POSTMASTER SPERRY'S REVENGE.
One Connecticut Legislator who will not A.
sist him In cetting IL.

HARTFORD Jan. 2. - Members of the
Legisll lture who have arrived here have dis
cussed somewhat a New Haven letter In THE
srN a few days ago. which represented that
Postmaster Sperry Of that city was seeking po-
litical legislation to revenge himself upon lnsur-
ance Commissioner Stedman. There was an
inference In that letter that the Hon.
Henry NJ. Cleveland of Brooklyn was a
party to the scheme. because II was
him for edman's place In justice to MIR.
Cleveland II ought to be said that he Is not
aware that any person in New Haven Is desirOus
OF making use of his name to forward any pro
jact indeed. he had no knowledge that there
was any movement there OF personal nature.
MIR. Cleveland is too well known to the people Of
the state to he suspected OF an intrigue Of the
sort IN question.
[rhe New Haven letter alluded TO did not ac-
cuse Mr.. Cl veland of having any knowledge OF
Postmaster Sperry's design. but plainly declared
that the real plot was concealed from hlm.-ED.
