Business Brlsk on the Consolidated.

Heavy freight trains .in rapid suc-
cession pass through South Nor-walk
day and night now, and the Consoli-
dated road is using all its resources in
the handling of the immense volume of
freight. Officials say that they have
never known a time when freight
moved in such enormous quantities
and in many places on the line cars in
sufficient numbers cannot be secured
to transport the merchandise. A short
time ago an order was placed for 5.000
30-ton cars, and it, looks as if double
that number could be used.

Janitor WilliamPhilIips Found
Dead in His Bed.

PROBABLY DIFD TUESDAY.

He Was Last Seen About His Room on That
Day.

William Phillips. the colored janitor
at the East Norwalk school, is dead.

on the Washington street bridge about
6:30 o’clock Wednesday night by J. T.
Morrell and John Cole.

Phillips was well known about town,
and for many years acted as janitor of
the East Norwalk school building.
He had not, however, been employed
there for some time‘owing to ill health.

He occupied a room in the rear of
the vacant store on the east end of the
Washington street bridge, and it was
here that his dead body was found.

J. T. Moarell was a friend of Phil-
lips’ and was in the habit of visiting
himevery night to see how he was get-
ting along,the deceased having been ill
for about three weeks. '

Last night about 6:30 o’clOck Mor-
rell made his usual call but was un-

: a reply to his repeated knocking ‘ he
. summoned John Cole and together
: they went to the rear of the building
and looked through the window and
saw Phillips lying in bed.

They notified the neighbors and an
entrance was made into the room and
the discovery made that he was dead.

Medical Examiner Huntington was
summoned and gave it as his opinion
that Phillips had died some time dur-
ing Tuesday night, as the last that was
‘ seen or heard of him was on Tuesday
when Mrs. Sweeney, who lives upstairs,
saw and heard him in his room. Mrs.
Sweeney did not see or hear anything
of him after that and Dr. Huntington
is of the opinion that he died that

night.

was fractured and he was terribly
bruised The horses were captured by

pened to be coming along, He carried
Mr. Keeler home and secured assist-

The latest thing out, i-nelegant
though perhaps enjoyable, is eating
hot sweet corn while riding on the
trolley. Acasewas noted on a red
line trolley car last night when three
people were apparently enjoying
several ears of the vegetable and the
sweet odor was redolent through the
car.

lleatness cannot be cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the car.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
enfiamed you havea rumbling sound

‘

entirely closed. deafness is the result.
and unless the inflammation‘ can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing wrll'be dc-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Cararrh, which is notha
ing bur. an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness, (caused by
catarrb) that cannot be cured by Hall’s

LINE OF BATTLE mi runs Lon;

Our Casualties Reported at Eight
Killed and Twenty-nix \Vounded.
Rebels Protected by Trenches.
Had Plenty of Ammunition.

MANILA, Aug. 10.—The American
loss in the fighting about San Fernando
yesterday is known to be at least 8 me
killed and 26 wounded. '

The loss may possibly exceed these fig-
ures, as the line is five miles long and it
is impossible at this hour to hear from
every point.

vOur troops are now about Angeles,
waiting for the artillery, which has the
greatest difficulty in moving owing to the
wet ground.

The attack was opened at -5 o’clock in
the morning, a battery of the First artil‘
lery shelling Bacolor, on the left. . Simul-
taneously Bell‘s Thirty-sixth infantry
struck Bacolor from the rear and drove
the rebels out. Armored cars, each with
a 6 pounder and two Gatling revolving
cannon on board, then moved out on the
railroad track in the center of our lines.
Soon afterward these guns did sharp exe‘
cution.

Battery M of the Third artillery and
100 men of the Iowa regiment made a
feint to‘ward Mexico. while the main
body of- troops, consisting of the Iowa
regiment, the Seventeenth regiment and
a battalion of the TWenty-second, under
General Wheaton, on the right, and the
Ninth regiment, Twelfth regiment and
Bell‘s regiment, under General Liscum,
on the left, advanced steadily, pouring
their fire into the rebels and receiving a
heavy fire in return.

The rebels were well protected by
trenches and seemed not to lack ammuni‘
tion, but they were unable to withstand
for any length of time the hail of shot
our artillery and infantry poured in on
them and retreated, leaving many dead
and wounded on the field. A dozen pris-
oners were captured by our troops.

The reports indicate that the Ninth in-
fantry suffered the most, though the cus-
ualties of all the regiments are not yet
reported.

The weather was extremely hot, and
our troops suffered greatly, but there
Was no faltering.

According to reports, Bell, out of a to-
tal of 192, has had 26 wounded sent in,
and the insurgents are harassing him in
the rear.

The firing, except at isolated points,
had ceased by 10 o’clock.

The Filipinos were surprised, expecting
the American forces to move against
Tico. They followed their usual tactics
of holding their trenches until they be-
came too warm and then retreating in
disorder. They are now falling back
westward toward Porio.

The Twelfth and Seventeenth regi-
ments had the sharpest engagements.

The country our troops passed over is
covered with . rice fields and bamboo
thickets, the hardest possible ground for
marching. The mud in places was knee
deep.

Angeles is one of the richest towns
north of Manila and is considered to be
a better base of Operations than San Fer-
nando. ‘

The forces at San Fernando consisted
of the Iowa regiment, the Seventeenth
regiment, the Ninth regiment, the
Twelfth regiment, Bell’s new Thirty‘
sixth regiment, a battalion of the Six-
teenth regiment, Troop E of the Fourth
cavalry and 15 guns. ’

The movement had been planned for
some time, but was delayed by rains.
Finally two days of sunshine dried the
rice fields sufficiently to warrant the at-
tempt.

Washington Plans to Receive Dewey

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.—“Gentle-
men, burn plenty of red fire.” That was
President McKinley’s emphatic admon-
ishment to the representatives of the citi-
zens of the District when they called to
consult with him regarding the arrange-
ments for the reception to Admiral Dew-
ey upon his arrival in Washington. When
the chief. executive of the nation views
the city on the night of Dewey day, he
will'find beyond doubt that his injunction
has been carried out most faithfully.
That will be a night, indeed, at once re-
markable and memorable, and already
active intellects are considering the vari—
oushfeatures that will combine to make it

Justice James Dead.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10. —Judge
Charles P. James, associate justice of the.
supreme court of the District of Columbia,
retired, died yesterday at the VVallach
homestead, near Leesburg, Va. He was
more than 80 years of age. Justice James
was a native of Ohio and was appointed
to the local bench by President Hayes in
1879, having, however, been a resident of
this city for a number of years previous-
ly. He was at one time a member of a
commission engaged in the revision of
the laws and also practiced law here. He
retired in December, 1892.

 

Recruits For Manila.

NE‘V YORK, Aug. Ill—Major George
F. Elliott arrived from \Vashington yes-
terday and reported to Rear Admiral
.Philip, commandant of the Brooklyn
navy yard, to take charge of the but-
talion of marines for Manila. He was
sent to the marine barracks, where he
immediately began organizing the bat-
talion into companies and assigning the
men to their respectivewplaces. Four
companies were formed, which will be
known as A, B, C and D.

More Smallpox.

ALBANY, Aug. 10.—Cases of smallpox,"

coptinueto crop out in various parts of
the state. The state board of health re‘
ports three additional cases at Niagara
Falls and directly traces the outbreak
there to a case which the doctors claimed
to be chicken pox, but which is in reality
it case of smallpox. ' The usual precau-
tionary measures have been taken.
