LATER:-An attempt has been
made to clear up the affair by de
claring that the box contained the
arm of man that had lost the
same by an amputation. The ex
planation looks very hshy, partic-
ularly in view of the fact that the
engineer was fired the next day
for mentioning the matter. In

1T WILL SURELY COME.

There is nothing clearer than
the fact that Japan is seeking
trouble with this country. AT
first it looks ridiculous, but on
closer examination it does not
seem so unreasonable. To begin
with, we are desperately weak in
in our possession of the Philip
pines.
That is our vulnerable point
and Japan knows it. Next her
little yellow head is swelled over
her fight with Russia and she is
just aching to have another scrap.
Then again there is little doubt
that she is being encouraged by
some other nation. Practically
all of them hate us and would be
delighted to see almost anything
make US trouble.
For once in our life we are in
hopes that the army and navy
will receive attention at the hands
of congress. In being prepared
may be our greatest safety.
To be sure there is little occa-
sion for worry in the near future,
but whenever we get in row
with the Orient there will be a
fuss on that will not stop in a
hurry. The contributing cause
for the trouble is the CONNER.
cial spirit that will brook no SER
ious competition. We wanted
Oriental trade and just as it is in
our grasp japan steps in as dan
gerous competitor. We may reas-
onably look for the commercial
interests of this nation to stiffen
the backbone of the administra-
ton and resist any encroachment
on either our real or fancied
rights.
The recent muss over Japanese
children attending school in San
Francisco is but an indication OF
the Japanese spirit. There are
clearly no treaty rights that are
violated by refusal to permit

they hasten to the philanthropic

LAST week we are informed
that the Lake City Times roasted
us plenty. We have inadvert-
emily lost the paper SO cannot re-
ply as we would wish. The fact
is that we get about all the facts
regarding Lake City in the Phon-
ograph and rarely read the Times
except when we wish to go on a
mental debauch and cannot get
hold of the Denver Post. The
trouble with Blair is that he is
copying others instead of acting
his own natural self. Now when
he feels ugly he affects the same

TOWN CLERKS OFFICE
Not Largs Enough to Accommodate People Who Have Business ThsIs.

Things were crowded so in the town clerks ofiice yesterday that many who had business to transact there had to walt for their turn to get in and in some instances when they did effect an entrance they couldn't get room to turn around and had to back out. It Is much the same almost ev- cry day in the year and as conse- Quence good deal of valuable time is lost both by those who call there as well as the clerks. There is no reason why this should be so. The congested conditions could be re- lieved by extending the office out to the street line which would add twenty feet to the space occupied for ofiice purposes and then the vault could be enlarged i've or ten feet and everybody would have ample room in both places for years. This could be done at very moderate cost. A one story brown stone structure would suffice and that would bring the building on line with the Lewis block just east of the hall and would not in any way impair the looks of the place.

THE POLICE COURT.
Fined $20 and Costs for . Quarrel
 ct 0akville Co.'S Plant.

Angelo Corrillo 21 was in the city court to-day charged with assaulting Samuel Sewell, 72. Sewell runs the elevator in the Oakville compsny's plant and Corrillo is a truckman there. On October 31. according to Sewell, Corrillo got on the elevator and they had reached the third floor when the truckman said he wanted to get to the second floor. This an- noyed the old man and some words followed. Sewell said Corrillo threatened to do" him. At all events as he was leaving the shop that evening he was struck from be- hind and knocked down. Corrillo went to New York and returned . few days ago. He was fined $20 and costs. s,e
 Joseph Nahass. charged with ped- ding without license. won the sym- pathy of the court by a tale of dis tress. He was given to tomorrow morning to leave town, or else work out fine of $5 and costs in jail.

MAYOR AND SUPERINTENDENT
Officials Who Do Not Agree in Re
 gard to School Accommodations.

It looks as if there's a biz fight brewing between Mayor Thoms and the board of finance on one side, with Superintendent or Schools E. w. Tinker and the board of education on the other. The board of educational commissioners are crying that the city is badly in need of another school building or at least additions to some of the schools which are oy- ercr0wded. Mayor Thoms does not as yet see the necessity of construct ing another building, consequently the board of education is not likely to receive the extra appropriation of $40,OOO or more which it is looking for.
 It was the concensus of opinion that the board of education would vote this fall to ask the board of fin ance for an appropriation for an ad- dition to the High school, as Mir Tinker said 1t was very necessary that the High school should be en- larged.
 But when the matter was first brought before the board of educa- tion the plans did not suit some of the members so the matter was allowed to drop for time. Later the matter again came up and the board voted to ask for $40,000, for an addition to High school or Driggs school. AL though the need of school buildings was discussed the board of education thought that 1t would be able to get by this year with the amount named above.
 But 1t does not appear as if the board would get the measly $4O,OO0 which 1t Is banking on, as the mayor with the finance commissioners will not vote for the appropriation until conditions are investigated to see if there is really need for another build ing or the expending of money for an addition.
 With the opening of the new pa rOchial school in the eastern section of the city, there was couple of rooms left vacant in the Hendrickcn, Dublin and Welton street buildings. Those who are not in favor of more buildings cannot see why the school districts are not altered so as to take some of the scholars out of the congested sections and piace them where there is plenty of room. They seem to think that the completion of the additions to the Bank and Web ster buildings will go long way to- ward providing sufficient room for the time being.
 The members of the board of edu- cation and MT Tinker claim that al- though the additions that are almost completed, will help some, they will not be nearly adequate unless plans for another building will be made Moreover they claim that the High school is now full and next year there will be lack of room If the increase is large.
 The situation at present IS rather mixed up and unless the members of the board of education and Super intendent Tinker do some missionary work. The mayor and the board of finance will make Mir Tinker and the educational commissioners wall until next year for what they are seeking.

 The Brooklyn and Town Plot Improvement committee will meet to- morrow evening and Superintendent of Streets E. c. Kilduff may be pres- ent. The members of the committee have asked the ex-mayor to attend the meeting so they may inform him of what things they would like to have done in this section and also to hear what he has to say in regard to the extension of Clark street. MT Kilduff, If he should attend, will un- doubtedly interest the members of the Brooklyn organization with what he has to say as to the spending of the money appropriated for streets.
 That some of the prominent members of the republican party are undoubtedly angered at the manner in which they claim Benjamin Kel- sey acted at the last election, there IS no doubt, and some of them are not at all backward in declaring that he would have rejoiced had the demo- cratic ticket been elected. One of the things chalked up against Mir Kelsey is that he refused to allow the workmen in his factory any extra time for voting. They claim that his side partner, ex-School Inspector Tyr rell, did not move a hand to aid the party and that the members of the g. o. p. will remember their action at elections that are to come. They see no reason why MT Kelsey should be sore on the party, they assert, simply because he was defeated for the chairmanship of the town com- mittee. Moreover, they also state that none of the Peasley crowd would have taken any interest in last Tues. days contest only they could not very we'll stay away from the polls.

BOARD OF SAFETY
Chisf Saigg Retsnnsadsd to PuI-

The board of public safety held . meeting yesterday afternoon which lasted only about ten minutes. Com. missioner Minor presided. Appllca- tions from M. B. Bowe and James J. Raleigh for appointments to the supernumerary police force were filed. Fire Chief Snagg recommended the purchase of twelve pairs of horses. This matter was referred to a com mittee.
 It was voted to recommend to tue board of finance that $5OO be scraptd up somewhere to help out the appro- pr1ati0n for the police department for the rest of the year. This shortage was due to q clerical mistake in the appropriations which was not dis covered until 1t was too late
 Superintendent of Police George M. Gcnth tiled his usual monthly report showing that IF persons mad come under the wrath of the lcw dur,ug the month Of October. They were made up as follows: X horse thief. two yiolators of the game laws, four cases or non-support, twenty-One alleged thieves, one chauffeur for oversperd- ing his machine, two for allowing dogs to be at large; four children for having destitute homes. and four gamblers. The rest were ordinary breaches of the peace and intoytca- tion.
 It is evident the board intends in- creasing the police force for the following resolution handed In by Commissioner Spain was adopted:
 Resolved That section 1 of sec tion 101 of the charter be amended as follows: The police department of the city of Waterbury shall consist of one superintendent and such officers pa- trolmen or ordinary policemen as the board of aldermen may from time to time designate and prescribe and not more than forty supernumerary po- lice, who may be called into service by the superintendent whenever, in his judgment, their services may be required. and who shall be called into service by the superintendent whenever so directed by the riayor or the board of commissioners of public safety"

ONLY REPUBLICAN, DEFEATED. Friends of Iowa Man Will Take Sweet
 Revenge ct Next Election.

Washington, D. C., Nov. 10.--Ae. cor1ing to Iowa statemen iu Wash. ington, the defeat of Represents tive Lacey by the Cummins faction in that state may mean the defeat of Cum. mins and his friends two ycars from now. that Is, if there 10 no material change in affairs in the state. Lacey was the one republican representative showed under in Iowa that too, af. ter many years in the house. His defeat was unquestionably caused by the animosities of the Cummins men. Antl-C -Cummins people in Washington say that Lacey Is almost certaln to bl made the republican nominee for gov ernor two years from now, supposinG of course. that the Cummins people may be downed. It is the general belief that the lieutenant governol elect, Garst. will be the choice of Governor Cumins for the republican nomination. and the same old 0ght of the past four years will be carried on. It was knifing by the anti-Cum mins people that reduced the ms jority of the governor of the statl belaw any figure he eyer had in th4 three times he has been elected governor of the state. and this has intensified the feeling between thl factions.
 Representative Lacey is an expooeu of the stand pat policy that b N strongly manifest in some sectioss d the republican party. while Govcrno< Cummins Is revisionist along re publican lines. The fight for govern0 two years from now will be made oq these issues. as It has in the last tuV campaigns, both of which have bed won by Governor Cummins.
 Secretary Shaw. who is seeking th( republican nomination for the pred dency. has been one of the mod pronounced opponents of 0overnq Cummins and his tariR visws. an( would probably give aid and comfod to Representative Lacey fn any 0gh be might make.
