Arrested Last Night for CriminallN
 ASSauitinE Il Lady.

Last Night for Criminauy
 AssauitinG Lady.
 Charles C. Porter, better known as Doc" is again in the tolls, with long term of imprisonment staring him i'll the face.
 Yesterday afternoon Porter entered the apartment of Mrs Kiernan, young married woman living on North Elm street, and criminally. assaulted her. In the struggle the lady was thrown to the floor, but fought Porter with despera- tion. The rutfian was unable to accom- plish his purpose, but escaped before an alarm could be given. The police were notified and at once instituted search for Porter. He was found on Brook street headed for the policy shop by Officer Ahearn about : o'clock and plac- ed under arrest.
 Porter has notorious police record. He is only 20 years of age. with an inno- cent and boyish face and is small of stature. yet he has been before the court within the past five years for nearly every crime in the calendar. He has done time for highway robbery, theft assault, drunkenness and many times has escaped prosecution because people were afraid to testify against him.
 He was married some time ago to a young woman of Naugatuck.
 In court this morning Attorney Root appeared for Porter and secured a con tinuance of the case until tomorrow morning.

SWIFT IN SESPE\SE

Governor Bulkcley Netoes the Com
 mutation Bill but the Senate Re-
 fuses to Accept His Decision-Wa-
 terbury Matters in the House To-
 day.
 HARTFORD. April 5.-The joint com mittee on interpretations reported favor ably to the house this morning on the resolution incorporating Stephen J. Meaney No 7634 of the Ancient Order of Foresters of Waterbury. The house passed the resolution.
 Governor Bulkeley sent to the senate this morning his veto of the Swift reso- lution committing his sentence of death to imprisonment for life. Swift was to have been hung to-day at the county jail and all necessary preparations had been made to that effect. Yesterday a reprieve of two weeks was granted him and to-day the governor has given his reasons why the murderer should hang. They are in substance as follows: II have been unable to discover any new evidence presented since the trial or any mitigating circumstances to justify leg islative interference with the verdict of the jury and the sentence of the court pronounced in pursuance of said verdict | as provided by law, and 1 respectfully ubmit the resolution again for your consideration and final decision" Senator Hall asked that the matter be | reconsidered. Senators Coffin and Clark l asked that the resolution be laid on the table.
 Senator Coffin reviewed the whole case again, explained its brutality and reconciliation and summed up his argu- ment by saying that if ever a man ought to be hung that man was John H Swift.
 After long and spirited debate a vote was taken upon the matter and it was decided to pass the resolution com mmutins Swift's sentence over the governors veto
 by vote of 12 to s.
 l The resolution incorporating the S
 Cassimer society of Waterbury was alst | passed by the house today

none of the points of the debate, and was
ready at any moment to take advantage of
any opening that showed itself to make a
home thrust He was for adjournment first,
last and all the time.
The promise of the ColIectorshlp of the
Port OF Philadelphia has taken Mr.. Cooper
out OF the Governorship race, leaving no
formidable opponent of Senator Delamater
In the East. Senator Mylin, of Lancaster,
had been consideration some time as the
possible successor OF Lieutenant Governor
Davies, but it has recently been intimated
that he would be laid aside. This intimation
is In great measure confirmed by his vote
against adjournment. Senator Watres, of
Scranton, and Edward Martin, Esq, of
Lancaster, are among those most promi-
nently mentioned now. There is also re-
port that Lancaster county, whose politi-
clans felt rather sore because of the retire
ment of Thomas Cochran from the Chief
Clerkship of the Senate, may be Modified
by his reelection to the place, in case Rus
sell Errett should go back to the Pittsburg
Pension Agency. There is no sure thing,
though, about any such deal as this.

West, the most to the South, where
the advantages for profitable manu-
