 If any young couple who are con- templating marriage, wish to see how to furnish home in a very artistic, economical manner, just glance at the furnished flat in the E. F. Dunphy Grocery Co.'S window.
 The bans of marriage were pub iished yeserday for the first time at St Patricks church between Miss Margaret LawIors of South Wilson street and Thomas Smith, business agent of the Carpenters and Joiners' union.
 People who like to see the streets quiet on Sundays claim that base ball is God-send to everybody that does not want to have to push their way through crowds at every turn of the road on Sunday. Yesterday the streets were deserted during the af- ternoOn and at night the base ball cranks were so tired from shouting they retired early, with the result that the best of order was noticeable in all parts of the district.
 Property owners in this part of the town east Of the Naugatuck rail- road and south of Washington avenue are puzzled to know the meaning of the movements of corps of survey ors that has been all through that dis trict surveying every parcel of land and taking the name Of the owner. The work was carried clear across to Railroad Hill street down to the edge Of the Naugataack river. A man who owns a building lot in that section told reporter to-day that he ques- toned the surveyors, but all he could get out of them was that they wanted to find out the size of his patch" Ii is quite likely that in short time the whole district south of Washing ton avenue and east of South Leonard street will be in the hands of the Con solidated Railroad Co.

SAILED FOR SMYRNA.
Leishman at Turkish Capital VIII be
 Backed by Fleet.

WASHINGTON Aug. S.-The Amen jean European squadron, commanded by Rear Admiral c. T. Jewell, sailed from Villefranche, France, for Smyrna yesterday morning to back up the en- deavors of Minister Leishman in be- half of American citizens in the sul- tan's domains. The squadron will await instructions at Smyrna. The trip will take about three days.
 Not only have these decisive orders. been given the European squadron, but it is expected the battleship squadron, which is due at Gibraltar today, will be detained in that vicinity. If neces- sary it will be sent to the eastern Medi- terranean to re-enforce the cruiser squadron.
 Secretary Hay suggested the advisa- bility of sending a squadron to Turk ish waters at the cabinet meeting. He had then just received word of the fail- ure of Minister Leishman to obtain satisfaction from the sultan in an- swer to the American demands. The cabinet concluded the situation had reached. a stage that called for a naval demonstration. President Roosevelt was fully in accord with the idea of sending the squadron to the east.
 It is probable the battleship squad ron would have been sent had 1t not been at sea and out of reach of cable. Under the circumstances it was felt that no time was to be lost, and orders were given the European squadron.
 The battleship squadron consists of the modern battleships Kearsarge, Ala bama, Iowa, Illinois, Maine and Mis- souri. It is commanded by Rear Ad- miral Barker and is the most powerful fleet of the navy. The European squad ron consists of the protected cruisers Olympia, Baltimore and Cleveland The cruiser Des Moines, sister ship to Nthe Cleveland and a new vessel, has been added to the European quadron and will start across the Atlantic on Aug. 20.
 Owing to the unsatisfactory proceed ure of the porte in meeting the requests of the American government, matters have gradually approached climax. The dispatches from Mr. Leishman, the American minister at Constantinople, are of the same tenor for many months past-that he was unable to obtain an audience with the sultan in which he could put before him the earnest re- quest of MT. Hay, the secretary of state, that American citizens and insti- . tutions be given the same guarantees and privileges accorded to France, Ger. many, Russia and Italy in the Ottoman empire.

him on the bridge.
The Mongolia Is to sail today from

officers of the Siberia which arrived
today from San Francisco, Captain
Porter who commanded the Mongolia
on her last trip, will still be in COM
mand of her. Captain Kinder, II was
understood, come out in command Of
