Mr. Loans- bury has been confined to his bed since last Friday, and had gradually declin ed. the end coming at 3 yesterday morning. Only last Thursday. Senator Lounsbury was in Stamford. and paid a visit to the Town flail. fie seemed to be in the best of health, and laugh- ed and joked with the town officials. His death is regarded as a serious loss in liarien and has in if large lneasure changed the spirit of the town from that of Christmas festivity to mourn ing. Senator Lounsbury was born March 22. i842, in Eddyviiie, Ulster 00., N. Y. and received a common-school edu cation. lie spent several years of his boyhood upon a farm. but at an early age began to learn the tinners' trade which he followed for a time. When the war broke out lib enlisted in Com- pany A. 17th Connecticut V. 1.. and re mained in the service three years and two months. Fortunately he was nel ther captured nor wounded, but he did not escape severe suffering. the ex posures and hardships of army life bringing on several serious attacks of illness. On his return from the army. he located in Darius, and established a tin shop and hardware store, which he has ever since wnducted success- fully. At the sense time. be found op- portunities for effective work in politi- cal lines, and gained an influential standing among the Republicans of the State. in 186i he attended the nation- al convention that momlnsted Lincoln and Johnson. and in 1893 and 1895 he was elected as a representative of his town to the Blots Degisiature. serving two terms with distinction. He was a member of the Humane Committee. in the contest for Senator, in the full of i898. Mr. Lounsbury defeated George Gregory in the Twelfth District by a majority greater than that given any other candidate in the state. except in the Hartford district. hie majority exceeding 1.300. Possessing strong conviction. he never faitercd in his do ratios to his party. and had been ex- tremely active in local affairs. having served as a member of the Board of Rchool Visitors and District Commit. tee, and on the Superior Court com mittee on the Oyster Grounds. in January. 1868.

Last evenisg Attorney liuributt seemed to have the council and all on the other side ivom himself rather eloss for answers to his questions. He was fully prepared with date and asked questions that had not even been t ought up by the council, the city on beer or the corporation CDllll' sol. apparently. There were many different opinions upon the matter of how the assessments should be laid. whether by linear foot or by the squareyard. Attorney fillrlbutt's figures on the matter were somewhat different from City Engineer Wood's, but this was then ht to be or some misunder- stan ing as to exactly what figures were meant City Engineer Wood on plained that he had nothing to do with the assessing of the street but that he did make figures on the street for his own and the councils benefit The meeting was brought to a close. when Council Bette moved its ad journment to January 4, at which time it is expected that the entire gutter will have been amicably set- e . The meeting was. somewhat delayed becauseof the absence of two memc bars of the council who Were in at- tendance at the meeting of the Nor- vvalk Fire Department. The meeting was at length called to order at 8:30, the absent council members having come into the room. Attorney J. Roldan liuributt ad- dressed the council and there straight away arose a discussion as to the limitations upon the council in such matters as to the reading of the city charter. Attorney liuributt read from the charter regarding the subject. it was a decided point that the only way the council could assess the prop- erty was by their best judgment. Mr. liuributt spoke of the corner property and as to the assessing of this property. lie said that he had had the property surveyed and that City Engineer Wood had made a mis- take in his survey in the number of square yards and the councilin their futures. its stated that the "paper" does not state what life assessment is laid for. He did not bare a map when the paper containing the list Of us- sessments was given him. There was some discussion between Attorney liuributt and Corporation Counsel J. J. Walsh as to whether the entire property of a person is benefit ted by the paving or not. Counsel Walsh thought it was. Attorney flurl butt thought it was not The nearer to the center of the city the property is the greater the benefit and the further away the lesser There was some talk as to whether the assessments should be laid by the sulfate yard or by the linear foot The charter says that the property aimiflng on the street shall be taxed one quarter of the amount. Attorney liuributt said he should think the duty of the council was to tell their meth. min of assessing the property. (‘ounsel Walsh said that the council had considered two ways~lhat by the linear foot and that by the square yard. Attorney liuributt stated that the running foot is not the absolute rule in the assessing of the property and that us a principle it is not recognized as the correct method. lie said the location would also affect this role He did not favor either proposition for the entire number of his clients. Some property with but ten feet from the curb to the railroad portion might be more benefited than other property with fifteen feet reckoned in a like manner. Asked what would make an equit- able division and assessment of the damages. he replied. 'Good common sense on the street." Mr. Wood and Attorney liuributt had quite a discussion about West axenue. lielden avenue and Mott ave- nue. as to whether they are inter- secting streets or not. There was some question about the naming of the streets about the library. Attorney liuributt said that the as- sessments of the valuation of the var- ious properties are not the same as Mr. Wood‘s estimate for the assess- ment for Mr. Arthur's bill, the con- tractor who paved the street. lie and Mr. Wood then went on with the discussion as to the measurements. Mr. Wood and the engineer for Attor- ney liuributt disagreed as to figures in several small particulars. Dollars and fuel seemed to be con- siderably mixed in the discussion. C. L. liarker said that his house had been damaged as well as his prop erty benefited by the steam roller which was used on the work ills recently painted house had been spoil- ed by the cinders from the engine. Attorney liuributt showed a place in the street where the city has three fourths of the street to care for and the shutting property owner but one- fourth. This is occasioned by the fact that a city park abuts on one side of the place in caution. Attorney liuributt suggested that be and Mr. Wood get together and talk up the matter. He thought this would simplify matters. its field that Mr. Wood's figures on the street are made with a mistake. according to what has been given him (Mr. liuributt) as ’ths figures. Councilman Baits moved that so ed- urnment be tekbn to Wednesday. .3» “player will sets date for s with the sonar oil. attorneys and city engineer. Adjourned. MW MODIIN Mill.

This means that there will be but little more time in which to improve new opportunities by importunities operated upon new angles. And it also means that the fact that both sides are chock full of confidence will not make them neglect to survey the gem-rail livid once again and more. The New Haven Register inquired in Hartford from those vitally interested in the titantic contest, to obtain an op tales of the situation from both sides. flare is what was said by J. Henry Roraback, McLeans campaign mana- ger: "The vote in the caucus will not be close. McLean will win by a big majority; pretty near two to one " "The other side claim the victory," was suggested. “We are used to hearing the claims of the other side. As long as they are making a contest they have to make claims." "Do you think there will be a third or dark- horse candidate?" ‘One will not be necessary as Mo been ill win on the first ballot.“ “if s presumed you have made a (Hateful canvass of’the Republican rep resentstiv'es.’ "1 es. they Were canvassed both be- fore and after election."
