TOWN VS. DASKAM.
Alleged Settlement During Cap-
tain Ike’s Absence.
Not Likely to Prove Binding 0“ the Town.
”—1--
This morning the selectmen settled
with Samuel Daskam, giving him a full
and clear receipt, and guaranteeing
him against any further action on be-
half of the town. The amount paid was
$746.50. B. W. Maples acted for Mr.
Daskam in the settlement.-—Hour.
The statement is made that taking
advantage of the absceuce of First Se-
lectman Selleck, a sort of settlement, as
‘ above stated, was effected by the other
two selectmen, Messrs. Themes and
Merrill. Selectman Selleck had stated
prior to leaving, that no settlement
could be effected that did not restore to
the Town’s Treasury at least one thous-
and dollars. That the books gave clear
evidence that a much larger sum than
31000 was in default and he, Selectman
Selleck, had instructed Mr. Warner,
the Town Counsel, to bring suit against
err-Selectman Daskam unless at least
one thousand dollars were refunded.
It is pretty certain that there will be
music by the full band when Capt. Ike
returns and finds that his absence was
taken advantage of, to f‘give a full and
clear receipt, guaranteeing him [Mr.
Daskam] against any future action on
behalf of the town.” v
The GAZETTE is not informed as to
the nature of the alleged defalcation;
whether it arises from careless book-
keeping, failure. to disburse monies
drawn from the town treasury, or what
not, although about everything is
‘ charged against Mr. Daskam in the
current gossip about the town, and it is
but simple justice to Mr. Daskam that
his side of the case be stated. The
Selectmens’ books for the entire term
of seven years, that Mr. Daskam was
our Selectman, should be thoroughly
gone over by an expert accountant, to
the end that the character of the ex-
Selectman "may be vindicated from
these serious aspersions, if innocent, or
that he may have an opportunity to
restore any monies found to be in de-
fault, should such be the result. As
Mr. Daskam has on two occasions paid
over monies claimed to have been dis—
covered to be due the town, he has cer-
tainly shown his willingness to make
good any just claims against him.
The appearance of B. W. Maples as
attorney for Mr. Daskam, in the case,
suggests the pertinent inquiry whether
.any portion of this $746.50 Mr. Daskam
has restored, was to cover the $500 he
was wheedled out of by the aforesaid
Maples for his alleged week’s serVice as
teacher of a night school?
A leading Norwalk Attorney states
that any such agreement as has been
entered into as stated above, is entirely
useless and inoperative in preventing
the town entering suit for the further
recovery of any ballauce or sum that
may be shown to b3 due from Mr. Dask-
am.
Let in the light upon this subject.
Our tax-payers have the right to know
all the facts concerning this hitherto
mysteriously conducted affair.

Little Damage Done by the Accident.
As William Troy was driving down
Main street, Saturday evening with one
of Liveryman Gregory's turnouts, his
carriage collided with a team owned by
John J. Campbell, which was hitched.
in front of John T. Hayes’ ‘ueWs office.
The Campbell wagon was overturned
but escaped serious damage. . ' _
The horse driven by Tgpy then shot
diagonally across the street and the
carriage striking a hvdrant in front of
the Boston store was overturned'and
ment.
The horse then "started to run but was
stopped in front of the Library, The
carriage was considerably wrecked.
A large crowd congregated and Troy
was taken to a point near the Street
Railway Station where Chief Bradley
examined him for injuries, which he
found so far as he could decide, were
confined to his left leg near the ankle.-
Troy after a while was able to get on
his feet again and walked off, and it is
fair to presume went to his home, in
Broad River. He was about this morn-
ing but is going decidedly lame.
That the runaway was not without
more serious results is remarkable
from the fact that at the time the side-
walks were crowded with men, women
and children.
It was evident that the accident was
due wholly to the carelessness of the
man who was driving the horse.
The Gregory turnout escaped with
perhaps damages not in excess of $10.
It was taken back to the stables by the
parties who brought it to a stop.
Our “Sam.”
A Stamford correspondent writes the
Herald thnslyz—
“ ‘Sam’ Fessenden appears to be get-
ting rid of as" much legal business as
possible, in order that he may devote
his entire attention to politics later.
He will make some speeches for Mc-
Kinley, and he will look out for No. 1.
The canvass for the United States Sen-
atorship will be the feature of the cam-
paign, for Connecticut’s electorial vote
is regarded as so sure for McKinley that
voters are debating whether it is worth
while to have torchlight processions:
pyrotechnics and mass meetings.
“Mr. Fessenden knows Connecticut
from Groton to Greenwich, and his
friends throughout the State are con-
fident of obtaining for him the requisite
number of votes in the next Legislature
to make him United States Senator.”
It is expected that “Sam” will be
opposed by “Tom” Waller as the demo-
cratic nominee.

May Prove Fatal.
Clapp Spooner, ex-president of the
Adams Express company, and one of
Bridgeport’s wealthiest citizens, was
knocked down by a horse and trampled
upon as he was about to board a car at
the corner of Golden Hill and Main
street, near his home last night. The
driver of the team gave the name of
George Junior and escaped in the ex-
citement. An examination of Spooner’s
injuries showed that the body was badly
bruised and his right side fractured.
As he is 73 years old, it is feared that
the injuries may prove fatal.

products in the state. . Altogether there
were 849 articles of food of 14 different

one of them was found some adultera-

did not contain a bit of the product for
which they were sold. There was no
poisonous adulteration found in any-
thing except a certain kind of mustard,
in which Martins yellow, a poison, had
been placed in small quantities, to give
it a good color.

Ladies Depas i When the Scaap Begins.
The management of the Gospel tent,
it is acknowledged, have been doing
good work since its location on the
leases properltgrn Wall street. Evan-
gelist Johnso" s evidently a. hard and
the Lord. Naturally there are good
men who are inclined to doubt his
,methods of bringing about a change ‘of
heart to his listeners.
Yesterday, it is understood, a good
Baptist deacon, (to use the vernacular
of those who lean up against the fence
and listen) “called down” the evange-
list, and. there was a war of words dur-
ing which the ladies present got up and
left the tent fearirr that there would
be a game of fisticufi‘s.
After the close of the Sunday after-
noon meeting Evangelist Johnson came
down from the platform and as is his
custom gave those present a hearty
hand-shake. _
Reaching good brother Bently he
grasped his hand and was about to
commend him in what he had done in
the cause of christianity, when as be'
fore mentioned the Deacon “called
down” the Evangelist as to his theo-
logical views. This led up to an argu-
ment in which the Evangelist was led
to say, “You haven’t God in your heart;
you should pray more.” .
“And then there was music” says one
present. ' The hand shaking threat-
ened'to develop into what is tabooed by
church societies, i. e. the manly art of
self defence as taught at boxing school.
.Good'filay members came to the rescue
and what strife the devil or his angels
had incited was stopped. Thanks be to
the ladies who were not frightened and
ran away.
