WHAT NEWLANDS SAW
Nevada Senator Tells About In the Philippines.

San Francisco. Oct 24.-United States Senator Newlands of, Nevada. who has just returned from visit to the Orient, has made the following statement regarding conditions in the Philippines:
 "'rhe Philippines are very attractive and the people are interesting and ca pable of much development. The com mission is conscientiously working out the problems of good government with an eye single to the advancement and prosperity of the Filipino people. But the difficulties are great The Philip pines are passing through a depression perhaps unequalled in their experience, caused by succession of calamities. The islands are not prosperous. and the revenue is not sufficient to accomplish what the government has set out to do.
 ''The sugar and tobacco interests are Ianguishing. The suggestion of the ad- ministratIon is to restore these by giv. ing free access to the United States markets for their products. 1 am not convinced that this is the best method. The sugar industry is suffering be- cause of the calamities I have men toned and because Of the primitive methods of production. Our tariff duty on raw sugar. which Is nearly 100 per cent. has doubled the price O. sugar to the consumer. The Philip pine people can only get StD per ton for their sugar in the worlds market but in our markets with the duty of they can get STJ per ton Is it best for us 10 subsidize the Filipino sugar planters by giving them this extrs price at the American taxpayers ex- pense. or would it be better to aid them in securing through agriculture banks. or otherwise the means of re- forming their methods as to enable them 10 accept the worlds pricef believe that if would he much bette, to give the Philippines direct aid in the shape of loan on our credit fo- this purpose rather than to attempt the method of giving them artificial and subsidized prices for their pro duetss

PAGAN IN COURT
Woman Couldn't Identify Him-Some of the
 Others Did.

Bridgeport, Oct 24-An attempt was made to-day to identify John Pagan as the man who entered the residence of Mrs c. w. Morrell of Greenwich several months ago and shot her while making his escape. Mrs Morrell and her parents, with the servants of the house, visited police headquarters and made the attempt to identify Pagan as the man.
 In the office of Superintendent Bir- mingham twenty men, including police men in plain clothes, newspaper re- porters and Pagan, were stood in line. Mrs Morrell, who appeared very nerv- ous, failed to identify Pagan on two trials, picking out a policeman each time as looking like the man who shot her. The cook and the coachman failed to see anybody who looked like the glimpse they had of the man who escaped from the residence.
 James Fox and Della Burns, nurse, each picked out Pagan as the man. The Fox boy said that Pagan looked like the man who accosted him on the street i'll front of the AIOrrell resi- dence two or three days before the shooting. On this Identification Pagan will be taken back to Greenwich to- morrow for a hearing in the court there. He will be charged with at tempted burglary and assault with in- tent to kill.

Case Against Dwight Downs Began
 To. Day in New Haven.

The case of Marie Maloney against Dwight Downs to Set aside deed to property amounting to S3.5al0 was be. gun in the superior court this after- non i'll New Haven. Some years ago Edward McNally and his wife Eliza beth, lived ill Ansonia. In the natural course of events McNaIIy died. His widow survived him about twenty years. dying about three years ago in Ansonia. She had a number of heirs, nieces and nephews who naturally ex- pected to become her benehciaries. But to their surprise they found that Mrs McNally had deeded all of her property few weeks before her death to Dwight Downs. who 1t seems was most obliging and. kind nelghbof If anything went wrong in Mrs Me- Nally's house Mir Downs attended to it. If there was anything she wanted done that she could not do herself. Mir Downs did 1t for her He was quite q frequenter of her house with the re- suit that very friendly feeling sprung up between them and the wid- ow to compensate her obliging neigh- bor for all he had done for her. gave him all her property. Marie Maloney, one of the nieces brought suit to have the deed to the property set aside aI- leging undue influence and for the second time it was on trial to-day.

PRETTY BIG DROP
Railroad Franchise Reduced From
 $lo0, ,00o to $Is,o0D.

Chicago, Oct 24.-A dispatch to the Record Herald from Milwaukee says: Mayor Rose yesterday made sensa- tional charge that those back of the Milwaukee Southern road, which is trying to get an entrance into Mil waukee, had offered to sell the fran chise. provided they got one, for Sl0O.- GOO, and this offer being turned down they reduced the price to $15,00O This statement was made to the common council in a message. The mayor said: "The offer was made by the treasurer, s. E. Hall. I do not care to say to whom It was made or give any de- tails. but if the council wishes to in- vestigate the matter I stand ready to prove the charge
 To this statement Treasurer Hall came back with the reply: "It's lie. throw the charge back in the mayor s teeth. I challenge him to present his proof in public or otherwise"
 President H. c. Wood of the com pany wired from Chicago: There is absolutely no truth in the. statement that the pending franchise has been offered for sale for $1O0,000 or any other sum. We challenge proof of any such statement"
 Mayor Rose sticks to his original statement and says the offer to sell was made within a few days.

DUST AND ASHES
Bridge Street Residents Complain
 About Scovilrs Chimneys.

The residents of Bridge street are very much incensed at Scovilrs factory for not building their chimneys to such height that the dust would not fly over the verandas and houses in the vicinity. It seems that although the chimneys of the factory are rather high, on account of Bridge street being so much above the factory the wind carries all the dust and ashes and de- posits them upon the windows and verandas of the houses along the street nearby. The dwellers on the street think that something should be done to abate this nuisance. Of course they know that the factory officials mean all right, but that is poor consolation when on warm day, their windows being open the furniture and everything in the house becomeblac. with coal dust. Some one should look into the matter and see if there is any remedy for the thing, and if there is, let it be applied at once.

Prominent Residents of the Vile
 Will Ask for a Charter.
 Thirty i've or forty prominent resi- dents of Waterville have got their heads together and decided to apply for charter 10 form a division of the A. Q. H. in that section of Waterbury. They state. and very truthfully, too. that 1t Is a hardship on a man to at- tend meetings of the other divisions. all of whose halls are in the center. and reside in Waterville. while on the other hand if they had a division of their own with suitable headquarters in the vile things would be quite diff ferent. One of the parties interested in the formation of the new society informed a Democrat reporter today that the society will soon he launched and that inside of one year it will be the banner division of Waterbury. R the plans work all right. and there does not appear to be anything in the way, the new addition to the ranks of the organization will make six divis- ions of the order in this city.

THIS RAFFLES WAS
 NO MYTHICAL BURGLAR
Trusted Superintendent Caught in the Act and With Goods On Him-Had Played Sort of Jekyl and Hyde Existence for Years--Plenty of Booty Found iE His Living Rooms.

Mfddletown, N. T., Oct 24.-By the alleged confession of Charles Bo0s, until a few days ago superintendent of the Waikiki Transit Co.'S lines ill orange county, a spectacular police mystery has been solved. According to the police he admitted to them yes terday that he had robbed one Of the largest department stores i'll the city. besides several residences. in the last few months.
 Boos jestingly reminded the police that he himself had raised the hue and cry one night few weeks ago when burglar was chased out of the resi- dence of F. P. S. Crane, q wealthy man. He said the police were close on him before he got out of the house, and that he ran ahead of them shout ing ....
 Stop. thief! Catch that manw
 This ruse worked so we'll that Boos resorted to it again few nights later when he had forced his way into the home of J. l.. Pendleton and from which he was frightened by an alarm.
 Boos is regarded as a modern social highwayman. He drew a large salary as superintendent of the big transit corporation and lived in good style in apartments on one of the best streets in the city. He was popular in soclety and dressed in the latest fashion. He was apparently one of the busiest men in town, had no time for anything but his work, and seemed an exemplary man of business.
 Great was the amaZement when it became known last Friday that Boos had been arrested and locked up. The charge against him was made by off cials of the transit company It was charged that the superintendent had stolen large quantity of copper wire from the company and sold it to q junk dealer.
 A subsequent search of Boos' fine apartments revealed plunder for which the police Have been looking and which it is alleged was taken from a depart nzent store and private residences. Confronted with the goods, Boos 1t is said confessed.
 Boos' bachelor apartments were the best in town and. incidentally, he had added to their comfort by tapping the wires of the company from which he drew large salary and furnishing his rooms with five incandescent lights.
 The police learned yesterday that Boos has been shipping large boxes of goods to persons in Reading, Pa. and they are convinced he was using this means to dispose of booty.
 Boos' parents live in Reading. He was held for the. grand jury. ta.

HUGHES RESTS
Associate Counsel Takes a Hand in Insurance
 Scandal.

New York, Oct 24.-Em0ry McClin- tock, actuary of the Mutual Life In. surance Co, was expected to answer questions before the insurance investi- gating committee when it resumed it's sessions to-day, as to why the diyi- dends of the company had decreased while the salary of President McCurdy was being increased to $150,00O q year. In q previous hearing the coun- sel for the committee had produced letters from policy holders of the Mu- tual Life Insurance Co complaining that the dividends of their policies had been greatly reduced since 1876. One New York city policy holder wrote to theNcounsel for the committee that his policy in 1876 drew dividend of $55.76, but the dividend had been grad ually cut until in 1904 the policy re- eeived but $3 as dividend. The writer enclosed statements from the com pany's' reports and declared that the reductions were made in the face of Increases in the companys reserves year after year.
 To all questions on that point Presi- dent McCurdy in the hearing on Wednesday replied that he was not fortified with the information required, but that it could be obtained from the actuary of the company. When pressed for an answer Mir McCurdy had repeated, T decline to discuss the question" He did not admit, however, that he did not know.
 AIr McClintock was the first witness today Mir McKeen, of counsel to the committee, who has made study of the technical points of life insurance. conducted the examination of Mir Me Clintock. The witness said he had been an actuary of various companies since 1868. He became actuary of the Mutual Life Insurance Co in 1889. He was president of the Actuarial So- ciety of America from 1893 to 1897 and has been fellow of the Institute of Actuaries of Great Britain since 1874.
 MT McClintock supported the state ment made on the stand by John A. Mccall, president of the New York Life Insurance Co. as to the causes leading to the many failures during the early days of insurance in this state. The companies failed, said MT McClntock, because they had nothing to support them but the current pre- miums. The Metropolitan, Life Insur- ance Co. the witness continued, was on the verge of failure at one time, but managed to prosper by adopting the industrial plan of insurance.

NEWTOWN
 BANK.
An Unsuccessful At-
 tempt to Rob It.
Safe Blown Open Bur Only Ten Dollars Was Taken - Robbers Escaped in Automobile.

Newt0Wn, Conn.,, Oct. 24-An unsuc- cessful attempt to rob the Newtown Savings bank was made early today. Burglars entered the bank by remov- ing the iron grating of a window and blew open large safe, but secured only S10.J Another safe in the bank was not molested. the burglars taking flight after the first explosion. It is believed that they made their escape in an automobile which was seen go- ing north from Newtown about ? O. clock this morning.
 All the negotiable securities of the bank are kept in a safety deposit vault in Bridgeport and aside from the ready cash necessary for business, there was nothing in the bank last night except the books, mortgage deeds and insurance papers. These papers with a number of old garments which had been used to muff1e the sound of the safe-cracking. were found by the cashier to-day scattered about the floor. The Newtown Savings bank is q wealthy one. having deposits of $S5G,00 with a surplus of S75,000. It was established about fifty years ago. David c. Peck is president of the in- stitutfon..
 It is supposed that the break was committed between 1 and ? o'clock a. m About that time Rev J. H. George who lives near the building of k H. Beers X Co. where the bank is located, was awakened by an unusual noise, and notified the operator at the telc- phone central station which is in the building with the bank, that he thought some one was proving about the place. The operator took walk around the building but saw and heard nothing unusual. Ten or twelve years ago another attempt was made to rob this bank. This also was uu- successful.
