BITULITHIC WINS.
Board of Public Works Voted for It
 Mayor Opposed It.

The board of public works held a meeting this afternoon and decided the much discussed question regard ing the kind of permanent pavement to be used in Waterbury for certain streets. Mayor Thoms presided and all the members were present. also Engineer Cairns and Superintendent Kilduff of the street department.
 Mayor Thoms made very strong plea for asphalt on West Main street. He said he regarded 1t as the main gateway into the city and that the best was none too good for it. He would like wood pavement there, but probably that was too expensive. He was opposed by Engineer Cairns and Commissioners Dennison, Finn and Nell, who took the ground that bitu- lithic in their judgment is just as durable as asphalt, although it does not look so well. A motion of Mir Walker that West Main street be paved with bitulithic on six-inch concrete base was finally adopted without opposition. but before reach ing that point the mayor remarked that while he acknowledged the right of the commissioners to decide, he wished to go on record as fayoring asphalt for that street.
 The other streets to be paved are Elizabeth street and portions of Elizabeth and Bishop streets. The plan is to do two streets on the six inch concrete foundation and two on broken stone. The former costs s2.s0 a yard and the latter s2.25.
 The total cost of the contracts awarded amounted to s3s.532.
 A communication was read from the Consolidated Railway Co stating that they had commenced to install the different lights ordered by the city and will have them rendering service shortly. It was ordered on h,a

. MIND A TELEGRAPH.
How Sympathetic Messages Are Passed Between Distant Friends.

Are you sensitive? There is no doubt that some persons are so or ganized as to make natural sensitives. They have remarkable intuitive pow CT, which means that they receive im- pressions easily. Supposing two sen sitives to be closely related to one another or drawn together by a bond of sympathy. and supposing them to be in different parts of the world, and the life of the one to be in danger, the first thought he would project into space would be for his distant friend. If that friend is actively engaged at the time the message may be lost, but if he happens to be in passive state his brain will receive some impress sion, clear or confused, which will make him think of the absentee and render him anxious. as if som)ething had gone wrong with him. Sudh mes sages are more common at night, be- cause we are less preoccupied than during the day. By means of this wire. less telegraphy an image is produced on the brain which is projected out wards, causing the absent friend to be seen as If in body, and even the actual circumstances of his danger ous position may be produced. Thus saith Dr. Bernard Hollander, of Lon don.

THE PORTER ESTATE.
Heirs and Attorneys Are Trying to ..t Straighten It Out,

Some of the heirs of the late James Porter are at cross purposes. the sis ters have fallen out and the law has been invoked. During the probate examination of J. Ward Porter, ad- ministrator on the estate of his fa- ther, James Porter, Attorney Bronson counsel for the married sisters, Mrs Emily Elliot of Hillside avenue and Mrs Sarah Hine of East Main street was constantly aiming to get him to bring suit against the unmarried sis ters, Fannie and Mary to recover two houses their father deeded to them some years before his death. But the attitude of the administrator was that his father knew what he was doing when he gave the sisters the deeds in question and ne would not undertake to set aside anything his father had done. Consequently, finding the administrator obdurate, Attorney Bronson started proceedings on behalf of the married sisters to have set aside the deeds to the two houses. It is estimated that each house Is worth about $5,000 at least.
 Besides that, Ervis E. Wright, ad- ministrator on the estate of Mrs Porter, who was the wife of James Porter and mother of the heirs men, tioned. has brought suit against the unmarried sisters, Fannie and Mary, to recover from them $4,000 which their mother gave them some years before she died.
 In the suit against the administra- tor for the recovery of the houses 1t is alleged that the old man was in- competent because of old age to transact his business affairs profita- bly, and furthermore that he was un- der the undue influence of his two daughters when he gave them the deeds to the property in dispute.
 Judge Cowell and Attorney Guil- foile will defend both cases.

WAISTS PAPER
Chicago Chronicle Gives Up Pub lication-Reiused 10 Sup
 port Bryan.

Chicago. May 31.-The Chicago Chronicle this morning announces that 1t will cease publication with this issue owing to the fact that the paper has been unprofitable for some time. The official notice. signed by the editor, H. w. Seymour, follows:
 "As it has not been profitable of late, publication of the Chronicle will be suspended with this issue. All liabilities of the Chicago Chroni- cle Go will be met as usual in the regular course.''
 The Chronicle began publication on May 28, 1895, as the only demo- cratic morning paper then in Chi- cago. John RS Walsh, one of the chief owners, and formerly president of the Chicago National bank, re- fused the support of his paper to w. J. Bryan during Bryan's candidacy for the presidency, and during the last national campaign the Chronicle came out as republican newspaper.
 The last issue of the Chicago, Chronicle was No 4. of volume IS.

NO UNION BEER
American Federation of Labor Says Brewery Workers Un-
 ion is No More.

Chicago, May 31.-The last barrel of union" beer in Chicago and the whole country, according to an edict of the American Federation of Labor, will be manufactured to-day. At midnight the brewery workers union will cease to exist in the eyes of the national labor leaders, and the two million organized working men in the United States will be asked to get on the water wagon or use some other kind of beverage. The brewery employees have rebelled against President Gompers and the national labor executive council, and they are to be disciplined. The method adopted is that of expulsion.
 Secretary Kemper of the local union said the 5000 brewery workers in Chicago will go on brewing beer whether the American Federation of Labor regards it officially as a "unio..'" product Or not.
 The trouble has been growing for several years. Two months ago the national label council met in Wash .ington and gave the brewery work CTS union until June 1 to comply with an order to oust all engineers, fremen and teamsterss from its or ganization. These men were under the protection of the union which was in conflict with the principle of trade autonomy upheld by the fed eration. The brewery employees then took vote and 98 per cent of the membership favored resistance to the order. which brought about the present situation.

Slow Trip from New York.

It took a Waterbury party six hours to get home from New York yesterday They left the grand cen tral depot at s o'clock and reached Waterbury a few minutes before 2. All the difficulty and interruptions were encountered between Bridgeport and Waterbury. At Beacon Falls their train was held up for twenty minHics to permit a freight to get by. and the train travelled % slowly that the pas sengers presumed the trouble was fear of an accident occurring on account of the strike of the railroad laborers. Ee- low Seymour some of the passengers got oT the train and walked to Sey- mour gpttinE there before the train did- Some of the passengers charged the conductor snd engineer with pick Ing strawberries on the roadside.

Brains.

Famous brains are of four sorts. The lowest group contains the minds that are stimulated greatly by alco- hol. tea and other drugs by impress sions derived from the senses: the second group contains the infant prod igies, whose intellectual powers wane in middle age; the third group con tains the pathological cases usually terminating in insanity; the fourth and highest group is that of true geniuses. whose powers remain unim- paired until old age. This is Hause- mann's classification.
 Spitzka has come to the conclusion that men eminent in exact sciences, like astronomy and mathematics. have the greatest average brain weight. Next come the men of action, includ- ing statesmen and artists. after these come the biologists. geologists and other representatives of the descrip- tive sciences.

SAILORS ON STRIKE.
French Commerce Threatened With
 A General Tie-up.

Paris, May 31.-French commerce is threatened with complete paralysis as result of the general strike of sailors belonging to the naval re- serve which went into operation at daylight at all the ports of France. The naval reserves comprise almost the entire maritime population de- voted to seafaring life. They num- Der about 117,000 men, of whom 25,- 900 belong to the war fleet. Prac- tically the entire personnel of the merchant marine. as we'll as the long, shoremen are inscribed in the naval reserve. The executive committee of national seamen's union ordered the strike because the members of the union regard the governments new bill increasing pensions from $40.S0 to $72.50 in the case of sea- men and from $156 to $200 in the case of captains, as being inade- quate.
 The reports thus far received indi- cate that the tieup is complete. At the Mediterranean, Atlantic and channel ports the crews in general left their ships. The government or dered the army transports at Mar seilles to be placed in commission in order to insure mail service between France and her African possessions, but the transportation companies were taken by surprise and are at the mercy of the strikers. The off, c.als of the French transatlantic company hope that the steamer La Provence will be able to sail from Havre tomorrow but 1t is not cer- tain that she can do so. Legally the companies are In position to coerce the men, as being members of the naval reserve. the crews are subject to heavy penalties for insubordina- ton. but 1t is regarded as more like ly that they will try to effect a com- promise instead of using force.

AFTER THE CHAPTERS
Attorney Heney Outlines Policy That Will Be Pursued in San
 Francisco Cases.

San Francisco. May 31.-In a statement issued last night, Assist ant District Attorney Francis J. Heney. head of the graft prosecu- ton, outlined the policy of the men who have made possible the indict- ment of nearly score of San Fran cisco's wealthy capitalists, denounces as malicious falsehoods the charges which have been made that the prosecutors are influenced by politi- cal motives and openly charges that some of the most powerful financial interests of the country have been brought into the battle on the side of the alleged bribe givers.
 Heney declares that the greatest crisis in the graft exposure is now at hand and that the greatest crisis in the history of San Francisco goes side by side with 1t. A meeting was held short time ago, he says, at which President Patrick Calhoun of the United Railroads called together . number of the heads of the largest San Francisco banks and sought their aid through a thinly yelled re- quest for backing in the carrying on of the car strike.
 The powerful influences which he set to work to injure the prosecu- ton, Heney says, have been hamper ing the prosecutors, as they have raised a sentiment of doubt as to the real motives behind the investi. gation.
 Admitting that the sixteen con- fessed bribe takers on the board of supervisors have been prlmised im- munity from prosecution, Heney de- clares that this step wss essential to the carrying out of tie work at hand. He stated that every effort to gain legal proof of corruption and bribery deals failed until the con- fessions were secured from the su- pervisors, and that to secure these the promise of immunity was given. In answer to the cry which he said had been raised by the capitalists in this city that the supervisors shall be punished, he points out that while the prosecutors were laboring for months to obtain proof concerning the briberies, none of the alleged bribe givers came forward to their assistance, but that as soon as they became involved they raised the cry of punish the bribe takers and let us go free"
 Heney asks the pertinent ques- ytion:l Which is the man who should be punished for the crime if one must be allowed to go free--the confessed bribe taker or the con fessed bribe giver?v
 Let us show" he continues, that no man. however wealthy he may be, Is greater than the law. Let us prove that the power of wealth capnot corrupt our courts and pre- vent the carrying out of justice."

Production Of OH.

Although the production of crude pe- troleum in America is making enor- nous strides every rear. the bulk of this comes from new territories which yield heavy oils containing little or no spirit. In fact. the field5 which have in the past supplied the world with petroleum spirit and high-class illum- mating oils are. 1t Is said. failing. so much so that the center of production is no longer In the eastern states. but lies equally between the gulf states and California. Recent work in the mideontinental fields shows. however. that there Is e prospect of the supply of hlgh-grsde oils being increased.-- Engineer.
