We ’Are the Saints.
Yesterday, one of our citzens ex-
pressing his opposition to, the purpose
of the Norwalk Street Railway Com-
pany to ask the legislature to permit 'it
to gridiron about every highway in
town with its tracks, (as has been ob-
scurely advertised,) says this corpora-
tion must think itself a sort of annex
to the western “Hard Shells'” who met
in convention and “Resolved, that ,the
. earth and the fullness thereof, belongs
to the Saintsof the Lord. Resolved
2nd, we are the Saints.”
Au Revolr.
Mayor-elect Bubb’ell, with his family
and cousin, left to-day for their pur-
posed winter sojourn at Greenville, S.
C. Mr. Hubbell expects to return to
.Norwalk the latter part of next month,
when he will take the mayorality oath
and then probably tender his resigna-
tion, as the ill health of Mrs. Hubbell
renders a winter’s residence at the
south imperitive. All good wishes of
their hosts of friends here and herea-
bouts go with them, and all earnestly
hOpe for the restoration to good health
of his esteemed estimable wife. Au

Hope For the Union M’f. Co.
In another cdumn of today’s GA-
ZETTE will be found a plain, unvarnish-
ed tale of the present unfortunate
condition of our once great and pros-
perOus Union Manufacturing Company
and a candid recital of its future hopes
and possibilities. How this formerly
great dividend earning hive of local
industry came to thus drift upon the
shoals of bankruptcy, is not so easy of
explanation. It is, however, and doubt-
less substantially explained by the want
of capable administration. More manu-
factories go to the wall because of in-
competent management than from all
else beside. This knowledge now hav-
ing been gained and competent men
beingwilling to join in a reorganiza-
.. tiou oi the compaliy, .it wouldiseemr the
parto’f wisdom for all the old stock-
holders to put their hands in their
pockets and their shoulders to the
wheel and help to put this great proper-
ty again upon a paying basis. Failure
to do this, means, of course, a, losslto
any such stockholder, of all his present
interest in the concern with no possible
chance of future recovery. The state-
ment given out by the direction, indi-
cates the purpose to give every old
stock-holder a fair and equitable chance
to regain his losses. Upon every
ground of personal profit and public
benefit, it is sincerely to be hoped that
a speedy re-organizatiOn of this corpor-
ation,‘ may be effected and 'another
"smokeless factory chimney” soon be
sending up its wreathes of fuel cloud,
indicative of remunerative industry.
v o
it Can’t Be Done. '
The Philadelphia Record, a vigorous
tariff reform Democratic newspaper,
says:
“The tariff controversy is practically
at an end, or, at least, it will not seri-
ously disturb the deliberations of Con-
gress for many a. year to come.”
Various Democratic Senators and
Representatives are giving utterances
to statements quite Opposed to the
Record’s cheerful and pacific predic-
tions. They do not, by. any means,
admit that the “controversy is practi-
cally ended.” Throughout the campaign
they declared that'the war must go on.
Undismayed by disaster their voice is
still for war. While these warriors do
not propose that the House shall repass
the Wilson bill and send it to the
Senate, they do propose something that
wil ‘ ‘seriously disturb the deliberations
of Congress.” if persisted in, and will
compel the President to call the Ffty-
fourthCongress in extraordinary session
soon after the 4th of next March to
pass the appropriation bills for the
next fiscal yenr.
In other words, these gentlemen de-
clare that the “popguns” must be fired.
But they cannot be put through the
Senate in opposition to-a determination
of the Republican Senators not to let
them go through. The attempt to pass
either of them will Open up a discussion
of the tariff question in all its forms
and phases. The results of the cam-
paign have naturally braced the opposi-
tion to these bills, and the Republican
Senators will be prepared to do all the
talking required to insure their defeat.
The friends of the “pOpguns” will have
it in their power to cause an extra. ses~
sion, involving the loss of'many good
places ‘ held by“ _t‘lieirvfriends in the
House, but they will signaliy fail in:
any attempt they may make to get those}
'bills on to the statute book.
An, the Republican Senate’s who,”
have "rexpressed ._ their, views "on this;
questigafi are "in accord. All _of them
declare that no mere tarifi' legislation
shall be done by.the Fifty-third Con-
gteflfi- They expect to oppose it as

Stopped 5at a Stone Fence.
The screams of two young ladies
startled what few pedestrians there
were abroad .on Noroton Hill about
ten o’clock last evening. The young
ladies, with blanched faces, were seated
in a carriage which was being whirled
along as fast as the frightened horse
could draw it. The animal finally
slacked up near the foot of a stone
fence and the fair occupants, when
they had recovered from their fright,
eXplained to several people, who had
been attracted by their screams, that,
the driver, a young man, had been
thrown out near the top of the hill.
Hesoon'appeared with a badly scratch-
ed face and a cut on the forehead, and
after repairing a few damages on the
harness drove off without giving any
information regarding the cause of the
accident to those standing near. _It
was afterwards learned that the. trio
belonged in N orwalk.—Stamford Advo-

Billy Lost the Fight.‘
About 40 sporting men from Bridge-
port, Ansonia and South Norwalk as-
sembled near a well-known sporting
resort on the Bridgeport road, within
the city limits of Shelton early Sunday
morning to witness a fight between
John Bammessel’s brindle dog Ladd,
and “Jerry” Martin’s black dog Billy
for $75 a side and the gate money.
Ladd, the South Norwalk dog, weighed
24 pounds, and Billy, the Bridgeport
Bammessel handled
Ladd, and a well knoWn Ansonia pa-
tron of the prize ring handled Billy.
A Bridgeport man was referee. Billy
was the favorite in the betting, his
backers offering $25 to $20 that he
would win the fight. Billy lost the
fight after nearly two hours’ battle.

Captured the Mother.
A good story is told of a woman who
refused to allow her daughter to go to
a foot ball game with a student who in-
vited her, because, she said it was a
brutal game. The young man invited
her to come herself and see that it was
not as she claimed. He overcame her
objections and she attended. Before
the game was half through this woman
of 50 years, was standing in her seat
frantically waving her shawl and shout-
lng 'to her favorites to “kill ’em kill

35 years old and married. After the
accident the train hands were unable
to touch the body, as two dogs belong-

The Union Manufacturing Com-1

The Organization of a New Com-
pany Proposed.
The Trustee of the Union Manufa ct-
uring company has sold the stock of
goods and material on hand, and there
is still a deficiency to be made up from
asale of the mill and machinery, of
about thirty-eight thousand dollars, to
pay the debts of the Company and ex-
penses. ,
It now remains with the stockholders
to say what they will do toward savmg
this valuable plant and franchise, as
well as to protect their own interests.
The banks who are the heaviest credi-
tors outside of president W. F. Bishop,
are anxmus for a settlement, and the
trustee has advertised the property for
sale.
A number of the stockholders desire
to form a new company with a capital
of from forty to one hundred‘thousand
dollars and buy in the property. As
there are some sixty stockholders of
the Company, the directors have
caused a statement of the facts to be
sent to them inviting them to join in
the organization of a new company.
They are requested by the circular to
consider the matter and make a reply
before December 10th, to Charles A.
Quintard, secretary of the company,
and they will then be notified of a
meeting to be held for the consumma-
tion of thelabove purposes.
The letter sent out was authorized by
a meeting of the directors held on N ov-
ember 22, and it remains to be seen
what action the stockholders will take
in the matter.
There are three creditors who have
claims amounting to some $50,000
against the company and $20,000 of this
must be- raised. If the stockholders
agree to organize a new company these
claims will be paid and work will be
resumed at the factory. If, however,
the stockholders decline to enter into
the organization of a new company the
valuable plant and franchises will be
sold to the creditors unless an outside
party comes forward and makes a
higher offer than the creditors are will-
ing to do. As this is not likely to occur,
it would look as though the small
Stockholders, unless willing tojoin with
the larger ones, will be left out in the
cold, when the trustee completes the
sale of the property.

An Italian stonemason. known by the
name of "Louis”- ' was killed, this
morning, by the Boston express that
arrives at South N orwalk at 9.09. He
was walking on the trackatthe time of
the accident and was struck in the left
shoulder by the engine and rolled over
several times. His leg was broken and
his forehead split open, and he lived
but a moment after being picked up.
His body was carried to the baggage
room at the depot Where Medical Ex-
aminer Burke viewed it.
Louis and a fellow workman named
Joe Morrell left New York Monday to
come to South Norwalk in hopes of
obtaining work on F the Consolidated
improvements at Whistleville, They
arrived at West Farms on the Harlem
division in. the evening and found that
no moretrains to South N‘orwalk would
stop there.’ They”: spent the night in
that place and'took the 7' o’clock train
for South "Norwaik ' this morning.
When they arrived at the depot they
got off the train and walked down the
track towards Whistleville where they
made application for work.
The contractor offered to give them
work, but both refused to accept it on
account of the low wages offered. As
they could not come to any agreement

ed that- they walk back to the depot and
purchase tickets back to New York.
To this Morrell assented and they were
both on the way to the station when
Louis was killed. Morrell stated to a
GAZETTE representative that Louis was
walking on the, tracks while he was on
the path beside'the tracks. Louis was
carrying his tools on his right shoulder
and evidently did not hear the train
approaching although Morrell says he
called to him. Morrell further said
that the dead man had a wife and 4
year-old boy living in New York.
