The skating masquerade held last
week in the Opera House was a big
success, socially and financially. Be-
sides the Sixty-five skaters, nearly l50
spectators were in the gallery to wit
ness the spectacle of a masquerade on
skates. Prizes for best costumes were
awarded Miss Louise Podawiltz and
William Damon, and for comic cos
tunes, to T. P. Peerenboom and to
August Bandeline, who was dressed
as woman. Many who are regular
skaters were not masked, supposing
that the crowd would not be the most
desirable: contrary to their fears, the
management arranged that it was a
good orderly crowd. The affair was
such a success that another will be
given at some near future time, at
which there will undoubtedly be more
maskerS.

LONE MAN RESCUED AT SEA.
Olsen Had Been seventy-twO Hours
 Without Food or Drink.

Washington, Oct. 1.-Captain Fiske, of the cruiser Minneapolis, reported by mail to-day the details of the rescue of James Olsen, of the schooner Twi- light, which was wrecked in gale off the Carolina coast. Olsen, in his state ment to Captain Fiske said that he, with several others, was thrown off the schooner in a tremendously heavy sea and encountered great danger from the lumber thrown into the sea, which was the cargo of the steamer. He secured two plans, and, with an arm thrown over each, foated for day in very heavy sea. When the storm abated somewhat he tied the blanks together, one across the other, using strips of his oilskin coat for the purpose. He was able to sit up on this improved raft and paddle himself along with piece of wood which he had clung to. He had been seventy-two hours without food or drink at the time of his rescue, but was still able to paddle the raft, and when he saw the lights of the Min neapolis he padded it so close to her course that he was very nearly run down. The rescue took place at mid night.

WILD WEST METHODS.
TorringtOn Farmer Compelled to Re-
 lease Men He Had Arrested.

Torrington, Oct. 1,--Farmers of Tor ringford, about two miles east of here, headed by Chief of Police L. F. Hull, are securing the woods in that section in search of three foreigners, two of whom escaped from custody this after noon and the third of whom aided them by threatening to shoot Fred Thome, a farm hand, who had the two in charge, unless he released them,
 As Thome, who is employed by All stine Birge, was leading a calf into a barn this afternoon he heard a rife shot and next saw the calf drop dead with bullet hole in it's head. Looking around Thome saw two men with guns behind a stone wall, and acting under the statute which allows farmer to arrest trespassers, he took the men in charge and started towards the town. While on the way he was met by the third man, who placed the muzzle of a shotgun to Thome's head and in- formed him that unless he allowed his prisoners to go, he would shoot him. Thome then released the men, but im- mediately summoned aid and a posse was formed which is now hunting for the men.

LVANS ESTATE MISMANAGED
Charge Brought by City of Phila-
 deIphia.

New York, Oct 1.--Justice Giegerich, in the supreme court to-day, decided that the city of Philadelphia, the Thomas W. Evans Museum and Insti- ute of that city, and the heirs and next of kin of Dr. Thomas W. Evans, the American dentist, who amassed a fc rune of $500OO,OOO in Paris and who as friend of Empress Eugenie of France saved her life during the dis orders in Paris in the Franco-Prussian war, should have the right to examine the books and the accounts of the es- tate pending the trial of an action brought for judicial settlement of the estate. This action was brought by Charles F. Muller, Horace H. Greeley and Edward A. Crane, three of the ex- ecutors of the will against Philadel- phia, the Thomas w. Evans Museum and Institute, and their co-excutors, Arthur F. Valois.
 Dr. Evans left the bulk of his estate t , found the museum and institute call cd after him. The heirs contested the will and compromise was effected by which they were to receive $100,000 within year and $7OO,00O subsequently,.
 The City of Philadelphia and the Evans Museum and Institute allege that the estate has been mismanaged and therefore asked for the inspection.

SCORE SPECIAL COMMITTEE
WHICH INT6STIGATED IN CREASE IN CITY LABORERS,PAY.

Alderman Courtney Did Not Think They
 Would Report Without Holding Pub-
 lie Hearing--SpeciaI Board Meeting
 in Two Weeks to Consider Question:
 Alderman W0Odford Wants Public
 Service Corporations Investigated.
 The report of the special committee appointed to investigate the raise of city laborers' pay aroused considerable discussion at the regular monthly meeting of the board of aldermen held last night, The outcome was that the petition was referred back to the committee with instructions to hold a public hearing and a motion by Alder man Courtney that the next meeting of the board be held two weeks from last night, presumably with the intention of forcing the committee to take irn- mediate action was passed by a ma jority of one vote.
 Although this petition has been thor ot ghly discussed at a previous meeting of the board it provoked no less 8 dis cussion last night When the question was raised Alderman Healy moved the substitution of the minority report for the majority. Alderman Homan pro- posed that the matter be referred back to the committee for a public hearing. The former insisted on yea and nay vote on his report but it failed to pass and the question reverted to the motion of Alderman Homan, which was pass ed. Alderman Homan told the board that the question was one of exped- iency He did not believe that the la- borers could get their increase even if it was granted because there were no funds available. The raise would mean an increase pay roll to the city of about $5,000 a year. Alderman Loos said he would be glad to give the man more pay, but that the system empioy- ed by the street department would have to be changed before an increase could be of any benefit to the laborer or the GUY. Iue present. system ndu outlived itself by twenty-five years, he said, and that under it an able bodied man could not afford to work for the city of New Haven because he could not get steady employment. He char acterized the system as rotten, but said that the director of public works was doing the best he could under it.
 Alderman Courtney scored the spe- cial committee and said he did not think that a committee from the board of aldermen would present such re- port without a public hearing.
 Alderman Collins spoke in favor of his resolution to ask the board of f. nance to appropriate sufficient money to supply all the children in all the schools with free text books The res- o!ution was passed without oppoition and Alderman Homan took it upon himself to present the matter to the flnanciers at their meeting next Thurs day. He explained that that board had been unable to approprHte more money

HEARST ATTACKS BOTH

 to Hold an Opinion on Any Subject
 and Argue Any Side of Any Case.
 New York, Oct Congressman W.T. liam R. Hearst, the candidate of the democratic party and the Independence league for governor, paid tonight flying visit to Brooklyn, where he ad- dressed five mass meetings in half as many hours. Mir Hearst was acconp- panied by Lewis Stuyvesant Chamber. nominee for lieutenant governor on the same ticket, who also spoke. Large and demonstrative crowds greeted them the greatest gathering being at Prospect hall, where the final meeting was held Here Mir Hearst said sn part:
 'The democratic cnyention at Buffalo openly and scornfully repudiated the corporation agents, who were there to invest their masters money in the plir- chase of delegates, and that repudiatiou was the one thing that made 1t possi- ble for the nominees of the Tndepend- ence league to accept the dsqnocratic endorsement.
 The corporation forces gre now urlit- cd behind the corporation attorney of the corporation party, and the line I have so long labored to have clearly drawn is clearly drawn at last.
 Nothing has helped me more to make this distinction clear than the opposition of Alton R. Parker, Williarll F. Sheehan, Edward M Shepard Paul D. Cravath District Attorney Jerome and other corporation attorneys and paid political agents of corrupt inter- ests. Alton B. Parker is a typical cor poration lawyer. He can be fedto hold an opinion on amy subject, and argue any side of amy case
 District Attorney Jerome has always been a corporation lackey, but such an insignificant brass buttOned bell boy of the trusts that few realized his posi- tion until he became prominent in poli- tics
 He is a notorious example of the confidence man in public life, of the pet- ty larcendst in politics who secures pre- fernlent he does not deserve by nrog1- ises he does not intend to perform. so
 While condoling with Mir Hughes, I wish publicly to thank MT. Jerome for his opposition 10 me.

TAFT FURTHER ASSURES
 THE PEOPLE OF CUBA
PRESIDES AT OPENING EKER- CISES OF UNIVERSITY OF
 HAVANA

His Mission, He Declares, Solely for the
 Purpose of Uplifting the Fallen Re-
 public and Restoring It to the Path
 of Prosperity = Announcement Re-
 ceived With Demonstrations of De-
 Iight-PeopIe Very FavOrabIy m-
 pressed With the Actions of the Pro-
 visionaI Governor.
 Havana, Oct. 1.-Governor Taft's ac- tions to-day have gone far to win him warm place in the hearts of the peo- pie whost destinies have been placed in his hands.
 Presiding this morning at the open ing exercises of the University of Ha- vana, he declared his mission here was solely for the purpose of uplifting the fallen republic and restoring it to the path of prosperity-an announcement which was received with demonstra- tions of delight by an audience repre- sentative of the highest society in Ha- yana. Following this it became known that Governor Taft and Assistant Sec retary of State Bacon had cabled for their wives to join them here-a step which will strongly cement the bonds of affection between the Cuban people and the American provisional adminis- tration.
 Still another act of Governor Taft is warmly commended as Illustrative of his thoughtful consideration of the humber classes. Learning that many poor families occupying the temporarily disused barracks at Camp Columbia were about to be summarily evicted in preparation for the occupation by the American marines, Governor Taft di- rected that these people remain undls- turbed for fifteen days. In the mean while portion of the marines will re- main under canvas. He personally wis., tied the families and explained that he had not been aware of the conditions. He left the camp amid cheers and warm expressions of gratitude. These evil dences of American good will have earned such general favorable comment that the landing of the battalion of marines which will constitute the gar rison here caused hardly a ripple of ex- citement.
 Much of the governors time to-day was occupied in the various depart ments and with the judges of the court. The members of the supreme court and Governor Taft held prolonged confer enee concerning the drafting of proc lamation of general amnesty. This de- cree is of the most importance, in view of the fact that at many points on the island, notably Cienfuegos, many per- sons are in Jail awaiting the disposition of political charges. The governor to- day also appointed Major E. F. Ladd and Alexander Gonzales a committee to audit the accounts of the treasury.
 Jose J. Monteagudo and Carlos Her. nandez, members of the disarmament commission, left here tonight to re- eivec arms from the rebels at Santa Clara, Cienfuegos and other points in the center of the island. The laying down of arms by the rebels in the vi- cinity of Havana will begin tomorrow.
