There is not now an electrical system

Railroad managers say ii is entirely
out of the question for the steam lines
TO attempt longer to compete with the
elevated and trolley roads for nearby
suburban business. Faster time has
been the only argument in favor of the
steam roads. but this is not always a

CLEAN HANDS, FIRST.
New York Judge Says Railroad Trust
Has No Standing.

Buffalo, n. Z, Aug 2S.-The applica-
ton of the Lackawanna company for
an injunction restraining 81 ticket
brokers doing business in Buffalo from
dealing in special Pan-American expo
sition tickets issued by that road, has
been denied by Judge Hazel of the
United States court. and the order
granted some time ago restraining such
sale during the argument Of the case
has been vacated. The court in the de-
cisiOn handed down today holds that
the railroad company has the right TO
make special contracts with individual
purchasers of tickets and that the pur-
chasers can not violate such contracts
by selling their tickets, and it also
overrules the point Of lack of 1urisdic-
ton raised by the defendants counsel
On the other hand, it denies the april
cation for an injunction because the
I.ackawanna is a member of the trunk
line association, know as the pool,
which combines to fix rates in violation
of the law. and therefore is not entitled
to redress in an equity court
THE complainant must therefore De

decision, and the injunction is va

Steamer Stuck Fast But Floated Off at
Half Tide.
The steamer c. II. Northam of the
New Haven line rammed the abutments
of Tomlinsons bridge, which runs at
early Saturday morning, while coming
into dock. The prov of the boat crash
ed half through the bridge, tearing
away planks and stone work.
The accident was caused by the fail
ure of the steamers engines to work.
The captain was in the pilot house
and the boat was proceeding at re-
duced speed preparatory to reversing
the engines. The captain rang for the
engines to reverse and though the call
was received in the engine room the en-
gineer was unable to make the machin-
cry respond. The collision resulted,
The boat was not damaged to any ex-
tent by the collision and was backed
out safely Saturday afternoon at $3.50
o'clock.
Freight handlers started at work i'm

Norman was unloaded Saturday night.
She will go out of commission at once
and will lay up at Heaton's wharf. The
freight which the Northam should have
taken to New York Saturday morning
was taken to New York by the Richard
Peck Saturday night.
To-day there will be a change of
boats on the New Haven line. The
steamer Chester W. Chaplin which has
been attending the international yacht
races will go upon the Norwich line,
taking the run of the steamer City of
Lowell, making her first trip out of
New London on that line on Tuesday
night at II o'clock. The Lowell will
be laid off for repairs. 1t is not yet
known by the steamboat officials what
run the Lowell will have during the
winter The steamer Richard Peck
will take the place of the Chaplin on
the New Haven line and the steamer
City of Lawrence will run during the
winter between this city and New
York as the morning boat.

road company, with a force of carpen-
tiers and piledriver commenced work

SERMON OF ENCOURAGEMENT
PREA CHED yesterday MORNING
IN RFPUBLYCAN HAIL.
Rev. DIR. Love Speaks Before the Mem
beers of the First Baptist Church.

Rev. DR.. Love, jr., of Asbury Park
was the preacher at the services of the
First Baptist church yesterday morn
ing and evening. The services were
held in Republican hall and there was
an unusually large attendance at both.
The text for the morning service was
taken from Exodus, 14.15, And the
Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore criest
thou unto Me? Speak unto the chill
dren of Israel that they go forward"
| The subject of the sermon was The
| Pilgrims Progress of Inspira tion," and
it was in four parts, all Of which were
most interesting. The fast part of the
| sermon Was on THE Crisis in the His
| tory of Ancient Israel" the second was
on THE Man for the Times, Moses"
and the third section of the sermon
!! was on "The Slough of Despond." The
conclusion of the sermon was entitled
"A Glorious Triumph"
Speaking of the work of the First
Baptist church, Rev. DR.. Love said that
the triumph Of this church was yet to
come He said that this church has
the opportunity of erecting a building
on the best site in New Haven, and
that it remained to be seen whether the
people would do it or not. He said that
a political hall was not the best place
to hold church meetings. but that a
start must be made somewhere and
that a political hall would do to start
in, for, he said, start to secure a
church must be made right away He
referred to church In Philadelphia
that started in a small room and in five
years grew to be the second largest |
Baptist place of worship in the world. |
Rev. DR. Love said that the future
would open to the people here just as it
has for people in Philadelphia and other
places, if they were loyal to Christ and |
to His call, and that in time the First |
Baptist church of New Haven would |
grow until it's good influence was felt |
not only in New Haven, but all over
the state, and then it would spread until |
it should be known throughout the
land. His sermon was one of great en-
couragement to the people of the church
and they will doubtless take hold with
themselves.
At the service last night the theme
of the sermon was THE Best Wishes in
Heaven"
Yesterday Mrs. George Hubbard, Of
West Haven, wife of the well known
gave an interesting talk on
her mission work in China and her two
in costume sang hymns in
Chinese. The service was largely at

II hereby corroborate H. A. Rispins
letter in Saturday mornings Journal
and Courier. He called on me stating
that he would bring DR.. w. r. Price
here as a benefit for Grace hospital.
As president of the hospital I arranged
for him to do so, thinking that it would
be greatly appreciated. AS there were
objections raised to the benefit by 9TH
ers | have, after a consultation with
Mr.. Rispin arranged with him to cancel
the contract to give the lectures for the
benefit of Grace hospital, but to give
them anyway.
II called on Mr.. Rispin Saturday
to deliver the lectures, and after having
had consultation with him and having
read number of highly complimentary
letters from leading college professors,
ministers and physicians throughout

On Foreign Mission Work at United
Church Chapel
We are so familiar with good Sunday
schools that we hardly realize how few
opportunities children of other coun-
tries have for getting good religious in
struction. But mission workers are
constantly establishing Sunday schools
in various large cities. Some extreme
ly interesting ones are in Nice, France
under the management of the McAll
mission. Mrs. Kelly Of Elizabeth, N. J.
is an enthusiastic McAll worker, and
has recently visited Nice, spending
much time in looking into these mis-
sion schools. She has also spent day
at one of the Paris stations of the same
mission and tells In most interesting
way of what she saw in both places
She is now visiting New Haven and
this afternoon at she will speak at the
United church chapel on Temple street
to all interested in McAll work, and in
the spread Of Sunday schools.
Members of any church and all Sun
day school workers are most cordially
invited to attend this service.

bers of the Zion German Lutheran
church, corner Davenport avenue and

business was transacted. President

meeting. A vote of thanks was passed
to all those who in any way contributed
or otherwise helped to beautify the

ton both inside and outside, including
putting in new cathedral windows. The

The work of the Yale football team
was greatly improved Saturday in the
game at the Yale field with Tufts col
lege, and showed the result of hard
coaching and playing during the week.
The men played faster, hit the line
harder and followed their interference
better than at any time this season,
and it gave the undergraduate and
coachers a good chance for encourage
ment. Yale won the game by the
score of 2e to S, the five points for Tufts
being touchdown scored by Chapman
after young Morris of this city muffed
punt in the last part of the second
half. Tufts was held for three downs
at the center Of the field, and Knight
kicked. Morris got under the ball, but
let it slip through his hands. Chapman
picked it UP and ran twenty yards down
the field for a touchdown. The run
