NO SALARY INCREASES
MONEY NOT AVAILABLE
Teachers, Bremen and Po- liCemen Must Await
 Appropriations.

After many weeks of hard work in getting favorable report on their petition for more pay. the school teach CTS will be unable to get the raise" asked for this year. The same is true in the case of the firemen and police men, both of whom want more pay. Mayor Studley stated yesterday that in none of these departments was there any money which might be transferred to the payroll. The estimates were made very close at the beginning of the year.
 However much the board of finance may be in favor of the proposed in creases, there is no money available for the purpose unless a special tax is laid. It is not likely that the board of finance cares to take this step. It therefore appears impossible to provide money for the asked for increases until the annual meeting of the financlers in Mo- vember, The appropriations are made up at that time for the following year. The new appropriations do not go into effect until January 1.
 Mayor Studley said that the increase in city laborers' pay from $1.75 to $2 per day might make it necessary to let this work out by contract He did not advocate such a measure, but he did say that it had been considered by the financiers.
 The increased pay for laborers, the mayor said, would necessitate the re- tirement of many old men who had been employed for charity's sake. It may be necessary, he thinks, to put off some streets it had been planned to harden.

1 SPORTS HERE AND ELSEWHERE
ANJTHER BAD DAY. ALL GAMES POSTPONED Brownies Had Decided Slump but Still Have
 Promising Outlook.

Another bad day yesterday and again the State league baseball games were postponed, The games this year have not been very profitable to the man agers, and nearly all have lost money. There are already number of post poned games and they are increasing every week.
 New Haven has had somewhat of a slump, but her prospects are still bright. Manager Danaher has not en- deavored to increase the strength of his team much. He bought Barry and Curtiss, but neither man has made good. Curtiss has made at least one error every day and has often present. ed the opposing team with Several tal- lies by making several costly errors. His batting is not above 300, but still, he can handle the bat fairly we'll Barry is weak in both the field and at the bat,
 The Brownies pitchers all ought to be good. Corcoran was New Haven's strong man last year in the box, and will be this year as soon as he gets into Sudpe. NOll6 ana west tlr6 DOLH OI the first-class order and have shown their superiority over other twirlers in many game, but the batting and fielding of the men back of them have been the cause of many of the Brow nies' defeats. Romer, another of New Haven's box artists promises to pan out well if he is given enough chances.
 The New Ravens play in Springfield to-day, and if they play together cam not possibly lose. They have only two home games this week, Hartford on Decoration day, Thursday, and Spring field Saturday. Besides the game in this city Thursday afternoon, New Ha- ven will play in Hartford in the morn ing.
 Holyoke has had walkaway with all the teams she came in contact last week, and promises to do likewise this week. Waterbury is still holding her own, but is out of reach of first place for several days Norwich. Springfield and Hartford are apparently content with their positions, while Bridgeport and New London deem it best to drop slowly but surely.

POLO CLUBS HORSE SHOW.
A straightaway Dnsh of Polo Ponies n
 Feature.

Among the many new entries in the open classes of the New Haven Polo clubs horse show, which opens on the Sd of June, are H. G. McElwaine, Carr brothers and Lehman Strauss, all of New York, and George L. Clark of Mer- iden. Tn addition to these other en- tries are expected. and some of these have been practically arranged, al- though they can not as yet be an- nounced.
 In these classes first and second cash prizes are offered for the judges choice and ribbons for the third place
 A feature of the show which will ex- cite great interest is the dash of the polo ponies of 100 yards and return. There are more polo ponies in the city now than ever before, and with the en- tries from Hartford and Middletown there are enough to make the contests very exciting, The ponies are speedy little animals and there are plenty of them that can run half mile in 55 seconds.

To Level FortIfications.

Berlin, May 27.-It has been decided to level the vast Notifications around Spandau, which are mostly out of date, and thus destroy the last interior fort ress of Germany, the residence of the first Hohenzollern electors and the stronghold of Prussian power since the fourteenth century. A portion of the ground now occupied by the fortress will be turned into city streets and the rest will be retained for the use of the large garrison which will be main tained at Spandau, the place where the special gold reserve for war purposes is kept.

WOMEN GOLFERS COVER
 HEAVY COURSE IN go
  Miss Harriot s. Curtis, the National Champion, and Miss M. B. Adams.
EIGHT ARE QUALIFIED
Others, Barred from Cham pionship Round, to Con-
 tinue for Other Honors.

Boston, May 27--It required 101 strokes or better to qualify for further play in the fifth annual championship of the Women's Golf association which began under unusually severe condi- tions on the links of the county club to- day,
 Yet over a rain soaked course. with putting greens particularly uncertain and the fair green heavy and soggy, two of the players, Miss Harriet s. Curtis of the Home green and the na- tlonal champion. and Miss Mary B. Adams, of Wollaston, played the 1S- holes in an even 90-strokes, while three others, Miss Fanny C. Osgood and Miss Margaret Curtis, both of the Country club, and Mrs. George w. Roope of the Commonwealth club, scored 94, 95 and 9S respectively. The other three to qualify, Miss Pauline Mackay of Oak ley. the 1905 national champion, Miss Mary Dutton, and Miss Alice Under wood, both also of Oakley, were tied at 101 Twenty others started in the play to-day and a majority finish ed Although they are barred from the championship round they will continue for other honors or trophies,
 The playing of Miss Curtis and Miss Adams was considerably ahead of any thing that they have shown before when it is taken into consideration that they covered the full course of 6,1S7 drives. Miss Curtis best efforts were on the Sd and 18th holes. The former, S2O-yards affair, she made in three, and the latter, 39O yards, across the polo field, she accomplished in four strokes, Miss Adams made the 17th, 36O yards, in four strokes, while the balance of her card showed steady work
 The eight players will continue to- morrow in the first round of match play, the drawings being as follows: Miss sutton vs, Miss Underwood, Miss Osgood vs. Miss H. Curtis, Miss M. Curtis vs, Miss Pauline Maclzay, Mrs. Brooke vs. Miss Adams
 Mrs. George w. Roope defeated Miss Pauline Mackay of Oakley, the 1905 na- tionai champion, at the local country club two weeks ago in one of the clos est matches ever witnesses in this city. The match was witnessed by large crowd of Boston people. Mrs. 'Roope is new conner and is advancing well to- wards the women's golf championship.

AT THE WHITE CITY.
Deputy sherins Highly Delighted With
 What They Saw.

What They Saw.
 Horace Johnson, Mir. Tarr and Man ager Sam speck. of the White City, all promise pleasant weather for to-day. There has been considerable weather lately, but not just the kind that s liked this time of the year by anyone. Manager Speck is a good-natured indi- vidual and seldom loses his equilibrium in any emergency, but he does want little of the pleasant from above instead of so much "watered stock"
 This week he has great free out door attraction in the five Romano sis ters, who appear in a series of the lat est European dances. Their costumes are superb, and of course they cannot show in the rain and spoil them. With clear weather to-day a great crowd is expected both afternoon and evening.
 Every patron to-day and tomorrow, remember, receives the equivalent of free admission in a free ticket for a ride on the scenic railway, the chute, the miniature railway or the foolish house. Free coupons for the $200 worth of silverware and watches to be award ed on Saturday will also be given at the gate.
 Yesterday Sheriff Durham and his deputies and friends were guests of Manager Speck at the White City. Despite the rain, they greatly enjoyed the many attractions and pronounced the camera-phone wonderful inven- ton. vesta Victoris was hit in her songs, as was also the beautiful little moral skit, ",Tit for Tat"
 One could hardly drag the deputies away from the Filipino midgets, the smallest twins in the world. The re- markable size of their heads caused even the hardened warrant servers" to open their mouths in wonder. Dick Kirck pronounced them the most in- teresting human beings he had ever seen.
 Probably the most interesting thing on the programme was the visit to see the East Indian dancers. These grace ful and beautiful women were entrance ing to all.

SIXTIETH. ANNIVERSARY.
HAMBURG-AMERICAN.
From Small Beginning the Company Now Sends Out
 Floating Palaces.

Sixty years in existence, the Ham, burg American line can point to the largest ocean steamship fleet in the world, whose house-lag is known on every sea and in the chief port of every continent. It is difficult to realize what this veritable armada of commerce has accomplished. On May 27, 1Sz7, the company was established with a mod est capital and high hopes Threa clipper ships were built and the battle with the British began for control of ocean transportation. The Deutschland. Nordamerika and Rhein were the pio- neer vessels. The Elbe, Oder ana Donau followed, and the fleet" aver aged about TIT tons vessel. A score of cabin passengers, 200 steerage pas- sengers and a little freight was the full complement of each. The time for atrip averaged from 29 to 10 days. The Kaiserin Auguste Victoria made her maiden trip the other day and carried 57O first class, 300 second class, 25O third class and 800 steerage passengers, in addition to crew of $50 and all with out oyercrowding, This contrast shows the company's marvellous progress.
 In 1854 the company adopted steam power and in 1887, the twin-screw sys- ten. This latter occasion was the first application of this method of propulsion for merchantmen. Having solved In the manner outlined the question of speed and service, the company next turned its attention to increasing the comfort and ease of it's patrons. Sea sickness was measurably overcome by building vessels of great burden-1S,- 900 tons, which later was increased to 16,OOO tons in the case of the ''Deutsch- land" and to 23,000 tons in the case of the "Amerika" Sumptuous apart ments, magnificent furnishings, florist shops, palm gardens sparkling foun- tains, libraries, hydropathic and cleo tric baths, gymnasiums and a force of trained nurses are found on the Ameri- ka and Kaiserin Auguste Victoria. They are veritable floating palaces. Every modern precaution for speed and safety is installed in the vessels of the Hamburg American line. Its fleet con- sists of 371 vessels in all, of which 16S are ocean-going, with total tonnage of 95669S tons. Of this number twenty three are twin-screw Steamships. Fifty ] eight different services are maintained, and in 1908, 1,256 round trips were 4 completed, carrying 3S3,926 passengers and S,S04,79S tons of freight For the passenger there is ever an atmosphere of duty and responsibility on the part of the officers and the crew, and this principle has been largely responsible for the confidence and trust of the pubs | lie so largely given it.

swAMPED OFF sTRATFoRD LIGHT. AnsonIa Fishing Party Has 8 Harrow-
 ing Experience.

A story came from the stratford lighthouse yesterday of party of eight Ansonians who narrowly missed wa tery graves in that vicinity Sunday. According to the story, the party left Derby docks in a small naphtha launch on a fishing expedition, and when off the Stratford light the little craft was swamped by the heavy sea that was rolling. Seeing the peril of the young men. the lighthouse keeper put out for them in his dory and brought them all safely to shore, though after consid- erable of struggle. The names of the young men could not be learned.
