NOTICE SERVED ON
 TELEGRAM PROPRIETOR

Attorney NJ. J. Byrne, counsel for Mae DeVandelier in her case against Paul Martone. in which the main- tenance of plaintiff and her one child. minor, is involved, had a notice served upon Charles J. Sawdey. propri- etor of the Sunday Telegram, and Ar> thur H. McKechnie, editor. asking for retraction of the report of the trial of the case before Justice Carmody, published in the paper last Sunday.
 Mir Byrne alleges that in several places of the article complained of his client was referred to as notorious" and that it contained a number of other libelous statements. greatly re- flecting upon her reputation.
 The notice states that the publica- ton was false and malicious and Mir Eyrne added to-day that even if re. traction is given it will only show that the article was not prompted by malice "aforethought," and that there will still remain grounds for libel suit.
 Mir Sawdey is reported to have said that if his paper is obliged to give any further notice to the matter it win not help the case of Mir Ryrne's client a particle, and that if proceedings for libel are instituted he will be ready to meet them.

CHANGE OF GRADE.
Some Property Owners Asxisus About Grand and South Willow Streets.

Some of the big property owners
 about town are very much alarmed
 over the proposed change of grade on
 Grand and South Willow streets, and
 want to know if it would have been
 n proper subject to put to the board of
 aldermen before agreeing with the
 railroad as to what should be done.
 One of the real estate men got so hot
 this afternoon over the idea of q
 couple of men running the town with
 out consulting the proper authorities,
 he swore that he has made up his
 mind to dispose of every bit of real es-
 tate he owns as soon as he can get it
 off his hands. He does not think that
 similar conditions exist in other towns
 and wants to know why Waterbury
 should be the exception. The gentle
 man may be all Tight, but he is foolish
 to lose his temper over it. The alder
 men don't amount to much in Water bury, and the man who appears to feel hurt at what is being done now and
 didn't know this before cannot lay claim to being a close observer. Why i most things of importance are done long before the aldermen even hear of them. It is amusing at times to see
 the aldermen looking wise thinking that they, were acting on an entirely new street while as q matter of fact
 it had been laid out and equipped With year prior to the time it got to the al sewers and water mans probably q
 dermen. This is the kind of work that got the city and everybody else into the box at the Mulcahy school The
 mayor and the engineer fixed things up to suit themselves and their friends and now the trouble seems to be how to straighten out the snarl. It is q great pity that any set of public off cials can do business in this way and escape punishment. It is piracy of the
 rankest kind and citizens are suffering from such tactics right along, but mo- body appears to be able to suggest a remedy and there is not any so long as the aldermen allow everybody to ride over them.

CITY LOST CASE
 TO NAUCATUCk ROAD

The appeals of the Consolidated Railroad Go from the city's assessment for paving Bank and Meadow streets in 1890 and 1892 were decided against the city yesterday by Judge Silas Bronson in the superior court iB New Haven. The railroad company was represented by Attorney Gillette and the city by Judge Burpee. The joint assessment against the railroad amounted to $413.33. The facts in the case were found by Attorney Henry C. Wllite. a committee appointed for that purpose.
 Judge RObinson's decision in part read as follows:
 .'I am of the opinion that there are. upon the facts found by the commit tee. no benefits from which the rail road company can. under the law of this state. be assessed. Said assess ment should accordingly be annulled and said orders and action of said board of compensation should he set aside with costs for the plaintiffs
