terbury Republican in a two page extra
 yesterday morning on the fire in speak
 ing of the arrival of the New Haven
 fire fighting party said:
 "The New Haven contingent was the
 first to arrive at the Bank street cross
 ing exactly at 11:20, and Admiral i Dewey could not have received a more tumultuous, vociferous ovation. The Elm City department was aided by
 hundreds of willing hands in the work Of unloading the steamer and hose cart which were quickly buckled onto horse of the local department Chief Fan cher, Lieutenant Barrows, with a force of ten men accompanied by w. J. Fahy, night editor of the Associated Press for Connecticut, made up the New Haven party"
 Chief Fancher and his men arrived in New Haven shortly after 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon tired out from this hard nights work. They worked increasingly for twelve hours and dur ing the night Mayor Kilduff of Water i bury sent out supply wagons with cof- fee and sandwiches to the men. Chief Fancher said that his men were in some very tight places, especially at the Scovil house fire. but none of them was injured. Since the Boston fire in 1872, the New Haven department has sent help to outside cities but twice. | Once the departmnet sent an engine to Milford and another to Shelton.
 Several New Haveners who had in- terests in Waterbury and who suffered losses through the fire, went to Water bury yesterday to look over the ground. Jacob Johnson and his son, Joseph Johnson of the firm of J. Johnson & Son and Joseph T. Whittelsey were among those who visited tie scene.
 They owned property on Bank street. Their losses were complete. MT. Whit telsey said last night that his loss was S20000, with no insurance. He said that yesterday he consulted architects and contractors with the view of put ting up a fine modern stone structure on the spot MT. Whittelsey's building was 133-139 Bank street and Mir. John sons No 105 Bank street. The latter was partially insured.
 M. Sonnenberg of NJ. Sonnenberg & Son has a branch of his store in Wa terbury and luckily the flames did not come within fifty feet of the store. The store is on Bank street and in the same block with number of those that were leveled.
 Mir. Nutting of Woolworth's five and ten cent store was congratulated yes- terday by number of Waterbury peo- pie who were in town. A branch is on Bank street and was not harmed by the flames. The fire burned all around the five and ten cent store and several times it was thought that it would go up but the efforts of the firen1en saved it. Jacob Kaiser, a cousin of Joseph Johnson, was the manager of the Driges & Smith Co.,. and he said the store was total loss.

Their Splendid Service at Waterbury's
 Fig Fire.

Chief Fancher with the New Haven
 firemen and the apparatus taken to
 Waterbury Sunday night returned to New Haven at 2:15 yesterday afternoon and by o'clock No. 2 engine and the hose wagon which were taken to Wa terbury were cleaned up and straight ened out ready for duty at No. 2's house on Artizan street. Only two New Haven. firemen were injured and their sprained his right ankle and was unable to be on duty last night Lieutenant Barrows caught a bad cold and sprain- ed his right wrist He also was off duty last night.
 The New Haven firemen acquitted themselves with great credit at the big fire. It was largely and almost entire ly due to their efforts that the fire from the Scovill house was prevented from spreading to and destroying the Hod son block adjoining the hotel, Chief Fancher directed the work of the fire men at this point and had his men posted III lue IlOuSOl DIOCh on ne sue next to the Scovill house pouring streams of water from windows of the block into the seething furnace into which the hotel had been converted and fighting back the tongues of flame which licked over the sides of the Hod- son block momentarily threatening to envelope the latter in fire. The crowd which stood on the park opposite the Scovill house thought that the block would certainly go and sevral times the wooden cornice did catch and at one time the interior of the block caught fire. But the New Haveners worked valiantly and hard in a very perlous position and put out the flames whenever they attacked the building.
 When finally the hotel was entirely and the Hodson block re- mained intact the onlooking crowds were generous in their well merited praise of the New Haven firemen who had done so we'll

LIVELY INTEREST IN
 A NEW FLOUR,

Perfection Flour" is coming in for a good share of attention thesd days. The makers conceived N,a luea of selecting pure wheat, Tor grinding into pure white Hour, to be freshly packed in conven- lent form for household use. They be- Heved tard rightly that housekeep- CTS would cather bake from flour a few days old than from flour several weeks old. They knew that this preference could be met, only by plan, such as IS now perfected. for grinding wheat into flour close to the home market They claim that trial of this new flour will fully justify the name it nears-"P Perfection Flour'-and they instruct retail grocers to hand back the money on every purchase that proves unsatisfactory.

JAPANEsE COMBINATION.

The Jill Shimpo has an article on the
necessity of an amalgamation among
the small Japanese ship-owners. There
is no doubt says our contemporary,
that the stupendous competition which
is now going on in shipping circles OF
the world will have its effect on the
japanese maritime trade sooner or later
The present number of Japanese mer-
chant vessels is S59 aggregating 53S, 900
tons. OF these 204, 700 tons belong TO the
Nippon Yusen Kaisha, &c. 600 tons to the
Osaka Shosen Kaisha and 49, 800 tons
to the Togo Kisen Kalsha. The
remainder-700 vessels aggregating
25O, OOOtons-b belong to the various small
shipOwners. Most OF these vessels en-
gage in coasting trade while some ply
between Japan and China, Korea, Hong
Kong, Hawaii and Russian territory
AS a whole the method OF carrying on
business by the vessels owned by the
small shipoWners is very irregular and
there Is no provision whatever made
against foreign competition. Moreover,
the competition IS carried on among
disadvantage. 1t Is advisable that
these men should effect an amalgama-
ton among themselves and establish a
company influential enough to with
stand and meet outside competition.
Unless something is done to CONSOLE

ALL HAVE A CHANCE
MANY LINES OF NAVY WORK
OPEN TO PUBLIC.
Captain Rodman Of Iroquois Ready to
Enlist People in Naval Service.
VIII Maintain High Standard

The establishment of an eniisting sta
ton at this port by the Navy Depart
ment is a measure of far more import
ance than is generally suppose /. Cap
tain Rodman the commander Of tile
tug IroquOis, is in charge of Jhi5
branch of the local work an7 he is an
xious that the community should un-
derstand the chance that is offered.
Persons have the choice of enlistinS
under almost any branch of labor. The
demands of the modern nd " cover
such a wide field that the general pub
lie hardly appreciates the variety Of
labor desired.
Following are the different branches
for which men and boys can enlist, sea-
men, ordinary seamen, apprentices,
landsmen for training, landsmen for
yeomen, machinists, first and second
class, shipwrights, shipwrights car
penters mates, electricians, tiremen,
coal passers, mess attendants third
class, baker second class, ships cooks
fourth class, landsmen for master ct
arms, plumbers and filters, copper
smiths blacksmiths and boiler makers.
Captain Rodman has permission to
enlist for vacancies at the local naval
station or else for positions for assign
ment elsewhere The naval transport
Solace is due within a few weeks and
those desiring to enlist will be sent on
her to Mare Island where they will be
assigned to regular positions
Captain Rodman says that he Is de-
sirous of securing good men and youths
No hoboes need apply he declares how
ever for he can tell one of this class as
far as he can see him. Enlistment will
not be as easy as many people think.
Only persons of good character and
standing will be accepted by the en-
listing officer The records of those APP
plying will be learned before they are
accepted. There is one particular point
on which Captain Rodman is DESTROYS
that the public should be enlightened.
This is that the enlistment of the
younger element is not for the purpose
of reforming unruly youths. Boys who
have been disobedient to their parents
and have shown themselves Indifferent
to parental discipline, need not apply
The subject of this enlistment is to
provide people with good training and
trades and not to reform incOrrigible
youths
Applications for enlistment can be
made at any time now to Captain rod
man at the naval station. This is the
first time that any such offer has been
made in this territory and X is the de-
sire of the local naval people to main
tain a high standard in the men and
bOVS enlisted

THE REPUBLICAN RALLY.

The speech of Senator Thurston at
the Orpheum on Saturday evening in
the interests of the Young Mems Re-
publican Club will not be interrupted
by translation. This is satisfactory to
the orator who is not used to the
method and feels, that such procedure
would be Likely to mar his climaxes and
break the thread of consecutive
thought Judge Wilcox has consented
to give a synoptical translation of the
speech in Hawaiian vernacular after
the speaker concludes. The judge will
not attempt a literal translation, but
will put into Hawaiian phrase and idea
the pith and essence of the grafton as
gathered by him while listening to Sen
ator Thurston.
