Original Date Preserved and Pro- gramme Arranged.
 At meeting of the executive com- mittee of the Bristol Old Home Week association held in the town court room the plans for the celebration were fur ther perfected. President Adrian J. Muzzy presided. The industrial conn mittee, of which Albert F. Rockwell is chairman, held their meeting first, and

 man or the art exhibit committee was
 received and accepted. It was voted to combine that committee with the his torical exhibit committee It was also
 decided to have one place of registra- tion, the Bristol public library. The most important question to settle was the matter of postponing the date of ! the celebration.

The Connecticut Valley Advertiser of recent date in its Tylerville news gives an interesting item regarding promi- nent Kentuckian who, by the way, is a cousin of President F. w. J. Sizer of the National Savings bank and a part of whose early school days were spent at the same school in Tylerville men tioned in the item. The Advertiser says: Hon. William H. Holt of Ken lucky was in Haddam and Chester this week, visiting relatives and friends. His parents were natives of this vicin- ity, and the judge spent some time and attended school in Tylerville during his boyhood. He arose to distinction in the legal profession in the Blue Grass State" and became Chief Justice. He was a prominent candidate for the United States Senatorship, before the last Republican legislature of Ken lucky. Judge Holt was selected by President Mckinley as the first United States judge for the District of Porto Rico, with the duty of introducing our system of jurisprudence to the inhabit- ants of that island. He has since been engaged in that important work, spend ing about nine months of each year on the island. He reports the climate and scenery of the island as delightful. Having been away from Connecticut for many years, he spoke with admira- ton of the rural scenery of our river valley, considering it the most beauti- full valley he had ever seem

New York. July 27.-Wall street seem ed to be disposed to take it's troubles in a phlegmatic way. Up to midday only two new failures were announced. and one of them was quite uninportant. They had no effect whatever upon prices, and the market, instead of sell ing off, rallied quite sharply Brokers with orders to excute found a consider able scarcity of stocks for sale, which is the basis for the opinion that heavy liquidation has ceased, temporarily at least. It is unlikely that anybody will sell stocks around present figures, un- less compelled to for financial reasons, which leads to the hope that if the weak spots in the situation have been either weeded out or eliminated the pressure has seen it's worst. After the early rally the market became quiet. and there is no doubt but that the shrewd resistance that has been made to-day is causing a more cheerful feel ing.

Investigation Into the Charges Filed By

New York. April 21.-The Interstate
commerce commission sat In this city
today to consider the complaint OF Will
lam R. Hearst that certain coal carry
ing roads are violating the interstate'
commerce law. The defendant roads
are the Philadelphia & Reading. Lehigh
Valley, Central New Jersey, New York.:
Susquehanna & Western Erie, Ontario.
& Western, Delaware & Hudson, Penn
sylvania and Baltimore & Ohio. The
specific complaints of Hearst are that
the roads charge unreasonable rates;
that they unjustly discriminate In fa-l
vor Of bituminous against anthraeite;
coal companies and have contrived In
violation OF the ann-pooling section Of
the Interstate commerce law to discrim-
mate against independent coal mining
companies in favor Of the companies
controlled by the railroads. The sDela-
ware & Hudson. Erie, Laakawanna, Lee

appearances. No answers were received
from the Pennsylvania and Baltimore

have discovered such a process. and
in the presence of delegation of Du-
luth men interested in mining Mr..
Johnson today conducted a successful
demonstration of his discovery. A
prominent chemist and assayer who
was present stated that in his opinion
this ore could now be sheltered as
cheaply as hermatite.
Aside from the solving of the ques-
ton of how to smelt this refractory ore,
1t is said that it produces a steel better
than Bessemer, because with one third
the weight the same tensile strength
is secured. The superior quality of the
product is ascribed tc' the presence in
the ore of vanadium and chrome, in
gradients that are said to give 1t ex-
traordinitry strength and toughness.
Propositions looking toward the con-
struction of large smelling works at
Duluth have been hinging on the re-
suit of this test, and il is expected, now
that success has been attained. that
these projects will be rapidly pushed.
