DRY GOODS MEN DINE.
CELEBRAIE THE EARLY CLOSING
 MOVEMENT WITH BANQUET

Fine Spread by Mine Host Whitc-Pre 1 President HeaIy-specches and Song
 by Those Present.
 1 The members of the New Haven Dry | Goods association celebrated the early closing movement at the Tontine hote last night by a banquet. There was g large attendance of the members who
 sat down to an elegant spread set out
 in Mine Host George Whites best style
 Just before the members sat down
 message was dispatched to the popular
 president of the society, Colonel John G.
 Healy, requesting his attendance at the
 hotel on important business. On arriv-
 ing he was ushered in by Manager
 White. and it Is needless to say that the appearance of his co-workers in the so- ciety all seated around the tables was a genuine surprise to the colonel, who was welcomed by the toastmaster, MT. Cursor of the Edward Malley Co. After doing ample justice to the good things on the table cigars were lit, and Toast- master Cursor arose and in we'll de- livered speech proposed the health of their president Colonel Hcaly. They had met to honor the president for the splendid work he had done in bringing about the results which they had met to celebrate. To Colonel Healy's tact and indefatigable exertions ably back ed up by their treasurer, MT. Mustarde, their secretary, MT. Fogarty, and other members of the society, they owed their thanks for the results that had attend ed their efforts in inducing the leading merchants to close their stores on Mon- day evenings. MT. Cursor concluded by presenting Colonel Healy, in behalf of the members with magnificent solid silver loving cup Colonel Healy, who was taken quite abaclk at the handsome present set before him, in speech of some length reviewed the work that had been done by himself and the other of- flcers of the society fin bringing to successful issue the early closing noye- ment. They had not only accomplished that, he said, but had been able through the instrumentality of the association to bring together the reads of the vari- ous firms they represented, many of whom had never before come in contact with each other, and who were at the present time, like themselves, enjoying a sociable time in the same house (Cheers.) This, he contended, would be for the benefit of both employer and ernploye in the future. He concluded by thanking the members, one and all, for their unexpected gift Speeches of congratulatory nature were also made by James Mustarde, James Laften, M. Meaney, Messrs Mahoney, Lincoln, Sheridan, Bernstein, and others. Sever al vocal selections were also rendered, and a very happy evening was brought to close about 10 o'clock

BANKRUPTCY MATTERS.

Several bankruptcy matters of inn portance were disposed of by Referee
 Newton yesterday. The largest case was that of George H. Baker, the State street hardware dealer, whose examina- tion was scheduled for yesterday after noon. The creditors have given notice of an intention of contesting many of the larger claims contained in the schedule filed by the bankrupt. Rela- tives of Baker are creditors to the ex- tent of s6.OO0.
 It is understood that Baker wants to buy in the stock and resume business. Several other parties also want to buy the stock and the bidding that will fol-
 low will result to the advantage of the
 creditors of Baker. It was said yester- day that as a result of the desire of the
 different dealers to acquire the stock creditors will receive a dividend of about 50 per cent. When the petition
 was filed it was not thought the estate
 would pay half that.
 There were also filed for hearing the report of Deputy Clerk Carroll, of Hart ford, that w. c. Reynolds, of Norwich, and Louis Nathanson, of this city, were entitled to discharges on favorable re- ports of the referees, and motion to reopen judgment in the matter of Ed ward G.

THE WINSLOW HELPLESS.
Her Fresh Water Tank Begins To Leak Of
The Shores Of Maryland Torpedo
Boat Winslow Goes To
Har RaEaf


Seldom have crews OF naval vessels
reached the port of New York SO COM
pleiely exhausted as were the men on
the torpedo boats Gushing and Winslow
when they arrived at the Brooklyn navy
yard at o'clock Sunday afternoon.
The boats came from Norfolk, Va, on
their way TO join the North Atlantic
Squadron at Newport and Nantucket.
Lieutenant Douglas was in command.
with Lieutenant Stone in charge OF the
Winslow. Owing to leaks in her fresh
water tanks the Wlnslow found herself
helpless about o'clock Sunday NOM
ING when of the Eastern Shore OF Mary
land. She signaled to the Gushing.
Then the work Of making fast to the
helpless boat was begun in a sea that
was almost too rough for small boats.
The Winslow was tossing about on a lee
shore and it was at considerable risk the
Gushing was forced close to her so that
a line could be cast aboard. The feat
was accomplished in safety. The line
was made fast to the after coming tower.
Three times that night the towline broke.
Sunday morning Lieutenant Douglas dis
covered that he did not have water
enough on the Gushing to bring both
boats 10 port.
The lines were cast OFF and the Wins
low was sent on ahead under her own
steam, using salt water. which is inlu-
rious 10 the boilers. Both boats finally
got in without further accident. The
Winslow will remain at the Brooklyn
navy yard a week for repairs. The
Gushing resumed her journey today.

Communicated
THE MAYORS ADM0NITI0N TO THE
PATROLMEN.

MIR. Editor In the EVENING CAPI
TAI of Thursday last | read the Mayors
admonition TO the newly appointed police
officers. He starts of very well, especi-
ally the first and second paragraphs, but
! must take issue with him in the third
and fourth paragraphs concerning the
treatment by the police OF the ST. Johns
College students.
Why make distinction between them
and the young men OF our city 1t
would have a tendency TO encourage
lawlessness on the part OF the students,
which is disguised under the name OF
"boyish pranks. Are they children OF
tender years and skin II SO, would
suggest that the police be provided with
flannel club stuffed with lambs wool,
reserving the other club to teach our own
boys that "boyish pranks" are "viola-
tons Of law.
The present relations between the city
and St. Johns College are very pleasant
and it would be very unfortunate for both
it any line is TO be drawn. whereby col
lege students can set at defiance our laws
which our boys are co mpelled to respect.
Allow the police full discretion and they
and peasant alike, and without exceed
ing one iota OF their authority.
The students are sent to ST. John's S
College to be educated, where they are
expected to learn many things, among
which is the art OF behaving themselves
in law abiding manner, thereby reflect
ing credit on the institution they repre-
sent. as well as showing the good breed
ing they received at home before coming
here, but il they should so far forget
themselves as to act the hoodlum and try
10 prove that Annapolis is not the only
place that produces the ''yap," then they
should be brought up with a sharp turn
and taught that we give them welcome
and are willing to treat them well but thew
should not despise us and the authority
which makes Annapolis desirable place
to live in.
II that portion OF the Mayors admoni-
ton had been omitted il would have been
much better, although must say. think
il was all unnecessary, because the police
officers were carefully selected with a
due regard as to their fitness. They are
intelligent, brave and discreet men, and
can be depended upon TO exercise
good Judgment in an emergency with
out any admonition from anybody.
II it was really necessary in their case,
why not administer the same to the Board
| OF Aldermen and to the other officers, as
their duties are arduous, and at time:
perplexing.
| am satisfied the Mayor is conscien
tious in all he says and does. He prove:
it by his anxiety to give US model gov
eminent. He has always been a public
| spirited man, and viii always be found
worthy the confidence of the people who
placed him at the head of the city gov
ernment. There is no doubt on tha
point. Yet, as a law-abiding citizen o
| Annapolis, | cannot help feeling tha

a Sustaining Diet.

These are the enervating days, when,
as somebody has said, men drop by the
sunstroke, as if the Day OF + ire had
dawned. They are fraught with danger
to people whose systems are poorly sus-
tanned; and this leads us to say, in the
interest of the less robust OF our readers.
that the full effect of Hoods Sarsaparilla
is such as to suggest the propriety Of call
ing this medicine something besides
blood purifier and tonic,-say, a sustain
ing diet. Ii makes it much easier TO bear
the heat, assures refreshing sleep, and
will without any doubt avert much sick
ness at this time of year.

After the light showers of yesterday,
that scarcely "laid" the dust, the streets
have had an all-round thorough cleans

falling at half past two o'clock this morn
