BRYAN OR GRAY
Democrats Of Connecticut Will
Meet In Convention at New
Haven T0-M0rrow
PERHAPSGOV JOHNSON

The delegates to the democratic
state convention will get together to-
night for the purpose of outlining a
plan of action for the great battle
which is to decide whether Connecti-
cut will be for Bryan or not at the
national convention. The principal
thing to be talked over tonight Is
the matter of filing vacancies on the
state central committee. The names
of several good men have been men
toned for the berths, but at this
time nobody cares to name the sue
cessful candidates, although some say
the new committeeman from the
fifteenth and sixteenth will be j. H.
Frenzy and Thomas Magner. But
you never can tell and probably this
is the reason nobody cares to wager
anything on the result.
The delegates, headed by Mayor
w. E. Thoms, will leave for New
Haven tomorrow afternoon, and will
be accompanied by number of other
democrats who intend to remain un-
til after the convention adiourns.
There is no doubt how the dele
gates stand with reference to Bryan.
They are solid against him and ex-
pect to trump up sufficient numbers
from other towns who think as they
do to send delegates to th>~national
convention who will use their infiu-
ence to defeat the ambitions of the
boy orator of the Platte. Meanwhile
the Bryan men do not acknowledge
defeat and are up and doing. Even
right here in Waterbury scouts have
been sent out all over the country
to stump for Bryan and If half what
they say be true Mayor Thoms and
his brave band of followers will be
routed horse and foot. In fact the
Bryan men In the valley towns feel
confident that they will be able to
send Senator Kennedy to the conven-
ton and if they do this the Water
bury delegation will be down and
out. In any case both sides are con-
fident of winning out and as con-
sequence considerable interest Is cen
tered in the result.
The convention will open at the
New Haven theater at o'clock to-
afternoon for the purpose of
hearing all contesting delegations
and perfecting the temporary roll.
The senatorial 'caucuses will be held
at 10 O'Clock tomorrow night when
the real battles will take place. A
few prominent democrats went down
to New Haven to-day to dosmission
airy /work and others slipped on
quietly and are operating in other
places. When they all get together
night there will be some
thing doing.

Washington, April 27.-The select
committee of the house appointed by
Speaker Cannon to inquire into the
complaint of the American Newspa-
per Publishers association regarding

his complete willingness to send to
Washington suitable officials with
full information regarding affairs of
this company as you will be apt to
wish"
Chairman Mann telegraphed in re-
ply that the committee would be glad
to have any officials or interested per-
sons at the hearing as the committee
was desirous of obtaining the fullest
information possible. He added that
the committee would be pleased to
have the International Paper Co ap-
pear Immediately after the testi-
mony of the publishers association
shall have been completed
Chairman Mann then said the COM
mittee desired to have each of the
publishers now here testify as to his
personal knowledge of the several
matters complained of

BURIED ALIVE.
Refugee Was Bundled Into a Grave
After Being Shot.

New York, April 27.-The French
cruiser D'Estrees is in port from
Hayti, where the ship was sent at
the time of the recent attempted rev.
olution to look after French inter-
ests. The officers of the ship have
many stories TO tell of the revolution.
While at Port Au Prince, Hayti,
the DEstrees was the haven for
eighty refugees, and the officers told
yesterday of the horrors of the noe
turnal execution on March Is Of q
group of men accused of attempting
to incite a revolution a few days af-
ter President, Nord Alexis had quell-
ed rising against his administers
tion.
There were not enough graves dug
for all the persons who were shot
and one prominent merchant had to
sit and watch the soldiers dig his fu-
ture burial place
AS the firing squad was in hurry
his grave was dug only of sufficient
size to allow him to be buried with
his arms and knees together. The
bullets failed to kill him and he was
jumbled into the hole, which was yet
too small. Then the grave diggers
pushed him in with their shovels, and
while they were covering him he
sought to protest by moving his
hands.

a formal protest against the exten-
sion by Japan of the administration
of Korea to include the Chientao ter
ritory, the district between Korea and
China, the sovereignty of which is in
dispute China declares that Japan
declares that Japan has accomplished
this in surreptitious manner and
says that this extension of control
strengthens the position of Marquis
Ito, resident general Of Korea who Is
represented in Chientao by three Of
ficials of the residency.
The China foreign board finds that
Japan has imposed the burden Of
proof in the Chientao boundary con-
troversy upon China and that Japan
has admitted the justice of the Chi.
nese case as submitted but it de-
clares that Japan has invaded Chen
tao while refusing to reply to the
Chinese representations in the mat
ter on the ground that Marquis tic
is i'll and that Toxic is a present oc-
cupied with other affairs. Japan it
is declared here will take advantage
of the delay and she is threatening tc
annul the negotiations already start
ed between Tang-Shao-Yi, the gov
ernor of Mukden province and aBron
Hayashi, the japanese minister tc

sets of delegates will go to the ma
tional republican convention from
the sixth congressional district OF
Mississippi. At the convention here
yesterday it was proposed to indorse
the candidacy of Secretary of War

suited and those who favored Secre-
tary Taft elected w. A. Collins and
Thomas ]. Key as delegates, Those
who had opposed resolutions indors-
ing Secretary Taft named F. w. RAN

CHIEF OF CAVALRY.
Army Staff College Men Want New
Official.

Washington, April 27.-A strong
recommendation for the appointment
of an officer to be known as chief
of cavalry" has been made by COM
mission of cavalry officers attached tc
the army stan college. 1t is argued
that the chief should be member of
the general staff and head of the
committee considering questions re-
lating to the cavalry. having power
to inspect that branch of the service
for the purpose of ascertaining and
of determining where the standards
of efficiency recommended may be
The committee says
that nearly every civilized nation has
a cavalry official with powers and
duties similar to those outlined above
and expressed the belief that the
practice OF those nations Is ample
warrant for the establishment of a.
similar Office In the American army.

Wild Ducks Dying.

Sandusky, o.. April 27.--Again as
for several seasons past wild ducks
are dying by the hundred daily in
the marshy regions bordering on
Lake Erie, between Huron, ten miles
east of this city, and the mouth OF
the Maumee river near Toledo. Blue
bills, canvas backs and occasionally
red head are attacked alike.
Examination reveals the presence in
the head feathers of the dead duck
found of a small insect not unlike
a flea. but whether or not this is re-
sponsible for the wholesale destruc-
tion that is going on cannot be de-
termined.

Education at China.

San Francisco, April 27.-The
most significant feature in the awak-
ening of China and what promises
to be the most potent factor in rails
ing the empire to the level of great
western nations is found In the
earnestness with which the govern
ment is pursuing its policy of gen.
eral education" said Z. T. Williams,
newly appointed consul general to
Tien Tsin, who arrived here last
night. The laws of the land are
being modernized to abolish extra
territorial jurisdiction. A general
-eodification of the laws making
them to harmonize more with the
international laws of the Occidental
nations is being rapidly pressed by
special commission lawyers are
being admitted to practice. Trial by
jury is being introduced and schools
of law are being established. The
only system of combining judicial
and administrative functions in one
person is being abolished. Mr. Will
liams. who has been in the Orient
for 81 years. is on his way to take
over his post, having been appoint
ed on March 4.

AN INJUNCTION
John Henderson Jr Wants Clark
Street Improvements Stopped
Before Going Any Further
HAS TAKEN AN APPEAL

1t is not politics that is worrying
the members of the Brooklyn I'm
provement society at present but the
question whether John Henderson Jr,
is to get out an injunction prevent
ing the city from continuing the ex-
tension of Clark street. Mr. Hender-
son took an appeal from the assess
ment of benefits and damages and as
he has been consulting his counsel
recently it is feared that he may soon
take some action as his house will
soon be moved unless he does.
A special meeting Of the Brooklyn
society has been called for this even
ing for the purpose of making ar
rangements for the receiving Of
Mayor Thoms who will address the
members in the lyceum on Friday
evening. Notice of the meeting to be
held this evening has been sent to all
members in the Lyceum on Friday
expected. Mr. Henderson has not at
tended meeting since the society was
reorganized but is expected to be
present this evening.
Andrew Broderick, the secretary,
has not resigned nor will he do SC
this evening, although he may in the
near future. But there is no particu
lar reason why he is getting out ex-
cept that he has not the time to at
tend to it. He wished to resign some
time ago but President Devine induc-
ed him to fill the Office for time
longer. AS for the society being di-
vided because of politics, it seems tc
be all poppy talk.
