POLITICAL SKELETON RATTLED IN NEW YORK. Record of William M. Ivins in an Al most Forgotten Campaign Dug Up. New York. Oct. 17. Taken from the graveyard of forgotten campaigns, a political skeleton, covered with the dust of twenty-three years, was rat tled in New York tonight, adding in tensity to the three-cornered struggle for the mayor's- chair of greater New York between William J. Gaynor, dem ocratic, William R. Hearst, independ ent, and Otto T. Bannard, republican. The nominees rested today and tonight but the fight centering around Hearst produced a new issue of the campaign the political record of William M. Ivins, Hearst's ardent republican sup porter, albeit his opponent four years ago. This fresh phase- came in the form of a statement issued tonight by Henry George, Jr., son and biogra pher of the famous single-taxer, who charges in effect that Ivins went to his father in 18S6 and offered him inducements to withdraw from the mayoralty race against WMliam R. Grace. As a matter of history, Mr. George refused to be sidetracked and entered the contest only to meet de feat. In a formal statement given out last niirht. Ivins. apparently expecting an attack on his alleged connection with the George-Grace campaign, denied that he ever made any offer to Henry George to retire. As .opposed to this, Henry George, Jr., says tonight: "In his prepared statement, publish ed in the newspapers this morning. Mr. William M Ivins denies a story that in behalf of Richard Croker he of fered to Henry George, my father, $1'5.000 to withdraw from the mayoral ty contest in 1S86. "In response to a statement made in the newspapers, by Abram S. Hew itt, relative to the 188S campaign, my father toward the close of the 1897 campaign, and just a few days before bis death, issued a statement which, with the attendant circumstances, may be found on pages 462-3 of 'The Life of Henry George' by me. The state ment is as follows: Before my nomination had for mally taken place (in 18S6) I received a request from Mr. William M. Ivins. then chamberlain of the city, and a close political-friend and representa tive of Mr. Grace, to privately meet him. I did so at Seighorjner'g on i.a fayette place. We sat down in a. pri vate room, unattended, and smoked some cigars together. Mr. Ivins insisted- -that I eonld not- possibly tie elected mayor of New York, no matter how many people might vote for me; that the men who voted knew noth ing of the real forces that domtnated New York. He said that I could not possibly be counted In. He offered on behalf of Tammany hall and the coun ty democracy that if I would refuse the nomination for mayor they would yTVun me for congress, select a city dis trict in which nomination was equiva lent to election: that I should be at no expense whatever, -but might go to Europe or. anywhere I willed, and when I came back should receive a certificate of election to the house of I representatives. I said to him finally: "You tell me I cannot possibly get the 6fflce. Why, then, if I cannot possi bly get the office, do you want me to withdraw?" His reply was: "You can not get elected, but your running will raise hell." I said: "You have relieved me of embarrassment. I do not want the responsibility and the work of the office of the mayor of New York, but I do want to raise hell. I am decided and will run." Ivins had made no reply to the George statement late tonight but it is expected that he will 'do so later. As a supporter of Hearst he has been bitterly attackinf Gaynor throughout the campaign. Ivins' Reply .to George. In reply to Henry George. Jr.. Ivins Issued the following statement late to night: "The quotation which Mr. Henry George, Jr., mm- make3 is, if my recol lection serves, taken from the gentle man's life of his father. My own mem ory Is in no respect faulty with regard to my relations with JJenry George, Sr., but that is no issue in the present campaign. "In 1897 I denied that I had ever of fered Mr. George a nomination in be half of Tammany Hall, and I also de nied that any suoh conversation as that here given took place between us; I still deny it. Mr. George is dead, and I care to say nothing further of the matter. Even the courts will not per mit one to testify to a conversation with parties deceased. "It will be noted that Mr. George does not repeat the accusation which was made yesterday, that I attempted to bribe his father." Canadian Pacific Train Struck Herd of Cattle. Montreal.

The red flag was raised1 in London this afternoon and a large mob moved upon the Spanish embassy to make a demonstration of its disapproval of the execution of Prof. Francisco Ferrer, the convicted revolutionist, at Barcelona a few days ago. Several bodies of police were stationed at the approaches to the em bassy and they drove off the crowds In their usual bloodless effectual way. But considerable excitement and un easiness pervaded the neighborhood. The groans and hootings were plainly heard in the embassy atid at Bucking ham palace near by. No One Seriously Injured. No' one was injured seriously, al though the mounted police rode against the crowds and scattered them several times. The trouble began with' a mass meotlng in Trafalgar square which was orjtcnized Dy several socialist and labor bf files. Several hundred of the mem bers of these organizatk-ns marched to the square carrying red flags draped with crepe and bearing Inscriptions de nouncing King: Alfonso. A black bor dered banner was raised against the Nelson column with big t letters that could be read from afar: "To hell with the murderer Alfonso." Expulsion of Spanish Ambassador De manded. After 3.

Emma Goldman and Her Red Follow arc Meet in Naw York. New York. Oct. 17. Aroused by the fiery apeech of Emma Golrfmanr. whose anarchistic tendencies have earned for her the title. "Queen of the Reds," one thousand men and women, so clalista, anarchists and other radicals, packed an East Side hall today, and, unmolested by the police, adopted res olutions denouncing the execution of Francisco Ferrer, the Spanish revolu tionist. "Alfonso, the assassin," was uttered in three languages, English, Spanish and French, as the successive speakers attacked the Spanish mon arch, and hinted that revenge waa to come. Emma Goldman Chief Speaker. Emma Goldman, who was the chief speaker, sought to draw a parallel be tween the case of Ferrer and those of Mover. Haywood and Petti-bone, of the Western Federation of Miners. At the conclusion of the meeting, it was announced that a more compre hensive gathering will be held at Car negie hall on Tuesday night. Resolutions Adopted. Tlie resolutions adopted today recite in part: "The murder of Ferrer was commit ted by the unholy trinity Church, Money and Government.. This trinity revenged itself because Ferrer insti gated free anti-clerical schools where in the results of Independent science and pedagogy were taught. "This meet'-- denounces the mur der as oe of the worst and most cow ardly crimes ever committed under the disguise of the law and expresses its sincerest sympathy and solidarity with the thousands of fighters for freedom who still struggle in the clutches of the Spanish Inquisition." Although denounced by the resolu tions, the death of Ferrer was hailed by Emma Goldman as the cause for rejoicing rather than of mourning. "I am not here to mourn but to celebrate Ferrer's death." she cried, "in this age of greed, cowardice and indifference we must rejoice that there was a man like Ferrer who had rather die than live like a dog. If I be lieved that the American workman had enough revolutionary spirit, I would ask them to follow the exam ples of France and Italy, go, on a general strike, and declare to1 their bosses their strength, in honor of Fer rer." Other Speakers. Emma Goldman was the last speak er. Among others who aroused the crowd were Alexander Berkman. her Associate, who served time for shoot ing H. C. Frlck, and Arthur Bullard, who knew Ferrer in France. Thirty policemen were on duty in the hall, 'but no arrests were made. DEMONSTRATIONS ELSEWHERE.

Vandervilt. a director, figured while returning from an Iny spection of the company's lines, oc curred at Rhlnecliff-on-the-Hudsin river, about twenty miles north of heru, early today. One passenger, New- York peddler, was killed and ten were Injured, none seriously. Paddlsr Hurled Through Window and Crushed to Death. The train was the third section of thv w York express (No. 36) from the west, due in New York at 7.30 o'clock in the morning. Just south of the Rhlneclift station, at 4.30 o'clock, the eight cara of the train were thrown from the track by a broken rail. Messrs. Newman. Brown and Vander bilt. who were asleep in the rear car. "Idle Hour." were almost shaken from their berths and they hurriedly dress ed to learn the extent of the accident. Th"y found that the smoker and one Of the day couches had rolled over on their sidea and that James Krakoskl. a peddler. 21 years old, of 79 Kldridge street.

The Tiv erton countryside, since last Monday, when various dismembered portions of a young woman's body, except the head, have been found, was the ob jective point today of an Influx of hun dreds of milt operatives from this city, who searched for the missing head. But their day-long hunt was without result. The beating of bushes and thickets revealed no hidden object of interest. After today's failure, the po lice believe that the head the one positive means of Identification of the mutilated body lies at the bottom of Mount Hope bay. While parents and relatives of Miss St. Jean slate thetr belief that the body la hern, an acquaintance of the missing girl has brought out strong points apainst this theory. Tiie identification of the clotlu found several days ago several miles from the body, was the principal fsc tor in the orglnal supposition that the body was Miss St. Jean's. It is still posrible that the body Is that of another person. The finding of the head.- unless that much sought for member is very far advanced In de composition, would definitely decide the identity of the victim and give the police a firm basis for their case. Should the head be found and prove the body to be that of another girl than Miss St. Jean, the fabric of the police against the two men now being held must necessarily become very thin. That suppositions may greatly err Is shown In the case of Miss Orace Ed wards, who was originally thought to be the' victim. That young woman has been located at Pittsburg, Pa., whVre formerlv she lived. Meanwhile. "Prof." Frank Hill and Wilfrid Thibeault spent their Sunday In cells at police headquarter and will remain there at least until the ques tion of their connection with the mur der ia heard in court on October 25, ono week from tomorrow.

Salisbury and Son of Moos up Found by Special Game -Warden Pease Fined $83 and $25. Charles B. Salisbury and his" son, Lester, a minor, both of Moosup, were found guilty and fined $83 and J25, re spectively, for unlawfully having an excessive number of partridge and woodcock in their possession after a hearing in a justice court in Central Village Saturday afternoon. Attorney Charles L. Torrey of Putnam acted as justice. Deputy Judge John H. Barnes of the Norwich city court acting as prosecutor and. Attorney Donald G., Perkins ot Norwich as counsel for thj3i defendant. No defensive evidence was submitted at the hearing, and an ap peal was taken to the superior court. E. K. Salisbury furnished ihe bond of $100. The hearing was held in the town hail and was attended by nearly 300 people. Canterbury Man Sold the Game. The Sullsburys were brought into. court as the result of the activity., of; E. Linn Pease, a special game protec tor of Thompsonville. It appears that Pease, In the guise of a hunter, came to Canterbury last Wednesday, hunted with a Louis Greenway of that place, whose father acted as host to Pease during his stay, a.id learned that young Greenway had previously and waa to deliver birds to Salisbury. Pease bought the birds from Greenway before the latter became aware of his true identity and the nature of his mission, and in the course of events agreed 'to allow Pease to go with him to Moosup, when other birds were to be delivered on Friday.- It appears that Greenway had 20 partridge and three woodcock In a bag when he entered the Salisbury place, and after depositing- them on the floor left there. Salisbury picked the bag up and started with It for the cella-r. Then Pease got busy, but when he attempted to secure the bag the elder Salisbury interfered. Pease recovered the birds, however, and the arrest followed. LIFE PERHAPS LOST.' Odor of Burning Human Flesh When Barn on Danielson Estate Was De stroyed by Fire Sunday Night. A life may have been lost in a fire ta't tntallv destroyed tho barn on the Edward Danielson estate-near West tielil cemetery about 11 o'clock Sunday night. An odor like burning flesh came strongly to the nostrils of the few peo ple that' were able to reach the scene before .the flaming structure fell in with a crash. The house on the prem ises has "been unoccupied for a long time and the barn has been a lodging place for tramps, who are believed to be responsible for Ihe fire and maybe Putnam for the death of one oV their number. The ruins will be searched today to determine this belief. There was no livestock In the barn, a fact which strengthens the belief that the odor of burning flesh was that of a human being The arn was filled with hay and farming implements, the property of Thomas O. Shea, who lived on the John Williams farm near Dayville Four Corners. The barn was owned by the heirs of Edward Danielson. Whether the property was insured could not be learned Sunday evening. No alarm was given, as the fire was outside the bor ough limits. Moved to Fir Station. Rattler Hook and Ladder company has moved its truck from the old bor ough hall building, on Water street.

They are badly in need of a job, for they had no place to sleep last night except the police station, and tneir breakfast was paid for by a sub scription taken up among the reserves at the West Thirtieth street station. The two were taken to Lieut. Thom as Daly early last nijht'by Policeman Wertheimer, and the younger spake thus: "If you please, your worship. I am Arthur Sherbourne, 18 years old, and this is my brother, Eugene, 21. We hall from the province of Quebec. We've been working on a farm ip there for five years, sir. y "We arrived here today. Tonight about 6 o'clock we were standing at Broadway and TWrty-first street when a fine looking gentleman walks across the road and says to a man close by: 'Say, how would you like to get a good job?' "'I have a job,' replica the other chap. "Eugene and' I, sir, pricks up our ears at this and I says to him we would like Jobs and ho offers us $20 a week each. Then the gentleman says he is going to hustle us up to the Grand Central depot and take us to a village In Connecticut state called Hartford. There he said he would put us to work in"his motor car shop. "'Have you any money?' the gentle man asks next. "I tell him I have $60 and Eugene has $25. Then he suggests it will be best for, us to give him this money to take care of until we have worked long enough to open -a bank account. He says he will put it in two envelope.? and seal them. We give him the money and he goes into the Gilsey house to get the envelopes. 'Stay right where you at!,' he says. 'Don't move. You might get lost.' "We stand right there, sir, for three quarters of an hour, and he didn't come back." Dr. Neil Macphatter of No. 249 Madi son avenue, president of the Canadian cluib, heard of the plight of the youths and sent word to the station that Eu gene and Arthur should call on him this morning, when he would try to get them a real job.

If you have not ordered one, fill out tha cou pon printed elsewhere and mail to the "Business Manager of The Bulle tin, Norwich, Conn." BARRlLL'S HONESTY. That President Hubbard of the New Tork Arctic club should venture over his own signature' to endorse Edward N. Barrill as an honest man, Bhows how blind a partisan he has become. If wa have read Edward N. Barrill's affida'lt making out that Dr. Cook is a gross Impostor, correctly, he there in admits that he is just as honest as ha says Dr. Cook Is. He admits un der oath that in consideration of the promise of an extra check for $200 he Joined Dr. Cook In hjmbugging the public, made false entries In his diary and crossed out correct observations to make them false. And President Hubbard tells the public through the New York Times that Mr. Barrill has "wide repute as an honest mountain eer." He may have had, but this at tempt on his part to reveal the char acter of Dr. Cook has shown up his character and warrants the suspicion that a good sized check would have prompted him to reverse his action without regard to Its effect upon his reputation. If Dr. Cook Is the scoundrel his en emies are trying to make him out to foe, there Is no doubt but he will go down In public esteem to a point be low zero. It Is up to him to show that ha is being grossly lied about and that his achievements are what he claims them to be. Climbing Mt. Mc Klnley again proves nothing; but the recovery of documents left there be fore In the presence of credible wit nesses might. Dr. Cook has behaved himself well. The evidence against him does not appear to be very formidable it is all tainted with jealousy and spite, and has, in consequence, failed to make a deep Impression. President Hubbard ought to be able to see that Edward N. Barrill, by his own statement, Is a faker and does not hesitate to do wicked things for money. INCREASED TAXES. The levy of a small state tax has led to an increase of the taxes in most of the cities and towns in the state, and the taxpayers are protesting, as thc-'y always do when the tax is made two or three mills heavier. New Ha ven's tax has been increased 2 3-4 mills and the taxpayers are demand ing of the aldermen that a reduction shall be made. The Palladium of that city says: "There Is, quite naturally, consider able restlessness on the part of the taxpayers, over the increase In the tax rate from 14 2-4 to 17 1-2 mills, and by the exercising of its authority the board of aldermen has hopes of ap peaslng the taxpayers by so further applying the pruning knife to the 1910 estimates that the rate of taxation may be reduced. It will attempt to do this after a public hearing on the estimates Monday night, that is, if at the meeting there Is asserted any clamor at all by the taxpayers for a reduction. The board of finance which fixed the tax rate, subject to the ap proval of the board of aldermen, la bored faithfully and skilfully on the 1910 budget. The taxpayers knew at the time that the' board of finance waa confronted- with a hard problem be cause both a county and a state tax Imposed by tho last session of the general assembly would have to "be provided for. Both were obligations which could not be avoided and had not the board been extremely cautious and conservative in allotting funds to the various city departments a still higher rate than 17 1-2 mills would have been imposed. It is hayd to fee herein the estimates can be so re duced by the board of aldermen that any appreciable reduction can be brought about in the tax rate." We all know that 17 1-2 mills here would cause a feeling of pleasure In stead of pain. New Haven doesn't know she is really living on Easy treat. aWiima!MWfcal JWiilai WaUli HEEDLESS PERSISTENCE. The board of equalization of this state, like the state police. Is founded upon inefficiency. If the boards of assessors had a single standard of pro cedure, the value of property would not varyso upon the grand lists of the towns. A few towns tax on the full vnluation, and a great many claim to levy the tax upon 75 per cent, of the real value of the property, tut there is not a town probably that could show a level 73 per cent. rate. .The fact is, the value of property is so open to dispute that the assessors find it diffi cult to make a list that does not upon the face of It look more like a false pretence than a square deal for all the taxpayers. The 75 per cent, stan dard today is more of a delusion than a certainty'. Now the board of equalization tells j us that no property is legally entered p upon the prand list which Is not ae 5 j curately described and sworn to by j the owner. How many boards of as- i sessors in eastern Connecticut are de- 'read (he tatenlent made by the board, of equaizatjon with quotations from the jaw are heeding it? We are jogging along in the same old way and if the iboard of equalisation of this state are rlpht, and there is no aouoc mat, tney are, very lew piecee u ijniiri lj in Norwkh or elsewhere Is being le gally registered today. If we do not abide by the law do not care whether our property is le gally registered or not, we certainly should not hold in low esteem those who do not' respect other laws passed for the just treatment of citizens and the well-being of the community. Self-interest makes cowards of us all in many directions. THE ROOT OF THE PLAGUE. While a great deal is being done to check the mortality from tuberculosis In one way and another, the root of the matter appears to be beyond the reach of those who ao persistently de vote themselves to the abatement of the disease. The dark, damp, uncleanly tenements in the cities are the fruitful source of the plague, and the way to prevent the erection and letting of cheap and un healthy places of abode to poor peo nle has not yet been devised. In every city human beings are housed in places which would not be considered light enough or well ventilated enough to raise in health hogs or dogs; and, yet, this Is still a matter that can not bo helped. The New York Tribune states that tests at the Bea Breeze hospital, Co ney Island, during the summer, have shown that from 25 to 30 per cent, of the young children of the East Side of New York city are infected with tuberculosis. Out of 781 children examined during the one-day excur sions under the auspices- of the As sociation for Improving the Condition of the Poor, 205 showed traces of the disease. A committee of prominent citizens petitioned the board of finance of Hartford to make an appropriation for the erection of a school for the accommodation of tuberculosis chil dren. The board promptly granted the request, and the new school will be lo cated on high ground, where the pupils will have opportunity to be out of doors as much as possible. The plan Is to provide one hot meal a day for the little victims, to give them plenty of exorcise under medical supervision, and to Institute regulations as to hours of sleeping at home. What needs be done is to abolish the Industrial and domestic conditions which" breed weakly children who so readily become victims of the tuber culosis germs. These aids are well enough but they certainly do not reach the root of the matter. BY SOUND AND BY GUESS. It will have to be admitted that nearly as many people spell words 'by sound and by guess as toy the hook. The trials of the students entering American colleges show that correct spelling is fast becoming a lost art. The New Haven Register, to show that the schools of the east are equal ed at the west in turning out poor spellers, says: "It is but fair to Yale to set down here this list of results from a straight spelling test imposed on the freshmen of Northwestern uni versity: "Irregular Earegular, iregeler, ir- egealor. "Accessible Excessable, assessable, axsesble. "Counterfeit Counterflt, conterflte, counterpheet. "A pprentice A prentase, aprentis. "Chivalry Shivalery, shivlry, chlf alery. "Magazine Magazene, magazean, maglzeno. "Plumuge Plumnage, pluamege, plumaeg. "Anthracite Anthreecit, anthrisight "Adage Addage, addige. "Municipal Munisipple, munciple. "Glacier Glassear, glashier. "Intelligence Enteligance, intele gence.' It is pointed out that this Is evi dence that the preparatory schools are not giving the attention to teach ing spelling that they should. Since mental arithmetic has been largely done away with, and the old methods which tended to strengthen the mem ory of the pupils are no more, per haps these results are about what should be expected. The old way of mastering knowledge is not always the worst way. EDITORIAL NOTES. As soon as the squaw winter strikes on, we shall know that the Indian summer is right ahead. The young women with ivory throats appear to be immune from pneumonia. 'They dare defy the elements. Dr. Cook confesses that he is getting a good many surprises Just now; but none of them appear to upset him. When It comes to' calling one an other names, the New York political speakers have those of Boston beaten a mile. A king .gets his walking ticket. The king of Greece has seen the hand writing on the wall which says that he must go. What is there in a name? Here In the American banking system the di rector is not the man who does the directing. The young women who are as dressy as peacocks have not seriously thought what a small demand there is for peacocks.' No great man ever took delight in trying to belittle an opponent. Where greatness dwells, such tactics are not necessary.-. Happy thought for today:. If you are not what you pretend to be, do v Woman in Lite ana m tne JUtcnen v CONCERNING WOMEN. Mrs. Emma Tillotson,who died recent ly in New York, left 1126,000 to chari ties.

Tha pearl and coral collars are be ing Men again this season, though they differ slightly from the regulation "dug collar" of the past There is no barctte In front, as has been usually the case. The supports are only at the sides and in back. The strings of beads between the two side supports vary in length. The uppermost one is inrvop tlian rtprpssarv to fit the neck well. Each of the others has a few more beads than the one directly above it. and the lowermost string falls quite similarly to single neck lace. Salmon Croquettes. One can of salmon, one-half cup of white sauce, salt and pepper to taste, and the yolk of one egg. Drain the pick over the salmon and heat with white sauce; season and stir until smooth. Set aside for two hours, then roll in pyramids, dip in fine bread crumbs, in slightly beaten egg yolk, then in crumbs again. Pry in deep fat in wire basket and drain on brown paper In oven. Boiled Mackerel. Fresh mackerel boiled is a tasty dish.' Split the fish down the back and put in a dripping pan, pouring over it a pint of boiling water, two table spoonfuls of vinegar an two table spoonfuls of lemon Juice. Sprinkle well with a teaspoon.fi4 of salt. Add an onion cut in slices and boll for three-quarters of an hour. Take up the fish and put on a hot platter. Strain the liquor in the pan, add a tea spoonful of .capers, bring the liquid to a boil, pour over the fish and serve at once. Cheap Cut of Lamb. One of the least expensive cuts of lamb is the plate, or breast. If the ribs are removed and the meat care fully rolled up after being spread with a stuffing similar to that made for chicken, It makes delicious roast. Serve it with minf sauce or jelly. It will be found an excellent aubstitute for a more expensive cut. iS Paris Transfer Pattern No. 8112.

It is generally admitted that New York needs a housecleaning; and if Hearst Is erected he may show the people that he employs a vacuum sweeper. The multi-millionaires of the coun try appear to think that the Joy of giving libraries, etc., is greater than the joy of paying a fair proportion of the taxes. Thanksgiving Is only five weeks off, and we shall soon have to muster something to be thankful for. That mutters are no worse, is an abiding reason for thanks.
