Wasnixdrorv, D. 0., March 24, ’90. DEAR Gazurru z—The House passed the. general pension appropriation billFriday, and then passed the bill for the retirement of General John C. Fremont as major general Of the regular army. From Gen- eral Spinola’s just and eloquent report the following extracts are clipped : i “The name of General Fremont is identified forever with some of the proud- est and most grateful passages in American history. His 20,000 miles of wilderness explorations in the midst of the inclemen- cies of nature and the ferocities of jealous and merciless tribes, his powers of endur. anCe in a slender form, his intrepid cool- ness in the most appalling dangers, his majestic sway over savage and enlightened men, his vast contributions to science, his controlling energy in the extenswn of .Our empire, his lofty and unsullied ambition, his iriagnaniniity, humanity, genius, suf- feiiiigs and heroism, should make . all levels of progress, learning and virtue rejoice that Fremont’s Services havebeen rewarded by the admiration and gratitude of the nation and mankind. ' The feet of three men have pressed the slopes Of the Rocky Mountains, whose names are associated forever with these ranges. Humboldt, the Nestor of scien- tific travelers; Audobon, the interpreter of nature; and Fremont, the pathfinder Of empire. The youngest of all is as 11- lustrious as either, for fortune has linked‘ his name with the history of the republic as startling to the world as the announce- ment of its existence. To him was com- mitted the task of Opening the gates of our golden Pacific empire. He planned the first of those distant and perilous expeditions which have given lustre to his name. ~ ' . Having received a lieutenant’s commis- sion of the Corps of Topographical En- gineers, he prOposed to the secretary of war to penetrate the Rocky Mountains. His plan was-approved, and in 1842 With a handful of men gathered on the Missouri frontier he reached and explored the south pass;"lie achieved more than his instructions required. His report was printed by the Senate, translated into foreign languages, and the screntfic‘ world lookd upon Fremont as one of its bene- factors. Impatient, however, for broader and more hazardous fields, he planned a new expedition. His first had carried him to the summit of the Rocky Moun- tains, and in November, 1843, hestood Oh Fort Vancouver, witlr the calm waters of the Pacific at his feet. On. his return he was lost to the world nine months travers- ing 3,500 miles in sight of eternal snows, in which he eXplored and revealed the» grand features of Alta California, the Sierra Nevada, the Valley of San Joaquin and Sacramento, il' .l established the physical geOgraphy and natural history on the western part of our continent. He was again in Washington in August, .1844; his report put the seal to the fame of the young explorer. In 184-5 he was again on his way to the Pacific with his mountain comrades, to examine in detail the Pacific slope of the continent, which resulted in giving a volume of new science to the world and, California to the United States. ' _ His achievements, military and cry]. th‘m Jung ,, .. _ ..... "mu iuLX_ O illlgiiiz bccupatron by our naval and mili- tary forces, resulted in its acquisition. was rewarded by the people of California, when it became an independent and sovereign state, by making him the first senator to represent them in the Congress ‘of the United States.” - Representative Russell got through the Senate bill appropriating $75,000 for a public building at New London. He has also introduced a bill for the collection and publication in one volume of all the Presidential inaugural addresses delivered since the formation of the government till now. This will bea popular book, and thirty thousand copies are proposed in the bill to be printed. ' Senator Moody has introduced the bill, in which our Norwalk Dr. Bridges and other Connecticut veterinary surgeons have taken a special interest, creating the grade Of veterinary surgeon in the army with the grade and pay ofa lieutenant Of cavalry, about $125 per month. Senator Paddock has introduced a bill transferring the fish commissiou and all its officers and belongings to ,the control of the agricultural department. Senator Voorhees, who is both an ole—e quent debater anda first—class democratic politician, has got in-the following bid for the granger vote : Whereas, The deep and widespread de-~ pression and decay of the agricultural in- terests of the American peOple, the enor— mous and appalling amount Of mortgaged indebtedness of agricultural lands, the total failure of home markets to furnish remunerative prices for farm productions, the palpable scarcity and insufficiency of money in circulation in the hands of the people with which to transaet the business of the conntry and effect exchanges of property and labor at fair rates, are cir— cumstances of the most overwhelming importance to the safety and well being of the government ; therefore Be it resolved, That it is the highest duty of Congress in the present crisrs to lay aside all discussion and consideration of mere party issues, and to give prompt and immediate attention to the preparation and adoption of such measures as are required for the relief of the farmers and other over-taxed and underpaid laborers of the United States. . The Iowa, Kansas and other grangers have petitioned their representatives in Congress for the enactment of some measures Of relief from the prevailing distresses of the farmer classes. The Kansas Farmers’ Alliance call public at- tention to the depression of their business and the alarming increase of mortgaged indebtedness on farm lands. They demand legislation against trusts, combines, unjust discriminations in freights on the part of railroads, etc. The question of the gen- eral depression of agricultural interests has received elaborate consideration at the agricultural department and General Dodge, in a report made to Secretary Rusk, suggests the raising of a greater diversity of crops on the part of the farm- er, aud a general suppression Of “middle- men,” who, in late'years, have combined to devour all the profits of the farm. This unfortunate condition of the agriculturist does not seem to be confined to any one section, but every state in, the Union seems to be more or less affected. The amelioration of the farming industry is bound to be a live political issue until something practical is accomplished. The reports received at the department of agriculture from the Carolina rice belt are to the efiect that the crop of 1890 will be the largest and best'for many years. The open winter has facilitated planting, which is farther ahead than ever known before. DEATH OF GENERAL cnoox. The sudden death of the greatest of all our Indian generals was a painful shock to all his hosts Of friends here. The sec- retary of war at once issued an order to the army announcing his death and recit- ing his gallant services and expressing appreciation of the great loss sustained by the service. It includes the following tribute to his character : “General Crook was as truthful and sincere as he was fearless and brave, com- bining qualities admirably fitting him for the duties in which he was so long en- gaged upon the frontier. He could treat With the Indians successfully, for their faith in his honesty in the council was as strong as their fear of his courage and sagacity in the field. A true soldier, a good» citizen. faithful to duty, upright of purpdse, considerate to his interiors, smi— ple and modest in his demeanor towards all, his life and example may well be commended to all young men and espe- cially those of the army in which he so honorably served.” AUSTIN CORBIN’S STOLEN WINE. Special Agent Whitehead has made a report to the Treasury Department in re- gard to the complaint of Mr. Austin Cor— bin of the loss of a portion of wine import- ed by him while the same was in the public storehouse under Government control. He resents the imputation that public storehouse officials are given to stealing. A SUIT SETTLED. Chief Justice Fuller has just rendered an opinion hflirming the judgment. of the supreme court of the District of. Columbia in favor Of John H. Gheeu, in the suit brought against him by Seth Osborne, ad— ministratorof the estate of Cyrus Osborne- Tlie suit grOws out of a livery stable part- ncrship between Cyrus Osborne and Gheeu, begun in 1872 and terminated at the sus- gestion of Gheeu in 1881. Gheeu was the active member of the firm, while Osborne furnished the capital with which to begin the business. » The Osbornes were natives of Bedding and well known in Norwalk, and cousins to John Osborne, of West avenue. It is claimed that the deceased Cyrus put $30,000 into his partner’s hands, and, being no business man or bookkeeper, came out stripped of his fortune, while the partner, prevrously a poor man, now is rich. NORWALK FORTUNE mourn-0° The delegation of Norwalk capitalists en route to Tailapoosa, Ga., Spent a day at the capital, and then joined the through excursion of Boston business men, Wed- nesday night, and proceeded on their journey south. The party consisted of Major G. M. Holmes, Wm. R. Lockwood and Geo. R. Scofield, of the borough; R. H. Rowan, John H. Knapp, Edwin Adams, E. H. Mathewson, and our Rep- resentative, John H. Ferris, of the city, Wm. R. and Josiah R. Marvin, of East Norwalk. The purpose Of these “money kings” is conjectured not to be all for pleasure, but to join in :1 Norwalk syndi- cate for the purpose of securing some of the fabulous fortunes lying around loose in mines and real estate in Georgia and Alabama. Success to their venture. ‘ GENERAL scanner: DEAD. Gen. Robert Cumming Schneck, Con— gressman, soldier, diplomat, and a leader in public affairs-a generation or more ago, died Sunday. evening Of pneumonia, at his residence, on Thomas Circle, at the age of eighty-one years. It was not until Satur— day that it was thought that he was seriously ill, but from that‘time, his friends were prepared for the worst because of . his advanced age. nus. The committee of ways and means has not yet reported to the House, nor yet to the full committee, the completed parts of the new tariff bill.’ Nevertheless, that portion of the committee to whom the question of the tariff on hats was referred, has decided to recommend a duty Of 55 per cent. on all imported hats composed wholly of, or where fur is the article of chief value, in either wholly or partially manufactured hats for men’s, women’s Or children’s wear. Fifty-five per cent. was not as much as the hatters desired, but was as heavy a duty as the sub-committee deemed it possible to carry through the whole committee and through the House and Senate. Norwalk and Da‘nbury will be especially interested to know that there is so good a prospect Of securing even so large a duty as 55 per cent. ' MISCELLANEOUS. The House has unseated Compton, democrat, of Maryland, and given his place to Mudd, republican, by a vote of 155 to 145. Compton was returned by a vote of just even 16,000, Mudd receiving just 181 less. The evidence showed that in two Baltimore wards several hundred white and colored republicans were driven from the polls and were not allowed to vote for Mudd, and strong evidence also deduced that the vote was fraudulent. Senator Aldrich has secured the appOint- merit of 9. Providence financier for U. S. bank examiner for Connecticut and Rhode Island, in place of M. F. Dooley, of Hart- fOrd.’ This’-- is'the'ofilce'held by A. B. reach member of the committee presenting ., . . Mygatt. of New Milford, from the creation Of the Office to the advent of the Cleve— ~ land administration, and Senators Platt and Hawley conceded the" justice of let- ting “little Rhody” pick the present offi— cial bone. The Washington Post says, and its Edi— tor certainly knows, for he was once a pestmaster-general. that “it Will require hard work and lots of it, to convince ex- Consul General Waller that the Cleveland administration was a failure. During the Connecticut statesman’s residence at Lon- don, he established business relations which have since netted him a handsome fortune.” PERSONALS. The President slipped away Thursday p. m. to the eastern shore of Maryland, and returned Saturday evening with some sixty red head (not dead-head) ducks of his own shooting. Chairman McKinley hopes to be able to : report his tariff bill to the House by the end of the week, but his confidence is not generally shared. J. R. Montgomery, of Windsor Locks, reached here yesterday. Senator Hoar reported in favor Of the republican senators from Montana tO-day. Hon Wm. D. Bishop has issued a “cir- cular giving his Views in a clear and for- cible manner against the proposed opening by the government of Harlem river to general and unrestricted navigation. The widow ofN. P. Willis and “Lottie," or Miss Crabtrec, are quietly sojourning here. “Uncle Joe” Richardson, of Bridgeport, is a guest at the Langham in “close com- munion” with the Hon. Wm. D. Bishop. Whether it means more railroads in Con- necticut, new water works for Bridgeport, or a settlement of the Park City’s long endured Collectorship trouble, your cor- respondent is not advised. if it is the latter, he will bet his bottom nickel that Mr. George B. Edmonds will be confirmed l by the Senate as Collector Of the port for the Fairfield District, before the end of the present week. Rev. Dr. Augustus Beard does not seem to view Rev. Dr. Child’s departure from “the faith, as once delivered to the (Pros. byterian) saints,” as an unpardonable transgression, for he was recently a cor. dial visitor at Dr. Childs’ hospitable home here, and took a friendly sup Of tea with his aforetime denominational brother, just the same as if nothing extraordinary had happened. Prof. Loomis, of Yale College, deliver- ed a lecture and gave stercopticon illus- strations, of the Alps, at All Soul’s church here, Wednesday evening. Friend W. Smith, of Bridgeport, is facetious but inaccurate 'in his denial of having expressed his views effusively, as he had a right to do, in the matter of the post collectorship. J. B. E. Sayre, commercial agent, representing T. Cousins’ shoe manufac-, tory, of Nor-walk, was here two days last: week. 10"";“5 «(tot Ill": UUSIDCSS Interests" of his house. As ever, B. -————<+ . . That Railroad Conference.- F or two months past the subject has been under consideration, of sending a committee to confer with the president of the Con- solidated railroad as to the feasibility of building a. separate double track road from Portchester to New Haven in place Of~the four tracking the present line. ing was held Monday at 4 p. m. at the president's office at New Haven. There were present President Clark, Judge Woodward, General D. N. Couch and Messrs. Seymour, Hill, Hyatt, Wood, Greg- ory, Keeler, Wilson and Smith. 4 E. J. Hill and J. S. Séymour submitted written arguments and were followed by liis'individual view of the case. Memorials from the Warden and Burgesses, from the Norwalk Board of Trade, from the Select- men and a petition signed by every business man in the Borough, were presented. The Borough case being closed, President Clark took up the points in order, and gave to the committee a. full, frank and straightforward reply from the company’s standpoint, going into the merits of its engineering, econ- omic, political, and commercial aspects and meeting thewhole subject of the relations of the company to the people of the state, to other existing railroad company’s, to “parallel” efforts in the past and possibili- ties in the future, all with a candor, frank- ness and ability that not only surprised the committee, but thatcould not and did not, fail to produce the very best "of feeling. The discussion lasted nearly three hours and the points on both sides were fully and freely met and answered where the facts admitted an answer. At the close, Presi- dent Clark stated that the papers ‘would all be submitted to the Board of Directors and a full and fair consideration given to the subject. The committee came away with some new ideas on the subject "of railroads in Connecticut, with a clear conviction of the ability of President Clark to look out for the welfare of the company he represents, and with a unanimous expression of a feel- ing that they had enjoyed an exceedingly profitable and pleasant interview. ., It is greatly to be hoped that‘ the object of the meeting may be accomplished as there can be no question but that it would be of great benefit to this portion of the‘ state.

If our Norwalk Board of Trade is not humiliated beyond endurance and all our feelings. of local pride lashed and rasped unbearably, we must at once be up and do- ing in the matter of our New Hotel, or else be'outdone, eclipsed and forever degraded in the eyes of an enlightened world, by the liberality and enterprise of half civilized Mexico! President Diaz has succeeded in securing an appropriation from the con— gress of our southern sister Republic of a million dollars for the purpose of erecting in the city of Mexico a new hotel and the munificent subsidy is conditioned that the parties engineering the enterprise, shall put into the construction of the Hotel another million, so that Mexico is in the way of having the most costly, attractive and luxurious liostelry on the globe. President Diaz is a progressive ruler. He was an earnest and active patron for the building of the Mexican Central Railroad which connects with the Texas Pacific and makes his capital of easy and quiet access to New Orleans and all other American cities. He now sees that his capital city is deficient in hotel accommodations for the great army of tourists now pouring down into his semi- tropic country. The result is here pres- ented to an astonished world. Two mil- lions Of dollars are to be immediately put into the most palatial liostelry human hands know how to build. But. Norwalk wants no two-million hotel. Thirty to fifty thousand dollars will answer every need, beyond the purchase of a lot. We want no hotel made secondary to a line of stores beneath. Stores under hotels are going out Of fashion. They increase the fire risk and are going out of practice. But one neat and convenient and safe in con— struction, attractive in architecture and when built, beyond all els‘ie, thoroughly well and efficiently kept. As at present advised, we can think Of no spot so eligible and in all ways suitable, as the Bishop lot 011 the northeast corner of Mott Place and Belden Avenue. We have been told, but do not know it as air absolute fact, that the present owner, Mr. Frank Bishop, stands ready in the matter of, its sale, to carry out the proposition made by his father in his lifetime, which was $15,000 for the lot; $10,000 in stock for the New Hotel CO. and $5,000 in cash. While the total sum for the lot may and probably does seem too large to many conservative judges Of the value of real estate, we are sure that for the purposes of such a hotelas our borough so pressingly needs and in the manner of payments proposed, the conditions of sale are by no means unreasonable. The need of a new hotel, not in any sense “palatial,” as that term is modernly understood as ap- plied to a public house, but complete in every essential cmnfort and modern con.- venience and appointment, we take to be conceded by every public spirited citizen. It should be strictly a hotel and a home, for transient and permanent guests, and not a haberdasher’s shop for tradespeople. Com—- plete in all modern appointments, of con» struction, finish and furnishing, it should be architecturally beautiful and a credit to. our town and an institution in which every good citizen should feel a personal interest and pride. It should also be in every way Constructed and adapted to an all-the-year- round residence resort commensurate with our local needs and the reasonable prospect of attracting large numbers of visitors to town. We believe such a. hotel will prove a profitable investment. ——-————<+ Our Contemporaries. , An excellent picture Of Frank Wood, and a. poor picture of Pat Wade, both of the Standard, appeared in the Sunday Herald in an article devoted to the 17th regiment, volunteers. , The Hartford Times appears this week “dressed in its new suit of clothes.” It is not nearly so proud as it is pretty.
