An account of the return of the New Eng land Democratic delegates from Chicago says that at Elkhart, Ind., Governor Waller ad. dressed the crowd.

Nine cars filled with people went to High Rock Grove yesterday, morning on the Church of the Messiah picnic The Church of the Holy Spirit, Rev.

The day was everything to be desired for a picnic, and everyone seemed to enjoy it to the fullest extent, Dancing was enjoyed the greater part of the day, while the skating rink and other amusements were not neglected. At 12 o'clock the call was sounded for dinner and the two societies occupied their respective places. After all were satisfied the presi dent of the committee, Mr. T. F. Lamb, in troduced Rev.

Mrs. Hanaford, at her own request, closed with a very earnest address, Dancing was then resumed and at 3 o'clock Miss Net tie Perkins gave an exhibition of fancy skat ing at the rink, which elicited much ap plause.

Ali spoke highly of the picnic and the day's en joyment. Rev. Mr. Houghton's remarks were as follows: I am nleAsed to stand before mv old friends once more after a somewhat prolonged absence in the far est, where I enjoyed myself greatly, hunting deer. fighting mosquitoes and angling the sly trout from their watery homes among the rocks. The trip did a world oi good in every way. 1 come home firmer than ever in the belief of the brotherhood of mankind, wherever I went I found the same warm hearts that greet me here to-day. As denominations, as churches, as preachers, we have been from all past time trying to tell the story of God's love and interest in the human race. One church tells it uf one way and another pn another. Our misunderstanding minds and stammering tongues cannot plainly declare the whole truth of God, of cm-isc ana immortality, w e can see only a little way, and the power of th e gospel paralyzes our tongues as we try to express its language. It is be cause the theme of religion is so vast that we. our weakness, differ concerning it. We trv to teU the tale, but cannot. I have faith, however, to be lieve that as the world grows in wisdom all its great religious teachers are seeing the truth more as we try to express it. They see the oneness of God and humanity. They see the sin crushed of earth nsini at last to happiness and glory; they see a gram consummation to all God's works. Fell From the Cars. Patrick Dorman, a Wallingford man, fell from the 11:!15 a. m. express train from Meri den, north, Mondav, just after the train loft Meriden, and was badly cut about the head.

He returned from Colorado a short time ago where he had gone two years ago for the benefit of his health. He was a host well known for geniality and kindness and many wits like Hon. E. S. Cleveland, Ike Bromley and George G. Sill used to enjoy his hospitality. The Light Guard. Of the Light Guard dinner in Middletown Monday at the centennial celebration the Post says: The elegant spread prepared by Caterer George A. Chafee for the Mansfield Guard and their guests, the New Haven Light Guard, is worthy of especial mention. The variety was large, cooked in the best manner and served in fine style.

Death of Mrs. Maria Bishop. The death of Mrs. Maria Bishop removes one of New Haven's oldest town-born inhab itants. She was a woman of penetrating in tellect, energetic temperament and industri ous disposition. The Christian religion was her creed and the Bible was to her the word of God, so she lost no time in trying to ad just the conflict between this book and the claims of natural science, but simply kept the faith. Besides this she was an honest woman, quiet, peaceable, independent, plain, yet high spirited, and had a thorough contempt for all shame and humbug. For the welfare of her own family she was tender and solic itous, kindly disposed towards her neighbors dealt justly with her fellow men and always minded her own business. County Commissioners. Prosecuting Agent Dailey appeared before the county commissioners to oppose the granting of a license to Alexander Cummings for a saloon at 583 Grand street. His ob jection was based on Cummings' police re cord between 1876 and 1880, the record show ing that during this period he had been ar rested fourteen times for various petty offen ses. Cummings is now but 22, and Mr. Dailey alleged nothing against him for the past four years, but thought his previous misconduct should be sufficient to prevent him from getting a license. A number of witnesses testified to the applicant's present good character. The commissioners voted to grant the license, ' Commissioner Jacobs dissenting. The hearing in the recovation case of E. A: Baldwin, of Baldwin's Grove, Ansonia, is to be on next Thursday at 10 a. m. One reason why diseases of the bladder and urinary organs are so difficult to cure is that they frequently have so pronounced symp toms. Hunt's Kidney and Liver Remedy is peculiarly adapted to the cure of these com plaints, and eoes at once to the seat of the rouble, giving relief at once.- jyl4eod3twlt THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK. Views of Prominent New Haven Men Representatives of Various Boards of Trade and the Industries Antlcl nations That a Decided Business Ira provement Is at Hand The Large Wheat Crop a Factor In the Indie tlons Other Indications. The views of various prominent citizens as to the general business outlook in the coun try are given below. The opinion entertained is that the period of depression which has prevailed for months past is Buccumbing be fore the approach of a decided improvement of business and return of confidence. The change they attribute in part to the great promise of the wheat crop and the indica tions that a large portion of it will be wanted abroad, and also to the prospect that there will soon come increased demands upon the manufactories. They also believe that mer cantile and manufacturing interests are upon a more solid and substantial basis and that the element of speculation and wild schem ing has had a set back which will result wholesome fruits. Ex-Governor Bigelow was found by the re porter busy in the transaction of business, He said: Yes, there are good signs of an lm provement in business throughout the country. I look for a boom in business next spring. We shall feel a touch of the better feeling in the fall. Next spring times will be brisk." Mr. Nathan H. Sanf ord was of the opinion that by the fall business generally throughout the country would show a decided gain and improvement. The immense wheat crop would give a great deal of work to many of the great railroads, particularly as there was a prospect that Europe would want many millions of dollars worth of the staff of life, The business situation would improve by the influx of $100,000,000 or more into this country. All sections would gain in such an event. Then there were other signs indica tive of a returning confidence in financial and mercantile circles and of a healthy improve ment of matters in the manufacturing and mercantile world. Mr. Monson, of Monson & Carpenter. thought the signs of the times all favorable to an early improvement in trade and busi ness throughout the country. The period of stagnation would ere long undoubtedly give way for the approach of a healthy business activity and an increase of prosperity. Mr. James Graham, of James Graham & Co., the brass founders on Wooster street, said that the outlook was brightening. In his own business there were indications of in creased activity. The abundant promise of the crops was another solid indication that the dull season was passing away, to De suc ceeded by a general improvement in business. Mr. Max Adler, of the great corset manu factory on Court street, said: "This is and has been for some time a period of uncertainty and distrust in the business world. Values are uncertain and fluctuating and manufac turers hesitate to strike out or manufacture for anything but present and immediate de mands. Then the merchants buy cautiously and only for present necessities. But with the crop prospects and the wholesome frails of the lessons of the post reverses and other indications I see reason to anticipate a decid ed improvement in business before long." Mr. b. J. rioggson, the manufacturer. thought the outlook at present rather impos sible for any speedy resumption of driving: times, but thought the country was working out of the dull period. Mr. Philip Pond, of the Board of Educa tion, was quite confident that the indications of the times point toward a decided improve ment in business, l here were good indica tions that the period of distrust and lack of confidence was passing away, to be succeeded before a great while by a period of solid prosperity based upon a wise conduct of business. Business men were now working on the sate plan. Mr. Charles M. Proctor, of Proctor, Ma- guire & Co. , dealers in dry goods, thought the Dusmess outiooK tor the tall in his line was good. "Our stock is low at the present time, he continued, ' our spring trade hav ing been very good. Trade was better this spring than last. Prices were on the decline last year and we were obliged to meet the prices of forced auction sales in New York and other cities. But prices have reached rock bottom now and we look for a good le gitimate fall trade. Manufacturers are not overstocked as they were a year ago. We shall keep our stock down and sail close to the wind. Yes, the outlook for the fall trade is favorable." Maier Zunder, of M. Zunder & Son, whole sale grocers, was asked about the prospect for the fall trade. "Well, on the whole, the outlook is not very cloudy," he said. " will say that my business is not very flourish ing at present, but it was no better last year. I do not see anything alarming, and further more, 1 can say that 1 sincerely believe that the success of either party in the presiden tial election will not affect business serious ly. The depression in stocks has had some effect on business. There are perhaps fifty or seventy-five men in New Haven who deal considerably in stocks. They are men who have capital and their investments are not paying as well as they expected, their quarterly and semi-annual dividends are not coming in as they expected. Con sequently they are not putting; out any more money, but are keeping it idle. So through out the country, and it must have its effect. r or instance, I know a gentleman who was intending to buy a fine carriage. The other day 1 asked him wnether he had bought it yet or not, and he said he had given up the idea, as nis dividend nadn t come m. But the opinion of our bankers is that there will be a reaction and that trade will be good this ran. Mr. J. B. Sargent said: "I can't tell any thing about it. One man's guess is as good as another's. My rule is to 'trust in God and keep your powder dry. " Hiram Camp, president, and r rank E. Morgan, secretary and treasurer of the New Haven Clock company, thought there was no reason why the fall trade should not be good. They said it was too early to tell definitely, as the buyers from the South and West have not begun putting in their orders yet. .Messrs. Henry i . and John M. Peck, of Peck Brothers & Co., manufacturers of brass faucets and plumbers' materials, appeared to be cheerful regarding the fall outlook. Their business was good at the present time; more orders were in than could be filled at present. The' atmosphere had been cleared by the failures and there was no reason why trade should not be excellent. Business with deal in stoves, which is always best at this season of the year, has been nsusually good this summer, and that is an index of trade in brass works and plumbers' materials. The favorable outlook for the crops would cer tainly give an impetus to trade. In the opmion of Mr. H. F. Peck the rule that busi ness is dull in presidential years does not hold, as it was very-good four years aeo and promisea to De tnis year. well. 1 guess you hnd it all one way- quiet," said Mr. Henry Killam when the re porter stated his errand. " As for the fall it is rather early to tell yet. We are not run ningf with our full capacity now. I am in clined to think the business will be dull un til this election is settled. But trade ought to De gooa next spring. " Shall It Be Dissolved? Yesterday forenoon before Judge Stoddard of the Superior court a motion for the dis solving of an injunction was heard. Foskett & Bishop had attached property in the Carll Opera House in a suit for a debt of about a thousand dollars. An injunction was issued against the removal of the property, such as stage appurtenances and furniture, and Fos kett & Bishop now ask that the injunction may be removed, so that they can take full possession of the property attached and take to a place for keeping. The mo tion is resisted on the ground that the property cannot be taken away from the Opera House without working an injury to Mr. Carll and without more or less damage to it. The officer who served the writ of at tachment is in possession, and Mr. Carll, as said before, had enjoined him from removing !. j.ue neanng on me motion xor a cussoiu tion of the iniunction to prevent the removal was appointed for next Friday at 10 o'clock m me. lorenoon. Dor Mr. uam are Wright, Stoddard and Thompson, and for Foskett & Bishop are T. H. Russell and Matthewman. Pickpockets In Hartford. Hartford has some pickpocket now. Yes terday afternoon a party of policemen arrest ed at Robert Weller's saloon, on Pearl street, a party of men who gave their names as Wil liam Henry, Michael Harrity, James Thomp son, j. jb. Walker and George Leary, One of the number refused to give his name. William Henry as he was leaving the saloon slyly slipped a silver watch upon a shelf in order to get rid of it, but was seen, and the act will tell against him.. . .- v Leary had a watch chain, but there was no ticker attached.

The Laws Against Swearing and Throwing Banana Peels on the Side walksThe Sad Efl'ects of One Bana na Peel. "Isn't there a law prohibiting loud swear ing on the streets?" was asked of one of New Haven's "finest" last evening. "Yes, there is a law on the statutes, but swearing is so prevalent that we seldom ar rest a man for it. Sometimes if it is carried to an extreme we caution the ones who are violating the law. If a man uses abusive or insulting language to ladies, we arrest him, but seldom do so for swearing. It is one of those laws that have become almost obsolete. Another example is the law for bidding the throwing of banana peels or orange skins upon the sidewalk. If you were going along the Btreet and should throw a piece of orange skin down on the walk and I should arrest you and make you give bonds, or stay all night in the lockup, you would think it a good deal of hardship. But the law would uphold us in doing so, and the evil of banana peels is quite serious. Sometimes I throw off a great many of them in my rounds. Only the other day I saw a lady fall be cause of one of them on Chapel street and hurt herself badly. A young man of my acquaintance was once walking on the street with the young lady to whom he was engaged when she slipped on a banana peel and broke her leg. Not long af terward she died of the effect of that fall and the young man felt so badly that he became deranged and used to go around the streets picking up banana peels, orange skins and the like and throwing them in the gutter. And there is an ordinance requiring every fruit stand in the city to keep posted in a conspicuous place the law against throwing those things on the walks, but not a stand in the city complies with it, and no one cares enough about the matter to attend to it. If you would call attention to it in your paper perhaps it would do some good." Fire Commissioners. There was a meeting of the fire commis sioners last evening, Commissioner Mullen presiding. The matter of granting the permanent men of the department one week's vacation during the summer and fall months was discussed. Commissioner Ruff thought the whole mat ter had better be dropped for this year, as it was too late and the appropriation was insuf ficient. Commissioner Brown, while in favor of the scheme, thought it could not be carried out without crippling the department and on his motion the petitioners were given leave to withdraw. The resignation of George Kaupman, hose- man on engine 5, was accepted and Substitute Charles H. Durant was appointed to fill the vacancy. E. J. Coffee was also appointed hoseman on engine No.-6. The following substitutes were appointed: John F. Spang, engine 1; J. B. Gladwin, en gine 3; E. M. Provost, engine 5; W. B. Per kins, engine 6; John Q. Adams, engine 6; George D. Stevens, hose 7.
