CITY NEWS.

The Misses Elizabeth Holahan, Alice Wolff and Albina La Prise are spend- ing two weeks at the shore.
 The colored people of Waterbury are going to enjoy an excursion tomorrow to Hanover park, Meriden. They will leave the Dublin street station at 9 o'clock, and the return trip will begin at z in the evening.
 The trolley car on the East Main street line which leaves the center at POT, had slight defect in its working apparatus and it had to be helped along by another car. Consequently there was a delay of about five minutes for the cars of the other lines which ar rived at Exchange place at 2;22.
 A representative of the Hastings Pavement Co was in town to-day and went over the a phalt paving on North Main street wit14 Mayor Kilduff. The gentleman could not agree with the mayor as to the amount of repairs that are needed there. He told | reporter of the Democrat that the city was ask ing entirely too much and that the conditions of the contract do not war rant the demands made upon the firm. It looks now as if there may be law about the question before 1t is settled.

CONTRASTING THE WILL.
Heirs of William Butler Do Not Like
 Provisions of VIII.

There was quite surprise in store for the widow of the late William But- Ter of North Elm street this morning when she appeared to be heard rela- tive to the probating of the will or her husband The will was drawn ln 1895 by Judge Lowe and witnessed by the judge, Annie Sake and the late John Sandom. 1t left all the personal property to his wife outright and the use during her life of all the real es- tate provided she remained unmar- ried. After her death the property was to be divided equally among their five children. Another condition add ed later cut off Julia and Frank, chil- dren by the deceased's first wife, from any part in the division of the prop erty. When the hearing was called this morning Attorney Carmody an nounced that he had been retained by Frank and Julia Butler to contest the probating of the will. The hearing was then adjourned until next Monday when all the witnesses to the instru- ment who are living will be heard. h. asmuch as Judge Lowe drew the will he will be disqualified from presiding at the hearing and Judge Etheridge Of Thomaston will hear the case.

AFTER ATT'Y GENERAL KNOX
  The Antitrust Leagne Wants His Opinion.

Attorney Knox Disclaims Connection
 at Any Time With the Carnegie Co
 Chairman Martin Asks Attorney
 Knox if He Will Offer a Reward
 for discriminating Evidence Against
 Trusts.
 Washington, Aug 21.-H. P. Mar tin, chairman of the. joint committee Of the American Antitrust league and District assembly 66, Knights of Labor, has made reply to the letter Of Attorney General Knox, sent to the committee yesterday. In his reply Mir Martin does not see any impropriety i'll having publicly addressed the chief prosecuting officer of the United States ill reference to grave violations of law, and points out that the attorney gen. erals disclaimer of official connection at any time with the Carnegie Go or the United States Steel corporation is much weakened by his admission of having been .'one of its legal advisers in its manufacturing business"
 In order to give the attorney general "an opportunity to reaSSure the people as to his desire and intention to ell- force the law against trusts" MT Mar tin asks if the attorney general will offer a reward for the production of the discriminating evidence asked for by the Antitrust league, and if he will institute proceedings looking to the ar rest and conviction of any person or corporation guilty of violating the fed eral statute against trusts

The Closing Games In the Tennis
 Tournament To-day.
 Newport, R. l., Aug 21.-The final struggle on the Casino tennis courts today, that between W. A. Larned and Beals c. Wright for the national championship, was begun under cloudy skies and with weather conditions rather threatening. The weather, how ever, failed to check the ardor of the immense crowd present. Both men had large following. and it was inn possible to say that either was the ia yorite.
 At three previous meetings this year Larned had carried off the hon ors. but only by the narrowest mar gin. It was expected today that he would play the dashing, risking game that he displayed against Ware, while Wright would try to wear off the edge of his attack by the steadiness of his game and then through for the win. as he had against Davis, Hobart and Lit tie
 It has been felt throughout the pres Wright would be the two to face each other.in the final contest. as they were unquestiOnably the best men now play ing the game. The winner will hold the gold cup fora year. as NJ. D. Whit man will not defend his championship
 Newport, Aug. 21.-W. A. Larned won the tennis match to-day from Mir Wright by the following scores: 6-2 6-3, GA. 6-4.

RICE WILL BE EATEN.
Secretary Stewart Says It Must Take
 Place of Potatoes and Cabbage.

Chicago, Aug 21.-Ethelbert stew, art. secretary of the economical foou bureau. who is gathering statistics Tor the government along the line of cheap food for the working classes, declares saws the Tribune, that the poor are facing a crisis that may alter their mode of life and force them to adopt substitutes for potatoes and such vege- tables as cabbage and beans
 Rice" Mir Stewart says, ls Dounu to become more and more popular, for its prices do not vary much and it's qualities are about the same as those of potatoes. This stringency is caus- ing the working classes to eat more soup and stew than ever before.
 Barley and rice, corn and homlny, are daily going into households that did not know them. A man cannot afford to use cabbage when it is ten cents head, and small one at that; Potatoes of the fancy grade reached $1.T5 a bushel yesterday. What poor man can use them?
 T have my report along this line about ready to send to Washington, and while I cannot make it public, 1t shows that this order is true through out the west and along most lines or vegetables and even fruit"

IN CRIB NO 3 NOW
six Men Were Drowned By Gas
 Explosion.
TWO MILES FROM CRIB NO 2

Where The Accident Occurred One
 Week Ago-Thirty Men On Board
 Vessel When Explosion Occurred
 Signalled All Night In Vain For As-
 sistance-Bodies of Victims Not Yet
 Recovered
 Cleveland, O., Aug 21.-Six men were drowned last night as the result of an explosion of gas in the tunnel leading from Water-works crib No 5, two miles from crib No 2, where the fatal accident of last Wednesday occurred.
 The work of sinking the shaft at crib No 5, which is five miles from shore. was completed yesterday. Six men were at once put to work digging a tunnel toward crob No 7. These men had been working only short time when a terrific explosion of gas oc- cured. The casing of the tunnel was crushed and a torrent of water from the lake rushed into the opening.
 The six men who were in the tunnel had not the slightest opportunity to es- cape and perished before assistance could reach them. Their bodies have not yet been recovered.
 The accident occurred early last night, but nothing was heard of 1t on shore until to-day. For some unex- plained reason no boats are kept at the cribs. Thirty men who were on the crib when the explosion took place spent the night vainly signaling for assistance. 1t was long after daylight before a tug reached them 1t is SUD- posed that the men in digging struck vein of gas which was ignited by q spark made by a workman's pick Heavy iron girders and machinery weighing over one hundred tons were forced out of the shaft by the explo- sion. The crib was wrecked.

The Bay To-Day.
 New York, Aug. 21.-Escorted by the Erin, the tender Porto Rico and the tug Lawrence, Shamrock II will go be- yond the Hook to-day if sails can be bent ill time to meet the Teutonic, on which her owner, Sir Thomas Lipton is a passenger. The liner may be de- layed on account of the fog, but if she is on time, it is not probable that the challenger will get away from her anchorage to-day.
 The steam yacht Priscilla with q number of prominent New York yacht men on board will also meet the Teutonic. 1t is proposed to give the Irish baronet a royal welcome. The plan is if possible to take Sir Thomas and his friends from the liner at quarantine. Should the Teutonic not arrive until night it is proposed to emphasize the welcome with a py- rnotechnic display to which carte blanche order has been given. Sir Thomas Lipton will be the guest of the Seawanhaka Corinthian yacht club on Saturday and will witness the races at Oyster bay.

THROWING ASCARE
Steel Men Say An Attempt Was made to fire Mongohela Works
THE STRIKERS DENY IT.

Thirty Strike Breakers at Wellsville
 Cause Uneasiness-Break at Carne-
 gie Mill Has Not Come Yet-Strikers
 Trying to Get Clark Mill Under
 Control Which is Being Run by Non
 Union Men.
 Pittsburg. Aug. 21.-The strike situ- ation was not materially changed to- day. The strikers haye not celled any men out and none of the plans of the manufacturers for additional resump- tfons with non-union men have ma tured. The feeling Of irritatition at WeIIsyille has been increased by the appointment of thirty strike breakers as special officers to guard the plant of the American Sheet Steel company and the police here have had to dis perse noisy crowds at the recently tied up tube plants, but there has been no serious trouble at any point. It Is claimed that an attempt was made last evening to fire the Mongahela works of the American Tin Plate Co and the police have been called into the case to run the supposed incen- diary down. According to the story told by John Schuster, general labor boss of the plant, a pressure guage was knocked off off an eight-inch gas main aGd burning paper thrown into tine place with the idea of destroying it with an explosion and fire. He says he plugged the break before the brand was thrown and saved the works. The strikers indignantly deny that they had anything to do with any plot to wreck the plant and are in- clined to discredit the story entirely.
 The promised break in the Carnegie properties has not yet come. As far as outward appearances go. the lower union mill in this city has not been affected but the strikers insist that they have seriously impaired it. The strike leaders are trying hard to gain a foothold in the Clark mill which is running with non-uniOn men, but that property too, seems to be running at practically full capacity.
 It is quieter at Duquesne, but the fight for supremacy there is by no means over.
 Veryl Preston. of the United States Steel corporation. was in the city again today and conferred with the officials of the Carnegie company. He and the other officials are still silent as to their plans. The somewhat shop worn rumor of peace has again been revived but the mildest suggestion of 1t at authoritative places produces long and positive denials.
