My district is one of the most perplex- ingon the tariff question that can be: found in the country. In New Britain 5 we manufacture'bfiilders’ hardware, table cutlery, edged and carpenters’ ‘ tools. At Bristol and Perryville" we turn out clocks by the thousand. The i . largest silk mill in the world is situated in my district. South Manchester is a large carpet manufacturing place,while at Rockville they turn out large quan- tities of woolen goods. Then my dis- trict is the great tobacco growing por- tion of Connecticut. , “In New Britain pig iron is a raw: iamaterial. , In Pittsburg it is a finished product. ‘ After the farmer has raised his sheep, cut the wool and scoured and sacked it, it' is to him a finished pro- duct and he demands protection'r‘there. ' on. But at *Rockville it is a raw mate- rial, and the Rockville manufacturers want to be protected from foreign manufactures" "cf” finialied woolen goods. In the tobacco“ district the leaf is a finished product when it leaves the grower's hands, so far as he is con- cerned, but the cigar maker considers it a raw material. And so, it is with silk and countless other industries. : “All New England wants is free iron and steel and free ores, and would also want free coal. But Pennsylvania wants these so-called} raw materials taxed,’because.wh'en they leave her boundary they are finished as Itoher. Out in the gfeat west andin the south a different and antagonistic condition of affairs is presented, for the people out there have to ,buy the products 'of the east. They are, therefore, nearly all free-traders, for they: want to get their stuff in" an open market as cheap as they can buy it. 9‘ The sectional interests -_of this coun- try are so diverse that it will beex- " tremely difficult to agree upon a tariff bill which will meet the approval offthe _ majority of the houses of Congress. I look for the hottest kind of .a fight, exceeding in earnestness and bitterness the McKinley bill fight. For instance, the government looses $54,000,000 ‘an- . nually ofidutyion sugar alone. by mak- ing sugar free, while we pay out ap- proximately $10,000,000 as ,a bounty. Here. is a loss to the government of $64,000,000 on sugar alone, which the people must make up in some form of taxation. ' I doubt. however, whether either party would dare to restore .the two-cent duty, because sugar is a food product that goes into every family, and an increased tax would increase the cost to the consumer, which might be resented at the polls.” _ 0 -——-—-—————1n———.—.————-.‘-—— _ Hls Integrityi'EjetanIShedi " One of the parties to the syndicate purchasing the majority of shares of the Norwalk Horse Railroad Co..has made a thorough examination of the Company’s books, and finds them in a perfectly, straight and accurate con- dition.

" CO Ma Sweet and Family._ A very successful and enjoyable en- tertainment was given in the lecture room of the Baptist church, Friday, evening, under the auspices of the Floral Circle of the King’s. The stage was - tastefully decorated with flowers, plants and trailing vines. A musical bur- /l‘i3sque was presented by the Sweet fami- ~ ly. The family consisted of Ma Sweet (Mrs. W. T.

All did splendidly in their several parts, showing that although very dressy, the girls were at the same time quite tal- ented. Light refreshments were served after the Sweet family had had their say. Over twenty dollars was netted. 00—— Tennls Tournament. The final matches of the Fairfield County Tennis tourner, at Bridgeport, . were played yesteIday.‘ At.10:30 in the morning everything was in readiness for the last of the singles and the con- testants Bryan a d McKelvey were quickly in posrtion or play. It required but three sets to decide the victor. It was Bryan by this score, 6-2. 6-2, 7-5. In the first double match McClave and Carhart were more skillful with the racket than their opponents, Hawley and Hawley. After playing three sets the former gentlemen won. Score, 641, The afternoon double match was the most interesting and exciting one of the series. - Bryan and Wheeler played for Bridgeport, and McCleavc and C. Car-l hart for Greeenwmh. .The two teams were about equally matched, and as the visltors hada large number of _ friends present to, watch them they naturally 'made 'up their minds to “do” the Bridgeporters. R01- and Malorv was chosen umpire. The first two sets were won by the Greenwich team and they were wildly cheered and applauded. That was or- fectly proper and in good form, ut when the third'setwas begun it was noticeable that the good players of the visitors brought out a storm of hand clapping and that the good players of the Bri geport team received no recog- nition. This looked queer. Then when the umpire gave What some claimed, a rank decision against Bridgeport, it looked still queerer. Finally the ,um- pire gave such an unmistakable rank decision against Bridgeport that a gen- tleman in the audience called him down publicly. The waters demanded “no outside" interference. This open re- buke to the umpire caused to be rallied around him a bevy of fair'ones who whispered among themselves and said : “Let’s applaud Greenwich and bias BridgepOrt. It Wlll rattle them." Then followed clapping and hisses ac- cording to agreement and instead of rattling Wheeler it only made him laugh and Bryan toremark, “I have played in tournamentsthis summer in Saratoga, Newport and Bar Harbor but nowhere have-1 received such treat- ment as this.” It was decided by some of the urn- pire’s friends that “if Greenwich wins let’s cheer like everything,” but to their dismay Bryan and Wheeler won the'next three sets ,.w1th_‘a_rush. Those who had favored.- Greenwich. looked crushed and the friends: of the Bridge- port players warmly congratulated them- The score was: 13-6. 3716, 623, 652, 6.2. lH-E Bluegill CASE. Judge Hall Amends His Findings in the Case. To Be Tried In the Supreme Court. At the request of the attorneys for the defendant, Judge J. M. Hall,of the Superior court has made an additional 'findin‘ in the case of Lizzie T. Barnes vs. Wi liam H.'Starr and others,recent- ly decided by the court in favor of the plaintiff. ' The suit was for the setting aside of an ante-nuptial marriage contract and involved some questions which had’not before arisen in courts, of . this state. [The knotty nature of the questions in issue is indicated by the fact that Judge Hall’s finding was not made until about: eight months after theshearing in court was closed. . . Lizzie T..Oartwright, of‘Norwalk, at the age of 45 married Samuel H. Barnes, a‘wealthy 75 year old widower, of Wil- ton. Miss Cartwright at the time of her marriage was a maiden lady. The first Mrs. Barnes .died in September, 1884.1 Barnes met Miss Cartwright about five months after his first wife’s death and thereafter _for a year and a halfwdoed her most Industriously. He proposed marriage less than a year after the death. of the .first Mrs. Barnes, giving Miss Cartwright to understand that if she would consent to quit single blessedness for his sake, he would remove from his Wilton farm to Norwalk and establish her in a_ comfortable, in fact somewhat pretentious home. Miss Cartwright vainly endeavored to resist her aged lover’s_blandishments,and in the month after his proposal consented to give ’up her hand and heart to him. About_a month after the engagement of marriage was entered into Barnes one day told his fiancee that his rela- tives, who consisted principally of some half a dozen nephews, were much put out at the thought of his marrying her, or 1n fact any other woman. They said that she was only marrying him for. his money. To prove that they were wrong, he suggested that Miss Cart- wright for a consideration of, $5,000 to be paid at her husband’s decease, sign a waiver of her dower rights in his es- tate. Said Barnes: - _ “I den’t believe that you have any idea of marrying me for my money, but I would like this, so that I can show it to them; they feel so badly about my marrying you, and I want to con- vmce them that you are no such person and you can have confidence in me that I_w111 destroy it as soon as we are mar- ried.” - Barnes also showed Miss Cartwright an anonymous letter which he thought come from Nelson B. Gorham’s folks. Gorham married a daughter of Barnes by the first Mrs. Barnes. ‘ Mrs. Barnes testified in court that under fraudulent representations made by Barnes that he was not worth more than 315,000, When. as a matter of fact he was worth nearly $100,000, and that he would destroy the contract after marriage, she signed the ante-nuptial agreement. After Barnes’ death Mrs. Barnes brought suit to have the agree- ment set aside in order that the way might be open for her to contest Mr. Barnes’ will, by which most of his property was left to his nephews. Mrs. Barnes testified that several times her husband told her that he had destroyed the contract and that it was not until a short time before his“ death that she discovered he had deceived her. ' Barnes and Miss Oartwri ht-were married in .ilsiggust, 1886, and arnes died April 23, The case was stubbornly contested, States AttOrney Fessenden and Good- wm Stoddard appearing for Mrs- Barnes, and Samuel Tweedy and Judge Brewster, both of Danbury,‘ for the defendants. The latter endeavored to prove that the plaintiff had not been the victim of fraudulent representa- tions; that she knew the amount of Mr.- Barnes’ wealth and knew also that the marriage contract had not been de- stroyed. In other words, that with her eyes wide open and fully conscious of the effect of such an agreement she signed the waiver of her dower rights. After the attorneys for the plaintiff had’ rested her case, the defendants’; counsel moved the court that all evi- dence offered by the plaintiff regard-. ing her husband’s promise to destroy the marriage contract he not consid- ered by the court, on the ground that as a matter of law it is not a fraud to make a promise not to.carry out an agreement of any kind, and that, there- fore, all evidence concerning the prom- ise to destroy the contract should be stricken out. This the court declined to do, stating that there was no author-1- ty in this state for such a procedure. To this ruling the defendants excepted. The additional finding now made by Judge Hall is to include in the engine] finding the testimony of Alexander Barlow, one of the nephews. Barlow testified that-during Mr. Barnes’ fatal illness the plaintiff had said to him, while driving him to the railroad sta- tion, discussing, at the sometime the possibility of her husband’s death: . “Well, you boys shall have a mes little sum, but Ishall have a more noth- in .” . Judge Hall has also, at the request of Attorneys Tweedy and Brewster, made some other testimony considered by these attorneys as favorable to their side of the case, part of his finding as well as a number of claims of law which were submitted in argument, but notwithstanding which the court found A judgment for the plaintiff. The .obJeet in securing tlfie additional finding is to strengthent e appeal by the defend- ants to the Supreme Court. The parties to the action are well known through- out Fairfield county, particularly in and around Bridgeport, Danbury and Norwalk, and the decision: of 'the-Su-é ,reme Court will be awaited with more ' Interest than ordinarily attaches -.1 to cases; in the civil courts. .'It-is- fa’irto’ 15.1.5 ‘quires‘; _ . say that many of. the leading nmenibe’rs .off the bar of this county whoha've'fpll- lowed‘the lease with an inter‘estywhich ' . .o. though professional, is-as great as that of- others whose interest is of a differ- ent nature, ore diyidedin their opin- ions concerning some of the important questions .to be passed upon by the hlghest legal tribunal: in the state.
