NEW HAVEN MORNING JOURNAL AND COURIER FRIDAY JULY Iso

1 to the Rock were run every two ol three minutes but in the afternoon
 when the people made a dash for the cool sea breezes, the cars were run on
 the minute schedule part of the time
 and for several hours seventy cars were I run in fifty minutes. This necesS1tated
 a regular procession of trolley cars and
 as soon as they were loaded at the I Green they started for their destination
 and as their passengers piled out at the | Rock the cars went around the loop and headed for the city only to be refilled and emptied in the same manner. This was kept up all day long and it is
 rather remarkable that some one was
 not hurt in the scramble to get on and l off the cars. Favorable comments on ] the excellent way the crowd was han i died by the Fair Haven and Westville company were heard on all sides, for it was the biggest undertaking the
 company has ever had, and the tracks
 in the center of the city were not who'll
 ly perfected. The crews on the many cars were noticeably careful in the way | the passengers boarded and left the
 cars and considerable praise is due them.
 The heaviest pressure on the road was
 between and 8 o'clock last evening when over 200 cars were pulling on the supply of power and about 7:30 the Savin Rock cars were stalled for from five to eight minutes on account of brief suspension of power. The power was soon supplied, however and the procession of cars was able to move again. Between and o'clock was the time when the great majority of the people made a rush for the city and as result the company was forced to put on closed cars in order to &C., commodate the crowds.
 About 5000 of the people at the Rock yesterday were from out of town, and most of these came from Hartford and Waterbury. The brass workers of the latter city came to the Rock nearly two thousand strong and the Brooklyn (Waterbury) Athletic association one thousand more, and three large soci- cities came down from Hartford to spend the day at the popular resort. There were parties from many other places, but they were smaller than those from Waterbury and Hartford.
 This evening in the ball grounds at Savin Rock there will be q great dis play of fireworks and arrangements have bene made to have the celebration even more elaborate than the one on the central Green last evening Hun dreds of dollars worth of fireworks will be set off and the attraction will be vel worth going a long way to see. The fireworks will start at 9:15 prompt and the big grandstand will be open for all those who may want to view the display from 1t. Electric lights have been put in the grandstt;nd and the seats will all be free.

IMMENSE TROLLEY TRAVEL.

Estimated That Forty-five Thousand
 People Were at Savin Rock Yester-
 day.
 It has been estimated that 45 900 peo- pie were at Savin Rock yesterday and last evening, and if this was the case the record for passengers carried over the Winchester Avenue line for one day has been broken. Certain ti was that the crowds were enormous and notWith- standing the crush and hurry of the pleasure seekers no accidents of any consequence were reported as having taken place in the transportation of the great throng. The Fair Haven and Westville road handled the crowd in perfect shape both at this end and at the Savin Rock end of the line, and there was not a hitch in the running of the hundreds of cars that they put into service. In the morning the cars

THE BRANFORD RACES.
RIG 1TTENDANCE AT BRANFORD
 DRYING PARK YESTERDAY.
Many Ladies In inc Grand Sfnnd Three
 Races and Other Attractions.

The very large number of patrons at the Branford Driving park were fa- vored with agreeable weather yesterday afternoon which was conducive to the enjoyment of the elaborate programme l which the proprietor, L. A. Fisk, and his able secretary, Harry Cushman, 1 had provided at considerable cost. The special train of twelve cars was well filled with passengers which were landed safely at the Branford Driving park station, where horse cars were boarded for the delightful ride through fields, farms and forests, to the en- trance to the trotting park. The grand stand was filled to it's limit, about half of the occupants being ladies in such varied and attractive attire that the view from the judges stand and in field was very gratifying. pr. Ross, the starter, called for the 2:23 horses at an early hour and the track sport commenced. The other gentlemen in charge of the time and other details of the race were George T. White, William Nicely, Charles Bigelow, Samuel Hodgkinson, G. E. Os- born and F. l.. Newton The first race proved to be a long contest, as indi- cated by the following summary:

SHE KNEW THE REASON,

| A Woman Explains to the Lecturer
 Why England Treats Her Colonies | Well.
 | The University of Chicago has re- l sponded to the growing demand for
 more light on the problems of colonial
 government by engaging an expert to | spend two years in the far east for the purpose of studying the admins
 tration of Asiatic dependencies AL l leyne Ireland, whom the university | has commissioned to undertake this work, is a young Englishman who for l the last thirteen years has devoted 1 himself exclusively to the study of af- fairs colonial, ana is now regarded as an authority on tropical colonization. | Mr. Ireland's three years in the Uni | ted States have made him an ardent admirer of the American people, and, although his love for his native land is in no wise und!minished, no one would
 suspect on meeting him, that he is not a good American. As a matter of fact, he comes from Manchester, England, where his family were of prominence. Both MT Irelands parents were wri-
 ters, and the Carlyles, the Brownings
 and our own Emerson were among their close acquaintance.
 A students life is rarely an adven-
 turous one; but MT. Ireland's has been a striking exception. Not content with gleaning his knowledge in the seclusion of library alcoves, he has done his most significant work during an extended residence in tropical colonies. There Is scarcely corner of the civilized globe in which he has not pursued his inves- tigations. He has lived in India, Aus trala and West Indies and South America, and years ago he sailed before the mast from San Francisco around Cape Horn to Havre, from sheer love of adventure and of the sea. His mission in behalf of the University of Chicago will take him to Burmah, Siam, the Malay States, the Straits Settlements, Sumatra, Java, Borneo and Indo- Chi na
 During his stay in British Guiana MT. Ireland became interested in su- gar growing, and hired himself out as an overeeer on one of the great sugar estates. Here, with some hundreds of East Indian coolies under him, he had exceptional opportunities of studying the problems of tropical labor. During

 marks at Center Church-The Pro-
 grnmme at the Hyperion.
 The public exercises held yesterday forenoon in Center church and in the Hyperion theater in commemoration of the Fourth of July were not very large ly attended, the masses evidently pre- ferring the outdoor air to sitting within doors.
 The first exercises were those held in United church under the auspices of the Sons of the American Revolution and the Daughters of the American Revolution. These exercises began at 8:3O and Rev. Dr. Lines of St. Pauls church, chaplain of the Sons of the Amreican Revolution, presided and on the platform with him were seated Rev. Dr Levy of the Congregation Mishkan Israel and Rev. Dr. Leete of Dwight Place church.
 The exercises were brief, lasting only an hour and opened with the singing of the doxology and repeating of the Lords prayer by the audience, Rev, pr. Levy read from the Scriptures and prayer was offered by Rev. MT Rall, of Trinity Methodist church.
 Five minute addresses were made by Professor B. w. Bacon and by Rev. Dr. Leete, both speaking of the significance of the day and the fitness of it's celehra~ tion.
 Rev. Dr. Leete in the course of his remarks said that he often wondered if some of the money spent for powder oh the Fourth could not be spent in erect ing some permanent memorial to the men who were prominent in making possible the celebration of our independ- ence. He called attention to the fact that there were few statues adorning the parks of New Haven and said that he thought that we were little behind the old world in this respect and that New Haven was a little behind some other cities. Why shouldn't the statue of David Wooster stand some where in our parks? Why shouldn't

The town of Davos writes a Swiss
correspondent, is considering a bold
scheme for the abolition of all the or
binary forms of fuel. It is proposed to
erect an extensive electric plant at the
confluence of two large mountain tor
rents, whose united waters will supply
the necessary motive force. A large
firm of Swiss electricians has been
studying the problem for over a year,
and has obtained the concession of the
forces of the torrents alluded to. The
same firm has bought out new electric
heating and cooking apparatus espec.
tally designed for the scheme. The first
cost of the installation is estimated to
be S,500,000 francs. Already electricity
is not only used for lighting and mo-
tive power. but is adopted in many viii
