An Exciting Time i'm Norwich.

Yesterday's Norwich Bulletin says: Dep uty Sheriff s. H. Dewey and Constable Henry R. Gardner, of this place, receiving informa- tion that the liquor saloon of James Welch was being kept open on Sunday. proceeded to Montville yesterday to investigate the mat ter. Not long after their arrival they saw indications that the place was open Officer Dewey and his associate approached the sa- loon and ordered the occupants to open the trance by force. As the door yielded he dis covered inside John Welch, brother to William the proprietor, and James Murphy, each of whom had two gallon jug partially concealed beneath his coat. They refused to give up the jugs and fierce encounter followed in which blows were heavily dealt, both officers being struck about tho head and face After being hit and kicked several times by Jack Welch, Sheriff Dewey con- cluded to rid himself of the rufian, and by B. we'll directed effort succeeded in throwing him out through the front window on to the piazza. He then turned to assist his associ- ate, who was still struggling with James Murphy, when he discovered Welch return ing as furious as an enraged bull. Finding that it needed something more than moral suasion to take the pugilistic spirit out of the fellow he brought his five-barreled "dissuad- er'' to bear upon Welch and ordered him to desist, saying he would let daylight through him if he persisted in further assaulting him. Welch admitted that revolver would look him out of countenance and stopped then and there. The officers brought away about eight quarts of whiskey, as well as brulse for every quart captured. Welch and Murphy will be held to answer.

Death of Joh M Ma nnix.

After an illness which confined him to the house for the last three months John Man nix died yesterday morning at his late home on Davenport avenue. The deceased was well known in this city, where he had been resident for over fifteen years past. In the Irish rising of 1867 he took an active part in the cause of the insurgents, for which price was set upon his head by the English government, but he eluded the efforts to
 capture him and escaped to America. Com
 ing to this city he established himself in bus
 mess, carrying on for many years up to the
 time of his fatal illness the business of 8
 mason builder. He was of quiet, unobtru-
 sive disposition, possessing tastes and quail
 ties which made him shine in domestic life
 rather than in pursuits of more public
 character. He had large circle of acquain- tances, however, who always held him in high esteem, and who will learn with regret of his death. He was in his forty fourth year. The funeral will take place tomorrow morning after solemn high mass of requiem at St. Johns church, of which he was long 8 faithful and honored member, and will un- doubtedly be largely attended.

 In the City Court yesterday morning the case against. Samuel Smith ,one of the pig iron robbers, was disposed of There were eight distinct charges of theft against him.

A Legal Opinion on Tnaurancs

A Legal Opinion on Insurance. In suit in Missouri, of Quedus vs the Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance cempa- ny, to recover the full amount of $5, ,OO0 for five certificates of the company issued on the l safety fund or the cooperative plan, on a
 motion for new trial, Judge Treat com.
 mented upon this plan of insurance as fol. lows
 | There are many strange provisions in the contract. It is made by corporation which it is contended has subdivided itself into de- partments for the conduct of distinct branches of business. On some of it it is directly and positively liable, and on others only centingently liable, and on others lia- ble, as in this case, only in such way as to
 become mere agent to collect from it's
 policy holders what assessments they may be
 liable to for losses occurring. Possibly such
 may be the true construction of it's differing
 contracts and it's corporate obligations but
 this court IS not prepared so to hold There
 must be some one answerable at law for the contracts it makes and judgment on such contracts must be against the corporation :;
 but why, if merely an agent In the ab. sence of any proof to the contrary the sum recoverable should be against the corporation for the maximum insured Any other rule would make this insurance scheme 8 mere delusion and snare.
 If the defendant company's theory as to the true construction of the contract when the corporation compels a suit obtain, then policy like the present is of little worth. True, if person. sut .jat?5s, chooses to make foolish contract. he must abide by it's term; but should not the contract be so construed as to make it's contemplated bene- fits available?
 Despite some decisions to the contrary, this court cannot hold otherwise than that when suit has to be brought the recovery should be for the maximum insured, unless the defendant shows by pleadings and proof that said sum should be reduced. Even then the strange result would follow that as to each outstanding certi6cate-holder and his responsibility controversy might arise. The further the inquiry is pursued the great CT the legal difficulties presented. The motion for new trial must be overruled.
