If there was fraud and ballot box
stufing in the local campaign OF '96-
as charged in the letter of withdrawal
of Fannie Dunn-it is quite refreshing
to now read in the organ of the one
charged at the time by the friends and
co-workers of that young lady as being
one of the arch conspirators, declara-
tions in favor of an honest ballot and
an honest count" and that "the day
of victory by fraud is about passed in
the capital city" Shades of Moffet
observe the millennium approaching! .

: DUKE DISAPPOINTED THEM.
A Party of Bridgeporters Went Out to
Meet Him Last Evening

Bridgeport, Sept 5.-Grand Duke
Boris of Russia did not arrive in this
city Yesterday as was expected. News
had been received by the harbor mas
ter to prepare dockage for the yacht
Sylph, -whfch was to bring the duke
from Oyster Bay to this city, where
he was to have boarded the 6:1S train
for Newport to be the guest of the
summer colony at that place.
Captain George E. Whitney of the
Locomobile Co of America and owner
of the steam yacht Montauk, kindly
rendered the use of his boat to the
harbor master to meet the Sylph and
escort her to this city. The Montauk
left the float at the lower bridge at
4:15 p. M, and had aboard besides the
harbor master, Collector of Customs
Frank j. Naramore, Colonel T. B. War
rem, Captain Charles Lewis, Commo-
dore William A. Lewis, Captain George
Potter, Captain Frank Potter, William
Hickey, Charles Phillips, Thomas Cor
man and Peter Daily of Detroit, Mich,
representatives of the local press.
The yacht steamed out as far as the
battle-ground light, and at this point
made out a steam yacht apparently
heading for New Haven. It was at
first thought that the vessel would
turn about and make for this port, but
it did not. The yacht, as far as could
be Seen, had the lines of the SyIph, and
as the latter did not show up at this
port it is thought that the duke
changed his plans and would board the
train at New Haven instead.
The party spent the time inspecting
the Montauk The boat contains a
135 horse power compound engine and
can easily make II knots an hour. The
engine room is rooIny and the engine
Is a model The entire room of the
engine and boiler is only feet 10 inch
es. The engine was designed and
btiTf by the owner at Boston, Mass.
He had previously been in the business
and built SO steam yachts. The Mon
tauk was built after his own ideas The
boat was brought to this city last May
by Captain Whitney Mr. and Mrs
Whitney live on the. yacht during the
summer.
The grand duke and party left Oys-
ter Bay at 3.30. on the yacht Eelecia.

MAN KILLED In NEW BRITAIN
Brought Here To-Day and Taken to
Home of His Sister.

The remains of James Nagle, who
was killed at the New Britain Gas COM
pany's works yesterday were brought
TO this city to-day in charge of Under
taker Mulville and taken to the resi-
dence of his sister, Mrs Joseph Smith
OF 81 Maple street. Mr. Nagle was
Killed by coming In contact with the
FEEDER rail and an outside rail of the
third rail system of the Consolidated
road. Nagle was at work unloading
coal from car at a siding at the
Gas company's plant, a short distance
south of the Peck street crossing Of
the road He climbed down from the
car and started to cross the track be-
tween which the third rail lies. He
stepped on one of the outer rails and
slipped, this threw him across the
third rail and he was touching both
rails the circuit was complete. The
only mark visible on the body was
small round hole in his throat. While
it Is believed that death was instan-
taneous, those who saw the accident
say that the struggles of Nagle were
fearful to behold. While he was
still writhing companions removed his
body from the dangerous rail- The
men who did this took positions on
the wooden ties. which acted as in
sulators, and dragged the body away.
For some minutes it was believed
there was life remaining in the body
and several men began to work over
it but soon the muscles relaxed and
they then realized that Nagle was
dead.
The deceased wa ..rg near the
shadow of the cliff Of Moher, in
county Glare, Ireland, about 26 years
ago and came to the United States in
1898 He lived most of the time In
Waterbury and Naugatuck, but re-
Gently he went to work In New Brit
ain. His friends were located through
a letter from an acquaintance in
Naugatuck which was found In his
pocket. He is survived by his faith
er, John Nagle, brother, Thomas,
and two sisters, Ellen and Katie, who
reside In Ireland, brother, Patrick,
and two sisters, Mrs A. J. Mcmahon
and Ms Joseph Smith Of this city.
He was man Of powerful build and
was In the best of health and spirits
when he met with the accident. The
funeral notice will appear later.

Woke UP SH|VER|KG
Riflemen Encamped at Sea
Girt Need Overcoats.

Firing in the Leech Cup Match Was
Commenced This Morning There
Are Three Prizes and This is the
First Time the Match Has Been Shot
in twenty Years.
Sea Girt, N. j., Sept 5.--The expert
|rifiemen of the United States, who are
encamped here, awoke this morning
|shivering. The weather grew decid-
edly cooler during the night and at
reyelle overcoats would have
been comfortable, although the
change in the temperature was not
amiss, however, because the skirmish
team match was scheduled as the first
event OF the day.
The moving up and down the range
at brisk run suiAced to warm up the
men. That this is the last day but
one of the interstate shooting tourna-
ment and the fact that the skirmish
team match was the most spectacular
occurrence OF the week on the range,
combined to attract large number of
spectators.
The competition was open to teams
of six men from the reg<menta1, bat
talon and separate company organiza-
Tions of the organized militia and ma
val reserve Of the United States and
the United States army. navy and ma
rine corps.
Organizations were allowed to enter
more than one team each, but no COM
petitor was allowed to shoot on more
than one team. The group silhouette
target was used. The first prize is
an elaborate hall clock valued at $3.50
and the second prize S25. The en-
tries included the following organiza-
tions:
Seventh New York; e. S. marine corps
tsecond team: United States army !;
Twelfth New York; First regiment
District of Columbia, which won the
match last year; Second regiment, Dis
trict of Columbia; Second Pennsylvan-
ia and the Fifth Maryland.
Firing in the Leech cup match was
begun to-day. 1t was open to every
body, the distance being 800, 900 and
1000 yards, five shots at each distance.
The rules permit the use OF any rifle
and any ammunition. The first prize
IS the Leech cup, to be held by the
winner during the year, and a gold
badge. The second prize is S25 and
the third prize $40. The match has
not been shot since the year 1880. The
first departures among the rams of
the riflemen We're noted today, those
starting for home being the Massa-
chusetts and Maryland defachments.

Legislature Refused to Allow Water
bury to Build Conduits Through Lts
Streets-AIl Up. to Date Cities are
Now Putting Wires Under Ground
and Doing Away With Polea
In common with many other places
all over Connecticut, Naugatuck has
grown tired of the number of poles
and wires that occupy places along
it's public ways and has decided that
1t is high time the wires were put
underground. 1t is understood that
the order will apply to trolley, tele-
phone, telegraph and all other wires.
The borough will not, it is said. build
conduits and rent them to the owners,
as New, Britain has done and Water
bury tried to do, but was blocked by
legislation at Hartford, the intention
to simply take advantage OF Section
1905 of the General Statutes, passed
in 1887, giving towns and cities the
power to order private corporations
to locate their wires underground
whenever they SO desired. This, OF
course, is subject to an appeal to the
courts The Southern New England
Telephone Co has an application be-
bury for permission to construct con-
duits In the public streets, but SO far
as can be learned 1T is not the inten-
tion to remove any great number of
wires now on poles Many think that
'if the application be granted 1t should
be on condition that all wires, no mat
ter to whom they belong. shall be
placed in the conduits. The city was
anxious to go into this business itself
but there is too much money In it,
and the corporations sQueiched the
proposition at Hartford. The cor
porations performed a similar opera
ton on the city's application for per-
mission to install and operate an
electric lighting plant. Those meas
ures If passed, would have put Wa
terbury In a position to get what rev.
enue there is In the business and thus
realize something which could be used
for public improvements instead OF
looking to rate payers for every dol
lar raised to meet current expenfes.
When these and other things that
might be mentioned are looked into,
probably nobody will wonder why
people who own real estate are taxed
so heavily. The factories manufac-
ture their own electricity without any
interference Ou lie par VI LILO f7teN~N<

One Man Hires Extra Trucks to Cart
Away Fruit.


Away Fruit
Southington, Sept 5.-Work Of har-
vesting the peach crop is now well un-
der way, and the Work of marketing
the fruit entails larger expense than
people have any idea of. Martin
Frisbie is disposing of a large part of
his crop in Boston. The fruit is TAX
en- to Plainville, where refrigerator
cars have been equipped with racks
SO that the fruit may be carried with
out bruising. Next there is the ex-
pense of icing the car. Mr. Frisbie
has found it necessary to go to New
Britain to hire trucks to cart the fruit
the four miles or more from his orch
ards to Plainvi1le.
Other growers who ship by rail have
a similar story to tell. Most of the
Shuttle Meadow growers are shipping
to Boston this season. A representa-
tive of one of the largest of that city's
commission houses was here yesterday
for the purpose of contracting for the
whole of Southington's unsold crop.
He said that the fruit is excellent and
that he cannot buy enough.

POWER BRAKES FOR CARS.
Mr. Seymour Tells What the Railroad
Commissioners Require.

Commissioners Require.
Hartford, Sept 5.--Williatn o. Sey-
mour, member of the board OF railroad
commissioners, discussed an article in
one of the state papers yesterday in
which it was suggested that the rail-
road commissioners should order pow
er brakes on all trolley cars, as the
railroad commissioners OF Massachu-
setts have done. Mr. Seymour said
cannot understand how anyone
claiming to be at all familiar with
this Office could suggest such a thing.
Had pages %, 26 and 27 of the rail-
road commissioners report Of 1901
been consulted, the ideas of the rail
road commissioners would have been
found
Since the legislature gave us the
power to dictate as to construction and
equipment, we have insisted on all oc-
casions where heavy doubA truck cars
are to be used, whether in city or
village, in billy or level country, that
power brakes shall be used 1t is a
measure that is necessary for the pub
lie safety.
This has not been the case on the
light single truck cars, because we be-
i1eye that the hand brake on these are
sufficient protection for the public. and
strong enough to enable a motorman
to control his car under all circum-
stances. AL the commissioners be-
ifeve In and have insisted on the power
brake for heavy cars, and such 8 con-
ulIlon has invariably been incorporat-
ed in the findings giving the approval
