Among the names are a number of
our best citizens, but there are others
whose names ought never to have been
placed in inomination. They are not
the men who are an honor to the town,
nor are they such as would have been
drawn had the people been consulted
in their choice.
If anyone doubts that the system of

7 The Business Revival.
, The railway freight traffic affords a
fair gauge of the country’s business,
both positive and comparative, and the
number of freight cars demanded by
the roads gauges that traffic. The fact
that there is now an increased demand
forlsuch 'cars shows conclusively that the
go eneral business of the country is im- .
proving. Slnce last January the rail-
roads have contracted for 21,590 cars,
and bids are being offered for 3,000
more. These figures presenta striking
contrast with the rectord‘ for 1894, when
the aggregate output was less by 5, 000
than the total of the orders placed dur-
ing the first five months of, 1895.
Should there be no falling off in con—
tracts during the remainder of the year,
by reason of short crops or other lun-
forseen cccurences, the car manufac-
tcries will have about the same amount
of business as they had in 1893, but this
will be far below the capacity of the
shops. In this, as in every branch of
our industries, the plants are greatly in
excess of the average necessity. In
many branches they are above the
maximum demand, producing a waste
of capital. Competition is so Keen that
manufacturers who have large sums in-
‘ vested in surplus plants cannot get pro-
fits on such investments.
In 1892 the railroads of the United
States bought 93,000 new freight cars.
In 1890 the number purchased was
something over 103,000. The normal
average of new cars, according to the
lailroad Gazette’s estimate, should be
'the 1892 'output793,000. -'This. year§s~4
contracts, while very encouraging, do
not indicate an entire recovery from
the depression that set in two years ago.
It is easier to decend than to climb. A
month, of panic inflicts injuries that
may last for years. The panic Of 1873
may not have been so universally dam-
aging as that of 1893, but the influence
of the former was not felt for a longer
period than is likely to be the case with
that of'the latter. All over the country
there are signs of improvement.
are being increased, not as a. result of
costly strikes, but voluntarily. The in-
crease made in the past eight weeks will
add more than a million dollars to the
monthly pay-rolls. We do not look for
an early cessation of the signs of re:
turning prosperity. We believe the
improvement will go on and thatvit will
eventually be be crowned by a settle-
ment of the currency question, which
is now the only distributing factor in
the business situation.
The deep and general interest that is
manifested in the silver question—or
the question of national currrency—is
one of the most hopefulof all the signs
of the times. The country is in the
midst of a great educational campaign
even while the revival of business is
going on. And, since this issue is one
that must be decided by ballots, it is
fortunate that the interest in it is so
widespread. The discussion will go on
and the settlement will, in due time, be
reached. Meanwhile the credit of the
Nation, of the states and of municipali-
ties shows no impairment. Every dol:
. er of our currency, whether of silver
or gold, whether a greenback, a silver
certificate, or a coin note, is just as l-

good as every other dollar, and we have
no party that does not profess a desire
and purpose to maintain this credit and
this equality of the dollars.

City Council.
A regular meeting of the city council
was held last evening, the Mayor and
full board being present, with the ex-
ception of Councilman Wheeler. .
Bills to the amount of $1, 747. 94 were
presented and with one or two except-
ions, where they wcre referred to the
proper committees with power, ordexed
paid.
The report of chief police Bradley
in which sixteen arrests were reported
for the month of May and details in
reference to the disposal of those ar-
rested together with minor matters
concerning the officers, etc... was read,
accepted and ordered. on file.
Councilman Smith presented the new
survey Of Ward street, as prepared by
Engineer Wood, and it was referred to
the highway committee until such time
as the committee should decide upon
the matter of proposed improvements
on that street. .
It was voted that the city engineer be
authorized to establish curb and gut-
ter lines on Butler street, andthe city
clerk was. instructed to issue proper
notice to property owners on that street
when such curb and gutter lines are es-
tablished and approved.
Councilman Smith reported that he
had conferred with the Selectmen in
reference to the town appropriation
for use on the highways in the city, and
" -' was given. to understand: that it. was hot"
within their province to increaso the
amount frOm the sum appropriate (1 last."
year, and that they were ready to pay
the usual amount on or about June 1st.
The chairman of the finance commit-
tee was instructed to call upon the Sel-
ectmen for such amount.
On motion of Councilman Osborn the
petitions for sewers on Stevens street,
Prospect Hill and Step Rock road and
on Spring Hill which were tabled at a
previous meeting of the Council were
taken from the table. The estimated
cost of the sewers was as follows :
Spring Hill, $1,695.
Prospect avenue, $2,061.
Stevens street, $1,692.
Making a total expenditureof $5,448.
Councilman Smith said that some-
thing ought surely be done in reference
to the placing of a sewer on Spring
Hill, as the present conditions were a
menace to health. He was of the be-
lief that it would not be long before
the health board would complain of the
unsanitary conditions that prevail on
that street.
After some discussion it was voted
that a Special city meeting be called
for Monday, June 10th, at 3 o’clock, p.
, to take action on the several. peti-
tions for sewers and to appropriate
money for the building of such sewers
as should by a vote of the meeting be
ordered.
The chairman of the finance commit-
tee was instructed to borrow $2 ,000 on
the credit of the city and give a note
for same.
Councilman Pinnco reported the
Isaac sewer extension as being com.
pleted and presented map of same
which was accepted.
The Council then adjourned to J was

' HaliThrough the State.
A hail storm of extraordinary severi-
ty passed over Stepney and a few towns
north of that place yesterday afternoon
doing considerable damage. The
stones were as large as butternuts. The
early crops were damaged considerably.
Cattle had lumps raised on their backs
the crops of earl y cabbage were ruined,
In Bristol the storm broke at 12:15
and lasted about 15 minutes. Hail
stones five 1nches 1n circumference fell
and did much damage. The house of
John Suesser was struck by lightning
and Mrs. Suesser prostrated by the,
shock. \
In Milford the storm struck about
1:30 o ’clock and did extensive damage
principally to fruit-trees and the early
crops. The size of the hail stones were
about% of an inch. Charles P. Ford,
the fruit grower, had many trees blown
down and windows shattered by the
hail. In Morris and East Morris the
storm wasjust as revere and reports
from that section show the damage
done to be great.
At Litchfieid the hail was light and
no damage was done. In Washington
the bail storm was experienced, but
there was no serious damage.
Winsted had both rain and hail for a
short time. The hailstones were about
the size of marbles. ' No serious dam-
age was done, however.
Danbury escaped the bail storm and
Bethel got it, but no damage was done.
At 3 o’clock a light hail fell at Tor-
rington, but lasted only a few minutes
and no damage is reported.
N orwalk escaped the hail, but exper-
ienced a hard rain followed by a decid-
edly cool wave.

Two ltalians Quarrel Over 31 W0-
man.
The Police Securing the Country
for the Would-be Murderer.
In a little but on the narrow thor-
'oughfare that runs backward from the.
Burr road in Black Rock, between
Fairfield avenue and the railroad tracks,
occurred a stabbing afi'ray at 2:30
o’clock this morning which was all but
a murder and which almost resulted in
the death of Stephen Barna, an Italian
30 years old, who is employed at Red-
field’s quarry. The man who wielded
the knife was John Boros, also an Ital-
ian, employed at the quarry. Boros is
50 years old.
There had been bad blood between
Boros and Burma for some time.
Boros was arrested some time ago
for theft and Berna, was obliged to
swear against him in court.
Boros never forgave Barns for this,
but the two might have got along had
not a new element entered into their
enmity.
The additional on use of trouble was
a dissolute young woman;who played
fast and loose with the affectiohsi of
both Rama and Boros. Boros being
the younger and more favored by na-
ture of the two, it was natural that he
should be the more, favored by the
woman.
Berna and the woman spent the early
part of Monday night together, al-
though Boros had an appointment to
meet the woman. When he learned of
his rival’s success he became frantic
and vowedvengencc of the direct kind.
His opportunity came a little after 2
o ’cIOck, when he learned that Burns.
had returned to his boarding house.
He obtained admission to the house
and called Barna to the kitchen. Bar-
na went unsuspectingly, and was met
with a terrible blow of a club. He
quickly defended himself and the strug-
gle took both men outside the ~door.
Here Boros drew a knife and dealt
Burns a blow over the right temple, the
sharp point of the knife cutting through
the scalp tolthe bone and severing the
temporiiry artery. Barna had 'no weap-
on and sought safety 1n a small wood-
shed, drawing the door behind him.
her cs made severalinefi'ectual attempts
to get into the shed and failing went to
his room.
The other boarders were by this time
awakened and sought to wreak venge-
ance on Boros. He escaped through a
window and ran toward the woods. . He
could not be found. '
Barna’ s friends started to notify the
police and reaching a telephone sent
word to the Bridgeport Police that
murder had been done.
They found Barna sittting in a chair
in his boarding house with blood all
over him. Ascore of excited Italians
were running about, creating a con-
fusion which, if anything, would delay
the capture of the fugitive.
Burns. was put into the patrol wagon
and taken to the Emergency Hospital at
Bridgeport, to have the wound dressed
while six. policemen started out to scour
the woods for his assailant.
The police of this city and South Nor-
walk were notified by telephone to look
out for .the would be murderer, who it
was thought was coming this way either
on foot or freight train.

recognized the perilous situation of Mr.

grabbed the horse by the bit and giv-
