To night was held one of the3iveliest Bepnblican town conventions held iu this place for a great while. The Knights of Labor sought to run the convention, but were overmatched and the old line Republicans nominated a straight ticket. They nominated Charles D. Barnes for town clerk, Charles Hotehkissfor first selectman and Justin M. Lewis for second selectman." This was after a struggle in which the K.

of L. men sought for thd supremacy. Then came another stiff contest to nominate the rest of the ticket. The Republican proposed to leave it with a committee of eleven, one from each of the school districts. This the Knights vigorously opposed, desiring to centralize the delegation so that the Knights of Labor element would have more power in the case.

The Republicans insisted on the representation by school districts and carried the point. The committee was appointed and retired to make up a tioket. A Democratic committeeman attempted to have a voice in the convention. There were 214 persons present at the meeting.

Football Practice The Tennis Clnb Professor Beebe much Improved. About two hundred and seventy-five have joined the Co-operative association up to date and more are being added. The sales at the association's store have largely exceeded those up to the same date last fall. Football practice was engaged in for the second time this season yesterday afternoon at the Yale Field. The men have not yet got into shape after the long summer's rest and it is yet too early to judge of their improvement or deterioration since last fall.

The new players appear similar to those of bypone years at the same early date. There are twenty men in the freshman class from St, Paul's school, Concord, N. H. Entries for the fall tournament of the Tennis club are now being received. The first games occur Wednesday.

Professor Beebe is said to be improving, but will not be able to resume teaching until after the Christmas vacation. The optional system is proving expensive to the undergraduates owing to the number and size of the text books used, many of them costing four or five dollars. 9IINISTERS' ASSOCIATION. Action on the Death of Rev Austin Putnam. At the ministers' meeting held yesterday suitable action was taken regarding the death of Bev.

Austin Putnam, of Whitneyville. Very feeling remarks were made in honor of the deceased gentleman and revered pastor, who for over half a century had been identified with the Congregational denomination and with Congregationalism in Connecticut. His earnest work and usefulness, his zeal and piety, his culture and his admirable traits of character were Bpoken of by one and another of his brethren in the ministerial work. The following were appointed a committee with discretionary powers to take suitable action in behalf of the Ministers' association: Bev. Dr.

Twitchell, Bev. Dr. Todd, Bev. Dr. Samson of Calvary Baptist church and Bev.

Mr. Dillingham. Bev. Dr. Todd and Bev.

Dr. Twitchell, as representatives of the association, visited the widow of the deceased yesterday to tender the services of themselves and associates in any way that might be desired with regard to the funeral. A large delegation of the clergy will attend to suitably honor the memory of one who had so long and so worthily honored the master in the ministerial calling. The deceased clergyman, though in his 78th year, was very active for one of his years and had the appearance of a man much younger. REVENUE LAW VIOLATIONS.

This Time In airfield Conner Hearing Before Vnlted States Commissioner Woodward of Norwalk. Nobwalk, Sept. 27. This flourishing old town has seldom seen such a gathering of government officers as appeared here this morning. The early morning trains brought United States Marshal Bates of Preston and his deputy, Captain Lovejoy of New Haven, United States Attorney Lewis E.

Stanton of Hartford, Collector Troup of New Haven and Deputy Collectors Harty of Bridgeport and Adam of Noith Canaan. Deputy Marshal Lovejoy had a warrant to serve on Jeremiah Donovan, a wholesale liquor dealer of South Norwalk, who was charged with a violation of the internal revenue laws in that he did not keep his books of sales made in accordance with the law in such case made and provided. Mr. Donovan was arrested and taken before Commissioner A. B.

Woodward, who placed the accused under bonds of $300 to appear on Saturday, Ootober 9, at 11 a. m. Then came the hearing In the case of the United States against Henry Whit-lock, William Bartram, James Miller.Michael Flood and Charles Lovell, of Bedding, and George S. Hull, of Danbury. The first named was charged with manufacturing and selling cigars without having paid the special tax, and the others for buying cigars of Whit-lock and others in bulk and packing then iu empty cigar boxes that had once been used, and selling the same, thereby defrauding the government ont of its legitimate revenue.

The accused were tried together, as their offenses were in fact connected, in that Whit-lock manufactured the cigars and the other parties bought them knowing that the tax had not been paid. District Attorney Stanton represented the government and Attorney A. D. Paige, of Danbury and ex-Sheriff Thomas S. Sanford of Bedding appeared for the accused.

The principal witnesses for the government were the revenue officers who detailed at length their investigations into the frauds committed. Whit-lock acknowledged to manufacturing the cigars and Bartram did not deny buying them. The result of the hearing was that Whitlock, Bartram and Hull were all bound over to the district court and the cases of the others were continued. There has been a good deal of "crooked" work going on in the State reoently which Collector Troup is bound to break np at all hazards; these being only a few of the revenue law violations which are to receive the attention of the proper authorities at an early day. DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION.

The Delegates Gathering; Cleveland's Nomination for Governor a Foregone Conclusion Ths Rest of the Ticket Very Uncertain Hon. A. E. Burr for Chairman or the Convention County Caucuses. The afternoon trains yesterday from different sections of the State brought their full quota of delegates to the Democratio State convention which meets iu the New Haven Opera House this morning at 11 o'clock.

The counties most largely repre sented were those the most remote, whose delegates could not reach here this morning. Hartford county was represented in force and the delegation immediately on their arrival commenced their canvass for Hon. E. S. Cleveland for Governor.

The Tontine hotel was the headquarters for the "unterrified," and while all could not be accommodated those who "booked" at other hotels at once hurried to the Tontine, and at early evening the corridors were crowded with delegates and buttonholing was the order of the day. "Cleveland," "Cleveland" could be heard on every side and in fact no other name was mentioned for the head of the ticket. For Lieutenant Governor there seemed to be more division of opinion, the principal names mentioned being Senator Alsop of Middletown and General E. E. Bradley of Orange.

For Secretary of State the delegates were apparently all at sea, although the name of Hon. William H. Law, of this city, seemed to meet with more favor than any other. Mr. Mahan of New London, however, has a strong backing from his section of the State, and Edmund Zacher was spoken of favorably by many.

W. W. Skiddy, of Fairfield county, seemed to have the inside for treasurer while Mr. Allen, of Windham county, was favorably mentioned for comptroller. All of the counties held caucuses during the evening, but most of them adjourned withont coming to any decided action.

Hartford county of course decided to present the name of Mr. Cleveland for Governor, and although they took no action regarding second place, it was understood that they were ready to throw their strength for General E. E. Bradley if New Haven county so desired. New Haven county tried to hold a caucus in Turn hall and elected Col.

J. H. Baird of Meriden for chairman and Grove J. Tuttle of Kast Haven for secretary. A roll call revealed the fact that pnly thirty delegates out of sixty-six were present and a recess of fifteen minutes was taken in the hope that other delegates would arrive sufficient to give them a working majority.

They did not show up, however, and the caucus finally adjourned until nine o'clock this morning at the same place, when it is hoped that a quorum will be present and that an expression of opinion may be obtained as to the wishes of the county. Of course, if it is decided to ui-ge the nomination of General Bradley for Lieutenant Governor that will shut out Mr. Law for Secretary of State, as two gentlemen on the ticket from the 3ame county is out of the question. As it looked last night a majority of those present were the friends of Mr. Law, and it this holds true in fall caucus he will be the county's choice for representative on the State ticket.

The Litchfield county delegation at their caucus at the Elliott House discussed Judge Granger's name for the head of the ticket, and if there was any show for his nomination by the committee they would present his name, and may do so in any event. They, however, did not decide to do so last night, leaving the matter to be further considered this morning. If they conclude that there is no show for the judge they will throw their fuU strength for Cleveland. The Fairfield county delegation have a candidate for Governor in the person of Hon. J.

W. Hyatt, of Norwalk, whom they think would just fill the bill. Although they did not ally decide to present that gentle man's name, yet under "certain contmeen- cies" they may do so with some hope of success. In any event they will support W. W.

Skiddy for treasurer and lean strongly toward B. F. Mahan, of New London, for Secretary of State. Middlesex county names its ticket in the following order: Cleveland, Alsop, Mahan, Skiddy and Allen. They think this a win ning card and one that will draw largely from the workingmen's vote and perhaps defeat the Bepnblican ticket headed by Mr.

Lounsbury. Tolland county seemed to be a unit tor Cleveland, while New London and Windham were somewhat divided. In the caucus of the Htter county were eight votes for Cleveland and fifteen scattering, showing that they were far from being united. Their preferences as expressed were for Skiddy for treasurer and Allen for comptroller, although Griswold of Stafford Springs was mentioned favorably by some for the latter position. The State central committee met in toe Jeffersonian club rooms at 9:80 o'clock and after full deliberation agreed to name Hon.

Alfred E. Burr, of the Hartford Times, for temporary chairman, it being understood that the committee on permanent organization will present the same gentleman's name for permanent chairman of the convention. It is understood that the lower floor of the opera house will be reserved exclusively for delegates to-day, while the galleries will be thrown open to the general public.

The Lees And Arms of the Victim Found at Last Other Important Clews The mysterious Chleaaroan. Wallingford people are once more excited over the shoe box mystery, and it now looks not improbable that the murders may be brought to justice at some time in the near future. On Sunday night David Maylord.a farmer living near the place where the shoe box containing the trunk of the murdered man was found, while after his cows came across a large bundle wrapped in tarred paper in the middle of his cow pasture. As he approached the bundle he noticed a stench coming from it, and decided to investigate the matter. He gave the bundje a kick and it came open, and showed a pair of decayed arms and legs which had evidently been torn or cut from some body.

They were partly rolled in a piece of old furniture sacking, and Mr. Maylord after recovering from his fright picked np the decomposed limbs and brought them to Wallingford where he turned them over to Constable Bod Austin, who will save them for Coroner Mix's investigation. That they are the limbs of the man found in the shoe box is not to be doubted, and it is expected that the head will soon be found, and the mystery as. to who the murdered man was solved. Another important clue is that a man named Pring, of Yalesville.

now recollects that he took the shoe box from the Yalesville depot to a spot near where it was found in the woods. He says that the man who hired him to cart the box was a stranger and had a disabled hand and said he was from Chicago. He was in town a few days later and had with him a valise that had on it a trademark of a Chicago firm. It is stated that the man has been traced to Chicago and that Coroner Mix is working up this clue. The coroner could not be found last evening and he was probably working up this case.

OBITUARY. Death of Mr. Stephen Rowe Another of Fair Haven's Old Residents. The following is from the pen of a prominent Fair Haven citizen in tribute to the memory of Mr. Stephen Bowe: Bobotjoh of Faib Havin East, Sept.

27. In the "passing away" of Stephen Bowe, which occurred this morning a few moments past 3 o'clock at his home on North Quinnipiac street at the advanced age of four score and one years, the above named street has lost nearly its last old to the "manor born" resident, this community one of its most highly esteemed citizens and the church militant one of its most consistent, active and "enduring to the end" members. The first portion of Mr. Bowe's business lite was spent as a mariner in the Connecticut river freighting trade and in the coasting trade as well. The last and longest portion of his business life, until his health failed him in the year 1874, was spent in the prosecution of the oyster business in company with his father, the late Captain Daniel Bowe, and his only surviving Drotner, xsarney rcowe, Jisq.

Besides a widow and two sons Mr. Bowe leaves three daughters to mourn his loss, to wit: Mrs. Annie fti. Miller, Mrs. Lottie J.

it. Thompson, wife of George N. Thompson, ana Mrs. n-ruma uray, wire of He v. John Gray, all of whom should find consola tion in the fact that their loss is his sternal gain.

Wood bridge Fair To-morrow. To-morrow, if a pleasant day, will be held the twenty-eighth annual Woodbridge and Bethany fair on the fair grounds in Wood-bridge. Every effort is being made to have this the most successful fair ever given there and a large number of people from this city will probably attend. Stages will leave Westville for the fair grounds at frequent intervals for the accommodation of people going from this city. If the day proves to be a rainy one the fair will be held the first pleasant day.

Entertainments. PAT ROONET COMPANV. On Thursday evening at the New Haven Opera House Pat Booney and the New York Star Comedy company will appear in the three-act comedy entitled "Asana Banad." During the play the famous Booney special ties will be introduced. Bunnell's grand opera house. A large audience witnessed "Without a Home" as presented by the Gray Stephens company at this opera house last evening.

The company is a good one and the audience were well satisfied with the play, in which the trained dogs proved an important feature. "Without a Home" will be produced the first part of the week and "Saved From the Storm" Friday and Saturday. AMERICAN THEATER. Another splendid specialty company opened at this house last evening and gave an entertainment well in keeping with the excellent one that preceded it. A pleasing first part introduced the performers, and in the olio that followed some rst-class special ties were shown.

The three iranklins in their novelty act "Irish Pastimes" made a great hit and were repeatedlv and enthusi astically encored. Talbot and Mack did some good eccentric dancing and Barry and Emerson mystified the audience with an amusing cabinet mystery. Miss Ada Clifton sang well and Miss Lou Sanford, the perennial tavonte, renewed her triumphs or the past. There is not a weak feature in the whole show and if crowded houses are not the rule during the week it will not be for want of an attractive programme. THE SHADOWS OF A GREAT CITY.

This charming American drama was presented last night for the first time this season and the third season of its produc tion at the New Haven Opera House. It met with the same warm reception which has always been accorded it. The familiar faces of Annie Ward Tiff anv, George Edison, H. W. Herman, W.

W. Allen and Mr. Burton in the respective parts of Biddy Bonan, Jim Farren, George Benson, Abe Nathans and Mr. Arkwright obtained an expression of recognition from the audience as they severally appeared that placed them on the list of old and valued acquaintances. Two new faces rppeared, Miss Helen Band as Helen Standish, and W.

S. Harkins as Tom Cooper, both of which characters found abler representatives than we have seen in these parts heretofore. The scenery has all been re painted and, indeed, the whole performance is superior to any former production, mere will be a special matinee given and with the Tuesday and Wednesday nights the engagement this Beason will be concluded. TALKED ABOUT. On Friday and Saturday evenings and Saturday afternoon at the New Haven Opera House the ideal artiste Miss Viola Allen will appear as Florell in W.

C. Cowpert new comedy-drama "Talked About." The Phila delphia savs: Or the performance notn- ing but praise can be said. Miss Allen, who has played important roles in the legitimate drama, looked" sweet and beautiful as the hunted girl and displayed marked power in one or two instances where opportunity is af forded. Mr. Leslie Allen played the old parson not only with a conscientiousness which was to be expected from so painstak ing and experienced an actor, but also with an unctious humor which was scarcely so characteristic.

The honors of the evening fell most surely, perhaps, on Mr. D. G. Longworth as the hero, "Oris Cross." The wit or tne part ieu irom ura upa wasiiy, ajjujr and most tellingly, and its occasional flip-pantness was disguised by the manner in which he made the various points.
