The eighth annual convention of the
Connecticut Letter carriers Associa-
ticp was held eaturday afternoon in
Red Men' 5 Hall in Washington street.
Trains from ali directions that worn
to .bring‘ the different delegates from
throughout the state were late owing
to the storm, and the meeting was not
opened until nearly 4 o‘clock although
It had been scheduled for 2. Owing to
the lateness of the hour the business
was rushed through as there was to
be a banquet at the new and handsome
Hotel Clifford. The hour for this was
selleduled for 6: 36 o‘,clock but it was
7. :mibofore adjournment was made.
delay in the proceedings was
brdught about by John McEIroy of
Bridgeport who asked to havo Con
mama E. J Hill brought to the ball
so that he could explain something
i. the new law that has gone into
effect relative to rural free delivery
and postal clerks etc. It was not
thought best by others to have the.
congressmen present as he was In-
vited to speak at the banquet and not
attend the convention. It was finally
decided. however, that the congress
also should be requested to appeal
and uncover some questions. Messrs.
Clark. Saunders and Mcmlroy were
named as committee of three to wait
upon Mr II, and in ten minutes they
escorted him to the hall- amld loud
cheers. Mr Hill Walked to the elevat
ed platform and was introduced by

VICTOR, Col. February 2Hripple
Creek is in a state of terror owing to
a preconcerted attack upon all the
leading assay offices (icing business
in the district. Beginning at 3 o'clock
this morning and following in rapid
succession six explosions wrecked as
many assay oilices in the centers rang-
ing from Victor to Cripple Creek and
up to Goidfleld. in every instance the
object sought by the incendiarles was
accomplished by the destruction of the
omces with their equipment of deli
cute balances.
The raiders did not hesitate to jeep.
utilize life as all but one of the build-
ings were also occupied by sleeping
families. As it was men, women and
children ware hurled out of their beds
by the shocks ‘and serious injuries in
ilicted. The files extent of the damage
cannot be estimated.
III this city the Davenport ofllce was
wrecked by two explosions. involving
a loss of fully #1200. Almost at the
same time the assay olllces of Vauder
walker, Morgan and Williams were
treated likewise. The loss was approx
lmatcly as large as Davenports one
man, miner, was severely injured in
the explosion at Williams office. in
Cripple Creek Benjamin's assay ofilce
north of the rloience and Cripple
Creek depot was blown up,
in the town of Goldfield. about a
mile and a half north. almost simul-
taneously Boyce's allies and another
assay establishment were wrecked.
Royce‘s family occupied an adjoining
l‘.oon) Mrs -.oyce was blown out of
bed, but escaped without fatal injur-
ln this city the powder was placed
under the building. Sheriff Robertsou
is taking all means to discover if pos-
siblc the perpetrator of the crimes.
The general impression here, this
morning is that the acts are the result
of a general movement to rid the dis-
trict of all highgrade are purchasing

the president's delegates and the rail-
way olliclals for the arrangements
made for his transportation. He ex-

ranged that he should do so somewheré
