How Panics Are Produced.
The Christian Register gives an illus-
tration of the way a a really _ well-off
community works itself into a, panic:‘
“The infatuation, near akin to luna-
cy,whichin the last few weeks has near-
ly driven the United States into general
bankruptcy, will long be remembered.
Will the lesson be heeded ? An imagin-
ary case may show what has happened
in innumerable real cases. A owed B
$1,000, B owed C'$1,000, C owed D $1,
000 and so onvdown‘ the line to J. Thege-
ten men were indebted to the amount
of $10,000, and all had real property
enough to pay their debts many times
over ; but each wanted his pay in cash.
Now each of them had,in gold or silver
or paper money, just $100. A said to
the nine : ‘If you will lend me each
$100 I will give you ample security and
good interest. Then I will pay B.’ But
each man said: ‘ No, I want all the
' money Ihave.’ ‘If A had been able to
borrow the $900 and pay' B, B would
have paid 0, and so on down the line ;
and the $1,000 would have paid debts
of $10, 000, and each would have received
his own with usury As it was, each one
was obliged to ask for an “ extension,”
credit was lost, and it was only. lucky
that each creditor did not send his cred-
itor’s note to protest, and so drive ten
- into needless and wasteful bankruptcy.
When each determines to get his Own
without reference to the interest of the
others, he often overreaches himself.
The value of confidence as a factor in
business has been shown a wonderful
way. The madness and confusion of
the last few weeks have borne some
good fruits after all.”

CAPITOL NOTES. '
Tributes were paid to the memory of
the late Leland’Stanford, in the Senate, _
Saturday afternoon, at the conclusion ‘
of Senator Allison’s able speech on the
silver question. ‘
The republicans prevented the demo-
crats from taking up the repeal of the
Federal ElectiOn Law bill in the House
on Saturday.
Before the Ways and Means Com-‘
mittee, Col. W._ W. Skiddy and John
H. Leeds, of Stamford, urged a reduc-
tion of the duty on licorice paste, in
the interest of the Cove Mill of that
city.
Committeeman Tom Reed had no end
of fun Saturday with democratic manu—
facturers who demanded protection.
He asked them to explain how their re-
quests were consistent with the theories
of their party. One of these gentle-
men Mr. Reed stretched upon the rack
by so cleverly cross-examining him as
to make his answers reduce to the con-
clusion that there was no difference be-
tween the parties, only that the demo-
crats wanted “incidental protection put
there a purpose,” as Mr. Reed phrased
it. ~ -
There was an unusual run of manufac-
turers asking that. the McKinley tarifi'
be retained.
Patent Commissioner Seymour left
here on Thursday to join his family in
Vermont. -
U. 3. Treasurer Morgan has the en-
couraging news from Bridgeport that
his invalid Wife is rapidly improving. B.
Music Hall.
What promises to be one of the most
successful engagements of the season
will be played at Music Hall on Friday
and Saturday by the Fred. Solomon
Comic Opera Company. Mr. Soloman
has long been favorably known as the
leading comedian of the New York
Casino, and the several operas in which
he is now appearing were all successes
in that house, and much of their suc-
cess was due to the individual efforts
and capabilities of Mr. Solomon. His
company has been organized for the
express purpose of giving these operas
in the same manner that marked their
original productions and to lend further
interest to the performances, all the
original costumes, scenes and effects
are carried by the company. ‘The lead-
ing soubrotte roles are played by
Madge Leasing, who has created quite
a furore in New York and is probably
to-daythe best soubrette to be found
in the comic opera sphere. . One very
pretty feature in connection with the
coming performance will be the chorus
and the admirable work 'it is said to
give. The voices were carefully select-
ed and the female portion of it are said
to be exceedingly pretty. The reper-q
toire of the company includes “Nadjy”
“Poor Jonathan” and “The Brigands.”
“Poor Jonathan” will be erformed on
the opening night and wi 1 be followed
by “The Brigands?’ at the matinee and
on Saturday and “Nadjy” Saturday
evening.

Deaths From Contagious Diseases.
The last General Assembly enacted a
law, requiring special preparation of
bodies for burial, which had died from
Cholera, Yellow Fever, Small Pox, Ty-
phoid Fever, T phus Fever, Scarlet
Fever, Measles, iphtheria and Mem-
branous Group. And in such cases cer-
tain duties are imposed upon the Reg-
istrar.
Physicians rendering certificates of
death in cases where such diseases were
the cause of death, should remember
that the Registrars are the T0wn Clerks,
and not conversant with medical nom-.
enclature, and therefore , in making
such certificates should allvays write
the names used in the law instead of
synonyms or descriptive phrases. Thus,
Typhoid Fever—not Enteric Fever;
Small Pox—not Variola ; Diphtheria—
not Exudative inflamation of the Pha-
rynx.

ceding the present. The death-rate
was 23.1 for the large towns; for the
small towns 18.9, and 21.6 for the whole
state. The deaths from Zymotic dis-
eases were 564, being 39.3 per cent. of
the total mortality. , . . , . -

Mr. Whitney to the Rescue.
Sunday afternoon, Joseph Whitney,
in company with a friend wentout for
a sail in his yacht. ' When ofi‘ Dorlon
Point his attention was attracted to a
sloop which seemed to be acting in an
erratic manner, as if the captain had
lost his bearings or his head. It was
blownng quite hard at the time and the
sloop threatened running upon a reef
and it finally did get aground. Mr.
Whitney guided his yacht directly up
to the sloop and was invited aboard and
asked by the party, which proved to be
composed Of eight or ten ladies and
gentlemen, who said they hailed from
Greenwich,if he could pilot the craft to
South Norwalk. The tide was rising
and ina short time the craft floated,
and Mr. Whitney taking the tiller soon
had the boat up alongside a wharf at
South Norwalk. All ”but- the captain
took a train for their homes in Green-
wich,but not before thanking Mr. Whit-
ney for having saved them from drown-
ing.

NEW YORK, Sep. 18.——The Times says
the petition of the parihsioners of the Epia
phany Church to Mgr. Satolli, the Papal
delegate, for the return Of their old pas~
tor, the Rev. Dr. Burtsell, has come to
nothing. Dr. Burtscll will remain in Ron-
dout for the present.
The delegate has decided that he has no
jurisdiction in the matter. He received
the petitioners Very kindly last winter and
promised'to do whatever lay in his power
to induce Archbishop Corrigau to recon-
sider the Burtsell case. He kept his prom-
ise by writing a politic letter to the Arch—
bishop, expressing the wish that he would
rec on the case. .
he Archbishop replied that it was a
question which the Propaganda had al-
ready settled and he had no desire to in-
terfere. The matter ended there. All
that has since been published about it was
mere guesswork.
"Mgr. Satolli on his recent visit to New
York said that he had taken no steps in
the affair and Would take none.
sell will be compelled, therefore, to carry
his cause to Rome. So far he has taken no
measures for his restoration, although he
would like such a vindication very much.

Better Continue as’ Amateurs.
Steeb, Ross and Roberts, three Nor-
walk crack sprinters, are making an
effort to get up a match with some
of the Stamford runners, says the Ad-
vocate, for distances of 100 yards, 200
yards and one mile. It is not likely,
however, that the Stamford athletes
will pay any attention to them, as Ross
and Steeb are considered out of the
amateur line and the men in this city
do not want to injure their amateur
standing by accepting any of the chal-
lenges that have been sent them.
Absorbed by the Metropolitan.
The People’s Industrial Life Insur-

absorbed, by the Metropolitan Life In-
surance company of New York. The
former company was the one against
which a bill was introduced in. the last
legislature to close up its afi'airsmn the
ground of irregularities, but which
failed to pass. Since then it is under-
stood that owing to the stringency of
the money market the company became
somewhat embarrassed; and in its ex-
tremity the Metropolitan Life Insur-
ance company stepped in and bought it
out, assuming all its risks and liabili-
ties, merging it into the Metropolitan
company. 3

Bishop M’Mahon’séSuccessor.
It is authoritively statibd that the re-
sult of the voting of the board of con-
sulting masters and ‘thelirremoval pas-
tors of the state recently, to choose a
successor to the late Bishop McMahon,
was the selection of Rev. William A.
Harty of the cathedral Hartford. Rev.
M. Tierney of New Britain, was second
and Rev. John A. Mulcahy of Water-
bury and Rev. Edward J. Broderick of
Hartford third. The last two received
the same number of votes. In this order
the names were forwarded to the Pope.
The bishops of the archdioceses have
not yet selected a set of names to be
forwarded by them. The choice of
Father Harty was something of a sur-
prise. Father Tierney is a native of
N orwalk. -
Reckless Driving.
Sunday afternoon, Mrs. A. D. Haz.
zard, in company with a lady friend,
drove to Charles J. Ferrisa’ house on
Main street, and hitching their horse
went into the house to pay Mrs. Ferries
a visit. AbOut 8.30 o'clock, a pair of
horses hitched to a two-seated wagon,
in which were three or four young men,
crashed into the 'Hazzard carriage,
wrecking the dash andbadly springing
one of the axles. It wins not learned
what damage was done to the other
turnout, as the party drove on at a
reckless speed. It is understood that
the same parties collided with a tele-
graph pole‘farther up the street, but
fortunately were not thrown out. The
young men, it is said, were apparently
under the influence of _ intoxicants.
Their names are known, and a. bill for
damages to the Hazzard carriage will
have to be settled by them.

The Medical Practice Act.
It is proposed to publish immediately
after Oct. 1st the names of all the prac-
titioners of medicine, surgery and mid-
wifery, in Connecticut who have com-
plied with the law relating to registra-
tion up to date. ,
This list will be sent to all Registrars
of Births and Deathsnn order that they
may know what physncians in the state
have fulfilled the" requirements of law,
and so are legally qualified to practice,
and to render certificates of Births and
Deaths. '
Up to this date between 700 and 800
have registered including midwives.
There are probably nearly as many
more who should be registered.
In consequence of manyerroneous and
unauthorized publications in the news-
papers from time to time, much misun-
derstanding and _perplex1ty among the
profession has arisen in regard to ob-
taining the blanks. upon which practi-
tioners are required to make out their
statements for registration. The law
says the blanks for said statements
shall be furnished by the State Board
of Health. Thailaw gives nd directions
as to the way in which they shall be
furnished, and as no full list exists of

Patrick J..Gonners Dies in aStaII
at Solman’s Livery Stable.
Tvyo of His Ribs Broken.
Sunday afternon at 2:30 o’clock Pat-
rick J. Conners, a hatter, who has been
employed at odd times in Solman’s liv-
ery stable in South Norwalk, went into
a stall to harness a horse. The next
that was heard from him was when Ed.
O’Connor, hearing a slight noise, looked
into the stall and saw Conners lying on
the straw holding onto _ his side as
though in great pain. Being in a great
hurry O’Connor did not pay much at-
tention to him, thinking perhaps that
he had been imbibing too much, and
leaving him went about his work. Con-
ners crawled out of the stall upon
some straw, where he was found a few
minutes afterwards by Harvey Shef-
field, another employee, dead. Dr.
Bohannan was called and hearing the
facts thou ht that he had died of heart
disease. hen Medical Examiner Burke
arrived a more thorough examinatigmf
was made and it was found that two 0
Conners’ ribs were broken, which had
probably ruptured his liver, causing
internal hemorrhage resulting in his
death. The body was removed to the
residence of his brother-ln-law, R. Mc-
Allister on Sprin street.
It is supposed t at Conners was taken
sick while in the stall and fell on the
floor and was stopped on by the horse.
Deceased was a brother of Mrs. John
Malone, of Norwalk. His funeral Will
take place from St. Mary’s church to-
morrow morning.
Foresters’ Convention .'.Closed.
The convention of the supreme court
of the Ancient Order of Foresters of
America, which was held in New Ha-
ven all last week, adjourned about 1
o’clock Sunday morning. The whole
convention was an unusually lengthy
and talkative one. The effort to cut
down the representation in the supreme
court from 1 delegate for every 1,000
members to 1 delegate for every 2,000
members was voted down. It was de-
cided to expend $500 for a new ritual,
if such expenditure is deemed neces-
sary by the committee. The court de-
cided to leave the matter of regalia to
a committee to be appOinted by the su-
preme chief ranger. A contract was
entered into by a former committee to
furnish regalia for $14,000, but the del-
egates now desire something. that is
more American. It is, a question
whether they are bound by this con-
tract. The next convention of the su«
preme court will be held in Cleveland,
hi0.
The attempt to move the headquar-
ters failed. The supreme secretary, E.
M. McMurtry, will be at Brooklyn, N.
Y., for the next two years and for the
two succeeding years he will be located
at Cleveland. Dr. P. .Hofi‘man _of New
J ei-sey was made medical examiner by
an unanimous vote. The new officers
elected were installed by W_. S. Elliott,

BERLIN, Sep. 18.—Before leaving Stutt-
gart On Saturday evening Emperor W'ill-
iam had a long conversation with Chan-
cellor von Caprlvi. The subject is said to
have been the projected assimilation of
Alsace-Lorraine with the rest of the Elm-
pire. The Frankfort Gazette says that the
the more abolition of exceptional laws.
His desire now is to have Alsace incorpor-
ated in the Grand Duchy of Baden, whose
people have almost the same dialect, cus-
toms and even the traditions with the Al-
satians.
Lorraine will be treated somewhat differ-
ently. It is inhabited by peOple of French
tendencies and language, and has little in
common with. any ‘ German State. It
therefore will be annexed to Prussia, a1.
though its afiairs will‘be administered by
.a special department, probably situated in
Berlin. This plan originated with Cap-
privi. It is agreeable to the Emperor, who
wishesto mark his sojourn in the provinces
by some act signifying that Germany has
taken possession of the terlrtory, despite all
hOpes of the French to the contrary.

before United States Commissioner Bell
on the charge of robbing the Philadelphia
mint of $26,670 worth of gold, Chic! .
Inspector Drummond of the scent service
Went to Washington to get instruction-
from Acting Mint Director Preston and
when he returned he had a conference
with ,one of the assistants of United States
District Attorney Ingham in referemo to
fitting his aged prisoner a prompt hear-
3.
The witnesses for the government will
be Chief Drummond, Treasury Agent
Morgan and Assistant Weighing Clerk
John 2. Jonel of the mint. The govern-
ment is not disposed to push the case
with any degree of vigor but District Attoro
ney Ingham will ask. that Cochran be
taken out of the hands of Secret Service
Inspectors WOOd and Linden, who now
have him in charge and pet him where he
can be found when Wanted.
Chief Drummond said that he was ' not
in a. position to definitely say whether or
not the government would prosecute
Cochran, but declared he would recom-
mend the abandonment of the case in the
event of complete restitution being made.
‘tHe is old and feeble and has done good
service in the mint,” Chief Drummond fur-
ther said, “and-I do not believe that he is
altogether responsible for his actions. I
would trust Cochran with millions of dol-
lars of anything valuable except gold. It
would be safe to :give him control of a
vault filled with greenbacks, for he would
not take a. cent of it. He handled gold all
his life and has developed a salon for it
which is too strong to be scribed. He
thought the government was rich enough
without a few bars more or less and he
helped himself to an extent that would
make his declining years happy ones.”
