READY FOR THE
 GREAT CONTEST Record Breaking Crowd is Coming to the Yale Princeton Gridiron
 Battle. 48o SEATS MORE
 THAN LAST YEAR Merchants, Hotel Keepers, Liv- erymen and Spectators Prepared for Satur-
 days Game.

Preparations for a record breaking crowd are being made for Saturdays s big game against Princeton. The hotels have let all their rooms and have hired extra chefs for the week end. Places for machines in every garage in the city have been engaged The windows of the stores are filled with the Yale blue and the Princeton orange and black flags, trophies and bunting Foot balls tied with the colors of the oppos- ing team and filled with choice candies are to be seen in the confectionery stores and early in the week these as well as the drug stores about the cen ter commenced to prepare the chocolate for the hundreds of gallons which will be consumed that day.
 Every ticket for the game is gone and fewer this year than ever are in the hands of spectators, owing to the good care taken by the football asso- citation ticket department and to the ordinance passed recently by the board of aldermen. Those tickets which the speculators did corner are not yet available as they arc being held to command a large price the day of the game.
 The seating capacity of the stands at this year is larger than ever before and ever since the first of September gangs of worl1men have been busy put ting in additional seats until there are now just 32,2S9 exclusive of the press stand which seats 2s5. The press stand is just being completed and is this year on the east of the field where the correspondents will have the sun square in their eyNs.
 Several telegraph instruments will be put in to-day and connected So that all will be in readiness for the game.
 Tn the regular stands there are 4Se more seats than last year. Many of the poorer ones have been cut out and in the place of the old press box and the tree which protected over from the cemetery 1,0o9 new seats have

 in Garde Fire.
PURSE OF $500 TO
 GO TO EMPLOYES
Proprietor Meyer Pays Funeral Expenses, and Subscription is to be Distributed
 to Rescuers.

The investigation which is being con- ducted by Coroner Mix in the matter of the Hotel Garde fire has not been completed vet and according to the statement of the coroner last evening it will probably not be ended until to- morrow or Saturday There is one per- son, the only one who was in the room where the fire started, according to Coroner Mix that he can get to ex- anime and that is Michael Cosgrove, the nlan} who came down the rope es- cape just before I,avlgne attempted it's descent. Cosgrove is in the hospital and the coroner says he cannot ex- anime him yet, as he is not in con dition for it and may not be for two CT three days Aside from this the examination is over and this mans condition is the one thing that ls hold ing up the report on the fire.
 In regard to the death of Lavigne, Coroner Mix stated last evening that he was thoroughly convinced that the rope did not break, but that 1t was severed by burning, thus dropping the mai to his death. He also considers that the failure of the chemical ex- tingulshers to work was not due to any fault in their composition, but to the excitement of those who attempted to use them, they failing to turn them upside down which Is necessary tc make them work.
 Three of the dead employees were buried yesterday and the body of a fourth. Isaac Lavigne, was shipped in the care of his brother-in-law to Cham plain, New York, leaving one body not disposed of yet That is the body which is supposed to be John Usa and which Is being held an extra day al Walkers undertaking rooms on Con- nnerce street in the hope that some relative may come to claim the body The entire funeral expense for all tho buriais is being met. by Proprietor Meyer of the Hotel Garde personally Mir. Meyer has also sent checks fol $50 each to the police and fire depart.

He reyiswsesS. the history of Hartford from the tlrne of the Hooker settlement and the framing of the first constitution He reminded the farmer that he could not run railroads nor could the rail- road run the farm
 Eaoh should work for the interests of the other, He had heard lot about wrong-doing lately, and was now ready to hear something of the right doing. He said that the country need have no fear of financial disaster or industrial depression so long as the farmer pro- duced the bumper crop. Ex-Governor Bell of Vermont in responding to the welcome said that the National grange had to go right because the women were behind the organization. So great was their influence becoming in the grange that the men were voting ac- cording to their instructions. In tho course of his talk he alluded facetioue- ly to wooden nutmegs and to wooden nutmegs of Connecticut, and in res ponse to this humorous allueion the chairman of the meeting said that the men of Connecticut never claimed to grow wooden nutmegs; they made them and they had little difficulty in
