OUT IN THE STREET
Mother and Four Chlldfsn Were
 Evicictsd Yesterday.

Last night the attention of Com
 missioner Combellack of the depart ment of charities was called to the i'm poverished condition of Mrs James Smith and her four children, one a baby in arms. The woman was eyict- cd from the house she occupied early in the day and remained at the corner of Pond and Denny streets until neigh bors reported the situation and the family were taken 10 the Brookslde home. They had very little to eat dur
 ing the day and were preparing to spend the night out of doors with scant covering when they were taken in charge and given a place in one of the finest buildings in the city. It was a pretty hard case and those who know the facts feel indignant at the landlord. not for putting them out. but because he allowed them 10 remain in the neigh. borhood all day without notifying the authorities. Mrs Smith says sine call. ed at the office of the board of charl ties herself. but if so. probably the person she talked with didn't think things were as bad as she said. be- cause it is not unusual for woman 10 represent that there is not a bite to eat in the house. when investigation shows that there is enough to get along with for time. Evictions are rare ir Waterbury. but when they do occur and the parties forced out on the street and have no where to go. the first person who hears of if should re port to the department of charities.

The pride of every housekeeper is
 her table service. and nothing adGs so much to her pleasure as the ability to place on her table a few pieces of cut glass; but cut glass is luxury in which the ma jority of housekeepers cannot indulge. This fact has encOur- aged manufacturers to search for substitute and they have found it in Pres-Cut, which is made heavy and in cut glass patterns. The process used not only strengthens the ware but gives it the brilliancy of the genuine cut, and this lustre will last as long as the article itself. We have an as- sortment of this ware and the price is no more than the same styles made in common glass. Come and examine it.

W0ODBURY TROLLEY.
h Another Year 1t Will Be in
 Operation.

Common report has it that the Wood
 bury and Waterbury Trolley com
 pany is an adjunct of the Connecticut
 Railway and Lighting company. bul
 this report is positively denied by the 1 treasurer and major stock holder Al torney \. k. Bronson. The president ! of this company is John k. Sewell, gen i eral manager for the Connecticut Rail- way and Lighting company and the
 treasurer is MT Bronson. The board ] of directors consist of Mir Sewell, Rob- I ert r. Griggs. Attorney Lawrence l.. l Lewis. Attorney N. R. Bronson, and c. [ H. Skilton.
 1 Speaking about the company and it's ! prospect of reaching Woodbury. Mir Bronson said to-day that all but two deeds now stand in the right of way and he expects to get them in few
 days. The layout has been surveyed
 and as soon as the two deeds in ques- tion have been obtained the work of
 grading will begin and the actual work
 of laying the tracks will start probably in month. MT Bronson takes the
 lawyers view of the situation and is
 very careful not to make too sanguIne expressions. He expects the road will
 be running to WOodbury touching at
 Quasapaug. and on to Hotchkissyille early next July. He is of the opinion that if the contractors took the same care in proceeding with the work on the Waterbury Cheshire line as he pro- poses to have taken on Woodbury and
 Waterbury line. the former road would be running full blast three weeks ago
 Mir Bronson proposes to have the grade made first, then allow the land to set tie. The contractors on the Water bury-Cheshire line laid the tracks as they graded and this accounts for the trouble at Summit where the tracks have been sinking and sinking for weeks up to few days ago. The Wa terbury- Woodbury line will take freight as well as passengers. the first line in the state to engage in this en- terprise, and considerable business Is expected with Hotchkissville which is quite populous community.
 "Mr Sewell was made president of the company for convenience sake,' said Mir Bronson. of course we will have 10 do business with the Connec- ticut Railway and Lighting company and they will have to do business with us, and it will facilitate matters very much by having Mir Sewell president of our company. He Is practical man in matters of this kind, and he knows all the ropes. so for our mutual advantage We made him president
 We expect to do great business in freight. particularly with Hotchkiss- vile. The main street of that town Is about mile and half long. thickly populated on both sides and naturally we will bring a good deal of business to Waterbury from that source.
 We expect 10 be doing business by this time next year, but of course one can never tell. They expected to be 1 running cars to Cheshire two weeks | ago and they are not running yet, so | you see you cant ever tell what is going to turn up. We will have 10 cross swamp, perhaps. and that may | cause us some delay. But if we are not running by this time next year I | will be greatly mistaken"

A CHINESE PROTEST.
Roosevelt and Root Confer Rsiardini
 Note to Powers.

OYSTER BAY, x. r.. July 22.-Pres. ident Roosevelt and Ellhu Root. who has assumed formally his new position as secretary of state. were In confer. ence last night at Sagalnore Hill
 Among the many questions considered
 by them none is fraught with deeper significance and importance to the
 United States than is that relating to an Identical note which the foreign office of China within a day or two has sent to the powers neutral in the far eastern contest between Russia and Japan.
 The text of the note, which is brief. was made public last evening by Pres ident Roosevelt.
 The text of the note. which is undat- ed. follows:
 Having viewed with profound re- grst the unfortunate interruption of peaceful relations between Japan and Russia. the imperial government now learns with sincere eradication that negotiations are about to commence for the restoration of peace and amity But in the present conflict Chinese ter ritory has been made the tbester of military operations.
 Therefore it is hereby expressly de clared that no provision affecting China. without the approval of China being previously obtained. which the treaty of peace may contain will be recognized as val.d''
 On its face the note appears 70 be a simple declaration that no detsrmina- ton of the peace conference affecting Chinese territory will be recognized as valid without the approval of China previously obtained" IL really means for more than that. as if is construed here. The United States in common with other nations is interested par ticularly in the open door in Man churia. and behind Chins's simple declaration lies the whole question Of the commerce and the commercial re- lations of great empire.
 Far eastern advices reaching the state department tell of the marked effect upon the Chinese of the unbro- ken series Of victories gained by Japan over Russia. Not only has the govern ment been affected. hut the people have come to regard Japan in a new light. and the diplomatic corps si Pc king has already begun to discuss the probability of an alliance between China and Japan
 On this point high official a dipIe- mat thoroughly coenizsnt Of the situa- ton st Peking snd in touch with off cisl and popular feeling in Chins. states

Bank of Montreal would not take them After
a brief discussion it voted unanimously TO

the shareholders said they would take Bank of
Montreal stock in place of cash for their hold
ings, which will make the present value of Peo-
