John J. Walsh, of Norwalk, is chair-
man of‘the state central committee of
the Democratic party. Mr. Walsh crime
to Hartford yesterday. bringing with
him the dove of peace, but he took the
shy little nird back again. having
learned a good deal more about Demo
erotic politics in this city now than he.
knew when he left home. but not any
more about peace.
it seems that at the recent Bryan
dinner in New Ha1eu. Mayor Sullivan
approached Chairman Walsh with
lamentatlona about the chairmanship
quarrel in Hartford. and asked him. as
the recognized that! of the party. to
come tip here and set things straight.
Mr. Walsh consented and yesterday
was fixed as the date for the peace
congress. Mayor Sullivan called in a.
n labor of friends and suggested to
L airman Campbell to ask some of his
friends in, too. Mr. Campbell asked
'em, and they were there.
it is necessary now to drop into his—
tory a bit before continuing the tale
of yesterday. At the Democratic cau-
cuses last spring ward chairmen were
chosen in the ten wards of too city, in
the Eighth Ward there were two claim-
ants for the uonor-—Dcnis J. McCarthy
and Andrew oneriden. The moderator
of the caucus certified to Chairman
Campbell that McCarthy was elected
ward chairman-and he was so recog-
nized. When the different ward chair-
men, making the town committee. met
tochoose town chairman there were
eleven present out of a possible Ieu
Mr. Campbell settled this by seating
McCarthy. whose certificate from the
moderator he held. The ten members
voted for chairman, and lch of them
voted to re-elcct Campbell, while five
1oted for Alder-nut; Gunning. it was
a tie and, after finding they could not
agree. the members adjourned "sub-
ject to the call of the chairman."
Chairman Campbell haariot railed any
meeting since "lean and» has contented
himself with binding the: form
Sometime after the adjournment an-
other meeting was held without his call
and at that meeting those who Wore
present cast. a majority of their votes
for Gunning. Campbell still held the
fort. He showed no intllnntion to rc~
fire or to can another meeting and
meanwhile each morning found the
spring election a day nearer. Some
people were getting nervous. Those
who know say that it isn't agreeable to

hail the right to dictate who should
have the place.
At tlilti I-‘rInk Sumner was 11p quick
as a wink and asked whether war was
wanted for if it was they would Id.
journ right on and turn it on. Mayor
Sullivan explained that he would like
to dictate, but he didn't want war, for
from it. Attorney Tuttle, whose mod.
est. compensation hangs on Sullivan's
ro-eiectlon, pleaded for harmony. He
deplored discord and any possibility of
defeat.
l-Cx-t‘halrrnan Dillon had now got
rcstivc. and he took it hand in the
harmony proceedings. "lmk here.
Mr. Sullivan." he remarked. 'l’oui‘. man
Dalton in the Sixth Ward told you on
electron day that everything was all
fair and straight. and then he went
and dcfmtcd one alderman and fotir

appointed him five commissioner, and
your man chna went back on his
party in the Eighth Ward and got as a
reward a job at 85 a day inspecting
factories for the state. and you ap-
pointed hlm water commissioner. What
do ,vou say to that?"
Mr. Sullivan said nothing. The room
was its still 111; Mr. Dillon's funeral par-

Mayor Sullivan suggested that Mr.
FltaGerald was usually on the fence.
and at that Mr, FitzGurald got clear
off and freed his mind. Before they
finished their love feast, Mr. Hyde and
Chairman Walsh lined up with Mr.
Sumner and the others who thought a
clean slate was needed and that Grin-
uing must drop out of sight. This was
not what the meeting had been called
for. anti so it was voted to meet again
next Monday night, at the office of E.

it is said that this was one of the
roost remarkable meetings the Demo-
crats of Hartford ever held. The leader
of those who were for a claim slate and
a new deal was Frank C. Sumner. who
when he began talking was not thought
to have the meeting with him. but be-
fore he had finished they were nearly
all on his side and emphatic in en-
dorsing his views. The right of free
speech guaranteed by the constitution
was exercised to the limit, and before
adjournment Editor Burt‘s congratula-
tions on the condition of the Republi-
can party were forgotten.

Sheriff Peter Dooian. Jr.. have been se-
cured in aiding in the hunt.
That is the only elite which is furn-

ing those belongings could not be figur-
ed out according to the theory of
chances. because there is no such thing

Sheriff .Doolan does not despair. how-
ever. He quotes,"'While there's life;
there’s hope." forgetting that. in this
instance it's death that started the

another clue, or who knows of any
body who would be likely to have a

night. It the Norwslk armory. was
the boat contest on the local door for
along time. The Norwok military

no means a hollow victory 0n the
contrary much credit is due. for the
l‘ learn pulled the game out of the
fire, after it had been well singed.
The horrors of the first half were
with the athletes from the batting city.
the score at the end of this period be-
ing in their favor. three to one. As
soon as the umpire blew his whistle
and threw up the ball in the center.
the fun began fast and furious. with
very little difference in the quality of
the playing of either team. Each was
determined to win if possible. and
consequently every player was on his
mettle. The friendly rivalry between
the teams always insures an interest-
ing game.
The first score was F's. on a foul, G
following I little. later with another
foul line goal. Shohn on a pretty
throw landed the sphere into the not.
F had the ball 011 the rim of the op
posltc goal net several times, but it
persistently refused to land inside.
’l no second half was started off with
a rush. with the initial honors all with
the victors. Within probably two min-
utes after the whistle had blown,
Shohn threw two more. goals from the
field. making the score seven to one in
favor of the visiting five.
The basketball “fans" were taking
on dubious expressions on their fares.
but. just about this time i“ began to
wake. up. and when Dorney scored
from the field. there was I minty
about of hope. A moment later. for
to on a long throw landed another field

tied the score with two goals from the
tent line, all of the latent enthusiasm

former President. Hon. John H. For-
ris, to relinquish the position and leave
the onlce vacant. Connected as he has
been with the Hospital from in lneep

votion Ind untiring work by his conn-
