CARPENTERS BUSINESS AGENT.

CARPENTERS BUSINESS AGENT. To the Editor of the Democrat:
 , Allow me space in your valuable pa per to correct the impression that the carpenters of Waterbury are gloating over the demolition of our beautiful city. At our meeting last night there were expressions of sincerest regrets as to the calamity. Now, MT Eidtor, there have been remarks made inslnu- ating that the trades would take ad- vantage of the condition. Far from it. The backbone of the carpenters union is endowed with better sense of jus tice and consider that they are equally the losers in the disaster, and the men who make those assertions are the ones who would take advantage of us should the conditions be reversed. We believe in the system of give and take; it may be because we have nothing to give, and if we get anything we will be in that much; but those who nrc able to give we leave it to you which they do most freely. An instance of that kind occurred last evening. Now. We get so much for q days work of eight hours and as the men were pick ing up their tools certain real estnte man stepped up and said: You fel- lows ought to work ten hours" The answer was. "We will work if you will pay us" The reply was NO" There it is. afr Editor. Wc arc willing to give what we can, but this other fellow won't give q -. Let anyone who is interested enough inquire of the mas ter builders as to cur Integrity.

It is, called 'sThe Blacksmith and is the property of MT Galbraith of New York. It is a famous painting by Dc Lorple, French artist of great fame in his day. This picture is said to be one of his best. It shows blacksmith stand ing at his forge with one hand on the bellows string and the other holding d pliers pushing the coal of his furnace in on the iron he has heating. The glow of the hissing furnace lights up his brawny arms and perspiring face, while at his back is the after noon gleams of the sun and the cold daylight. These latter lights come through a half open door and q dust covered window which brings the an- vii with the hammer lying on it into pleasant relief and shows cobwebs Oh the dusty panes. Scales of cool iron are still on the anvil showing the blacksmith has just turned from if to the furnace and was henping the coais on the fire when the artist dropped in on him. Tine picture is very natural and has aroused the greatest admira- ton wherever eyhibited When in Washington 1t was studied greatly by physicians on account of the accuracy of its anatomy, in which particular 1t l Is said to be unusually striking. The muscles of the left wrist are plainly visible in the light of the sparkling | fire. the intensity of the gaze fastened on the iron. the firm, vigorous mouth. 1 the precipitation on the forehead, are all as natural as can be. It is a pie ture that will arouse great enthusiasm among local art people and even tho uninitiated cannot fail to give It aa- rniration.

Berlin, Nov. 2s-The vorwaerts to-
day, commenting on Emperor Will
liam's speech at Essen. Wednesday. the
day of the funeral of Herr Krupp,
says:
While prosecution is still pending
against us and the truth is not yet
judicially ascertained, the Emperor
anticipates the courts findings by pro-
nouncing our guilt out of hand Is II
allowed that the crown, at the initia-
tory stage of pending case. utter a

themselves to the suspicion that their

tice stands above everybody even

of the courts is the life and nerve of

quate answer to the Emperor's speech
is prevented through the lese majestic
paragraphs"

afiirms in moderate language the truth
of its original charges against the late

ALLEGED CHIEF OF
ST. LOUIS B00DLERS.
Returns to This Country and Is Ar
rested.


Philadelphia, Nov. 2S.-After eluding
arrest for several months, Charles F.
Kelley, the former speaker of the st.
Louis House of Delegates, who is want
ed in the Western city in connection
with the bribery cases unearthed there
some time ago was arrested in this
city at 1:1O O'Clock this afternoon.
Kelley arrived in New York on the
steamer Celtic this morning from
Liverpool and had just stepped from
the Western express in the Broad street
station of the Pennsylvania Railroad
here when he was taken in custody by
Detective James Tate of the detective
bureau of this city. He admitted his
identity and is now locked up in the
central police station. He will be given
hearing tomorrow morning by Mag
! istrate Kockesperger, and will be held
to await requistion papers form Mis-
souri,.
Kelley was crestfallen when he reach
ed the police station. In an inter
view he said:
L was on my way back to st. Louis
and meant to announce my arrival
there Monday and give myself up to
answer whatever charges have been
laid against me. 1 had been absent in
Europe for several months and spent
most of my time in Ireland. On my
arrival in New York this morning I
received word that my 11-year-old boy
had died in st. Louis. AS soon as l
stepped from the steamer it was sug-
gested to me by an old acquaintance
that l come to Philadelphia for a few
days. / came here and now find my
self under arrest. That's all there is to
it."
The accused man carried considerable
baggage, and the labels on it indicated
that he had been in Naples, Paris,
London, Berlin, Dublin and Killarney.

WANTS To SETTLE
VENEZUELA SENDS COMMISSIONER

REGARDING THE CLAIMS OF pow
ERs AND INDIVIDUALS,

Steps Taken in London With the

Against the South American
Republic Propositions Made
Through Medium of AngIo-Ameri-

Upon Best Security Yet offered Is
the Plan of Settlement.
London. Nov. 2S.-The Associated
Press learns that important steps were
taken in London to-day, with a view
|, to satisfying all the financial and dip
lomatic claims by foreign powers, and
bondholders against Venezuela. 1t is
maintained that if the contemplated
action meets with approval, Germany
and Great Britain will have no cause
to take the vigorous steps now con-
templated.
The details of the suggested settle
ment have not been communicated to
the European governments as yet.
Their gist will first be made known to
the United States government. proba-
bly, tomorrow. The medium of such
communication is one of the most i'm
ezuela's propositions were mentioned to
Ambassador Choate to-day but pend
ing the result of the direct representa-
tons at Washington, no action Will be
taken by the embassy towards suggest
ing that Venezuela be given time to
submit her proposition.
Venezuelan Delegation.
The new development in the crisis,
which ic r6ad ne hourly growing
more serious, is due to the arrival in
Erope of a secret delegation from the
Venezuelan government, empowered to
deal with the outstanding liabilities of
that republic. Until a suitable plan
could be arranged, it was considered
inadvisable to communicate with the
foreign ministers at Caracas, with
whom relations have become so strain
ed. Such a plan has now, in the be-
lief of the delegation, been arrived
at. and, unofficially, through the An
glo-American banker, the attitude of
the United States will be ascertained.
Besides, the State Department will be
put in a position to be able to Judge
of the value of Venezuela's offer and
her good faith in the matter.
Unihcation of Loans.
The details of the plan, which will
be communicated to the State Depart
ment. are carefully guarded. but the
Associated Press is in position to an
nounce that the main feature is a uni
! flea tion of all the outstanding govern
ment and government-guarante
loans upon basis of security much
greater than has been hitherto offered.
1t is strenuously denied that the pres
ent movement is due to any desire on
the part of Venezuela to "spar for
time" with Great Britain and Ger
many, and in proof of this it is point
ed out that the secret mission left
Venezuela before her relations with
Great Britain and Germany had as
sumed the present acute aspect.
Should the United States government
give its moral support, the plan will
be submitted to American bankers.
The Venezuelan delegation believes
that u is not too late to secure the
necessary facilities from Europe to
bring about a settlement satisfactory
to all parties concerned.

CRIES OUT AGAINST FRAUD.
Grand Jury at St. Louis Condemns
the BOOdIers.


st. Louis, Nov. 2S.-The October
grand jury submitted it's final report
tonight and adjourned.
The report is sensational, advocating
a change in the election law, and Sc
verely criucising the city officials who
have been connected with the boodling
cases. Informations, charging fraud
ulent voting were issued against four
men, and several other indictments
were returned against persons whose
names are kept secret because they are
not yet in custody.
The report, in part, says:
"Citizens of st. Louis have learned
with shame how they have been mer-
cilessly robbed for years. For the
past nine months, we have been re-
called with the greatest exposure of
corruption the world has ever known
We believe the people have been awak-
ened and the public conscience has
been quickened, and we feel gratified
that the law is being vigorously en-
forced and due and proper punish
ment is being melted out to these pub
lie plunderers.
I'VE have spent some time in inves-
tigating crimes against the ballot.
While it is clear that many frauds
have been perpetrated. the difficulty of
procuring direct testimony is very
great. Corrupt and incompetent men
were appointed as judges and clerks of
election in a number of precincts,
which are controlled by the baser eIe-
ments of our community, and the bar
gains made by the ward and precinct
bosses were carried out by these pill
ant tools. The Nesbit election law
should be amended"
