Get the Vote Out.
All the Republicans of the State need to do
to succeed in electing their State ticket is to
make a special exertion to bring out a full
vote. The party in Connecticut is hampered
by no divisions, and there are no embarrass-
ments of any kind to excuse any lack of
effort. We must remember that the Demo-
crats have the powerful aid of the liquor

account of its own defense a supreme effort

Old Papers.
A. Van Name, librarian of Yale College,
was in town recently, examining and pur-
chasing the extensive files of the New York
Herald and New Haven Palladium, belong-
ing to the estate of the late A. S. Lawrence.
The files of the Herald were complete for
the period during the war, and from 1867 to
1874. The weekly Palladium was filed from
1886 to 1857, and from 1803- to the present
time. There were also files of local papers
from their establishment, including one con-
ducted by' Senator O. H. Platt and R. W.
Lewis in 1852, under the title of the Wild].

New Draw—Bridge Signals.
President Watrous, of the Consolidated
Road, says that the Consolidated Road has
under consideratidn the adoption of a mechan- .
ical contrivance designed to do away with
the necessity of stopping of trains at draw-
bridges in this State. One is now being
manufactured for the purpose of being tried
at the Norwalk draw as an experiment,-and
if its workings proves satisfactory, it will be
applied to all the draw-bridges on the line of
the road.
There is no electricity employed in its
workings, as has been stated; it is purely
mechanical and automatic. It is operand
by the act of opening the draw. When the
draw is swung back a system of connecting
rods or wires, or both, hoists two sets of
signals on each side of .the bridge. The
furtherest is perhaps 1,500 feet distant from
the bridge. This is the signal which warns
the engineer to bring his train to a stop and
not to start up again until the lowering of
the signal shows that the draw is closed. If
the engineer does not heed this signal to
meet this emergency there is another signal
from 500 to 800 feet distant from the bridge,
and at this signal is a switch, which is also
opened by the, opening of a draw, and which
turns the train of! upon a siding instead of
allowing it to run ahead into the open draw.

Au Appeal to Mr. Vanderbilt.
The business men who reside along the
lines of the New York Central, the Harlem
and the New Haven Railroads, and who are
carried through the' tunnel at least twice a
day, have united in presenting a request to
Mr. Vanderbilt suggesting that improve-
ments be made in that extremely dangerous
structure. In the first place they ask that it
be lighted by electricity. In the second they
urge that the “ block ” system in the moving
of trains be introduced. These surely are
very reasonable requests, and we do not see
how Mr. Vanderbilt can well refuse to grant
them unless he really entertains the senti-
ments towards the public whichthe sensa-
tional reporters of Chicago recently attribu-
ted to him. ;
$20,000 Voted.
At the adjourned special town meeting

bridgc. ‘

Stephen Hoyt’s Sons’ Great
Barn Burned in New
Canaan, Sunday atone _
O’clock a. m.
It Horses sol—Ni towsilomed
this.
A little after one o’clock Sunday morning
the great Farm and Nursery Barn of the
Capt. Stephen Hoyt Sons, was discovered to
be 'on fire. At the time it was first seen
the fire seemingly enveloped every portion
of the exterior and interior of the great
structure. The large force of hired men
employed on the farm and in the nursery
department, were sleeping in their apart-
ments above the Nursery ofiicc just across
the roadway and about sixty feet southerly
from the barn, and were the first to discover
the fire; but too late to save a, scrap of
anything _in or about it. A German lad
sleeping with the, men in the building
says he heard a crackling sound and a noise
like the bellowmg of cattle in “ his ears, be-
fore he could :get his eyes open and thought
he was draining about it.
On the men rushing out of their beds and
half dremd, the whole of the enormous
barn was enveloped, and although they made
frantic efforts to burst open the doors to
extricate the animals, all- was unavailing
and every one perished in the flames.
When the owners, Messrs. James an
Edwin Hoyt arrived at the scene of the
confiagration, the entire roof ,of the barn
was just tumbling into the, raging torrent
of flame, devouring everything below.
Soinfiammable was the building and its
contents, that it was but a few moments
after their arrival that their enormous barn,
probably the largest and most completely
,equipped of any in this county or in the
whole State was a heap of ashes.
Their ofiice building and packing house
caught fire several times and would also have
been destroyed, but for a vigorous. use of a
force pump and hose which chanced to be at
hand, and the heroic aid rendered by Eddie
Harry and Jimmy Kelly, lads born and
reared upon the Hoyt place, who climbed
out the windows, 'thence clinging only to the
cave trough, get out and upon the roof and
there battled the fire till burned nearly to
blistering themselves.
In the at barn and burned to crisp.
were cleven‘horses, every one the Hoyts
had, one pair of which theybad just pur-
chased, and were extra fine carriage animals,
costing them 3250 each. Every can of their
herd of milch cows,26 in all, several of
them valuable Jerseys and the" whole of them
of extra value for their superibr milk and
butter qualities. Mr. Byington, of the Ga-
za'rrn, had his three thoroughbred Jersey
cows,—"Flora 3d,” “ Daisy”'and “Nerwalk
Buttercup,” there as , boarders, for the
winter, and they too were burned up with the
rest. Flora 3d was g._ d. of the famous
“ Bridget" imported by the late Col. Sam
091: of Hartford, a prize animal in the
. Island of Jersey. and claimed to have 'mgdc’
twenty-eight pounds of butter per'*‘week.
‘ ‘f Butter Cup" was out ofiFlora and S. M.’
Burnham’s Imported “Dana," and has been
conceded to be one cf“'the'v handsomest
Jerseys in the State. She was, proving her-
self like her dam, to be an extra good cream
and butter animal, and although of;large
pecuniary value, her loss is chiefly felt as
one of the family pets.
Fortunately the Messrs. Hoyts had not
put their oxen in the barn Saturday night,
but left them to graze in the field, and thus
their four pairs bf extra large and fine
working cattle were saved, as were a few
head of young stock, also left out to
pasture. . These burned cows had been
carefully selected with special reference to
their cream and butter producing qualities,
WII e hercfor n n..ii.....:i..
“1d er t mem ers of the
household as pets and favorites.
All the principal utensils and nursery
tools were in the barn, as was their large
8 horse truck, farm wagons and every har-
ness they owned.
In the barn was a power thresher, power
wdod saw, fanning mill and two power hay
and stalk feedcutters. Nearly one hundred
tons of hay, about $500 worth of rye in the
straw; all their crops of buckwheat which
had just been thrashed out was lying on the
barn floor, in all, from 75 to 100 bushels;
150 to 200 bushels of cats, 75 bushels of
which they had carted from Holmes do
Keeler’s, Norwalk, on Friday; 50 to 75
bushels of corn; 10 bushels of field beans
and several thousand feet of board lumber fer‘
the manufacture of their tree boxes, all of
which were totally consumed,
' Their total insurance was $7,50Ib$1,000
on horses'and cows; $2,000 on contents of
barn; $4,500 on the building. Their total
‘ loss above the insurance cannot fall short of
ten thousand dollars. They had for years
carried $8,500 on the barn alone, but the
discreditable sharpness of the insurance
“adjusters” in settling up their homestead
loss, burned last yeqr, was such as to lead
them to reduce that amount down to $4,-
500.
‘ The origin ’ of the fire is an entire mystery
to the Messrs. Hoyt. They cannot resist
the universal belief of the public, that it was
incendiary origin, but as they never had a
difiic'plty with a human being, are large and
always liberal employers, and no one had
cause for enmity against them, thEy find it
impossible to believe that any one could
thus terribly injure them from any motive
of vindictiveness or revenge.
Mr. Edwin Hoyt telephoned to the village
for assistance, and the New Canaan Hook
do Ladder Company immediately responded
and came tearing down Carter street he-
hind a two horse team, but all toolate to
save their barn, but in time to aid in pro-
tecting other property, had their services
been required.
Mr. Edwin Hoyt was at the Republican
Caucus which nominated S. Y. St. John for
Representative at New Canaan village, till
near ten o’clock Saturday evening. It was
after: eleven before he retired and knows
there" was no signof fire at that hour. A
near neighbor passed there about half an
hour after midnight, as he says, and saw no
fire about the barn then. A few moments
laterihc a. it burst forth all over and
about thebprn, and m; to ‘the'houses' of the
two Hoyt brdthers and aroused them. .
All day Sunday, neighbors and friends
came pouring in to proffer their aid-and
heartfelt sympathy. Several offered the
free use of their teams as the Hoyts’ were
left herseless, as well as barniess, and this
their present great loss following so closely
upon that of the burning of the Homestad
dwelling, business office, and smaller barns,
the sixth of April,'1881, makes them/ the
recipients ofrlnniversal sympathy and coin-
iseration. They are hard-working, ener-
getic, public spirited and liberal citizens,
and beloved by every worthy person in their
vicinity, and it is hard to conjecture any
reasonable motive for such, to them, terri-
ble incendiary act. They have always been
prominent Republicans, and quite con-
spicuous in the Temperance cause, and had
~’the reputation, though falsely, of being
foremost in the late liquor- dealer prosecu-
tions in New Canaan. This latter accusation:
is not true, however, as they took no active
[hit in these prosecutions: Of all men in
the vicinity they are preeminently of that
class who mind their own business, and let
others alone.They have'always been earnestly
' for the republican cause, at the local elections
and furnished their teams to the fullest ex-
tent to aid in getting voters to the New
4 Canaan polls. Just before the close of Set-
urday night’s caucus, we are 'told, Mr. Ed.
win Hoyt rose and pledged his best services
as usual, and all his team to aid .in the
- election of their candidate for Represents-
tive just nominated on the Republican
ticket. and their glendg are inclined to
2!
form a theory that these facts and circum-
stances may in some direct or remote way
be connected with their ealamitious loss,
but the Messrs. Hoyts themselves, are un
willing to believe in any su'ch- conjectures,
and it is very hard to deem them to be at all
well grounded. '
Messrs. Hoyt request us to extend their
most grateful thanks to all whose kindly and
promptly rushed to their assistance on the
night of the fire and who have so generously
proffered their sympathy ‘and’ aid to 'them
since. Their foreman, Mr.Edgar Buttery was
especially conspicuous in his effortsto save
their property and one and all of theirhired
men, worked,with s zeal most commendable,
to save their generous employers’ from the
further loss of their other buildings. More
heroic effort or truer fidelity were never seen.
The Hoyts, of course are very much over-
come by their terrible loss. It is for more
severely felt by them than the mere money
o
total interruption of their current business at
a very important season of the year and a
critical period in the care of their young trees
and plants,which require special cultivation
and protection for the winter.
Last year in April, they met with a very se-
vere loss in the incendiary burning of their
homestead mansion. In the October fellowing,
_a still greater loss befell them in the prema-
ture frost which caused them a loss on their
nursery stock of Ynesrly. ten thousand dollars
more. - This 'last misfortune, on top of others
becoiirea a calamaty, but they are men of grit.
and pluck and from these ashes and smoul-
dering remains of these pets of their milk
yard and stable, will at once arise ’a new and
more aubaantial edifice" and their well known .
(enterprise and energy will carry them thro’
and above this disaster as it has all others of
a similar nature. Success to them.
The venerable Mrs. Stephen Hoyt“ and
Mrs. Edwin Hoyt were both overcome by
nervous prostratlon, caused in the case of the
former, by the excitement and by overwork
in the latter, at Sunday morning’s fire. Both
are reported as convalescent. at this writing.

~ Brookslde Hotel_Bnrnedi
About eleven o’clock Friday night a fire.
was seen issuing"'from the windows of the
fine, new ,Summer hotel, completed only in
F August last at a cost of some $18,000, and
located at West Bedding Station, and imme-
diately opposite Brookaido Park. ..It was
owned by Theodore H. Clark, and kept by
his brother, John Clark, nephews of R. H.
Rowen, Esq., of So. Norwalk. ‘ A dinner
was to have been served the newly-elected
board of directors, and other ofiicers of the
Danbury Railroad on Saturday, and at the
time of the fire the landlord was in Danbury
making his purchases for the dinner he was
to give the railroad officials next day. The
hotel property was insured for46,500, and
the furniture for $3,000,’and the loss, was
total. No one was in {he hotel at the time,
and nothing whatever was saved.

The Changes in the N. I. & N H.
- Line. ,. " ‘
Consolidated railer .30 improve their line
of road, brings the question, what are in de-
tail these changes, and how will they effect
' the line through South Norwalk ? We have
not the new map before us,.but so far as we
can learn this town will have its full share of-
changss of grade and some important ones.
both of track lines and lines of sight. In
detail it is reported that the grade from the
easterly town line to the drawbridgc will be
greatly reduced; the grade at the summit, a
few rods easterly from the old Fitch house
at East Norwalk, now forty-five feet to thy
mile, will be reduced cue-half, and as a con-
siderable' portion of' the reduction will be in.
a rock out it will probably be among the first
to be dealt with. while the change of~grade
in earth cuts, or by reducing embankments,
willbe the work of such time as the road-
bed is free from frosts. The grade from the
westerly end of the drawbridgc to the tan-
nel under the track -.thro_ugh which the line
. r» .- .., amuj.nuv»f§ific'ut mgutfinll
be so remedied as to render the approach of
the express up trains to the drawbridgc safe,
and will require the entire removal of two or
threeI buildings on Washington atrectmr. their
reduction to one story flats, so that a full
viewiof the drawbridgc hell can be had be-
fore trains reach the_South Norwalk station.
West of the tunnel the changes are numer-
ous and radical, many sharp curves and
heavy grades are to be'taken Out and a long
stretch, of newline built. The work is heavy'
and a large amount of rock cutting will be
required. This rock cutting is not now
ncarly so formidable as when the road ,was
built, as the new devices for drilling rock,
and the various compounds with dynamite
as a base, which are now used instead of the
old—time blasting powder’, have greatly re-
duced the cost of rock cutting both in time
and money. The Atlas powder, one of these
compounds, did excellent execution at the
Wilson Point extension. ~
The changes in the line at and near Five
Mile River are the most important on the
line and involves much heavy work, and it
is probable that it will be among the first to
be executed On the line.
The extension of the two additional tracks
to South Norwalk instead of Stamford, as at
first proposed, will necessitate the widening
of the road-bed the entire distance, and ad-
ditional right of way will also be required.
In approaching the South Norwalk station
additional land will have to be taken east of
the present tracks from Whistleville, to the
depot. This will partially fill the " pond
hole " recently purchased by the company.
and put several small structures on the east
front of the depot on rollers. When the.
pond hole is filled it is probable that a freight.
house will be located east of their four tracks
at or near Monroe street, to accommodate
their large freight businessInow centered at
South Norwalk and largely augmented by
the terminus of the D.&;N.road there,are very
radical changes and will be'likely 'to " stir
up " the feelings of several property holders
with, but the railroad managers believe that
“ the end justifies the means” necessary for
carrying out these important improvements
to their railroad property.
