The Battle in New York.
Senator Hill will be defeated for
Governor if he should remain in the
field. It is idle to speculate as to the
issue of such;a contest. Even if the
present political tide were as strongly
with the Democrats as it is with the
Republicans, there would be more than
danger in his candidacy ; with the pop-
ular tide strongly against the Demo-
cratic party, because Of severe business
and industrial distress for which tarifi'
tinkering is responsible, the election of
Hill as Governor of New York is not
within the range of possibility.
It is evident that Senator Hill did
not seek the nomination for Governor.
He is a very able, 'cunning‘ and unscru-
pulous politician, and he practically
owned the convention that nominated
him, but it cut 011’ from Democratic
affiliation scores of thousands of the
most intelligent and independent Dem-
ocratic voters, by refusing any repre-
sentation to the Democrats of New
York and Brooklyn, who sent contest-
ing delegations to the convention, and
the large body of Hill’s enthusiastic
followers obviouslylost sight of the in-
superable obstacles to Hill’s election,
and in an eruption ofenthusiasm forced
himupon the ticket against his earnest
and, we doubt not, honest protest.
The enthusiasm exhibited at the con-
ventiOn inspired its members with the
belief that the Democracy of New York
was again united under the lead of its
strongest candidate and-that it could be
successful ; but since they have reached
their homes and come in contact with
that people they must have learned the
fearful mistake they committed for the
.. party andthe cruel wrong they inflicted
upon Senator Hill; They forced him
to the front as a conspicuous and defi-
ant thrget for every independent voter
who does not believe in nationalizing
Tammany politics, and they forced
upon the Democrats of New York the
always dangerous issue of making a
presidential candidate for-the next na'
tional contest. .This. fact- alone would
have defeated‘Sena'tor'Hill at this time,
and when his rec'o’rd during 'the last
session of the-Senate is considered, ex-
hibiting the most- viudictive hostility to
‘ the .DemocratipfidtiOnal administration
and with a score Or more of Democratic
nominations in his own state refused
confirmation by him, it is simply mid-
summer madness to ,present him as a
hopeful candidate for Governor in this
fateful year for the Democracy.
Itis now announced that Judge Gay-
nor will decline the State Judicial
nomination tendered him by the con-
vention,_ and if- Senator Hill is as saga-
cious as his friends give him credit for,
he will give an early declination also,
and look for some eminently able and
thoroughly acceptable candidate to
lead the party ‘in the coming battle.
With Hill as the candidate for Gover-
nor in New York,itmeansinevitab1e
defeat for the party and the political
destruction of Hill himself.
Such is the editorial opinion of so
sagaciousa Democrat as Colonel Mc-
‘ Clure of the Philadelphia Times.
A Two-Minute Mile in Sight.
The mile paced in 159% by Flying Jib
a't Chillicothe, in harness, with a run-
ning mate, while counting as nothing
more than an unofficially timed exer-
cise trial, may well be accepted as evi'
dence that a. pacing record Of two
minutes or better is a possibility of.the
immediate future. _ ' ’ p
The magic. line of two minutes for a
mile by ath‘rse in harness has been
crossed on a kite-shaped track, by a
paces whirled along by the ,help ofa
running horse at hisside. Never mind.
Flying Jib, the performer in question,
is merely an irregular skirmisher for a
line advancing in his rear. He has
pushed forward in light order, just as
.Westmont in 1884, harnessed with a
running mate like Flying Jib, jumped
teiiiseconds beyond the mark then ex-
isting, and left the pacers and trotters
going in the orthodox manner to strug-
gle after him. In 1894, the tenth year
after Westmont,.finds that the pacer,
in Robert J ., has dropped a quarter of
a second below Westmont’s record,
and the trotter Alix only two seconds
behind, hoping to range up alongside.
So it will be with Flying J ib’s laurels.
Some day a successor, going singly,
‘will also pubs in 1.59.}, and latter a
trotter will do the same. , '
Flying Jib, although known to pos-
sess a terrific flight of speed, has fre-
_ quently been distanced in his race,
' attributable to " his erratic disposition
and not to any want of courage or lack
of speed. Trained as much to stay as
to go fast, his coming out with no pre-
vious preparation for such an efi‘ort and
‘pacing in better than two minutes is
presumptive giant with . a careful and
special preparation 'for one fast mile,-
,Flying Jib and":..the pacer Westmont, '
whose champion record '01” 2.01%}. with
running mate; was made in.188_4, are
both from the same branch of the Ham-
bletonian family, 'the lattervbeing by
Almont, and , Flying Jib by Algona, a
son of Almeria, .~

' Sanford, moved to declare'Mr. Hill the
nominee by acclamation, was a distin-
guished honor conferred upon Norwalk
as well as upon ~its'most enterprising
citizen. Hon. Sam. Fessenden in his
earnest and eloquent presentation of
Mr. Hill’s name to the convention, did
not exaggerate his qualifications, his
business thrift and energy and the
trust reposed in him in this community.
. Local pride should, in addition to
party affiliation, give him a strong sup-
port here at his home. Th’isi is decid-
edly and unmistakhly “A republican
year,”yet in a districtiso largely demo-
cratic as ours has been in the past,it will
require earnest and concentrated effort
to secure his election. And if elected,
every democrat as as well as republi-
can, knows thnt no town, district or
state in the whole American Union will
have in Congress a more ind efatiga-
ble worker for its interest than Mr. E.
J. Hill. '
Op.———-—v
Mr. Hlll’s Speech.
After his nomination, Mr. Hill was
called to the stage and amid cheers and
the utmost enthusiasm, responded as
follows :
Republicans in this fight already be.
gun against southern Democracy, I
believe that we shall wrn in the election.
I do not see how we can do otherWise
after the battles of yesterday. I thank
you for the nomination and accept it in
the fullness of my heart.”
The convention then adjourned with
three more cheers for Hill. '

Retirement of David P. Rhoades.
David P. Rhoades, for many years
the president of the New York News
company, retired from actve busrness
Saturday. He was an associate of
Horace Greeley in founding the. Tri-
bune and was one of the original stock~
holders.
He had also been connected with Mr.
Greeley in the publication of the New
Yorker and the Log Cabin. When the
Tribune was started Mr. Rhoades took
charge Of the work of delivering and
selling the paper, and he personally
sold some of the first copies in the
street. He continued in the manage-
ment of the delivery department of the
newspaper for 26 years and then re-
tired to start the news company, which
he continued to control until it was
consolidtaed with the American News
company? Mr. Rhoades is still hale
and hearty. He lives at Stratford.

Mr. Rhoadeswas a delegate yester-
day from Stratford, t0" the Congres-

Hill,‘just the same as his old colaborer,
Horace Greeley wouldhave done, had
he been alive and a'delegate.

This letter appeared in a divorce case
at Philadelphia the other day :
“My Dear Mat : You must not think too
hard of your Helen for seeking other pastures
and fields that are more inv1ting. I am a
bicvclomaniac. At one time you said that you
had bicychloroszs. It must have been con-
tagious. I am infatuated, heart, soul, mind.
and body, with my wheel : more so if ,the sad
truth must be tpld, than I ever was With you.
I get more oomiort and satisfaction from my
wheel than I could derive by being tied down
by your side. My wheel is young and frisky,
and we are more congenial companions than
you and I could be. Do as you please _in -he
matter of divorce but you can never divorce
me from my wheel. Farewell forever.

Narrow Escape of'the Occupants.
The residence of Hubbard Blakeslee,
on the West Rocks Road, and known
as the Odell place, was burned to the
ground this morning and the occu-
pants of the house, had a-narrow escape
from perishing in the flames” _
About 12 o’clock the attention of two
Hungarians in the employ of r.
Blakeslee and who sleepnn the barn,
was attracted to the continued barking
of the dogs on the premises. They got
up and looking out discovered that the
house was on fire. Hastening to the
building they rapped_ loudly on the
door of the room in which Mr. Blakes:
lee was sleeping with a lad named Wer-
ner, a. son of Mr. Blakeslee’s house-
keeper, Mrs. Albert Werner, who wss
sleeping in another room With her
daughter. She was also awakened and
all four had hardly time to get _o_ut of
the house in a half dressed condition so
rapidly did the fire spread. In his
haste Mr. Blakeslee left his wallet, con-
taining quite a sum of money under his
pillcwand Mrs. Werner left a sum. of
money in a bureau drawer, all of which
was burned up.
The house was burned to the ground
together with'its contents, including all
of the wearing apparel of the occupants
about twentyfive bushels of potatoes,
twelve barrels of wine and cider, house-
hold furniture, etc. , - .
Mr. Blakeslee says that the night be-
fore he was awakened by a noise about
his chicken coop and getting up made
an investigation, but failed to find any;
one about the premises. He believes
that the fire was incendiary as there had
been no fires in the house after 6
o’clock. He thinks that a pile. of salt
hay which was in close proxtmity to
the kitchen was set on fire as it was at
that portion of the house where the fire
was first seen by the Hungarians.
Fortunately the wind was not in the
direction of the barns or they too would
have been burned. ,
The escape of the occupants of the
building was indeed miraculous.
Mr. Blakeslee estimates his loss at
over $1,000 on which there was no in-
surance.

-er «Sr Wilson’s Band would have left
Bridgeport without a first class musical
organization had not Col. William H.
Stevenson stepped promptly into the
field and supplied its successor in quan-
tum sufiicz’t. The Colonel did not relish
the idea of his own beautiful city, with
a people accustomed to and passionate-
ly fond of good music, being without a
tip-top band. and the Col. Stevenson
Military Band takes rank with similar
great aggregations in this country.”
E. J. Hill’s Nomination.
Two years ago the Republican nomi-
nation for Congress in this district was.
disposed of at an auction. We are glad
to see that the morals of the party have
so far improved that this year the nom-
ination was made by a convention—-
Bridgeport Farmer.
’ The Republicans are first in the field
with the congressional candidate from
this district. Hon. E. J. Hill or Ner-
walk is their choice. His opponent
will undoubtedly be Hon. Robert E.
DeForest,of this city. The Republican
nomination is looked upon" as strong
and the Democrats certainlycould not
improve on Mr. DeForest as a candi
date. With these two gentlemen in
the field a lively campaign may be ex-
pected—Bridgeport Union.
