j Cm BRADLEY. NIANTIC, Aug. 16th,
l894.—0n invitation of Company B, of
Bridgeport, the only company in the
state which voted to accept uncooked rs-
tions, Colonel Frost, of the Fourth,
and Colonel Tyler, command-
ing the Third regiment, took din-
nor with the company yesterday.
"Colonel Tyler is a retired regular army
officer, and is greatly interested in the
plan of having the organization of the
brigade equipped with cooking and mess
apparatus. When the new military law
went into effect last June, which pro-
vided that the commissary general should
provide subsistence for the troops,
Colonel Tyler advocated the furnishing
to the military organizations with camp
cooking outfits, and having cooks
and waiters detailed from
the enlisted men. His plan was
hardly thought practicable, but when
Company B refused to take the meals
furnished by contract, and chose the un-
cooked rations, Colonel Tyler’s plan was
the only feasible one. The state fur—
nished that company a cooking appara-
tus which is used in scouting and march-
ing service in the regular army. lt con-
sists of a large square oven made of sheet
steel, with a cover reaching from the top
three-fourths of the way down. Upon
this can be placed on legs a smaller oven
or a large frying pan. In addition there
are two tin boilers for slewing, boiling
and making coffee and tea. The oven
and boilers rest about one foot from the
ground on iron legs. Fire is placed be-
neath them, and on top of the oven and
on top of the smaller oven
or frying pan additional fire
is placed. There can be roasting,
frying, boiling and stewing all at the
' same time for seventy-five men. When
this apparatus is properly understood and
managed, the cooking is equal to that
done on any kind of a range. All the
other apparatus can be packed in a large
oven, which is about twenty by thirty
inches, and about twelve inches deep,
and the total weight is about one hun-
dred and fifty pounds. After the dinner
Colonel Frost told the men that the din-
ner they had given him was the best he
had had at this encampment, and a bet-
ter cooked dinner he had never had in
the field. Colonel Tyler was very enthu-
siastic. He heartily congratulated the
company on their departure and ex—
pressed his gratitude to them for practi-
cally demonstrating that the plan he had
advocated could be made a success. He
stated that he should have every com-
pany officer in his command inspect
Company B's method of cooking and
serving their food, and he predicted that
at the next encampment many of his
companies would follow the example set
byOornyany B. He thought that this
system would work a transformation in
furnishing subsistence for the troops in
camp, and would in; companies for active
service in the field, making them indu-
pendent of any sources outside of the
service for their food supply. The bill-
cars and members of l 'ompiiny ll heartily
enjoyed the presence of the two colonela,
and gave them hearty applause upon
their remarks.

GOVERNOR MOHBIS' RECEPTION-
A Brilliant Gathering of Military Men at
the Fort Griswold House.
(Special correspondence to Tn!) HINTINEIJ
CAMP BRADLEY, NIANTIC, August 17,
ism—A special feature of camp life,
Wednesday, was the contest between the
bicycles, flags and heliograph for pro-
ficiency in signaling from New London
to camp, the distance being about eight
miles. The sky was partly obscured. and
it was found impossible to use the helio-
graph. Lieutenant Jenkins began to
call the intermediate stations, and in the
meanwhile the message was delivered to
the cyclists, who brought it into camp
by relays of every mile in exactly twen-
ty-siXominutes. The flagging kept on
until nearly 2 o’clock before the men suc-
ceeded in getting the message into camp.
The message contained fifteen words and
was written and sent by George A. Stur-
dy, city editor of the New London Tele-
graph, to Brigadier-fieneral Haven, and
read as follows:
Congratulations on the success of Camp
Bradley. Most successful of any in his-
tory of State.
Governor Morris and his staff were
tendered a reception, last night, at the
Fort Griswold House in New London.
The affair was largely attended by Well-
known militiamen and regular army
officers and many prominent citizens
from Connecticut and surrounding
States, and was a very fashionable gull.-
ering. These events were extremely
popular in Ninntlc several years ago, and
a return of similar festivities is prom-
ised in the future. The governor, ec-
companied by his staff and ladies, left at
7 o'clock last evening from the Crescent
Beach (lock, in the steamer Osprey,
which was specially provided for the
purpose. The reception committee was
composed of the following: Chairman,

RIVIL TBllLLEl LlllES.
A LITTLE TIFF BETWEEN THE
TWO COIPANIES.
The Cars of the West Avenue system
stalled on Wall Street by the Shutting
out of the Electric Current by the
Tramway People.
There were lively times on Wall street,
yesterday afternoon, occasioned by a
strife between the Norwalk Tramway
company and the Nor-walk Street Rail-
way company over a misunderstanding
regarding the compensation for power in
running care through Wall street, for
a distance of about nine hundred feet,
where the rival lines have joint trackage.
The agreement was that the current
for the Wall street portion of the line
waste be furnished by the Norwalk
Street Railway company six months and
by the Norwalk Tramway company for
the Sremainder of the year, one com-
pany paying the other a mileage fee, ac-
cording to which furnished the power.
The West avenue company agreed
to run the section for the first six
months and the contract was signed.
When the power plant was being cons-
tructed President E. J. Hill, of the Street
Railway company. suggested that the
Tramway crmpany run the section a
day or so, asthe Street Railway com-
pany's machinery, being now, would
probably not give satisfaction at the
start, and there would be frequent stop-
pages until the machinery got to running
good. It is said that the Tramway com-
pany favored this, and the Street Rail-
way offlcers supposed the matter had
been settled. A few days ago Mr.Whitney
the superintendent of the Electric Light
station, where the companies power
plants are located,suggested that the
Tramway company run the section
or the first six months. The Tramway
officials would not agree to this.
Yesterday afternoon, about 3 o'clock,
Joseph Button, a Tramway electrician
got off of a car and proceeding to a pole
in front of the Nurwalk Savings hank, he
cut in a loop and put up a switch box.
Secretary Acton, of the West ltvonue
Company, came along and asked Mr. But-
ton whst lie was doing. lie was inform-
ed by thc lineman that he was putting in
a meter. Mr. Acton gave the matter no
further thought or attention, and went
to the our house. Shortly afterwards
the can”)! the Street Railway company
were continually losing power and be-
coming stalled. Afler an examination
of the rolling stock it was decided that
the trouble was at tho power station.
The Tramway lineman, however, knew
what the trouble was, and that the Street
Railway company‘s cars mold only run
through that section of Wall street at
the same time that the Tramway cars
did, because that "meter" he had cut in
was doing its work thoroughly, and the
Tramway current was turned on only
when their own cars were passing.
Afteranhourof this kind of work,
whlch drew quite a crowd around the
switchlmx, the Strci-t Railway officials
discuvcrml (be trouble, and Secretary
Acmntokcd the lineman by what an—
lhorlty bolnid put in the switch. Ilf‘
was toll that the Tramway company
lunl Ul’fll‘f'l‘d the switch put in and oper-
ated for the benefit of the Tramway
cure. The secretary then hustled one of
thcfitri-ct Railroad company‘s linemcu
down to the depot and put in a jumper,
ohurglngthe Wall street circuit from
the current of the Winnlpruilr branch.
This 'MIlIrIlllfI on or off as the street
curs worn passing over tho section by
putting the two wires together. Occu-
slonly both linemen would turn the cur~
rout from the two made into the circuit
at 01100. and this would shake things up
generally with the iriuchincry at the
Electric Light station. To remedy this
the litrcct llailwny ra'oplc informed the
Tramway lineman to leave his currcnt
cut out and they Would furnish the pow-
er for tho circuit until the dispute was
settled.

office during ihcslrlfc. and the matter
was satisfactorily adjusual. flaring the
time the dispute lasted, from lizllflo’cloclt

CANNIBALISM AT ROTON.
”Lab-tors" Eat their own Rind and Much
other Delicious Seafood.
The Lobster club, of the Twenty-third
ward, New York, visited Roton Point
yesterday afternoon for their annual shore
dinner. The party, numbering about
270, came up on the steamer “Black
Bird," arriving at 12:15 o’clock. Prepara-
tions were at once made for the feast,
which was served in the pavilion. The
jolly Lobstera sat down to dinner at 3:30
o‘clock and for an hour and a half they
ate and drunk to their siomauhs’ content
at ten long tables, devouring a bill of
fare composed of roast lobster, clams,
chicken, corn, and various side. dishes.
The king Lobster of the occasion was
President Diece, and Vice-president
Wilke acted in‘ the capacity of overseer.
At 4:30 o’clock the members gave three
rousing cheers for their club, which an-
nounced the completion of the feast.
The excursionists were accompanied by
the Miller brass band, of New Yorkr
which rendered selections at intervals
during the feast and on board the boat.
Before and after dinner the members en-
joyed themselves by playing foot ball.
pitching quoits and engaging in the vari-
ous other pastimes at the Point. Each
member wore a blue yachting cap, adorn-
ed with a gilt clam shell pin on which
was fashioned a lobster. The start for
home was made about 6 o’clock. Mayor
E. O. Keefer and err-Warden John D.
Kimmey, of Norwalk, were guests of the
Lobster’s during the feast. Among
others who picnicked at the Point, yes.
terday, was the Congregational church
and Sunday school, of Duties.
SOUTH NOR“ ALK IGNORE".
A More that Will Not Enhance Mr. Hill's
Popularity in thls City.
The Norwslk Street Railway company
seems to have ignored the fact that there
is such a place he South Norwalk. The
City of Norwalk, Winnipauk and
the New York, New Haven and Hartford
, Railroad company are the only places or
corporations recognized by its signs.
The impression prevails in South Nor-
walk that it might be desirable for people
using the cars of the Norwalk Street
Railway company, to be informed that
the (care conveyed passengers to South
Norwalk. This may be a consolidation
move on the part of E. J. Hill, but it is
not making him popular as an aspirant
for congressional honors. it is quite
generally known that the New York,
New Haven and Hartford Railroad silk
tion is located in South Norwalk, and it
would be courteous treatment on the part
of the Street Railway company to recog-
nize the thriving city that has made it
possible for a line of street railway to be
maintained between the City of Norwalk
and the station of the New York, New
listen and llurtforil railroad.
