Meeting Held in High School to Line
 Up for Season.

A call for candidates for the High school football team for the comlI,g season was issued to-day and N meet ing of the students who responded to the call was held in one of the school rooms.

The men should show a healthy spirit in athletics and support the different teams. Another meeting will be held tomorrow. when a manager will prob ably be elected. A captain will also have to be appointed, as George Mo Donald, who was elected to the posi- ton this year, has not returned to school.
 The outlook for the team Is brighter than for several years past. Thirty persons responded to the call for call didates to-day and it is expected that this number will be increased inside of a week. There is some likely mn, terial among the candidates and all that is needed to turn out q first class team is for the men to practice regu- larly.

THE CITY
 ENDOWED
Must Keep Paving
 Blocks Off Walk.
K. K. Brown Gets Out an Injunction He Asks for the Removal of Those AL ready Piled Up. at Once.

Robert. K. Brown is bound to see that the city and everybody else keeps at q respectful distance from his premises and is no way bashful about saying so in manner which nobody can misunderstood The other day Ire informed the trolley company and a few other corporations to keep on their own side of the street and this morning he had an fn- Junction granted by Judge Peasley and served on the city restraining it from using the sidewalk opposite Nos 96, 9S, 100, 102 and 1O4 East Main street, from making it a receptacle for the paving blocks which the, troll ley company Is removing preparatory to double tracking West Main street from Exchange place to a point oppo- site Polls theater. The papers were drawn up by Attorney Wood, the same legal light that collated all the facts for MT Brown in his great battle with the city over the Little brook imbroglio, in which the city got a bad black eye. City Sheriff Rigney SCANCNL IdG EpdpEl6# upOu# SJIly &4@ SlGTk Nettleton at II 80 o'clock this morn ing and the reception of the docu- ment created a profound sensation. MT Brown not only orders the blocks already stored on the walk in front of his premises removed, but he also expressly forbids them bling up any more there under penalty of fine of $1,000. The case is returnable to the courts on the first Monday in Oc- tober and if it comes off it will be the hottest legal fight that ever took place in Waterbury. The plaintiff contends that private individuals have rights in the streets and side walks abutting upon their premises which the city is bound by statute to respect and he does not propose to sit idly by and see these rights trampled upon while he has an arm to defend them.

LARKIN'S PENSION BILL.
The Commissioner Is Busy Prepar.
 ing His Scheme.

Commissioner of Education Larkin is hard at work on his bill for pension ing the school teachers He expects to have 1t ready before the legislature sits next January, but considering the project to be covered in the proposed enactment he will not have any time to spare in preparing it.
 It is MT Larkin's idea to draw the money on which the, tension fund shall be established frot three or four sources, the city, the state, the teach CTS themselves and liquor licenses.
 When a teacher loses time through illness or any other cause, the money she is now paid shall go to the pension fund. The receipts from liquor li- censes will supply a large part and the. city and state will set aside a DOT. ton of their receipts. Considerable legislation must take place before the matter is thoroughly complete, and MT Larkin is prepared to meet it.

THIRD WARD REPUB-
 LIcANS WHIPPED IN

The Third Ward Republican club held a meeting last night and did all in it's power to smooth over the alleged or real hostility of large number of the members to the re-nominatson of George l.. Lilley for congressman at large. It was said to-day that this is the outcome of a hint from the ma- chine to the effect that unless the club declared itself some of its prominent members would soon feel somebody's hand upon their heads and they would wonder what struck them, and they concluded, and perhaps wisely, too, to get to shelter before the storm came up and swept them into the grave of political oblivion The action taken last night ought to be suf1cent atone ment for such offenses as may have been committed against MT Lilley in the name of the Third Ward Republi- can club and it cannot but prove a statutory lesson to others in different parts of the town, who don't want to come under the lash of the whip. The club elected several new members.

COSTLY TUBELINE
Will Transport Packages at Rate of Two Miles a
 Minute.

Chicago, Sept 14.-Ass pneumatic tube, IS inches in diameter, between Chicago and Milwaukee, that will transport packages and mail between the two cities in 40 minutes-at the rate of more than two miles a n1in- ute-and give a fast express service to all the towns along the route, is proposed by a concern which has in- stalled pneumatic tube systems in some of the largest Chicago business houses.
 The cost of the line is placed at S5.0O0,00O. As the distance is about S475 miles, this is at the rate of S62,- 900 mile. Expenses of maintenance and operation will be so small, it is asserted, that the company can af- ford to carry freight at less than the price now charged by any common carrier.

' arid lands of the United States so as l to make them susceptible of cultiva- l tion; the settlement of the Alaskan boundary question; the vigorous, dig ! nifed, amicable policy in our dealings with foreign nations, and the steps that have been taken to extend the peaceful settlement of all international
 differences by arbitration.
 We pledge the support of our repre- sentatives in congress to the admins tration of Theodore Roosevelt i'll all that he may do to extend the principles of the peaceful arbitration of interna
 tional differences.
 The policy of the republican party for forty years has been such protec- tion as will develop American indus tries, and to the republican party alone
 can the people safely entrust the DOW CT of making such readjustment as
 business conditions may demand. We commend and highly approve
 the wise action of republic adm1n1s- tratiOns in the state of Connecticut For more than a quarter of century republican general assemblies have controlled and administered the affalfs of the state with wisdom, prudence and success. Direct state taxes have
 been abolished. The revenues of the
 state for fifteen years have been wise ly collected from railroad and 1nsuT- ance corporations, banking institutions and other sources which formerly yielded no revenue to either the stare | or it's municipalities With the grow ing prosperity and wealth of the state the revenue from these sources has constantly increased so that during
 the last eight years the general assem- bly, has been able to appropriate large sums of money for the support of schools. humane institutions, sick ana
 wounded soldiers, the improvement or
 state highways, agricultural aHalrs and reformatories for boys and girls
 The increase of state income in the
 last eight years has been very large Iy in excess of the increase in dis
 bursements. During the last five years the state treasury has been able, from the surplus revenues, to pay $2,2SS,OO0 for the improvement of school fac1lI- ties for children in the small towns of
 the state, and for good roads, deserve
 our special approval and commenda-
 tion.
 We recognize the fact that both cap-
 ftaI and labor are entitled to protection
 under our laws. Conflicts between
 employer and employees should be
 avoided if possible by amicable con-
 ferences, and when these fail, fmpar- tial arbitration should be sought. We therefore advise that additional power should be conferred by the next gen. eraI assembly upon the state board of mediation and arbitration.
 We endorse the nominees of this
 convention to the electors of Connecti-
 cut and declare they are thoroughly en-
 titled to their support at the coming
 election.

 CASUALTY LIST

Chicago, Sept. 14.-To check the growth of the casualty list, resulting from the rush of modern industrial life, the First Aid society of Chicago has been organized to instruct workers how to deal with injuries in emergen- cies. Free classes for the employees of commercial and industrial establish ments will be conducted. It is not the aim to produce amateur doctors and surgeons, but to impart such instruc- tion that when an accident occurs the victim may be intellfgently handled and life preserved until the arrival of a doctor. Several prominent physi- clans are at the head of the medical board of the society.

NOT GENERALLY KNOWN.

St Petersburg, Sept 14.--12:35 ID. m. The fact that the government of the United States through Ambassador McCormick, had opened negotiations with the Russian government, with the object of obtaining recognition of Jewish passports in Russia is not gen erally known here. Even the Journal De St Petersburg, the semi-oficial orr gan of the foreign office, receives the reports drifting back through the for eign press with incredulity. The Journal refers editorialIy to what it calls Simplifying" article in the Paris Steele, representing President Roose- welt as a new Moses seeking to nm pose on Russia liberal treatment of Russian Jews naturalized in the United States and Pabedonostseff, Drocurer general of the holy synod), as Russia's evil genius and says:
 Have those who have written or inspired the article weighed the tenn erity of the Chimera, realization of which would be an insult to Russia 7
 After arguing at length the reasons for the Russian Jewish laws the Journ- al proceeds: ssWashington says Your restrictive laws are barbarous. We condemn them. We will break them Washington claims that Russian Jews naturalized in the United States are entitled to escape the laws of the em- pire, or the dignity of the United States would be surrendered No, a thousand times no. The prestige of the United States will not suffer. We deny, and always will deny that a for eign country has the right to make overtures for. the classification of our population under the fiction of rights acquired by naturalization in Ameri- ca. A simple statement Of the case demonstrates it's enormity. American citizens are always welcome and will always enjoy treatment similar to the citizens of other countries. But that does not prevent our specifying con- ditions under which foreign subjects can enter the empire. If we wished to limit immigration as America does, who would deny our right to do so? Even if we reserved to ourselves the right of limiting the domiciliary privileges of native born Americans who were not, christians, we would have the right to do so. Consequently with greater reason we have the right to stop refugee Russian Tsraelites who might 20 to the United States and sim ply exchange passports to swarm back afterwards, sweep away the territorial dikes and upon the slightest provoca- ton appeal to the ever yigilant pro tention of the eonsuIates of the land with which, as a matter of fact, they have no tie. Under artificial protec- ton they would thus create a sore body polite Once more, we refuse to believe that President Roosevelt, who has given so many evidences of po1itf- cal tact. has entrusted the American ambassador at St Petersburg with such a mission"
 Further answer has been given to MT Mccormick in the matter, but all hope that Russia will even undertake to entertain the American proposals is practically abandoned.
