IV ‘— - passed a very comfortable night. salon-saunas; ‘ ” : County Comriii—ssl—o—n—ers will Re move Agent HOlllleCKGl‘k Saloon~Keepers Make Damaging Statements. Prosecuting Liquor Agent Honnec- ker of South Norwalk has been con- ported that the Law and Order league. will make an effort to have him dis; barred for unprofessional conduct, says the Bridgeport Standard. The county commissioners are also up in arms against the liquor agent, and have decided to request his resignation With- ‘out delay. _ Attorney Honnecker was appointed liquor agent by the county commission- ers shortly after the Democrats se- cured control of the board. Attorney Toomey of Biid cport, is supposed to have charge 0 the entire county, but- Howard Taylor was place in charge of Danbury and Attorney Hon- necker was instructed to take charge of Norwalk and South Norwalk. Recently Agent Honnecker thought that Stamford saloon-keepers were on- joying too much of a good thing, and he concluded there would be some money for him in a raid upon the liquor dealers of that town. Mr’. Hon- necker said nothing to the county com- missioners of his purpose, but, takin a few “spotters,” he Visited Stamfor and soon had evidence against12 or 15 saloon-keepers there. - But if reports subsequently made to the county commissioners are true, Mr. Honnecker was more considerate _ of his own profits than he was of having the license 'laws observed. Of the number detected warrants were issued for the arrest of on] a half dozen. These were prosecute in the regular Way. There was quite a stir in Stam- ford at the time. but after the excite- ment had passed the county commis. sioners were informed that a number of saloon-keepers against whom evi- . deuce had been obtained had the com- plaints suppressed -by quietly paying 'the prosecuting agent to let the matter drop. The commissioners sent for one of the saloon keepers who was making this se- rious charge against the liquor agent, and asked him concerning it. The liq- uor dealer insisted that it was true. He said that he received a notice from the liquor agent, requesting him to call at his ofiice. He went there, and Mr.Hon- necker told him he had evidence that the saloon keeper had been selling after hours and on Sunday, and that unless the case was settled at once a warrant would be issued for his arrest. The sa- .loon keeper said Mr. Honnecker told him he would let the matter drop if the saloon keeper paid him $63. Realizmg that the affair would cost him much more than that amount if he were ar- rested, the saloon keeper said he paid the sum asked without any further ar- gument, and that was the last he heard . of the case. . The county treasury had only receiv- ed the fines imposed" upon those who had been arrested,and the commission- ers therefore decided to make an inves- tigation. If Mr. Honnecker intended to make money at this rapid rate the county commissioners wanted to know it. They accordingly sent for the South Norwalk liquor agent and told him of the charges which ad been made against him. , Mr. Honnecker appeared to be very * indignant and offered to resign at once. But the commissioners toldhim that was not the proper course to take if he were innocent. Serious charges had been preferred against him, and the commissioners had simply given him a . chance to explain the matter if he could, before they proceeded with their inves- tigation. Mr. Honnecker reiterate that the charges were unfounded, but that he would resign sooner than have any trouble. , The commissioners made a thorough investigation in Stamford,and after lis- tening to the testimony submitted by various saloon keepers of that town,de- cided to ask Mr. Honnecker to hand them his resivnation. This is all they intend to do in rela- tion to the matter. There were eight saloon keepers in Stamford who testi- fied that they each had'paid the liquor agent 3363 to suppress the complaints he said he had against them. It is now reported that the officers ef the state council of the Law and Order league in New Haven, have been in- formed of the trouble in which Maldon- necker is involved. and that they Wlll bring the matter before the Fairfield county bar, with a request that the liq- uor agent be prevented hereafter from practicing law in this county. Attorney Honnecker is reported nas being sick at his home on Wall street .to-day with a doctor in attendance and a statement from him has not been ob- tained regarding these very serious charges. It is hoped that they are un~ true and that Mr. Honnecker will be able at the right time to clear himself, but from the manner‘in which several cases here in town have been quietly settled we fear that there is trouble ahead for Mr. Honnecker. Again Afflicted. The many friends of Miss May Hig- gins, daughter of Dr. R. L. Higgins, will regret to learn that she is seriously sick at her home on West avenue. Some months ago she was operated up- on by a_ skilled New York physician for appendicitis. The operation was ap- parently successful and Miss Higgins continued togain in health, and was able to take drives with her father everyday. On. Tuesday last she was again taken ill, and Dr. W. W. Van Arsdale of New York, was summoned, her father having decided that the cause of her illness was the same as be- fore. It was concluded to perform another operation, which was done Wednesday morning. The patient ral' lied and to a GAZETTE reporter, Dr. Higgins this morning said that slide e was not inclined to speak encouragingly of her condition, but has strong hopes of her ultimate full recovery of health.

Bailey’s Funeral. -The funeral, of the latchames M." Bailey, the editor of the Danbury News, on Wednesday, was one of the largest ever held in that city. _ Nearly all the stores .were closed out of respect to his memory, and the mourning was universal throughout the city. He loved Danbury and Danbury loved and . respected him- His loss' to that city is an irreparable. one. He was buried with Masonic honors. The Danbury News was. not published yesterday. A large number of newspaper men were present from different parts of the states In life Mr. Bailey was a great lover of flowers, and the floral offerings were numerous and elegant.” Peace to his ashes. r— Him: I" ill I Do. Medical writers claim that the suc- cessful remedy for nasal catarrh must be non-irritating. easy of application, and one that will reach the remote sores and ulcerated surfaces. The his- tory of the. efforts to treat catarrh is proof positive that only one remedy has completely met these conditions, and that is Ely’s Cream Balm. This safe and pleasant remedy has mastered ca-- tarrh as nothing else has ever done, and both physicians and patients free- ly concede this fact. Our druggists keep it. Groceryman J. W.
