In spite of the consequent drain on the funds of the insurance companies, however, few have abandoned the busi- ness. But we are rapidly approaching a condition where, unless better means of extinguishing fire can be introduced and maintained in many of our cities, . rates will have to be increased. A busi- ness cannot always be continued at a. loss. The turning point must come some time or the business must of ne- cessity be relinquished. It seems a worthy suggestion, there- fore, to property holders generally, that instead of making it necessary to increase the rates for the benefit of the companies, additional apparatus for the protection of property from fire losses be installed by our city governments and paid for by a slight increase in tax. ation. It is wiser to pay a few mills more ' per thousand in city taxes and have less to pay in insurance premiums. There is another important reform ’ that all honest insurance companies should enter upon, before increasing their already burdensome rates of pre- miums. That is to never insure one penny more than they expect to pay in event of a loss. It would prevent a large percentage of fire losses, if in- surance companies would unite in a de- termination to allow no piece of prop- erty to be insured over its actual value. ——-——«+»—-——-———- Jealousy of the American Flag. There is great complaint among the bankers and business men of New York because the British government per- sists 7in sending mail matter to this country by the slowest ships out of Queenstown, apparently for no other reason, says the Washington Post, than that they fly the English flag, whereby important correspondence is often from one to two days behind the mail that is dispatched via Southampton direct. Inasmuch as mails from the United States to England are sent by the fast- est ships without particular regard to the flag they carry, we can" see no rea- son Why the British government should not do the same thing in this direction. Not only should due regard be had for the principle ‘of reciprocity in this mat— ter, but it would be greatly to the ad- vantage ot business interests on both sides. It is quite as essential‘ to the London merchant to have the speediest possible mail delivery in New York as it is for the New York merchant to reach his London correspondent by the most di- rect and expeditious route, and it makes no difference to either whether the mails are forwarded by English or American ships. It looks now as though there was more or less jealousy of the fast American liners at Southampton at the bottom of the trouble, but upon a proper presentation of the case the English government can probably be induced to so arrange its contracts as to give the best service to the general American and British public bioth from Southampton' and Queen‘stofnfr 11,1559 is what the United States is doing aiid it is fairly entitled to the same consid- eration. It goes without saying that the fastest steamers should be employed to perform the service; ’ l- ROD llNDGUN TheNaramake Club Hold an Inter- esting Meeting. Good Sport Promised-Members in Brook and Field. —-....» Naramakc fish and gameclub met at the rooms of C. B. Coolidge on Main street, last evening. Vicepresidcnt 0.. N. Wood called the meeting to order and Secretary Samuel Lynes read the minutes of the last meeting, which were approved. The committee ap- pointed to purchase quail reported that they had secured seven dozen and only two had died. They reported the birds as being in good condition and appear- ance. Four new members were admit- ted to membership. A motion to re consider the vote whereby the .by-laws were amended so as to prohibit any member from fishing or hunting for profit was laid upon the table. and a resolution adopted requiring all pro- posed amendments to the bylaws to 119 over for one meeting before action. The game committee who have the put— ting out of the purchased quail were authorized to select an assistant from the club members. They were also re- quested to report to theelub' at the next meeting. the locality in which the birds were liberated. As the club is liable to receive notice at any time of the shipment of trout, for which they have applied, the vice-president was authorized to procure the necessary cans for their reception and have them ready when the fish arrive._ A large number of trout were last spring placed in the different brooks hereabouts and a list of those brooks which had been stocked was read for the benefit of the members, who will try their rodsion April 1, when the law on trout fishing is off. It was proposed to _make trap shooting a part of the organization and it is very likely that before long grounds will be secured and the sport entered into. There are a number of expert wing shots among the members and considerable interest was manifested 1n the proposed project. Mr. P. G. San- ford, of Saugatuck, presented the club with a number of copies of the trap shooting rules of the American Shoot- ing Association, which w111 prove of great benefit to shooting is made part of the spmt. The club has become a pronounced success, and has a membership of about 150 from this city, South N orwalk, East Norwalk,Westport,Wilton and Darien. It is the purpose of the club to stock the streams in the towns in which the members reside. Thousands of trout have already bicn placed, and thous- ands more of he speckled beauties will be put out this year. This .is the first time that quail have been pur chased for stocking the fields, but the club expects to'purchasef-‘more each year until the now almost extinct “Bob White ” is again plentiful, so that the lovers of the gun may once more enjoy a day’s hunt without having to go into an adjoining state to procure game. The state laws on fish1ng_and hunt- ing have been amended until they are very strict, and each member-writ see to it that all violators are reported, and a committee of the club will make it coated to the full extent of the law. As the trout law is off on April first, the members of the club hope to have good fishing, as the large number of trout already placed in the several streams hereabouts will have grown to a sufficient size to make good sport for the angler. The next meeting of the club will be held on Wednesday, April 4, and a number of new. members. will be admitted. Anyone Wishing to 10m, and take advantage of the-benefits of the club, can do so by handing in their names to the secretary, Samuel Lynes, before the next meeting in April. How He Handles Them. The officials of Fairfield county have a very good record in keeping all the prisoners committed to their charge. The most' desperate of criminals have been confined in the countyqail and have been taken to states prison with- out a single one escaping. The other night Jailer Scofield was asked about the actions of desperate criminals. He said that in many places escapes are made, but in Bridgeport the men are closely watched and given no op. portunity to escape. Every movement of a noted criminal is watched. He‘ is placed in a position where he cannot escape,‘and the officials have no trou- ble. . Mr. Scofield said : “When I have a hard case to take to court I generally shackle him to a tramp. If he gets away he must take the tramp With him. Onecau’t run away without the other. Desperate men are heavily ironed when they are taken to states prison, and are closely watched. Sometimes I have ton on a chain. My revolver is always in working order. If one runs ten must. If I drop one the other nine must drag him.” “The only way that prisoners can es. cape is to break or unlock the hand- cuffs. We look out for that and we have very little trouble. We have appli- ances at the jail that make it impos- sible for a prisoner to escape. We could shackle a desperate prisoner’s hands behind him. Then we could put leg irons on him. If necessary we could put a ball and chain on him. We are never obliged to resort to those extreme measures, however. “We always have criminals that must be watched. They use all sorts of schemefs to fool us. Some times a man will close his fist when I am putting on the handcuffs. They do this to get them on loose in hopes of slipping the irons. I always put them so tight on these fellows that they squeal. I make them open their fist. . ‘- USE DANA'S SARSAPARILLA, IT’S “THE KIND THAT CURES.” W Birthday Party.

Saloon—Keepers Make Damaging Statements. ‘ Prosecuting Liquor Agent Honuec- ker of South Norwalk has been con- fronted by serious charges, and it is re- ported that the Law and Order league will make an effort to have him dis- barred for unprofessional conduct, says the Bridgeport Standard. The county commissioners are also up in arms against the liquor agent, and have decided to request his resignation With- out delay. _- Attorney Honnecker was appomted liquor agent by the county commission- ers shortly after the Democrats se- cured control of the board. Attorney Toomey of Bridgeport, is supposed to have charge of the entire county, but Howard Taylor was placed in charge of Danbury and Attorney Hon- neckcr was instructed to take charge of Norwalk and South Norwalk. Recently Agent Honnecker thought that Stamford saloon-keepers were en- joying tau much of a good thing, and he concluded there would be some money for him in a raid upon the liquor dealers of that town. Mr. Hon- neckcr said nothing to the county com- missioners of his purpose, but, taking a few “spotters,” he visited Stamford and soon had evidence against 12 or 15 saloon-keepers there. But if reports subsequently made to the county commissioners are true, Mr. Honnecker was more considerate of his own profits than he wasof having the license laws observed. Of the number detected warrants were issued for the arrest of onl a half dozen. These were prosecute in the regular way. There was quite a stir in Stam- ford at the time. but after the excite- ment had passed the county commis- sioners were informed that a number of saloon-keepers against whom evi- dence had been obtained had the com- plaints suppressed by quietly paying the prosecuting agent to let the matter drop. The commissioners sent for one of the saloon keepers who was making this so- rious charge against the liquor agent, and asked him concerning it. The liq- uor dealer insisted that it was true. He said that he received a notice from the liquor agent, requesting him to call at his office. He a out there, and Mr.Hon- necker told him he had evidence that the saloon keeper had been selling after hours and on Sunday, and that unless the case was settled at once a warrant would be issued for his arrest. The sa- loon keeper said Mr. Honnecker told him he would‘let the matter drop it the saloon keeper paid him $63. Realizing that the affair would cost him much more than that amount if he were ar- rested, the saloon keeper said he paid the sum asked without any further ar- gument, and that was the last he heard of the Case. '. . The county treasury had only receiv- ed the fines imposed upon those who had been arrested,and the commission- ers therefore decided to make an inves- tigatiOn. If Mr. Honnecker intended to make money at'this rapid rate the county commissioners wanted to know it. They accordingly sent for the South Norwalk liquor agent and told him of the charges which had been made against 1m. ' Mr. Honnecker appeared to be very indignant and offered to resign at once. But the commissioners told him that was not the proper course to take if he were innocent. Serious charges had been preferred against him, and the commissioners had simply given" him a chance to explainthe matter if he could, before they proceeded with their inves- tigation. Mr. Honnecker reiterated that the charges were unfounded, but that he would resign sooner than have any trouble. The commissioners made a thorough investigation in Stamford,and after lis- tening to the testimony submitted by various saloon keepers of that town,de- cided to ask Mr. Honnecker to hand them his resignation. This is all they intend to do in rela- tion to the matter. There were eight saloon keepers in Stamford who testi- fied that they each had paid the liquor agent $63 to suppress the complaihts he said he had against them. It is now reported that the officers of the state council of the Law and Order league in New Haven, have been in- formed of the trouble in which Mr.Hon- necker is involved, and that they will bring the matter before the Fairfield county bar, with a request that the liq- uor agent be prevented hereafter from practicing law in this county. Attorney Honnecker is reported as being sick at his home on Wall street to-day with a doctor in attendance and a statement from him has not been ob- tained regarding these very serious charges. It is hoped that they are un- true and that Mr. Honnecker will be able at the right time to clear himself, but from the manner in which several caseshere in town have been quietly settled we fear that there is trouble ahead for Mr. Honnecker.
