THE NOISY FOURTH
A Little Care Will Save Many an
 Accident TO-M0rrOW.

Tomorrow will be busy day with people who have the care of chill dren. Tons of fireworks of every description will be exploded, and If the past be any criterion to go by many will be seriously injured. Be- sides the fireworks there will be the usual number of guns in the hands of irresponsible fellows, so that be, tween the whole of them the Fourth of July will make an anxious day for people who have children on the streets. To be sure the police will be active, but even so, they cannot be everywhere, and many will be at the mercy of so-called patriots who have no respect for the rights of their neighbors. People who have anybody sick who might be disturbed by the noise should make it a point to call on the health officer and sec that the house is placarded. If not the police may not be able to do much for tme. Some day no fire works will be exploded except such as will be conducted under munici- pal management, but in the mean time it behooves all to be on tine alert while almost everybody is hail. ding these deadly devices.

KNOCKED OFF BRIDGE
Baldwin St Man Badly Injured
 Coming From Ball Game.

Another serious accident occurred at Wedges corner yesterday while the crowd was waiting for cars after the ball game between Hartford and Waterbury James T. Dunn of a71 Baldwin street was knocked off tho structure known as Stupidity bridge and was badly shaken up. The man was carried into the center on a trolley. Dunn is said to have been walking along the stretch Of track where so many accidents have all most occurred during the season when he was knocked from the bridge by man on the running board of passing car. He shot through the air at a pretty fast clip as he was struck with much force and those who witnessed the accident were surprised that Dunn was not fatally injured.
 Some one will become aware of the fact soon that the people who attend the ball games at Reidville should be given some protection while wait ing for cars. The crowds flock along the tracks after the games and there Is very little room on either side of the rails. Since it is dangerous to proceed along the stretch of ground while the cars are in operation, the people should not be allowed to do so. Two bad accidents have taken place there this season and there are a couple of months more of baseball. Perhaps when a life is lost there some action will be taken.

Dr. CadwnIader's Body Cremated ct
 London-Remnins Now MissinE.
 PHILADELPHIA,J July 3.-The ashes of Dr. Charles E. Cadwalader, a mem- Der of distinguished Philadelphia family, who died last month in London, are lost The funeral, which was to have been held July in Christ church, has been postponed indefinitely.
 Dr. Cadwalader's body was cremat- ed, and the ashes were expressed from London on the steamship New York, which was docked in New York last Saturday. The package, which was only one foot square, was placed in one of many boxes containing every variety of merchandise, but no record was made of the particular box in which it was placed There was no mention of 1t on the manifest. It is said that 1t will be found eventually.
 Dr. Cqdwalader shocked Philadel- phia's exclusive society a few years ago by marrying his housekeeper, Bridget Mary Ryan. Soon after that episode the Cadwaladers took up their residence in London.

BROKE SEVERAL BONES
Ten Year Old Boy Fell Off Spoon
 Shop Bridge.

Michael Lawlor, age 10, son of Michael Lawlor of AS Fuller street, fell off the Spoon shop bridge on Silver street yesterday and narrow ly escaped being fatally injured. As it was the boy had couple of ribs fractured and both bones in his fore arm broken. It has been the prac- tice of children for number of years to climb upon the railing of the bridge which spans the tracks near the Roger Bros factory. Daily they can be seen fooling there. Yes terday Lawlor was passing with some companions and stopped to look at a switcher. It is thought that young Lawlor climbed upon tho railing, lost his balance and fell to the tracks several feet below. For tunately he landed in such manner that his head did not come in con- tact with the rails or ties. He was attended by Dr Kilmartin. The boy is resting comfortably to-day.

Of HUNGARY
FOR KAISER'S SON

BERLIN, June 15.-Rumors are again
current that the Kaiser is openly work
ing for his favorite plan of making his
second son, Prince Friedrich, King of
Hungary, to succeed old Emperor Fran
els Joseph, who is reported to be in
very poor health
The particular reason which has set
tongues wagging at the present time
IS the fact that the other day the
Kaiser sent the chamberlain of the
household Of the Empress to Budapest
on a secret mission.
How much truth there is in all this
it is very difficult 10 ascertain, but 1t
is quite certain that Baron Won Mir
bach went 10 Budapest, that he eXerts
considerable influence among leading
Hungarians and that he is making
propaganda for the young prince by
telling the leaders Of the various Hun
garian parties that this second son Of
the house Of Hohenzollern is a most
talented young man and that he speaks
Hungarian like a native.
From the very fact that the official
press of Vienna has made TO comment
upon the visit OF tho baron to the Hun
garian capital one may draw the con-
clusion that Emperor Francis Joseph is
not opposed to the ambitious plans Of
The Kaiser.

GERMANS ENCROACH
ON BRITISH SPHERE

BERLIN, June Ito oppose England
in every possible way, without going to
actual war. seems to be the object Of
the German government and bloOdless
battles are being waged between the
two countries in the near East, new de-
velopment taking place almost every
week.
For years England has considered Per
STA part Of the British sphere Of influ-
ence. and has strongly opposed any at
tempt Of Germany to gain a foothold in
the country Of the Shah. 1t will. there
fore, arouse storm Of Indignation in
England that several leading financial
institutions In Germany. including the
DeutsChe Bank Dresdner Bank and the
National Bank OF Germany, commanding
between them hundreds of millions Of
marks. have combined to found a new
German bank at Bagdad, which is in
tended to be the nucleus Of far-reaching
enterprises in Persia and surrounding
countries.
Several schemes Of railroad construc-
ton IN Asiatic Turkey and Persia are
to be taken up and financed by the new
bank, and the promoters OF the new ven
ture are also about to start the con-
struction OF vast irrigation system OF
MesopOtamin, whereby the fertility OF
the land will be largely increased.

stone by stone and re-erected in one OF
the public squares in Louisiana.
Mr.. Washburne's first advances were
received by the leaders Of the Commune,
but he insisted so much and with such
ability, Offering, moreover, a sum OF
$4,000, that finally they ended by con-
senting TO the arrangement. The Com
mune pressed the purchasers to carry
out the bargain and rid them of the
monument. But one after another the
purchasers invented pretexts against
carrying out the work.
First of all. il was the difficulty Of
procuring means Of transport for such
heavy material, and then again the diff
ficulty of passing through the lines OF
the besieging army. Then the condi-
tons of the sea prevented the vessel
from crossing the Atlantic. And so it
went on, until, after two months of pa
tient efforts, Mr.. Washburne and his
generous fellow-citizen, whose name Il
has been impossible for me to discover,
who in these tragic times showed such
undoubted diplomatic ability, saw an
other lberating power come to their
help. Paris returned to France, and
