This action was taken at meeting
of the merchants Of the city held in the
Tontine hotel yesterday morning, all Of
the eleven stores named above being
represented at the meeting. The point
gained at yesterdays meeting was one
that some of the merchants have been
aiming at for long time and would
have accomplished before had it not
been for the holding out Of few of
the firms. The meeting was very
harmonious one and the vote to close
on Monday was unanimous one. All
of the firms represented had word to
say on the matter and it was agreed
that it was time to reach some conclu-
sion in the matter.
New Haven is about the only city in
New England where dry goods stores
kept "open house" on Monday night
and the move taken yesterday Is
thought to be a thoroughly up to date
one.

giv-n of Anthony Hopes great romance,
THE Prisoner of Zenda," which will be

ceptable presentation of Prince Rudolph
in the prologue and King Rudolph and
Rudolph Rassendyl in the play. Will
liam Clifford, the Black Michael Of the
piece, is also remembered here, as is
also William Colvin who played the ar
tist w. D. Collins did some very eff
fective work as the dashing old soldier,
Colonel Sapt and Joseph Selman show
ed excellent taste in his portrayal Of
the Earl Of Rassendyll in the prologue
and Fritz in the play. Miss Alice Tay-
lor made a sweet, confiding, brave and
womanly Flavia, and Eugene Dubois

lively on the sympathies of the audi

Lost River" a new play by Joseph
Arthur, author of BLUE Jeans 1.-THE
Still Alarm and other popular sensa-
tionaI melodramas, will be presented in
this city at the Grand opera house next
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, with
matinee Wednesday. Mr.. Arthurs
Lost River" far surpasses his Blue
Jeans" and 1.-THE Still Alarm" great
popular favorites as they were in thrill
ing sensations, all of them up to date
In the first act Of Lost River there
is, besides bucolic scene of realism in
an Indiana boarding house. an attempt
to murder the hero, Robert Blessing. by
one of the villains, Bill Loucks, and
rescue of the former and a timely
wounding of the latter by the heroine.
Ora, while all three are participating in
a bicycle race along the river towpath.
The thing is made effective by rap
idly moving picket fence in the fashion
of the racing scenes in 1.-THE County
Fair and Ben Hur." In the second
act the realistic features are the arrival
of the heroine at dance in a country
farm wagon, the performances of a typ
zeal country orchestra, in which Co.'S
tuning, makeup and the playing of the
Instruments while the actors take part
in the country dances are funny, and,
finally, as climax, the holding off of a
mob of workmen while armed only with
a fire axe by the hero that this mob had
attacked because their pay was over
due The third act brings more of the !
bucolic in the appearance of drove of
sheep, driven by a quartette of musical
who stand and sing to the
audience while the sheep wander on.
There is another rescue of the heroine |
by the hero at a closed toll-gate, where |
the latter, mounted on a horse, was to
have been held up and robbed by cou-

NO ANGLO GERMAN ALLIANCE.

Press Comment in Berlin on the EN-
perors Visit to England.
Berlin, Feb. 1.-The Vossiche- Zeitung
editorially says in reviewing Emperor
Williams visit to England:
"The German emperor, even if Brit
ish field marshal, will make no other
politics but German, and serve no 9TH
er interests but German. An offensive
and defensive alliance between the two
countries belongs to-day, as heretofore,
purely to the domain of Imagination.
Nor is there cause for such an alliance,
and neither the Germans nor the Eng.
fish desire it, 1t Is impossible, for each
of the two countries has too many in
terests which the other cannot defend
nor be identified with. But these diff
ferences of interests are not such that
England and Germany could not live in
the best entente. To promote this en-
tente will be pleasant task for the en-
peror, and if the British press finds that
William Ills conduct forces their coun~
trymen to sympathy, respect and graft
tude. we, on our side, can only express
the hope that the policy of the cabinet
of st. James, will always agree with
these sentiments. When tomorrow Vic
toria finds her last resting place the
German nation will feel for the English
peoples mourning and hope that the
friendship of William II. and Edward
VII. may be a good representation for
good and permanent friendship between
the two great nations of similar blood,
a friendship based upon mutual respect
and mutual independence for the gond
of peace and civilization"

1t is my opinion that with good roads

there are a great many drawbacks which
make progress here very slow. In the
first case the very high steamer charges
make II almost impossible to grow any
thing profitably, although things grow
here certainly as luxuriantly and abund-
antly as anywhere else; second, by the
commissions and profits which the Homo

of 20 per cent, and they do not work at
less than 100 to 200 per cent. For In

If the United States Government would

right direction II would also be neces-

as now, where people are compelled TO

twenty-four hours, the loss of time, and
in consequence money. preventing farm
ers here from sending things to Homo

tremendous loss of their time.
Another thing which would greatly
help to develop this district and the
