bic to say who viii be In the Lineup
when we begin the season.
Our pitching staff, I am sure, viii
be stronger. We will have Burleigh
Grimes from the start, whereas 4
year ago he didn't join us until mid
June. And what q pitcher he Isl
Hallahan ought to be q better
pitcher as he didn't get going until
long after the season had started.
Haines Is q star, no question about
that. Sylvester johnson, Al Grab
owskt, Flint Rhem remain Of the vet
Grams, while new members Of the
pitching staff are Paul Derringer
from Rochester, Dizzy Dean, Tony
Kaufman and Allyn Stout. all from
Houston.
I have seen enough Of Derringer
and Dean to believe that they will be
helpful additions to u staff. Der
ringer was the star Of the Interna-
tional League last season and is
about ready. This young Dean not
only has the necessary qualifications
but he believes he is a great pitcher
and I think he will prove It.
Bottomley Looks Good
Jim Botton1ley had a poor year in
1880 and didn't look like himself In
the world series but what manager
wouldn't like to have Jim on his
club?
I look for Bottomley to have the
greatest season of his career. He was
bothered all year with a badly
bruised hand and many days was
playing when he should have been
out of the game. Many times I asked
him if he didn't want to take a rest
but he was so anxious to get going
himself and to help lis win that he
to take a vacation.
With Bottomley In perfect physical
condition I am sure you will see a
great performance from this fellow.
Rip Collins, the star first sacker
from Rochester. will be given a
chance to beat out Bottomley but
everything else being equal Bottom
ey's greater experience would make !
lin the more valuable man.

.Meriden Gets
 Reduced Rates
Lighting Company Grants Silver City 5000 Cut

The reduction in street lighting rates affecting the city of Meriden and announced yesterday as being beneficial to other cities of the state, Is not entirely news to Wa terbury. The announcement stated that following conference be- tween Mayor Francis T. Maloney of Meriden and officials of the Con- necticut Light and Power Company a reduction of $3,000 in street light ing rates would result.
 As a matter of fact a similar conference was held in Waterbury six months ago between Mayor Frank Hayes. Executive Secretary Thomas P. Kelley. Charles J. AL len, manager of the Waterbury of- flee and other officials of the Con- necticut Light and Power Company from Hartford. As a result of that conference, Waterbury's street lighting rates were reduced, so that the city would save $4.100. effec- tive January 1, 1881, and $S,200 per year each year thereafter. In agreement Waterbury is saving $4,100 this year in street lighting rates and beginning January l, 1892, the city will save twice that amount, or $8.200 each year fol- lowing until the present contract expires.
 The Meriden mayor. the an- nouncement states, was successful in securing the lowering in the line. or circuit. charge in the street lighting contract which will save the Silver City $3,000 after investi- gations and conferences lasting over a year.
 The announcement also said that Mayor Maloney is being given credit for substantial saving to his own city and several other cit les of the state as a result of his
 negotiations.
 Many hope that this marks the beginning of a substantial reduc- tion in three things that enter largely into the cost of living in the home, coal, gas and electricity, Thousands are managing to use these commodities, but find it well nigh impossible to pay the price and meet other pressing demands This was so even when times were good and it> is easy to see how much more difficult it Is under ex- isting conditions unless the prices of gas, electricity and coal take drop it will be true. if it is not so already that all of these things will be practically out of reach of or dinary working people. Of course after all there is no coercion. II folks do not like the price they are at liberty to dispense with the service. This condition always ob- tains in anything people need when there is no competition.

INTRODUCES NEW IDEA

 Governor Cross confirmed the fact he had been asked to summon special session for action on those matters but declined to name the persons who made the suggestions Democratic National Committee. man Archibald McNeil of Bridge port mentioned that a special ses- sion on unemployment relief might be called during an address at East Haven several weeks ago The governor indicated he saw no reason for summoning a special session right away.
