, ~Clty Charre r.
We are daily beso‘ught to publish the
proposed charter for 'the City of Nor-
walk, by citizens who never have seen

it. We are unable to do this with all,

its legal surplusage, but ore having
prepared afull and fair synopsis Of the
instrument, so that our people can
grasp its entire scope, without wading-
through t'en columns of tiresome ver-
biage. .Tfls we hope to have in readi-
ness for publication in the GAZETTE as
early us next Wednesday. We bespeak
for it a careful perusal and candid con—
sideration. It cannot fail to prove as
much an improvement_ upon our pres-
ent limping, crazy-'quilt-patch-work of
Borough charter, as our new electric
tramway is over the old time horse-
propelled street railway.
Questions Without Answers.

“We have been asked by what au-
thority the Court of Burgesses of the
borough of Norwalk, award contracts
for layingsewer on the Connecticut
Turnpike from Stuart avenue ? This
was done at the last meeting of the.
Board. As the turnpike is a city street,
this seems to be quite irregular. Per-
haps some city official can answer'the
question. If the borough has a right
to_lay a sewer on the street named,
they have a right to do the same thing
on any city street. Perhaps they “have

a permit in. this case. Does anybody
know ?”—Sentinel.

Yes, esteemed Sentinel, they have a
permit, as “anybody” could easily
have known on inquiry from the proper
sources, and this’isthe history of it :—

In the summer of 1891, the city wish-
ing to lay their water pipes through
Stuart avenue in the borough, Mayor
Reed» and‘Commissioner Reed, of the
Board of Water Commissioners, asked
permission of the borough officials to
-lay the pipe through said Stuart ave.
The matter was referred to’ Burgess
Bowe, then chairman of the highway
committee, with power. Mr. Bowe
granted permission for the laying of
such pipe provided the city officials
would grant permission to the borough,
wheneverit wanted to lay either sewer
or water pipe on such part of the Turn-
pike as was located within the city
limits. This agreement, made between
Mr. Bowe and the Commissioners, was
approved by both the city and berough
authorities, and was officially recorded
at the time, as we are assured by Mr.
Bowe. The present chairman of the
highway committee, Burgess Squire,
as a matter of proper courtesy, con-
sulted with Mayor Lockwood, and
started the public work with that ofii-
cial’s approval. Next!

Causes of it.
The causes of the present financial

stringency and business revulsion are '

more than one. It is entirely excep-
tional in our history, as it is in a great
degree, without reason. We have had
panics and seasons of severe financial

and industrial depression; but they

have always come from entirely dif-
ferent causes from those potent now.
We have had revulsions logically fol-
lowing the inflation of‘ values; we have
had revulsions coming from inadequate
money ; We have had revulsions from
failure of our chief products; but the
present revulsion comes from none of
these causes.

The people of the country are now
more generally solvent than at- any

> time in the past; our' harvests have
been bountiful; our industries, though
timidly, were generally employed until
the money disturbance came, and there
is abundance of money in the country.
Just as much as ever there was. With
such favorable conditions, hOw could
panic come ? One chief cause has
brought our present disastrous depres-
sion, and that is the loss of confidence
in the credit of the nation. National
credit is the foundation of all indi-
vidual and business credit, and when
public credit was impaired private
credit could not escape the blow.

It is purely and simply a money re-
vulsion. Commerce, industry and trade
were all in favorable conditions, but we
blindly degraded our money, ,sapped
the vitals of public credit, and finally
the storm broke upon us. It began by
foreign distrust of our insane silver
policy that sent millions of American
securities back upon us to drain our
gold. The general distrustof our sil-
ver policy forced hundreds of millions

of ,our securities home to be converted

into gold.

 

With distrust developed abroad and
draining us of gold at the rate of mil-

lions a day, distrust steadily extended

into every channel of our varied busié; P? éLadies Kid Oxfords 750, at Hoyt’s.
ness affairs, money sought safety in. ._ ,_ ' __

hoarding, values were depressed until.

panic ruled, and we are nowficonfronted
with the severest monetary depression
With the country solvent, its products
bountiful, and money abundant in
banks and individual pockets, largely
because there is general distrust at
home and abroad of our financial
policy. -.

The unprecedented individual hoard-
ing of money and looking it up by
financial institutions, has withdrawn
hundreds of millions from circulation.
The banks of, New York are to-day
nearly two hundred millions short of
their cash deposits of one year ago;
The New York bank agency of one of
our own Norwalk banks, has one-and-
a-half millions less deposits than it had
at this time last year. And this is not
as bad a showing in regard to deposits,
as with many other New York banks.
An insane fear seems to have seized
European holders of American securi-
ties that we are surely drifting from a
gold to a silver basis, and so the mar-
kets of the world were flooded with
our liabilities at any price they would
bring in gold. Our own people were
not slow to catch the contagion and
began to withdraw deposits from the

banks and lock up money, and thus

help on the very panic they dreaded.

Then an all-prevalent uncertainty-as
to the future of our tariff laws des-
troyed all confidence in our manufac-
turing systems and industries, and thus
a general business paralysis was brought
about. If the Congress about to con-
vene will repeal the silver -purchase
clause of the Sherman law and thus
restore confidence in the National
credit, pass a resolution "to make no
general reductions in present tarifl‘
laws, and then adjourn and go home,
business will at once revive, values will
be restored, and we shall emerge from
our present business paralysis into en-
during prosperity.

Too Bad l

‘It was reported to Chief of Police
Dann'Friday afternoon, that there was
a genteel .and somewhat elderly woman
on Riverside avenue,acting in a strange

 

manner. ,Ofiicer June was detailed to,

investigate. He found the woman sit.
ting on the edge of the pond singing
“Nearer My_God to Thee.’,’ The ofii-
cer got a “little nearer” himself and
took the woman under his protection.
He learned that her name was Gilbert
and that she lived in East Norwalk. A
coach was secured and Mrs. Gilbert
was taken to her home, but not before
she had managed to hit Mr. June a’
scratching blow in the face, she at the
time, she says, not believing him to be
an officer. Mrs. Gilbert averred that
had she known that she was to be
placed under restraint she would have
drowned herself before the officer ar-

rived. She came to the Borough this

morning, seemingly in her right mind.

It is quite well known that the woman,

is subject to these fits of aberation,and
she ought to be either placed in an asy-
lum or the more closely cared for by

her family. .

They Died Fighting.

An express train from Springfield, on
the New Haven road, struck and in-
stantly killed two men on the track op-
posite Hollers’ ice-house, near Pelham-
After passing Pel-
hamville the engineer noticed two men
standing On the track close together.
They were apparently. fighting, as they
were seen to strike each other.

The engineer blew the whistle repeat-
edly, but neither of the men paid any
heed to it. When the engine was with-
in ‘a fewyards of the men. the engin-
eer reversed 1118. engine and did all he
could to stop the train, but to no effect.
As the locomotive struck the two men
they were clinching and were engaged
in a desperate struggle. Their bodies
were thrown ahead of the locomotive
on the track, and the entire train pas-
sed over them. Both men were man-.
gled in a horrible manner. . .-

Both smelled strongly, of whiskey,
and it is believed that while drunk they
got into a fight and were having It out

‘ ‘THE KIND THAT CURES."
The Post is Gone. .

There was quitea lively scene Frida
afternoon. in’front of.the store of ,Wi -
liams &. Allen, on Mainfstreet. Two of
the oung men who are entered in the
hen 'cap race atNewark to-day, rode
up in front of the storeland dismount-
ing, stood on the sidewalk near their
wheels. There is a grocery store ad-
joining thefirstmentmned store kept
by the Osterbanks Bros.” One of the
bicycles and its owner stood in front of
this store. A horse belonging to the
firm standing near stepped up and
placed its nose over the rider’s shoul-
der, whereat the rider gave the horse,
as it is alleged. a slight tap on the head.
This was reperted to Mr. Osterbanks
who came out of. the store in a rage
and threatened dire vengeance on the
bicycler, who apparently did not scare
worth a cent. A “run in" was immi-
nent but friends of the. bicycler pre-
vailed on him to not punish Osterbanks
for his insulting remarks, and he was
led away. However, there was quite‘a
war of words afterwards. In front of
the Williams 85 Allen store there was a
hitching post which, at the request of
Mr. Osterbanks, had not been-cut down
when the former firm movedsjnto the
store. This post was utilized by the
Osterbanks, firm in hitchin their teams.
The post was not there t amorning.
It was last evening sawed ofi‘ close to
the sidewalk. , ..

The Business Outlook.

It is generally admitted, says the
Weekly Record, that this season has
been an exceedingly dull one for Nor-
walk. In fact some say thatit has been
the dullest season in years. This fact
is generally ascribed to the complete
shut-down of the hat factories and the

eneral depressmn in the country at
arge. _

But every cloud has a silver lining
and there is satisfaction in the thought
that it mi ht be a good deal worse.
Outside of atting, the other factories
have been pretty busy. There is some
building, but not as. much as in pre-
vious years. There is also a general
complaint of scarcity of money. '

Somepf the leading banks and busi-
ness men were interviewed and the con-
census of opinion, while not very glow-
ing, - does not indicate that the Nor-
walks are any worse off than the other
towns of the State. .

At the N orwalk Saving Society, Mr.

. Miller took a favorable view of the

outlook. Their deposits had increased
about $60,000 during the last six months,
a sum about equal to the average gain
for that length of time. They were
not making any loans this month until
after the semi-annual dividend had
been paid and they could see what the
withdrawals would be. The bank has
plenty of money.

Treasurer Bailey of the Fairfield.

County Savings Bank said that the bank
was not refusing any reasonable loans,
although probably owmg to the dull-
ness in building, there has been little
demand for money. Their depos1ts have
increased about as much as-usual. .

At the National Bank of Norwalk,
Cashier Price thought the outlook was
a little brighter. Their deposits have
been climbing up but they would un-
doubtedly be heavily drawn on later
on. Mr. Price was hopeful but not en-
thusiastic.

Cashier Green of the Fairfield County
National Bank said that they had not
felt the money stringency yet and had
been able to take care of their custo-
mers thus far without borrowing a dol-
lar. Money would probably be tighter
o. litl‘de later, and they were preparing

or 1 . ..

Mr Curtis, cashier of the Central Na-
tional Bank, did not anticipate any im-
mediate improvement. They were keep-
ing their reserve up hi her than usual
to meet emergencies. he needs of the
customers were being met, but they
could not be so free With their loans as
usual. -

Mr. Layton of the City National
Bank and the South Norwalk Savings
Bank spoke of the depression in the
batting industry as affecting South
Norwalk especially, and thought the
outlook was improving. The other fac-
tories, he said, were busy. The situa-
tion was a waiting one.

- Hatch, Bailey 8: Co., the well-known

South N orwalk wood-working firm, said
thatZthey had been as busy as they were

last year and that business had been .

about the same proportions. They did
not consider the outlook for the com-

in months as good. Collections were
on y fair. y
C. B. Coolidge, one of the best known

up-town business men, said that it had
been an unusually dull year thus far.
One thing had hurt Norwalk real es-
tate. So many public improvements
had been made it gave the impression
that taxes were to be heavily increased.
and so buyers of real estate were hard
to find. 'Mr."Coolidge Spoke of the
large number of N ew‘ York people who
were moving into this'section and cited
the case of Wilton, A year or so ago
there were 50 unoccupied places in that
town and now notanore than two or
three could be fourd. Hethought the
worst was over and that business would
now begin to mend.

~O. E. Wilson the real estate man,
looks for a good business this fall. He
has some good sales in prospect and
thinks local business matters are on
the mend.

One thing should have a beneficial

‘efi‘ect on business up town and that is

the opening of the electric road through
East avenue. This will bring consider-
able trade to N orwalk‘stores and afi'ords
another important means of access to
the borough. Real estate alom; the
line ought also "to feel the effects of
rapid transit when all the branches er.
in working order.

, A Sad Case. _ .. . .
Mr. George B. St. John, the hand-
some tax collector, informed-Chief of
Pohce Dann, _last night, that there was
a woman in his, (St. John’s) barn, and
that all efforts to oust her had been
without avail, coaxing and threats go-
ing for naught. The chief in company
With an Ofiiceryisited the barn and
found the woman to be Mrs. Florence

Ganung who for the past three years .

has been living at the Town Farm. The
chief secured a coach and she was/tak-
en back to the Farm. Mrs. Ganung has
these fits of insanity, and she is usually
closely watched when they occur, but

yesterday she managed to elude her '

watchers with the above result. Mrs.
Ganung 'claimed that they feed her
on chloride of lime and turnips at the
Farm and she did not care to live any
longer. It. is stated that she be-
came very violent on her return to the
house, and she was locked up in a pad-
ed room in order that she might not do
herself bodily harm. Mrs. Ganung is
about 65 years of age.
