They decided to employ no counsel.but to allow Warden Chamber- lain alawyer .who may advise him. He shall not question witnesses or make an argument. The first witness was Dep- uty Keeper Martin, who'm Chamberlain dismissed. It has been asserted thathe was bounced because he furnished in- formation to the newspapers. . Martin told how he was . appomted watchman by Chamberlain in August, 1887, and suncessively promoted. He knew no cause for his recent suspen- sion, although the warden gave as a rea- son conduct prejudicial to discipline. he related the case of one James Smith, a convict. The man was nearly an im- becile and physically incapable of work- ing. Chamberlain insisted on his work- ing, and because he objected kept him in a dungeon from J une until October, his condition meanwhile being indes- cribable filthy. He was taken to the hospital in October and died four days later , The House authorized the expediture by Comptroller Staub of $3,000 to de- fray the expense of the investigation. -' The bill permitting mayors of cities and wardens of boroughs to issue licen- ses for Sunday sacred concerts was un- favorably reported by the Judiciary committee. The committee did not think the time had arrived when the people were willing to sanction the pro- posed. change in the present Sunday laws. Under the pretense of permit- ting only sacred concerts the measure would open the doors for wholesale desecration of the Sabbath. Callahan spoke in favor of the bill. He said that persons now could almost do anything legally on Sunday, even to seeing prize fights, except atten concerts. Lees and Saxe also favored the bill, which was tabled. It ‘will probably come up again, amended by the exclusion of the word sacred. Resolutions were passed incorpora- ting the W. F. Swords Lumber com- pany, Long Hill Cemetery association, Y. M. C. A. of New Milford, and Lime Rock Water company. The act re- garding trespass by domestic fowls was passed. It provides that if notice to the owners by the parties trespassed upon, iven every six months, is not followe by an abatement of the nui- sance the trespassing fowls may law- fully 0 killed. On the unfavorable report of .the J ud- iciary committee the bill givmg con- servators power to settle claims was re- jected. Wood said the committee_re- garded the present law, which requires the submission of these claims to arbi- trators, an improvement to the one proposed. In concurrence there was rejected the bill imposing a fine of $10 and costs and a jail sentence of 30 days, or both, for Sunday fishing. The bill from the Bridgeport board of Trade providing for the creation of a local sewer commission, and enlarging the power of the board of Public Works also suffered rejection. Adverse action was taken on the peti- tion of George H. Blizzard, of Dan- bury, for a divorce from his wife Caro- line. They were married in 1843, and the ground for the application was_in- sanity. A like fate met the bill givmo the successor of a deceased town cler power to use his predecessor’s name in attesting such unrecorded deeds as he finds awaiting him on his accession to office. The committee on transporta- tion reported favorably the bill amend- ing the charter of the Stamford Trust company. The bill incorporating the Sons of Hermann order was passed“. _ The Senate rejected the bills prowd- ing a penalty for the publication by newspapers of “fake” news ; giving women the right-to vote on the liquor license question at elections, and the annual report of the Bridgeport Horse Railroad company. The latter was re- jected because deemed not sufficiently complete in details. WEDNESDAY. ' The special order in the Senate was the electric railway bill. Several amendments were offered, the princi- pal ones being to eliminate the clauses prohibiting the paralleling by these lines of steam railroads and the carry. ing of freight except at night. Pierce strongly favored adoption of the bill as reported by the committee. The whole matter went over to next Wed- nesday with an order that all amend- ments be printed. The House appointed David D. Soule, dem.. of New Milford ; George C. Ly- man, dem,, of Washington, and Jo- seph K- Judson, rep., of Thomaston, commissioners for Litchfield county. Incidental to their appointment oc- curred a lengthy debate over the bill providing for minority representation on county boards. Rocks, of New Britian, named an amendment, pro- viding for the election of commission- ers .by popular vote. Crofut of Kill- ingly, rep., supported the amendment and Judd, of Stratf'ord, spoke elo- quently in its favor. The amendment ona yea and nay vote was rejected, 105 to 104. Several Republicans voted with the Democrats. The bill provid- ing for minority representation was then passed. The Temperance committee reported favorably the bill permitting saloons to open one hour after the closing of the polls election days, and also making uneligiblefor being granted a saloon .license all persons not native born or naturalized. . The committee on Education re- ported favorably a bill requiring al town and school districts having 10,- 000 inhabitants to maintain evening schools, and making optional with se- lectmen, or boards of education the periods for which such schools shall be conducted. These schools shall be for the benefit of persons 14 years and up- wards. " A favorable report was made by the Judiciary committee on the bill limit- ing to exemption from factorizing pro- cess wages to the amount of not more than $10. The appropriations commit- tee reported in favor of. increasing the salary of the Governor’s chief clerk to $1,800 from $1,400. . 7 The bill increasing the number of state referees havmg Judicial powers from one to three was passed. This measure opens places for Granger,Ca‘r- penter and Loomis, three retiring judges of the Superior court. The'state bench desires their appointment for the purpose of relievin the crowded con- dition of the court ockets. - ‘ In a corridor .of the Capitol ex-Re resentatiye Green, of Norwich, was seized.w1th.a fainting fit and fell to the floor on his face.

Cowles of Norwalk to transfer a trust under the will of Louisa Durand ; incorporating the Winsted Old Burying Ground association; in- corporating the Watertown Savings bank and the Hartford board of Trade. In the Senate, the committee on Put- nam Memorial camp reported a substi- tute bill prohibiting hunting and fish- ing on the camp-ground at Redding. The judiciary committee reported favorably on bills amending the law concerning appeals from judgments, and relating to writs of habeas corpus. The committee reported adversely on bills to establish a State commission on lunacy, and dividing the wards in Waterbury into voting districts. The bills were rejected. The commtttee on Finance reported adversely on bills relating to transfer of real estate, relating to the taxation of savings banks. and defining the duties of the board of Equalization. The bills were rejected. The committee on Banks reported favorably on a resolution authorizing savings banks to compensate their pres- idents for extraordinary services. The committee on Finance reported adversely on directing an investigation of the market value of shares of the capital stock of the New York, New Haven & Hartford, the New Haven 8; Derby and the New Haven & North- ampton roads. The resolution was re'ficted. _ ~ esolutions were passed incorporat- ing the Bridgeport Scientific society, and the Wooster Insurance company of Danbury.
