EDITORIAL LETTER.
WASHINGTON, D. 0., June 10, "90.
DEAR GAZETTE :—In so far as the major-
ity of the national House of Representa-
tives is concerned it cannot be denied that
it has faithfully fulfilled all the pledges
put forth bythc last National Republican
COiiventiOn in its elaborated platform.
The republicans of the House, thanks to
Speaker Reed, have formulated and passed
a tariff bill, a silver bill, a pension bill,
and are now busy on a federal election
law bill. On Saturday the House 'com-
niittee, having the latter law under cori—
sideration, had Election Inspector John I.
Davenport before them giving the com-
mittee his experience’in enforcing the
election laws in New York city, and the
prolific devices resorted to by “our friends
the enemy” in evading the same and
Sivelliug a fraudulent vote. Southern
democrats Openly vow that no such law
as proposed will be permitted to be en-
forced in the old slave states; that the
negro shall not vote, or, if he does, his
vote shall not be permitted to affect the
political status or interests of the whites,
and that all the armies Of the world can-
not compel its enforcement. They say
they will submit to being deprived of
their excess of representation in congress
and the electoral college, but to the free
ballot for the ignorant black man never.
It is expected they will resort to every
means known to parliamentary tactics to
defeat this bill when reported.
SiLini.
The Senate committee on finance has
amended the House Silver bill in that the
provision making the certificates issued in
payment of bullion legal tender for public
and private debts was struck out. leaving
them receivable for customs, taxes and
public dues. The bullion redemption
clause was stricken out, also the section
providing for the free coinage of silver
whenever the market price is one dollar
foa 371% grains of pure silver. This act is
made to take effect in thirty days after
passage and shall terminate at the expira—
tion of ten years therefrom.
PENSIONS.
The dependent pension bill as agreed
upon by the conferces and reported to the
House, after providing for the pensioning
of dependent parents, says that all per-
sons who served three months or more in
the military or naval service of the United
States during the war of the rebellion,
and who have been honorably discharged
therefrom, and who are now or who may
hereafter be suffering from a mental or
physical disability of a permanent charac—
ter not the result Of their own vicious
habits, which incapacitates them from the
performance of manual labor in such a
degree as to render them unable to earn a
' support, shall be placed upon the list of
invalid pensioners of the United States
and be entitled to receive a pension not to
exceed $12 per month and not less than
$6 per month, proportioned to their in—
ability to earn a support, such pension to
continue during the existence of such
disability. Rankin the service shall not
be considered in applications under this
act. ,
Provision is made for the pensioning at
the rate of $8 per month widows of men
who served ninety days without proving
death the result of army service, and like—
wise granting $2a month to each child
under sixteen years of age. Ten dollars is
fixed as a limit of the fee to be charged by
agents in preparing cases under this act.
Chairman Morrill, in explanation of the
report, stated that the conference com—
mittee had stricken out the dependent
feature of the Senate bill and the service
feature of the House bill. The measure
as determined upon was not exactly what
he Would desire, but it was the best he
could obtain. It would distribute $35,-
000,000 among the poor soldiers of the
nation.
GEN. ERANRLIN’S REPORII.
Toe secretary of state has sent to Con—
gress a copy of a letter of the commission—
er general of the Paris Exposition for the
United States, dated Hartford, June 2d,
forwarding his ofi‘icial report and data to
complete Volume 1. Gen. Franklin also
enclosed a memorandum, showing the
contents of four other volumes, which will
soon be ready for transmission to Congress.
NORWALK BOYS IN LUCK.
Edward Allen, who graduated with
high honors last week from the law de—
partment of the Georgetown University,
is a Norwalk boy and a former pupil at
Rev. C. M. Selleck’s Collegiate Institute.
He is a grandson Of the late Capt. William
Allen, of Norwalk, who for many years
was a shipping master in the Williams &
Guionline of ocean racers, and, during
the war, was commander of the gunboat
“Hussar” in southern waters. He was
also a nephew and son by adoption of the
late Col. Henry Allen, of the 17th Conn.
Vols. It is young Allen’s purpose to take
a post graduate course at the same
- , university, and then seek admission to the
Fairfield County bar. It was he who,
upon leaving the Selleck school, passed
the unpiecedented and phenomenal civil
service examination of 100, not having
made a single error.
. ANOTHER.
Last week Stewart W. Byington, of the
GAZETTE office force, was tendered the
deputy consulate position at Hull, England.
/ The patriotic young typo, however, de—
~lined the proffered honor with thanks,
saying he had rather stick type in the old
office at. nine dollars a week under the
folds of his own national starry flag than
live and serve in Victoria’s realms for five
times as much salary. SO Brooklyn and
Norwalk are the only two places up to
(late breaking the record in furnishing
candidates declining ofii‘ice.
GOING TO CAPE MAY.
Mrs. Harrison, Mrs. McKee, Mrs. Dim—
mick and babies of the White House, will
leave here to—morrow to take possession
of the Cape May cottage that was recently
presented to the President’s wife. They
will remainihei'e during the remainder of
the summer. The President expects to
follow them on Saturday and will make
them weekly visits throughout the season
until the adjournment, when he will take
up his permanent residence at Cape May.
SENATE SEIIGEAND-AT—AIIMS.
At the Senatorial caucus, held last
Tuesday night, ex-Congressman Valentine
of Nebraska was nominated on the second
ballot. There were eight candidates pre—
sented, but only three, Messrs. Valentine,
Bailey, Of Pennsylvania, and Col. Swords,
of Iowa, had been considered as the
ones coming within the probabilities Of a
nomination. To the surprise of all on the
first ballot Senator Quay’s candidate, (ex—
Stiite Treasurer of Pennsylvania Bailey),
led the race, Mr. Valentine being second
and Connecticut’s candidate third. Col.
Swords, sergeant—at-arnis of the last
Republican National Convention, coi-il‘i—
dently expected to win the prize. He was
supported by the active help of large
numbers of the National lepublican
Committee, and including our ever genial
and generous friend, Sam. Fessenden,
but on both ballots he was “nowhere.”
Deputy Sergeant—at—Arms cf the Senate
Reed, of Maine, was also very hopeful,
having his hat full, of senatorial pledges
to vote for him, but he “lagged super—
fiuous” next behind Connecticut, which
expected nothing and so was not dis—
appointed. The same fatality overtook
the candidates from Delaware, Minnesota,
Illinois and Montana. The unexpected
lead of Senator Quay’s candidate on the
first baltot instantly stepped all nonsense
in the way of voting for “compliment,”
and the caucus was at once stampcdcd
for Valentine, who held from the first the
winning cards in the powerful “combine”
Of the invincible west. Connecticut
sensibly and gracefully led the Victorious
procession for Valentine on the second
vote.
Hon. E. F. Valentine, the successful
candidate, is a lawyer; of West Point,
Neb., about fifty years or age. He served
three termsin Congress from that state,
retiring in 1885, since which time he has
been engaged in the practice Of his pro—
fession. He is reputed to be a capable,
affable, thoroughly honest man and gentle-
man, qualities whichghave bee'n heretofore
very conspicuously lacking in the respon-
sible Office to which hehlias been chosen.
Senator Quay made a spirited and, it is
charged, even ill tempered fight for his
candidate, and was greatly chagrined at
his defeat, while all others bowed to the
will of the majority with cheerful grace.
To Senator Spooner, of Wisconsin, more
than to any one else and all else is the
Senate and country indebted for making
the greatly desired and much needed
change in this office possible and relieving
the Senate and the nation from at least a
widely imputed stigma of scandal and
dishonor.
PERSONALS.
Messrs. Rockwell, Lenders and Leeds
are here vigilantly watching the tremend-
ous issues of the new tariff bill.
As Senator Hawley has been absent at
West Point and elsewhere during all the
time the Senate finance committee has
been wrestling with the McKinley bill,
Senator Plait has been well nigh over-
whelmed in looking after Connecticut’s
manifold interests therein. But he has
been equal to the emergency, and most
faithfully has he responded to every
demand, and most successfully, too, has
he been able to serve his constituents. It
is afact, frequently mentioned, that the
older and more mature Senator Plait
grows the more marked is his resemblance
to our lamented Senator O. S. Ferry.
Senatar P. is'also frequently spoken of
here as “the ‘Abe’ Lincoln of the Senate.”
E. F. Lewis and wife, of Waterbury,
are here.
William E. Horton, of Connecticut, has
been promoted from a $1,200 to a $1,400
clerkship in the pension Office.
Senator Hawley has returned after his
two weeks’ absence.
Mrs. Senator Platt has not recovered
from her illness as rapidly as was hoped.
Senator Frye expects to report his river
and harbor bill this week.
Captain Clarence M. Clarke, 3. well
known civil engineer of this city, com-
mitted suicide yesterday by shooting him-
self through the heart while suffering from
a temporary aberration of the mind caused
bya sunstroke. He was a son of S. C.
Clarke, Esq., a former resident of New
Haven. When only seventeen he enlisted
in the Fifteenth Connecticut, and was
soon promoted for bravery to the captaincy
of Company D, Twenty-ninth Connecticut,
in which position he served throughout
the war. At its close he was engaged in
the preparation of all the national ceme-
teries, and this work brought him prom—
inently before the country. He was a
graduate of Yale Of the class of ’69. He
married a daughter of tax—Representative
Hazeltine, of Missouri, and had one child.
The republican members of the finance
committee expect to have the tariff bill
ready to report by the end of the week.
Mr. Allisonjaddressed the Senate to—day
on the silver bill. .
The deficiency appropriation for pen—
sions and the census was reported and
passed.
Ice was put up here to-day to one cent
a pound to small dealers by all the Maine
ice companies owing to the increased cOst
of freight.
There are but comparatively few returns
of the census enumerators yet received at
the census office. As ever. ll.
The New Hotel.
. The New Hotel project has assumed a
tangible shape and nothing now remains
but for our citizens to come forward and
manifest their disposition to encourage it
by contributing to the fund and taking
stock in the enterprise. The need of a
first-class hotel is universally conceded,
and the prospect of its consummation was
never so encouraging as now, when it_has
become practically an established fact.
Every man approached thus far has sub-
scribed most liberally to the stock, thus
giving a substantial evidence of the deep
and earnest interest that is felt in tlieipro-
jcct and the conviction that pervades the
community, that the new hotel is a neces-
sity. Viewed in any light, either as a
public Spirited enterprise, or as a perman-
ent investment, or as a speculation, the
scheme presents none but commendable
features.
The subscription papers to the stock are
now open. Our people should not wait to
be called upon and urged to assist in what
a spirit of patriotism, if not of self interest,
should prompt them to take hold of vol-
untarily. The following gentlemen have
the papers in charge: Messrs. George E.
Miller, Ira Cole, 0. E. Wilson and E. O.
Keeler. I
A prominent business man, who is in-
terested in the successful carrying out of
the hotel project, makes this suggestion:
“Our citizens should send in their names
and the amount of stock they are willing
to take, to either of these gentlemen, and
every man in town should respond accord-
ing to his means. If you do not'care to
take stock, send in a donation of $100,
$50, $25, $10, or even $5, and thus Show
your interest in this important matter.”

It is said that J. J. Hampson, the cham-
pion heel and toe walker Of this state, has
removed from South Norwalk and per-
manently taken up his residence in Dan-
bury. ______
One of the census cnumerators in this
city encountered a very cool reception in
one place where the lady of the house took
him for a “measly photographer" and in
another where the paterfamilias, under
the delusion that he was a lightning rod
man or book agent. set the family dog to
work on the enumeratorial trousers.—

A movement is ou foot in Bridgeport to
have a grand regatta there some time next
month. The chief piishers in the scheme
are Commodore Hobbs of Bridgeport, and
Commodore Burritt of South Norwalk.
Both of these gentlemen have subscribed
liberally for the purpose and are now try-
ing to raise $300 more. They have been
soliciting subscriptions from merchants
and others, and are meeting with considgn
able success. It is proposed to have many
of the yachts along the sound take part
and if the necessary amount of money is
raised the regatta will be one of the finest
ever held on the sound. i
Big strawberry trains are now running
over the Consolidated road to Boston.
The berries are raised in Virginia and
Maryland, and are sent over the Pennsyl-
vania and connecting to Jersey City,
thence transferred by boat to Harlem
river. The sizes of the crates vary with
capacity of thirty-two, fifty and sixty—four
quart boxes respectively. The cars will
carry all the way from 500 to 700 crates.
0n the average it is calculated that a car
will carry 600 crates of 60 quarts each, or
30,000 quarts of berries to the. car. Each
train is made up light, and allowing 10
cars to a train, each of these “extras”
carry on an average 300,000 quarts of
berries. '
Jacob Schcele, the condemned murderer
of Louis Drucker, now in jail under sen-'
tence of death for the second time, has as
yet made no attempt to carry out his
threat of suicide made in court before
receiving sentence. He cats and sleeps
well and displays no signs of harrowing
mental anxiety. The jail officials, recall
ing his despair and desperation and his
attempt to kill himself as the first date set
for hanging drew near, can only account
for his present tranquility on the theory
that be yet retains faith in the power of
his counsel to savehim a second time. A
close watch is kept upon him notwith-
standing his resignation and apparent
cheerfulness. and when the time for his
execution approaches this vigilance: will
be materially increased. ' '
This is how the lottery mat in Danbury
and Bethel is described :—— , ‘
The baneful influence which the winning
of one lottery prize may have upon the
community in which it was won is well
illustrated at Danbury. There are 5,000
operators employed in the hat factories at
Danbury and Bethe], which are connected
by horse cars, and recently one woman
who was at the head of one of the hat de-
partments, received a‘ sum of money from
a lottery. This set the others on the
scent, and it is saidthat thousands of do]-
lars have been squandered in this spdc'ula.
tion. Families are pinched to save money
for it, work is neglected through the
nervous excitement of it and business
among the shop-keepers is injured. The
craze is not confined to the hatters, but
has spread through other classes. A
prominent business man estimates that the
money squandered ‘ the past four years
would double the losses by fire in the same
time ; and Danbury has had a heavier loss
by fire during this period than any other
city in the state in prop‘értion to its size.

The Business Men’s Excursion.
The business men of Pittsfield, Derby,
New Haven and Danbury turned out
about 500 strong on Saturday, in response
to Col. Stevenson‘s Offer to ride them to
New York fOr an inspection of the Housa-
tonic railroad’s system and facilities for
handling freight, their admirable arrange-
ments for transferring cars, their extensive
piers at Wilson Point and New York, and
the expedition with which the heavy and
increasing through freight business is
handled in transit over the road and on
the boats of the New England Terminal
Company. The excursion trains arrived
at Wilson Point at about 12 o’clock ; the
excursionists boarded the steamer Cape
Charles and shortly after 12 they were
out on the heaving billows steaming
toward New York. It was a jolly crowd
as well as a dignified and intellectual out-
pouring of solid business men, and not
one of the party found the time heavy or
the trip tedious. Col. Stevenson was
here, there and everywhere, greeting
acquaintances, cracking jokes and making
everybody feel at home; a bOuntiful and
appetizing collation was spread down
stairs by Caterer Fred. Mead, of Norwalk,
which was attacked by the hungry bus-
iness men with a vigor and vim that
meant business and brooked no tomfool-
ery. In one Of the state rooms an abund-
ance of ginger pOp, soda water and other
cordials had been provided, but the man
in charge got lonesome before reaching
New York, and corde up and went out
on deck in order to be where folks were.
After all had partaken of refreshments,
Col. L. L. Morgan, of the New Haven
Register, called the crowd together in the
grand saloon, mounted a chair and re-
marked that it was due to Co]. Stevenson,
as an act of recognition of his kind and
courteous invitation to participate in this
excursion, that the guests should allow
him to make a speech. The guests were
agreeable, and Col. Stevenson was escort-
ed to the chair and greeted with three
deafening cheers which were reaponded to
by a fog horn on Long Island. __Thc
Colonel spoke for about ten minutes and
was very complimentary to the House-
tonic railroad, with which, apparently, he
is on friendly terms. His speech was
copiously punctuated by the listeners with
[great applause,] and at the close he
called up Alderman Bushnell, of New
Haven, whom he introduced as New
Haven’s next mayor. Bushnell, being
very high between joints, didn’t need the
chair to stand on, but with his capacious
feet on the floor, he towered above the
multitude like a forest oak above a goose-
berry bush. He made a funny speech,
taking for his text the grocery business of
New Haven, in which he is engaged.
According to Bushnell’s tell, New Haven
is quite a town and her groceries are all
wool and a yard wide. Mr. Miller, of
Shelton, and E. E. Durand, of Ansonia,
boomed their districts with patriotic elo-
quence and left in the minds of the
hearers the conviction that Shelton and
Ansonia deServe to be put on the map of
Connecticut in red ink. ‘Mayor HOp-
kins, of Danbury, waved the ban-
ner of Beantown aloft and said he
always did like Colonel Stevenson.
Col. Weller, of Pittsfield, the heavy weight
of Berkshire county, said he didn’t come
to make a speech; he came along as
ballast—and it must be admitted that the
boat did ride smoothly with Weller on
board. Lawyer Hibbard, of Pittsfield,
caught the home, sweet home infection,
and made out that Pittsfield was just as
good a man as anybody in Connecticut.
All the speakers complimented Col. Stev—
enson on his successful administration of
the affairs of the railroad, and said enough
lovely things about him to make up a first
class obituary. The steamer arrived in
New York at about 3 o’clock, and the
guests spent about an hour in inspecting
the company’s piers, which Col. Stevenson
promises shall be perfected to a degree
that will make them equal to the famous
piers of the Central at St. John’s Park.
The return trip was as enjoyable as the
ddwnward one; everybody was in good
spirits, well pleased with the day’s out—
ing and satisfied that the Housatonic
company’s freighting facilities are all that
could be asked for. It is understood that
the Norwalk and South Norwalk business
men are soon to be given an excursion
over the same route. ' When they do, let’s
all go.
