Th'e United States Senate.

On March 4, 1897, the Republican
party will assume absolute control of
the United Stites Senate. As the result
of Tuesday’s elections Republicanism,
gains a Senator from New York in place
of Hill, from Ohio in place of Brice and
from Maryland in place of Gibson.
This insures Republican dominance in
the Senate beyond all question until
1890. It will give the Republican Pres-
ident who will be elected next Novem-
ber support in the upper branch of
Congress. It will make tarrflf’ revision
and prompt reversal Of the Cleveland
foreign policy possible.

It is not unlikely, moreover, that the
Republicans may be enabled practically
to command the Senate during thccom-
ing winter. Utah has voted for state~
hood in compliance with the enabling.r
not passed by Congress, and has elected

two Republican Senators. This gives
the Republicans 44. votes in 'a body of
90 members. If Colonel Henry A. Du-
pont, from Delaware, is seated, the
Republicans will have just one-half the
Senate. There are 37 Democratic and
8 Populist Senators. At least two of
the Populists——Jones and Stewart, of
Nevada—are in sympathy with general
Republic-in politics except on the cur-
rency. If either of these men votes
with the Republicans they can reorgan-
ize the Senate and control its proceed-

iu gs through the next session.‘

Educational Food Shows.

 

 

The various Grocer Assmiations of

the Country have found by experieniie‘

that it pays to exhibit good food pro-
ducts in an artistic manner and With at-
tractive surroundings, and to invite the
public to inspect them. Annual food
exhibitions have come to be regarded
as permanent institutions and their
growing popularity in past years give
promise of increased interest and value.
A large and successful exhibit has been
running for several days in New York
and another is now claiming a lively
public interest in the great Quaker city
of Philadelphia. One is now held year-
ly in Washington, and has become one
of the educational features at the Na-
tional Capitol.

For the first century of our national
life the problem that confronted the
people who were felling the forests,
opening the mines, constructing the
establishing manufactories
and building the cities, was how to live
at all. Since the task of subduing a
continent to the purposes of civilization
hasfibeen largely achieved, the people

A Good Suggestion.

One of the old-lime blacksmiths of
Nor-walk makes the suggestion that as
the late John McQuhae was the oldest
blacksmith in the State, the Norwalk
shops be closed on Monday afternoon,
the day of his funeral, and all proprie-
tors and workmen attend in a body.
Example for Norwalk’s Town Court

John Pinders, 71 years of age, in the
Waterbury court yesterday, was fined
by Judge Gowell $20 and costs, for be-
ing drunk, $10 and costs for assaulting
a saloon-keeper, $40 and costs for as-
saulting Chief of Police Eagan, and
sentenced to 120 days in jtll for being
a common drunkard.

Foot Ball.

It would seem as though Jupiter
Pluvius had a spite against the Y. M. C.
A. foot ball teams of Norwalk and Dan-
’bury. ‘ To-day, for the third time, he
has limit his sprinkling pot on the
grounds where they proposed playing,
both in this city and at Danbury. The
puzzler lies in the fact that both are
Y. M. C. A. teams.

Masonic.

Harmony Lodge, No. 67, F. St A. Ma,
of New Canaan, will hold a regular

Bridgeport Defeated at Chess.

A delegation of expert chess players,
the pick of the Bridgeport Chess club,
visited this city last' evening for the
purpose of trying issues with the Nor-
walk club. ‘

"It was with evident confidence,”
quoth the Bridgeport Union, “that they
wended their way to Norwalk, and the
confidence was still to be discerned as
they sat themselves down to the tables.
But there was a difference both in feel-
ings and looks when the delegation
turned their faces toward home.”

The feelings and looks were natural
when the cause was taken into consider-
ation, the visitors having suffered de-
feat by a score of ten games to one.

Our own Dr. A. H. Baldwin succeeded
in defeating Bridgeport’s clack player,
Charles Gotthart.

The last game of the evening fell to
Norwalk, and was won by Reporter
James K. Maples, and that too when it
seemed apparent to those witnessing
the game, that it must surely be won
by his Opponent. “Jimmy” played an
uphill game and stuck to it With the
pertinacity of a reporter after an item
that his‘ chief had told him he must get.
It was altogether an “off” night for
the Bridgeport players. The following
players fought for the honors:

Wlll TO THE KNIFE. ’ l

The consolidated Railroad Will
Take a Hand in lhe Fighl Be- .
tween Norwalk Electric
Roads.

 

Electric Motors and Passenger Cars
to be Run From Winnipauk and ' '
Norwalk to Connect With all
Tralns at South Nor-
walk.

People in and about. Norwalk have

wondered why the magnates of the Con-

solidated Railroad have evinced so lit-
tle intirest in the matter of getting

passengess to and from their trains at
their new stations now located so near

to Whistleville. Indeed, friends of our

two street trolley car systems, have

charged that the Consolidator] officials
.havestudiously anal very adroitly and

subtley done all they could to prevent
these street cars from forming any fea-

sible and convenient connection with
their depots. ‘

An explanation of all this hitherto
mysterious and unexplained action on
the part of the Consolidated, has been
P‘furnished the GAZETTE from a source
entitled to the highest credence. It is
to the effect that as soon as the Dan-

bnry branch can be double tracked, it
is the purpose of lhc Consolidated
which now owns the ninety-nine year’s
lease negotiated for and secured in be-
half of the Housatonic syst:m by the
late Hon. Wm. H. Barnum to equip
this lower end of the Dinbury road with
electric motors and passenger cars,
which will run as far north, certainly as
Winnipauk and probably as far as Wil-
ton, and these cars to connect with all
the steam trains coming to, "and depart-
ing from the South Norwalk stations
not served by Danbury through trains.

Of course these electric local trains
cannot compete with our two already
established street lines in picktug up
and dropping Off passengers resident at
all points along the highways now tra-
versed by them and remote from the
Bridge, Winnipauk and East Norwalk
depots. But that the revenues of both
lines are to be seriously reduced by this
scheme Of the Consolidated, cannot be
doubted.

President Clark is known to be a
thorough convert and indeed an enthu-
siast in the matter of electric motive
power for short hauls. He is quoted as
purposing to replace the present steam-
service on'the Ridgefield branch with
electric motors; also on the Stamford
and New Canaan branch and that
should the East avenue Tramway’s pro-
posed extension up through Silver Mine
t) New Canaan, prove a withdrawer of
Consolidated patronage, instead of a
feeder of this great, colossal, and pow-
erful corporation, that the Tramway
Company will wake up some fine morn-
ing and find itself in the ownership and
control of the Consolidated. In other
words the Consolidated believes the
state Of Connecticut has conferred upon
it, the special power and privilege of
conducting the passenger carrying
trade of our entire commonwealth and
they propose to do thisin the most com-
plete and thorough manner.

Another statement reaches the GA-
zur'rn, not, however, as responsibly
authenticated as is the foregoing, that
recently efforts have been quietly made
by parties in the supposed interest of
the Consolidated, for the purchase of
the whole extended line Of Compo’s
beautiful and unrivaled beach. If this
can be secured upon reasonable terms,
the story goes on to narrate, an im-
mense summer hotel and pavilions, bath
houses, etc., will be erected, and this
point made the most ample and attract-
ive shore resort any where on the shores
of Long Island Sound. To and from
this and the main line of the Consoli-
dated, an electric road is to be con—
structed, which while nominally owned
by an independentgcorporation, yet asa
matter of fact, will be under the control
of the Consolidated.

President Clark was In Europe the
past season and thoroughly acquainted
himself with the almost universal and
profitableness of the railway ownership
in railroad station hostleries, that pre-
vail all over Great Britain and south-
ern Europe, and is said to be ambitious
to be the first railroad manager to in-
augurate this money-making hotel en-
terprise in this country, and a summer
hotel at Compo, under the CODSOIidated
management could not fail to be a
popular and profitable delight.

At all events, the near future seems
big with electrical transportation com-
petition. -

A Motion to Reopen the Case of
Sykes vs. the Norwalk Tram-
way Company.

The case of James C. Sykes against
the Norwalk Tramway Company came
up before Judge Elmer in the Superior
court, yesterday, on a motion by De-
Forest 85 Klein, counsel for the defen-
dants, to reOpen the case on the ground
that new eivdence had been discovered.
Judge DeForest’s ground upon which
he asked for a reopening was that Sykes,
who in the original complaint alleged
that he was suffering from consumption
as a result of the accident, was suffer-

ing from lung trouble at the time of

the accident, and on the day it occurred
was afflicted with a severe cough; also
that previous to the accident he had had
hemorrhages and was suffering from
chronic bronchitis. In relation to the
claim for expense for medical services,
Judge DeForest said the Foresters had
paid all that, and last July Sykes was

' reported t ) the court of which he was a

member, as ‘ having recovered, and
thereforc not entitled to further bene~
fits. I 3‘

Stiles Judson, Jr., counsel for the
plaintiff, claimed that the molion to re-
open the case should not be allowed.
He alleged that defendants were aware
of what they now claimed before the
evidence was concluded in the trial of
thetcase. ,

In reply Judge DeForest said that
Dr. Sheedy had sworn that he had a
claim of £5200 against Sykes for medi-
cal attendance. He proposed to show
that Dr. Sheedy had no claim whatever
against Sykes, as they were both mem-
bers of an order of which Dr. Shecdy
was the physician, and legally bound
by the rules of the order to attend
Sykes. He referred to Dr. heedy in
scathing terms, and did not hesitate to
say that he believed the doctor’s course
was not one to be placed among honest
transactions. -

Judge Elmer, after hearing‘the argu-
ments of the counsel, said the motion
was one that involved important ques-
tions, that he would not decide at once.
He would take the papers for consider-
ation.

acts of the piece. Oliver Byron will be

day afternoon, after wild ducks, but
there being a dense fog no ducks were
sighted and the gunners went ashore on
Cockenoes island where they shot a fine
specimen of the genus Ardea and two
specimens of those nocturnal carniver-
ous birds commonly called owls. The
birds Will be placed in the hands of a
taxidermist for preservation.

The Hour intimates and the intima:
tion seems to be born out by facts, that

and 'Charles Stokes, an ex-Westport
saloon-keeper have eloped. Both par-
ties it is asserted have disposed of their
personal property at at great sacrifice
and have gone west to enjoy themselves
and in is to be expected later on to re-
pent of their foolishness.
