The Daily Gazette, established in 1890
The Weekly Gazette in 1800.
The manufacturer, the merchant, the me-
chanic and laborer, are all daily and de-
voted readers of the Daily Gazette. En-
t irprising, attractive and honest, its readers
believe in it and peruse it thoroughly; and
i .s Editorials and Advertisements get closer
attention than do the columns of less to-
spected papers \
A Disgrace.
The room where the city meeting was
held Tuesday afternoon, and known as
the Town House, is a disgrace to a
town like Norwalk, and we doubt if a
nastier 0r dirtier place of the kind
couldbe found in the state. Lumber is
piled up in various parts of the room
and under the seats, sections of the
walls have fallen 011‘ and the ceiling
threatens to follow suit at any time,
the seats, desk, chairs, etc., were cov-
ered with. dust and cobwebs~indeed
the entire condition of things was a
disgrace to the owners of the building.
Lots of Money.
The statements of our three city
banks appear in the GAZETTE to-day.
A perusal of their financial conditions
show very distinctly that our banks
have money enough “boarded up” if
the people have not. Indeed, it would
, show more thrifty and prosperous busi-
ness conditions if the banks had less
money on hand. ‘The banks too, would
be glad to loan all their available funds
and have the money earning dividends,
could they find satisfactory chan-
nels for its circulatiOn among the peo-
ple, but the law and necessity, which
knows no law, compel them to be so
unreasonable as to exact responsible
names and security when they loan
their Stockholders’ funds. Hard, isn’t it?
Cost of a Legal Farce.
In the debauch of justice in the
O’Reilly case, the following items of
cost, which have to come out of the
pockets of the tax payers of this town,
show what an expensive luxury such a
worse than farce, these outrages upon
justice and the people are: I
Prosecuting Agent Honnecker, $11.23
Uonstabl e John LockwoOd, 4.19
Justice A. E. Austin. 3104
Witness E. J. Thomas, .604
Witness Peter Guigue, .60
Total, $19.7
*The witnesses donated their fees to the
town
What it cost somebody to send 11!:-
Mullen _to notify O’Reilly of the ofii-
cer’s proposed raid does not appear,
nor is it definitely known which official
is guilty of this disgraceful act of per-
fidy. The one redeeming incident in
this whole wretched business was Hon-
necker’s effort (of course unavailing) to
get the Justice to allow him to amend
the indictment. Oh, for a city court
and an honest judiciary.
Yesterday’s News.
Senator David B. Hill made another
pettifoging speech in behalf of his
client, President Cleveland, which must
have proved quite as exasperating to_
him as the bitter assaults of Senator
German.
Fears are expressed of the loss of the
Wellman Arctic exploration party. As
' they are mostly nev’vspaper reporters,
the rumor may be accepted with grains
of Salt. The steamer conveying the
Cook Arctic, exploration party has re-
turned to St. John’s, N. J ., for repairs,
having been in collision with an ice-
berg.
The Vigilant won her third victory
yesterday over the Britannia in the
race at Queenstown and made the best
time on record over a fifty-mile course
in light winds. "
A caucus of democratic senators was
held last night hoping to agree on some
tarifi‘ action, but adjourned without
result. It looks more and more as if
no bill could be passed and the McKin-
ley law would remainin force.
Ex-Speaker Reed was renominated'
for Congress yesterday. The chairman
of the convention concludedrhis speech
with a prediction that Mr. Reed will be
Speaker of the next House of Repre.
sentatives and the next President of
the United States.
The ‘annual cOnvention of the Inter-
national Order of King’s Daughters
and Sons was opened at Oeg’an Grove
yesterday. ' I I
There was a reasonably large city
meeting yesterday to consider and ap-
{ .
propriate money for an inérease of our
city watersupply. The commissioners
had secured agreements item-5,1111 the
mill-rights 111011;; the Silver Minestream
from the head of the Union Company’s
pondup to the Grape reservoir. . The
Union Company’s release could not be
secured for the reason of its now being
in the hands of a receiver, but no diffi-
culty is likely to result from this, inas-
much as the right can be obtained by
legal action in condemnation proceod~
ings, if an amicable agreement is not
reached. Some $12,300 was appropri-
ated to pay for the several rights agreed
upon. ‘
There was a sentiment expre8sed,
based on high expert hydraulic engi-
neer authority, that these various water
power privileges along our stream were
benefitted in seasons of drouth, by the
storage of the water, rather than in-
jured, and that the sums paid for release
of these millvsite privileges were exces-
sive. A majority, however, felt and
voted it to be better to purchase out-
right all theseinterests and have them
hereafter under the city’s absolute con-
trol. '
It was a disappointment to many.
present that no action was taken to-
wards raising the Grupe and Hoyt res-
ervoir dams and putting down a sixteen
or eighteen inch main in place of our
present small and inadequate one. ‘But
these are matters which legitimately
follow and not precede, the securing of
the water rights along the line. These
matters are next in order, and so the
settlement of water rights should not
be delayed, as they constitute the key
to our getting an increased water sup-
ply, which every one wants, and every
one at the meeting seemed to express a.
willingness to be taxed to pay for. Let
the good work go promptly forward.

As Others See Him.
Says the Stamford Advocate: “It
will be remembered that last February
a couple of Honnecker’s hirelings came
over here on Sunday and bought liquor
in several saloons. The spirits had such
an effect upon oneof them that he kick-
ed up a row when he got home and was
sent to jail. Honnecker came here and
wanted to present his evidence to the
Civic League. Representatives of that
organization declined to‘ireat with him.
Then he drew up a dozen warrants and
took them to Judge Downs for signa-
ture. The Judge signed a couple of
them and said that it might be as well
to delay signing the others until these
were tried. Several weeks afterwards,
Attorney Walsh of Norwalk (the man
who defended O’Reilly yesterday) ap-
peared before the City Court, represent-
ing Honnecker, and moved to nolle
these cases because one witness was in
jail and the other could not be found.
The nolle was entered.
In the meantime, however, it appear-
ed that Honnecker had been “settling’ 1
with the other liquor-dealers against
whom complaints had been drawn, on
the basis of $63 apiece. Several dealers
paid that sum. Lawyers in Stamford
expressed astonishment at the transac-
tion. ,Nobody came forward to show
what right Mr. Honhecker had to con-
stitute himself a court and impose pen-
alties. It was given out that the $63
was “costs,” and that the caseswere to
be “nolled.” But the costs legally tax-
able would not amount to anything like
that sum, and it is customary to nolle
a case, if at all, with the knowledge
and consent of a court. These cases
never have been brought before the
court, because no warrants had been
issued by Judge Downs. Through the
interference of the legal representative
of the Stamford liquor-dealers, Mr.
Honnecker returned ' about half the
money in some if not all the instances.
Members of the Bar here eXpressed
themselves warmly about Honneck-
er’s conduct, and there was talk of pre-
ferring charges against him, but the
thing was let drop. Mr. Honnecker
has not shown a disposition to ."uphold
the supremacy of the law in Stamford
since that time, and it will be news to
a good many people here that he is
still doing business as prosecuting agent
at the old stand.”

Adopted a Pug.
The other day a pug dag belonging
to a Bidgefield party gave birth
“puggy” but soon after died. A t
the same time a “tabby” cat owned by
the same family gave birth to a litter of
five kittens, all of which including the
mother "got along as well as could be
expected.” The owner of the canine
and the felines, Emmett Beers, placed
the “puggy” with the young kittens,
the mother of which took kindly to him
and made no distinction in her atten-
tions to him, whether - at m'eal‘,«-Wash or
play' hours. Mr. Beers is delighted and
also puzzled as to whether later on
“piiggy” will talk in the feline 01' canine
language. As a rule a pug-dog don’ t

this one nursing some ‘fcat sense” and

SPECIAL CITY MEETING
The Sum of $12,300 Appropriated
for Purchase oT-Wat'er Rights.
Condemnation Proceedings Or-
dared.
About sixty voters assembled in the
dusty and cobwebby room knOwn as
the Town Hall, Tuesday afternoon, in
response to a call for a city meeting for
the purpose of taking action on the fol-
lowing matters:
1. To make the necessary appropriation of
money, if deemed advisable. for the purchase
or condemnation of the water and mill rights
between Grupe’s Reservoir and the City of
Norwalk,f0r the purpose of laying a water
pipe of larger size than the one already laid.
2. To change the roadWays where necessary
for the purpose of increasing the water supply
of the city, and to make the necessary appro-
priation therefor; and
3. To appropriate the necessary money to
lay a pipe of sufficient dimensions to bring an
adequate supply 0f water from Grupe’s Reser-
voir t0 the city. .
The meeting was called to order by
Mayor Keeler, and city clerk Lock-
wood readthe call. 6
Water commissioner Mead was pres-
ent and stated that the board of water
commissioners had investigated the
matter of water rights between Grupe’s
reservoir and the Union factory in this
city, and with the exception of the
right claimed by the Union Manufac:
turing company, had secured what they
believed to be the lowest figures ob-
tainable from the owners to secure the
rights wished for and that they aggre-
gated 314,250, and that they had been
unable to make any bargain with the
Union company.
Mr. B. W. Maples moved that the
offers of each of the owners of the ~
property desired be taken up and acted
upon separately. He objected to the
money being appropriated in a lamp.
The city was entitled to a full supply of
water and ought to have it,
A. E. Austin inquired as to what
would be the benefit of securing all of
the rights without being able to get
those of the Union Manufacturing com-
pany.
Commissioner Mead said that he had
talked with Mr. Bishop, president of
the Union company, and it was his
opinion that the rights could not be se-
cured unless by condemnation proceed-
ings. Said the city of course had the
right to put down whatever size pipe it
chose but Would be forced to pay for
extra supply of water.
-Mr. A. H. Byington asked if the
commissioners had made any estimate
of the expense for the entire cost of a
greater supply of water, and was in-
formed by Mr. Mead that the entire
expense would be about $54,000. He
said that when the water system was
first introduced here, he at his own ex-
pense secured an engineer from Hart
ford, who suggested that the ground
near Daniels’ mills was the better fitted
for a dam than any other and the sup-
ply could be increased from time to
time as a greater supply was needed,
but the suggestion was not acted upon
and an‘Other site was chosen. He be-
lieved that enough water was wasted at
Grupe’s dam at certain seasons to fill
the scarcity in the summer or dry sea-
son. He said that he had visited
Grupe‘s and foundothe pond had, fully
ten feet of mud at the bottom. Thou-
sands of dollars had been squandered
on the present works. The city had no
money to fool away but water wasa
necessity and we must have it. That
when water was most needed was just
the time when there was a scarcity of
the same. He believed in getting a
first-class engineer to investigate and
report before a large sum of money was
expended. He meant no disparagemen't
to the ability of Engineer Wood or the
water commissioners in making the
suggestion.
Gen. D. N. Couch said that the city
now had only a right to use a twelve
inch pipe from the Grupo reservoir and
he was in favor of a sixteen inch or ’
even larger pipe if necessary. He did
not think the price asked by the owners
of the water rights needed as being ex-
ccssive.
Engineer Wood said that the location
spoken of by Mr. Byington was a good
one, but that if it had been selected it
would have entailed an expense of $150,-
000. He had in company with Engineer
Van Buren visited different sites and
they both practically agreed that the
one proposed was the better of all.
Mr. A. 0. Arnold asked as to how
much water was needed for a full daily
supply, but was not fully answered.
Engineer Wood said that more than
a 12 inch pipe was necessary; was in fa-
vor of a 16 inch pipe instead of a 24ihch
pipe. The latter would cost double,
and the interest on the difference in the
cost would amount to enough in twenty-.
five years to lay another 16 inch pipe.
Thought it a good plan to run pipe di-
rect to the head of Belden avenue, and
the overflow would. be sufficient to fill .
the reservoir. He was of the opinion
that the mill owners were benefitted by
'Grupe’ s reservoir.
It was voted that the meeting proceed
to consider the prices asked by the
mill owners, separately. /~
The first Was that of Isaac W. Daniels
who asked $1,000. Commissioner Tread-
".331
purchase the same. i?- f 4-
The secOnd was that of Blanchard’s
mill, (so called) for which the sum of
$3, 500 was asked. It was voted that
the Commissioners secure the same of
Franklin A. Smith for $2,500 or else by
condemnation proceedings.
Mr. Charles Olmstead asked as to
probable cost of condemnation proceed-
‘ings and was answered by Mr. Warner
that it would perhaps cost $750. .
The third right was that Of John W.
Buttery who wanted $3,500. It was
voted that the Commissioners purchase
the same for 82,500 or secure it by con—
'demnation.
The fourth was that of William W
Austin he wanted $1, 000 and the com:
missioners were instructed to purchase
the same.
The fifth was that of Henry Guthrie
who had two mill sites. He asked «‘63,-
000. and the commissioners were an-
thorized to secure the same at the fig-
ures asked.
The sixth was owned by William H.
Davis and the price asked was $2, 500
and the commissioners were instruct ed
to purchase the same for $2, 500.
As each right was brought. up the
value of the same was fully discussed
by Messrs. Isaac Selleck, A. 13. Camp,
A. H. Byington, A. E. Austin, Dr. J.
G. Gregory, B. W. Maples and others.
The seventh and last was that of the
Union manufacturing company. Com:
missioner Treadwell was of the opinion
that concessions Would be made by the
Receiver in time. Gen. Charles Olm-
stead was in favor of condemnation pro-
ceedings. Mr. Byington was in favor
of getting some‘definite ofi'er from the
company. Mr. Maples thought that
nothing would have been accomplished
by the meeting if some decisive action
was not taken in this matter; said he
owned 35 shares of the Union manufac-
turing stock for which he paid the mu-
nificent sum of two dollars. '
After some further discussion rele-
vant/and irrelevant, it was voted that
the commissioners be authorized to
bring condemnation proceedings for
the acquirement of the rights desired.
On motion of B. W. Maples it was
voted the sum of $12,300 be appropria-
ted to secure the rights voted upon and
the city council was instructed to turn
over to the commissioners the «money
needed as fast as the rights were ac-
quired. ,The vote was by ballot and
stood 46 fin. to 6 against.
The meeting then adjourned with out
having acted upon other matters incor-
porated in the call for the meeting.
Death of' an Inventor.
Simon Ingersoll, mention of .whose
death at Glenbrook was made in these ..
columns on Tuesday, was the inventor
of the Ingersoll rock drill. His invent-
ion caused a sensation when he placed
it before the public many years ago,
and to~dayit is considered among the
most useful of the appliances used in
railroad building. Mr. Ingersoll was
born in Greenwich, Conn., and enjoyed
the friendship of many of the noted men
of the time. He lost his fortune years
ago and died a poor man. At the time
of his death hewas at work on an inven-
tion for reducing friction on the shafts
of ocean steamships and said that he
had practically perfected it. By the
appliance, he said, much greater speed
could be obtained with greatly reduced
consumption of 'Ooal. The deceased
was 75 years of age, and was a brother-
in-law of Charles W.-Hoyt, of this city.

She was also lame. Her hat was a mar-
vel and her clothing tattered, torn and
filthy. Strangely enough she claimed
