 "Branford, Conn, Sept. 6, 1901.
 ITO the Editor of the Courier:
 Dear Sir: I noticed in an evening
 paper the statement that Henry c. Rowe had made an accusation and complaint against Messrs. D. O. Gruen- CT and H. c. Holcomb, and asked for warrants for their arrest for stealing sign from his grounds at Pine Or chard, and against Lewis Atwood of Waterbury, for receiving stolen goods.
 "Mr. Rowe has not accused or made
 
 as yet asked that any warrant should
 be issued. He has informed me of the theft of a sign from his grounds and
 have made inquiries concerning the
 perpetrators of the theft, as I am by
 law required to do. On such inquiry
 I have received certain information
 which T am not at present ready to di-
 vulge, except that MT. Rowe has been
 much annoyed for many weeks by the
 trespassing of the dog of MT. Gruener on his grounds and injury to his>shrub-
 bery by the dog; that MT. Rowe put up
 a sign several weeks ago politely re-
 questing owners of dogs to keep them off his grounds; that MT. Grueners dog
 was not kept off the grounds as re- quested and has continued daily to tres
 pass, and a picture of the dog under
 the sign was taken as a jest, and that
 under cover of the darkness of the first
 night the sign was stolen. Against
 whom complaint may be made or war rants may be issued am not now

NEW YORK, July 11.-Several thou sand people gathered at Madison square last night for the purpose of celebrating the announcement of Park Commissioner Clausen that on account of the opposi- ton manifested by the press and the pub lie of New York he had decided to annul the arrangement with Contractor Spate which provided for pay chairs in the parks. This decision to introduce pay chairs has been the cause of several riot ous demonstrations recently, and the re. tarn to free chairs was the occasion of 3 genuine jollifcation. One hundred and twenty-five policemen were necessary te keep the crowds in check, but the author ities pronounced it one of the best na- tured demonstrations ever held in the city. Fireworks, bands and addresses by local orators were feature.

WATERVILLE.
A Volunteer Fire Department Would

A Volunteer Fire Department Would
 Be Good Thing for Waterville.
 What is the matter with the resi- dents of Waterville? They are living in another age. They are behind the times. The very thought that such large and growing village as Water vile is has not a volunteer fire de- partment, hose house and the usual fire equipments, gives one heart fail- ure. Yes, Waterville should have a volunteer fire department, and should have had it long ago. If fire should start in one of the buildings on Main street and should gain any headway at all, the chances are the whole street would be wiped out. And so it would happen on any other street in the vil- lage where the houses are near each other. There is no doubt but that the majority of the residents are in favor of the organization and equipment of a volunteer fire department, and many agyoung man in this place would join such a company. There would be no lack of good members. Why, then,i is it that there is no attempt made to or ganiZe such a company, which would be of vast benefit to the village? For the reason that there is no one to lead
 
 cause some persons are fearful lest the movement should meet with failure, as similar one did about two and q half years ago. The project was broached by some person and it met with instant approval Meetings were held. enthusiasm ran high. The ma jority of the residents favored it. Plans and specifications of a building were sought. Wateryille was to keep up with the advance of progress; but, 2alns. the peoples ihopeS1 were blasted. The plans of the hose house were sub mitted, but just. because there was a hall on the upper floor of the building a number of people became opposed to tile movement. They thought that the boys were looking for good time. that they did not care for the safe guarding of the city. And accordingly the movement fell through, and most unfortunate was it's failure. Water vile. wake up from your lethargy fall into the line of progress; do some thing before most serious confiagra- ton will open your eyes to the fact that you are behind the times.
 A fair crowd was present at the strawberry festival at the Grace NJ. E. church last night. As usual there WIS a dainty repast. A delightful evening was spent by all present.

OUT DOOR SPEAKING.
Joseph Greiger of Ohio Gathered
 Large Audience About Him.

Large -AuuleuCc ADOuI
 Joseph Greiger of Ohio delivered an address as to strikes and how the work ing people have been voting in the past, at the corner of Bank and Grand streets last evening. The speaker, who spoke here under Socialistic auspices, is a young man. He is an interesting and forcible talker, possesses q good and clear voice and has knack of lm- parting in n clever manner his own opinions and views on subjects to oth- CTS. He was we'll conyersant with the subject of his discourse and his stlr- ring and pointed remarks and referenc- es to things labOr-wise, as they now stand were greeted with applause. He said. "Not until the la boring classes have representa- lives in the legislative and judi ciaI branches of our government. would the tyrannical policy of calling out the militia to quelI justifiable opposition to the encrOachment of trusts and gigan- tic corporations upon the rights of the Iaboring classes. be ended v Speaking of the public own ership of all manufacturing con- cerns. railroads. public franchises. otc. the speaker said if such men as Rock feller. Morgan. Vanderbilt and other multimiIliOnaires could roll so many millions for themselves. how much could the great body of labOrers roll for themselves? He did not blame the milIiOnaires but he blamed the laborers themselves. Rightly the secretary Of the Industrial commission of the Unit ed States remarks in his annual report that laborer in general can make enough in two and one half hours to support his own demands If that is the case. he works the other seven and one half hours for the boss and the manufacturer. The speaker referred to the number of socialistic members or rather labor representatives in the governing houses of Germany. France. Belgium. Italy and other European and Continental countries And then lie contrasted those facts with the condi- tions prevailing in the governing bod ies of our country. the senate and the house of representatives. In neithef-of these bodies i'll there q single-lafor rep resentative The thiee conditions re quired by q person iU occupy q seat in the senats. were as follows: He mast De d B<lNt b4a window and must be afflicted with golf He referred in a few words to the failure of the local machinists to gain a nine hour work day. blaming it to the greed of the capitalists. He said that the labOring classes had remedy for all their ills in the ballot boxes. That they possessed 13500.000 of the 16.OO0.OO0 votes of the country and that neither the democratic nor republican party represented 1aboring classes. The latter should vote for men of their own rank for representatives. mayors, etc. During his address. Mir Greiger chal- 1enged any man to refute any Of his statements and at the end be gave per mission to anyone to ask him any .ques- ton concerning the sOcialistic party and its principles. His address through out was most interesting and though be spoke for about an hour and half he had large audience at the end. At the conclusion of his speech. Mir Grci- ger was greeted with loud applause.

AT FOREST PARK.

The open air theater at Forest park was comfortably filled last night and the enthusiasm which greeted the per formance of the several people on the stage was only one of the many indica- tions of the excellence of the bill this week. The five acts of the show are much above the average and those who witness the performance are more than satisfied. Tonight will be amateur night and if any appear to give their act cash prizes will be given. To-mor- row night dancing will be begun in the pavilion under the direction of MT Kleinecke and the young people will have a spendid chance to enjoy them- selves ill this way.

AWARDED $5o
For the Death of a Relative Employed
 by Frank Miller & Go.


 For the Death of a Relative Employed
 by Frank Miller & Go.
 Judge Elmer of the superior court has awarded Giovanni Lumbardo, ad- ministrator, nominal damages of $50 in his case against the Frank Miller Coal company for the death of a relative. This case was tried at the last term or the court. The O'Neills appeared for the plaintiff and Burpee for the de fendant. Damages of 5000 were claimed. It was held that plaintiff s intestate was killed by the negligence of the defendant between two coal cars on May last, on the defendants premises. Contributory negligence was set up as defense. The courts mem orandum says that there was negli- gence to certain extent on the part of the defendant in maintaining sheds and posts so near the railroad tracks. Also that plaintiffs intestate was con- tributorily negligent in placing himself in a dangerous position and had no par ticular occasion to be in it at the time. It has been held in this state, continues the memorandum in q certain case, that plaintiffs negligence could not be contributory as he had not been warned of danger and had no reason to appre- bend any But it is equally true and has been so held by the highest authori- ties that if a servant, from any source has ill fact the same information as to danger of the situation as the master and acts in defiance of that knowledge, fhan f1a Iatfar cannot bo TnNda liahIn It appears that intestate had been warned of and was familiar with the danger.
