Turning of the Tide. "

It is now freely asserted in New York
that the business situation is beginning
to show evidence of real and solid im-
provement for the first time in six
months. This is true in general trade,
and especailly in manufacturing, where
the list of mill resumptions continues to
grow larger.

Local trade,tco is showing'some signs
of improvement. There is not the same
disposition to restrict purchases to ab-
solutely necessary articles and in some
lines of retail trade ‘_business is com-
paratively brisk.

It is also" very encouraging to learn
that railway trafiic is looking up, and
that by careful economics the not re-
sults will be, from now on, likely to
compare very favorably with the re-
sults for the corresponding months a
year ago. One Southern line, the
Chesapeake & Ohio, is actually showing
an increase in its gross earnings in the
first weeks of January.

 

Hampton Roads Developing.

According to the Age of Steel there
is a great outlook for prosperity in the
shipping interests ofIHampton Roads
which will have a direct bearing on all
tributary territory.

With the many rivers which converge
at the Roads, internal transportation is
easy of access and cheap, while the
great trunk lines centering there offer
unusually favorable freight and pas-
senger rates fer the more remote places.

Then the establishment of th‘,e new
line of steamers between Newport News
and Liverpool is showing up very satis-
factorily and thus far has added largely
to the traffic of the Chesapeake and
Ohio Company, which owns it.

t is no wonder that with all these ad
vantages the opportunities of Hampton
Roads as a great seaport are becoming
more widely recognized than ever be-
fore. ‘

It is destined to be the great South-
ern seaport and also as great a shipping
point for Western and Southwestern
traffic as Baltimore is for the Northern
Central district.

The New Police.

The action of the City Council last
night in giving the City a new police
force with an old and experienced po-
lice ofiicial at its head, will meet the
general approval of our citizens. a

Wallace Dann has, during his term,
raised the position of chief of police
to a higher plane than ever before, and
has also added dignity to that office.
As captain of the new force he will,
without doubt, co ntinue in the faithful
discharge of his duties.

While many will regret to see officers
June and Martin removed from the
force there will be many that will be-
lieve a new deal will prove a great ben-
efit to the city.

Thomas Bradley, the new Chief, is
an old Officer of the‘New York police
department. He is also a veteran of
the war, having been a first sergeant in
the 15th N. Y. Engineers. As a police-
man in New York he bears an honor-
able record of twenty years service,
and with his new force, which every-
one will concede is a good one, will un-
doubtedly give us a police department
the peer of any in the state.

A Democratic View.

“‘But when it comes to business, Mr.
Chairman, I would not trust those fif-
teen lawyers on the ways and means
' committee to run the mule-end of my
stock farm,” said Mr. Sibley, of Penn-
sylvania, in the tariff debate in the
House.

Mr. Sibley is a democrat, but he is
opposed to the Wilson bill. Mr. Sibley
is best known in the House as a million-
aire owner of fine stock and blooded
horses.

He is as free and untrammeled in his
political opinions as the wild horse of
the plains, and as the former tosses its
head and with streaming mane careers
over the prairie, defying capture and
subjucation, so does Mr. Sibley, with
_ proudly erected crest, canter away
from the enthrallment of party lines.
No kite-shaped track or party lines for
him, but the boundless plain of person.

w‘ith hdb-nailed shoes drew a large and
When-,minficriticism of' the ways and
means committee, he made the above-

ized that it had not come in. vain.

Mr. Sibley said that when he stood
in the House on the 18th of August last
and voted with the minority against
the repeal of the silver bill the gentle-
man whose naine the present bill bore
(Mr. Wilson) predicted the dawn of a
new era of prosperity. But nothing
followed the passing of the repeal bill
but pauperism, poverty and ruin. He
made a bad mistake in his diagnosis.
He again'predicts that the sun of pros-
perity would rise on the country when
the pending tariff bill was passed. If
the gentleman from West Virginia
would lift the lid and look down to the
bottomless pit, it would look bright to
him. He announced his willingness to
give his voice and vote for a revenue
bill, but the present bill was a hybrid——
a cross between the highest protection
and the rankest free trade—and, like
all hybrids, possessed all the vices of
both‘ parents without the virtues of
either. The present bill would cause a
deficit of $75,000,000 a year. “I want to
know what you are going to do to make
up that deficit,” said Mr. Sibley. He
criticised very severely the action of
Secretary Carlislc in issuing bonds
to make good the existing deficit, and
he declared that the American people
were bondsmcn until those bonds we re
all paid. And he did not consider that
loan a temporary one, but year after
year, he said, there would be a steadily
increasing national debt. He saw no
reason to expect the contrary until the
tariff was arranged to provide the 11 cc—
essary revenue.

from the White house conservatory,
brought by the president. During the
brief services the president sat with bowed
head showing manifest traces of emotion.
Private Secretary Thurber said that the

nephew and was much disturbed thereat.
The house was filled with sympathizing
. friends and the street was crowded with
people anxious to get a view of the presi-
dent. President Cleveland remained
quietly at the house of his sister, Mrs.

nied himself to all callers except to one
or two personal friends.

RETURNED UNDER OLD TERMS.

 

A Local Merchant Terminates Bridge-

BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Jan. 25—11712 set-
tlement of the Traction company strike is
a. great relief to all concerned. . A. R.
Logie, the merchant who brought about
the compromise, drove the first car. He
offered to pay the men, for a. definite
period, the difierence in the wages paid
by the company and those demanded by
the strikers, 25 cents a day for each man;
if they would return to work. The com-
pany refused to take back nine of the
leaders in the strike and Mix. Logic has
given each of these a check for $25 to tide
them over until their cases could be set-
tled. The strikers returned as union men
under the old scale of wages.

_ The Old Police Force With chefx-

oeption .Remcved. ,

 

Captain Wallace Dann.

An adjourned meeting of the City
Council was held on Wednesday even-
ing, his honor, Mayor Keller and the
full board being present.

The lobby was uncomfortably filled
by spectators,who as later developments
in the meeting seemed to give witness,
had assembled to see as, to what action

would be taken in the much talked of.

matter of police appointments, .

After the reading of the minutes by
Clerk Lockwood, which were accepted,
a fedw bills were presented and ordered
par .

The committee appointed to act in the
matter of connecting Chief Engineer
Prowitt’s house with the fire alarm sys-
tem, reported that the expense would
propably be about $72. The report was
accepted and on motion of Councilman
Osborn, the committee was continued,
to report atthe next meeting of the
board._ ~

Councilman Osborn asked as to the
cause of the false fire alarm on the
night of Jan. 20 (which he confessed to
not having heard.) Chief Engineer
Prowitt explained that so far ashe had
been. able to learn the trouble was on
the wire in the vicinity of Smith street,
and made the pertinent remark that
the entire system needed remodeling,
and that it wouldhe hoped and believed
be done.

A resolution that the police force con-
siSt of five members was presented.
Councilman Wheeler asked the city .at-
torney if the passing of the "resolution
would preclude the increasing of the
number of the force to seven or more
at any subsequent meeting, and after
being assured that it would not, voted
with the rest of the board in favor of its
adoption. ‘

Amotion that the board proceed to the
election of members of the police force
prevailed.

The board then proceeded to ballot
with the following result :

Thomas Bradley 4
George L. Northrop 1
Robert N. Morehouse

Mayor Keeler declared Mr.
elected.

The ballot for the second member of
the force was :

Wallace Dann 4
Horace E. Dann 1
William E. Dann . 1
t Mr. Wallace Dann was declared elec-
ec . -
For the third member the vole was :
Robert N. Morehouse 4
W. A: Bartram ' 2 .

Mr. Morehouse received the same
recognition as had the previous “lucky
ones.”

The vote for the fourth member was :

W. A. Bartram 5
John H. Kinney 1

Mr. Bartram was declared elected.

For the fifth member of the force the
count showed the vote to be :

l .
Bradley

John H. Kinney 4 ,
Lewis R. June 1 "
A. A. Martin 1
Mayor Keeler declared Mr. Kinney
elected.

A resolution that the board proceed
to ballot for a chief of the police pre-
vailed, and on counting the ballots the
Mayor declared the vote as follows :

Thomas Bradley 4
Wallace Dann 1
R. N. Morehouse 1

Mr. Bradley was announced by the
Mayor as being the choice of the board
for chief of the police.

The ballot for captain of the police
force resulted in the choice of Wallace
Dann by an unanimous vote.

A resolution that all of the above ap-
pointments date from Feb. 1st, 1894,
was amended by Councilman Adams,
and made to read Feb. 10th, 1894, after
which it was unanimously passed.

The city clerk was instructed to give
notice to Officers Northrop, Martin and
June of the election of their successors.

Mayor Keeler expressed his approval
of the appointment of the officers as
made.

Councilman Osborn spoke of the er-
ratic actions of the electric light at the
corner of Orchard street and West
avenue, and was informed by Council-
man Adams that the electric light com-
pany’s superintendent had advised him
(Adams) that an expert had been em-
ployed to put the entiresystem in re-
pair, and a. satisfactory service would
no doubt result.

The Mayor complimented the GA-
ZETTE and Commissioner Adams for the
good work they had done in bringing
about a thorough cleaning of the
streets. ,

The followrng gentlemen were elect-
ed special policemen: A. J. Meeker,

John'Lowth, ,W. A. Ambler. E. L-

Griswold, D. C. Nash, Jarvis Kellogg,

D. Cornell, W. F. Lockwood, R. L.
De Forest, Levi Burdick, Lewis St.
John, W. R. Bates, Winfield Scott, F.
S. Ambler and James T. Hubbell.

An ordinance relative to the fixing of
the pay of the police force was passed
afind ordered printed in the Norwalk

our. .

" Councilman Pinneo suggested that a
relief committee be appointed to locate
and provide for the needs of the de-
serving. poor of the city.

Councilman Osborn favored the sug.
gestion and incidentally stated that it
had come to his knowledge that within
a stones throw of his own home there‘
was a family deserving of assistance but
were too sensitive to let their wants be
known.

Mayor Keeler stated that on Wednes-
day morning the sum of $25 had been
placed in his hands for charitable pur-
poses, and said that he was in full ac-
cord with Councilman Pinneo’s sug-
gestion.

It was voted that the Mayor appoint
acommittee of five to act upon Mr.
Pinneo’s suggestion.

It seemed to be the sense of the board
that other than councilmen be mem-
bers of such committee, and after ap-
pointing Mr. Pinneo a member of such
committee, the Mayor stated that he
would make further appointments to-

ay.
The petition of James Magner to
erect a shed‘cn Smith street was grant-

6 . .. .

It was voted that the city treasurer
furnish a properly attested bond of
$8,000 for the faithfulperformance of
his duties. _ ’

The board adjourned to Monday

white are thought by medical men to
be more susceptible to colds and infec-

Mothers would better realize before
the time is past that their happiest pe-
riod with their children is until they
are 15 years old or so. Up to that date
these dear ones are theirs alone.
They are not obliged to share them
with others in any way, and they can
feel that all their affections are lavrshed
at home. To some mothers the thought
of these fond hearts turning to others
in love and longing isa most saddening
prospect, but it is one that must be met.
It is hard to feel that a stranger—and
at times, perhaps, an unworthy one-—
can come into her loved one’s life and
dominate it as if by magic. But it’s the
same old course of the same old nature,
which seems to be about the only thing
that can’t be modernized.

 

Already there is a hue and cry about
the scarcity of dancing men. Fashion-

resigned themselves to the impossibility
of procuring partners for even one-

desire to dance, and their difficulty is
one which makes itself manifest at every
private or semi-private dance held all
over during the winter months. Young
men attend them, but they don t dance.
at least not in any considerable numbers
There are some energetic ones, it is
true, but even they, conscious of being
in demand, give them selves all sorts of
airs and only bestow their company
upon a favored few. It is (1 uite exaspera-
ting to gaze around a ball room during
the progress of a dance and note the
enormous number of girls “sittin g on t,”
and the knots of vacuous cxpressioned
young men standing idly around the
door or lounging in the smoke and
refreshment rooms. Whatis so surpris-
ing .is that they should go to the trouble
of attending a dance simply to stand
about. ‘

, OPERA HOUSE.

“Kapo Surato” who will appear at
both performances of the Alpha Wheel
club minstrels, January 30 and 31, is
exceptionally clever in his line,'having
some startling as well as amusing tricks
of sleight of hand and ledgerdemain.
The specialties by various members of
the company are above the average in
merit, and are bound to please the
large audience that is sure to be pres-
ent each evening. ‘

, HOYr’s OPERA HOUSE. ,

Friday and Saturday evenings, Feb.
2d and 25d will be opening nights at

Hoyt’s new opera house, in South Nor- ,

walk, at which time will be presented
“The Heart of Africa” and “The
Plunger.” Of the former play the Bos-
ton Post says: “Mr. and Mrs. Oliver
Byronmade a decided hit. in the pre-
sentation of the new drama, entitled
‘ The Heart of Africa,’ if a large house
and generous applause can be taken as
a. criterion. Mr. Byron played a dou-
ble role, John Roy, owner of the dia-
._mond mine, and Lionel Roy, his son,
in both of which. he was capital. Mr.
Maurice Pike, as Solomon Gartman,
kept the house in good humor all the
evening“ That occult art, hypnotism,
was well illustrated by Arthur J. Mack-
ley, as Adolpe Dasent. All of the cast
were suited for their different roles.
Such a large house speaks volumes for
Mr. and Mrs. Byron, who are old Bos~
ton favorites, and there is every evi‘
dence of a large demand for seats the
rest of the week.”

One on the Captain.

After instructing his men in the
points of the compass at the Armory
the other evening. it is stated Captain
Rose said to private Bates:

“You have in front of you the North;
on your right, the East; on your left,
the West. What have you behind you?”

Private Bates (after a few moments
reflection)—“My knapsack, Captain.”
