Not lnc the "flying wedge" of
the Independence party and the ad
vance guard of Eugene V. Debs' "red
pedal" met head on at Bank street
square ya few weeks ago has there
been so much excitement In that vi
cinity as during the noon hour to
day. It was .all caused by W. O.
Marshall, the man that Is after
"Scoop'' O'Brien, "Scoop" himself,
M. J. Fanning,, another prohibition
ist from Philadelphia and a few or
the crowd. " i
Marshall and his party arrived
at the square at 12 o'clock sharp in
one of Tom Lunny's hacks. Besides
Marshall, who comes from Chicago,
In the party were W. 0. Mellville of
New York, W. H. Bennett of. Buffa
lo and Thomas McMartin also of
New York. , Marshall got down to
business right away and everything
went smoothly until near the end
when some of the men In the gath
ering started the cross examination.
The Rev J. A. Bolster, pastor of the
Second Advent church who Is candi
date for congress on the "pro" ticket
wanted to know who was paying
Marshall. Mr Bolster immediately
proceeded to tell where he stood.
Next W. J. Papo of the Republican
got quizzing Marshall and In a few
minutes "Bill" had his friend Rol
and Andrews of the American inter
ested. Marshall became a trifle ruf
fled at the questions and In his
eagerness to propound his 'doctrines
placed his fist too close to Andrew'
face. The newspaperman did not
like It for a cent and something
might have happened if Marshall
were not in the carriage. Just, as
the man who is stumping for the
good citizens league, so he says, fin
ished. Scoop's automobile put in an
appearance. The driver of the hack
whipped up the horses while the
crowd turned their attention to
"Scoop. '
- While Marshall waa speaking he
certainly made Scoop' reputation
look bad, that is if the things he
said were true and he had a raft of
legal documents showing that a cer
tain Matthew E. O'Brien had done
time for various thefts.
Marshall went on to tell how Mat
thew . E. O'Brien of Providence,
haf whera "Scoop" came from had
been convicted of defrauding a Wil
liam Barnes of 110. his nne ana
mats amounted to 138.09 and being I
unable to pay it the prisoner velt '
to i99UmJMnzi ft?g7
Tht via in thn vear 1889 when
Scorp is said to have been twenty
one1 years of age. HI jail number
was 10.S62 and he was . termed . a
"poor prisoner." ' .
Again in April of the same year
he was sentenced for theft and
served a couple of months in the
county : Jail. In fact MarshalL had
about a dozen indictments including
one which said that O'Brien had
stolen six - silver watches and had
got away with them only to be rec
ognized as the thief when be was
being sentenced for another crime.
Again Marshall accused jgcoop of at
one time entering a hosrse where a
number of girls were stopping and
stealing everything he could lay his
hands upon. There" was another
which said that because of poker
playing he was so much behind In
his accounts for certain flrrms where
be was employed that he was arr-
rested. .
Marshall went on to tell , that
O'Brien pretended to be a Roman
Catholic but that he renouneed his
faith to saft his purpose. In the past
few years he has been a Catholic, an
Episcopalian and a Methodist. Mar
shall called him everything from an
ex-convict to a brow beater of the
worst kind.- . ,
He went on to tell how O'Brien
was such a reprobate that the Con
necticut Bar association would have
nothing to do with him. He did not
fail to mention how this O'Brien of
whom he talked had been i chased
from a certain town because of his
attack on the Catholic faith. In fact
there was so much against O'Brien
that Marshall termed him one of the
worst ever. All the legal documents
looked genuine and he showed pic
tures of the Matthew E. O'Brien of
whom he apoke and Scoop both look
ed much' alike. . v -
When Marshall finished the trouble
began. Mr Bolster shouted: ... i
"Whose interests are you working
for?" ' '
' "For the good citizens who have
been wronged by this man," replied
Marshall. t
"Areiyou not working for the Cav
anaugh Whiskey Co of Ohio?" con
tinued the minister.
: "I should say not," said Marshall,
"and have never labored for a liquor
syndicate." .
Mr Bolster said a few words him
self then but Marshall informed him
he was the speaker and that the oth
ers were there to simply ask ques
tions. !
W. J. Pape made his appearance.
Bill went right at him. He said he
was no prohibitionist, but that he was
interested to know who was paying
the bills of the hack brigade. "The
good citizens of the state,' replied Mr
Marshall. "Who are they?" again
asked Pape.
"You don't suppose I am going to
tell you their names do you?" replied
Marshall. ' ' . '
, "Sure," came from some one In the
crowd. ' Pape and Marshall got their
heads closer and the conversation re
sumed. But at this point there was
such a storm of questions that Mar
shall had to remind the audience that
he could not answer them all at once.
He got Pape to admit the papers
which he showed looked genuine
enough and that he believed they
were true, and thenjie sent up a big
yell. It was a few moments later that
Anrewi tec a hand and there was
so much ex .'.tmnt that the driver
r'---t r? fe ririo?s and fUrtel
i - ,- . ,.T r- -n t
big cheer as they left the square. '
Scoop's auto was draped with ban
ners urging the voters to cast their
ballots for Chafln, the prohibition
candidate. Scoop was introduced by
the Rev Mr Bolster. Before the can
didate started to speak an editorial
taken from the Bridgeport Telegram
of this morning was read by Ernest
Smith of this city, a member of tne
executive committee of the prohibi
tion party.
Scoop said he was not there to de
fend himself against the charges of
Marshall.. What if they were true.
It happened twenty years ago. A sa
loon keeper, he said, can be convict
ed and a year later has a new reputa
tion. An upright citizen If he should
happen to err should certainly be
able to live it down in twenty years.
He denied the charges and said Mar
shall would have a chance to prove
them in court. He then went on to
tell of the "death, destruction and
damnation" caused by rum. He
spoke of the finished product turned
out by the factories. "Do you think
the finished product Is the bottles
you see in the windows? Oh, no;
the finished product is the bum."
He declared a thief was a much
better man than a saloon keeper, and
referred to pious fellows who. occupy
their news on Sunday while during
the .rest of the week they dealt out
"death, destruction and damnation,
one of his favorite expressions. '
He attacked both Robertson and
Lilley,, referring t the latter arthe
candidate of the lobbyists and - the
former as the candidate, of the men
who control even the lobbyists. He
was in poor voice, due undoubtedly
because of the numerous speeches he
has been making. 4
He was followed by M. J. Fanning,
a hired campaigner. '
: O'Brien on his way from Torring
ton made speeches at East " Litch
field, Harwinton, Thomaston and
Plymouth. From here he. went to
NattgatucHjtand expects to make
speeches M Beacon Falls, Seymour,
Ansonia, Derby and Shelton to-day.
Marshall seemed to have the drop
on Scoop in this city and the prohi
bition candidate did not have any
thing on his opponent -when it came
to getting applause. Both speakers
were heard by the same people for
the most part There were some tee-
,.,. omm hn taba drink no
casloaally, .afew "' of ,ihe-r finished
product add some "who "spree" now
and then. - 'The crowd numbered
about 200.
, It is the general' impression that
Marshall and his party are traveling
for a liquor house. ' '

Long Island Motor Parkway, Oct
24. James Florida, with his big 120
horse power Thomas car, crossing the
starting line at 6:3 0a. m. to-day,
started the Vanderbilt cup automo
bile race, in the presence of a crowd
which, counting the people all along
the course, was estimated at approxi
mately 200,000 persons. .
i No 2, Knox 40 horse power, driven
by Dennlson, fCllowed one minute la

man Mercedes, and they were follow
ed, a minute apart, by Nos 4, 5, 6, 7,
8, 9, and so on. No 10, the French
Brasler entry, did not start. When
the last entry, No 20, a "Knox, driven
by Uourque, left the line at 6:49 a.
m., the French Renault, No 17, had
not yet started, and she did not get
off until 7:14. '
Florida, No 1, was. the first to com
plete the course, his time being given
officially as 23 minutes, 10 seconds,
but the best time on the first lap was
made by Robertson, driving the Lo
comobile, No 16. His time was 20
minutes, 54 seconds,
- Soon after the start . reports of
trouble began to reach the grand
stand. Foxhall Keene, who had not
been seen since being sent away at
the start, was reported with his car
ablaze at Locust Grove. In a few
minutes, however, he was again in
the race and as he passed, completing
the circuit, there was a flutter, of
handkerchiefs ' and a clapping of
gloved hands from the grand stand.
Patschke, in No 11 Acme, however,
was out for all time., having broken a
cam shaft . after completing two
rounds.
Matheson. No 15, driven by Chev
rolet, has a cracked shoulder, at Jeri
cho, and is out of the race.
A cold and penetrating drizzle
which however had no appreciable ef
feet in reducing the multitude which
had Journeyed miles and stood hours
to witness it, ushered in the running
of the fourth Vanderbilt Cup race to
day. As the day broke, sinister and
cold, much of the plcturesqueness of
the scene vanished. .
The grand stand had filled in spite
of the unpropitious skies and' in the
very front notables of society and fi
nance sat in huddled discomfort, the
fine spray covering them with a shim,
merlng dew. Here, and there umorel
las were raised. Pennants and flags
flapped damply and even programme

were sent off to clear the road of
automobiles and vehicles. In. the
sunken pits in front of the grand
stand the- tire repairers stood ready.
piles of inflated tires and spare cans
of oil and gasolene close at hand.
The Thomas, No 8, which, being
overweight, had been refused permis
sion to start, came snorting up to its
repair station apparently all ready
for the fray. Upon investigation it
was found that the car was not the
original entry1 but a regular 45 horse
power stripped stock car which had
been substituted at the last moment
ror tne original entry. J. M. Sey
mour was at the wheel. '
While the final preparations were
being made at the starting line, con
tusion reigned at the Westbury turn
where a stout hawser was drawn
across the Jericho turnpike to pre
vent belated automobiles from Invad
ing the course. The crowd at this
point overflowed Into the road and
for a while it seemed as if the scenes
which marred the last Vanderbilt
race would be repeated. The rain
stopped as one by one the big racers
took position back of the tape. The
first to arrive waa Kllpatrick in the
125 ; horse power No 8 Hotchklss.
Close behind. Gill in the Thomas No
19 came sputtering. W. K. Vander

Jefferson De Mont Thompson, chair
man oi . tne racing board, assumed
management and the Irish volunteers
cleared the course in quick time. By
this time all the racers were in line
awaiting the word. Promptly at

his top speed, romped down the road
and swung neatly arofnd the turn to
the left, his motor firing a fearful
volley. Both men were equipped in
rubber ponchos and were prepared for
wet roads.
At the end of the 9th the race
had been a hair raising struggle be
tween Robertson and Lytle. In spite
of having to literally plow their way
through surging masses of humanity
that only parted wide enough to
let both pass clear bow one now the

At a meeting of the directors of
the Waterbury Business Men's asso
oclatlon to-day it was voted to re
commend to the merchants of Water
huty that all places of business be
closed Monday until 1 o'clock In the
afternoon: president R. P. Lewis, W.
S. Jones, B. W. Tinker, L. L. Lewis,
Philip Curran, were chosen as a
committee to draft suitable resolu
tions expressing the feeling of the
association regarding the death of
Monsignor Slocum. The committee
prepared the following peamble and
resolutions:
- Voted, That a committee be ap
pointed by the president to draft suit
able and proper resolutions with ref
erence to the decease of the late
Right Rev Monsignor William J. Slo
cum. In accordance with said vote the
following resolutions were passed:
Whereas, It has pleased Divine
Providence to remove from our midst
the Right Rev Monsignor William J.
Slocum in the ripeness of age, and
Whereas, His high character, his
pre-eminent abilities and his remark,
able personality have all served to
render his death a municipal loss;
Now, therefore, It is by the mem
bers of the Waterbury Business Men's
Association, Incorporated, resolved:
That It is eminently fitting and
proper that the members of this as
sociation record their sense of irre
parable loss to the citizens of this city
by the taking away of a man so high
ly esteemed and loved, and who was
ever ready to lend his great learning
and wide experience to all men.
We esteem it a great privilege to
testify to our high appreciation of his
faithfulness and earnest devotion of
his high calling, his long service to
the people of Waterbury, not only
through his ministerial office, but as
a good citizen to take the lead in the
advancement of the public weal. His
was a nature that detested cant and.
hypocrisy. Just, manly, honest, serious
in all that concerned the obligations
of his sacred calling, companionable,
a scholar of transcendant worth.
It Is Further Resolved, That a copy
of these resolutions be spread upon
the records of this association, and a
copy sent to the Rev Father James E.
O'Brien, acting pastor of the church
of the Immaculate Conception.

Everything Is now In readiness for
the funeral of Monsignor Slocum
which will be held at the Immacu
late Conception church at 10 o'clock
Monday" morning. It is expected
that the funeral will be the largest
ever seen in the state. The officer
of the mass will be the same as an
nounced yesterday, with the excep
tion of the honorary deacons, whose
services will be dispensed with. The
canon law of the church does not
permit the presence of honorary
deacons on such an occasion unless
the ceremony is being conducted by
the bishop of the diocese, hence the
slight change, the celebrant being
Bishop Beaven of Springfield.
The office for the dead will be
chanted at 9:30 o'clock Monday
morning and the mass will be com
menced half an hour later.

A Tribute to Monsignor Slocum.
I write these lines with a sad heart,
In memory of him who did depart
From out our midst to dwell abova
In God's celestial home of love,
And we are left to mourn his loss,. ,v
An added weight to every cross ,
That alike to all mankind is given,
Which paves for all the road ta
heaven. , . ..
Farewell, Monsignor, honored priest,
No more our loving eyes will feast
On you in robes of purple hue.
As oft you passed before our view,
Till sickness came and laid its band
On you, our priest, noble and grand.
You suffered much without - com-
plaint,
Sweet pattern of a holy saint .
Surely our God knew best of all
When you to his blessed home hs)
called,
To. reward you for your toil and
prayer,
For a crown of glory you now do
wear.
Though we will sadly miss your face
From its old and customary place.
We are glad to think your soul la
there,
Peaceful and happy in God's own
care. , .
Farewell, Monsignor, thrice happy
blessed, -
God grant to your soul sweet peace
and rest. . ,.i
