GRIFFIN
 IS HELD. He Falsified Books in His Charge.
New Haven Man Who Got Away With About $2.lOO of Smedley Bros Money.

New Haven, Oct 2.-Charles E. Grif- fin, formerly confidential clerk and bookkeeper for the Smedley Go of this city, was bound over to the superior court to-day charged with embezzle- ment of $2,1O0 from the firm and mak- ing false entries in the books. He waived examination and pleaded not guilty.
 When City Attorney Simpson asked that the bond be fixed at 5000, Grif- fms counsel, Attorney Philip Pond, made a long and earnest plea for re- duction of the bond. Mir Pond said that Griffin's wife Is very i'll and prob ably dying and that 1t is her wish that her husband may be with her in her last days. If the bond were fixed at S5,000 it would be probably prohibi- tive, said MT Pond, and his client would be compelled to remain in jail pending his trial in the superior court at the October term. In reply the city attorney said that the plea of Attorney Pond would have more weight had Griffln's offense been a single one in- stead of continuous offense, embrac- ing many separate acts. Judge Ma thewson on the bench decided that un- der the circumstances he could not re- duce the bond, and Griffin was remand ed to jail.

T0UGHs IN CAR.
Patrons of Third Avenue Attacked by Band of
 Robbers.

New York, Oct 2.-For three-quarters of mile a Third avenue trolley car, with its passengers defending them selves behind seats from the knives of a gang of toughs in the car, ran at top speed to-day to a point where police assistance could be obtained. The car was coming down town from Fort George, pleasure resort, very earl! in the day. As it passed through al- most deserted streets four men on ths rear platform smashed the rear win dows and began climbing over the backs of seats, fighting their way to- ward the front end of the ear. Every seat was made breastwork by the male passengers in the car, who moved the women to the front end of the car and defended them there. The four toughs had knives and billies in their hands, but were greatly outnumbered by the passengers. From 125th street the fight continued. The motorman ran block after block keeping look out for policemen. At Eighty-ninth street he saw one officer and stopped. This patrolman summoned six other officers before he could arrest the fight CTS. William J. Glennon, 21 years old, was taken from the car with a stab pound. Four were arrested.

JEWS ATTACKED
Pelted With Stones While On Recreation Pier
 Yesterday.

New York, Oct 2.--Some 2,000 Jews were attacked on the Pike street recre. ation pier on the East river front yes terday by two score Italian and Irish laborers. They were pelted with stones and several were hurt. The assault was kept up until the arrival of the police, when three of the assailants were arrested. There appeared to be no reason except hOodlumism for the attack.
 The Jews had gone to the river front to observe the Tishla, an ancient cere- mony which occurs on the second day of the Jewish new year, and consists principally of the recitation of a prayer. They had scarely begun the ceremony when the assault tool place \ panic followed when one after an- other of the people was struck and knocked down. A dozen policemen were hurried 10 the scene. All but three of the assailants escaped. An ambulance call brought physicians who dressed the wounds of the injured

Budapest, Hungary, Oct. 2-Deputy Zoltan Lengyal, leader of the radical wing of the coalition party, wants to inaugurate mutiny of all the Hun garians in the Austro- Hungarian ar- my in support of the coalition de- mands. M. Lengyal in an open letter published today, calls on, all the Hun garians in the army to lend their aid in supporting the nations desires. All Hungarian born officers of the reserve and all non-commissioned officers, he contends, should refuse to obey or ders issued in the German language. The deputy also proposes social boy colt of German and Austrian officers by the Magyar population. The pun ishment of the mutinous troops, he points out, is impossible as there would not be men enough left in the army to deal with the Hungarian pro teStOrS,

4 GOOD SHOWING.
Lowest Death Rate in One Hundred
 Years at Nsw York.

New York, Oct 2.-New York city, according to the report of the depart ment of health, made public yesterday, is blessed with the lowest death rate in more than one hundred years. In the matter of births and marriages the report also fails to support the race suicide theory as 1t is shown that more persons have been married and more births recorded within the last six months than ever before.
 The report covers period from January to June 30, 1905, and shows that the death rate has diminished from 22.24 per cent to 1923 per cent per 1000 as compared with the core spending period last year. This calcu- lation is made on an estimated popu- lation of 3,93S000. The census returns lof the department of health indicates a much larger population, which will give crude death rate of about IS and corrected rate of little over 17, the lowest recorded since 179S.

BULL FIGHT STORY.
Men Who Enjoy the Sport in the Far
 West

w tSl.
 Chicago, Oct "A dispatch to the Record Herald from Los Angeles, Gal, says: A bull fight, with the attach ments of a comic opera thrown in, was held at Santa Monica yesterday. The action was there, but of gore there was none, but the bulls were clad in football armor until they were twice their natural size and looked as if they had eaten something that had caused serious internal disorders.
 The matadors were similarly attired and when one, hampered by his pad ding, was unable to escape the charge of bull the impact resembled a col lision between two feather beds.
 The fight was more on the order of limited round pugllist contest, ill that the palm of victory was awarded on points. The judges decided in ev- cry instance in favor of the bulls, which would mean in Spain that the matador should commit suicide, as he swears to kill the animal or be killed by 1t. Up to a late hour last night the defeated matadors were pleading '.manana" and other dilatory phrases in explanation of their failure to end their lives and thereby wipe out dis grace of defeat.
 The most amusing incident of the battle occurred when the judges. who represent the president In Mexican bull fights. announced their decisions. With one accord the two dozen mata- dors flung their arms wildly into the air, swore in Spanish and shouted Mexican defiance at the decision.
 Originally the intention was to hold genuine bull fight, with plenty of blood shedding. but the authorities in- terfered. It was the first event of the kind ever held on American soil on the Pacific coast.

THE KINGS SPEECH.
Was Read in Throne Room to Mem.
 bers of Riksdaa.

Stockholm, Sweden, Oct 2.-The special session of the riksdag sum- moned to deal with the treaty of Karl stad assembled in the throne room to- day and listened to the kings speech which in the absence of King Oscar was read by Christian Lundeberg, the minister of state. The members then repaired to their own chambers, where the treaty was submitted to them In the form of royal proposal, attached to which were the cabinets recom- mendations for it's ratification. These recommendations pointed out that the riksdag's conditions were all fulfilled as the notifications reached in the course of the Karlstad conference were all within the scope of the riks- dag's terms for giving It's assent to the dissolution of the union of Sweden and Norway. The distance of the fort ress of Konginger from the frontier 1t was asserted is so great that It does not menace Sweden, so 1t will be al- lowed to remain.

PALMA IN DANGER.
Attempt Made to Assassinate Him by
 Drowning.

New York, Oct 2.-An attempt to as sassinate President Palma by drown ing has been made, according to cable dispatch to the Herald from Havana dated October 1. Details of She plot came out only Sunday, however, and then by accident.
 The correspondent for the Herald made inquiries as to why the president was not using his special car to trayd to and from Havana, as has been his custom, and was informed that recent ly wedges had been found driven Into a bridge over which he passed, the wedges being so arranged that had his ear struck them at anything near its usual speed it would have been thrown into the water with him. Fortunately, however, the car was running slowly and passed over the Instructions in safety.
 The danger was not recognized until afterward. Since that time President Palma has been driving the seven miles to his home, always accompanied by secret service police.
 President Palma will not leave his summer home for several days.

SOFT C0AE GOES UP.
Scarcity of Cars is Given as Rsa-

Philadelphia. Oct. 2-Because of the scarcity of cars, soft coal has ad vapced to $125 ton at the mines. Prominent operators say that unless relief comes within the next few days teh wholesale price will reach S2 a ton.
 Not in months has there been such demand for bltuminous coal as at this time. Notwithstanding the un- 'usual demand. the larger operating companies say there is more coal above ground at this time that three years ago when the last strike was pending. They attribute the activity to scare which has taken possession of consumers.

NO DEFINITE STEP.

London, Oct. 2-Koretiyo Takaha- , shi, the financial agent of Japan, who soon returns to America, says there is no definite project for new Ja- panese loan nor have steps been taken for the conversion of the old loans. He anticipated however that the finan- cial program to be submitted at the coming session of the diet will pro pose new loan to liquidate the high priced bonds now outstanding. The last loan is still intact and will suffice to repatriate the Japanese armies in Manchuria and defray the expenses of their demoblllzation. Regarding pensions and compensation to widows and others, they will be paid in gov ernment bonds which are more likely to remain in possession of the bene- ficiaries than cash.

We are presuming that you are a prospective piano purchaser, or possi- bly, you want an organ or piano. We are also presuming that you are the head of the family, and that you have children in whom you take great pride and would like to give them start in music.
 You have had this in mind for some time, but for one reason or another you have put the matter off from time to time. You have said to your self, "The kind of a piano I want is beyond my reach" or "The terms re- quired are more than I can meet con veniently," or you may have said.
