’l‘lllv} MUDDLE AT HARTFORD. '
The following was wired the DAILY
GAZETTE yesterday, but too late to ap-
pear, and being so clear an account of
the vexed situation, we give it place
to‘—day, to the exclusion of much other
interesting local matter:
THE CONNECTICUT ELECTION.
HARTFORD, Feb. 13.—The republican
side of the legislature did its full duty
yesterday in regard to the election mud-
dle, but the Senate took to its heels
and ran away when the tug of war
came. After reading in the House the
report of the conference committee,
covering the various propositions sub-
mitted to-and rejected by the Senate
committee, Mr. Green discussed the re-
port at length, setting off each point
contained therein with a clearness that
left no doubt in the minds of the re-
publicans that the committee had fully
done its duty in preparing the same.
Following this discussion a jOint res-
olution was presented and passed by
republican votes, providing that all the
questions in dispute shall be submitted
to the supreme court, the request being
made concerning every question and
the pledge being made that every re-
publican will vote in accordance with
the advice given by the supreme court,
no matter what candidate or political
party is the gainer.
The resolution was opposed by every
democrat present in the house.
The resolution was immediately trans-
mitted to the senate, but that body
having received information that the
house had passed a joint resolution de-
claring Mr. Staub elected comptroller,
hastily adjourned, the object doubtless
being to escape taking any action what-
ever on the resolution which had been
ordered sent there under a suspension
of the rules. Upon the democratic
senate, therefore, rests the responsibil—
ity of continuing the dead lock.
A house resolution providing for the
appointment of a committee to appear
before the senate and ask that body to
meet in joint convention with the house
for the purpose of inaugurating Mr.
Staub, was presented.
After presenting the resolution, how-
ever, Mr. Judson said that he had
learned that the senate had adjourned
until Tuesday, an 1 therefore moved
that the resolution be laid on the table.
The motion prevailed.

Obituary.
Rev. W'm. H. and Mrs. Thomas have
been sorely and peculiarly afflicted
by reason of family bereavements, dur-
ing: the past year. Yesterday while at
Brooklyn attending the funeral of Mrs.
Thomas’ mother, a telegram from Nor-
waik was received, announcing the
death of their son Frank, at Five Mile
River, which had just occurred. VVIth-
in a year past. Mrs. Thomas has buried
father, :mother, a brother and a sis-
ter, and now, “a nearer one and a
dearer one yet. than all other,” a son,
in the prime of his early and noble
manhood, is stricken down, and tomor-
row, he too. is to be followed by those
sadlybereaved parents to the grave.
May He who tempereth the winds to
the "shorn lamb,” comfort and heal
the torn and bleeding hearts of these
stir-ken parents. ‘

3-. barn belonging to Oscar W. Ray-
mond of East Norwalk, was entirely
destroyed by fire, shortly after 8
o‘clock last night. The fire was first
discovered by Harry Rider, who gave
the alarm which was quickly responded
to by both fire companies. In the
meantime Mr. Raymond had rushed to
the barn hoping to save something but
was driven back by the, intense heat.
The fire started in the hay loft, and so
rapidly did it burn the exertions of the
firemen were without avail in saving
the barn, but they did save adjoining
buildings and the house near by which
were threatened by the flying sparks.
Mr. Raymond’s loss is about twenty
tons of hay, three valuable horses.
farming implements and mowing ma-
chines for which he was the agent. He
had $5700 insurance on the barn and
$300 on the horses, the latter insurance
having been placed only last Saturday.
He estimates his loss at something over
$2,000. The fire was of incendiary
origin. The stable door which, twenty
Illinutes previous to the fire was known
to have been closed, was found open.

Eirs. Dr. L. T. Day and Mrs. Adams
of Westport, drove over to Norwalk
yesterday, and made a call on Rev.
Hrs. \Villiams. on the green. Their
horse was hitched. and while the ladies
were in the house, somehow he man-
aged to rub his bridle 011', became
frightened and startedbriskly in the
direction of home. The animal was
found at Mr. Chester Hawley’s, on the
old \Vestport road, and in his flight had
freed himself from the carriage, almost
demolishing it, and broken the harness
badly. Mrs. Flavius Clark kindly
loaned the ladies a carriage and hat-
ness with which to make the journey
home.

The lady is a respect-

been considered of a sound mind,
though at present it is remembered
that for the past few weeks she has at

sacrifice. Much sympathy is expressed
for her, and friends are trying, and in

her mind of her religious hallucination.

Dr. Gregory’s wood-fire came near
giving them an unpleasant surprise
yesterday morning. Some ashes which
had been smouldering set fire to the
covering of the fender stool,.a conven-
ient resting place for tired feet, placed
directly in front of the fender and sur-
rounding it. Ward Gregory was read-
ing in the next room and thought he
smelled smoke, but didn’t trouble him-
self much about such a little matter,
till a frightened shriek from the house-
maid brought him to the scene of ac-
tion. Then, as he expressed it, “there
was a lively time for a few minutes.”
The heavy wooden stool was in flames,
the maid reduced to a state of chaos,
and the rest of the family being in
another part of the house, left nobody
on repeated pitchers of water, and fin-
ally extinguished the flames. Nothing
but this prompt action saved the house.
