The talk of benkruptiug towns and cities by the agency of the new bounty law stems to be all hlk. at least so far as Fairlield county is doomed. The iu~ quirirs that the Bridgeport Morning Union has made of the oliiolals of a num- ber of Connecticut towns lead to this conclusion. In Bridgeport the bounty claims were all paid long ago. In Fair- fleld a gentleman was found who hhd heard of a gentleman who had a claim which he said he might present. Fairlisld is not yearning for the repeal of the law. In Stratford only one man has announced his title to a bounty claim. That one is Bert Cooler, a veteran who spends his summers in Stratford and his winters at the Soldiere' Home. Norotou. His claim is probably genuine. but if it is pruented he will probably have to sue for itln all these towns,how- ever. there is a very general feeling that the old soldier who didn’t get his bounty ought to. even though the hour is late. Good authority in Stratford thinks that the total bounty claims in that town would not amount to more than 31,000. In Newtown it is thought that from two to three claims may be presented. From 0800 to 01.000 would pay the bills there at the outside. But the selections do not expect to be called upon to pay so much. Danbiiry and Norwalk are al- most equally fortunate with the smaller communities. All through Fairllsld county the boun- ty claims appear to have been paid. most- ly before the man went to war. the claims unpaid than being met during the years immediately following. Under the terms of the act nohountyoanbecol- heed except by the msnwhoeawact- usl service.
