 Artillery Dedication Here.
 Hartford, July 9.-The general monu- ment committee of the First Connecti- cut Heavy Artillery will hold an inter- esting meeting this week at the new headquarters of the Regimental asso- citation, 94 Pearl street. These head quarters have been established for the purpose of facilitating the work that is to be done by the association between now and the dedication of the monu- ment which is to be erected in honor of the command on the capitol grounds, September 25.
 One of the most interesting features of the dedication will be the presence here of the A. P. Hill camp of Con- federate veterans of Petersburg, Va. This camp has signified it's intention to be here and will bring with it two of the shells that were fired into the city of Petersburg from the 13-inch mortar, which is to surmount the monument. These shells were fired durng the bom- bardment of Petersburg by the First Heavy Artillery from the old mortar | burg since the civil war. The intention is to give them fixed and permanent position on the monument. Ex-Gov- ernor Morgan G. Bulkeley is deeply in- terested in the plans for the visit of the Confederate veterans and no pains will be spared in giving them a suit | able reception in the Connecticut capi- | tai.
 The association is now engaged in the prepartion of a souvenir work that will fittingly commemorate the dedica- tion of the monument. It will be VOL | ume of great interest from the veteran point of view. It will contain a history of the First Heavy Artillery in the war and the Hartford City Guard company that served in the regiment will be ! honored with a special article. There will also be special features relating to the contributions towards the monu- ment from ex-Governor Bulkeley and General William H. Bulkeley, the brother of whom, Captain Charles E. | Bulkeley, was an officer in the regi- | ment and gave his life for the Union cause. MT. Miller of Bridgeport. who | is the donor of the mortar will be suitably recognized in the souvenir. Edmond D. Riley is the president of the Regimental association and Lieu tenant Hobart A. Deming of the state arsental, secretary at the present time. MT. Miller is at the head of the general committee and Judge Henry E. Taintor is the secretary. The work on the mon ument which is being made by the | Stephen Maslen company of this city, is advancing satisfactorily. MT. Maslen is giving the work his personal super vision. Several of the Connecticut regi- ments will postpone their annual re- unions this year until September 25, in order to be at the dedication as regi- mental organizations.

Situation the Same at Present, But a
 Settlement is Near.
 The strike situation at Sargent's was just about the same last night as it was Wednesday night. The secretary of the strikers committee waited for a reply last night from the Sargent fac tory but he went to bed without it. He said that he thought the strike would last only few days longer. About one hundred more men quit work yesterday and the strikers now number about r. 800.
 There is no disorder at all at the fac tories. the men doing picket duty hay ing very little to keep them busy. Four men went to work there yesterday and nothing has come of the reports that men were being hired about the state in large numbers. If the committee re- ceives a reply from the factory this morning they will meet in Trades Council hall and take action. A settle ment could not have been reached last night, the secretary said. even if the expected reply had been received. The committee would have to act upon it first and they only meet in the morning. Its members are scattered all about town.

 He smiled faintly as he turned to- ward me.

 Doyle is on the doorstep now" he said. A bell tangled. A moment later the door opened and the visitor entered. He was tall and neatly dressed. with the usual number of features. He greeted Holmes with broad smile.
 "Howdy, doctor?" said the great de- tective.

 "Of course. Why not? I know it be- cause it's the only one of your profess sions that requires practice"

NOT so BAD AFTER ALL.

 One Man, Not Two.

Italian Baker Was to be Shot by Only
 One Man. Not Two.
 A story was given to the newspapers Wednesday night to the effect that an Italian baker employed at A Gentile's. 54 Hill street, was to be shot if he left his employer for another, and was also to be shot by another man if he didn't jump his job.
 It seems that this was little mixed. The man who was to do all the shoot ing was man discharged by c. Caval- loro, a baker at 56 Hill street who had heard that the man referred to above was coming over to take his place at Cavalloro's. The discharged man threatened to shoot the baker if he came over to Cavalloro, but there was no trouble as the place was filled to the satisfaction of all.

THE ATHENS OF MISSOURI.
Remarkable Showing Made by News
dealers Of Columbus.

This city claims the distinction Of
being better posted on current events
than any other town in the country.
Columbia has long been known
the state as the Athens Of
Missouri, by reason of the fact that
the State University and many of the
principal educational institutes of the
state are located here.
Another name for the town is the
Boston of the West. The citizens are
proud of this, and have often boosted
of the reputation OF the town for cul-
ture and intelligence. An investiga-
ton of the accounts Of the news deal
ers and comparison Of them with the
last census OF the town, which has now
a population of about 1000, brought to
light the fact that enough newspapers
are sold each day in Columbia to sup.
ply daily one copy each to every man,
woman and child in the city limits. The
circulation of daily newspapers in Co
lumbia has long been matter of com
ment, and was referred to with pride,
but 1t was not until the last six
months that the sale increased to such
extraordinary proportions.

The Inquiry Should Be Searching

The probability is that there is a
skeleton in every closet into which
the coal combine is likely to look.
This being so, 1t cannot open too
many doors or inquire too curiously as
to what may be behind them. The
public interest will be served in the
fullest sense by bringing them to
light, to the end that wrongs may be
corrected, abuses reformed, the laws
enforced, new laws enacted IL neces
sary and the consumer given such
protection as he is entitled to claim
against everything in the shape OF
conspiracy in restraint of trade.

REGULATION Of the Trusts,

Mr.. Roosevets idea is to put the
screws upon the trusts by proceedings
under existing laws, and to
strengthen the law where it may be
found necessary by additional legis.
lation. But this. while eminently de-
sirable, is slow and long process.
There is a shorter way to secure pro-
lection for the public against present
extortion in the matter Of prices, and
this is to remove at once the tariff
duties on articles controlled by trusts.
This would put stop to the robbery
OF the people, and meanwhile the
President could go ahead with his
plan of regulation and publicity.

Our esteemed friends of Massachu.
sets are making hot fight for free
hides. We wish them all success, fol-
the duty on hides is absurd. But we
wonder whether our friends would
consent to free boots and shoes, free
wooden and cotton goods, or to the
serious reduction in the duties on any
Of the products which they manufac
ture. To leave these other duties as
they stand now and to remove the
duty on hides would be to give SC
much more protection to the indus
tries using hides as raw materials.
