At a meeting of the Taft March Ing club last evening. speeches were made by Senator Irving Chase. Judge George Cowell and Congressman George Lilley. In predicting his re- marks. Congressman Lilley said that this was the first time during the campaign that he had chosen 10 speak on any but campaign issues, and he chose now to give the voters a plain statement of facts merely because he had "been accused of everything possible by George 8. Pal mer. who lives in the eastern part of the state. even Including horse stealing" Then the congressman denied everything that the Bouteli committee said about him. and in- timated that If he had been given . place on the committee he would have made Rome howl. Of course he would. Judge Cowell gave a his tory of republicanism from the begin- ming down to the time Lilley entered congress. Good place to stop. Sen ator Chase gave Candidate Bryan several hard raps, and why not? What more could be expected at a republican house warming, with the candidate for governor. the central figure. It was nice meeting from a republican standpoint, but the cap tain of the Taft Marching club has not been quite satisfied with things up to date, so he suggested that hereafter republicans turn out in large numbers and make things howl.

 Be Insane.

Yesterday afternoon Judge Ben nett In the superior court appointed Drs Peck, Francis Bacon and George l.. Hugo of New Haven a commis- sion to inquire into the mental condi- tion of August Molusky, who IS charged with the murder of James Meehan on the railroad tracks one night last spring. Molusky is in the county jail in New Haven and his ac- tions there combined with peculiar rumors have convinced Assistant States Attorney Kellogg that an in uuiry into the mans mental state IS advisable. At the time of the mur- der 1t was said that Molusky had been treated in most shameful man. ner by his fellow workmen and that in the death of Meehan the usual oc- currence resulted. the innocent snf- fered for the guilty. Some one, 1t was said, played joke on Molusky that fatal night and turning around he drew a revolver from his pocket and shot Meehan in the back, killing him instantly.

THE LILLEY LETTER.
Demand That It Be Printed-Taft
 May Not Visit Connecticut.

New Haven, Oct 14.-Matters po- litical are moving more rapidly than they did month ago in the state of Connecticut. The executive commit tee of the anti-Lilley republican league met yesterday in this city and received reports from the eight coun- ties of the state. All attempts to in terview the active members of the committee were unsuccessful, but in- Quiries as to the success of the move- ment were met with quiet smile which suggested confidence in the outcome. As one of the committee put it: "The campaign has just begun. Don't get discouraged. The end of the fight will be o'clock election day, when the last of the polls close"
 Considerable interest is being taken in the probability of Judge Taft's acquiescing in the printed itinerary arranged for him for par tial swing around the Connecticut circle the latter part of the month. There are said to be good reasons to believe that Judge Taft has not been consulted with regard to his dramatic one-day stand in state al- ready committed to his election and may not assent to 1t when ap- preached. It is thought to be un- likely that he would run the risk of entering Connecticut and appearing upon the same platform with MT Lilley in view of the fact that he must rely upon the support of con gress to carry out his policies should he be elected president. It is known that he has been advised by many of his personal friends not to interfere with the natural progress of the Con- necticut campaign. There is in fact more reason to believe that MT Taft will not visit Connecticut than there is that he will.
 Curiosity is rife also as to the ex- act wording of the letter the Asso- ciated Press referred to as having been received by Mir Lilley from Pres ident Roosevelt cordially wishing him "every success" In the ordi- nary run of things the receipt of such letter would have been prop erly followed by it's complete publica- tion, but MT Lilley's failure to give the press the letter itself has pro- voked popular call for it. It is ar gued that if President Roosevelt ac- tually sent him letter designed to help in the campaign. though 1t would be the first instance where he has interfered in state of which he is not a citizen, he would have so written it that its rext could be free ly published by It's recipient.

BOUND AND GAGGED.
Young Man Works a New Burglary
 Game in Brooklyn.

New York, Oct 14.-Representing himself to be real estate agent, a young man gained access to the home of Summerfield Mclean, wealthy Brooklyn publisher. and while Miss Beatrice Masten, younger sister of Mrs Mclean, was showing him over the premises, he suddenly overpow- cred her, bound her with picture wire tied a gag over her mouth and then leisurely searched the house for valu. ables.
 Failing to find iewelry, the robber returned to where Miss Masten lay and ordered her to tell him where 1t was concealed The young woman re- fused to comply, whereupon the rob- Der threatened her. Miss Masten then nodded toward bureau in which the jewels were hidden. The robber quickly secured them and left.
 It was nearly an hour before the young woman was discovered by her niece. A physician was called but Miss Masten was suffering so badly from shock that she was hardly able to tell what had happened.
 The rohber got away with jewelry and silrerware worth $1,000.

THE CITY COURT.
Raymond Polusky Got Two Heavy
 Fines This Morning.

John Cass kicked up row at the Jacques last evening and had trouble with the officer on duty there. In the city court to-day Judge Burpee fined him $7 and costs.
 It took two cops and half dozen citizens last evening to hold Raymond Polusky of Vine street. He was charged with intoxication, breach of the peace and resistance. A man named Single testified that he was on his way home after work and he saw Polusky standing on his veranda. Without any evident cause Polusky jumped off his veranda and onto Single and there was a mixup imme- diately. He broke me hat" said Single, punched me eye and then he goes for another fellow, who knocked him down. and they had it out. Now I'd like to know if l could get the price of me hat" Officers Mullings and Stevens told of their struggle with the accused, how they found him in yard with half a dozen persons trying to hold him down. Polusky's story was that he was going home from work after 6 o'clock when he was knocked down by half dozen fellows. He was not drunk, he said, but he had few beers." He called the policemen murderers and said they knocked fif- teen holes in his head and half a dozen in his wife's head, and that when he was taken to the station house he was thrown in cellar and left there four hours. This is the story usually told by the fellow in court whose libations were so numer- ous the night before that he does not remember thing about what hap pened. Polusky was fined $10 and costs and $15 and costs.
 A boy named John Bantler, aged 10, was charged with hitting anoth- CT boy named Isadore Roenben in the left eye with a brick. Roenben and his brother, who are peddlers, said they were sure the accused boy was the one who threw the brick, but the boy proved otherwise and the case was continued two weeks.
