THE STATE OFFICES.
The Contest at Hartford Tne Situ
ationThe - Prohibition. Ballots
Press Comments.
Hartfohd, Jan. 9. As . the guberna
torial matter now stands, a committee of
the house, made up of lawyers and lay
men bright, honorable and able, will
make full investigation into the returns.
The committee meets Wednesday, January
14 at 10 a. m. at Hartford. The result of
their investigations will be made known
when the house meets January 20. If it
appears that Judge Morris has a majority
of the lawful ballots cast for governor he
will be declared elected and every republi
can in the house will vote in favor of such
declaration. If the contrary shall appear,
not republican will vote to seat him.
Unquestionably the excitement attending
the situation will continue and inorease as
the investigation proceeds. The commit
tee will sit at Hartford, and possibly at
BrideeDort. There will be no star cham
ber proceedings and no attempt to oonceal
anything. The republicans propose to
let the full noontide shine upon the re
turns.
There has been considerable difference
of opinion among republican leaders as to
what course should be pursued in regards
to tne candidates below governor.
Judge Lynde Harrison is unqualifiedly
in favor of declaims the democratic candi
dates for lieutenant governor, comptroller
and possibly treasurer elected, if the.
committee do not discover something radi
cally different from the present state of
the vote.
Other republican leaders are strenuous
that none of the democrats should be seat
ed unless a compromise is made on the
question of governor. It is understood
that the proposed plan of having the dem
ocrats take the oath of office yesterday and
make demand on the republican incum
bents for possession was given up on the
advice of Judge Morris.
The proceedings thus far indicate that
the democrats have not acted wisely in
their choice of a house leader. Mr.
Walker of Hartford is an able man, but he
is not as wll equipped for the position of
leader as is Mr. uotcnkiss of JNew Haven
Speaker Paige has already demonstrated
ability of a high order. No attempts at
bulldozing will have any effect upon him.
lie is tne presiding omcer of tne House ana
he has ability and sand enough to fill the
position.
GOVERNOR BULKILEY DENIES IT.
Governor Bulkeley says in denying a re
port concerning bis position:
You mav sav that it is without anv foundation.
Whenever the eeneral assembly declares anv
person governor and he duly qualifies, whether
to-day or at any time In the future, 1 shall at
once yieia to mm tne executive omce.
INVESTIGATING PROHIBITION VOTES.
That the special investigating commit
tee appointed by the house contemplates
inquiring mainly, if not wholly, into the
rejection of the "for" ballots voted by the
prohibitionists, is indicated by the three
petitions presented By representative
Tuttle (rep.) of JUast Haven, who was sub
sequently appointed on the committee. The
petitions were from waterbury, Stratford
and JNew isritam mat from tne latter
place being signed by H. N. Lockwood
and W. V. Andrews. Accompanying the
petitions were affidavits of various per
sons mat they nad voted tne pronibrnon
ticfcets.
The Hartford Post last night says:
Unless the senate recedes from its rash and
hasty steo. obviously General Merwin fwho very
likely is, or at least may be, entitled to hold the
office of governor) is deprived of all chance of
beine seated for the reDublicans will not adott
any more than they will allow any revolutionary
.course; and equally obviously Mr. Bulkley who
was not a candidate for the omce is obliged to
noia over ior tne tun term.
The senate must yield somewhat, or the re
sponsibility of a deadlock and all that it implies
wui lie wnouy wim liseu.
The Bridgeport Standard says:
If the democrats desire to assume the role of
obstructionists they' are welcome to do so, and to
ail tne capital wnicn is to do maae out oi sucn a
nosition. une reDuoncans win ao Dusiness aioni
the established and constitutional lines till sue
time as democratic obstruction prevents further
action, then they will "hold the fort" till the ob
struction is removed and the reign of law and or
der is resumed.
The Hon. Luzon B. Morris did not endorse the
democratic m-oeram to the extent of actual ac
tion, and so the endeavor to capture the gover
norship by a coup d'etat failed. Morgan G.
fiuiKeiey is governor ana wiu De untu tne legal
and constitutional requirements for appointing
ins successor nave Deen compuea witn.
Last night's Hartford Time's (dem.) says:
One thing is certain, the democrats know that
tneir candidates are constitutionally elected.
They will not give up that point nor abandon it.
A Dance In Cutler Hall.
A very pleasant dance was given in the
Cutler building last evening under the
auspices of Professor Meyers. There were

Burled In Ansonia.
The remains of the late Andrew TTsinger

a member, and who escorted the remains
to the Christ church, where the funeral
services were held.
DEATH
FROM STRANGULATION
A
Bean Lodges in Little Emma
Ketchale's Larynx and Causes
Death.
Little Emma Eetchale, aged two and a
half years, died suddenly yesterday fore
noon at the residence of her parents, 35
Myrtle street. About 9 o'clock yesterday
morning Mrs. Ketchale went to a grocery
store near by and hought some white
beans, leaving Emma in the house playing
with a child of one of the neighbors. Upon
her return she was met by her little
daughter who secured a handful of the
beans and continued her playing. Shortly
after sue was seized with a severe nt of
coughing and strangling but soon recov
ered. The child afterward eat some crack
ers and milk and went on with her playing
as before. Shortly before noon she was
taken with a second attack from the ef
fects of which she suddenly expired. Medi
cal Examiner White was summoned and
gleaned the above facts during his investi
gation. He also discovered what seemed
to him to be a bean lodged in the child's
larynx, which is snpposed to be the cause
of Emma's sudden death.
The Sheriffs' Dinner at Delmonico's,
Hon. N. D. Sperry much enjoyed the

WILL M ABE SOME CHANGES.
The treat Haven Railroad Company
Will Purchase Some New Oars For
the Sylvan Avenue Bpad Efforts
Ver . Ten Hlnnte Runs On That
-Road The People or That' Section
much Gratified. i: ; -
Much interest is felt- in thet southwest
section of the city over the present atti
tude of the West Haven. Horse railroad
company with its Sylvan avenue branch.
That the company is on the eve of making
some important changes is indicated
strongly by a sort of much current opinion
existing within the management. Another
event of interest is the recent resignation
of Superintendent W. W. Ward.' Mr.
Ward has very ably managed the road for
many years and toen strenuous in his
efforts for its prosperity. He is in favOr
of rapid transit and progressive in his
views of road management. It is under
stood the company will make every effort
to influence him to withdraw his resigna
tion. But it is considered doubtful if
they succeed, as Mr. Ward has other im
portant business interests which claim a
share ot ms attention ana time, it was
this reason that prompted him in his
resignation.
xsy early spring some or tne cnanges win
undoubtedly have been made. Electricity
will as soon as it is practicable.be used as a
motive power on the WestHaven road. This
power is recognized as tne most service
able on roads where there are long dis
tances with few stops to be made, and
this is just what is the characteristic of
the West Haven road with its long stretch
es through territory but sparsely settled.
With a rapid transit the ride down to
Savin Kock on a summer arternoon or
evening would not be the discouraging ef
fort it is at present.
Those living on and m me vicinity oi
the Sylvan avenne road will be much
pleased to learn that their road is to have
its share in the - way of inprovements,
Much was due to the energetic efforts of
Alderman Lowe and a few others that the
comnanv last summer reduced the sched
ule of running time from twenty to fifteen
minute trips. This without doubt is one
way to account for the very heavy vote
that Mr. lxwe cowed at tne last election in
a naturally democratic ward. This change
-i ... i xir A! Jl
Was received witn mucu Baiimauiiiun, aim
the residents up m the locality ot the cem
etery feel that they were not quite so
far away from the world at large.
Efforts are now being made' for a further
reduction to ten minutes schedule, and
this would, indeed, if successful, be most
gratifying to those who patronize the
road. Without doubt the venture would
be a paying one for the company. When
they made their reduction to the fifteen
minute runs their receipts were incre ased
fully a third,and by those who know about
the ease it is estimated that the fiu-tho. re
duction would meet with the same success.
The convenience which would be gained
goes without argument.
The people living along tne lone are ones
who liberally patronize a road, and they
will be most hearty m their support of ef
forts of this character. Alderman Lowe
said yesterkay that the changes were not
only talked of, Dut likely to occur.
The company will buy two or three new
cars and the one lonely conductor who
now performs the entire duty in that
department, taking his car up from the
green as far as the turnout on Howard ave
nue and returning on the car down, leav
ing the driver alone with the"other one up
to the cemetery and back, will have two
other conductors to keep him company.
With these additions the frequent trip;
can easily be made, and the travel over
the road warrants the attempt.
bamuel A. Stevens, a director and now
one of the largest stockholders in the com
pany, formerly a leading hat merchant on
Chapel street, has, it is reported, been in
New York this week on some matters of
business with reference to the contempla
ted changes.

A NEW OPERA HOUSE.
Manager Bunnell Secures Hawei1 1
Bridgeport.
Manager G. B. Bunnell of the Grand and
Hyperion completed negotiations yester
day for the management of Hawes' opera
house, Bridgeport, and will take control
immediately. This is on Fairfield avenue.
near the depot, and has suffered cansider-
able of late years because of poor manage
ment. Manager Bunnell will conduct it
in unison with his two theaters in this
city. He will begin at once, however, to
improve the theatrical situation, and will
take the managerial reins to-day. The
present firm will remain with him, how
ever, nn til April 1, after which time he
will have full control. His ability to suc
cessfully conduct an opera honse is well
known and the theater-goers of Bridgeport
can expect a list ot excellent entertain
ments.
Fire Alarm Telegraph.
For a number of months Superintend
ent Smith of the fire alarm telegraph has
been greatly perplexed with the antics of
the electrical apparatus which give out
unexpected blows on the city hall bell at
various intervals. James Grant, one of
the linemen of the department, it was
thought, had made the long undiscovered
secret of the trouble and for sometime it
did not occur. But "Jimmy" must dream
again and see if the trouble cannot be ob
viated. It is thought the trouble is caused
by a broken wire which is covered by
such strong insulating material as to not
reveal itself. This trouble is generally
round in a wire running into or near
fire alarm box where the wire is insulated
and it is a most difficult matter to locate
it, as the insulation is so strong that
tremendous pull on the wire would not
disclose the location of the break. . This is
one of the most trying difficulties which
electricians have to enoonnter and many
times it taxes months to locate me real
trouble.

THE G017NOD " SOCIETY.
Noted Artists who are to Assist at
It Coming; Concert First Rehearsal
Last Night.
The Gounod society at its production of
the "Bedemption," Friday, February 27
will have the assistance of the following
noted artists: Mrs. Jennie Patrick-Walk-
soprano of "Boston; Mr. Carl Dufft,
baritone, and Mr. Charles Herbert Clarke,
tenor.of New York; Mr. Myron, W. Whit
ney, bass, of Boston. In addition'to this
the society has secured the famous Qer-
mania orchestra of Boston. This an
nouncement should be enough ,to sell
every seat in the Hyperion. Mrs. Jennie
Patrick-Walker is without a peer in this
country as an oratorio soprano. She has
sung for the Handel and Haydn society
many times, was the leading soprano at
the great Worcester festival last fall, and
recently in New York set ail the critics
talking by her splendid work in the
'Messiah" at the Metropolitan opera
house. She is a great artist and of the
class of singers of whom Mr. Carl Buff t
and Mr. Charles Herbert UJarke are well
known in New York as artistio singers of
great merit, Mr. Dnfft's superb baritone
being in great demand. Mr. Clarke is the
tenor of the Broadway Tabernacle church
and is eminently fitted for oratorio work.
His voice is a pure, sweety tenor of lovely
Quality and finish. Of Mr. Myron W.
Whitney it is unnecessary to speak; his
name is a household word. He has lost
none of his fire and his great voice was
never heard to better advantage than at
the recent annual performance of the
"Messiah" by the Handel and Haydn soci
ety in Boston. At the close of his great
aria, "For the Trumpet Shall Sound," the
audience rose en masse and gave him a
tremendous ovation. The Gounod society
is to be congratulated upon having secured
this unusual array ot talent.
The hrst rehearsal of the chorus occurred
last evening. One hundred singers, com
prising the Gounod society and forty of
the leading church choir singers in the
city and vicinity, were present. The ranks
are nearly complete, but it is probable that
a few more voices will be added.
The Popular Concerts.
The public are requested to purchase
their admission tickets to the popular con
cert previous to the night of the perform
ance and avoid the rush at the ticket office
A few reserved seats are to be obtained at
Feck's and Steinert's.

SWEDISH LUTHERAN CHURCH EFFORTS.
B. F. Elmstedt reports progress in his
work as official agent for soliciting sub
scriptions for the Swedish church society
on Humphrey street. This society hopes
by the aid of generous friends to be able
to pay off its indebtedness, caused by its
purchase of the St. John street M. E.
church, which was made because the so
ciety needed greatly a larger church edifice
to accommodate its growing congregation,
The Swedish Lutherans themselves have
come forward and subscribed most liber
ally, according to their means, and the
fund to be thus raised, together with sub
scriptions from other sources will, it is
expected, float the indebtedness to such
an extent that a mortgage can be secured,
with which to comnlete oavment to the St.
John street church people. The latter so
ciety will probably begin the erection of
its chapel, corner of Orange and Edwards
streets, as soon as the frost is out of the
ground. .,. .

Entries Received hy the Secretary-
Prospects for the Exhibition.
The third exhibition of the New Haven
Poultry association will open at Music hall
on Church street next Thursday morning
and will close on Monday evening, January
19. Nearly every mail brings entries to
the secretary, Mr. E. A. Todd, who is al
ready very bnsy with the duties pertaining
to the office. -Nearly 1,000 premium lists
with entry blanks have been mailed to
poultry breeders, many of whom have
made entries on the blanks, which they
have forwarded to the secretary. As fast
as the entries arrive Mr. Todd mails to the
exhibitors an addressed shipping tag, a
ticket of admission to the show and cards
to be placed on the coop during the exhi
bition. . - f
The entries that have been received are
mostly from out of the city, as very few
of the local exhibitors make entries until
the last few days that they are to be ac
cepted. The entries close January 12.
There has been an extensive call for the
premium list, applications for them hav
ing been received from all parts of New
England and several of the western states.'
The secretary has predicted that the ex
hibition will be an unusually large one.

HE IS ILL BIGHT.
Republicans Will Support Major
Todd for the Public Works Board.
When Commissioners Todd and Atwater
of the board of publio works went into the
recent deal with the democratic commis
sioners, States and Reilly, to depose Super
intendent Kent of therstreet ' department
and to re-appoint ex-Superintendent Doyle
to this position, with George L. Ives as
assistant, there was considerable grumb
ling in the republican camp. Commission
er Todd had already been re-nominated by
the republican caucus for a re-election, but
several of the prominent party leaders had
declared that he had forfeited all claim to
the party's support by this transaction.- It
seems, however, that the republican politi
cians are beginning to look upon the course
of Commissioner Todd with more favor
and that he will receive the entire party
support when the aldermen meet on Mon
day night to elect commissioners for the
various boards. Alderman Dailey was one
most outspoken against Commissioner
Todd for a few days after this memorable
meeting of .the board of public works, but
it is evident that this alderman has also
decided to look more leniently upon the
course of Commissioner Todd. Sars Al
derman Dailey: "Considerable fault has
been found with Mr. Atwater and Mr.
Todd by their friends for going into the
deal with two democrats, and to this ac
tion objection, was made. Those gentle
men answer, however, that they simply
took advantage of an opportunity to go
into a deal whereby they could get a share
of the work for the colored men and
others, and combined with Mr. Reilly and
Mr. btates so as to get tor assistant super
intendent Mr. Ives of the Fourth ward. In
the agreement made was an understanding
that a portion of the department work on
the streets, parks, etc. , should be given to
republicans. This is their claim. That
being so, I think there will be no trouble
when it comes' to the election on Monday
night. 1 haven't any idea that any alder
men will Colt on that night."

The annual collection in aid of the New
Haven hospital will be taken up in the

At 10:30 last night the freight train on
the Northampton road known as the "Raw

of the cars was pretty badly smashed, but
beyond that no other damage was done.

in consequence ot the accident.

The above named specialist has indeed

world-wide reputation for his remarkable
success in the treatment of obscure and
chronic diseases, he bavins no superior or
even an approachable equal. Almost
every day he is in receipt of letters telling
mm ot tne men esteem witn which he

most snatched from the grave. And now
another is added to the long list of testi
monials given him by reputable and well
known citizens of this city. Mr. David

been" a great sufferer, for seven years, with
a senouB Jtiduey ana bladder trouble.
while tor tne last two years he was

times quantities ot blood would pass,
thus making him weak and debilitated.
Together with this he was troubled
with rheumatism and dumb ague and
symptoms of paralysis. He began treat
ment with Dr. Damon November 6. And
from the first he began to improve, until
now he says ne is quite well and hearty.
Mr. V an fctise is greatly pleased with his
rapid relief, and surely it is gratifying
when we think of the many years he has
been doctored by others without any re
lief. He now says he cannot say enough
in praise of the system that has brought
him good health. Mr. Van Hise is a plain,
matter-of-fact person, who says just what
