The whole question will be discussed at the meeting of the union next Tuesday even- THE MONTH WAS COLDER THAN NORMAL "Hold Chatunooga at all hazards I will be there as soon as possible." Thomas answered promptly, "I will hold the town till we starve," and it Is to the very highest credit of his Cumberland army that there was no murmuring even at this hard condition. October 21 1 visited General Stevenson at Alabama, a small town situated back along the railroad, ten miles distant from my headquarters, and during the Interview Hooker told me that the already famous General Grant was on the train coming south from Nashville. Hooker had made arrangements to receive the Kfiiera! and have him conducted to his own quarters. Imagine my surprise when I saw him. He had for some time been before the public, the successful commander in important battles.

Stilvon Guerra was a much surprised man when he called at the office of the county commissioners yesterday morning and learned that the liquor license which stood in his name had been transferred to Fernando Fi'mgo and that the commissioners had given permission to Fiengo to remove the license from No. 70 Temple street, wh're Guerra formerly conducted a saloon, to No. 138 Front etreet.

Fiengo is enjoying all the privileges of the license. The license was removed from Temple street to Front street on Wednosday and Guerra learned of it yesterday morning. He said that he did not sell the license to Fiengo and that Fiengo had no authority to have the license transferred to himself or to remove it from the saloon at No. 70 Temple street. When he took out the license he said that the Aetna Brewing Company gave him $100 towards the license fee and that in all he owed the brewing company about $200.

Kdward Glazier of this city was foitnei ly nu agent of Mr. DoWolf's and ho took the diamonds and rings, which were of the value of about $600. and pledged them with Mr.

Sharp for a loan of $240. Glazier was arrested for embezzlement. The property was delivered by Mr. Sharp to the police, to be used as evidence against Glazier. In the police court Glazier was held for the superior court and in the latter court ho pleaded guilty and was sentenced to Jail.

While the jewelry was in the possession of Chief Ryan Mr. DeWolf replevined it and the question as to whether Mr. De-Wolf or Mr. Sharp was entitled to it would have been tried before a Jury in the court of common pleas next Tuesday, but for the settlement of the suit. The terms of settlement are that Mr.

DeWolf keeps the property, but il was said that he paid Mr. Sharp a sum of money, much less than the amount Sharp advanced to Glazier. The weather during the past month much of him. and several virulent sheets much against him; and so. Judging by the account.

Grant, knowing Hooker's aspirations, evidently look this occasion to assert himself. Ho never left necessity for gaining a proper ascendancy over subordinate generals, where it was likely to be questioned, to a second interview. Yet he manifested only a quiet firmness. Declining Hooker's hospitality, Grant and his staff went Instead to General Howard's headquarters. Speaking of his headquarters.

Two formerly union barber simps have just had their union cards taken away by the li.irbcrs' Union for violating the agreement of keeping closed all day holidays, unless the day happens to be Saturdaj or Monday, when shops may remain open until noun. Thanksgiving was the first holiday under this rule, which was adopted a few weeks ago.

Formerly union shops were allowed to remain open on holidays until noon and it is claimed that C. O. Keohstodt of No. 239 Iiwn ncc street and Steve A. Carroll of No.

Mr. Havls said: "I don't think that tho majority of the barbers want to keep open half on holidays. some reason or other business is not so good that way as it is when shops close all day but keep open until 11 o'clock the night before Mr.

Carroll and Mr. liechstedi can get their cards back by paying a fine which 1 i 1 be imposed at the meeting of the union next week. The line is generally $5 but something may be added. In order to see how the rule was being observed Thanksgiving I made a trip around town on my wheel and found ail the shops closed all hough one of the suspended barbers had told me that many were open." One of the suspended barbers says that eorlain shops remained open but have not been molested by the union. These shops are at the Heubloln and the American hotels.

Other barbers, including the officers of the union, deny that these shops were open. They was fairly good for November, though somewhat cold for the season. The government weather bureau has no back records at Hartford to make comparisons, but estimating from records of other points in Connecticut the mean temperature for the month was considerably below normal.

General Hr.ward gave many personal reminiscences of the great Union leader, whom he had an opportunity to foe close at hand in the campaigns in which he was one of the generals just under Grant.

The lecture was listened to by the members of the two Grand Army posts, many Trinity students and hundreds of others, who completely rilled the hall. The college glee club sang 'Neath the Kims of Our Dear Old Trinity" before th'' lecture and at the end the audience, sang "America."

In a brilliant and vivid manner the lecturer described the battle of Chattanooga the sunnosed review and drill watched by the Confederates and then the sudden charge by the Northern troops, then the combat, then the victory.

Speaking of Grant's conduct during this battle General Howard said: "In this brief combat I was able to observe the perfect self-possession, the lmperturable face of our leader.
