The, Republic for Protection.

An English newspaper, the Manches-
ter Courier, mournfully declares that
the free trade, Democracy in the United
titles is “marching to its doom,” and
with rare felicity of metuplmr, it adds
1111'.- ‘um only is the free trade millen-

TOOK HIS BODY.
Rev. Dr. Josenh Pullmamthe Noted
Bridgeport Patter, Sued for
Libel by Mile. May.
Called Her a Courtesan.
Rev. Dr. Joseph Pullman, oiBridge-
port, one of the best known clergymen
in the New York East Conference of
the Methodist church, was arrested last
night, on a body writ in which the di-
vine is charged with malicious libel
against Mile. June May, an actress.
City Sheriff Beck served the writ at
6:30 o’clock last night upon Dr. Pull-
man in default of property to attach.
Bonds were fixed at $25,500 and the
doctor’s friends begun to hustle around
to get the necessary amount Of- surety.
While his friends were attempting to
secure bonds the clergyman was con-
ducting his weekly prayer meeting.
Dr. Pullman is pastor of the First
Methodist church in that city-
On Sunday, Nov. 24:, Dr. Pullman in
one of his sermons took occasion to dis-
cuss the advance notices of Mlle. June
May. Among other things liesaid that
the notices ieferied to were" notices of
a. woman who was 11 brillant swell and a
Paris' mu courtesan. Mlle May has
come into the possession of a vast num-
ber of clippings from the various news-
pipcrs which published extracts from
and Comments upon Dr. Pullman’s ser-
mon.
Yesterday Arthur .I’tehiiu, advance
agent for Mlle. May and who is associa-
ted with Augustin Duly of New York,
come to Bridgeport and ult- discuss-
lng the matur with Attorneys Douglass
and Lynch, decided o brin2 suit for
333,000 damages for li b-' :1.
The compl lint charges that Dr. Pull—
man did with malice aforetlfough utter
a. libel in that he referred to the plain-
tifi' as a. brilliant swoll and 11 Parisian
Courtesan. Inasmuch as Mlle. May is
a married woman with two children
this statement is equiv..lent to a charge
of adultery and she feels libolled to the
extent of $325, 000.
Dr. Pullman is a spirited fighter. -It-
was mainly through his efforts some
years 11.20 that the city of New Britain
became a “no licenSc” town, and he
has been 11. powerful factir in' the Luv
and Order Work in Bridgeport.
In his sermon of Nov. 24 Dr. Pullman
was very careful not t 1 mention the
home of Mlle. May but it is stated that
no one in the congregation was at a loss
to know to whom he referred. The
lnwyers who were consulted yesterday
looked into the matter and came to the
conclusion that he had been sufficiently

to meet with favor and as being the only
feasible one for reorganization which
was an assessment of $7.50 per share
the money to be used in taking up
the receiver’s certificate, and gave it
as the general opinion that a. number of
the leading stockholders would sub-
scribe enough more to take up the
mortgage held by the Gaslight com-
pany against the company. It now

Have Broken Ground.
A gang of about seventy -five men in
the employ of the Norwalk Street Ruil'
way company broke ground on East
avenue, near the Charles 0. C. Betts
place, this morning, for the company’s
proposed extension of its tracks to
Cranbury.
There is considerable frost in the
ground making it hind digging, and up
to noon to-day the digging lied pro-
gressed only as far its the Baptist
church.
Railroad ties, stringers, etc., are be-
ing carted to points along the line, and
it looks as if the company meant busi-
ness and will continue to lay its tracks
as long as the weather permits.
It will not be a double track road its
entire length, but there will be several
long turnouts and the result to be
reached will be nearly as satisfatitory as,
though there were double trucks.
The completion of the line will be
hailed with delight by the people of
Cranbury. ’ .

Superintendent John H; Hoyt of the
Norwalk Fire alarm system denies the
truth of the published statement that.
Norwalk’s fire alarm boxes are almost

system was adopted in this city has it
been in as good order as now, and he
is confident that if any one of the boxes
including the five Steven’s boxes in
which he does not have the greatest of
confidence, was pulled, a correct alarm
would sound on the big bell at the Town
