to the seizure of the vessel and the

Nevertheless, in view of the oiilclal

that the Malacca was carrying ert-

ment, acting in agreement with the
British government, decided that a

This visit occurred at Algiers. The
British consul-general otliclally certi-

continued to be the property of the
British government, and the rest of
her cargo was not contraband of war.
Taking this attestation into considera-

to liberate the cargo and vessel. This
decision must not, however, be inter-

UNION SUNDAY SCHOOL PICNIC.
(Danbury News.)
It Is not known as to whether the
committee for the union Sunday school

Williams during his recent visit In
iiclhel, in regard to the kind of weath-
er they would like for their control pic-
nic, but one thing is certain, it more
perfect day for u picnic was never
seen. livery one seemed to enjoy the
best kind of a time, and there was
no accident or delay to roar the plea-
sure of the occasion.
The train which left licthel at 8 a.
m.. Saturday morning. was made up oi"
eight well loaded cars, the majority of
the crowd being, of course, from licth-
cl. but there were. a goodly number of
llunbury people in the party.
The plcnlckcrs reached South Nor~
wulk and found the trolley cars awnio
ing them near the station, and these
soon landed them safely at Rotou
Point, where. after depositing their
well-filled baskets and boxes, they sep-
arated, some going bulking, others
boating, and muny found souls on the
sand pour the water, or strolled along
the writer edge. picking up the shells
that the waves hud washed up.
The salt uir nindc. one hungry long

net's were in order. There Were muuy
ro-unlons with friends residing in the
Norwulks, Stamford and Bridgeport,
thcy coming by trolley to splsurl the
day with their friends from llcthel.
'ihe ball game which was pluycd in
the alter-,rloou uttrrnlted sonic of the
party, but us there was a delay in
slotting the game those, who came
home on the excursion train were
obliged to loan: before the game was
finished. The special trolleys Ieft_lto-
ton at 4:30, and the run to South Nor-
wulk was quickly made, where the
truiu was In waiting to convey them
home. There. was none of the tedious
waiting on switches which sometimes
occurs at such times, and the train
came through without a single stop
until Bethe] was reached. ‘
It was a sonburncd, somewhat tired
but happy party that reached home on
the special train, lifter the pleasant
day's outing smile unit water. There
are several diversions at Roton that
you can pass the day in. the place
where you can try your luck at rtng~
lug caries, and if you feel strong you
can make an effort to knock the stilli-
ing out of screw] rowa of grinning tig—
urcs. or dolls, by throwing bulls at
them. Then there are the various re—
freshment stands, which were well
patronized, especially where lolly pops
were sold. The supply gave out early
in the day, as the demand for the
popular confection far exceeded the
supply on hand. The bathing, boating
and many other enjoslzble features of
the seashore, all helped to make the
day one full of pleasure for the excur-
sionists. The Bethe] party was not
alone on the grounds, for the Five Mile
River Methodists also held a picnic
there. These Five Mile Riverites are
good livers, for they came loaded down
with big boxes and bundles, as if they
meant to stay a week in camp, They
unpacked estables of every description
in large quantities, and evidently were
enjoying themselves in the best of
manner
, The committee from the three Sun-
day schools. who had the matter in/,
charge are Certainly deserving of much
credit for so successfully carrying out
‘all arrangements, and doing every-
thing possible to make the day so en-
joyable. There were nearly six bun
tired tickets sold, and the proceeds ”will
be enough to pay all expenses.

FOOD SUPPLY DISTRIBUTION.
Serious Question Which Confronts
Managers of Packing House.
CHICAGO, August 2.~One of the
serious questions which confronts the
where of the packing house strike
is the separation of the worthy from
the unworthy in the distribution of
food supplies. It is claimed that most
of the supplies so for given out have
been sec ulyed by persons who have
money In their own support. while
many families in actual wont have
been unable to secure anything. Fa-
voritisru In the distributions has also
been charged.
Lack of food and proper nourish-
ment among the poorer classes com-
pelled to leave their work on account
of the strike. has caused much illness,
rind at the dispensary of the Universi-
ty of Chicago Settlement it is reported
that 100 cases, mostly children, had
been treated within the last four days.
Diniculty was experienced today by
the. packers' employment agents In

In one case twelve Grecnks who came
from Milwaukee, were captured while
enrouio through Chicago by a crowd
of strike pickets. Tho Greenks were
taken to Union headquarters and dis-
suaded from working. The packers
had better success with a special train
bearing 145 men and women. chiefly
ncgroes and Italians. These were
switched directly into the stock yards
and unloaded at the doors of the vari’
ous packing houses. A short time pre-
vious 100 hands quit or were discharg-
