Will Receive $4,000
CONDITIONS ARE MET
Announcement to Parishion-
ers of Christ's Church,
West Haven.

At a meeting Of the parishioners Of
Christ church held last night it was
formally announced that the parish
would receive $4,000 from the estate of
the late Mrs. Lucy Boardman, that
amount being the balance Of bequest
left by Mrs. Boardman providing cer-
tain other amount was raised and other
conditions lived up to. The church has
been completed and is one of the pret-
tiest of the state. The style is that of
an English country church and 1t looks
several hundred years old.
What disposition would be made with
the old church building has been a
question for some time, and at last
nights meeting it was voted to pre-
serve it. Whether it will remain on its
present site will be decided later 1t
is the oldest church building in the
state and the church society is the
oldest one in this vicinity, Trinity
church, of this city, being an off shoot
of it. The present building at West
Haven incroaches twelve feet on the
street, and will probably have to be
moved.

DISCUSS TARIFF REVISION
NO CHANGE AT PRESENT
Senator Hopkins Says Illi-
nois is Behind Cannon
for President.

Oyster Bay, l. l., July 17.-President
Roosevelt, United States Senator Hop
kins of Illinois and H. E. Miles, repre-
senting the Wisconsin Tariff Revision
league, discussed tariff revision at
luncheon at Sycamore Hill to-day. Sem
ator Hopkins later said that the con-
clusion was reached that no tariff re-
vision should be undertaken until aft
er the next presidential election.
"It would be suicidal to the repub-
lican party" the senator added, "to
undertake a revision of the tariff dur
ing the next congress. After the pres
idential election believe it will be the
duty of the republican party to revise
the tariff and that it will be DONE"
Mr. Hopkins said regarding the pres
idential boom of Speaker Cannon;
"Of course if President Roosevelt
was a candidate there would not be
the slightest opposition in the conven-
tion to his nomination. But l am con-
vinced that Mr. Roosevelt will not con-
slider the nomination and that he is en-
tirely sincere in declaring himself not
to be a candidate under any circum-
stances.
Speaker Cannon will have the entire
Illinois delegation solidly behind him
and I thoroughly believe that if nomi-
mated he would make the best race OF
any man the republican party could
| put forward"

Closing. he said that when the board
found it could not do business with the
property owners the members felt that
to ask for condemnation proceedings
was the only thing left. DR.. Spang
said that the board believed that the
site chosen would accommodate the
largest number Of pupils in the con-
gested district.
Alderman Collins showed that he was
opposed to the condemnation Of the
site in question on the ground that it
should go in the lower Fifth ward, as
it would there accommodate more pu-
pills.
Il believe" he said, that the board
of education is forcing upon the chill
dren in Wooster street and vicinity a
site where there are practically no chill
dren If thought there were great
number Of pupils there needing the
school I would vote to condemn the
property, no matter how costly 1t was. "
He stated that he was strongly In fa-
vor of a school In the Wooster district,
but did not concur in the site chosen.
Dr. Spang explained that it Is plan
ned to use the new school as a gram
mar school for the entire district, al
lowing the other buildings to be used
for the younger children who cannot 60
far from their homes, and making II
unnecessary for pupils in the higher
grades to go over to the Orange street

LABOR BILLS

Than Ten Hours a
Day.

OPPOSES ACT
Employees Who Work Short
er Hours During Year
May Put in More
Christmas Time.

Hartford, July 17-Bils of consider
able Importance to the laborlng man
and woman was passed in the house to-
day, that body devoting nearly the en-
tire afternoon to the labor resolutions.
The bills were the order Of the day and
five Of them were concerning the efn-
ployment of minors and women, one
the hours of labor of tele-
graph operators and train dispatchers
while the other was concerning the
hours of labor of railroad employees.
Under the provisions of the telegraph
operators bill no operator shall be on
duty more than eight hours a day and
at stations that are kept open only dur
ing the day time where only one tele-
graph operator is employed. such oper-
ator may work twelve hours a day,
these to be consecutive. The bill also
provides that in case Of sickness, death
or washouts they may be held on duty
not to exceed sixteen hours a day of
twenty-four hours. The majority report
Of the committee which would limit the
hours OF labor as provided by an act
of congress, which is ten hours a day,
was rejected
All the labor bills caused long discus
sions and the debate on the bill con-
cerning the employment of women and
children was an interesting one. The
bill provided that minors under sixteen
years of age and women be employed
not more than ten hours day and flf-
ty-fve hours a week during June, July
and August The report of the labor
committee was that the bill should be
continued until the next general assem-
bly, and Mr.. Cheney of Manchester
made a strong argument for that point

For Mayor.

Aldermen Townshend, Cur

Stand for Reelection.

Former State Senator Minotte q.
Chatheld stated to a Journal and
Courier reporter last night that he is
not and has not been a candidate for
the republican nomination for mayor
to succeed John P. studley. Mr.. Chat
field says that he has not even thought
of accepting the nomination.
Col. Isaac M. Ullman has broken up
his camp in Maine and will be back in
the city by Saturday to marshall his
hosts for the campaign. BY the with
drawal of Mr.. Chatfield from the race
for the nomination Col Ullman will
find the republican party strengthened
rather than weakened for the general
opinion has been that that party has
been hopelessly divided between a
large number of candidates. The elm
ination from the race Of several of the
principal ones, there are but two or
three to chose from at the city con-
ventions.
Frank c. Bushnell a boom for whom
was launched by Governor Woodruff
at the Drummers' banquet at the New
Haven House some months ago, has
continually refused all advances to get
him to be a candidate, so that now his
close friends, those who have been es-
pecially active in pushing him have
given up hope Of his taking the nomin-
alton.
Fire Commissioner John H. Pierce
who has been talked of as candidate,
thinks that his business interests
would keep him from running this year.
