claimed that the general principles
of the law might be attacked, but
no such an attack has been made I
and the court in this opinion merely
decides some Of the instances in
which the legislature has control
over the method of nominating can
didates and that, in the thirty per-
cent requirement, they have not gone
beyond the bounds of reason. Judge
Fisk dissents from the conclusion of
his associates and holds that the
thirty percent provision is unreason-
able and should not be sustained.
Some nominees for county offices
will, under this decision, fail to get
on the ballot as party nominees. But
county campaigns in this state are
pretty thorough and voters are given
to looking over the official ballot
pretty thoroughly, and it is ques-
tion whether the candidate loses
much through his failure to get his
name in the party column. -,@s,
The provision Of the legislature
covering this entire matter is, brief.
~, this:J At least thirty percent of
the vote, of the party cast at the pre-
aceding general election for secretary
of state must be cast for any candi-
date or candidates for any particular
Office before he becomes the party
nominee. II there are two or more
Earty candidates, at least thirty per-
cent. of the total party vote must be
cast, not for the highest candidate,
but for all the candidates, taking
the sum of their votes. This makes
thirty percent of the party vote nee
essary before it can be deemed an ex-.
preston of party choice. 49,"
| While it may be human tendency
to look on it from partisan stand
i point, the provision does not seem
to be unreasonable or oppressive.
Rather does it seem to encourage a
full party expression in the matter of
choice by a generous party vote at
the primaries And, as we have said
| heretofore, it discourages the parti-
cipation in Republican primary
choice by Democrats and vice versa.
Of course some inconsistencies in the
| law are so apparent that amend
ment must follow upon the meeting
!. of the coming legislature.

GERMANY CAUSE OF BREAK
Responsible for Balkan Situation. De.
 clarcs Austrian NJ. P.

Vienna, Feb. IS. While semi-official assurances are given here that the prospects are brighter for an amicable settlement of the difficulties arising out of the Austrian railroad plans through mutnal concessions. both the Austrian and Russian governments be- ing sincerely anxious that there shall be no disturbance of the Muersteg agreement, it is declared in Anglo Rus sian diplomatic circles that a satisfac- tory arrangement is still far distant.
 A prominent member of the Austrian parliament, speaking of the present situation to-day, said:
 'I have good reason to believe that Baron Non Achrenthal had settled ev- ervthing concerning the Novipazar railroad with Russia when Germany commenced ostentatiously to support the Austrian plans. and Italy. by her silence. led to the belief that she too. would back up Austria, There inffu- ences had the effect at St. Petersburg Of causing revulsion against the Aus trian proposals. and the situation now is somewhat confusing Ii is evident that there are two camps among the signatory powers. and Italy's position tween the two.

ROSES FOR DuNN'S MEh
Railroad Police Chief Thal:ks Them for Their Cooperation, and Promises to Return
 Favor.

That Chief CoWles' recommenda- tions have been carefully considered by the board of police commissioners and not thrown aside as has been evil dent on many previous occasions with annual reports was shown last night when it was voted to ask the civil ser vice board to hold an examination for supernumeray policemen immediate ly.
 While everyone may take this ex- animation, it is designed primarily with the purpose of getting an Italian, who will later become a detective on the force. After passing the eXamina- ton, the Italian would have to serve six months as a supernumerary before becoming a policeman of grade F. and then he could be appointed a de- tective or assigned to work in the de- tective department The latter case would probably obtain in this instance as a detective is generally appointed from grade A, after at least three years of service, The need of an Ital- ian in the department. however. is so great that work in the detective hu- rean would commence immediately. Since the published report of Chief Cowles' recommendation in this mat i ter, there have been at least twenty ] applications at the police office for the l position of detective The men have 1 many been under size. but several of i them have been large enough to pass physically.. They have all been clean efficient looking men
 i Another recommendation by the ! chief on which action was taken last night was that toward giving the po- lice some power to regulate traffic
 especially in the congested portions of
 the city. A committee consisting of i Commissioners Smith and Fertman
 was appointed to confer with Chiei i Cowles and Corporation Counsel Rog- CTS for the framing of s;ich an ordi- j nance. later to be submitted to the ! board of aldermen of the city This ] same committee WIS authorized tc frame an ordinance which would dc away wi sitwa!n merchants who l come here every time there Is big

MEANING OF CRUISE
President Not Knocking Chips from Any Nations

TAFT'S VIGOROUS DEFENSE
Declares That Roosevelt Has Accom-. plishcd More for Peace Than
 Any King.

Concord, x. H H, Fob 1S.-S Secretary of War William H. Taft had few spare moments from the time of his ar rival in New Hampshire this forenoon until q late hour tonight. He deliv- cred two addresses. one at Concord. the other at Manchester. and attended several receptions. luncheon and a dinner given in his honor.
 His main. address was in part as fol- lows
 You all remember our democratic opponents attacking the president The odore Roosevelt. when he was running for tho presidency as gentleman whom it was unsafe to trust with tho power of government. that he would walk about the stage and the world with 2 chip on his shoulder. and that as soon as tle shadow of Mckinley g administration had lifted and he was given an independent latitude from the people. we would get into a fight at orce. What has been the result? IL has bean said that he wants the navy to go round and knock the chips off in order to show the world what great people we arc. What has been the result of the increase of the navy and Theodore Roosevelt at the head of it !. Never before in the history of tho world has a president or a king made so much for righteousness and neace among the nations as Theodore Roose. welt
 q evidently have the audience with me. Now. wo need navy: we are a wealthy people; we do not want to us, navy to fight; we want to use navy ] to prevent fighting And a navy that will prevent fighting is a navy com I mensurate with our wealth. with ou population and with the extent of ou, l jurisdiction and therefore when Theo i dore Roosevelt is in favor of increa sin. the navy. | venture to say you vii i find people back Of him in carrying ou that policy
 If we have got navy at aH VI VuSht t' hloN tllnt We itdAf tllf- oti' there is nothing that tests the eficac, of navy so much as long trip lik that which these sixteen hattlesh' D are taking Ii is nobody's hdsines where those battleships are going pro vided they keep to the ocean and n. invade anybodys land They ase opf on practice trip. they are going f i the Pacific side oe this country waer We have a coaat line nearly as lon as that of the hlantic side. and it proper measure of training for ou navy.

New Haven Musicians Work in the Concert at Woolsey Hall of a High
 Order.
MCDOWELL SUITE WAS FINE
lis Rendition Requires That it be Placed on tho Top Shelf of the Orchestra's
 Work.

If Is a pleasant thing to he able to record the verdict. Well done" in fa- vor of the performers of program of genuine musical worth
 The New Haven symphony orchestra and it's conductor, Professor Parker, certainly earned that verdict In the Symphony concert performance yestcr- day afternoon because with the excep- ton of one or two defective spots in the McDowell suite ' vas the most polished presentation of a symphony program that tho orchestra has ever offere,l to the public
 The program consisted of Symphony No. in E major" by Joachim Raff, Suite for orchestra op 42, by Ed ward Alexander McDowell Invitation to the Dince," by Weber. overture to Egmont," by Beethoven: "Recitatlve and aria from L'Herodlade," by Mas senct, and four songs with piano &C., compartment sung by Mir. Rogers
 Only three movements of tho sym phony were played, due to the lengthi-
 
 performed with such perfect assurance and good balance that the composition will have to be placed on the top shelf of orchestra achievements by the New Haven orchestra.
 The Mcdowell suite presents a series of love pictures under the following ru- brics: I In a haunted forest H. Sum mer idyle III In October ". The Shepherds Song V. Wood Spirits They are all of great vividness and beauty. particularly so the third num- ber In october" where one can act ualy feel tho crisp, exhfaratlng air of the autumn, while the conjurer takes you along on brisk walk across the l fields and through the woods Sudden ] ly note of sadness creeps in when you glance at the turning foliage and 1 tho departure of natures active life but mol This will not do! Up and for ward again. the pulses are throbbing | with life and the world is full of ioy! l After awhile. however, you become conscious of the fact that a stray thought from your former sadness has remained with you. that what h IS hap pcned to nature now VIII some day in cvitably happen to yourself-lnother note of sadness steels in again only to be dispcllel a moment later by the same restless, pulsating energy of life within
 The performance of the suite as a whole was not as fawless as might have been desired. but then it Is new to the orchestra. and the time for its preparation had been short.
 Weber's Invitation to the Dante, arranged by Hector Berlioz, was also played very well, but t is to be regret. ted that the orchestra does not use tho Felix weingartner arrangement as that i. so much more effective. Berlio, made his orchestration in 1Sil in ordei to insert it in the opera Der Freis. chutz." then given under his direction at the Royal Academy of Music ir p,ris Rerlioz was practically com nelied 70 take this step, because "De' I,reischutz" contains no ballet. and a, inc rules of the academy did not allo, operas without a ballet to he perform cd thcre. something had to he done and tbis composition for the piano b, inc same composer. affording the easi eel solution of the difficulty. was con OContjnued on Second page)

Negro Convention Endorses Forakcr
 or Men Like Him"

Washington, Feb. 1S.-Resolutions demanding the restoration to the army of the colored troops dismissed as the result of the Brownsville affair were adopted at a mass meeting here to-day at which addresses were made by Bishops Turner of Atlanta, w. D. Chappelle of Nashville, and other leaders of the colored race Fifteen states having large colored popula- tion were represented,
 The resolutions further urge colored voters everywhere to qualify fo the franchise, participate in primaries and conventions and east their ballots for Senator Foraker or men who, like him, have stood up manfully against the most powerful influence in defence of the rights of these men who had imperilled their lives in the service of our common country"

ST0REKEEPER BUMC0ED
Louis LocffcI Worked for S12.50 and
 Much Trouble by Jolly Tar.

A clever deal to which there were two unsuspecting parties, one of whom was himself, was worked on Louis Loeffel, who keeps a grocery store at 641 Chapel street, yesterday, In the morning a young tar sailed into the store and ordered $56 worth of gro ceries, saying he wanted them for a barge the w. Walsh moored to Canal dock. He then went away. and at F. F. Fowlers store on State street ordered $12,50 worth of tinware, ask ing that it be delivered at the same place and the bill be given him. Go- ing to MT, Loeffel with the bill, he asked for money to pay it, telling him to lump the sum with his grocery bill.
 Mir. Loeffel accommodating ponied up the $12.50 and the tar went his way The groceries and the tinware were delivered, but there was no boat. Neither had the Fowler store been paid. Detectives are looking for the man with the S12.50

SARGENT EDWARDS SITE IS CERTAIN Negotiations Concluded for the Purchase of Properties for
 New County Court
 Buildings. CITY BEAUTIFUL STRIDE Structures as Planned Will bc Very Handsome Addition to the
 Architecture of the
 City.
CITY BEAUTIFUL STRIDE

An agreement has been reached Gn- der which the property now occupied by the Sargent and Edwards home steads, at the corner of Church ard Elm streets. will become the property of the county for the erection thereon of the new county court house which has been planned and in prospective now for some time. The property was carly singled out as the ideal one for the building and with this as the key stone the plans for the city beautiful have been thought out but the hitch hitherto has heen in securing the con sent of tho owners of the land to the transferal of their property This has been arranged now, and in conse- quence of the latest conference on the subject the final details only remain to be determined upon, the purchase being about as well as made. The erection of the new county building on this property facing the green now becomes by this agreement an assured fact.
 The two pieces of property which are included in the proposed purchase contain two of the most prominent family residences of the city They have stood for many years side by side with the Bristol residence, which has already given place for the erection of the handsome new public library
 which is the gift of the late Mrs. | Hoadle. E. Ives.
 The new county buildings which are ! planned will be very handsome ad- l dition to the architecture of the city | and with the library at its side there | will be most imposing facade pre- scented on the north side of the green when all is completed. That the com mittee of which Major John Q. Tison ! is chairman has succeeded in securing | this desirable site will be cause of
 congratulation on the part of New
 Haveners in general and upon those 1 interested in the development of the
 city beautiful plans in particular. To | George Dudley Seymour, who may bc | given the title of the Father of the | City Beautiful movement" in particu- I lar is credit due that his original plan ! for the development of this part of
 New Haven seems thus so well as-
 sured of ultimate success

cal analysis showed morphine to be present and that this was also found in the urine, and that the findings in the body aside from the bullet wound were in mo way Inconsistent with opium poisnnlng, N And hofore further considering Dr, Wolffs report, it may be well to recall that the conclusion was reached from the distribution Of blood oh the front Of the body and uhdersult, on the top of the stocking and on the soles of the stockings that Mir. Edwards must have been in an upright position after the injury was received, that he must have actually walked to account for the appearance of the stain on the soles of the stock ings, and that thee blood could not have been distributed as it was if the shot was received in bed and he had not been up after this. Also that the location of the wound. although unus- ual for one self-infiicted. was such that 1t might perfectly well have been so received and that the direction of the wound, upward and slightly back ward. would. correspond entirely with the supposition that it was shot from a revolver held in Mir Edwards rlght hand; and from the external appear ances of the wound that the revolver must have been very close to the ear. Also that Athe morphine. probably taken in the form of laudanum, had been in the stomach sufficiently long to be absorbed, pass through the .tis- sues and be excreted in the urine And that the morphine poisoning and the cerebral injury combined caused death and that the findings were entirely consistent with death by suicide It was appreciated that this involved the fsupposition that MT.
