Hartford, Conn., Jan. 20. —The House
Special Committee, appointed to. ex-
amine the retiu'ns of the elections for
State officers, met yesterday morning
Only the republican
members of the committee attended.
Further evidence, intended to show the
untrustworthiness of the returns, was
submitted. After a session Of less than
an hour the committee suspended its
session without adjournment, subject
to the call of the chairman.
Governor Bulkeley issued a procla-
mation yesterday afternoon warning
the Democratic State candidates from
attempting to take Offices for which
they have not been duly qualified, and
commanding all citizens to refuse to
recognize their authority. He also
declares that he will defend the present
officers in the discharge of their duty
by all the legal means in his power un-
til their successors are duly qualified.
Following is the full text of Governor
Bulkeley’s proclamation:
State of Connecticut:
By: His Excellency, Morgan G.
Bulkeley, Governor.
A Proclamation.
It having come to my knowledge
that certain persons, without authority
of the law, have combined to demand,
take and hold the chief eXecutive offi-
ces of this State, and to perform the
functions thereof, claiming possession
of said offices under a canvass and
declaration to the Senate of this State,
while the canvass of votes therefor is
under consideration by the General
~Assembly for the purpose of ascertain-
ing if any persons have been legally
elected to succeed the present incum-
bents, and such claims, demands and
attempts to take and hold said offices
being unauthorized, illegal and preju-
dicial to the good order and peace of
the State, and tending to confusion in
the administration of its government;
Therefore, by authority vested in me
by the Constitution to maintain the
laws enacted in pursuance thereof, I do
hereby c'imimand all such persons to
desist from their unlawful acts, and
from interfering with any of such execu-
tive officers, and all citizens of this
State not to recognize any acts of such
pretended officers, and not to aid nor
abet them in their unlawful acts. And
I further give notice that, in absence
of any constitutional finding and
declaration by the General Assembly
of the legally chosen executive Officers
of the State, any and every such at-
tempt to enter upon or perform the
duties of said officers by any person or
persons will be resisted by all the au-
thority vested in me under the Consti-
tution and laws of this State. Given
under my hand and seal at the Capitol
in Hartford this 19th day of January,
in the year of Our Lord eighteen hun-
dred and ninety-one, and the inde-
pendence of the United States the one
hundred and fifteenth.
MORGAN Gr. BULKELEYG
By-His Excellency’s command:
B. JAY WALSH,
Secretary of State.
Both houses of the Connecticut Gen—
eral Assembly met this morning, and
the crisis developed by the Senate last
week in inaugurating the State officers
is likely to procure interesting results.
At noon each house votes for .United
States Senator. The Senate has ten
democratic majority, and the House,
as it stands, has fourteen republican
majority. The republicans unanimous-
ly renominated O. H. Platt, and expect
to elect him.
The democratic caucus met last night,
but voted to make no nomination for
Senator until to-night. This gives rise
to rumors of an attempt at a trade
against Mr. Platt, but the members re-
fuse to talk. except that they agreed to
vote as they choose.
In the House, the Contested Elections
Committee will report in favor of seat-
ing Mr. Chichehster, of Wilton, the re-
publican, who had the most votes, but
was not declared elected because of the
word “for” on the ballots, making the
republican majority sixteen.

J. No vcl Accident I n Birmingham. Saturday
Evening.
Early Saturday evening, just as two
organs had been placed on a truck be-
longing to the Sterling company, a mass
of ice slid frOm the roof of a building '
near which the truck was standing, the
whole mass falling upon the backs of
the two horses attached to the truck.
The animals were frightened terribly,
and with one sudden plunge jumped
into a race way alongside Of which they
were standing, carrying the truck and
the two organs in with them. The
water in the race way was four feet deep
and the walk from which the horses
jumped was six feethigh. Several men
were on the scene inafew moments
and work was commenced at once to
get the horses out. This was not an
easy job, as the animals had become
tangled up in their futile attempts to
scale the six foot wall and over an hour
passed before the horses, truck and
organs were on terra firma again. The
organs were valued at $135 each and
were a complete loss: The horses were
not injured.

New Orleans, J an: 10.—The District
court to-day decided against the Louis-
iana State Lottery company and in
favor of the state of Louisiana in the
mandamus suit brought by the lottery
company against the Secretary of
State. The suit was to compel the
Secretary of State to promulgate the
lottery amendment to the constitution,
passed by the last legislature in order
that the people may vote on it at the
next election. He refused to do this
on the ground that the amendment was
never properly-pa ssed by the legislature,
having been vetoed by the governor.
The suit therefore was to decide
whether the people shall have a right to
vote on extending the charter of the
lottery company twenty-five years or
not. The district Judge to-day sided
with Gov. Nichols and the Secretary
of state in their View of the matter, and
refused the mandamus.
