Many People Make the Trip to New
 Haven Via the Loop
 Waterbury, May 19.-The first train to make the f1fty-minute trip between this city and New Haven over the old Meriden road to Cheshire and the Northampton division tracks was made on schedule time yesterday morning. A large crowd took advantage of the new route and loaded the train for it's first trip.
 It was 7:50 p. m. when the train pulled out of the Dublin street station, and $40 when it rolled into the union station at New Haven The first trip was made In fifty minutes, just as ad- vertised. Only two stops were made; one at West Cheshire, where the train leaves the old Meriden tracks to take the "loop," and the other at Cheshire Junction, the new station where the train uses the Northampton tracks with it's straight away to the City of Films.
 Along the route the occupants of the farm houses received the new order of things with shouts of welcome and waving of handkerchiefs, while the crowds at the two stations where stops were made were enthusiastic in their demonstration.
 The new branch did a good business all day yesterday and the regular ser vice beginning this morning was also largely patronized. The railroad off, cials are convinced that the new plan will meet with public favor from the first.

THE ELMs TO THE MAYOR.

We hear that the offer of the Yale School of Forestry to care for us was declined. Why?
 We lived through the onslaught of the larvae of the elm bottles last year, but we looked as if devouring flame had passed. Our lungs Qeaves) were nearly consumed. We have hardly life enough left to put out scanty leafing this season, and no one seems to care. Cannot you, of whom we have heard such good reports, helps us? It must be done at once. Yale has begun her work. Seven young sisters have joined us on the Green. Every one of them Is doomed unless its leaves. are saved, for they have few rootlets to take hold of the soil.
 Two years more and the name City of Films" will be thing of the past, unless you help us live. ELM.

EXCELLENT BICYCLE MEET
PROMISED FOR THIS EVENING AT
 COLISEUaI.

New Management Determined to Suc-
 ceed-A List of Some of the Riders Who
 Will compete-Profe fessiOnaIs and Local Amateurs Entered-- Racing VIII Begin at 8 o'clock
 With over fifty individual riders to spin around the little eight lap track on Howard avenue tonight, the open ing meet of the New Haven Coliseum Great care has been taken by the new management to open the season here with good programme, and the fact that both national champions, Frank Kramer, the professional premier, and Marcus Hurley. who won his honors over all the amateur riders, will ap- pear, should prove an attraction in It. self. There are other riders, however, real stars of both brigades. George Collett, the local flyer; "Old Kaintuck" Kimble, Johnny Fisher, the Chicago Whirlwind," George Schreiber, the in door crack; Floyd Krebs, te Flying Dutehman,'' Charles Hatfield, wo fin- ised third in the big twenty-five mile professional race at Vailsburg on Sun day, W. A. Rutz. the popular local rider, who rode so well in several six day races last winter; Fred Caldwell, the pace follower; R. N. Carni, the ex-ama- teur crack: Saxon Williams, another New Haven boy: Walter Bardgett of Buffalo, and R. N. Alexander of Hart ford, are the best of the money gather CTS, while Teddy Ellington and Charles Sclee of Newark, George Wiley of Troy, the twenty-five mile amateur cham pion; J. F. Tchorn Of New York, and Haggerty and Linley of Bridgeport, are few Of the boys who will oppose the Perkins brothers, Ed. Collett, Dick Garfield, and other local representa- lives.
 So many riders are entered in the amateur races that large fields requir- ing trial. semi-trial and final heats will be run in order to sft out the best men in the inaugural dash, 440-yard spurt
 The pro handicap will be magni- 1cenC contest, JuuSlHS ITOIn 1dnOlCdp- per Kelsey's clever allotment of dist ances. Of course Champion Kramer is on scratch while Collett and Kimble have twenty-five yards start. John Fisher and Charles Hadfield are at the fifty yards station Rutz at sixty yards and Schreiber seventy-five yards, with the others well strung out. The limit man is Ed. Armbruster of Brooklyn, and he has 1S0 yards. He seems to be very leniently treated, judging from his good performances this year and the race may prove a runaway affair on account of his great plugging abili- ties. Schreiber, by reason of his liking for small tracks, is the favorite of the experts to win the race, and this is not in the least discounting the very credit I able form in which Champion Kramer and Collett are riding. These two will doubtless settle their long standing diff ferences in the half mile scratch race, which will precede the handicap. The races which will begin promptly at 8 D. m. will be preceded by a concert by the Second regiment band.

MOVE FOR HAYDEN's RELEASE
FROM JAIL.
STATE MAKES NooBJEc1IoN
Judge Fraser Takes Motion Under
Consideration Until Monday
Will Read Testimony.
From Saturdays Daily Gazette.

From Saturdays Daily Gazette.
If he ear find those who will be-
sureties for his appearance be-
fore the district court, l.. M. Hayden
will probably be soon released on
bonds. Formal application for an or
der fixing the bail was made in Judge
Fraser's court this morning by Mr..
Johnston, attorney for the defense.
County Attorney Hathhorn was
present and did not resist. On the
contrary, he said he felt that the de-
PENDANT was entitled to bond, the only
consideration involved being the suf-
f~iciency of the amount and the relia-
bility Of the bondsmen. While not at
tempting to advise the court he
thought about $40, 900 would be a rea-
sonable amount. Mr.. Johnston did not
consider this excessive, saying that he
thought that anywhere from $4,000 to
100000 would be about right.
Before passing on the motion Judge
Fraser announced he would want to
read the testimony adduced at the in
quest and probably the statement of
Mcbride, made by him Immediately
before the doctors amputated his leg.
To enable him to do this the judge
said he. would take until Monday
morning before passing on the motion.

WAVES EXAMINATION.
Hayden Case vii Go Direct to Dis.
trict Court.
From FRIDAYS f,a1iy Gazette.

From Fridays Daily Gazette.
After thinking the matter over, L.
M. Hayden, who stands charged with
the death of John P. Mcbride, has
concluded that he will not exercise
his right of a preliminary hearing
and will permit his case to go direct
to the district court. His attorney,
w. M. Johnston, appeared before JUS
tice Fraser this morning and gave
notice Of waiver and also said that
unless the county attorney insisted
otherwise the prisoner would not ask
to be brought into court again to
formally waive, being willing to per-
nit the notice given by his attorney
to stand.
Those who have visited him since
his Imprisonment say that Hayden is
fully cognizant Of the seriousness of
his position and regrets the unfortu-
nate occurrence deeply, but finds con
ISOLATION in the fact that he did not
wilfully cause the death of Mcbride,
declaring it to have been the result
of an accident. His friends are stand
ing by him and will do all in their
power to assist him, and while realiz-
ing that the matter is a grave one,
are hopeful. that the results will not
be as bad as some apparently appre-
bend.
While nothing authentic concern
ing the matter could be learned, as
Mr.. Johnston was not to be found, it
was said this afternoon that an eff
fort would be made to secure an or
der from the district court for the re-
lease on bail of the defendant. For
the purpose of getting the matter be-
fore the court it was said that as
soon as final action had been taken
as regards the preliminary hearing
Judge Loud would be applied to for
a writ of habeas corpus.

sheepmen have always worked in

Thanksgiving day was observed in
time honored manner The different
churches of the protestant denomina-
tions Joined in a union service with
the Methodists and offered thanks and
praise to the Giver of All Good. There
were the customary family dinners
and reunions. Many a poor, forlorn
bachelor had occasion to be thankful
because he vas invited to stretch his
attenuated legs under the board of
some generous friend and for the
time being forget that there are such
things as boarding houses and their
attendant agonies and menaces to
health and digestion The different
drink emporiums remembered their
friends and customers by setting up"
eggnogg and Tom and Jerry and add
ing hotoand cold turkey to the dishes
occupying the end of the counter CIV
en- over to the lunch of the ordinary
days.
Then there were raffes for turkeys
and also a shoot for the same bird
at which some of the experts with
the rifle contested. The bowlers roll

awaiting them or employed the health
full exercise for the purpose of aiding
over loaded stomachs to digest din

went into the country with gun and
dog in quest of game or sport, while
some of the more youthful members
of the community got out their skates
and looked for still places on the river
where they might spend the hours
doing the Dutch roll" and play shin
ny.
While crisp and snappy, the wealth
er was not so cold as to render out

ly lively. Altogether, the day was a
happy and glad one for everybody.

the train rushed by without whistling

Billings High School Team Holds
III Football Honors.
MS they now figure it the members
of the high school football team con-
slider themselves entitled to the right
of claiming to be the champions of the
state. There is not a team of high
school players that seems to be will
ing to meet them on the gridiron.
They have been flooded with chal-
lenges, all of which have been &C
cepted, but none of the ~challengers
seem to care to make good" not
w~ithstanding every i%nducement has
been offered to the crowd.
The team was to have played at
Livingston yesterday and all prepara-
tions had been made for the game,
but at almost the last moment notice
was received that the game would
have to be called off, 1t seems that
Professor Harvey of the Livingston
high school was verse to a plan that
had been matured by which it was
hoped to defeat Billings. Some out
siders wanted to organize a team of
players not connected with the school,
players much larger and heavier than
the Billings men, and play it under the
school colors. Professor Harvey would
not consent to become a party to the
deception and consequently the game
could not be played, as the Living
stonians were fearful of another beat
ing, the Billings team having shown
but recently that it was too frisky for
the boys from the Windy City.
Bozeman, Helena and Butte, all of
which had issued challenges, also
suddenly found themselves with cold
feet and refused to play the games
that had been arranged with them.
to all recognized rules Bill
ings is now the champion, having been
given the title by default.
1t is possible that a game may be
arranged with Sheridan, Wyo., as
correspondence to that effect has
been had with the manager of the
team of that place.

Ten Cents the Price Realized for Old
III any Montana sheepmen received
an offer of 10 cents per head for his
old ewes, he would probably reject
the proposition, preferring to harvest
the pelts if necessary and market
them at 40 to so cents apiece. But
the River Press is informed that a
recent shipment of that class of stock
from Fergus county netted the own
ers less than the figure named, an
outfit of some 1000 head bringing net
returns Of less than 5000.
Thin old ewes were a drug on the
lots of them sold at from Is cents to
$1.25 per head, those prices being the
best offered. AS it costs from Is to
80 cents per head for freight charges,
expenses of feeding, and yardage and
commission fees, it can easily be fig.
ured what the net returns would be
from such sales. Under these circum-
stances the railroads may soon make
a ruling that the freight OF that class
of stuff must be paid in advance.
A local shipper is trying to find out
what has become of four cars of dry
that were Skinned from the Rem
ton stock yards about three weeks
ago, says the Press. When last heard
from they were at Larimore, N. D.,
where they were unloaded for feed
and water after a hard trip, and the
Chicago commission house to which
they were consigned has reported that
they have failed to reach that point.
The shipper would like to know what
has happened to the outfit since it
left Larimore.
