Noting the approach of the foot-

commenting on the methods of the

it Great Britain says that blind
stark madness has had the reins of
int management in too many clubs
recently '.[he accusation is based
0n the fact that the professionals
have been receiving immense
sums for their services. Players
‘who have been accustomed to
mining coal at colliers‘ prices. or
to draw the wages of unskilled la-

“ ambassadors, for playing football.
Not content with this. clubs have
put a premium upon indiflerenLc
to ordinary games by offering
huge bonuses for \iLtory in L'er—

The football association has now
stepped in and put a limit upon
clubs expenditures [hat is to
say, it has declared it illegal for
more than $1,040 a year to be paid
to a man and has forbidden the
payment of bonuses.

1,
On September 13, 1893. the good
sloop luoz, twelve tons burden, hailing
from Norwalk. was as staunch a little-
craft as one. would wish to see, but the.
day of the month hoodoued her. On
that day, acting on behalf of William
I“. Northrop and Geome ill. Northrop,
City Shcrll‘f Thomas Carey, Jr., of Nor-
wulk. placed an attachment of $50 on
the pretty boat and took her from the.
possession of her owners, Russell Jen
plugs and James E. Leigh. The costs
of attachment and various other items
made a total of $62. which. as every
one knows. is four times 13. That coni-
blnatlon. falling on September 13.
spoiled the deal. and caused a lawsuit
which was tried in Bridgeport yester-
day
Sheriff Carey took the. craft from her
moorings in NorwaIIL haI box and sail-
ed her out toward the mouth of the
Norwalk river. The Norwalk river is
something after the plan of the Pe-
qnonuock river up toward the 891k-
shire mill says the Bridgepoit Stan-
ard. it this a pronounced channel and
some largo mud tints whth are un-
covcrcd at. low tide. Sheriff Carey
sailed the sloop up to the mouth of the
river and anchored her there. Being
a sheriff and not a sailormun, it is
presumed that the sheriii' neglected
those several little. cares which would
havu insured the. nafcry‘of the craft.
but which, neglected. resulted in her
loss. Plenty of anchor rope was left
overboard, but unfortunately that was
not all that was required.
Because the sloop was placed under
attachment and was removed from the
custody of her owners in good condi-
tion and was turned over them three
weeks later a bulk, practically in need
of rebuilding. the owners have institut-
ed suit to recover damages of $400.
The' case was taken up in the. civil
court of common pleas, before Judge
Howard J. Cuhtla. The ease. for the
plaintiffs was conducted by Attorney
John C. Chamberlain while the Inter
cuts of the defendants were. looked af-
ter by Attorney Daniel Davenport and
Elmore S. Banks.
Russell Jennings. one of the owners.
went on the witness stand this morn-
ing. and told of the condition III which
he had found the. bout when it was
turned Over to him October 0. lie
and that the sloop had been anchored
on the edge' of the channel in such a
way that'when the tide went out it left
her lying half on the edge of the (than
not and half on the mud flat. The
boom had not been fastened, and when
the boat listed it swung over the chan»
nel. The. result of the additional
weight on the. low side was to keep
the boat listed. so that when the tide
rose the boat remained in her positiop
and filled with water.
Mr. Jennings said that the washing
of the waves had severely strained the
boat, had pushed the caulking out of
many of- her scams, had battered up
her batches and floated them away

spoiled some mattresses and two sets
of side lights had ruined the topsall

other damage that the boat was prac~
tlcully a bulk. She had to be almost
entirely rebuilt. he said. and all the
damage was 00th becauiie the elbow

James E Leigh, Lutuer Mills. Hor-
hart Banks and others familiar with

The trial will probably not be finish
