WEATHER FORECAST.
‘ For Norwalk and vicinity: Cloudy
tonight; Wednesday rain. The trough
~of low pressure on the Gulf coast yes-
terday morning has developed into a
'well defined storm area that is now
Central in Alabama. its progress north-
ward,has hen rethrded by the area of
high pressure over the Lake region
and New England. it is producing rain
. as far north as Richmond, Va., and
cloudy weather along the coast to
Nantucket. This vicinity will be on
the northern edge of this storm area
during the next 36 hours, but the high
pressure may force it out to sea at
Hatteras, in which case we would not
get any rain from it~

CANDIDATES FOR TAX COLLEC-
TOR.
Several New Names Mentioned for
That and Other Offices.
Candidates for town offices are rnp-
idly coming forward. William M.
Bolts, of Norwalk, is now announced
as being desirous of the Republican
nomination for town tax collector.
From the present outlook, there will
be some lively scrambling for this of-
iice between the present time and the
caucus.
Thus far nothing has been heard
The present collector, Sidney Guthrie.
was nominated by the Republicans and
endorsed by the Democrats. Whether
they would do so again will of course
depend entirely on who the Republi-
cans name, No prominent Democrat
has as yet asked for the nomination.
Selectman .lohu Dcvlne appears to
have a clear field for the nomination
from the first and third districts lo suc-
ceed himself. First Selectman Alfl‘cd

LICENSE QUESTION UP.
More lnt'orest to Be Taken in Town
Election Than in Several Years.
More enthusiasm than in years is
being shown by Prohibition advocates
in The Norwalks, and yesterday at-
ternoon it was stated that the Prohi-
bition party will have the license
cal election.
This will be the first time that the
license question has veen voted on in
Tlie_‘Norwalks in six years, and the
result will be awaited with interest.
The last time the vote was taken on
the subject, license won out, but it
was by no big majority. in fact, South
Norwalk gave but six more votes for
license than for no license. in Nor-
walk, however, the proportion in fa-
vor of license was considerably larger.
There are some people who believe
that no license will win out if voted
on this fall, but the majority are prolr
ably inclined to think otherwise. At
any event the question will cause cou-
sldernble uneasiness.
GERMAN MANUFACTURER HERE.
Gehard Hohn,'brother of Dietrich
Hohn. Of Centre avenue, Norwalk, ar-

at that place in the manufacture of

tory has the capacity of 300 dozen
pairs of those useful articles each day.
He is visiting his brother In Centre
avenue for a short line, and his trip to

of getting some patents on his suspen-
ders and garters on this side of the

ILLEGAL LIQUOR SALE.
Middletown Italian; Battle With the

MIDDLETOWN, Conn. August 25.—
Formally charged with the illegal sale
ofp liquor. Pietro Maloni, Alexander
Augustinl. N. Puccl. Douato ilonipo,
Edward Myers, employee at the Louis
Languay place. John Swan, Luther An-
derson. the latter proprietor of a hotel,
and Felix Micoue. were arraigned in
court yesterday morning and after en-
tering pleas of not guilty were held in
$100 bonds each for hearing yesterday
afternoon. The arrests resulted from a
raid by state police Sunday in which
a number of places were entered, it
being alleged by the officers that liquor
it was while the officers were at. the
Maloni place, which is surrounded by
tenements housing five hundred or
more ltallaus that. the occupants of
the tenements and the ofiicers had a
clash. in which the former hurled bot-
tles, stones ennd other missiles at the
‘pollcemen and then when one. of the
officers had drawn a revolver and fired
into the crowd, charged the officers
with drawn knives and made things
look' serious for them until the local
police came to their aid.
One of the day's developments was
the swearing out by Gaetano Gnrofola.
of a warrant for the arrest of State Po-
liceman Loukes, charging him with
assault in connection with Sunday
night's raid. Gnrofola alleges he was
shot in the abdomen by the state po-
liceman. inukes also had Gnrofola
arrested, and the cases will come up in
court today, when it'ls said a more
serious charge may be preferred
against Garafola.
Both were ordered from the court
room yesterday during the hearing on
the liquor cases.

Mr. and Mrs. Harry Nichols, of Fair-
fleltpassed Sunday with Mr. and Mrs.
W. .chkson.
It is rumored that several of the
state police force were in town Sunday
looking for violations of the excise
laws. No warrants have. been asked
for as yet and no arrests made. The
officers are also looking up those beer
peddlcrs who have no license to sell
but who disposed of a. wagon load of
beer every Sunday. It Is plain that
it is not fair to the local saloon keep-
ers who pay a license and obey the
law to allow these outsiders to invade
the territory.
*—
Vigilant Engine Company has start-
ed the innd for a steamer and there
the matter ended until last week when
a movement was! put on foot which
proposes the giving of a fair by the
whole department. The Southport
department, has a steamer for sale
cheap and it has been suggested that
a committee be appointed to visit
Southport and examine the steamer.
Some of the department believe that
the steamer is too small for use here
and that a more modern affair should
be purchased. Others claim that it is
just the thing for use in this town.
The matter has not been discussed by
the department and the action will
probably depend upon the amount of
money which can be raised.
The action of the special committee
corflerning the awarding of the con-
tract for the new town ball will do
pend largely upon the action of the
special town meeting which will be
held tomorrow evening at Toquet Hall.
if the voters believe that it is for the
best interest of the town to vote an
additional 31.000 "for the building, the
present plans will be carried out.
Those who are in any way interested
should turn out at the meeting and
make their wishes known. There is
n strong element in the town which
was opposed to the building of the
hail and these will probably work
tion, believing that the $16,000 already
appropriated is all, and even more
than the town can stand at present.
The place to make the kick is at the
town meeting and not on the street
corners.
