thlIllIiAlllNu 1'!!! CAPITAL ITOCK-
'l'lic llnmmliwlmtcrn Favor [lotto tlu- t‘mh
‘ sulltlntutl uml Ilmltttttmtle.
The railroad commissioners sent to the
legislature yesterday their report
granting the petition of the Consolldutetl
and llousatonlc roads for an increase of
stock. The capital stock of the former
was found to be $15,500,000; funded debt
$2,000,000; floating debt September 00,
$1,005,740.09 and now about 2,500,000.
The capital stock and bonds of its rouds
leased for a term longer than fifty years
is $18,002.858.3~f, the present rental of
which is about $040,000. To take up this
stock and bonds with new Consolidated
stock would probably require $12,500.
000, which With present stock and debt
would aggregate $8,000,000. The shore
lino double track and the extended four
tracking of the New York division would
cost $8,000,000. The elimination of grade
crossings will also cost a large amount.
The commissioners soy f urthcr "that un-
dvr those circumstances it was impos-
sible to determinoiu advance the amount
which will be needed, but that in uccor-
dance with the policy of the general
railroad law of the state it limit may be
fixed by defining the uses to which it
may be applied, and the terms upon
which it shall be issuml. We according-
ly recommend that said company be
nutbonzxd to increase its capital stock
for the above, described purposes to such
an amount as shall be actually necessary
then-for. That ailetockissucd for the
purpose of paying the indebtedness of
said company or the cost of improve-
ments or additions to its property wheth-
er (Manual or held under lease, shall be
issued only upon tilt' payment of notices
than one hundred dollars for each share
of stock. That for any stock out so tak»
on the remaining stockholders be allow.
ed to subscribe and takethe some in pro
portion to tlltlf‘ subscription, and in
r-iiher evcotaurquitabio adjustment of
fractional rights to be made. That all
shares not taken or subscribed to as
above, be sold at the New York Stock
Exchange, and the proceeds paid into
the trcmnry of the company. Such sale
to be at public auction, but no stock to
be hold for lees than its par value."
The lloulratonic‘s Increase.
The commissioners find that tbe‘total
capital of the llousstonic's leased roads
is $2,505,071). Improvements and purch-
ases Ctlnlclllpldu‘d demand $4,500,000.
The commissioners say: "We are of
opinion that it is better that the
money required for these purposes should
be raised by an increase of capital stock
rather than by sale of bonds. We ac-
cordingly recommend that said company
be authorized to increase its capital stock
to an anionnt sufficient to pay its indebt-
edness and the cost of constructing any

THE WEST illiElIlLK TRIAL.
'l'fl II\MNNOE 0N T" I? fi’l‘ANID.
ll. tlrunt llouatun'n Hop on Erhlbltlon.
The West Norwalk trial is still in pro-
grass. The court room is packed to suf-
focation and the trial drags wourily
flong but it is not without some humor-
ous features. Transparencies hang
in front of the judge and in the rear
end of the room, U. (lrant Houston’s
celebrated map hangs. This map is
about ten feet square and looks as
though it had been painted by some one
whilslabtiring underusevero attack of
dcierium tremcns or bad just awakened
from a hideous nightmare and had put
the sights which he saw on canvas. It
is enough to give a person the night.
more to look atlt. At the top of the
map is the word universe. immediate-
ly under this word, which is in very
large letters, is a place enclosed with
gates on all sides which is meant to rep-
reprcsent Heaven. On the left
side of the map below this representa-
tion of Heaven, is a place to represent
sheol. This looks something like a pit.
Flying out of this pit is a being suppos-
ed to be the devil. It is part. bird, part
reptile and a combination of everything.
This animal is chained so none may be
afraid of its gettingawav. 0n the other
side of the map is a picture of it stream
running up bill. This is supposed to be
the “River of Life." Underneath this is
alsrge pond or lake, in the center of
which isa head marked off in squares,
like those phrenologists use. On the.
shore of the pond or lako,a locomotive is
running on the ground. Near by is a
building which looks something like a
church but more like an old fashioned
country school house. iightor ten be-
ings. which look like men, are marching
into this building in single file. Various
other as ridiculous figures adorn the
map and on the bottom is the word pat~
outed, and the month and year the pat-
ent was ironed. This fan patent which
there will be no infringement on.
Without a person sees the map he can
have no conception of it. No dime
museum ever hung out a canvas to com.
pare with it.
Mr. l’cnncll was the it. t wimccs for
the defense and be was on the stand
nearly aiidsy. lie seemed to be a re-
liable witness but at times his testimony
as to L'. Grant. Houston's methods in
carrying on 3‘ religious meeting was
laughable to the extreme. When he
was telling about Mr. Houston saying
that he would hold the fort he illustra-
ted it by jumping up and drsheveling
hie hair and sawing the air with his
muncbelodian “We’ll hold the fort"
Judge Selleck, who was taking testi-
mony, jumped nearly two feet, and the
special ms ['1 ared with laughter.
The Vest Norwnlk ladies stood up on
the t‘hlllti-l to get a good view of the
Judge, lawyers and witnesses, and the
’ grind kicking court officer DeForest, kept
aslmrpeyccu them, to see that they
acted with proper dr-portment. Lawyer
Light was all smiles while Lawyer Grey,
who was; opposite Judge Selieck, was
natured. Taken altogether it
sevrns to be a good natured trial, if there
are two factions of church people in
reasonable opportunity to take their pro.

2dr. Fdlow. Secretary of the West Nor-
\v;rlk Union Association, was the witness
this morning, but brynatl testifying that
in» Was secrrtury, nod introducing the
[t'Cter book he did nothing. The largest
purl of the morning was taken up by ob!
jectiuxas by L‘twyer (lray, and then argu-
ruoms between the two lawyers, and
rustling and citing cases from high on-
tl‘mrity, personalties and various other
things in law. The) whole trial isa farce
from RM ginning to end. When the law-
yers would get. into a tilt Judge Selleck
would threaten to adjourn court and
give the lawyers a rest. This would
quiet them down and tho cuss would
proceed.
The court adjourned at 12.30 until
Monday at 9 run.
After the adjournment of the court
the different factions left the courtroom
and went on the street and almost got
to fighting among themselves. Women
shook their umbrellas in each other’s
faces, and each man stood bravely by his
wife and threatened to punch the other
man's brad, and atone time it looked as
though there would ban general fight,
but at last everybody went home. It
was lrvcly for a while.
An Account by the Way of flew York.
A special correspondent of the New
York Morning Journal gives the follow-
ing graphic account of the West Nor-
walk church trouble:
The quiet and very easy-going people
of West Norwalk are all up in arms over
a lively fracus that occurred there and in
which the whole neighborhood, irrespec-
tive of sex, position, ago or color, took a
very active part. \
The trouble originated from a desire
on the part of a certain element to retain
the services of a young man named U.
Grant Houston, who claims to be a col-
lege graduate hailing from Concordia,
XML, and who came to the place about
two months ago, introduced himself,
said he was an Evangelist preaching the
Word, and desired to teach the people
and lead their: in the paths of righteous-
ness and virtue. .
. He was wéll~dressed, oily-tongued, and
possessed such a fund of information on
things divine that be so captivated the
innocent and annuled the suspicious of
the doubtful that they received him sud
readily contented to pay him a] good
salary, contribute round his support
frauds rind yelling in the tone of a Com- ‘
and give him lodgings in the best lamb
lion in the neiqirlmrhriml. ‘or n time the
interest in tho meetings, which by comb
any worn culled revivals. was very great
and the little lllt‘tllln“ bonito wusjcrowded
nightly by sumo of the boat pwplo of the
town.
Houston had fl highly-colored map of
the universe of heaven and of that other
region where the wicked are supposed to
live a life of perpetual anguish and tor-
ment. All these things he would explain
to his audience, and would occasionally
diversify matters by telling stories and
singing sacred songs.
Not long ago, however, it began to
dawn upon some of the more suspicious
ones that they were being imposed upon,
end the more they talked the matter
over the. greater was their belief that the
so-called evangelist warn fraud. Matters
came to a focus a few nights ago when
Houston took his place in the pulpit and
commenced his sermon. He had barely
begun when there was it perfect fusilado
of stones, billets of wood, pieces of turf,
old bottles, shoes, rubbers and old boots.
They were pelted at him from every
quarter, and be found safety by hiding
under the pulpit,-. where for the time
being he woo out oi” range.
Finally, however, he mustered up all
the courage of which he was possessed,
and shouted to a number of his cronies
and followers to old in holding the fort,
as the White (laps were upon them.
Then be rushed for a window in order to
escape, but the mob outside had all the
points of escape well guarded, and be
was quickly seized. Then the now thor-
oughly secured gospel dispenser was lift-
ed bodily over the beads of a bowling,
booting mob, and after a thorough drub-
bing was fired through the open door-
wa .
lEany of the people inside, who were
ignorant of what was on the tnpis until
the rumpus was nearly ovenwere fright-
ened nearly out of their senses and sever-
al women fainted. When the smoke of
battle had finally cleared away matters
were with considerable difllculty adjust-
ed and service under the leadership of
tho fussy little superintendent was
carried out in the old-time religious
style.
Outside, however, a for different scene
was being enacted. Men and boys with
drums, horns and tin-pans paraded the
streets, and awe inspiring trans arencies
bearing rough drawings of a oil and
crossbones, coffins, graveyards and
skeletons, and such motroes as "Go, you
scalawagf’ “Not all dead;" "Our opin~
ion;" "Importer and inflation" “The
fraud must 30;" “We’ve had enough;"
"flats,” passed up and down the one
street in the place and made the night
hideous fill long after midnight.
