That Borough Tax.
Owing to the postponement of the
meeting of the Court of Burgesses
’from Monday to this evening, no action
was taken on the much-mooted queer
tion of dividing the Borough Tax. It
is expected that the matter will be con-
sidered at to-night’s session. There
are, already, a large number who want
to call another Borough meeting, and
vote to rescind all action of the meet-
ing laying this tax, and provide for a
new assessment which shall provide for‘
the present payment of only one-third
of the cost of the Main street improve-
ments, as was originally urged by Bur-
gess Glover, when the vote was carried
to pay the whole $15,000 out of this
year’s tax levy, it was not anticipated
that the “change ” so many voted for,
would have gripped us all so savagely
in the pocket-book.
Scandalous if True.
It is charged by sundry reputable
and responsible metropolitan newspa-
pers. that on last Thursday, when a
black Friday panic came so near
being inaugurated in New York, and
when, it is alleged, a merchant was
unable to borrow $7,000 in currency on
$15,000 worth of U. S. bonds, that a
large number of the leading National
banks of that city loaned all their avail-
able discount funds to Wall street
speculators on condition that the mo-
ney should not be drawn out. .
What the speculators wanted, of
course, was to tie up money and make
it impossible to get it on the best se-
curity. The banks were safe in lend-
ing down to the full extent of their
means when the money was not to be
drawn; but it was an exhibition Of
greed at the cost of a plain duty to the
business public, and if the charge be
true, merits a forfeiture of the charter
of any such bank. "
Money commanded as high as 70 per
cent. at one time Thursday, simply be-
cause no moneycould be had even with
Government bonds as collateral. Gene-
ral and fearful panic was averted only
’ by some of the more considerate banks
taking a large amount of clearing house
certificates and offering prompt aid to
the street. .
The national banks should be mind-
ful of the fact that they are .now on
trial more than ever before, and they
should exhaust their resources to sus-
tain private credit where it clearly
merits trust Many obviously solvent
‘ men can’t pay their debts'to-dav._says
the Philadelphia Times, nor could the
national banks, if suddenly called updn
to meet their obligations; and the
banks should extend to sorely strained
business credit the same generous trust
_ that alone saves the banks from dis-
aster. .

The Glorious Fourth.
The Fourth of July was celebrated
here and hereabouts in a truly patriotic,
yet as truly go-as-you - please style.
Never before were so many' of Nor-
walk’s absent sons and daughters known
' to return here on the Nation’s great
holiday. Many got teams and drove
to the green, honest, quiet country,
more \hied them to the salt sea-shore,
or went sailing on the shimmering wa-
ters of the bay and sound, while the
great majority remained at home to
enjoy such rest as the small boy would
permit, to watch and ward their homes
and property from possible conflagra-
tion-through the exhuberant patriotism
of Young America in his reckless ex-
plosion of powder. About the Borough
the youngsters opened the ball early on
Monday evening, and whoopedJer-up
till broad daylight Tuesday. About all
the bells in town were made to do dan-
gerous duty. Bon-fires, giant crackers,
pistols and small cannon all woke the
echoes, and let pandemonium loose.
The whole town was gaudy with bunt-
ing, and probably never before were so
, many bright flags set afloat from roof-
tops and door- yards. “Old Glory”
floated and flaunted in the brisk breezes
so universally all over town, that Nor-
walk rivalled,~for the day, a Delaware
peach orchard in the height of its
bloom, while at night the sky, in all
directions, was ablaze with fire-works
and rockets.
Great Nature gave us a day of ideal
perfection, and despite the usual and
inevitable accompaniments of noise
and accidents, it passed into history
as one of genuine. rational enjoyment.

, Obituary.
MRS. JOHN W. BEATI‘Y.
One Of those deep and tender touches
of nature which make all humanity
kin, and melts an entire community to
tears, now engulfs an erst bright and
happy Norwalk home in the impenetra-
ble shadow of death. A few brief
months ago, and HELEN A. PBOWITT
was a happy bride; then the supreme
joys of motherhood came to bless her
young life; time sped space, and God
sent another angel babe to thrill her
soul with the angelic bliss of mother-
love. 'But alas, alas, the frail harp-
strings of the young mother’s life snap-
ped asunder in very excess of maternal
ecstacy and in this morning’:;_ early
dawn, the weary spirittcok its flight to
realms celestial,leaving husband, babes,
parents, relatives and friends in the un-
utterable grief and-desolation of heart-
breaking bereavement. May He who
“tempers the wind to the sham lamb”
comfort and sustain her stricken dear
ones and hapless babes.

had just hired the opera house, and
were to produce “King Lear” for the
first time this evening. The loss on the
building, scenery and costumes will

black stripe, and the makers’ name's,
“Hall & Godfrey, Bridgeport,” was
on the rear of the wagon.
The Tramway.
The first Tramway car passed by
this ofiice, about 11 o’clock Tuesday
morning. It was an open car and there
was nearly if not quite 100 passengers
on board. The car started from a point
on the Washington street bridge and
glided along as only an electric car can.
Frequent stops were made for the ac-
commodation of passengers. The speed
of the car was regulated as easily as if
it had been a baby carriage. It ran as
far as the club building. Frequent
trips were made during the afternoon
and in every instance the car had a full
complement of passengers. The car
made the run up the rather steep grade
of Mill Hill with comparative ease, and
was on one trip stopped when about
half way up and started off again as if
on a level. Without a doubt the cars
will prove very popular with the travel-
ing public. Mr. Sweet, a former em-
ployee of the Horse Railroad company,
acted as conductor. One car commen-
ced making regular hourly trips be-
tween the Washington street bridge
and Norwalk at 12 o’clock to-day. The

off, causing the accident, could not be
found for some time—Stamford Ad-

Finish Fight Near Stamford.
Billy Forsythe, the well known fight-
er of Danbury, and Sammy Kelley, the
clever lightweight of New York, met
in a finish fight Tuesday morning. It
took twenty-eight rounds to decide and
then it was won by Kelley on a foul.
The fight took place over in New York
a few miles from Stamford. The fight
commenced at 1:30 a. m., the men en-
tering the ring at 110 pounds. For two
hours the battle was fought hotly.
After fifteen rounds Forsythe picked
up, and had not a foul occurred the
Danbury man would have whipped his
opponent. In the twenty-eighth round
the two men clinched and Forsythe
threw Kelley on his back. Referee P.
J. Donohue declared a foul on For-
sythe and Kelley the winner.

New, Freight Rule.
The railroad companies operating in
Connecticut have combined in an at-
tempt to prevent the unnecessary de-
tention of cars in loading and unload-
ing freight. This abuse has grown to
such an extent that serious loss and

caused to the railroad companies and
to shippers, who are often unable to
procure cars. The Consolidated, New
York & New England, Central Ver-
mont, Reading and Shepaug roads
haze united in issuing the following

after July 15, 1893, at 12:01 a. m.,
there will be a minimum charge for
the detention of cars of $1 per car per
day, or any fraction thereof, if not
loaded or unloaded within 96 hours
after placing. All car-load or commod-

Mrs. Wilson did not accompany her
husband, being afraid to undertake the

Brown, in New Canaan. Mr. and Mrs.
Brown desire the GAZETTE to correct
the published statement that they were
opposed to young Wilson marrying
their daughter, and that he was order-
ed out of the house upon returning and
announcing the wedding. They .had
given their consent to the marriage
taking place and the engagement had
been published, but they asked that
the wedding be deferred until Miss
Brown was older, she being in her
seventeenth year. This the couple de-
cided they could not do, and were

felt grieved, but after explanations had
been made all was forgiven~ and Mr.

rived at the park the presentation of
the statue was made by ex-Mayor Mar-

A Firecracker Thrown Into Her Lap
, As each 4th of July passes another
chapter is added to the long list of fatal
accidents from the careless use of fire-
crackers and the neglect of parents to
properly clothe their children in woolen
clothing before allowing them to han- -

On Tuesday morning none of the lit-

to celebrate the day, were happier in

of Mrs. Graves’ house where Mrs.
Graves caught her and extinguished
the flames, but severely burning both
