STEAMER N0RTHAh INJURED.
Ran Into the Drawbridge To-
 Day at New Haven.

None of the Passengers Hurt, All
 though Much Excitement Prevailed
 for a Time-Three Tugs Were Un-
 able to Draw the Northam From
 Where It Stuck When the Tide
 Went Out.
 New Haven, Conn, Oct 5-While approaching her dock this morning the steamer c. H. Northam of the New Haven steamboat line from New York fouled the Tomlnson drawbridge and was battered on a rock. Aflole was stove i'll her bow. She cannot be re- leased until the tide Ilses.
 The c. H. Northam left New York at midnight and arrived here at LAO. In trying to go alongside her wharf, which is close to thesdrawbridge she ran into the bridge With force enough to ram her way half through it until her bow crashed into an abutment. As the tide was falling, it was impos- sible to move her. although three Jugs came to her assistanee at once. A wresking tug was sent for all arrived this forenoon.
 None of the passengers were inJur-
 
 alarm when the boat struck.
 Many of the passengers were tum- bled out of their hunks and there was a little confusion, which was quickly subdued when the nature of the trou- ble was known. All were able to walk ashore by a gangplank stretched from the boat to the abutment of the bridge.
 The cause of the accident is said to have been the refusal of the engines to reverse. They had been stopped and the boat was moving under her own headway. When Captain Aaron Hardy found that the engine was not responding to his signal to reverse, he put the wheel hard bort and headed the vessel for the bridge abutment, preferring this course to a collision with q number of thgboats which lay beside the wharf.
 Some copper plates at the bow of the boat were pulled off by the contact with the abutment, 4but the Steamer is not leaking.

ON THE EVE OF ELECTION
DR HAYES IS A DEMOCRAT.
Will Support Ticket and Reports to
 Contrary Are False.

It was reported to-day that Dr Hayes had declared -.mself against the party with which he has always been identified, the democratic party. This was the most sensational incident of the day, and when the wiseacres of the party looked at the matter they decided it was one worthy of atten-- tion. The doctor was seen in his car riage by a Democrat man soon after the report reached official ears and was asked about it. There is not a word of truth in it,'' replied the doc tor, calmly, absolutely not word of truth he repeated. Whoever said | had declared myself against the party is mistaken. I was beaten at the pri- maries, but that is no reason why l should go back upon the party at the election. 1 am not that kind or Democrat. 1 have always voted the democratic ticket and 1 will vote it next Monday. That is all have to say on that matter; there is not a word of truth in the report, absolutely not one word of truth
 ,Nhe story of the circumstances that led to nominating Judge Cowell for mayor is .mOSt interesting one. In 8 word, it was to get him out of the way of George l.. Lilley for the senate- Among certain political circles it is we'll known that MT Lilley expects to be, and as far as circumstances at present allow is, a candidate for con gressman-at-large. Mir Brooker of Torrington and Ansonia, president of the Coe Brass company, one Of the largest concerns in the towns named, is also a candidate for congressman-a,- large If Mir Brooler insists upon get ting the nomination. MT Lilley must go way back and sit down. Now, 1t ought to be understood that MT Brook CT is not as anxious to go to Wash . ington as is Mir Lilley His business interests are so large that he has scarcely at the present time enough to attend to them. Consequently, were he ongressman-at-large he would have no time at all to give to them Rut if is said there is social ambluon in the family and that this is the handspring of his motive.

NEW BISHOPS.
Episcopal Convention at San Francisco
 May Select Five

May Select Five.
 San Francisco. Oct 5.-Fiye new
 bishops may be chosen at the present
 trlernial convention of the Episco@nl
 church. A bishop must be elected for
 the missionary diocese of Olympia, Ill
 the state of Washington, to take the
 place of Rev Dr Barker, who died rc- 4celtiy. Rev Dr Clampett is proIli- neutIy mentioned for this place. A b;shop must be elected for the misslon- ary diocese of North Dakota, to fake the place of the Right Rev Samuel c. Idsall, now bishop of Minnesota. A clergyman elevated to fill this bishop ric will more than likely be choscl from the Northwestern field.
 There will also be bishop provided for Porto Rico and another for tue Philippines. if not for both, probably one for the new insular groups.
 \ bishop may also be appointed tor Hawaii And here it is believed a western clergyman may be chosen, though the east may be the recruiting finid. The advisability of appointing a bishop for Hawaii will be one Of the critical questions and the principal problems of the convention.
 I'll addition to the discussion of cre- at:iig or filling some or all of these five | bisl.oprics by election at this conven- | tiolf, there are possibilities that the new missionary jurisdictions with mls- sicnary bishops may be created in the l United States. One will be in central l Illi.. ois. and the other a part of the |.statei of Indiana. The house of bishops has received petitions calling for divis- | ions of territory to create these two l jurisdictions. fi'1 4F e
