Waterbury evening Democrat., 1908-10-19
LILLEY IS DENIED
George Palmer Gels Ailer Hln
 Igala Wllh . Sharp Stick

Editor of the Democrat.
 Dear Sir: Inasmuch as the news papers of the state have widely pub lished g so-called plain statement of facts" by George L. Lilley wherein he stated "that he had been accused of everything possible by George s. Palmer, even including horse steal irg," will you kindly do me the jus tice of giving equal publicity to my reply9
 The charge that l have accused MT Lilley of horse stealing Is an abso- lute falsehood characteristically de- signed to deceive the people by be- littling my public utterances regard ing him, falsehood malicious also in that what I have said about MT Lilley Is above my signature and need not be misread.
 In his so-called plain statement of facts" MT Lilley has not even hint ed at those essential and sworn facts which are spread upon the records of the congress of the United States. These records state that MT Lilley was "unjustifiably inaccurate" under oath-"made charges he knew were false," and further in attacking the reputation of innocent colleagues made use of anonymous and fraudu- lent leters, some of them written by his own secretary; these facts were proved by MT Lilley's own sworn tes- timony and confirmed by the testi- mony of his own packers and friends. MT Lilley's own record Is accusing him, not I.
 The various apologetic statements that MT Lilley did not have fair show, that congress was determined to down him--that the committee was grossly unjust to him, do not in the least explain away the despica- ble personal part he played in that investigation. All summer long the voters of the state have been waiting to see some explanation of these par ticular facts, which will tend to re- habilitate MT Lilley's reputation, and the straw vote at Danbury indicates that to-day tens of thousands of re- publican voters are likely to with hold their vote from MT Lilley until he makes plain statement of facts" which will not begin with a silly falsehood, but will explain why he did things and said things which forced the congress of the United States to brand him in terms which unfit him for public office

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

An anniversary requiem mass was celebrated at St Patrick's church this morning for the late William By ron.
 Every democratic voter in Brooklyn is requested to meet at the democratic headquarters, corner of Center and Leavenworth streets, to- night at 7:30. and take part in the short parade previous to the big rally at City hall.
 Counterfeit dollars are in circu- lation in Brooklyn and the public Is warned to be on the lookout for them. It is a poor imitation and can easily be detected if a person looks at the counterfeit a moment. It is well moulded but considerably lighter than regular half dollar and has no ring whatsoever. A couple were worked on Brooklyn storekeeper yesterday.
 Frank Smith. who was mention ed in the Democrat of Friday evening as having enjoyed his first years study abroad, in letter to his broth CT, Joseph A. Smith, Saturday des- cribed an audience which he and another Waterbury man, Charles Kane of West Main street, recently had with the pope. Kane is in seminary at Austria but he and Smith spent the months of August and Sep tember on a tour of Italy. Tn the letter Smith said that Pope Plus X took an added interest iE their visit when he heard they were from this country.
 The team which represented the Brooklyn Athletic club at the Driv- ing park yesterday afternoon against the Starlights will have to show much improvement before it will be in class with other elevens seek ing the championship of the state. It is true that several of the players whom the Brooklynites were banking on did not appear but If they are going to be with the team, they should get around to all games. Matthew Dunphy, manager of the aggregation is not discouraged by the showing of yesterday and says the team will practice all the harder dur ink the coming week. He still thinks that the players on whom so much depended will play with the team. They failed to put in an ap- pearance yesterday because they con- sidered the Naugatuck eleven a weak team. Captain John Hayes is of the opinion that the B. A. c. players will be in fine form for the All Water bury game which both teams will be so eager to win.

SHERIFF SMlTB ANGRY
Some 0ss Csughl In Sunday
 Rald Used Ills Name.

When City Sheriff Matthew J. Smith came down town this morning and saw In the papers that he had been arrested in a raid on Daniel Foley's saloon on Baldwin street he was very angry man. After making some inquiries about the raid and the names of the two men who were ar rested. the city sheriff concluded that someone tried to make scapegoat or him for the benefit of someone else, and he accordingly got madder.
 While the raid was made in fact' MT Smith was not arrested in 1t, nor had he known of the occurrence un- til he had read of 1t in the papers.
 According to good authority po- litical club of republican complexion was holding forth next door to the saloon, the packers of the club, re- publican office holders and candidates for office supplying the funds. It was said that while the gathering was of the republican ticket It's particular care was for the candidate for gov ernor, George l.. Lilley. After the raid the rumor was circulated that the city sheriff was one of the two men who were arrested, his name be- ing Smith. for the purpose of throw ing another light altogether on the occurrence. It would be very easy matter to connect the city sherin with the owner of the saloon, who Is an ex-alderman, an ex-commissioner of public safety, both being demo- crats, and it would be the most nat ural thing in the world that the sher- if should be electioneering at this time. The occurrence was the poli- tical sensation of the campaign, and it is likely to be topic of gossip for some time. Meanwhile the sheriff IS the maddest man in town.

The Occupant In the Rear.

''rs there young lady by the name of Evans living in this housew in- quired the strange woman of the timid appearing man at the front door.
 "Yes." returned he. with suddenly respectful and serious demeanor. '.She occupies the rear of this house, so you'd best step round to the rear door and knock gently. ma'am."
 'T did. but no one answered."
 "Ah. then. didn't you notice . sign on the door In the shape of a neat placardT' asked the man in tones of awe and admiration.
 "Yes. The placard said Out"
 "Then she's out. That's her sign, ma'am."
 DO you know when she will re- turn?'
 "No: we never know that. ma'am. In fsct. she comes and goes whenever she takes the notion and wants none to interfere with her doings or habits in any way. shape or manner. ma'am."

MUsLER X LIEBEsKIND.
Will Formally Open Their New Stors
 on Wednesday.

Beginning Wednesday the public of Waterbury will have the oppor- tunity of participating in one of the most spectacular fashion exhibitions held in this city in recent years. On that day the Musler & Liebeskind dry goods store, formerly the Quar- antee Credit Clothing Co, one of the oldest and popular firms of this city, will throw open its doors to the peo- pie of Waterbury and surrounding towns, all of whom are cordially in- vited to the big display.
 There are many agreeable sur- prises for those that have not seen the new Musler & Liebeskind build- ing. During the past three months force of workmen has completely transformed the building, making such changes that the old place is hardly recognizable. Although the renovating has been pushed with rapidity, all the details have been at- tended to. Two new floors have been added--floors which are as we'll lighted as any in the city-and these will be used for the new departments. dry goods and furnishings. A glass front, one of the finest in the state, is one of the big changes, and for several weeks it has been attracting much attention. So numerous and varied are the changes that to fully appreciate them it is necessary to make personal visit to the store.
 Nothing seems to be missing in this new emporium, which is now one of the largest and best equipped in the city. It Is real metropolitan busi- ness house.
 The ladies' cloak and suit depart ment is alone worth visit to tho store, as 1t has all the latest and most exclusive styles in women's early fall and winter raiment. Because of the late opening it has the advantage on other stores and certain models are found exclusively in Musler & Liebe- skind's. :.
 The mems and children's clothing department is large. store in itself. Nobby clothing approved by the stamp of we'll known houses is to be found in this department, which should be very popular part of the store. The same may be said of the dry goods department-always inter- esting to women, and doubly so in view of the endless variety of goods to be had here.
 Last, but not least, are the low prices, which always appeal most strongly to the public. Because of the large amount of purchasing done by this concern it is able to make prices very reasonable, so much so that it is big incentive to buy there. Wednesday is the day of the opening. Be one of the hundreds that attend on that day.
