cording to one of his business repre-.
sentatives, he has not been alto.
gether pleased with the artistic Side
of his play. although he himself was
silent on the subject.
II have studied the conditions here,
and especially those Of the wealthy
class" he said, 'but l am not quite

a book on this subject"
Asked regarding the Shaw play,

that the cream has risen into the TOP

begin with weak food.
The dangers arising from insufH.

should not at first exceed 1 per cent.
Take, therefore, five ounces of tor

fourteen ounces OF water.
Add to this six and half drachms
OF sugar equivalent to an addition
Of 4 per cent. to the mixture). The

MCCLELLAN GAINS
Mayor Advances to Two and a Half
to one-Distrfet Attorney
100 to IS.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-Betting on
the results OF the Mayoralty contest
came to standstill yesterday over
a deadlock on the odds. Mcclellan,
In the Wall street betting. gained
slightly, the majority of the bets be-
Ing made at az to as compared
with to l on the previous night.
WINS and Hearst betters demanded
the odds of 3 to l. AS a result yery
Few wagers were laid. The odds
closed 2h to on Mcclellan, with the
Hearst and WINS supporters demand.
ing to L. 1t was estimated that full.
ly $4,000 in Hearst money was wait.
ing for such odds. On the other
hand $4,000 was waiting to be placed
on Mcclellan at 21a to 1.
Jerome became a favorite, the odds
favoring him frightening until al
the close 100 to 40 was offered and
taken. A week ago the odds were
2 to 1 against Jerome. AT the open.
ing there was considerable supply
OF jerome money waiting to be placed
at 10 to s. No bets were made at
that price and the odds heightened to
10 to Z.
On one bet was made at these fig.
ures. De Witt Rosenheim bet 81 900
to $500 with NJ Cornell on Jerome.
Before the noon hour three different
brokers offered odds of 10 to G on
Jerome. and then to was quoted
for several hours. AT three o'clock
the best money that could be obtained
against jerome was 40 to 100. The
Jerome supporters would not give
these prices and the betting rested.
One bet OF 100 to As was made at
the close however, showing the pre-
ponderance of sentiment among the
speculative element in favor of Jer.
ONE. Among the stock houses which
laid money on Jerome at 10 to 6 for
their customers were Halle &
Steiglitz, W. Content, E. l.. Gilbert
and Anness & Newman. The latter
laid $4,000 to $1,000 in two bets on
Jerome. Williamson & Squire also
bet $1,000 to $500 on Jerome. NJ. J.

nesa Outlook.
 NEW YORK. Jan. 7.-R. G. Dun X Co.'sweekly review of tSade says: Aside from some hesitation at the south ow- ing to the recent fall in price of cotton, business conditions are favorable and optimistic sentiments are evidenced by extensive preparations for active trade. As annual reports appear it Is, found that the closing months of 1904 made much better exhibit than the first half. which starts the new year with smaller stocks of goods in the hands of dealers. assuring liberal con tracts in the near future for replenish- ing supplies.
 A few minor labor controversies have arisen. but the Fall River mills are more active. and in most branches of manufacture there is a steady decrease in the proportion of idle machinery.
 Storms were also partially responsi- ble for the reduction in receipts of wheat at primary markets. which amounted to only 2.sI6.s69 bushels for the week against 4.59O1 1Oa last year
 Failures for the week numbered 2aO in the United States against 4OO last year and 25 in Canada compared with g year ago. These figures make remarkably good showing for the open- ing days of 1905.

SHORT CALENDAR.
Attsrnsy O'Nsil Says ns Will Ask For
 . Grievance Committee.

The first short calendar of the year was held in the district court this morning. It was very short session and nothing of much importance was transacted. Before court adjourned. Attorney O'Neill announced that there will be a meeting of the Bar associa- tion in the court room next Saturday, and he gave notice that he would ask for the appointment of grievance committee. so that it will not De neces- sary hereafter to % to New Haven. with their complaints. Mir O'Neill thought local committee could dis pose of their frateInal kicks as we'll as the state committee in New Haven.
 Mir O'Neill also stated that he would ask for the appointment of commit tee that will present to the governor the bars position in the matter of judgeships in the district court. and he hoped committee would be select ed that would have influence with the governor and be able to carry the pc titjOn to success.
 It has been said that the men fla vored for the committee are Attorney Gillette, president of the association. Attorney Kellogg and Judge B,rpee. The bar has endorsed Judge Cowell and Attorney Carmody for judge aud associate judge respectively at d sal ary of $3,00O. each. Some lawyers say that because Attorney Carmody is not identified with the republican party he will not be appointed but others say he will, and that the governor will not be so clannish and partisan as to re fuse to carry out the wishes of the as- Sociation.
 It has always been said that there are no politics in the courts. but no one has ever denied that there are poli- tics in the judgeships.

IN THE POLICE COURT.
Ordered to Pay Wife $ . Week and
 Furnish $500 Bond,

The board of charities is getting after those husbands who will not SUD- port their families. but prefer to ler the city do it for them. Daniel Bergin not ouly neglected to support his wife and four children. but slapped his wifes face because she did not pro, vide him with meat. Mrs Bergin is employed at the Waterbury buckle fac tory. Her eldest child is boy of 14 years old and the youngest is only 14 months. Bergin was released from jail in November, and while he was confined there one of the children died. The eldest girl. whose age is 12 years. is obliged to stay home to take care of the younger children, and the schoos authorities are in a qunndary what to do. '-"
 Bergin made plea for clelhency. but it had no effect on Judge Burpee. He knew Bergin too well. and ordered him to pay SJ week to his wife for three months and to furnish bond of $500 to the city, or go to jail for sixty days.
