Copenhagen, Oct 22.-Negotiations have been reopened between the four protecting powers with regard to the independence of Crete. King George of Greece has long conferences on the subject with the czar and King Ed ward at Fredensberg, and the question is the principal object of his visit to Paris, from which city he will proceed to Vienna to discuss the matter.
 During his tour a year ago Prince George of Greece, (high commissioner of Crete), although unable to obtain any support of his proposal for the an nexation to the island of Greece, se- cured the adhesion of the powers to a scheme of independence. But, on his return to Crete he found that Russia was not ready to fulfill her promise; and now his father, who is regarded as a more astute diplomatist, has under taken to pave the way. and later Prince George will personally confer with the four powers concerned.

WATERBURY REPRESENTED,

Waterbury was we'll represented at the bi-centennial of Yale last night. Such scenes as were witnessed at the depot before the departures Of the trains for home were unequalled. It was about 10:30 o'clock when the to, ch light procession, the like of which was never seen before in the United States. crossed Church street at Crown street. While there was no difficulty in seeing the parade, the line of march was thronged, yet anyone who put S5 in reserved seat or $20 or S10 in win dow as good as threw it away. There was plenty of room. In the breaking away of the crowd at the point named, women were sucked into the whirlpool and many of them tainted, causing the greatest confusion and alarm 4 rush was then made to the depot and the streets. tending in that direction were black with moving people. It was about 1O:40 when the first of the crowd got there and those who did not in- mediately take seats in the dozen waiting trains for various points re- gretted it the whole night. for they were filled as if by magic. Tn a very short time the platforms were packed

 At length at 11:3O o'clock a train moved out; it was the first section of the train for Waterbury. but the ma Jority of people understood it to be bound for AnSOnia only. Twenty min utes later another rolled away so slow ly that people feared that something was wrong. About the middle of the steep grade just outside of New Haven the train stopped. moved back, the en- giner blew the whistle a few times and back the train went still feeling its way. Very few were aware that it was unable to take the steep grade and that the whistle was for assist ance. After a short wait the engine put out again, tugging through fear of getting left over and slowly crept it's way home, arriving here at 2:40 o'clock. Every car, any kind of an old car, was pressed into service. Cars that appeared to have not been used for many years on the Nausatuck branch of the Consolidated road were used last night. Many never saw the like before But their appearance made no difference had they been of the extension kind they would have been alright, but unfortunately rail road science has not been reduced to that point yet where a car can be pulled open like a dining room table to suit the number of guests. There is no railroad concern in the country that would have this new car sooner than the consolidated. It was about 4 o'clock when the last train reached here. its passengers sleepy, tired and twisted.

 Will Make a Test.
 New York, Oct Predetermined to disprove by actual tests, if possible, the declaration of Dr Koch, the emi- nent Berlin specialist, that human tG- berculosis and bovine tuberculosis are not intercommunicable, an important experiment will be begun to-day in Brooklyn. Dr George D. Barney and Dr Walter Lincoln, Bell will conduct the tests. Dr Barney. the prime mover in the matter, refused to accept as we'll founded Dr Koch's statement made before the international tuber- eulosis congress in London last August. Dr Koch at that time claimed that tu- bercular baccilli of COW could not inoculate human being, contrary to the accepted medical view of such con- ditions. Dr Barney said in an inter- view:
 "'If Dr Koch's statement be true, just consider how much money has been wasted and is still being wasted every day. 1 understand that the state of New York has already spent something like two million dollars in the destruction of cattle afflicted with tuberculosis. Immediately after l heard of Dr Koch's theory I deter mined to test it's soundness, as l am convinced that it is wrong. Selecting a cow and taking great care that she should be in the best of health, we have concluded to inoculate the animal with the human tubercular baccilli. This experiment will soon show conclu- sively the truth or falsity of Dr Koch $ proposition"
