to reports that the town of Madison
finds itself deeper in debt than had

. This Is "Walker Day" in the Central
' American republic of Nicaragua, and
commemorates the fifty-third anniver
sary of the execution of William Walk
er, the American filibuster who was
the chief , actor in a conspiracy for the
"benevolent assimilation"' of Centra
America. Secretary Bryan's project
for establishing what would amount
to a protectorate over Nicaragua- has
revived interest In the career or
Walker, the prince of Central Ameri
can soldiers of fortune, whose career
ended ingloriously when, backed
against an adobe wall, he faced a fir
ing squad at Truxille, Honduras, on
Sept. 12, 1860. "Walker Day" was
long observed in Nicaragua and Hon
duras by anti-American demonstra
tions, and the hatred of the "Tankis"
for which the filibuster was responsi
ble still persists in many parts of Cen-
tral America.
Walker was a native of Nashville,
; Tenn., and for a time was editor of
m. newspaper In New Orleans. He
joined the gold rush to California in
1850, and three years later he organ
ized an expedition to invade the Mexi
can State of Sonora, but was repulsed.
'At about the same time Col. H. L.
'JCinney had led a band of armed eml-
grants to the Mosquito Coast of
.Nicaragua, and. under the specious
'pretext that the British were likely to
.possess it, and appealing to the Mon
. roe , doctrine for Justification, estab
. IisbjeV i American; Jrojony there. Kin
.jiey, hearing of Walker's exploit, in
.lted him to try his fortunes in Nica
ragua, and this invitation was second
ed by Ctstellon, a Nicaraguan general
-who was then leading a revolution
against President Chamerra. Walker
Immediately left San Francisco with
. 300 adventurers In his train, and ar
rived in Nicaragua in the Summer of
1855. When the Nicaraguan regulars
: advanced on them. Walker and his
men fled, and escaped in a schooner.
He soon returned, and the American
settlers organized a "republic" with
as president. Walker, after a few
-military victories, captured Granada,
and proclaimed General Rivas, a Nica
raguan, as president. Treating Kin
ney with contempt. Walker drove him
from the country.
Walker's "president," Rivas, was re
cognized as such by the .United States
minister, John H. Wheeler, and by a
: British consul. The other Central
Americans, alarmed at Walker's suc-
! cess in usurping the Nicaraguan gov-
i ernmcnt, declared war against him.
:The Costa Ricans marched against
him, but were defeated, and the sol-
. -d-ier of fortune became extremely ar
Togant. The "gray-eyed man of des
tiny" had been the real ruler from
the first, but now he ejected Rivas
from office, and became president in
name as well as in fact. The govern
ment at Washington hastened to re
cognize the Walker government, and
Walker's minister to Washington,
"Vijil. a priest, was cordially received
by President Pierce. Walker ruled
with a high hand for- a brief period,
when he was overthrown by the com
bined armies of Central America, and
surrendered the remnant of his army
to Rivas, his former "man Friday."
Commodore Davis.of the United States
navy, happened to be at hand, and
Walker "was taken away unhurt. At
New Orleans Walker fitted out an
other expedition, but was captured by
the United States authorities, only to
be speedily freed by order of Presi
dent Buchanan. He was again seized
when he sailed from Mobile, but was
soon released, and returned to Central
America- He captured the fort at
Truxillo, Honduras, but was soon
made a prisoner, and, after a brief
trial, was shot.

JUDSON FORCES WIN OUT IN
STRATFORD G. 0. P. CAUCUS
States Attorney Bitterly Assails Pro
bate Judge Peck For Alleged
Wrong Doing
Bitter Epithets Hurled During The Verbal Fire
works Conine's Charge Angers Judson
Following Peck's Defeat For
Chairman Of Caucus
(Special to The Farmer)
Stratford, Sept. 12 "Liar," "thief,"
"rum-seller.s politician," "blather
kite," "mouther of words," and "hypo
crite" were just a few of the iverbal
brickbats fired at one another's heads
by leaders of the Republican party in
the annual caucus of that .party held
in the Stratford town hall last even.
ing. It seemed just like old times to
hear one man .denouncing .another in
language which would have made the
fishwives of Billingsgate market turn
green with envy. The trouble was alU
about Judge Charles H. Peck's candi
dacy for the chairmanship of the cau
cus for which position he was bitter
.ly opposed by State's Attorney Stiles
Judson. For almost two hours Attor
ney Judson fought Judge Peck and
Judge Peck's Supporters, and it was
nearly ten o'clock before a chairman
in the person of Republican Town
Chairman Fred Starr Beardsley, Attor
ney Judson's candidate, was finally
elected by a vote of 76- to judge Peck's
57. " '
The caucus was called to order at 8
o'clock and Fred Starr Beardsley was
selected as temporary chairman. Nom
inations for chairman of the meeting
were called for and immediately Judge
Peck's name was ' presented, the only
other nominee for the office being Mr.
Beardsley. . ,
The moment Judge Peck's name was
proposed Attorney Judson jumped to
his feet to oppose him and the fight
was on. It was the hottest fight seen
in the Stratford town hall since the
time Mr. Judson opposed Mr. Peck
for Judge of Probate about a year
ago.
"Do you realize whom you are nom
inating, for this office?" asked Mr.
Judson. "You may not know, but I'll
tell you right now a man can't com
mit a state's prison crime as this man
Peck has done, and sit up in that
chairman's seat. Two years ago I
brought to yxur attention the fact that
Peck wilfully misappropriated $750 belonging-
to the- Perry heirs. You did
not seem to believe me then but you
will believe me when he is disbarred
from practicing law ,as a result of Jhe
part he took m that case.? .
Mr. Judson then went on to tell of
an alleged bargain Judge Peck had
made with the liquor interests of the
town, conniving with the selectmen
to extend the closing hour of saloons
in the town from 11 to 12 o'clock, if he
was re-elected to the office of judge
of probate. At this point William
Bassett of Holliste- Heights , rose to
his feet asking the temporary chair
man the question:
"Is this a caucus or a scandal meet
ing?"
He wanted Mr. Judson ruled out of
order" but Mr. Judson said that his
remarks were pertinent to the mat
ter in hand and he was therefore al
lowed to continue.
He said that Judge Peck on differ
ent 'occasions, toad bargained to pro
tect the liquor interests of the town
and, he Upbraided him for the stand
he had taken in the recent Stavola
raid case, when Stavola was fined Only
$10 by Judge Peck after being caught
rad-haaded by Iftiel state police in
the act of selling liquor .on Sunday.
"This man who has "the nerve to let
hia name be presented' as a candidate
for chairman of this caucus has dis
graced himself in every office he ever
held in the town," said Attorney Jud
son. "If you want to know what
Peck's record is, it is to steal $750
from the Perry heirs." '
"No matter what Judge Peck's rec
ord is someone shouted, "he's en
franchised in this town and is en
titled to the chair if elected by the
popular vote."
"Nonsense," returned Judson. "The
(own had been disgraced with these
criminal goings-on long enough. This
man will be before the bar of justice
on a state's prison offense in the next
term of court for the part . he took
In- the Jernette Hallock case when he
tad the nerve to . file, a record, pre
sumably showing that a dead woman
had appeared in his .court on a charfe
of drunkenness!" ( ......
At this F. E. Conine interrupted Mr.
Judson to say that he thought this
harrangue and tirade had gone about
far enough. He said that . if Mr.
Beardsley, temporary chairman and a
candidate for chairman against Judge
Peck, was any kind of a man he
would not let thai dertunciation of
Peck by Judson go on any further,
knowing that it was helping his own
chances for election by hurting Peck's.
At this Mr. Beardsley promptly turn
ed the temporary chairmanship over
to Elliot W. Peck, who ruled that Mr.
Judson was In order and could con
tinue in his remarks
Mr. Judson continued reviewing the
facts in the Hallock case, accusing
Judge Peck and Sheriff Daniel Rus
sell of gross wrong-doing and con
cluding with the announcement that
both Peck and. Russell are going out
of office in the town for good and all.
"We don't stand for these things in
civilized Stratford," he said.
Judge Peck then had a few words
to say in his own behalf which words
were greeted with thunderous ap
plause by his supporters.
"This man has gone daft on me,"
he said pointing to Judson. "He is
hounding me continually. I never
look at a newspaper nowdays but I
say to myself, 'What will Judson ac
cuse me of today?' You all know I've
never wilfully done wrong in all the
years I have held office. I ask you
to rescue me from this man's abuse."
Judson tried time and again to
speak but he was hooted down with
jeers and cat-calls. "Take a back
seat!" "Sit down!" shouted the Peck
supporters. The chairman rapped for
order and threatened to arrest those
who were creating the disorder if it
did not cease. "Arrest Judson then
someone shouted. At last by telling
them they at least ought to try -and
be gentlemen Mr. Judson managed to
obtain a hearing.
"I'll prove what I say in this Hal
lock case right now," said the state's
attorney. "Is Town Treasurer Jewell
in the hall ?" he asked. Mr. Jewell
was. "Go get the record I saw in your
office on my return from Europe,"
said Mr. Judson to Mr. Jewell, "and
I'll show you in Judge Peck's own
handwriting how he changed the rec
ord to cover up his wrong-doing in
this case." Mr. Jewell went out to
his office while the crowd in the hall
waited expectantly for his return. He
iinaiiy came iDacK with the paper in
question and handed it to Mr. Judson
Like & bomb from a clear sky came
Judson's exclamation, "This is not tjfte
paper you showed me before."
"It certainly is," replied Town
Treasurer Jewell. "This is the origi
nal order and I'll guarantee it's the
only paper I ever had and ever paid."
Mr. Judson seemed thunderstruck for
the paper tended to discredit the
charge brought against Peck. He
tried to explain that a substitution had
been made but the crowd would not
listen to him. They hooted and howl
ed regardless of the threat to ar
rest them and it was fully five minutes
before a motion was made to proceed
with the balloting.
Then it was that the Judson men
sprang their real coup. They de
manded that the voting be by the reg
ular party check list. The result was
that many Peck supporters who had
not registered on the .Republican pri
mary list were not permitted to vote
as they would have been had the
vote been by acclimation or the show
of hands. With these eliminated from
the voting Mr. Beardsley was elected
by a majority of 10 votes.
"Stratford certainly ought to feel
proud of those 57 citizens who voted
lor Pock,'' was Mr. Judson's comment
when the " result of the vote was an
nounced. H. C.LovelIwas. unanimously chosen
cleric of the caucus and was nomin
ated for town clerk, with great ap
plause, receiving more enthusiastic
Support than any other man on the
ticket. . George T. Jew-ell was unani
mously nominated for town treasurer
and the constables nominated were
Fred Palmer, .W. E. . Bassett, Allen
Judson and. George Fryer. .
Someone, placed .State's Attorney
Judson's .name in nomination and Mr.
Judson took the occasion to remark,
"Well, if I'd been elected I would have
put some of these disturbers out of
the hall."
John C. Wilcoxson, the Democratic
tax collector, was unanimously given
a place on the Republican ticket an-d
William H. If Crawford was nominated
as assessor, defeating William Stagg
by a vote of 77 to 53.
. John Graham was then spoken of for
registrar of voters and Mr. Judson
made a speech favoring his candidacy.
F. E. Conine placed in nomination
Henry Wells, who he thought would
be a fine man for the job. A real con
test ensued between Graham and
Welle for the position both young men
having strong supporters.
Mr. Conine came out with the charge
that the slate had been all prepared
by the Republican Town committee in
secret session before the caucus and
that Graham was the committee's se
lection for registrar. '
Mr. Judson denied the charge and
said that he was "tired of listening to
this blatherskite."
"Mr. Conine lies," he said. "He
ought to be sued for. slander and I
don't know but what I'll sue him."
"If Mr. Judson says I lied, he's a
liar," Mr. Conine responded.
"Mr. Conine heard roe right. I said
he lied." returned Judson.
"Then Mr. Judson's a liar," concluded
Conine.
The result of the vote was 54 for
Graham and 44 for Wells In the
course of the remarks on t!ie compar
itive merits of these- two candidates,
Dr. G. F. Lewis, a Wells supporter,
was told by Attorney Judson that he
didn't ' know very much- -about parlia
mentary law."
After the registrar had been selected
the meeting went smoothly on to the
end the other nominations being as
follows: Auditor, Guilbert Y. Ed
ward; school committee for three
years, Dr. William B. Cogswell; li
brary board for four years, E. H. Jud
son, W. H. .Fryer, E. P. Allen and
F. L. Curtis; grand jurors, Ivan L.

ing who" is the woman who came to
police headquarters seeking protection
from imaginary foes- and who gave
her name as Mrs. Charles Pentz, of
8 Lewis street. Investigation of the
woman's story received no confirma
tion. As there is another family of
that name living at 113 Lewis street,
the head of which is a reputable driv
er for a local corporation, the identity
should not be confused. I'n the mean
time both charities and police officials
are wondering what became of the

CORONER FINDS
O'DWYER DEATH
WAS ACCIDENTAL
"Accidental," is the verdict as ren
dered by Coroner John J. Phelan to
day after a most close investigation
into the death of little John O'Dwyer,
of Southport, struck and killed by the
automobile of James Meade, Stough
ton, Mass., some days ago.
In speaking of the case today, the
coroner called attention to the strange
fact that though witnessed by several
persons, directly opposing testimony
was given by witnesses who though
seemingly paradoxical, were found to
have testified in good faith.
It " was stated by some that the boy
had stood upon the grass :plot abut
ting the railroad tracks beside his
home. Between the railroad tracks
and the Warrenite pavement used by
vehicles, is a strip of gravel. The
Meade car was proceeding east, while
In the opposite direction lumbered . a
large ice-truck, and behind that was
another automobile on its way to New
York. Witnesses testified that the
boy's body was found in the middle
of the track having been struck by
the right fender of the machine com
ing toward Bridgeport.
Though some witnesses testified that
the boy stood several feet to the right
of the spot where the body was found,
and persisted to such an extent that
additional witnesses had to be brought
from New York to throw light upon
the matter, Coroner Phelan was at a
loss to understand how, if struck by
the rear right side of an auto, he
could be thrown to the left, the spot
where he had stood.
It has now been satisfactorily ex
plained that the boy suddenly ran be
hind the ice-wagon, apparently out of
the vision of some -witnesses, and was
in reality standing near the middle
of the Warrenite roadway when hit.
Thus has a most intricate puzzle which
perplexed witnesses and coroner alike,
been solved. Mr. and Mrs. Mc
Shayne, of New York, both aver that
the boy suddenly ran from his . posi
tion oh grass plot and threw Up his
hands as he saw his predicament. An
effort to swerve the car from his di
rection almost caused a more sen
ous collision with the other automo
bile. -
BEARS RETIRE
BEFORE BULLS
New York, Sept. 12 Opening Un
usually small, changes ..were made on
first transactions in stocks, today.
Movements were generally upwards and
evidences of a continuation of the im
provement which set in, late yester
day, encouraged the traders to take a
position on the long side. Large buy
ing orders for the Harriman stocks,
which raised the price by large frac
tions at the outset, gave added im
petus to the market and after the first
few moments of trading there was a
definite upward movement. Reading,
which opened fractionally lower,
bounded up over a point from Its first
quotation. Illinois Central and Cana
dian Pacific gained 2 points. Union
Pacific 1 and Lehigh Valley and
Southern Pacific 1.
Noon Technical conditions favored
the brisk advance in stocks which
continued ' through the forenoon.
There was nothing in the day's news
to stimulate the market and the rise
apparently was due merely to its
strong position. A considerable short
interest had been built up on the
strength . of the unfavorable inter
pretation placed upon recent political.
financial and crop conditions and
when these influences lost their pot
ency bears were compelled to retire
their contracts with the tide of prices
strongly against . them. Investment
buying kept pace with the improve
ment in sentiment and the market be
gan to answer to a renewal of opera
tions by large speculators. Outlook
for a large wheat yield was responsi
ble for the broad demand for the
western stocks. Coppers joined in the
up swing. Gains of a point were
numerous and some stocks rose con'
siderably more. Bonds were steady.
U. S. EXPLORERS
BELIEVED SLAIN
BY PERU INDIANS
Chicago, Sept. 12 William L. Page,
and Wilbu- F. Cromer, of Chicago,
who were commissioned to explore the
headwaters of the Amazon, are be
lieved by relatives to have been slain
by natives. Advices received, today,
from the Peruvian government state
that a search expedition found a group
of Indians in possession of the guns,
baggage and other property of the
explorers.
The head of the relief expedition
reported to the Peruvian government:
"I believe that the Americans have
been victims of foul play as it seems
impossible that they should have giv
en up their arms and baggage while
on a trip of this kind."
The last direct word received from
the pair reached Chicago, February 3.
The latter Was dated from Cajabam
ba. The Americans attempted to lay
out a trail between the old Inca cities
of Chiquita and Pajalen.
