A Disgrace. ‘

The Gszn'rrn is informed that. the
same or similar evidence as given yes-
terday against James H. O’Reilly’a
speak-easy by Peter Guigue was pre.

sented to Prosecuting Agent Honnecker

weeks ago, and that he knew all about
the matter and where he could obtain
evidence long before he was ordered
by the County Commissioners to arrest
O‘Reilly; it is also said that the Prose-
cuting Agent was advised some six
weeks ago of another place where the
illegal sale of liquor was going on, but
has taken no step in the premises.

If this information to the Gamma is
correct, and it comes from a most au-
thoritative (source, and Prosecuting
Agent Honnecker knew where he could
obtain the necessary evidence to cen-
vict O’Reilly and made no efl'Ort to
bring that evidence into court yester-
day, he 1s'a disgrace to the Office he
holds and should be summarily~bounced
by the County Commissioners.

A Sequence of Events.
'Under the above heading the Hart-
ford Courant states the advanced posi-
tion of the Roman Catholic church, as
represented by Apostolic Delegate Sa:
tolli, Bishop Watterson and prelates
The Courant

 

 

says: 9
“If such prelates as James Gibbons

’ and John Ireland had had their way at

the third plenary council of Baltimore,
the Roman Catholic saloon keepers of
this country would have had, to choose,
years ago, between their church and
their business. The opposition of it
number of the foreign-born bishops

' was too strong and stubborn at that

time to be overcome by the Gibbonses
and Irelands, and they had to be con-
tent with a compromise. In their pas-
toral letter the fathers of the council
said. ‘We call upon all pastors to in-
duce anypOf their flocks who may be
engaged in the sale of liquors to aban-
don as soon as they can the dangerOus
traffic, and to embrace a more becom-
ing way ”or making a living.’ ‘

“At the congress of Roman Catholic
laymen in Chicago last fall, this declar-
‘We favor the en-
actment of appropriate legislation to
restrict and regulate the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors, and we urge Catholics
everywhere to get out and keep out of
the saloon business.’ 1

"In Lent of this year Bishop Watter~
son of Columbus, 0., sent out certain
instructions to the parish priests of his
diocese. We recently received by tele-
graph and published portion of this
document, but the entire text of the
passage devoted to the saloon business
is worth reprinting:

I hereby withdraw my approbation
from any and every Catholic society or

branch or division thereof’in this dio-
cese that has a liquor dealer or saloon-

keeper at its head or anywhere among

its officers, and I suspend every such
society itself from the rank of privi—
leges asa Catholic society, until it ceases
to be so officered. I again publish the
condition, without which for some
years I have declined to approve of new,
branches of old organizations 'in this
That no one who is
engaged either as principal or agent in
the manufacture or sale of intoxicating
liquors can be admitted to membership.
You will make this rule known to the
organizations in your parish and have
it faithfully observed. It is sure how-
ever, to commend itself to every right

spirited and healthy association of '

Catholic gentlemen. .If there are
saloonkeepcrs inyour parish who call
themselves Catholics and yet carry 1 on
their business in a forbidden and disc-
difying way, or sell on Sundays, either
openly or under any sort of guise or
disguise, in violation of civil law, and
to the butt of order and religion and
the scandal of any part of the com-
munii.y,ly0u will refuse him absolution,
should they perchance come to receive
the sacraments, unless they promise to
cease offending in these or other ways
and to conduct their business blame--

lessiy if they can, or get out of it and "

keep out of it altogether.

consideration, has approved, ’ratified

It may turn cut that Watterson and

Some of the other, Roman catholic
bishops will undoubtedly follow the
Ohio bishop’s example; all of them are
free to do so. The delegate’s decision
settles that.”

A Legal Decision.

Th5 estate of Wilfiam Hawley of
Ridgefield was settled in the probate
court last week. Mr. flawley died
about 1867 and left to his son William
K. Hawley a trust of 85,000. In 1886
Hawley entered the Home of the
Frieifdless in Philadelphia and after.
wards assigned his property to this insti
tution. The hearing before the Ridge-
field probate court was on settlement of
trustee’s account, showing how much of
the income was due to W. K. Hawley’s
assignee, the Home of the Friendless.

 

various sums the home contested. The
Home representing W. K. Hawley’sin-
terests disputed certain items and the
court has ruled in favor of the Home to
the extent of $200. Howard W. Taylor
of this city was the attorney for the as-
signee and George B. St. John of Nor-
walk 'the trustee—Danbury Dispatch.

For tWo years an average of 1,100.

‘men have been at work making a cut

work has cost more than $1,500,000.
The New York Sun says:

The officials of the road say that they.
cannot prophesy with any degree of
certainty when the four-track system
will be completed, because it is impos-
ible to estimate the delay which will be

occasiono'd 1n securing the property and ,

the privileges needed in the cities of
Stamford, South Norwalk and Bridge-
port, through which the road runs. The

work in the cities will be left till the»

last, but’ as the remainder of the work
is now pretty well advanced it cannot
be delayed much longer.

The first section of the four-tracked
road to be constructed was the stretch
between New Rochelle Junction and
East Portchester. This was begun 10
years ago, and has been in operation a
long time. Other sections completed

and in operation .are those between

South Norwalk and Bridgeport and
between East Bridgeport and the
Housatonic river, The section from
Glen BrOok, just east of Stamford, to

South N orwalk will soon be finished, as _

will also that between the Housatonic
river and New Haven. In this section
the road will go straight through the
hills, which were avoided with the
curves in the original construction.
The section from Greenwich to Stam-
ford is nearing completion. One of the.
most expensive and bothersome parts
of the work has been the raising of the
tracks at Darien and other points,
where it has been necessitated by the
fact that the roadbed is so near the tide
level that intersecting highways cannot

:be depressed and run under the tracks.

Oyster Suit Withdravvn.

The suit of George A. Townsend and
C. D. Parmelee against The N. A. Lud-
dington companyhas been withdrawn
from the docket of the Superior Court
at New Haven. The action was brought
because of a dispute betweenthe parties

 

 

as to the division lines of oyster beds at,
In November, 1893, the:

Morris Cove.
parties had a misunderstanding and
this led to legal process. -

The plaintiffs owned a tract. 3f 'oyster
grounds and staked it OR. The defend-

ant disputed their layout and pulled up'

the stakes and re-locsted them to suit
their idea of ownership. The difference
between the two was something like a
300 foot extension into the Sound. The

value of the land in contest was about-

$5, 000.

The Luddington company, since the
suit was brought, have concluded that
they were in error and have conced-
ed the claim of the other party. - They
gave up their case and agreed to pay
the costs. The plaintiffs will have the
use of the whole tract of sea area they
had first laid claim to.

UNIONro". N, Pa. .-, July 24. +Dynamit
are made an attempt to blow up the tovvn
of Dunbar, just north of-hcre. A 1 o’clock
a large bomb was exploded under the
house of ,a nonunion Workman named
Vaugh, in the center of the town. The
building was blown to pieces, and the
larger part of the town was badly. shaken
by the explosion. Windows werg broken
all over the borough, and chimneys thrown
from their position. The family escaped
without injury, which is considered
mlraculo s. A short time later a dyna~_
mite bom was found under the house of
William Boden, another nonunlcnlst.
The bomb had evidently been thrown at
the house, but did not explode.

The night was one of mortal terror in
Dunbar, the town being in the hands of
the strikers. From early in the evening
there was considerable shooting done not
only in the borough, but in the surround-
lng county. No one was shot, but the
object was to attract the attention of the
people to other parts from that at which
the dynamiters were going to make their.
attack. The people of the town were con-
scious that trouble was brewing. and
many remained on the streets. Nearly
2, 000 strikers have gathered there todag
for a meeting. Many are armed wit
guns and revolvers.

Popular Elections For senators.

pion of the resolution for a constitutional,
amendment to. elect United States sens.

passed the house on Saturday, is sanguine
that the senatewill also pass the resolu-
tion and the necessary threefourtlis of
the states will give their assent, necessary
to make it effective. ’
“There will be no difficulty in getting
theassent of the states,” said Mr. Tucker,
‘fas there is no limit within which time
the states are to give their assent. When,
therefore, congress submits the constitu-
tional amendment .to the states. if 10 of
them approve it and one o! = (-ts 1111‘. 10
affirmative votes count in; . but
the one negative does not c..-1...: ..g;,;.'1st—
that is, the state which ha..- v..tcd in the
negative may try again ,the next year.
Thus only affirmative votes are reconicd
at the state department, and when, after
a series of years, the affirmative votes
reach three-fourths of all the states the
constitution is amended. At present. with
44 states, we would need the assent of 33.
The assent of 14 is assured in advance, as

in favor of the change up totwo years ago
and three more since that time. Califor-
nia, Oregon. Indiana, Illinois, New York,
Michigan, Kansas, Idaho, West Virginia,
Louisiana and Ohio are among the states
already committed.

“In the meantime, while the states are

tlcally in fOrcc, as many states are nomi-
nating their senatOrs at state conventions.
Illinois started the movement, Michigan
has recently followed, and the practice
will soon become universal. Senators
Palmer and Mitchell are particularly in-
terested in the measure in the senate, and
[ have no doubt of its passage at this ses-
Ilon or in the session opening in Decem-
her.”
