LOSS OF A FINGER.
What Effect Has It On a Good
 MachiniSt.
FITzGERALD'S SUITFORSfo,O0o

Brought Out Statement That Man
 Can Be a Good Mechanic Minus
 Some of His Fingers-AIr Brennan
 Says He Knew Machinist Who
 Had Lost Two Fingers and Was
 Still Capital Workman
 The value of the little finger to | man engaged at machinery or hand- ling machine making tools was tic principal point discussed ill the two suits of Timothy and John Fitzgerald, father and son respectively, against the Connecticut Railway and Lighting company, which began i'll the superior court yesterday morning before Judgt George w. Wheeler Tine plaintiffs claim $10,O00 and allege negligence on the part of the defendant in leaving electric wires running across inc Washington street bridge exposed and therefore the wire came in contact with the iron work of the bridge and severely injured the boy while he was playing tag there with other boys. Among the other injuries he is said to have received is that the fingers of his right hand are permanently maimed.
 President Martin H. Brennan of the E. J. Manvlle Machine company, was called by the defense to show the val ue of the little finger to a machinist engaged in the pursuit of his calling. MT Brennan said that he had been eighteen years president of the con- pany named. and during that time be saw no reason for obiecting to employ ing. even at the highest skilled labor done by the company. a man so malmed as the plaintiff John is He saw no reason why such man should not make q capable machinist. Then he named the various grades of ma chinistS. He said it is not uncommon for man who has lost the last two fingers of the right hand to make il first class machinist and earn first class wages. Young men so maimed frequently apply to be engaged as ap- prentices and if there was a vacancy he had no objection to taking them on
 Under cross-eXamination by Attor- ney O'Neill he admitted that of course the loss of any finger to man engaged in any occupation would somewhat interfere with his power of gripping . hammer, for instance. vet he knew of machinist named Bronson who had | lost the last two fingers of his right | hand and -he was capital machinist.
 MT Brennan had to let him go with re- gret because another concern engaged !, him at higher wages. During his ! eighteen years as president and mana ger he could not recall an applicant | for work under him who had lost his l little finger or any finger. nor could
 he name any workman he had had l who was so maimed.
 The evidence was all put in short | ly after dinner to-day and tiie aren- l ments were immediately begun, At | tornev Kennedy opening for the Fitz- | geralds. Attorney Bronson followed | for the Lighting company.

FIR LENDS OF ANDREW WINTER
Anxious to Hear from Him Injured
 While Going to Hamburg.

The friends and family of Andrew Winter of 429 North Main street are anxious about him. On September 12 last Mir Winter sailed for Hamburg, Germany. and arrived at that place on September 20. 1t appears that one of his first acts upon arriving was to write. informing his family that on the last day of the trip he met with an ac- cident on board ship which necessitat- ed his going to a hospital MT Win ter was member of the local post of the G. A. R., and lost leg i'll the civil war, and his family fear that the acci- dent which befell him was the result of his inability to keep his feet during the rough passage into the harbor of Hamburg Since the receipt of the postal his family have written three times. both to MT Winter himself and to the hospital authorities under whose care he was supposed to be, bat not a word has been received from either. Hence their anxiety about him.

NAVAL PAGEANT.
in Honor of Return of Duke and
 Duchess of York


 Portsmouth. Eng, Nov 1.-To-day naval pageant in honor of the return of the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and York was almost q reproduction of the ceremonial attending their de Darture The town and harbor were astir early, immense crowds assem- bling along the sea front, and rounds of cheers mingling with the national anthem and salutes from the hafbof ships and land batteries as the royal yacht Victoria and Albert started to meet the Ophir. On board the royal yacht the king. i'll the undress uniform of an admiral, stood on the after bridge at the salute, while the queen and the children of the duke and duchess paraded the hurricane deck.
 The roads presented a striking spec tacle owing to the great gathering of warships, dressed from stem to stern, and with their yards manned and their sides lined with their crews. Nelson's old flagship, the Victory, started the salute to their ma jesties, and each ship in turn took 1t up as the Victoria and Albert moved down the Solent, accompanied by q fiotilla of older yachts.

 LONDON, Nov 1.--John Morley, M. P, addressing his constituents at Ar broath, said:
 '.The government is aggrayatlng the essential mischief of the situation in South Africa by it's management of the concentration camps. The death rate of children, measure it as you will, is hideous. excessive and appalling. The policy of. devastation has been admit ted to be mistake.
 1T wonder what Lord Palmerston would have said of a government justi- flying itself by saying that Russia in Poland and Austria i'll Bosnia had done something like the same. The war has entirely changed in character and is drifting into war of extermination of a people fighting for their own land.
 ''The policy of unconditional surren- Ger and submission means extermina- tion and annfhilation. The present at titude of the government is one of sul- len desperation. There is nothing worse than mettle in blind horse.

Patching Up Walls and Powers

 PEKING, Nov. 1.-The repairs to the walls, towers and palace have been al- most completed. A temporary structure of wood and cloth has been erected in place of the destroyed Chiennen tower, under which Emperor Kwang Su will pass when entering the Forbidden City. It is painted to resemble the old stone tower, with cannon in the windows, and looks like piece of theatrical scenery.
 Every effort is being made to conceal from the court the evidence of con quest. The British loopholed the wall at the station outside Chiennen gate, and the Chinese are now building an- other wall outside this to screen it from the view of the court.
