' Worth Reading. To the Editor: I think it my duty to inform your readers of a remedy that should be in every household. I was a martyr to Dyspepsia and Constipation and tried everything in vain. In despair I bought a ten cent package of the : U. S. Army & Navy Tablets, 17 l East 14th St, New York, and in three days I felt better and afterwards I bought a twenty- , five cent package and now I am completely cured. Your druggist can and must get it for you. Yours truly, A READER. V'EW YORKNEW HAVEN .1: nAll’l H) 1 L “A ILR‘ 'AU -—NEw You DIVISION. DECEMBER 4, 1898. Trains leave South Norwdlk as follows.

The Cause of the Discord \Vas tho Questicn‘of Allowing the State Committee to Name Delegates to the\ _ \utionul Convention. BOSTON, Scpt.22.—The riotous scenes and the bitter fights between the two fac- ‘ tions of the Democratic party of this state which characterized and made fa- mous the all night session in Music hall here in 1896 and that at W'orcester the following year was renewed with even greater bitterness at the annual conven- tion of the state Democracy in Mechan- ics’ hall yester.1,d moment after the speeches of the tempo- rary and peimanent presiding officers were concluded when there was quiet and harmony in any degree. 'At times the entire delegation was upon its feet, the membexs standing on chahs or tables, shouting in the heat of passion some dc- nunciatory remarks at the chairman or the pe1son who was endc av wing to speak upon the platform. At times it seemed as though even the force of 100 policemen in the hall would be of no avail, so impassioned were those upon the floor, and the climax came when, at the request of the chairman, Hon. W. S. McNary, the captain of the police appeared upon the platform and placed his hand upon Congressman John E. Fitzgerald in readiness to forci- bly remove him from the platform had he not subsided and allowed the chairman to address and calm the excited assemblage. The cause of the tumult, which raged for nearly three hours, was the question before the body accepting the action of the state committee in presenting a list of delegates to the national convention of Democ1 ats next June. The final result of all the confusion and discord “as the overwhelming passage of every motion and report that was made by the state committee 01' that portion of the party organization which is guided by Mr. VVilliams—namcly, the adoption of BB K. 1.; y I Thcie w as haidly a . the platform as presented, the nomina- . tion of a state ticket and the election of national convention delegates headed by J.obert Treat Paine.

Boston; lieutenant governor, John H. Mack, North Adams; secretary of state, Harry Lloyd, Boston; general, John H. Morrison, Lowell; audi- tor, \V. L. Ramsdcll, Lynn; treasurer, Joseph J. Flynn, Lawrence. The platform favors direct legislation, the initiative and referendum; the elec- tion of United States senators by direct vote of the people and the enforcement of the eight hour work day: the abolition of the law granting a life tenure to mem- bers of the judiciary and the public own- ership and operation of street railways, attorney ' THE ANTI-IMPERIALISTS. «h Statement Issued Setting Forth: Their Plans and Aims. BOSTON, Sept. 22,—The Anti-Impe rialist league has issued the following: “Unauthorized statements having been N Q all \1' A Lit A ' made as to the objects of the anti- -impe- - 5 rialist conference in Chicago, Oct. 17, it should be said that there will be no at- ; tempt there at negotiation with any po- ' litical party. ' “It is hoped that this conference may plan for a systematic effort to establish : anti-imperialist leagues and committees throughout the country, with the inten- tion of developing and crystallizing the opposition to the president’s policy. “It is true that in doing this the anti- imperialists must denounce Mr. McKin- ley individually, because he unlawfully initiated the slaughter in the Philippines by his declaration of war, Dec. 21, 1898, at a time when the United States was solemnly bound to the protocol to pre— serve the status quo. “It simplifies our efforts that, because of this impregnable fact, neither the country nor any political party in it is re-' sponsible for \Ir. McKinley’ s war, or is in any way bound to support it. The anti- imperialists hope to arousetheir fel- low citizens to the gravity of the issue which has been forced upon the people, so that no candidate for the next presi- dency can expect success unless he disa- vows the colonial and imperial acts which have actuated M1'. McKinley and his per- nicious advisers.” BASEBALL SCORES. Results of Yesterday’s Games In the- Nutionul League.

The Australian ballot will be used, and the qualifications of a voter are that he must be a bona fide resident of the municipality, 21 years old, a tax- payer or else able to read or write, and a resident of the island for two years.

BRISTOL, R. 1., Sept. 22.-—-The sloop Columbia left for a sail down the bay yesterday, going out under mainsail, jib and club topsalls.

Y., and has begun to take up the threads of his work in connection with the arrangement of a modus vivendi relative to the Alaskan boundary. There has been no change in the status of this matter recently. At last accounts the British government had before it Secre- tary Hay’s last proposition on this sub- ject, and as it had received the approval of Mr. Tower, the British charge here, it was assumed that it would prove accept- able to the British foreign ofiice.

Conflict \Vould Be “an Insult to Re- ligion and Civilization.” BLOEMFONTEIN, Orange Free State, Sept. 22.—-—'1‘he volksraad met yes- terday, with a full attendance. President speech. After welcoming, the burghers he expressed regret that the relations be- tween Great Britain and the uitlanders had become strained. Members, he said, were aware of the meeting of Sir Alfred Milner and President Kruger at. Bloem- fontein, _when President Kruger made proposals in which, although refused by the British high commissioner, were unanimously considered throughout the Orange Free State to- be exceedingly fair. Proceeding to review the negotiations, President Steyn said the Transvaal had been decoyed by the British diplomatic agent at Pretoria, Mr. Conyngham Greene, and he practically accused the imperial government of a breach of faith. He said he was disinclined to advise the Transvaal government to accept the lat- est British demands. The present, critical state of affairs could not be a matter of indificrence to the Orange Free State, which was bound by' treaty to afford as- sistance to the Transvaal, and he had, therefore, convened the volksraad to de- cide what attitude should be taken. “There is nothing,” declared the presi- dent, “that warrants war or an attack upon the Transvaal. Such differences as exist can be solved by arbitration. War would be an insult to religion and civili- zation.” In conclusion President Steyn said he would take this opportunity of laying certain draft laws before the volksraad for consideration, praying God to give the members strength to pass resolutions not only conducive to peace and prosper- ity, but also in the interest of their be- loved state. Immediately a-fter the speech President Steyn asked the volksraad to go into se- cret session, which was agreed to unani- mously. A Cape Colonist’s Views. CAPE TOTVN, Sept. 22.—Sir John. Gordon Sprigg, leader of the opposition in the Cape house of assembly and for- mer premier and treasurer of Cape Colo— ny, in the course of an interview yester— day said: “I have no doubt that a portion of the population of the colony would be active- 1y anti-British in the event of a war with the Transvaal. I do not anticipate a ris— ing, but some of the young an impul- sive Africanders would probab y show their sympathies by joining the Boer forces. In. my judgment the proceedings at the meeting of Africander members of the Cape parliament were most injudi- cious. No mention was made of any sympathy with those who would suffer while fighting on the British side. It is impossible that those who are doing their best to uphold British authority should conceive anything in the nature of a re tirement from the position adopted by the imperial government. Any such weakness would be fatal to the future maintenance of British authority in South Africa.” Strength of the Burghers. LONDON, Sept. 22.—The London edi- tion of The Standard and Diggers’ News of Johannesburg gave out a cable dis: patch, purporting to be from Johannes- burg, saying that the returns from the field cornets of the Transvaal and Orange Free State show that 52,000 burghers are ready to take the field at short notice. Dakota. Invites the President. WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-—Senator McComber and Representative Spaulding of North Dakota called at the White House and invited the president to ex- tend his western trip to North Dakota at the time the returning volunteers reach the state, about the 3d or 5th of October.
