to Meet in Worcester, Oct. I6.
BOSTON. Sent ~

BosTON, Sept. "a
As result of the split among the leaders
of the greenback party in this State, Hon Z.
Moody BOynton, member of the national
committee of the greenback labor party for
Massachusetts, issues a call for those who
believe in the greenback and anti monopoly
principles, enunciated in the platform of the
national greenback labor party to meet in
convention at Worcester, Oct. Is, to nomi.
nate State ticket. 1t sets forth that the
call issued in the name of the party for the
convention in Boston tomorrow Ia based
wholly upon the same conditions and basis
of representation as those upon which the
democratic convention is called for the fol-
lowing day at Springfield: that if they ac-
quiesed it must insure a complete surrender
and merging of the greenback with the DEM
ocratic party. Therefore the protest is en-
tered against said call and the convention as
being without precedent in the history of
the national greenback labor party and as
ratification of Gen. Buffers statement that
the mission of the greenbackers has been ac-
complished.

One hundred convicts in the Connect
cut State Prison at Wethersfield were
poisoned Friday night in some mysterious
way, and for time the officials feared that
the Jail was about to be converted into a
well-filled morgue. 1t was about three
O'Clock in the afternoon when a prisoner
engaged in shoe shop No. 5 complained
to the overseer that he was sick at his
stomach and would like to be relieved
from his work. Wethersiield prisoners
are always direly afflicted when they wan,
holiday. and the overseer. thinking that
the man was shamming. ordered him back
to his work. Subsequently he complained
again. and this time there was no mis-
taking the truth OF his statements. His
face was pale. his teeth chartered.
and big beads of Precipitation chas-
ed each other down his face. The
overseer ordered him to go to his cell.
He had not walked dozen steps along
the corridor when he sank to the floor and
began to vomit violently. He complained
of severe cramps in the stomach. and later
on was affected with dizziness and purg-
ing. Before he had been in his cell five
minutes another prisoner was attacked in
the same way. and then another and anoth-
er. until at the end of half an hour 16 men
were on the sick list, and the number was
increasing with frightful rapidity. The
Jail officials became alarmed. No one
Sargent was sent for, and he in turn de-
spatched messenger for DR.. Warner, the
prison physician. Fifty men were sick
when the doctor arrived. He found un.
mistakable evidence that the men had
been poisoned. The complaints continued
to pour in. At 5 O'Clock o. men were
under treatment and at 10 O'Clock the num-
Der had increased to 100. DIR. Warner
and the prison assistants worked until
1880 administering opiates and using raw
eggs to countersct the poison. Some of
the cases yielded readily to treatment, and
the men were relieved of pain and purg-
ing. but other cases were very obstinate.
and the men were unable to remain quiet
In their cells. wandering restlessly up and
down the corridors. The cause OF the
trouble was afterwards ascertained to be
due to some corned lamb which was
served q dinner. All Of the convicts re-
covered.
