People in the vicinity of the South
Norwalk Trust Company's building. In
Washington street. this morning, at
9:30 o‘clock, were alarmed by a terri-
fic explosion, and inhabitants of the
various floors of the block felt the
building rock perceptibly. Visions of
another earthquake rose before them.
and a hurried investigation was made.
Secretary Charles,,E. Hoyt. of the
Trust Company, rushed outside. but
everything appeared qtrlct, except for
the gathering of excited people. who
desired to learn the cause of the trou-
itie, Mr. Hoyt then went upstairs and
on the third floor learned that a vul-
cauiaer which was in the rooms occu-
pied by Dr. Anssell E. Morgan, the
dentist, had exploded. The vulcanizer
is operitted by gas. and it appears that
Dr. Morgan placed a set of artificial
tooth in the apparatus, and their went
to treat a patient who was in the
front office.
The presence of the vulcanlzcr was
forgotten until the explosion occurred.
Dr. Morgan hastened to the roar room,
and found it in a state of great confu-
sion. Plaster was torn from the wall
itr several places where sections of the
vulcanizcr had landed. The ceilings
and side walls were blackened, and
portions of the exploding apparatus
were scattered all about the floor. For-
tunately the articles of furniture in
the room were not greatly damaged.

come violently insane, and he will
probably either today or tomorrow be
committed to the state hospital for
the insane at Middletown. 'l‘nticc be-
fore he has been confined lit the sani—
tarlum at \Nestpott ’but though he
was each time discharged as c.ured he
has broken out again violently.
Mr. Benedict is a batter employed by

days Dr. W H. Roan has been observ-
ing Boncdlct and administering treat-
meat and yesterday morning he noti-
fied Selectman Hnnford that Benedict
was liable to become violent at any
moment. Nothing was done by, the
Board of Selectmen, however, and ear-
ly last evening. Benedict became vio-
lent. He raved and tried to break up
the furniture. ills wife sent out for
Arthur Day and another young man
to help her. When they, came he or-
dered them ortt, and knocked one of
them down stairs. They saw that they
could do nothing with him and left.
Shortly after that, he became, more
quiet. and he. and his wife retired for
the night About midnight. however
he awoke and jumped out of bed, yell-
ing 'Fire!" at the top of his lungs.
Hc seized his wife and boy. and appar-
ently was trying to rescue them from
the flames, which be Imagined. Dur-
ing the scuffle. he thrust his finger in
his wife's eye. accidentally, She took
her boy and went down stairs, taking
refuge with the neighbors.
Benedict became very violent then.
and broke all the windows. glassware
and crockery that he could find. He
sustained a had cut on the peso, and
his hands were a mass of cuts and
gushes In a tow moments.
Jesse Avery and Thomas Wood were
called and Officer Walter Hail went
to the scene of the trouble. It was
out of his Jurisdiction. and Sheriff
Sculley' was it fled. He murals
't'ni'l‘yai 'at Saint n'ir‘a'nd want to the

the room where ' nodict watt. He had
turd hardly time to set the lantern on
a shelf when Benedict was upon him.
The sheriff grasped one of Benedict's
hands. and put the handcuff on It, and
after quite a struggle succeeded in
getting the other wrist manacied. He
then tied it avi'eatcr around Benedict's
arms in such a way to act partly as a.
straight Jacket. and took a. coniforta-
blc from the bed and wound It right
around the,insanc man as tight as he
could. This was secured wit horse
blanket pins and Bencdlct was taken
in that way to the carriage. When
the police station was reached, he be-
came more quiet. ,
Town Physician M. L. Cronin w
called. and gave Benedict soothln
medicines and he lay down and slept
for a time. on one of the beaches there.
This afternoon he. was removed to
the Norwalk Hospital. and will be plac-
ed in the padded cell there. Final dis"

HARTFORD. March 33. ~Robert S.
Hlnman again took the stand when the
Norwslk division case was resumed l.to-
day. He was asked by Atorney S
to explain from records of a book ept
In the allies of the Secretary of State
laws of 1889 and also his recallection
of the matter as to when the bill was
transmittodvto the governor. If It. was
vetoed and what became of the origi-
nal number. Mr. Hinmsn said that
the number was used on some trubne
quent bill of an equal number of peg».
" He was then asked to explain why the
next number of a bill- -No 265. here the
date of June 21 while the bills on each
side in number were of May 8. At-
torney Robbins objected. the question
' was admitted and an exception taken.
Mr. Hlnman's explanation was that the
original bill went to the governor on
' May 8 and was afterwards vetoed. On
June 21 a hill occupying the some num-
ber of pages was substituted. Ex-
Seuntor Brown asked the witness if his
answer was based on the records as
shown or by'the method of bookkeep~
ing. The witness replied by the way
the books were kept. Attorney Rob-
bins objected to the question and an-
swcr, but both were admitted and an
exception was taken. Attorney Sperry
offered In evidence a pile of papers
marked House Bill No. 461 for identi-
fication by Mr. Hinman. Witness said
that the notations on the wrapper were
in his own handwriting. Included in
the papers on file were the vetoed mes
sage and the accompanying papers.
Attorney Sperry called the attention
of the committee to the acceptance of
the report of the committee on judi—
ciiil'y on April 23, 1889, and the veto
of the Governor on May 14. The bill
had passed tell House and Senate on
April 26. This bill related to a town
court for Derby. and was finally reject-
ed. Anotherrdle of papers was submit-
ted boaringsoveral notations on the
wrapper. It related to the establish-
ment of a town court in Mannie, and
Mr Hinman identified the number of

1899. the Senate Juno 7. amended June
18, and passed.with five amendments
June 19. Witness was asked if the
number agreed with that which ap-
peared in the private acts of 1889. as
published. The witness thought it did.
Another file of papers was Identified by
the witness as the original of the on
grossed copy of the bill: to which he.
testified yesterday as having been ve-
toed by the. (tumour. The file was of-
fered in evidence of having been sub~
stitu‘ted for bill No. 135, the aubjec
mutter of which was the establishment
of a town court at Greenwich: which
bill was vetoed by the governor.
House Bill No. 272. of 1899. was next
referred to, in which the dates of the
bill proceeding and following It are
Juno 4 and 5. while No. 272 is dated
June 25, indicative of a change Inthe
number of the bill by resurrect a ve‘
toed bill.
The afternoon session, yesterday.
was devoted to a ecnrtltry of a record

of the state in whichzwas indicated thri-
dlsposition of menu which were
sent to the governor his approval
or disapproval. -,, 2
While the session We In progress the
committee suggested.that the lawyers
engaged in the trial should expedite
matters as much as possible. After a
good deal of discussion on this subject,
without any definite progress being
made, the examination of Mr. Hinmar.
was resumed. '
Tire witness produced
book of the secretory of the state's of-
fice and was first asked as to the rec
0rd of a bill vetoed by Governor Mor
gun G. Bulkelcy. This bill establish
ed a court In the borough of Green
wich. According to the record the bill
went to the governor on May 8. 1889.
The record then showed that it was re.
ceived in the secretary‘s office on May
21 and was engrossed. sent to the gor-
ernor and approved by him on the
same day.
The testimony was objected to and
Mr. Sperry said he Intended to show
that the figure "8" had been erased
from the record and the figures "21"
inserted. The reason for this. beheld,
was that the bill had gone back to the
secretary's onioe after the legislature
had minded to the suggestions of the
governor ind passed the bill according-
.ly. Thin would show that the bill but

PRESSES HIS OPINION.
NEW YORK. March 23,—A letter
has been received by the Rev. James
B. Dunn. D. D., of this city from
Lieutmneral Nelson A. Miles, in
Vwbich the general expresses the epic.
ion that the temperance party chauld
make no nomination for the presidency
this year until after the two great poll.
tical party conventions have been held.
“Should either make such a. nomina-
tion.” General Miles says. "and an-
nounce’ such principles as will corn-
mnnd the approval and cordial support
of those whom you represent, the op-
portunity to advance the objects of the
temperance party would be offered.
while at the same time the patriotic
men composing that party would con-
tribute most. essentially to the uplift-
ing of our country from menacing
evils.
“Shorrld no nominauon be made by
either of the grant portion that would
command the cordial support of the
temperance people. the opportunity to
make a nomination of its own would
still remain.
