broke aRd the horse dashed away on
mad fight. Mr. Guest was unable

gutter on North Willow street just be-
Low Pine street and Mr. and Mrs Guest
were thrown headlong over the dash

against the sidewalk curb and re-

The horse freed itself from the

fell heavily to the pavement. 1t gained
its feet once more and was starting UP

LONDON LoCoMoTION
Morgan Tube Scheme Excites Par
lament.

LONDON, Oc1. ..fs-- he efforts of the
promoters of the Morgan tube" rail-
way scheme to procure the re-establish-
ment Of the parliamentary status Of
their original franchise bill as a whole
led to an hours debate in the house of
commons last night, the only result of
which was the withdrawal Of the en-
deaVor.
The Mergans intend to ask later for
the reco1amittal Of the bill granting
the rights for their proposed tube
and other lines without regard to the
London United TraraWay company,
which was to have been operated in
connection with the Morgan tubes" !"
but which was privately bought up by
the Yerkes interests.
Thomas G. Ashton, who moved the
recommittal Of the Morgan bill, ac-
cused tIae London United company of q
dish0norabIe transaction and said he
doubted whether SO dirty transac-
ton had ever been dsne by parties
coming before parliament. ne said
also that the heuse should resent this
action by passing the Morgan bill, thus
giving the Mergans a chance. MI.
Ashton's prsEOaitisa was greeted with
cries of ''Noy '.NS.''
Mr.. Ashton's mstisn was opposed by
Sir John Dicksoa-Poynder, who said
the Morgan scheme was now a trun-
Gated affair and that it was not within
the province Of parliament to intervene
in the dissensions Of rival spectators.
James w. Lowther agreed that the
,otcr he LaoS n III
used, but he said their eneEaies were
those of their own household.
Sir Lewis McIyer, chairman Of the
house Of commons railroad committee.
and others also oppcsed the motion.
which was finally withdrawn.
The tube disputes promise to in
volve Londoners in the thorny prob.
lem whether the coHnty council or pri-
yate specuIators shall supply London's
locGmotioR needs A strong feeling is
expressed equally against the Ameri
can endeavors to secure control Of the
system and against the county council
involving itself in probable heavy
financial burdens by taking up the
work OF building tubes and tram
ways.
Ihe debate IN the mouse or commons
Tuesday night was watched by repre-
sentatives Of all the underground rail-
way interests in London.
Referring to the matter edntorially,
all the LondsR papers yesterday morn

papers being against and the Liberal

ever, that recent events have strength
ened enormously the claim of the
county council at least to have a great

KILDUFF AND LILLEY.
Corporations Hate Former and Cuddle Up to
Latter---Records of the Two Men on Few
Public Matters---Friend Of LiIey's Turned
Down in Southngton Last Night.

The corporations are getting in some
sly thrusts at Mayor Kilduff, the dem
ocratic candidate for comptroller. They
tell US that IAN applicant for this
Office that believes in confscation IN
der the guise of municipal ownership
is not fit to handle the public money"
DO you see the point? The corpora
tions claim that they, not the city, own
the public streets. Kilduff takes the
ground that the people own the streets
and that il there Is money in operating
them for trolley service, conduits and
other enterprises, the taxpayers should
realize some of it. He has found
ssme hard battles in defense Of his
position on these matters and while
he came out ahead once or twice, still
in NEST cases he got licked badly.
Some time ago he was alone in the field
against the trolley people and the tele-
phone and telegraph men, but lately
many prominent citizens who had been
opposing him tooth and nail Joined
hands with him and are now warm adj
vocates of municipal ownership of pub
lie utilities. The two last scraps the
mayor took part in meant a great deal
to the taxpayers Of this town. One
was q $4,000 JOB OH the Watertown
road and the other a matter of about
S15, 900 or $4,000 at the Oakvilie
bridge. His honor won the Watertown
road case, and by all accounts the city
will lose nothing on the extension of
the Watertown trolley. Public interest
will be served and the company that
is going to reap the harvest will foot
the bills instead of the city of Water
bury. Kilduff. is one of the most de-
spiSed men in the state by representa-
tiveS of corporations who want to ap,
propriate to their own use the public
ways Of the towns and cities without
giving anything In return for the priv
ilege. His views have been misrepre-
sented, purposely of course, and put
before the people in such ways that
those who have no personal knowledge
Of him might think him somewhat err
ratio. But the business men Of Wa
terbury. the man with the small hold
ing and the working people have al
ways had implicit faith in him, and it
would be hard to find good citizen
who would be willing to say that their
confidence was misplaced. Kilduff be-
1ieves in trolley extensions, but he feels
that where increased burdens are
placed upon municipalities on account
of tearing up streets and forcing travel
into certain parts of them the corpora
tions incurring this additional expense
should bear share of it. Last year
the board of aldermen desired to take
hold of some municipal work which
would lessen the burden of taxation,
but Mr. Lilley and his friends at Iaart-
ford wouldn't have il. The application
of the city to use the streets was de-
MED at Hartford and a few days later
the telephone company presented an
application to the board Of aldermen
for approval Of plans to construct con-
duits in every street in Waterbury. All
the factories have grown tired Of buy
| ing electricity and have gone into the

KRUGAno MEMOIRS

Bitter Denuneiaa1Sns For British
Public Men.
LONDON, Oct. 3o.-The Times to-day
prints further extracts from THE
Memoirs OF President Kruger,'' which
will be published in November.
Referring to the late Cecil Rhodes,
Mr.. Kruger says he was one of the
most unscrupuieus caara cters that ever
existed No matter hsW base and how
contemplate, be it lying, bribery on
treachery, al and every means were
welcome to him If they Wculd lead to
the attainment OF his ambitions and de
sires.
Mr.. Kruger describes Lord Mslner as
'sthis tool of CRaMbsrlaiR's" and says
the hiSh comnisaioaer kas carried cut
his mission faithfully "ana today en-
joys the satisfaction of having turned
South Africa into q wilderness and
robbed thousands Of innocent people oil
their lives"
Lord Miner, Mr.. Kruger declares, LET
no opportunity so by OF harassing the
South African Republic and putting his
foot on its neck.
Of Great Britaih's policy in South
Africa the ex-president says:
Lies, treachery, iptrigues and secret
instigatiens against the government OF
the republic these have always been
the distinguishing marks of English
politics, which found their final goal in
a cruel war"

on this basis, but the trolley men
headed him OF at Hartford. But we
must stop. 1t would require too much
space to enumerate all the schemes
that have been Matched up by the COR
porations to get something out Of the
people for nothing. Kilduff has stood
for the people and in so doing he had
to take all the shot the corporations
and their allies could get into him.

v. Walkley, George T.. Lilley's chum
on the railroad committee. Walkley
wanted another trial. but his constit-
uents had all they wanted Of him and
told him so last night in no uncertain
terms. The electors held a caucus
and nominated e. p. Hotchliss to
represent them in Hartford and let
Mr. Walkley remain at home. The
opposition to Mr. Walkley grew out OF
his attitude towards the project for
trolley franchise from waterbury to
Merlden and although the line was to
PISS through Plantsvilfe, where Mr.
WallSley lives, and would be a big

SENSATION IN wINsTED.
Prominent Citizen Confesses to Hav-
ing Done Wrong.

IIOLH1u0HL# ClIlZ0n COnTeSSeS TO sdaV-
ing Done Wrong.
Winsted. Oct 30.-It became known
last night that John B. Adams, one OF
the most prominent citizens. had con-
fessed to missteD. He is president
of the Franklin Moore Bolt Co. one
of the principal industries here, capl-
talized at $1IO.00O. trustee of the es-
tate of the late Alfred Moore. valued
at 100000. and manager Of the cloth
ing store of M. i. Hurlburt.
Mr. Adams has been sick for the
past month and during his absence
from the clothing store it was learned,
it is said, that before he was taken
sick he had sold two fur coats fop
Sl57. No account Of the sale was
found on the books. Mr. Hurlburt
went to Mr. Adamss house and cues
toned him about the matter. Mr. Ad-
ans, it is said. confessed that he had
appropriated the money and agreed to
reimburse his employer. Mr. Hurl-
burt will not prosecute.
Mr. Adams came here from Massa-
chusetts about five years ago and was
soon made manager of the clothing
store. When Mr. Moore of the Bolt
company-Who also was well known
balloonist-died he left 100000 to his
wife with the provision that she
should not marry again; if she did the
money should go to his children. Af-
ter Mr. Moore's death Adams was
made executor Of the estate and Mrs
Moore made him president of the bolt
company. Two years later Mrs Moore
and Adams were married, the former
thereby sacrificing the 100000 left
by her husband.
Adams has been popular and prom
inentIy identified with the business in
terests of the town. Mrs Adams is
Frustrated as a result OF her husbands
action and no one is allowed to see
her. So far as known Adams's ac-
counts with the bolt company and as
trustee of the Moore estate are -

MELANCHOLY PROCEEDINGS.
Tube Railroad Debate in the House of
Commons.

London, Oct 3O.-The Globe this af-
ternoon commenting on the .stube''
railroad debate in the house of COM
mons yesterday says: Last nights
proceedings were a melancholy fore
taste Of what we are to expect under
the rule of American capitalism The
real sting consists in the fact that
American syndicates should have been
allowed to fight over the body of the
London citizen
The paper attributes the present
condition of affairs to the apathy Of
the British investor, but declares il
is sbetter to muddle on, overcrowded
and badly served as we are, than to
place our means of lOcomotion in the
hsAds of transatlantic railway job
bers"
In conclusion the Globe urges the
government to control the 'stubes."
The other afternoon newspapers
comment on the situation in a similar
tone.

RUINS OF STONE HuTs.
Have Been Found instead of the Alas
kan Boundary Stones.

Kan Boundary Stones.
Victoria, B. c.. Oct Archibald
Cameron, road superintendent, who
has just arrived here from Porcupine,
says the line of boundary monuments
alleged to have been discovered and
stated to be the demarkation of the
Alaskan boundary, are the ruins of
stone huts built by the Indians of the
interior where they met t1ese of the
coast on neutral ground abot1t 6S
miles from tidewater and about 10
miles beyond the timber line.
He describes the origin Of the huts
as follows: The Indians of the coast
and those of the interior We're jealous
of each other, in fact were hereditary
foes and that it was only after gener-
ations of bitter feud that an armed
truce was established between them.
Before the arrangement of this Abor-
iginal modus vivendi the interior or
Stick Indians, were not allowed to
hunt or trap on the Pacific slope, the
coast Indians holding all the territory
which lies between the sea and the
mountains as their particular reserve.
When the Russians established trad
ing posts on the coast of Alaska, the
Chilas sent envoys to the Sticks and
proposed peace terms to them so that
their furs could be exchanged. A
truce was made by which the Sticks
were allowed to come across the di-
vide laden with furs to certain point
where the Chilas met them with a
stock of goods from the storehouses
of the Russians and there at stated
times of the year a great Indian fair
was held. The meeting place was out
side of the timber line and as no wood
was available the Indians built stone
huts OF the most primitive construc-
tions, mere piles of stones without
mortar, the interstices being filed with
moss, and these were used in common
non by the traders. These were the
so-called monuments.

GENERAL BOTHA'S MISSION.
1t is To Raise Funds For Ruined

Millions of Pounds Saved the British

called on our people to come in and
lay down their arms. How many MIL

tiOn by that surrender it is needless
now to reckon up.
"Haying accepted the terms Lord
Kitchener was authorized to offer US,
we never thought to have them modf-
fed. What we sought for was not a
modification OF the terms Of the peace
treaty, but the immediate help of
which our people are In sore need.
Having come to plead a cause
which should speak eloquently enough
for itself, we are sorely disappointed
by the result At least, we have had
every reason to consider that we have
failed in our errand.
1T is assumed that we did not take
kindly to a loan. That supposition
was gratuitous. As to the shape ia
which material help should be given
we had neither the right nor the will
to pick and choose. But, having seen
no prospect Of receiving such help, we
appealed in urgent need to all the ma
tions Of the world.
THAT course has been sharply criti-
cized. SO far as we can see all our
appeal to foreigners implied was that
oru people We're in sore need Of instant
relief and that we were willing to I'M
dergo the humiliation Of pleading for
it.
