' WHAT DEFEATED JEFFRIES.
The principal causes of the defeat of
Jeffries by Johnson appear to be:
Over-confidence on Jeffries' part, in
cluding his belief that he could take
any punishment within Johnson's abil
ity to inflict and still retain full
strength for a knockout blow; substi
tution of trout fishing for such phy
sical training as would lessen the in
terior fat accumulated during some
years of abstinence frofn hard physi
cal exercise, extreme difficulty, if not
impossibility, of "coming back" after
a lengthy period of comparative idle
ness; the - dexterity of Johnson as a
boxer, and his ability to deliver a
much heaver blow than was expected.
There jnay have been minor causes,
but the -above mentioned amply suffice
tq explain Jeffries' defeat. Combined,
they were sufficient to make John
son outclass his opponent.-
The fight was not the fake antici
pated by many, nor did. Johnson show
the "yellow streak" predicted by some.
Jeffries would not, if a party to any
fake, have taken such severe punish
ment, nor would Johnson have inflict
ed it. The fight would have been pro
longed with light punishment on both
sides. As to Johnson's alleged "yel
low streak", there was no trace of it.
He did not avoid punishment, except
in ways legitimately connected with
good "ring generalship."
The better man the one in better
condition every way won; his success
was not due to any accidental blow,
as sometimes happens in ring encoun
ters. He- struck the more and the
heavier blows, which fact is ample
to explain his success. And he Is now
the undoubted, unquestioned, heavy
weight champion of the world, and
will quite probably remain such until
he, like all his predecessors, "goe3
stale through idleness, excesses, etc.,
and is outclassed, as was Jeffries, by
some new-comer in the pugilistic field.
The white world sympathizes with
the defeated man, but is equally ready
concede that, at this time and un
der the - existing conditions, Johnson
won the fight fairly and is the better
pugilist.
The death of Chief Justice Fuller
of the U. S. Supreme court makes
another vacancy to be filled by Presi
dent Taft. It would not be strange
if his appointments should affect in
some way the decisions of the court
upon some or all of the important
questions pending before it. Between
now and December when the appoint
ments will probabily be made, there
will be ample time for ascertainment
of the records, if any, of the judicial
possibilities upon these questions. The
new Justices should be men of open
minds, uncommitted and unprejudiced
upon pending issues.
"God willing, I'll be here next ses
sion and it will be for the Republican
majority to determine who shall be
speaker," said Speaker Cannon at the
close of the Congressional session.
This means that he will be a candi
date for re-election to the House and
is confident of success, and that he
will then be a candidate for re-election
to the Speakership. The Demo
crats of his district must act differ
ently from their custom, if he Is to
be defeated; they must nominate a
bona fide candidate, and not a mere
dummy. As to the Speakership, that
Will be decided by the caucus of
whichever party is dominant; in the
event of the Republican party secur
ing a majority "of the House, the In
surgents must, In order to defeat Can
non, be stronger numerically than at
present, or be willing to unite with
.the Democrats.

BULXELEY VS. M 'LEAN AND CLARK
Having practically "given the lie" to Ex-Gov. McLean. Senator
Bulkeley now asserts that when Charles Hopkins Clark, editor of the
Hartford Courant. says that he (Bulkeley) ever promised Mr. McLean
not to run for the Senate again, and that he (Clark) knows from
personal knowledge that he did, Mr. Clark says what is not true.
That is. the Senator places Clark as well as McLean in the Ananias
class. Qf a verity, the Senatorial contest is warming up.
It Is not within the Farmer's province to defend Mr. Clark upon
the Bulkeley charge; he is abundantly capable of defending himself. -and
we are inclined to believe that when he deems the times ripe for
a defence, the deliverance will be decidedly to the Senator's discom
fiture. There is another matter, connected in some degree with this Sen
atorial contest, which may demand Mr. Clark's attention. A report
is in circulation, to the effect that Mr. Clark dragged Congressman
Hill into the contest with Senator Brandegee, that he designedly
chose a too late date for Mr. Hill's appearance as a candidate, that
his purpose was the defeat of Mr. Hill In order to remove him
from the present contest and that the Hill-McLean "gentlemen's
agreement" was a part of the scheme.
This report is in use by the Anti-Hill Republicans of Fairfield
county as an exculpation of their Pro-Brandegee action two years
ago, and of their present Pro-Bulkeley position. It' is abviously in
tended to damage the McLean candidacy by engendering a belief
among Hill Republicans that both McLean and his principal sup
porter. Mr. Clark, engaged in a secret conspiracy against Mr. Hill,
under the disguise of a surface alliance with him two years ago, and.,
that but for this. Mr. Hill would now be a Senatornal candidate with
most excellent chances of success.
Here in Fairfield county, this matter is of greater interest and
even of greater importance than the question whether Senator Bulke
ley is right in practically saying, "You lie", to Messrs. McLean and
Clark.
EXECUTION RUNS Iti
THE HATTERS CASE
United States Marshal Making
Demand For $225,000
United States Marshal Edson S.
Bishop went to Danbury yesterday to
make demand on the defendants, un
der execution issued by the United
States circuit court in the suit of D. E.
Loewe & Co., hat manufacturers of
Danbury, against Martin Lawler and
others, members of the hatters' union
The case is known as the hatters' case
D. E. Loewe & Co., alleged that the
members of the union conspired
against them, they sued for damages
and to them was awarded $225,000.
The case is to be taken to the Uni
ted States circuit court of appeals by
the defendants. Judge Piatt had fix
ed a time for the defendants to file
a bond in the sum of $250,000 to stay
execution, but the defendants failed
to file the bond and execution followed.
Real estate of the defendants and
money which many of them had in
banks was attached when the suit
was first brought. Although an ap
peal is to be taken the appeal does
not stay execution in the federal court
practice, but should the defendants
pay, D. E. Loewe & Co., will have
to return what they realize under the
execution should the United States
circuit court of - appeals upset the
judgment 'of the United States circuit
court. If the defendants do not pay
on demand by the marshal a scire fa
cias will run against them and they
will ha;e to appear in court and tell
the reason why they do not pay.
BAND PLAYED BUT '
QUARTET WAS STALLED
1 BY AUTO MISHAP
Attracted by the excellent music
given at the previous band concerts
by the Coast Artillery Corps band a
number of thousand people went to
Seaside park last night to attend the
weekly band concert , there by this
band only to be disappointed because
the Ted Snyder quartet, which had
made such a hit last week at Wash
ington park, were unable to get there
through no fault of their own. - The
quartet had left Njw York at 4
o'clock in the afternoon in an-automobile
bound for Bridgeport but be
tween Stamford and Norwalk the ma
chine broke down and stalled them so
that they could not even get a train
so as to arrive here in season to ful
fill their engagement. This trouble
the band were in complete ignorance
of until after the concert was all
over. Chief Musician Paul G. Gould
ing had the band play a number of
extra selections, thus, prolonging the
concert in hopes that the quartet
would put in an appearance. The con
cert by the. band was fully up to their
usual high standard.

the Salt's Textile Company at 1 this
morning. Some yarn burst into flames.
The automatic sprinklers opened, but
the fire reached the roof and the

New York, July 6. "Fighting Joe"
Hyland had an easy time in defeating
Jimmy Moran in a ten-round bout
last night. Hyland landed at will and
hammered away at Moran's face and
body with telling effect. Moran had
practically no defense, as he left him
self wide open to Hyland's attacks.
P.
T. BARNUM. 1810-1910.
(New York World.)
In print the other day an old-time
friend of Phineas T. Barnum express
ed a doubt as to whether the great
showman ever said that "the Ameri
can people love to be humbugged."
Barnum himself did not deny the
phrase. Nothing in this declaration
is inconsistent with a career which
opened in 1835 with the exhibition of
"one of the greatest natural curiosi
ties ever witnessed, viz.. Joice Heth, a
negress 161 years old. who formerly
belonged to the father of Gen. Wash
ington." Certainly Barnum knew his crowd
and knew the value of advertising.
Born at Bethel, Conn., a hundred years
ago today, he was not less plucky than
shrewd. Losing fortunes in succession
by failure and fire, he never lacked
courage for a fresh start. And he
settled with his creditors.
This generation . may laugh at the
old stories of the Barnum woolly' horse,
the Japanese mermaid and the white
elephant. It must remember, how
ever, that the same promoter who
brought out these freaks gave America
also its chance to hear Jenny Linci.
Tom Thumb too was a Barnum find,
with profit to the finder. Such hum
buggery as was his. Barnum exploited
frankly and to the whole world. It is
significant that nineteen years after
his death his name still is one to con
lnrfl with In thft fiftld n-f th tMitpd
TflE THEATRES
POLI'S
Those who attend this weeks presen
tation by the Poli Players will find
themselves amply repaid for the time
and the nominal investment for the
offering is the famous Eugene Walter
play Paid in Full and to say that in
ItSI PVPrV ncnppf if fes tVick hac n,Aoam.
tation yet put forward by the Pol
Players is to put it mildly indeed.
It certainly is the most talked of
play that has been' presented here this
season and it is simply teeming with
interest and it is natural that it
should for it is easily understand
able, it is made up Qf incidents that
may not come home to. all of us but
they are incidents of which we are
well aware there is an existence.
Briefly told it concerns a young mar
ried couple with ambitions socially
and an income of eighteen dollars per
week. They do their own housework
which is appalling to the relatives of
the young wife. The husband squirms
under the criticisms of his wifes folks,
tries to get more salary and is refus
ed. He then does what he thinks Is
the next best thing and steals from
his employer. When found out and
cornered he tries to make his wife
barter herself to his employer to save
him. That is the brutal statement of
facts and the author has certainly
woven a brilliant play from the plot.
So artistically are the scenes and sit
uations carried out and so excellent
is it all acted by the Players that the
artistic merit of it all appeals above
all else.
J. Hammond Dailey the very cap
able juvenile of the company has the
role of Joe Brooks and Miss Fleming
gives a charming portrayal of the
role of Emma Brooks the wife. John
E. Ince is admirably cast as JImsy
Smith one of the best character roles
on the American stage and Joseph Eg-genton-as
the rough and uncouth sea
captain who, however, has a real
man's heart is the Captain Williams.
Around these four the entire interest
of the play revolves and the four
carry their roles admirably.
The scene between Mrs. Brooks and
Captain Williams at night in the
apartments of the latter where Brooks
has sent his wife to barter herself is
the scene that made the play famous
and Mr. Eggenton and Miss Fleming
act it on a par with any two that
have ever played the roles. Paid in
Full will be seen all week at Poli's
at' popular prices and in the fall it
will be seen elsewhere at the two dol
lar price of admission.
Between the acts Eilee Guerin and
the Singing Ushers sing the latest il
lustrated songs ' and moving pictures
of Roosevelts arrival in New York
and his reception greatly interest the
ladies. Coupons are distributed at the
.matinees to the ladies entitling them
to participate in the giving away next
Monday afternoon of the twenty-five
dollar kitchen cabinet fully equipped
and now on exhibition at Howlands.
RHEUMATISM CURED IN A DAY.
