A DOUBLE ALARM.
Bremen Had Quick Run to Smok-
 ing Chimney,

All the firemen had a run this af- ternoon, and while but few of them were needed the fact that the whole of them were on hand at short notice showed, that the department is in ex- cellent working condition. About 1:30 o'clock fire was discovered in the third story of the three-family house of Patrick O'Reilly on Luke street and messenger was quickly dispatched to box 5S, corner of Luke street and Sylvan avenue. The alarm was sent in all right and the Scovill street and Brooklyn firemen were hurrying in that direction, when somebody saw the fire from the Bald win street side of the building and sent In an alarm from box 582 at the corner of Rye and Baldwin streets. bringing out the entire de- partment. This was almost an i'm excusable blunder, but anyway, the firemen got there on time to pre- vent serious damage, although one would think by the volume of smoke that was issuing from the Winkert- son tenement that 1t would be impos- sible to save the building Chemicals were applied and the blaze extin- guished without the use of water.

QUIGLEY SUES FORD.
We'll Known WOOdmOnt and Water
 bury Man Wants Damages.

William F. Quigley, one of the most prominent G. A. R. men in the state. has brought sensational suit for islander against Ebert l.. Ford, first selectman of the town of Mil ford. It angers Mir Quigley considera- bly to thipk that after all his years in Watcrtlary, where he did consid- erable work for the town and also for the fire and other departments os the city. and his reputation for hon. esty was never assailed, to think that in the little town of Woodmont, where he went some years ago to crown a youth of labor with an age of ease, he should be called dishon- est.
 MT Quigley retired from business few years ago in Waterbury, where he was we'll known as prominent business man and c. A. R. man. He built a few cottages in Woodmont, and. it seems, he did some little work for the town of Milford on the town roads.
 Some time ago, he states in his suit. Selectman Ford accused him in the presence of Charles E. Burrall. Mir Belcher, James A. Townsend and other prominent citizens of Milford, of having used a quantity of loam and dirt on his own place in Wood mont that he should have used on the town roads. There were two or three jobs of this kind in which &c., lectman Ford attacked the honesty of Mir Quigley and said he couli prove his assertions. There was not a more angry man in Milford that evening than Mir Quigley. But he re- pressed his wrath and through Att torney Kennedy has brought suit for s2.000 damages against the select man. The case is returnable to the superior court in New Haven the first Tuesday in November.

WERE WATERBURY BOYS.
Taken in Charge by Bristol Police
 Held for Parents.

The local police received word to- day from chief of police of Bristol that two boys who said their homes were in Waterbury were taken in hand there this morning, as they looked suspicious and seemed to be lost even though the Bell town is only burg.
 The boys who were captured were Bell Graukaukas, of 901 Bank street and Peter Caffechis, of 804 Bank. They ran away from home yesterday and must have hopped freight to Bristol: They are only 1s years old. Their parents were notified and will in all probability go to Bristol this afternoon to bring back the boys.
 John Cusky who is charge with theft and out is waiting his trial. be- ing out under bonds of $100 has also skipped and the police have no trace of him. The bondsman, man in Brooklyn. is on the anxious seat and to-day asked the police to aid him in locating the runaway. It was thought that he was with the boys caught this morning. but they claimed they knew nothing about him.

USED HAT PIN ON HUGGER.
New London Girl Effectively Pun
 ishcd Man Who Grabbed Her.

New London, Sept 26.-Somewhere about town a man is carrying half of a hat pin buried in his flesh. Doctors say that broken hat pin would be more liable to go in than it would to come out and to get 1t out would re- quire the services of magnet. A partial canvass of the doctors last night did not disclose anyone coming to them to have hat pin removed.
 Sunday night after dark. between the brewery and the old Town Mill on Mill street, a young woman was accosted by strange man. who put one arm around her. She was fear full that the assault might be carried further than a simple hug and be- came desperate. Some one had told her that if anyone ever assaulted her to stick hat pin into him. This was what came into her mind when the man stepped out to reach her in the dark and she extracted a pin from her hat.
 One jab was sufficient. for when the bold Jack the Hugger felt the pin he jumped and bolted away with a cry of pain. The young woman hurried home with the pin. as she supposed. in her hand. On examina- ton before light it was found the pin had been broken off half way up.

CHAOS ' CUBA The Island is Practically Without ! Government t the Present
 Tine
LOOKING TO UNITED STATES

Havana, Sept 26.-Cuba to-day is
 practically without government and
 the landing of American forces to restore order in the island is believed to be the necessary outcome. The moderate, or governing party, last night decided to abdicate everything in the nature of national provincial and municipal government and thus force the hands of tie American peace commissioners and compel the United
 States to intervene for the second time in Cuba. The liberals, or oppo- sitiOn party, den0unce the action of the Palma administration is treason, but the conservative interests through out the island welcome the idea of American intervention as being the only means of securing an orderly ad- ministration of the islands affairs for any length of time. It is pointed out that even If the American commis- sioners succeeded in establishing the liberals in power, it would not insure ment officials all admit that they pre- fer American intervention to seeing the liberal party in power. President Palma, at special session of congress called for Friday, will formally pre- sent the resignation of himself and Vice-President Mendez Capote, but 1t is not certain that q quorum will be present, as the moderates yesterday decided that they would not have any further relations with the government of Cuba, also alleging unfair treat ment at the hands of the American commissioners. The latter have plain ly signlfied theif disgust at the con duct of the government leaders and have practically abandoned their ef- forts to restore order in the island ex- cept by the use of force. Secretary Taft has pointed out that the Cuban officials have rejected terms of peace proposed by the Americans, which were honorable to President Palma and his advisors.

The Sprague school at waterville was entered last evening but as far as Is known. nothing of any account was taken. It looks as if the place had been visited by boys. who thought that they would find something of value in the teachers desks. A few of the desks were broken open and thoroughly searched. but no money was found. although one of the teach CTS had a few dollars in one of the rooms which the youthful burglars did not enter.
