NEW HAVEN. BRAKEMAN KILLED
Was Victim of Peculiar Accident to Freight Train on Berkshire Division.

Was Victim of Peculiar Accident to New Milford. March 2O.A peculiar accident to freight train early this morning caused the death of a brake man, Joshua Hogancamp. residing at 6S6 Chapel street, New Haven, and blocked the tracks of the Berkshire di- vision of the New York New Haven and Hartford railroad at this station for six hours On account of the storm and high wind trains on the Berkshire division were late last night and freight No 14SS, north bound. which usually meets the southbound freight, No. 14S7, at Brookfield, was ordered to side track here and allow the train from the north to pass Both trains reached here at about o'clock, the down train waiting, while the other took the siding. Brake man Hogancamp, who was one of the crew of the northbound freight jumped from the train as it slowed up and ran
 
 ed the track in front of his engine, the train suddenly lurched forward and the brakeman vert under the driving wheels His head and one arm were cut off.
 The cause of the accident was later found to be the breaking of coupler near the middle of the train, allowing the train to divide into two sections. When the forward section stopped for the switch, the rear cars struck it with force sufficient to drive it ahead several feet, at the same time twisting two cars in the middle sidewise across the track The wreck of these two cars blocked all traffic until the arrival of a wrecker from New Haven, which clear ed the track about o'clock, after half an hours work.
 Hogancamp was forty-five years old He was married but had no children His body was taken to New Haven.

Always New Things
 at Malley's.'

We heard lady say that on Tuesday. She was speaking par ticularly of some new silks but her i remark would have applied with i equal truth to any department Of the ! store.
 We like to hear things like that. 1 It shows that our efforts to attain certain ideals are at least part way successful. We have high aims for this store. We shall tell ycu about some of them from time to time but the one wish to speak about today is this-We intend to make it rec ognized fact that it is A WASTE OF MONEY FOR NY NEW HAVEN WOMAN TO SHOP IN NEW YORK AS LONG As VALLEY $ IS OPEN
 We shall never be as large as some of the New York or Boston stores, but we can be. AND WE ARE, as close to fashions, as rigor ous in qualities as alert for newness and as true to the public demand, aa the best of them. On prices we can generally beat them all to pieces We have no quarter million dollars,rent to pay.
 For the proof ol this, both as to stocks and prices, come in and see the Spring assortments as they are opened here from day to day Come in and see the new Silk Waists and the Spring Suits, { day for exampe

WAR FOR TOBACCO TRADE.
Retort of the American Trust to the
 British

Retort of the American Trust to the
 British.
 London. March 2Q.-Ogden's Lim- ited), as the local representatives of the American Tobacco company, to-day gave notice of their intention to give their entire net profit and G200.ooo l yearly. for the next four years, as 2 bonus to their customers
 l This is the American combnation's s reply to the Imperial Tobacco com 1 pany's attempt to keep out the Ameri- can goods. In circular, Ogden's l Gimited) point out that the Imperial Tobacco company's offer to distribute bonus, amounting to G50,0O0. cannot be compared with the bonus the retail CTS will receive if they continue to trade with the American amalgana- tior
 The American Tobacco company's bonus scheme is the sensation of the day in the tobacco world of Great Brit ain. Unparalleled. 'stupendous, ;" amazing" are few of the adjectives applied to it. The anti-monopoIy role assumed by the American side has brought it the adherence of number of influential retailers who were oppos ed to the Imperial Tobacco companys boycotting scheme, and already one firm, owning many stores in the me- tropolis, has posted notices of it's re- fusal to exclude American goods, and of it's intention to discontinue selling Imperial brands.
 New York, March 20.-A recent cable dispatch to the Associated Press from London said that the Imperial Tobacco company, the British tobacco combina- ton, had issued a circular, offering large bonuses to it's customers, who would undertake not to sell American goods for term Of years.
 At the office of the American Tobacco company in this city it was said to-day that Ogden's of London had authority to make such an offer as that described in the dispatch without waiting for instructions from the Amercan offices. The company had received tO-day no direct notification of the proposition made by it's English representatives.
 Comment on the above dispatch in American trade circles to-day showed a good deal of incredulity. The propo- sition would amount not only to an eX- tra burden of s4000,000 on the Consoli- dated Tobacco company of America, which owns the Ogdens concern, but to a loss of all earning power for four years on the 5000, ,000 which it paid for that property. General belief was that the alleged proposition, if actually made, was a species of bluff, " since there could be no way for the English retailer to ascertain whether the Og- dens company had lived up to it's bar gain or not.
