ARMY'S FATE in DOUBT.
japanese Nearing Moakden-RaiHs
Hamper Russian Retreat.

The fate of General Kuropatkin's army, 50
far as dispatches show, still hangs in the
balance No word has been received from
the Russian leader since Monday afternoon,
when the army was moving northward,
harassed by the Japanese on the rear A dis
patch from Moukden yesterday said that tbs
baggage train was passing through the city,
and that the heavy roads were retarding the
retreat. An action, the message added, was
going on fourteen miles away.
The reported humiliation of the Russian
rearguard is denied by the general staff at
St. Petersburg, and is not borne out by dis
patches, though the Russian capital is filed
with rumors of disaster. kilograms repeat
the reports of japanese force west of Mouk-
den, and Russian officials express fear lest
japanese gunboats may seriously hamper the
crossing of the Hun.
A land and sea attack on Port arthur IS
expected to-day, according to advices from
Che-Foo. The forts were subjected to a
heavy bombardment on September 2 end $,
and two Russian guns were dismounted. \
vessel loaded with provisions is reported 20
have run the blockade.
There are indications that Russia viii make
substantial concessions to the United States
and Great Britain respecting the treatment OF
foodstufs as contraband The report of the
Russian commission is expected to be sub
mitted to the Emperor to-day.

says that the city or town clerks are to have the keeping os the keys of the machines after an election. and that they are not to allow the keys out of ] their possession, nor let the machines be unlocked unless by order of the court. Mir. Daggett then says that the legislature has prescribed the time that l a vote must remain intact, but that in his opinion when the law was passed it did not mean six months idleness for the machines. He thinks that the ma chimes may be used at the election and after being kept locked for twenty days after the vote is registered they may i be returned to the company. l The second question is whether the parties authorized to get the machines would be justified, under the vote pass ed by the aldermen for their provision, to provide over twenty machines if more were needed, of if only twenty can be rendered under the vote in pro- viding machines for some wards and not for others.
 1 In reference to this the opinion says that the temporary leasing of machines is authorized by law and they can be used in either one or more wards, at the dicretion of the selectmen.
 The third question is whether the ma chimes could be used on a license vote or whether that would have to be taken separately. In reference to this the corporation counsel stated that it was la matter of great doubt at best whether it can be done or not, and he therefore said tha. he could not advise in this matter He thought, however, that this vote must be taken separately as pre- scribed by law.
 After listening to the reading of both these communications Alderman Wheel CT took the floor and moved that the ac- tion of the aldermen at the last meeting to use the machines at the coming spring elections be rescinded as there wa slikely to be too many complications arising from their rse. The speaker stated that there was but little ques- tion but what the machines would eventually be used altogether in this city, but that it would take larger time to make proper preparation for their use than the coming election af- forded.
 The motion to rescind was then unan- limously carried, after which Alderman i Wheeler moved that the whole matter be tabled. and this also was carried without a dissenting voice.
 Before any other business could be transacted motion to adjourn was car- ried.

IN MEMORY OF MAYER zUNDER
New B'nai Birth Lodge Formed t
 Forever Bear His Name

New B'nai Birth Lodge Formed to
 Forever Bear His Name.
 A fitting honor was conferred on the memory of the late Maier zunder when a new B'nai Birth lodge was founded in this city last Sunday which will for ever bear the name of the Maier zun- der Lodge" MT. Zunder was the founder of the first lodge of the order in this state, which is Horeb lodge of this city, and he was a man who during his entire life carried out the principles of the order, The Fatherhood of God and tkc RretferhnGas of Men.' No more fitting tribute could be paid to his memory than that of establishing a lodge which will always bear the name of the man who was the mainstay of the order in this state, and whose in- fiuence in the order throughout the en- tire country was in inspiration for pro- gressiveness.
 There were over forty charter mem- bers taken into the order, and the in- stallation work was done by Jacob and Joseph Ullman, assisted by Grand Dis trict Deputy Jacob Klein, of Bridge port, and the following Grand lodge of ficers Messrs Roeder, Ellinger, Hart man and Sulzberger. The installation took place in the rooms occupied by Horeb lodge in the Odd Fellows build ing, and was followed by a banquet and speech-making.
 The sons of Maier Zunder, Albert Theodore and Reginald, presented the new lodge with all the necessary para phernalia for carrying on the work, in- ciuding a magnificent gaveI and also a seal.
 Some idea of the great esteem in which the deceased was held can be gained from the fact that men of prom thence gathered from various parts of the country to attend the founding of the lodge. Among those present were Charles Ullman, of New York, former ly of this city; Moses Klein and $. Loe- with, of Bridgeport; Isadore and Sam uel Chase, Milton Veil, Lewis Slmons Leonard Aschein and Gilbert Green berg, all of Waterbury, and many oth- CTS.
 The two principal officers of the new lodge are Joseph H. Ullman, president, and Albert Zunder, monitor.
 Horeb lodge is rendering valuable as- sistance in getting the new lodge prop erly started, and from present indica- tions all the other lodges of the order in the state will soon have to look to their laurels, or the baby chapter will eclipse them all

(Continued from First Page.) carry out your order. I believe that thirty machines will be needed to equip all the wards, although if all the voters should exercise their prerogative on election day forty machines would be an insufficient number. This estimate is based on an estimate of one machine for about 800 voters.
 I deem it wise at this time to refer also to the statement contained in the corporation counsePs opinion in regard to the taking of a vote upon the license question by machines if such vote should be called for.
 Respectfully submitted,
 John F. Studley, Mayor.
 When the clerk had finished with the mayors communication he read a long. opinion from the corporation counsel on the subject The opinion discussed the various phases of the conditions concerning the using of the machines. The first question discussed was whether the machines could be return- ed to the owners. if used. by May 15, which would make it twenty-six days after they had been used at the elec- tion. In reference to this the corpora ton counsel says that Any machine may be released in less than twenty days for use in another election by or der of a court, if there is no disagree nlent as to the returns from such ma chimes" The report then goes on to

RAT BISCUITS FATAL.

Residents in the Vicinity of Sylvan
 Avenue Have Strewn Them Around
 and Several Valuable Dogs Have
 Been Poisoned.
 Some people in the vicinity of Sylvan avenue, who have evidently been trou- bled with rats. procured a supply of biscuits which are said to exterminate the vermin. and have strewn them around the neighborhood in the hope of having them accomplish their work. The food has unfortunately come un- der the notice of several of the canine tribe and has proved so tempting a morsel that several of those who have tasted it are no more.
 Among the dogs killed was a valua- ble hunting animal. the property of c. J. Atwood, of 45 Sylvan avenue. and valued at s2OO Mir Bowman, of Ward street, has also lost a valuable dog from the same cause. and several other parties complain that their dogs have also been poisoned.
