STORM IN THIS STATE.

One Man Drowned in New Haven Hars
 bor-Big Films Injured.
 New Haven, Sept 7.-Southwestern Connecticut came within the radius of the storm which swept up the Atlantic coast yesterday and the fury of the elements did greater damage than any disturbance of like character in the month of September for great many years. The full brunt of the wind was felt at Bridgeport and along that por- tien of Long Island sound shore to- wards the west. Inland few miles the wind seemed to have spent it's force and suggested only an ordinary disturbance This city got gooi taste of the storm, for the high wind ripped up and mutilated the elms on the city streets and especially at the green to an extent that was surprising.
 Wind. rain and a phenomenally hfgn tide combined to make the damage m and about New Haven very extensive One fatality occurred. the victim being a young man employed on one of tho dredging boats in the harbor. Accord ing to eve witnesses he was actually blown overheard by the wind and sank before helD could be extended His name was Lawrence ONeal. Tho dredge and a craft attached to it were thrashing about in the rough waters during the height of the blow and an effort was being made to warp the dredge alongside of Q pier. It was while on deck helping to handle tho hawser that O,Neal was lost.
 Small craft all along the shore and those moored in the Quinnipfac river were thrown upon the shores and crushed by the surf. At the New Ha- ven Yacht club wharf especially was the damage heavy, and last night yacht owners were trying to save por- tions of the wreckage such as sails and spars. X fifty-foot cruising scnoo ! ner. the Fearless. owned by c. F. Hamilton of this city. was wreckec. Men at work on the harbor front say that the water was rougher than they could remember. At the Tomlinson bridge the spray after striking the truss work was carried over the teie- graph poles and trolley cars were noI permitted to cross. At high tide at o'clock last evening the waves broke at the steps of cottages which line the beaches and which have been thougns to be far above high water. Cellars or houses along the water front were inundated and much damage m the aggregate done.

SHOCKED BY TROLLEY POLES.
Italian Seriously Injured by Contact
 in New Haven

Italian Seriously Injured by Contact
 in New Haven.
 New Haven, Sept 17.--An Italian la borer, known as No 39, and empaoyed by the New Haven Gas Go, sustained a shock from electricity in Kimberly avenue Tuesday which was a rare cleo tric shock, and the incident illustrates the danger from e1ectrolysis near where electricity is commercially used.
 The lalborer had been excavating in the street near the Boulevard. Fumes of gas that had leaked from the joints of gas pipes partly overcame him, and he was told to get out of the ditch. He was assisted to the surface and. was backed up against one of the iron trol- ley wire support poles No sooner had his back come into contact with the pole than he fell fat on his face. He had received a shock from the cleo trfctiy running through the pole.
 The Italians shirt was wet with sweat from his work in the ditch, and the wetness, combined with other con- ditjons, gave him an electric shock. One of these conditions was the bare ness of the pole of the black asphaltum with which it was painted. Where his back came against the pole the paint had been faked off and his wet shirt came into immediate contact with the naked iron. His shirt was burned off just to the extent that the pole was bare of paint at the point of contact.

FIRE IN PARrREE's STABLE.
Building and Contents Damaged to
 Extent of S2,OO0.

Building and Contents Damaged to
 Extent of $2,O00.
 The fire. department was called about 5:45 o'clock last night to the corner of East Main and Brook streets where a savage fire was raging in Partree's livery stables. When the firemen arrived at the scene of the confia grafton the fire had gained much headway and the blaze was of no small dimension. The fire was in the upper part of the barn, where the hay and straw are kept In the lower part were IS horses and number of hacks and carriages. For fully five minutes after they arrived at the fire the fire 1addies were unable to get to work at the fire owing to the fact that the hacks and carriages and horses were being removed and the firemen were in danger of being knocked down by one of them. But once they started they quickly put an end to the fire, though it was difi- cult one owing to the dense smoke.
 The second story of the building was completely gutted and the roof was destroyed in several places. About five tons of straw, two and one-half COnS OL DaRpO nay anu 1CU UuSuelS OA oats were destroyed by fire and water. The loss is estimated at about $2,O0O by Chief Snagg. The building be- longs to the Chipman estate and is said to be insured.
 The explosion of a lantern caused the fire. In the Partree stable there was system by which the horses are fed their oats at the ringing of an alarm clock. It is self-feedfng de vice and when the alarm rings the proper amount of oats drops into the managers in the different stalls. Ow- ing to the bins of this apparatus being very narrow a lantern is used. While these bins were being filled last night the lantern exploded. Soon the upper part Of the barn was . mass of flames. The employees made rush to lead the horses to place of safety and to take valuable articles to safe place.
 As said befge when the firemen ar rived, they quickly placed the fire un- der control. But it was over two horus before they stopped work at the building

 WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.--Brigadier General Frank D. Baldwin, command ing the department of the Colorado, in his annual report urges the re-estab- lishment of the army canteen under proper restrictions and says:
 T have been deeply impressed by the very marked difference in disci- pline and general contentment among the enlisted men since the abolition of the canteen feature of the post ex- change. If men are unable to get a glass of beer in a decent and orderly manner in the garrison they will re- sort to the vile brothels which cluster around the borders of the reservation, where they drink all manner of alco- holic beverages and often sink into de bauchery and ruin.''

Real Estate and Rents
O'NEILL'S BULLETIN.

If you work in the Chase Rolling mill or the Waterbury Manufacturing Go you could not possibly do better than buy the house at No 3S and 40 West Farm street for $3,500. might shade this price little. It is good as a home and as an investment property, so is a two-family house I have on Wood street, five rooms each tenement, lot 5Ox15O.
 I have five room tenement on West Side Hill for $13.OO. At the present stage of the game have observed that five out of every ten people who come to me for rents have got to move with in a short time because the factories have bought up the houses where they have been living. They have got to move and they have got to live some where. Here is q house that will be rented twentyfour hours after this 'tad'' appears, so get move on if you want it.
