Last ngint’s Caucus.

The triumph of Captain Isaac Selleck
in the Republican nominating Caucus
for Selectman last night, came in the-
nature of a 5sui‘prise. Mr. Selleck was
a most careful, active and useful select-
man a dozen years ago and if elected
will bring experience as well as scrupu-
lous and methodical cue to the admin:
istration of his duties.

Mr. Raymond has no doubt endeav-
ored to per form all his official duties
with conscientious fidelity, but as all
know, he has, as has Mr. Daskam, (who
awaits the same fate,) been sadly han-
dicapped by the old time and bewilder-
Sing methods of keeping the town’s ac-
counts. The awakened public protests
against so unbusinesslike methods of
Conducting the town’s affairs, has, as is
seen, taken the shape this year in de-
manding a change in the old board.

Had the well intentioned and entirely
meritoribus rescsulution introduced last
year, having in view a change of the Old,
to new and better methods of adminis-
tratioi’i of the Town’s financial affairs,"

- been permitted to have gone into effect,
no such grounds for a radical change in
the office of our seletcmen, would have
arrisen. A false and intriguing pretend~
ed friend was permitted to lure Mr.
Raymond and Daskam to their defeat.

A Duty on Wool.

There is probably truth in. the state-
ment which emanates from Washington
that the House Ways and Means Com-
mittee of the Fifty- fourth Congress will
introduce a bill at an early date favor~
ing the imposition of. a duty on wool.
There are two reasons why this report
Seems to be well founded. In the first
place Treasury receipts continue to fall
behind expenditures, and in the second
place the changes and reductions which
the new tsrili' have effected in the rates
of duty on woolen goods in consequence
of “untaxing” raw wool have worked
disaster to many branches Of the woolen
industry. So eminent a Democrat au-
thority as ex-Represientative Sp‘erry, of
Hartford, who Voted for the Wilson
German folly, is reported as frankly de-
claring tbili “the new tariff is unsatis-
factory in my section of the country,”
and that “among all our woolen manu~
facturers there is a feeling of uneasi—

 

uess.”

however, in lOok facts
squarely in the face. Mr. Cleveland’s
famous tarifi measage of 1837 cOnSisted
principally of an argument against pro-
tection to the American wool industry,
and it as generally understood that it
was chiefly the provision for free
wool in the Demociatic tariff bill' which
induced him to allow the latter to be;
come a law. On the subject of free
woolhhe has stubbornly refused to yield

an inch. Not even the threatened
bankruptcy of the Treasury would prob-

ably snflice to cause him to change his
views. '

t is- well,

More revenue must undoubtedly be
secured, but while Cleveland occupies
the White House, it seems idle to ex
pect him to ablndon his opposition to
free wooi.

Happy Children

Miss Minnie Wixon, a teacher in the
Congregational Sunday school, gave
the members of her class a pretty little
reception, yesterday afternoon- After
enjoying out-of-door games for a sea-
son, the guests adjourned to the house
Where the festivities were Curtinued.
Good natured Deacon Wixon also did
much tovmake the little ones happy.
A splendid repast was served which
~ was heartily enjoyed. A happy thought
and one that greatly pleased the child-
-ren was the provision of a palatable
little cak‘e for each member of the class,
embellished with the initial of their
name. Miss Wixon is a great favorite
With her class, and it was with no small
amount of reluctance that they departed
from the scene of pleasure.

Almost a Collision.

Motorman Matheiv, about 10 30 O’clock
this morning, While in the pilot house
of a Street Railway car speeding down
West avenue, had his attention attract~
ed at first to a canine that came rushing
like mad down the steps leading to the
Lynes residence, and almost instantly
a horse and wagon dashed on to the
track in front of the car. V Henry put
the brake hard down and stopped the
car and averted a colliSion. The horse
was driven by a clerk employed by A.
Malmo, and it had become frightened
by the canine.

About forty ladies and gentlemen

hi-tden in.various parts of the house,
among the beans being a brunette, the
successful finder of which was entitled
to a prize. Its whereabouts was located
by M138 Falks who was awarded a pair
of sugar tongs. Miss Katie Ruscoe
gathered the largest number of beans
and was presented with a bon—bon

NO "Equinoctiat" This Year.

The fine, clear weather of September
pretty effectually disposed of the popu-
lar theory that when the sun crosses the
equator there must follow minus and
extensive atmospheric disturbances,
high winds, and heavy rains. The equi-
noctial storm used to be an institution
like Christmas. Thousand of peOple
believe in it still. The fact that many
a 23d of September has been clear and

cloudless has .1102. broken the faith of'

the peOple, and all'tnat Farmer Dunn
and the“ rest of the Weather Bureau
have said, has not been sufficient to end
the falacy.

The popular idea is that when the sun
crosses the equator it springs a trap
that lets loose all kinds of unpleasant
weather. Nothing could be more un-
reasonable than this belief, says Mr.
Dunn. The crossing of the line by the
sun has absolutely nothing to do with
the September storms.

and ex-selectman Isaac Selleck.
Both had printed ballots in circulation
that of Mr. Raymond being distinguish-

ed from that of Mr. Selleck not only by.

reason of bearing a difl'erent name, but

thirteen votes, asked to be heard, and

substanca:

CHINA’S PBNANOE.

'A Statement Concerning the Punishmen
of the Viceroy of Sz‘eohnen.

LONDON, Oct. 3.—Sir Halliday Macart
ney, counselor of the Chinese legatior
here, referring to the acceptance by Chiui
of the ultimatum of Great Britain, he:
made a statement-to the efi'ect that tht
punishment of the- viceroy of Szechuen
for failing to protectthe missionaries i1
his district, was decided upon before tha
ultimatum was presented, and that th.
Chinese minister in London received no
tics-of the issuing of the decree at 2 p. m
on Sunday.

It is iinderstoodin official" circles her:
that the degradation "of the viceroy by m
means settles the matters ’in dispute 'be

. tween Great Britain and China. Neither
does it affect possible claims for indemnity
or demands for refOrms.

Professor R. E.‘ K. Douglass has writ
can a letter to The Times, in which IN
says that Viceroy Liu Ping Chang was
degraded last November, and it is now
thought that the recent action of the Chi
nese government is nothing more than 1

‘trick to deceive Great Britain.

Corbett Thinks John L. Sullivan Chorale
Not Referee the Fight.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.—-“Nobody know:
any better than myself,”.said Champion
Corbett, “that when I meet Fitzsimmom
in Texas-I am going to have the hardest
fight of my career. Consequently, I have
been taking good care of myself, despite
reports to the contrary, and my condition
today is .such as to justify the confidence
of my backers. I never was in battle]
physical condition'than 'I am at present.

 

myself, but when we strip in the .ring at
Dallas, or elsewhere, Iwill look likea boy
alongside my opponent. He is biggei
across the chest than I am, but my flesh is
more evenly distributed. ' It is more that:
likely Fitzsimmons will weigh about 165,
and that makes a pretty good heavyweight
fighter.

“There has been some agitation of flu
name of John L. Sullivan for referee oi
the battle. but I do not see how he could
accept such a position. If. by any chance
or fluke, I should lose the fight and Sulli-
van should be the referee, there would bl
a never ending flow of tail: about paying
off old grudges, and, for my part, I don’t
think Sullivan Wants to be thus situated.’

Fitz Won't Divide.
G-ALVESTON, Oct. 3.-—-A special tron
Corpus Christi, Tex... says: “The Fitzsim
mons party is comfortably domiciled ix

day the Australian got down to bare
training. A telegram was received hen
from Cincinnati, stating that Corbett ant
party had made the assertion that Fitz
siinmons had offered to divide the purse
Martin Julian denounced the’assertion it
the strongest terms. He said he woulé
give $1,000 if Corbett or any of his party
would prOve that any such propositlor
was made by Fitzsimmonsor any ma!

authorized to represent him.”

Henry, at Lorri kl‘hEZldS.

LONDON, Oct. 3. -—- l ccording to the gen—
eral understanding in cour tcircles here,
Emperor William of Germany and his
brother, Prince Henry of Prussia, are on
very bad terms and Queen Victoria and
ex-EmpreSs Frederick have been doing
their utmost to bring about a. reconcilia-
tion between them. The emperor and
Prince Henry, it appears, recently had' a
Warm discussion on naval affairs in gen-
eral and upon the management of the Bal-
tic and North sea canal in particular. The
prince, it is added, difi'ered in opinion
. with the emperor and intimated that the

recent mishaps in the canal were due to
his majesty’s injudicious orders. This is
said to have led to. quite an exciting ex-
change of remarks.
, The matter has now crept into the
newspapers, and Truth today, referring to
'it, says:

"It turns out that there has been a dif-
ference of opinion between Emperor Wil-
liam and Prince Henry of Prussia which
has assumed large proportions, and. the ef-
fort of theEmpress Frederick to arrange
matters has been fruitless. Prince Henry
has been practically banished on account
of the quarrel which arose in connection
with the Baltic canal, and he has been
given a year‘s leave of absence. Prince
Henry and his wife are now at’Balmoral
and Willprobably remain there a month.
They were going to Copenhagen in order
to attend the royal wedding. but it is now
probable that the emperor will send some
oue‘oise. Prince and Princess Henry of
Prussia are to visit the PriuCe and Prin-
cess of Wales next month and will-remain
in England until the .end of November.
They will then go to Italy, and Greece. "

A dispatch to . The Daily News from
Rome, published today, confirms the re«
port that a serious disagreement exists be-
tween Emperor William and Prince Henry
and adds:

“Not only the Germans but the foreign
diplomats cOmplain that the emperor is
Surrounded by courtiers, led by Count
Philip von Euleuberg and his four ‘broth-
ers, who flatter him into thinking himself
omnipotent. The German people trust
him less daily, fearing that in cane of war
he intends to follow his own designs, re-

gardless of advice.
