some opinions by the following report published in a Boston paper yesterday: The report says. "The most colossal financial transaction ever attempted in Massachusetts has practically been completed and the announcement is now made that the city of Boston is to be the eastern terminus of great transcontinental line of the great trans oceanic steamship amalgamation.
 'The New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company with it's great docks and terminal facilities is to be absorbed by the Pennsylvania rail- road. While all details have not yet been completed the deal has progressed to that stage where bill is being pre- pared and the way paved to asking the next legislature of the state for power to turn over the New York. New Haven and Hartford to the control of the Pennsylvania company. The stock of the New Haven road is being acquir- cd as fast as possible by the Pennsyl- vania interests and yesterday it was stated that Pennsylvania capitalists were satisfied that no difficulty was in the way of final acquisition of the road
 The same interests seeking to bring about the absorption of the New Haven road are the prime movers in the great steamship combine. There will be, it is said, no clash of the Vanderbilt inter- ests with the Boston interests.
 From private advices in this city it was learned that the Pennsylvania road intended the expenditure of about $3,- 00C000 to further equip the New Ha- ven's property at Boston. It was also stated that the lease would be accom- panied by a 10 per cent. guarantee. which is per cent. more than the New Haven road is now paying it's holders,
 The revival of this rumor has occur-E red so frequently of late that in finan- cial circles in this city it is now given credence, though no one connected with the Consolidated read will admit it's trutl,'

CONSTITUTIONAL OAK

i To be Planted in Commemoration of ! the Convention. Colonel Osborn has received the sub | joined letter from the bureau of plant 1 industry of the United States depart ment of agriculture;
 Washington. D. C., April 2l 1902. 1 Norris c. Osborn, New Haven, Conn.,: | Dear sir: Through an arrangement made by the Connecticut delegation in | congress, there has been shipped you by express constitutional oak to be planted in commemora ton of the constitutional convention held this year in Connecticut. Full directions for planting will be found accompanying the tree.
 Trusting that the tree will arrive safely and that it will long serve as record of the work done, I remain
 Yours respectfully
 B. T. Galloway, Chief of Bureau.
 The letter was shown to President Henry T, Blake of the park cemmis- sion with a request for suggestions as to the disposition of the Constitutional oak" MT. Blake said with smile that as the constitutional convention now being held in Hartford had been farce so far and promised to maintain that character to the end, the planting of an oak to commemorate the work of that body might be regarded as satiri- cal.
 However" continued MT, Blake, T think it would be proper to plant the oak with due ceremony It will at least mark an epoch in the history of constitution making in this state. When Colonel Osborn receives the plant if he notifies the park commission we shall take care of it until such time as the court of common council shall deter mine whether the city shall accept it and shall designate the park in which it may be planted"

The strongest argument we can give in favor of our Misses and Childrens Shoes is the Wear and Fit. We are just as careful to have the little ones well fitted as their elders We aim to have the feet entrusted to our care when they have gotten their growth without blemish free from corns, bunions and enlarged toe joints. Don't put narrow toe shoes onto growing feet The toes should be wide and the last rather straight on the inside with a medium outside swing, thick through on inside ball and thin on the out side The shoes should be the shape of the foot, not have the foot shape the shoe

SAMUEL PALMER RELEASED.

Samuel Palmer, the New Britain youth arrested Wednesday by Detec- tive Dunlap on a warrant charging em- bezzlement by bailee was released from custody yesterday upon payment of costs and returned to his home. The allegations in the warrant were furnish- ed by George T. Collett, bicycle deal CT, who claimed that Palmer purchas- ed a Thistle racer on the installment plan on September 30, the price agreed upon being $55 He did not keep up the payment and disposed of the wheel be- fore Collett could recover it.
 Palmer's side of the story differs. He had been engaged in racing for Collett, he says, and in payment for his ser vices received one dollar. In Septem- ber he purchased the wheel as ColIett alleges, and paid several instal- ments but in November shipped it back to Collett by express and notified Col lett of the fact. Collett neglected to call for the wheel, and it was either lost or disposed of in some manner
