Prlngwho lives near where the box wu found Queer rumors are afloat about the affair Pring lives near Israel and hu told tbia story: about planting time in May someone came to my bourn and asked me sand get a box I got the box which had arrived at the Yalesville depot on an afternoon train and wu takes down to Mix's house by one of the teamsters I carried it and a satchel to tha Ackley place which has been vauant a long time" Pring uid ha got the wine colored coat from the stranger and that he had it all the time I Another story afloat yesterday wu thatlne cast wu fouad in the woods At any retell was found in the satchel Coroner Mix and Detective Leete left Wallingford yesterday afternoon an the 8:40 train north Still later developments point toward the speedy unravelling of the fot the mystery BAUM BERNSTEIN HOME CABO COKING Is Far as Ska Causa Camaalt la Canaan s4 ths attar la Rattle Tha special meeting of the Common Council last night to consider the horse railroad matter wu very short After referring to the Lamp committee petition for a gasoline lamp at the corner of Cooper and Meridian streets the report of the hone railroad committee wu taken from the table and adi pted Its provisions are follows: That the City Surveyor be authorized to give the Meriden Hone Railroad company the grade on which they may lay their tracks which shall be the present grade of the streets through which said company proposes to build its road provided that any change in grade or gutten made necessary to accommodate said railroad shall be made at the ex-oe of said railroad company and shall one in a manner satisfactory to the city That Mid railroad shall be laid in the center of the streets through which it passes provided that in case the tracks pass over or come in contact with any water sates they shall be varied a sufficient distance to allow tha Water Department free access te said water gates That the special committee of five shall be continued and with the Mayor and City Surveyor shall have power to decide all matters regarding the building of said railroad which may require action between the meetings of the Common Council and may make such changes in the above orders may be deemed necessary or expedient provided that the order tie substantially complied with Said one of the directors of the Horse Railroad company to-day: "Wa have not yet held a meeting to decide whether the road shall make a direct connection be tween Hanover and Pratt streets by running through Perkina street or even by going from Hanover street to Main ana east te Pratt street The matter will come up at a meeting to be held this week It is safe to uy however that such direct connection will be made there seems to be a popular demand for It" Now that tha Council ku given the road the requisite authority Contractor Hutchinson will go on at once to build it beginningwlth the main line through East and nest Main streets Elegant Stock of New Fall Baits and Overcoats

convenience BAUM 10 Palace Block CLOTHIERS AND TAILORS Southerner's Winter Garisn 68 EAST Yalesville people saw' a stranger who accompanied the box to Yalesville on the train He alighted there carrying in hia hand a valise which appeared to be very heavy This stranger after looking around awhile approached Mix's teamster and persuaded him to carry the box te a point near where he unloaded it The stranger then hired Pring'a man to carry the box to tha point near when the box was found telling him another man from Cheshire would meet him and take the hex The man did not meet him and he left the box little is lance from where it wu found For his services he received a dollar and a drink of whisky from a bottle exactly like the one found What afterwards became of (tha stranger no one knows and tha valise found is said to be the one he carried The theory now advanced ia that the box found ana the one carted by Mix's and Pring'a men are identical and that if any team wu to have met the stranger it did not do se and tha box wu hidden where it wu found The developments are sufficient anyway to warrant an attempt to find tha stranger and once found the rest it ia believed will be a comparatively easy tuk Young the Yalesville butcher nt whose slaughter house it wu at one time suspected thsfthe murder took place I wu in town to-day jand aald smongother thing that both Coroner Mix and Detective Leete were apparently In possession of still further facte in regard to the matter and he beiioved that fit a short time they would know whose body it wu that wu found WILL BOON EE OTZB

evening's Democratic conven tlon was mainly due to the contest lot the county delegatee It was Reynolds vs Tomlinson and Reynolds won a declaim victory It vh Just as well that ex-Repreaentetlve Hlgby and Col Bario representing Tomlinson and Reynolds re-fpectirely openly defined the issue because there was no use in trying to hide it Mr Higbywas quite eloquent in his praises of Milford's favorite son and but for Col telling little speech it is quite probable that enough of the labor element would hare followed Mr lead to defeat the Reynolds delegates As it was CoL Bario'i re marks solidified the Reynolds forces and settled the matter in his favor The state delegation it is said will be for Cleveland The congressional delegation contains at least three member who will endeavor to get the convention to endorse George Mansfield the labor candidate They will stand by the nominee who ever he is For senator the Meriden delegation will be solid for Dr 8 Davis of this city and he probably will be the nominee The contest between him and Mayor Doolittle for senatorial honors will be a very pretty one LET ITBOOX Now that the matter of grade is settled let the Horse Railroad Company folkide-cide to build the line from Hanover street to Pratt street through South Colony and Perkins streets and then push the work so that we can ride on the cars next winter The people are deeply interested in the project and will patronize the road so liberally that its success is assured from the start The representatives of the labor organizations believe that with Dr Davis they can carry the Sixth senatorial district Next Saturday the new one dollar silver certificates will be issued Well soon bid good by to the cart wheel dollar and hide it In the vaults It's a curious fact that only
