The foregoing ticket was placed in nomination at the we'll attended mass convention of the labor party held at Eagles hall last night. Every nomina- tion was made by exclamation and the convention completed its Iabors in a few minutes.

THIS TRIP DISASTROUS. MARoNE IS ARRESTED Wanted by Detectives Since March 3-He Came Here
 But Seldom.

Though out of the tolls of the law for nearly three months Carlo Marone, young Italian who claims his resi- dence is in New York city, was captur- ed after strenuous chase by Detective Dunlap yesterday morning. Marone is wanted for burglary committed at the clothing store of Charles Sehock of 69l Chapel street on the night of March 5. At that time a suit of clothes an overcoat, a vest and an extra pair of trousers were taken from the store. Entrance was obtained by pulling apart the framework of a partition. Com plaint was made at once to the detec- tive bureau and the police have been looking for the man ever since.
 It is believed that he has spent most of his time out of town only running up here once in couple of weeks He was recognized on the street couple of weeks ago but succeeded In escaping arrest at that time by running away
 When Detective Dunlap started after him yesterday he again took to flight. The chase went in and out from Crown street through Temple and Commerce and back to Crown again. Finally Ma rone became exhausted, Then he made a pretense that he would draw a revol. yer and threatened to shoot anyone who attempted to arrest him. Dunlar captured him at the depot Wher
 searched it was found that he had nc weapon on his person. He was wear. ling the blue suit which had been stoler
 when arrested. it is stated.

TO SECURE CLEARANCE RECORDS George E. Palmer and Assistants to
 Cover N. H. Road System.


 George B. Palmer, one of the New Haven roads engineering inspectors, who lives in West Haven, and a large
 staff of helpers, set out to cover the entire system yesterday morning on a
 five months tour, in which they will
 secure data for the clearance records
 of the company It has been about
 seven years since the New Haven road
 has undertaken this job. This staff of
 engineers will take measurements of
 the amount of head room under every
 bridge on the road, will determine the
 exact number of inches between rails and all sorts of obstruction which
 stand near rails or, in other words, will ascertain how small a freight or pas- senger car or piece of motive power must be before it can be handled on certain lines of the company.
 A lack of sufficient clearance or head room was the reason the New Haven road went through all the trouble, it had to secure the right to raise the bridges spanning tho cut in this city. | It is a big task, but one which every railroad undertakes every few years to l keep posted on what style of freight cars it can handle. The statement was l made yesterday by member of the clearance car party, which will have a
 special train, that during the last year | the New Haven road had to refuse be- | tween 6,O10 and 5000 ears of freight because they could not be handled in
 the terminals or at spots along the | lines of the company.

rnischievous upper lips. This fright in it's turn was shared freely by the breeder. The result is the present horse panic.
 A doctor in an Illinois town told me recently (and I verified his statement so far as was necessary to convince me of it's truth, that he purchased, twelve years ago, colt, paying $60 for lit He used that colt in his practice till a few weeks ago, and then he sold it for $175. This may seem incredible to you, but if you knew of some of the other horse dickers that occur at the present time you wouldn't be surpris- ed. In the same Illinois town, for in- stance, team of stone-blind horses sold for close to $50. Those blind horses ten or twenty years ago would not have brought $10 apiece.
 1 travelled lately from Chicago, as far East as I could stand him, with a horse buyer from good town in New York state. He showed me list of the horses he had bought in the Chi cago market, with the prices annexed, He had purchased one carload for a town In West Virginia, and another carload for his own town. The prices read like fairy tales. But I have been close enough to the horse mar ket during the last six months to know they were the bitter truth One span of black horses weighing about | 1,400 pounds each, he had bought for $480 and they were not fancy horses either. One of them, on the contrary, was touched in the wind-"not heavy, y' know. but jist a little thick, y un- derstand," as my informant put 1t.
 Teams of draft horses that run in age from eight to twelve years and in weight from HOO pounds to 1,S0O pounds a horse sell for $500 to s70O a span. Those look like fancy prices, and they are. In addition, not half the care is displayed in regard to blemishes that was shown formerly when prices ranged more than 50 per cent. lower.
 This and much other evidence that easily might be secured ought to in- dicate pretty conclusively that the horse has triumphed over handlebar and honk; that he is here for keeps and that the demand for him will not soor if ever, grow seriously less. But, oi course, the breeders will go ahead ant supply the demand and put the prices
 back where they belong as measured ] by the intrinsic value of the animal

THE PRICE OF HORSES.
Great Demand for Good Animals-SOmc Causes of the Shortage.

They have talked good deal about the displacement of the faithful steed, but at, present there is universal scare over the fact that he is so near ly displaced. It takes more money. to make the mare go (from one owner to another) these days than ever before when no war was on. In fact, horses are great deal higher in price now than they were during the Spanish American spankfest, and even, higher (although not perhaps relatively to the purchasing value of money) than during the Civil war writes s. w. Gil- lilan in the Chicago Daily News.
 The bicycle came along some years ago and scared the horses. Nearly everyboly rode one of these horse frightening instruments. There was prophecy in the way horses shied at a bike, a superstitious hunch in their SIOIllIlB anu I6dilHB on LliC SllCub thing whizzed by with the accompani- ment of only a brief and tracking bell trill The thing seemed to threat en not only the horses temporary peace of mind, but also to put the horse tribe in the dodo class. The thorse was scared at the bicycle and the horsebreeder was ditto. He was lso scared that he slowed down on breeding for a while. The price of horses went up. The breeders breath I, ed easier and the market was supplied.
 Hardly had easy respiration among the breeders been resumed when the automobiie began dispensing its gaso- Iliniforous miasma along the thorough fares. Not only were they used for lpleasure-t these devil wagons-but they were used for drafting purposes. Auto cabs, autotrucks, auto-every- old thing!
