OPPOSE CONSOLIDATION.
Many Stamfordites do not Favor the
Plan—Senator Keneaiy Opposed.
'l‘lIc proposition of Mayor Cummings
to consolidate the town and city gov-
ernments of Stamford is meeting a
stronger opposition than was generally
expected. SGllillOI‘i‘lQCt Kencaly in an
interview spoke strongly against the
proposition and said saving could be
made by the adoption of a plan WilOl‘CI
by the assessment and collection of
taxes might be made for town and city
by one not of officers. instead of two.

it is claimed by those whd do not
invm the plan that towns that have
consolidated the governments have
had no such extent of sparsely settled
territory as Stamford. which has 18
square miles of farm land. Several fa-
vor a proposition to split the town in
two. and to have a consolidated gov-
ernment for the southern half.
Muym' (‘ummings has not yet ap-
pointed a committee in consider the
question of consolidation and report to
the Common Council.
GROWTH OF FRENCH JACOBiN
CLUBS.
A Jacobin club was established at
Marseilles before the end of 1739, and
within the first six months of 1790 one
was organized in each of the large
towns. But it was :Ificr the national
federation. July 14. 1790. that Jacobin
influence spread most rapidly.
'l‘lIeII bioncli societies began to bc
mgauized all over Franco and iis an
aid to this the club at Paris in ilic nu
tuinn of 1790 founded the Journal dos
Amis do in Constitution. of which La-
clos became editor. 'l‘bc journal spread
Jucobln opinions and increased rapids
ly the organisation of clubs. Before
the end of the your an10s was able to
publish a list of over 120 [Il'OVlllCllll
clubs. By 1791 there were nearly 400.
in July of the next. year this number
had increased to 1.200. and when the
republic was entablishel excellent au‘
thority estimates the number of aini-
iated clubs at 20.000. one for every com-
iuune in France.
Very soon these clubs became cen-
ters of the advanced revolutionary feel-
ing. The young radicals of the pro-
vincial town flocked to them. and
through them they controller! local
politics. in Paris. Lyons. Alx and Bar
deaux there were two clubs. One was
composed of the more respectable and
the other of the lower elements of so-
ciety. The latter was always a branch
of the former and in times of urgent
need supplied it with riotcrs.~—Cliainii-

WIRES UNDER GROUND.
The Greenwich Trumvyny Company
Is likely to be confronted with another
difficulty before it succeeds in com-
plating its line through the borough
streets. Those who opposed the trol
icy thus far. are forced to the conclus~
ion that the railway will be built upon
such streets. an the company may duo
sire. They havenow petitioned the
warden and burccsncs to compel the
company to rim itii wires underground.
through the borough. The board has
the matter - under consideration.
Should they decide in favor of the un-
derground system of wiring. the Tram-
way Company will be put to large on
penile. and a fight in the courts will
probably be the result. The work of
building the road III being pushed
along rapidly through Byram. Very
little is heard now regarding the pro-
posed route through the borough. and
it is understood that the company has
agreed .to change the route somewhat,
thus cutting off the residential portion
of the upper end of the borough.
