New York, April 23.-In lonely ra-. vine half a mile north of Yonkers, where the woods are dense and Rol- ley's brook slips on in solitude, Patrick McEyoy, a laborer of Hastings village street department, discovered a young Italian girl yesterday burying alive her first born. She was crowding the wailing child into q narrow, shallow grave, stuffing shawl in the babes mouth to silence it's shrill appeal, ana stamping with nervous feet the lose clay she had heaped over the little one. Her babe was a boy, two weeks old. Behind the frail girl. whose red hair, wan face and feyerish eyes made a sharp contrast to the dingy black or her gown, stood a swarthy man with a big black mustache, a typical Sicilian of the peasant class.
 Staring at them as the man, catch ing up a branch to throw on fresh dug dirt, hurried the girl away, McEyoy heard a gasping cry come feeble and shrill from under the loose earth. He stopped in amaZement and laid his ear to the loosely piled clods. Again came the choking cry from beneath. He dug with his hands in the soft dirt until he unearthed a tiny baby, its limbs doubled 10 cramp IL III tue Suan AoAe' its face black with choking.
 He hastened with the little one to Hastings. where Mrs Barbara Bauer, matron of a Kindergarten, revived it.. An alarm was sent out for the two Italians, who were captured by the quick wit of Welsh, Q motorman, whose car they boarded when they yentured from the woods in an att tempt to get back to New York.
 Before Magistrate Tompkins in Hastings the man gave the name of Tivro Cuttacazallo, living in Eigh- teenth street, Manhattan. He said he was an uncle of the girl, whose name was Francesca Stinella of the same ad- dress. They denied the crime, the man stolid as the interpreter ques- toned them, the girl fierce. They de- nied simply and denied in the face or what seemed to be absolute identifica- ton and sure proof. Bewildered at the horrible strangeness of the crime, the police locked them up in the jail at White Plains to await the action of the grand jury.

BUSY tN RURAL DISTRICTS.
Ground Being Prepared for the Seeds
 Spring Planting in Order.

This is the season of the year when the thrifty husbandman can be seen in his garden in all parts of the town doing something with the spade or shovel, preparatory to putting in his spring crops. To be sure the rain- storm threw them into involuntary idleness the past few evenings, but in a day or two more the ground will be all right for spring planting and city folks who want to see a sight worth looking at should take q ramble into the rural districts and observe the movements of men and their wives and children hustling about in the rear of their residences getting things in shape for the coming of the beautiful May, whose warm sunny rays will send the seeds that have been depos- ited in the bosom of mother earth over ground to gladden. the hearts of all mankind and prompt the whole of us to reflect on the goodness of the bountiful Giver who, as the old farmer said, fixes things so that a time comes in each year when man, if he be not too lazy to turn up the soil, can make ample provision for the rainy day' Some of the women folks and quite a few of the dandy men consider them selves above this kind of business, and eXplaln Inelf cOnuucI Dy SCarlng that it is cheaper to buy things for the table than bother trying to raise them, but to the credit of the citizens of Wa terbury it ought to be said that it is hard to find a family who owns a gar den worth tilling that does not convert it into bower, of beauty during the summer months. If it produces noth- ing that one can eat it is made to yield an abundance of choice flowers which serve a good purpose for the young folks as long as they last and render the appearance of the residence much more cheerful than they would be without them. If the men neglect this duty the women take hold of it, and many of the latter can wrestle with a spade or a hoe to better advantage than their husbands, some of whom don't know how to turn hand outside the factory or office, but they are just the kind of people who have enough cheek to sit on the back steps and give instructions to their better halves, who probably have forgotten more about gardening than the fellows they are tied to ever knew or could learn if they tried. What would become of the men, any way, were it not for the efforts of the women folks?

some or the Streets in This Section ln
 Bad Condition.
 The attention of the selectmen is re- spectfully called to the condition of the streets in Mohawk park. At pres ent some of them are practically im- passable to teams, and it would not surprise those who live in that section to hear of an accident there any day. Edgewood park from Sylvan avenue to the residence of MT Hickey is in bad shape and the same thing might be said of Sylvan avenue at it's south erly end, near the Pearl Lakes road This is fast becoming an important public thoroughfare. The woods in that district are being cleared away and in short time there will not be a tree standing along the Pearl Lakes road to the new St Joseph's cemetery on the east side and to the lakes in the other direction. The presence of the trolley cars on the main roads have forced considerable travel onto the side streets so that it is nothing un- usual to see these roads crowded with teams and men and ladies astride the silent steeds. The country roads fur ther south all through Simonsville are i'll very good condition and there seems to be no reason why the highways leading to that district should be neg lected

BIG K. OF C. FAIR.
Opened With Much Enthusiasm il
 City Hall Last Night


 The big union fair of the local Knights of Columbus had a most aus picious opening in City hall last even ing. There was an immeIEe crowd in attendance and everybody entered into tHe festivitiea of the evening with gen 9ine enthusiasm. It augured well for fhe attendance and interest during the Eemainder of the week.
 Prior to the opening in City hall the local councils to the number of sever- al hundred, reinforced by some mem bers of Ojeda council of Naugatuck, made short parade through the prin- cipal streets, headed by the military band Although the weather was de cidedly unfayorable the paraders ap- peared to glow with enthusiasm, and they marched as though the evening was one of the pleaSantest in midsum- mer Mayor KiIduff opened the exer- cises in brief address, and Father Curtin also made brief address. Both speakers were loudly applauded. Can wasting. dancing and hustling for votes for the rival school principals were carried on all the evening, and 1t was nearly midnight when the exer- clses were brought to a close and the hall was cleared.
 The program for this evening calls for the appearance of Kelliher and Keefe, the merry drum majors, and James Coughlin, the clog dancer, will introduce some clever specialties. Mayme Daly. the blackfaee artist, will appear in specialties. There will also be dancing and can wasting. and it is expected that many of the lady, school teachers will be on hand to drum up votes for the diff ferent principals who are in the con test for a trip to the Pan-American exposition. Another large crowd is expected this evening, and arrange ments have been made to receive them.
 The opening of the fair was exceed ingly suspicious, and if the remain ing nights are as successful as the opening the fair will be the big sue cess that it's projectors have antici- pated.
