Charles Baristrom. a Swede, aged
about sixty years, without a home, was
walking on the Consolidated railroad

Advlseil to Drink Boiled Water.
A special meeting of the Norwalk
Board of Health was held last night at
the office of Dr. Walter Hitchcock, on
Wall street. The special object of the
meeting was to discuss the prevailing
epidemic of dysentery at that end of the
town. As the cases there outnumber
those in any other part of the town, it is
thought there is some primary entree for
thotI'Ouble. and that it may be in the
city drinking water, as the reservoirs are
low and the water is liable to be impure
After a lengthy discussion, it was voted
to recommend to the public that the
water fordrlnklng be freely boiled before
=’ it Is used, and also to avoid the free use
of ice water.

SATOLLI’S DECISION.
Interest in Connecticut as to What Bish-
op Tierney Will Do.
Bishop Tierney is now in retreat at
Brighton Seminary and his views on
the decision of Mgr. Satelli regarding
saloon keepers and Catholic societies
cannot be learned. It is known. says the
Hartford Courant. that the bishop is a
strong temperance man, and since his
elevation to the episcopacy he has exert-
edall his influence to promote total ab-
stinence among Roman Catholics. While
the decision of Mgr. Satolli has a moral
effect all over the county it has not the
effect of an order except in Bishop Wat-
terson's diocese of Columbus, from
which the appeal came to him. In that
diocese all Catholic societies are forbid-
den to have saloon keepers as officers or
members.
Whether Bishop Tierney will issue an
order in this diocese in consonance with
the decision of Mgr. Satolli is not known.
and it is likely that the bishop himself
has not yet considered the matter. The
Roman aCtholic saloon keepers in Con-
necticut are not much pleased with the
decision of the apostolic delegate, but
they seem to think that Bishop Tierney
will continue as he has been doing, with-
out issuing a formal order.

THE PRESIDENT’S LETTER.
Sharply Gritlclsed by Senators Plants“
llawloy.
A Washington special to the Hartford
Courant says: The reading of the prfl-
dent’s letter to Chairman Wilson. of the
ways and means committee in the House,
created a decided sensation. The mem-
bers of the Cmnecticut delegation in
each house were asked what they
thougt of it.
Senator Hawley said: “No offense so
great has been committed by any presi-
dent. Though nominally a personal lets,
ter. the positive consent given to read
it in the House makes it a message.
Expressly referring to the coming onl-
f'erence, which was already likely to be
sufficiently embarrassing, he thrush .
into the case the personal appeal of an
executive baring tens of thousands of.
offices to bestow, discusses the details
of the. great bill and visits offensive cen-
ture upon the Senate. He forgets that
the powers of impeachment and logic;
lation” are vested exclusively in Con-‘g‘
green.”
Senator Plait: “It is the most aston-
ishing piece of interference on the phrt
of the executive with the legislative de-
partment that the history of the country
has afforded."
Mr. Russell said: “We have the ex-
traordinary and unexampled spectacle of
a president of the United States sending
a message to one branch of Congress in
the form of a personal letter to the chair~
man of its principal committee. This
unconstitutional and unrepuhlican form
of un-ssuge is more than a mere personal
expression of Mr. Cleveland‘s views re-
garding the dual tariff measure of the
lh‘nlUtrrhtlc party. it is an arbitrary dic-
tum for the passage of the Wilson
bill and c. command to the Wil'
awn ounl‘vrem to hold to their
lllemler. It is an ungracious and pell-
lum f‘- mpluint against his own party in
NW ~.-
cum-.1
..u~ ll. seems to me that the in-
l'V'olllL of this message of MI;
View 1 old will be to intensify the disa-
gnelurut between the Demtcrats of the
House and Senate, and to prolong the
controversy which may possibly result
in the defeat of Democratic tinkering
with the tariff and the permanency of
Republican protection. If the message
shall contribute to this end, it may be a
blessing in disguise."
Congressman Stony declined to one
press an opinion on the subject, but Mr.
l’lgoft seemed delighted. lie said: "I.
think the letter is a splendid one. It was
about time for somebody in authority to
menopause the fundamental principiie
of the Democratic parly. Mr. Cleveland
may sometimes make mistakes in appoint»
meats in (kinuecticut, but he is all right
on the tariff. ”
Mr. Del‘orest said: “I think the letter ,3
agood one. i feel with the president pi“
that the fundamental principle of use
reform is free raw material and it must
not be sacraflced. Personally, I would "
rather see the bill fail altogether titan " 1:.
