Better Times.

The Piltsburg Times, which is too
emphatically a Republican paper to be
suspected of any desire to glorify a
Democratic administration even by in-
ference, has been taking abusiness cen-
sus of twenty-six counties in Western
Pennsylvania just to see how the busi-
ness condition in that section compares
with last year. The counties included
are Allegheny, Armstrong, Bedford,

lair, Butler, Cambria, Cameron, Cen—
tre. Clarion, Crawford, Erie, Fayette,

Forest, Huntingdon, Indiana, Jefi'er-_

son, Lawrence, Mercer, McKean, Mit—
-flin. Potter, Somerset, Venango, War-
ren, Washington and Westmoreland,
and. the chief industries agriculture,
coal, oil, tanning, lumber, iron, steel,
machlnery and general merchandise.

With the exception of Cameron, which
is a lumber county with its lumber ex-
hautted, all the counties and nearly all
industries in these counties report great-
ly increased business activity. The
coal and coke plants of Fayette and
V‘i'estmoreland, the furnaces and rolling
mills of Alleghany, Armstrong ‘and
Cambria, the oil wells of McKean, War—
ren, Forest, Venango, Clarion, Butler,

‘ Allegheny and Washington, the; lumber
and tannery interests of a dozen‘ coun-
ties and the farming interests of all the
twenty-six,reportincreased activity and
a hopeful outlook for the future.

‘ £00111ng down to particulars, all who
want work are finding employment and
the wages in many establishments have
been advanced. Those who are idle are
those who choose idleness or the in-
efiicient who always find it diffcult to
secure employment because of their in-
efficiency. Better than the actual re-
sumption of business where idleness re-
cently prevailed is the hopeful spirit
which pervades the public mind in this
section, which comprises more than one-
third of the State. There is a general
belief that the end of hard times has
been reached, and people are going
about their biisiness with a confidence
which is in itself the best assurance of
prosperous times.

If this condition of reviving prosperi-
ty were confined to the counties named
it would be a sufficient cause for con-
gratulation and rejoicing. There is
good reason to believe, however, that
the conditions reported “in the counties
canvassed by the Pittsburg Times are
general and that a canvass of all see
‘fions of the country would reveal the
same general tendency. The news-
papers of other States that will take
the trouble to make a canvass similar
to that made of the twenty-six counties
of Western Pennsylvania will be almost
certain to chronicle a similar state of
affairs. Business is on the upward
trend everywhere and the day of the
croaker is over.

Some Obstacles Rernoved.
Cuban struggles for independence
and freedom have. been weIghted in
past days by the activefiexistenco cf
‘c‘nattel slavery and its financial and
commercial influences, especially those
,of the United States and Great Britain.
The ten years’ struggle of 1869-78 was
hindered from the beginning by the
V fact that our customs revenue from
Cuban exports was of great importance
to the United States Treasury, especial-
ly 1n the handling of credits so as to
influence current debt funding opera-
tions. It practically made the 'l‘rca'su1y
unfriendly to the Cuban movement.
Another and very important, if indi
rect, factor in the scales of American
influence was found in the fact that
American capitalists and business
homes, of both heme and Cuban char-

a’ctcr, were the creditors of the “island ,1

l .
. planters and slave owners.

gages thus created included the human
chattels, who in reality, with plants,
tools, crops and products, were the
principal security for such debts.
Hence, there was a. strong undercurrent
against a change in the status of labor.

All this has largely changed. Our
customs revenue will not be greatly
affected. Louisiana planters will be
benefited by an increased demand, and
chattel slaves in Cuba are no longer
available for mortgage purposes. Be-
sides, American capital now has large
interests looking to the Gulf and Ca-

. ribbian Sea for profit.

'Raoe prejudices have never been as
serious with people of the Latin stocks
as they always are with our Anglo-Sam
on broods. Altogether free, Cuba is
not handicapped now as was the case
twenty years ago.

Republican League Meeting.

The annual convention of the Con-
necticut State League of Republican
Clubs was held in Bridgeport, yester-
day. Seventy-five delegates were pres-
ent, representmg twenty-firm clubs in
all the principal cities and towns in the
State. President James B. Farnsworth,
of New Haven, occupied the chair,» and
the report of Secretary W. P. Glynn, of
Winsted, showed the league to be in a
prosperOus condition. The meeting
was the largest the league ever held in
an 011' year.

The election of officers resulted as
follows: President, James B Farns-
worth, of New Haven; secretary, Wil-
liam P. Glynn; of Winsted; treasurer,
Howard H. Scribner, of Bridgeport.

Death of F. A. Bartram.

Frederick A. Bartram died at his
home in Bridgeport, yesterday after~
noon, of Bright’s disease. Mr. Bar-
tram was a son of Gurdon and Loraine
Sanford Bartram, and was born 1n Red-
ding, September 13th, 1824. He was
the youngest of eight sons, of whom
D. S. Bartram of this city was one.
At the age of sixteen he entered the
employ of Bartram & Wilson, carriage
makers at Redding. In 1848 he re-
moved to Fairfield and in 18511married
Miss Amelia Burr of Fairfield. In 1854
he established the pork packing indus-
try in Fairfield and removed to Bridge:-
port in 1867 where he established the
firm of F. A. Bartram & 00., being the
pioneer of that industry inBridgeport.
He is survived by a widow, a son and
three daughters. He was essentially a
self-made man, his great success being
the result of an indomitable will cou-
pled with good judgment, keen busi-
ness foresight and integrity of charac-
ter. He came from a family of revolu-
tionary fame, several members of which
served with distinction in the war and
the family was considered one of the
most honorable in Fairfield.

General Assembly.

That there will be an extra session of
the General assembly in 1896 is now
practically assured.

Stiles Judson, of Stratford, the Re-
publican leader in the House, announc-
ed to the representatives yesterday that
that was the plan adopted by the lead-
ers of the majority. This extra session
will be devoted to the revision of the
state constitution, and thd various
amendments which are now before the
General Assembly will be postponed
until that time. The plurality election
amendment. which is now ready for
action was made the special order of the
day for May 23, but at that time it will
be side tracked and eventually left over
until January. The Committee on
Constitutional Amendments reported
the commission which is to have charge
of the levision of the constitutlon. The
Fairfieid county members follow: Ly-
man D. Brewster, John H. Perry, Wil-
liam D. Bishop (Dem) R. J. Walsh,
Moms W. Seymour (Dem. ), Edwin L.
Schofield, George E. Waldo, CharlesS.
Andrews.

In the Senate the bill providing for
the appointmeht of prosecuting agents
by the Superior Court instead of by the
county commissioners as at present,
which passed the House recently was
indefinately postponed by a vote of 15

 

 

 

 

to 7. This action practically kills the
bill. »

day, William Lewis of Bridgeport was

A special meeting of the Daughters
of the American Revolution was held
at the home of Mrs. E. J. Hill on West
avenue, this morning, at ,which meet-
ing arrangements :were completed for
an entertainment to be given at the
residence Of John H. Ferris. The ob-
ject of the entertainment is to raise

for the placing of a Memorial tablet on
Flax Hill.

 

 

Kept It Qulet.

A little bird dropped into town this
morning and whispered that Mr. Thom-
as O’Gorman, of Prayidencc, who for-
merly conducted the Boston store in
this city, had been presented by Mrs.
O’Gorman on Tuesday last with a fine
baby boy, and mother and . heir were
doing nicely. Mr. O’Gorman has many
friends here who will cordially congrat-
ulate him and although he has kept the
news very quiet they will say cigars
when next he visits Norwalk.

, Wadhams'vs. Gray.

The caseof Wadhams vs. Gray, was
on trial in the court of Common Pleas,
this afternoon. The case was reached
at 1 o’clock and Attorney Light opened
for the plaintiff. He was followed by
Attorney Walsh who appeared for Gray
and submitted the defendant’s answer.
Attorney Light then made a general ,de-
nial of the claims made in the answer
of the defendant, after which a recess
was ordered. The case will probably
occupy the remainder of- to-day and all
of to-morrow.

 

 

 

 

No More Circus: Parades.
Although the circus will not cOme

and that spectacular feature will never
again be seen in Norwalk. '

it. They are not Of sufiicient height to
allow many of the chariots to pass be

In most of the cities on their routes the
circuses this year have had to abandon
their parades.

Railroad Wreck.
Early this morning while the “switch-

cars near Jennings’ wharf three cars
jumped the track, and traffic was de-
layed for a time.

The accident which occurred on what
is known as the long siding was caused
by the spreading of the tracks upon
which imprcvements were being made.

Abox car, heavily freighted, was
thrown from the track and lay on its
back as if struck by a Kansas cyclone.
Two more freight cars; were thrown
from their trucks and across the tracks

ward trucks.

In falling from the tracks one of the
cars knocked down a telephone pole,
causing a delay in the transmitting of
messages. The trouble was quickly ad-
justed.

The wreck caused the shutting 011' Of-
the early morning train for Danbury,
which is usually run out from the yard
neir Pine Island every morning.

The main track was in no wise blocked
and the down train due here about 7
o’clock went through all right, and after
reaching South Norwalk, took the place
of the usual early train and returned to
Daubury, forty-five minutes late.

At about the time of the first acci-
dent, the caboose of the same train was
punted off from the tracks near Ann

street, into the yard near the corset fac-

tory.
The wrecking train arrived promptly
and a gang of men is engaged in clean-

BAKER/S MIND AFFECTED.

the Vigilance League Is Now Looking For .

Howard Thompson.

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., May 15. ~Moore
Baker, the young farmer of Franklin
Park who was m'urderously assaulted by
an unknown person, probably in revenge
for the killing of the negroes Willard
Thompson and Henry Baker, slayers of
Moore Baker’s wife and child, was in a
worse condition today because of his
Wounds.
ar's mind is affected. The heavy blow
which he sustained did not fracture his
skull, but the shock was such as to afloat
his brain. ,

Baker now broods over the terrible trag-
edy at his home on March 1, 1894, and
fears the revenge of the negro friends of
Thompson and Baker. Boyd Baker, a
brother of Moore, has been busy day and
night since the assault hunting a claw.

It has been learned that George Thomp-
son, father of Willard Thompson, Howard
Thompson 'and two' brothers of Henry
Baker passed Moore Baker on the road on
the eventful night.

The Vigilance league is making a search
for Howard Thompson.

ALLEGED MINE SWINDLE.

Belief of the Purchasers of the (311011 Hope
That They Have Been Hoaxed.

RIVERSIDE, Cal" May 15. -—The syndi-
cate of capitalists living in Haverhill,
Mass, who bought the Good Hope mine
nearly a year ago for $250, 000 have come
to the conclusion that they have paid too
much for the property. They now desire
the courts to aid them in throwing 011.
5100, 000 from the purchase price.- The
eastern men say the Good Hope has a con-
siderable body of ore. but they claim that
when they bought the property they were
duped outrageously by means of the old
device of “salting. ” -Ore which had been
thus fixed, they say, was run through the
mill when the exports representing the
syndicate made their tests. As a result of
this deceit, they declare they paid several
times the value of the mine. These alle-
gations are contained in the answer which
the defendants have filed in a suit to fore-
close a mortgage of $100. 000 which they
gave when they took the mine.
