HARTFORD, Sept. 16.—Wltli all the
fire of his earlier days and with that
play of voice and hand which has
made him one of the greatest cam-
‘ paign speakers in Connecticut, former
\‘Odvernor Thomas M. Waller today car-
‘ried the Democratic state convention
iwith him. beat down the tide of opin-
. on which would have made him the
tarty nominee and finally swept the
‘4 elegates to a practically unanimous
‘eindorsenlent of A. Heston Robertson
foil“ governor.
.._.,... .
HARTFORD, Sept. 16.—-—Not a sin-
gie‘.thlng was done over night, not a
‘ conference was held, to change the pe.
. _culiar‘t,conditions of affairs in which
the delegates to the Democratic state
conventi n found themselves alter the
' county‘ca cuses last night, in the mat-
ter of end ralag a candidate for the
gubernator l nomination. Democrat-
ic leaders ho have been through
many a bat le. who have seen hours
given up to acrimony and bitter de-
' bate, expressed themselves amazed
with. the quiestifnt attitude of the
delegates. The, .realized that after
twelve years of
.« party wants pea
meat seemingly
and help along t e peace plan. The
i, were demanding
_ "hr Waller should
lead themdn‘rliis at to light. They re-
turned, to their hotelh after the county
caucuses, and went. to bed. There
~ ,were no gatherings int the hotel corri-
‘gdorsgso'dtscusslos: of the outlook
‘ amid wreaths-of tobac smoke. Ev-
erything ldpsed into a. ' nose that
‘was unprecedented. This morning
the delegates arose and reakfasted,
and they still wanted Waler. Even
in the county delegations which last.
night tried or did put themselves on
record for second and third choice.
the magic word of “Waller" made
them forget that they had a second
. choice.
Former Senator William Kennedy.
,of Naugutuck. curly announced that
‘ Mr. Waller was coining to the conven-
tion. He was not to be the permanent
chairman. however, as the understand-
'ing was that he could take a seat on
the floor, and so be in a position to
’ fight the singular battle, almost single
handed. of holding the convention in
‘check, lest it nominate him against
his protests. Mr. Kennedy said to
many inquirers that there was no a
‘ single Democrat in the convention
who could prophesy what would be
done. The call had been made for
,Governor Waller, the call would be
-‘ made when Governor Waller appeared,
f: and he said he had been wondering it
fit were possible for Governor Waller
'2 to stand against it. Mr. Kennedy said
"-the entire Democratic party in the
1 state believes Mr. Lillcy can be de.
. feated for governor if the right man is
. put. up by the Democrats.
. As the time passed and there were
‘no signs of the convention coming to
. order. delegates got impatient. About
11 o'clock Delegate Thomas F. Ruth. of
"Ansonia, was taken ill and removed to
an ante-room and given medical at-
tention. He was ill last night. but the
‘ attack of stomach trouble was not
considered serious.
It was 11:30 when Temporary Chair-
man Sullivan dropped his gavel. The
‘reports of the committees on creden-
tials and permanent organization were
accepted. , Mayor Hooker, of Hartford,
was an interested spectator of the
. proceedings. Mayor Martin offered the
following .
Resolved. that the Democratic
Party'of the State of Connecticut in
state. convention assembled herein
gives expression to its profound sor-
row at the death of Honorable Alexan-
der Troup. and recognizing his long
and distinguished service to the Na-
~tion. the state. the community in
which he lived, and the Democratic
Party, who cause and principles he
fought for faithfully. fearlessly and
forcefully, this convention places on
record its admiration and appreciation
of his strong, courageous, loyal charac-
ter. sterling patriotism. spotless integ.

Prosecuting Attorney Leo Davis De-
nies a Story Printed in The Hour
There appeared in The Norwalk
Hour last evening. under the heading
"Prosecutor Davis for Judge of Pro
bate." a story to the effect. that Mr.
Davis was looking for the nomina-
tion from the Republicans of the dis»
- trict. and would run against Judge of
Probate Henry W. Gregory, who was
nominated Saturday by the Democrats,
and who has licreloforc been i-ndors-
ed by the Republicans.
Mr, Davis stated that he know noth-
ing of the matter until he wad it
this morning, and he appeared to Di
quite indignant. over the publication.
He states that he has not now or did
he ever have any expectation of op-
posing Judge Gregory. and he . was
very anxious to "know who had been
getting funny and trying to create. if
possible. a feeling between Judge Gro-
gory and himself.“
Mr. Davis further said Judge (lrc
gory having had the ofllce for sonn-
time, was thoroughly familiar with it.
and it was his last thought to in.-
“looking” for the nomination.

Moxie Krause, 9. Chapel street man.
who Is employed in the lumber yards
of the llubbell, Hall and Randall Com-
pany, in Water street. has a narrow
escape from serious injury. while at
work yesterday.
About 3:30 o‘clock he was engaged
in stacking up some long two~inch
planks, and while standing between
two piles. both caved in without
warning. ,
The victim's legs were both caught
in the visedlke bold, and they were
badly bruised, and then swelled up.
but it is believed that no bones were
broken. '
Frank Rooney, William Hamilton
and many others, hearing his screams
of pain, rushed to the spot, and lost
no time in getting the planks away
from him.
He was placed in a wagon and taken
to his Chapel street home. Dr. A. H
Baldwin was summoned to his home.
and after an examination found that
the bruises were quite severe and it
will probably be several ‘days before
he will be able to work.

Opportunity Oilered to Citizens ol
South Norwalk to See Them
The possibility that in the near his
lure a new public library and reading
room will relieve the present crowded
conditions must lead the thinking peo-
ple of South Norwalk to desire b0
study earnestly sites and plans for
the new building.
It is useless to attempt to consider
all conditions or to settle cvery differ-
ence of opinion satisfactorily. but to
aid and suggest. in the adjustment of
the many questions that must and will
arise on such occasions. ii number of
pamphlets and books have been placed
in the library and the public is re-
quested to make use of them.
One of these, “The improvement of
Towns and Cities." by Charles Mul-
ford Robinson. will be found liclpi’ui.
In the “foreword." the author says:
“A whole volume might be written on-
the subject of any one of the chapters
given. and in several cases there is a
shelf full of books on the matter of a
single chapter." This book tries to dc-
clare the best that has been done
along every line, how and when and
where it was done, and gives the
names of hundreds of societies formed
for the purposes declared. in this and
foreign countries.
A postscript says that at the cud oi
1906 two thousand organizations exist
ed in the United States alone. whose
members were giving much time and
serious thought to the. considering o5
civic conditions. in those societic.
the sites and plans of public buildings
occupied a prominent place.
This and othcr aesthetic phases
ought to claim the attention of South
Norwslk people while the plan and
site for its library is under consider
atlon. and the aid from this book may
be found iucalcnluble.

li Lillcy ls Elected. Who Will Fill.
Out His Term '?
A rumru' went about last night that
Congressman E. .l. lilll, of Norwalk.
who called upon Messrs. Lillcy.
Kencaly. (lattes, MacDonald and others
at the New Haven Young Men's Ilcp
ublicnn Club yesterday, bcl‘orc the an
nual clam bake, came purposely on tin
errand of suggesting to the uctivr
workers in the party that he would
like to have Mr, Lillry resign his of
five as congressman before the begin
nlng of the short session which comes
in immediately after the November
election and which continues up to
next March. This session terminates
the Sixtleth congress. it was said that
Mr. Hill had concluded to take this
course because he had matters of im-
portance which he intended to under
take to close at this scssion and that.
presuming Mr. Liliey would not re
turn to congress he would like to have
the support of a full delegation from
Connecticut and a short term candl-
date. possibly Major Tilson. named in
his place.
Mr. Hill in Norwalk. would say
nothing upon this matter last night.
Neither would Mr. Lilley in Water-
bury. But finally a friend of both
was found in New Ha'ven who told what
the story was worth. He said: "Mr.
Hill simply paid his compliments to
the club. In the course of his con-
versation with the leaders he sug‘
gested that in view of the fact that
Mr. Lilley's probable election to the
governorship, Mr. Lilley would have to
resign from congress. prior to Jan-
uary l. at which time he would be cal-
led upon to take the oath of office as
governor. This would leave two
months of Mr. Lilley's term in con-
gress still uncovered. This term of
service could be covered by the elec-
tion of a candidate. such as Major
Tilson. for the short term. but this
has not usually been done in cases of
this character. when they have arisen
in various parts of the country. There
may be important legislation in which
the Connecticut delegation is interest-
ed to come before the closing days of
congress. The matter was discussed
in a general way and it. may be pas-
sed upon at a meeting of the state
central committee and its advisers
later on."

Tho strike of machinists along the

The arrival of'about sixty laborers.

unskilled. has caused much trouble.
These men have stayed in town threat-

proved by the state board of educa-
tion were adopted. .
There are three optional courses.

and henceforth a certificate from the
Norwalk High School will gain ad‘-
mission to any college in the country.
The matter of having a special opsa-
ing of the fine new building in West.

and the date will be announced a. little
later.
Five members of the board were pre-
sent, last. evening. with President
Bradley 8, Keith presiding. the others
in attendance including Secretary
George E. Sartaln. Dr. G. S. Kendall.
L, S. Beers and Harry Rider.
Dr. Charles S. Mscfarlaud made a
valuable suggestion which was acted
upon. Dr. Macfarland presented the
new school with some handsome pics
tures and casts and recommended
that a commission of citiaens be ap-
pointed. to act in conjunction with the,
high school committee. in the receiv-
ing of gifts for the school. The board
appointed on this commission Dr.
