BRIDGEPORT NOTES.

Last year the track and park at Hun tington. Conn, was purchased by the duartette of Bridgeport men, Dr. T. F. Martin, Edmund Warren, Thomas Nor risey and o. J. Keenan,. These gentle- men gave a. race meeting at the track on Memorial day, when trotting, pac- ing and running races of half-mile heats were provided. The trotter Lun- da, 2:l6 1-4 went half mile in 1:1O, and repeated the performance in 1:10 1-2, which was considered a very creditable work out George Dayton was a winner with King Bird. MT. B. Hammond's bay trotter Mandays, by Antonio, was another winner. A good judge of speed remarked that in his opinion Onandago can show much fast CT with more work. >~~
 T. F. Donovarl's pacer Foxy Grandpa won part of the purse in his class.
 Dr. Martin, who managed the race meeting, stated that about five hundred tickets were sold at the gate, and that the net profit was about one hundred dollars, @ very gratifying result for the opening meet of the season, when other opposition attractions are considerer.
 During the summer of 1903 there was a good series of races during the entire season at Nutmeg Parg in the suburbs of Bridgeport. The first class sport that was provided was properly enjoyed by the horsenen of the Park City tBridgeport), and also by many horse fanciers from the Elm City (New Haven), many pleasant acquaintances being found during the races, while some lasting friendships were conn menced at the trotting meetings. It was at the Nutmeg Park races that we met such genial, companionable men as Dr. R. D. Martin, Stephen Osborn, Hon. Frank Miller, M. B. Hammond, Dr. T. F. Martin, H. s. Osborne, Edmund Warren, E. A. Godfrey, M. H. Noonan. George Dayton, Doctor Elwood, L. M. Davis, I. s. Coan, Luther M. Wright, John o. Shares and others whose names do not remember at this time It was a very pleasant trip from New Haven to the races referred to. During the season following, which was last year, there was no sport of the kind offered at the Nutmeg track which was much regretted by large number of men from this section who missed the sport that they had previously enjoyed

TAFT is GOING TO PANAMA
Secretary of War Planning a Trip 10
the Canal Site During the
Month of November.

Washington, Oct. 9.-Following the
announcement that it had been decided
to make no change regarding the de-
partment of the government which
should control the affairs of the Pan
anna canal, Secretary Taft announced
that he would go to the isthmus, unless
something unforeseen prevents. He
will leave Washington about the first
week in November, although conditions
may be such that he will be delayed
until the 18th. The decision to keep
the control of the canal in the war de-
partment, instead of transferring 1t to
the state department, was definitely
reached in a discussion that followed
a cabinet meeting. When Secretary
Taft returns from New York, in a few
DAYS, he will take up the question or
the finances of the isthmian canal COM
mission with President Roosevelt. The
great problem to be decided is whether
the work on the isthmus shall be car
ried on by money obtained by appro-
priations from congress, or whether con-
gress shall be asked to authorize the
issue of Panama bonds, the proceeds
of which will be applied to thereon
struction of the canal.

Two EmperOrs.

Washington, Oct. 10.-The treaty OF
Deace between Russia and Japan will
become effective upon its approval
without waiting the formal exchange or
notifications at Washington. This in
formation was impaired at the Japan
csc legation. This course has been de-
cided upon, in order that the speediest
possible termination of the war may
be had. The treaty, it is understood,
has passed through the necessary pre-
liminary stages of approval in each
country, and is now before the respec-
tive emperors Of Japan and Russia for
the royal signatures. AS soon as it has
been signed this fact will be commune
Gated by cable to the state department
at Washington, and the Washington
government will apprise each emperor
of the act of the other. With this ac-
complished, the wal will be at an end.
The formal exchange of notifications
will be carried out in Washington as
| soon thereafter as the signed treaties
reach here.

EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS
The Volume of Early Fall Trade,
While Not Quite So Active, StlAA
Larger Than Expected.

New York, Oct. 7.-Bradstreet's
weekly review says:
While not so active as in recently
preceding weeks, the volume of trade
still exceeds expectations. Contributing
to this are better reports from retail
lines. necessitating recorders of reason
able goods, fall festivals. charging
croD movement and a continued i'm
mense turnover in idustrial lines. Com
plants as to car shortages increase,
the grain, coal, coke, iron and lumber
trades all reporting congestion from
this cause. Undimilished activity is
witnessed in the iron trade, demand for
crude and finished products surprising
previous years at this period. Higher
levels of future cost, particularly as to
coke and ore, confront these trades
| Collections for the country as a whole
are good. Money is still moving to the
country and while in liberal supply
for ordinary trade purposes, higher
quotations at home and abroad seem
certain. Bank clearings testify to new
heights being reached for this season
of the year.

DECIDED NOT TO OPEN
The Peoria National Bank. of when
n. c. DOugherty Was President,
to Go Into Liquidation.

Peoria, Ill, Oct. 7.-As a direct result
of the indictment of N. c. Dougherty
for forgery, the directors of the Peoria
national bank, of which he was presi-
dent, announced shortly after midnight
that they decided to discontinue bust
ness and would call in the comptroller
of the currency to wind up the affairs
of the institution. The meeting OF d.
rectors lasted all evening behind closed
doors. 1t was admitted that a disas-
trousr run would be inevitable, and the
only recourse was to liquidate at once.
The loan of 100000 by the Peoria
clearinghouse was tied up in sucn
wise that it could not be accepted. lt
was learned that quiet Withdrawals
from the bank had been going on all
day, most of the calls coming from
banks in neighboring towns. The bank
was capitalized at $200,0 OO.
