BOROUGH ELECTIONS.
Held in Ridgefield, Naugatuefs, sristo
 and Winsted.

ahd Winsted.
 Winsted, Conn.,, May 4.-The borough election to-day resulted in a republican victory. The largest vote ever boiled in the history of Winsted was brought out. George Jessup was elected warden by majority of 137 and Stephen Wheeler. the chief of police. was re- elected by over 300. Last year the dem- ocrats elected a warden and two bur- gesses, but the republicans made clean sweep this year. X
 Ridgefield, May 1.-The expected op-, position to the citizens ticket did not develop in the borough election to-day and it was the only one in the field. Ex-Governor Lounsbury was elected warden.
 Bristol, May 1.-The democratic ticket was successful in to-day's borough elec- ton. John F, Wade, dem., was elected warden and two democrats and one re- publican were elected burgesses.
 Naugatuck, May 4.-All the elective offices at to-day's borough election went to the democrats. The principal battle was for warden and treasurer. John J. German and Robert Cleary were elected to the respective offices with majorities of 27S for the former and 5S for the latter.

A RAID IN WALL STREET.
PROMOTION COMPANY
 SWINDLERS ARR ESTED.
Postoffice Inspectors and Detectives Take Possession of the Handsome Offices of the British African FInan co Company-Many Persons Victim .zed-- Bogus South African Diamond Field Company.

New York, May 4.-Central office de- tectives and postoffice inspectors to-day raided the handsome offices of the Brit ish African Finance company in Wall street and arrested John J. Prince, his son, Joseph k. Prince, and Horace Blackmur, on charges of grand larceny and the fraudulent use of the United States mails. The concern is said to have victinized persons by the sale of bonds and stock os the Nokanna com pany. limited. owning extensive dia- mond field in South Africa. which, with the company are said to be purely mythical.
 According to the circulars issued by the British African Finance company members of the nobility figure among the officers and directors. Sir Frederick Cammington is named as president. Sir Percy Sanderson, the British consul general, has informed the police here that no such person exists. The other officers are gives as General Edward L. Wallen, vice president; J. Cammeron Rogers, secretary; Hansell Taylor, treasurer, and the board of directors consists of Sir Fred Cammington, chair man; Sigmund Rothschild, J. Camlmeron Rogers, Thomas Kanpey Brown, Baron Heinrich von Prall, Hon. Edmund l.. Wallen and Sir Charles Noble. =
 The police say they have letter from Sir Percy Sanderson in which he says. there are no such persons in London. He has also written to the postoffice authorities that he believes the compa- ny to be a fraud. John P. Austin is named as manager of the B. A. F. com pany, but the police think him a myth, as they have never been able to come upon him during their investigations. The chief complainant against the con- cern is William Bush, of New London. Conn.,, who says he corresponded with the company and was referred by them to various firms which, the police say, were mythical. One reference was the British Bank of South Africa, in Cape Town. August Knollwood president. Bush wrote to him and got a reply, but later learned that no such bank ex-. isted.
 The detectives found a list of about three hundred names of customers of the company and a number of letters from people who acknowledged having received small dividends on stocks. Among them were Dwight Loomis, of Hartford, Conn.,, F. J. Grimes, of South Hadley. Mass, and John P. Gage, of Fall River, Mass.
 The concern is supposed to have been running about seven months.

WOULD LET FIR. WALsER GO.
Opinion of Lornin's nIayor in tass or
 Priest Accused Of Murder.

Lorain, O., May 4--ssIf Father Walser was to have his preliminary hearing right here in my office now and. T had to use the evidence I now possessSagain the man. in my judgment I think [ should let him go..' was the remark made by Mayor King to-day when asked what he thought of Father Walser's guilt. Coroner French, Chief Bramarl and Prosecutor Stroup held like view. Prosecuting Attorney Stroup stated to- day that in his opinion the evidence at hand was not sufficient to warrant hold- ing Father Walser to appear before the grand jury. However, said he, the off fieers are working up the case upon a line which they are keeping secret at this time and developments may result before the inquest tomorrow. MT. Stroup had some criticism to offer to the relatives of the murdered girl for their criticism of the authorities
 It is well known said he, sthat the law holds a county liable for any harm that may come to 8 person at the hands of 8 mob. hence our action in placing Father Walser under arrest was per- fectly justiaable even if his guilt cam not be proven "
 The inquest over the remains of Miss Reichlin will be held tomorrow nlorn- ing and it is probable the hearing to be given Father Walser will follow the in quest. The priest positively refuses to see newspaper men in his cell at the county jail to-day. but it is stated he was in good spirits. having passed . comfortable night. Father Horse of ver- million, who assisted in the requiem mass at Miss Reichlin's funeral made the statement to-day that five attorneys had volunteered their services to de- fend Father Walser and an unlimited sum of money will be Forthcoming to help him in the event that his case goes to trial.

SQUEEZED THE PUBLIC.
Coal Dealers Accused by NIassachusetts
 Legislative Committee.

Legislative Committee.
 Boston, May 4.-While recognizing that the primary cause of the high price of coal last winter was the strike, and the secondary cause the seizure of the eastern markets by the independent operators, the legislative coal investi- gating committee which filed it's report to-day finds that in many cases local dealers in Massachusetts took advan- tage of this situation to exact from the public the highest prices obtainable, without reference to the question of whether or not they were obtaining a fair profit. The committee also finds that the opportunity for this action by the local dealers was greatly facilitated by the general existence throughout the commonwealth oS coal clubs, so-called.
 The committee recommends bill pre- venting such monopolies as we'll as a bill providing for the public weighing of coal and in conclusion recommends that the testimony be referred to the attorney general and if he finds that there is sufficient evidence of violation of existing law, he to Institute prosecu- tions.

 TTON AND COLUMBIA.
l.. L.-Last Year's Defender Arrived Yesterday Afternoons -Iseitn LtkeIy to Take the Reliance Over To-day and Offer Challenge.

Glen Cove. L. T.. May 4.-If the new cup yacht Reliance does not have a brush tomorrow with one or the other of the cup defence candidates it will be because the owners of the older boats are still unwilling or not ready to try conclusions with the new boat. Neither is it likely to be the fault of c. Oliver Iselin, managing member of the Reli- taace syndicate, for he is known to be spelling for chance to have it out with both the Columbia and Constitu- tion. ;.
 Tonight both of the older boats are lying in the harbor here while eight miles across the Sound at New Rochelle is the Reliance. The Columbia arrived at p. m., coming from City Island with MT. Morgan, her owner on board and tying up at moorings near the Constitution. The Reliance has been sailing off Glen Cove almost every day since reaching New Rochelle and MT. Iselin may be expected to sail her over here tomorrow and challenge the Co., lumbia to brush. N
 He had the Reliance out for three- hour spin in a very light east wind to- day for a trial in typical cup defense weather. Despite the light wind she covered thirty miles beating up to Mat inicook Point twice under lower sails and baby jibtopsail and small club top sail and running back to New Rochelle once carrying balloon jib topsail and spinnaker, and on the second run with out jibtopsail or staysail Considering the soft wind she moved at fast clip. The leach of her main sail is still loose and slats when close hauled.

Do Not Differ Efrectualiy from Synopsis
 First Cabied.

First Cabied.
 Pekin, May Administer Conger, MT. 'Townley, the British charge daffaires, and M. Uchida, the Japanese minister, have had several interviews recently with Grand Secretary Ching on the subject of the Russian -Manchurian ne- gotiations. Prince Ching at first was reserved, but he subsequently, discussed the question with greater freedom. The document enlbodying Russian demands is lengthy and portions are vague, al- though it's effect does not differ from the synopsis first cabled.
 M Plancon, the Russian charge d af- faires, has issued 8 denial, similar to the one issued from St. Petersburg, as- serting that the only conditions fornlu- lated are those necessary for the pro- tection of Russian interests.
 The text instead of absolutely pro- hibiting the opening of new ports and admitting foreign consuls, prohibits these steps being taken without Rus sia's consent, which the interested par ties construe as meaning the same thing.
 The Russian ambassadors assur- ances to Foreign Secretary Lansdowne that the negotiations concerned Man. churia alone are confuted in the text, which stipulates that the administra- tion of Mongolia is to remain unchang- ed, and states vaguely that Russian in- terests are paramount in North China and that only Russians should be em- ployed there. ., ,r . t.
