their precious Sovereignty" We read
Of one early international conference
which had to be held in a circular hall
with separate door for each Ambassa-
dor, so that all might enter
simultaneously Thus the equality of
their sovereigns was not to be i'm
pugned, nor their equanimity upset.
The coming of democracy was bound
to work some changes in system
which in its inception was part and
parcel of the monarchical regime Yet
the changes came slowly. Even AM

tendency to recruit them from the
ranks Of the aristocracy persisted and
those who came from lesser station
were quick to simulate the manners Of
nobility.
Still more noticeable was the am
baSsadorial preoccupation with affairs
of state, high politics and all the cere-
monial and formality that we're deemed
necessary to clothe their activities with
the proper dignity. Trade, commerce,
economics. finance were beneath their

Tax Rate to Be Reduced

 will be a fraction over 3s mills This years levy is 35 mills. Mayor Hayes and his aides have cut the 1882 proposed budget to the bone including the 10 per cent reduction in pay for city employees, in an ef- fort to make this drop in the mill age possible.
 The meeting of the finance board tomorrow is expected to throw a more definite light on what the 1882 tax rate will actually be. However, a drop is assured but the question being asked is how much the decrease will be. To- days report that the figures so far may make the 1892 levy a fraction report that the figures so far may make possible a 1892 levy of a fraction over 33 mills was hailed with satisfaction on all sides,
 ter, the budget must be submitted to the aldermen at their first reg ular meeting in December. Of course, the aldermen will meet to- night to readvertise $1,090,000 worth of municipal bonds for sale but this is an adjourned session. The first regular meeting will not take place until next Monday evening. Between now and that time, therefore, the mayor, con- troller and Executive Secretary Thomas P. Kelly will be kept busy modelling the final budget report for presentation to the aldermen.

 If the progressives refuse to vote for Moses and the republican reg ulars refuse to put up another can dldate, there may be no election at gil. and Moses will continue in or flee, The progressives will have the moral satisfaction of not voting for him.
 .Informal discussions among pro- Gressive senators have centered so fiY around farm relief, taxation end international debts. There Eaems to be general agreement on i1areased income taxes, inheritance and gift taxes and against sales ta4. There is much progressive ssfitiment against continuing Pres idant Hoover's debt moratorium .,l against scaling debts down to a ,eapacfty- to- pay basis.
 Both the equalization fee and eybort debenture farm relief pro- jccts have support among progress s.xes but the issue divides them. Senator Borah, republican, Idaho, for instance, believes the equaliza- tion fee would be unconstitutional in any form in which 1t has been presented.
 Among the issues upon which tao progressive republican group ig expected to be in accord is cur ta.lment of use of the injunction in labor disputes. William Green, p..csiGent of the American Fedora ton of Labor. conferred late yes terday with Senator Norris, repub- lican, Nebraska, on that subject. Norris will introduce bill to curb the present use of the injunction.

MUCH INTEREST | IN $l5,OOO ACTION
Difference Over z5 Gents Basis of Costly Litiga-
 ton in Superior Court
MAY GO TO JURY TO-DAY

A different version of the incid- ents is alleged to have taken place inside. the defendant company's office when the plaintiff signed q confession admitting guilt to the theft of a twenty-five cents was offered in superior court today by Raymond Decker of Summerville, Mass, as trial of the $15,000 false arrest case Julia Carpinella against the +. & w. Grand stores was re- sumed before Judge John Richards Booth and jury.
 Decker denied he used threats of arrest, in order to cause Miss CarpineIla to sign the confession. He said she told him she had a sore throat and took the quarter to buy bottle of Listerine. Miss Carpine1la yesterday told the court and jury she signed the confession in desperation after being held a prisoner in the office for three hours by Decker, an agent of the Willmark Service, Inc, of Boston.
 He said he came to Waterbury last January with Miss Teresa Me- Master and Miss Marie James, two operatives. Their work was to come into various stores, purchase articles and watch for any sus- picious actions on the part of the salesgirls. He told of the incident already described in which the plaintiff after selling 45 cents worth of merchandise only rang up 20 cents, in order to balance a pre- vious registering of 50 cents,
 The case is expected to go to the jury for deliberation this after noon. Attorney Herman J. and Marcus H. Weisman appear for the plaintiff and Attorney Terence F. and his son. Attorney Edward F. Carmody represent the defendant.

New York, Dec 2.-With the democratic house, a coalition-con- trolled senate and republican president, congress will convene on December 2 faced by an appalling list of subjects calling for action, l the Business Week points out in a summary of national questions pub lished in it's current issue. The loosest organization in this gener- ation will run the two houses, &C., cording to the summary, and in diyidual fears and ambitions threaten to wreck any proposed team work.
 President Hoover hopes to bring some scmblance of. order out of chaos by an appeal to sink party and personal differences during the emergency. the business jour nal states, but responsibility Is scattered in almost as many direc- tions as there are members of congress. Politics will be domin- ant. The session will be at it's heights when presidential candi- dates battle in primaries and state conventions this spring. Eyes of most of the 435 members of the anu dI ACaob ON oSh~sSAO "AAA be fastened firmly on their person al prospects of being renominated and reelected.
 The Big Questions "In this politically-surchanged atmosphere, with majority in both houses united only in their opposition to the president, for the progressives in the senate for the most part are more strongly against MT Hoover than are the democrats" says the Business Week, Congress confronts an ap- palling list of subjects calling for action.
 "The big questions are:
 Taxation, or bond issues or
 both. Due to treasury deficit.
 Relief measures. Due to de-
 precision.
 "Public works. To help the
 employment situation.

Customs inspectors, tipped that the Star was to land liquor at Horseneck Beach, asked coast guards early today to send a pa- trol boat there.
 The SIS, under Chief Boatswain's g Mate Cecil Mcleod, was assigned. As she neared the beach the Star, cruising slowly through shallow water, darted for the open sea.
 Coast guards fired 50 rounds from a machine-gun across the Stars bow but she ignored the warning signal. As the SIS began chase, the Star circled swiftly and attempted to ram her, according to Mcleod. He said the patrol boat escaped destruction only by ab- ruptly backing water.
 Again the Star headed for open water. The SIS sent 50 rounds of machine-gun fire sizzling into her engine room. A gasoline tank was

munistic demonstration during the hearing yesterday 21 men and four women were scheduled to appear in court on charges ranging from assault to disturbing the peace and melting q riot.
 Fifteen were arrested when they attempted to get into the hearing. Four were arrested when they at tempted to free the 15. Finally six others were taken when mounted police were forced to ride into the crowd to stop disorder.
 Although some 5000 crowded around the supreme court building only about 400 took part in the demonstration, police said.
 Speakers for the demonstrators said they regarded Mayor Walker as an interloper and accused him of attempting ito steal Mooney from the workers"
 As the mayor was pleading with the governor to grant Mooney a pardon, scattered groups outside were yelling:
 Free Tom Mooney. Down with Walker"
 Three policemen received minor injuries when they rode into the crowd to disperse the demontsrat- ors.
 Mayor Walker had promised a thew angle" at the hearing and he offered a letter from Charles M. Fickert, district attorney at the time Mooney was found guilty.
 This letter said you probably are right In maintaining that 1t would be to the best interests of the state that executive clemency be granted to Mooney"
 Fickert, who always has main tained that Mooney had a fair and impartial trial and was rightfully convicted, said to-day his letter did not have any reference "to the guilt or innocence of Mooney" He said he was out of public life now and did not wish to amplify this statement.
 A second letter introduced by Mayor Walker purported to. be from Mooney, himself. It said he wanted a complete and full pardon and that under no circumstances would he accept or apply for a parole.
 Warden James Holohan of San Quentin, where Mooney has been held, said this morning that no letter went out of the prison from Mooney. He stated, however, that Mooney subscribed to the opinions expressed and had authorized the writing of the letter. The mayors earnest plea held the courts attention.
 His major point was that Frank Oxman and John Mcdonald, wit. nesses who had placed Mooney at the scene of the bombing, had been shown to be perjurers. lie said Mcdonald had admitted that his evidence was false while the distinguished governor of your state (former Governor c. C. Young) wrote officially and indel. ibly into the record of California that the testimony of oxman wal unworthy"
 "Without oxman and Mcdonald there could have been no convic. ton of Mooney" Walker said, ''and they have been shown to be liars. " The mayor told how the 10 living men who were on the convlctInp jury thought Mooney should Dc pard0ned and how the trial judge agreed with them.

However, at the most, residents of the Fairlawn Manor will not expect, 1t Is understood, to send tbeir children to the new school before the 1892 recess In June.
 The site bought by the city con- tains several springs. In order to dry out the land, therefore, a drainage system was needed. This imposed upon the city the work of carrying a storm water sewer from the site along Frost road to the brook running through the land of the MattatucK Manufacturing company at the corner of Frost road and East Main street.
