An INSURANCE Clerk'S UOOO COrtU00s
Hartford Comm Times, November Is.
1t isn't often that young clerk still in his
teens has $4,000 placed in his hands to do
with as he pleases and to use as his fancy
may dictate; yet this was a little event that
occurred last week to Roe Grant, q young
man who lives ON Vine street with his pa
rents and who is employed IN the Offices of
the Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance
Company IN this city. Young Grant held
one-twentieth of ticket 1886, which drew
the first capital prize of 100000 IN the
drawing of The Louisiana State Lottery
Company on the 18th Of October. The lucky
young man was questioned by a newspaper
man and he emphatically denied having,
won the $1,000. but expressed himself -
being willing to receive such a sum. Since
the interview the newspaper man has learned
that Grant did receive the money; that -
was paid to him by the manager of the
Adams Express Company in this city, and
tina, two supernumerary policemen guarded
the Eouse the night the money was kept
therein. All this was done without the
knowledge of Grants parents, but when
they, too, found out how fortunate the son
had been, immediate efforts were made to
suppress its publication.

the effect to do away with the ten years
statute of limitations of 1858, on the
judgment sued on. But the court held,
with the attorneys for the city, that
these newly discovered statutes had
nothing to do with the question, and
again gave judgment in favor of the
city and against Metcalf.

Burke Goes Through.

The great interest taken in the Gro
min murder case all over the country
was manifested here Monday when it
was learned that Martin Burke, the
suspect, would pass through en- route
to Chicago from Winnipeg on the 500
P. NJ. train. Before the arrival of the
train large number, not few ofthem
females, had assembled at the Junction
to get glimpse at the prisoner At
the station also, not few were on hand
to greet him, but as all discovered,
Burke was not on exhibition and was
we'll guarded. Burke was in the car at
the rear end of the train, and save him
self and the officers in charge of him,
eighteen in number, none others occu-
pied it. Three or four officers guarded
each door of the car, and the balance of
the detectives were inside of the coach
keeping close surveillance of the pris
oner. 1t was impossible to get good
sight of him, as the windows were all
closed and the blinds down at the side
he sat on. A few saw the suspect indis-
tinctly by peering through the win
dow, but no one had clear view of
him, and on the whole the journey to
the cars was but slightly rewarded.
Those who saw Burke describe him as
looking very ignorant. He has promi-
nent chin, large nose, and wore
straw hat and dark suit of somewhat
cheap appearance. AS the train moved
off many wondered if that car really
held one of the establishments in the
foul, hideous and brutal murder of DIR.
Cronin. A few minutes before 10 o'clock
Burke was landed safely in Chicago,
and found retreat la the Harrison street
station.
When Burke's train approached Port
age several companies of the First regi-
ment, W. N. g., were waiting at the
depot for the train to Camp Douglas,
and as the train pulled in the soldier
boys set up terrific yell, surrouDd ed
Burke's coach and tried to raise the
windows. One was actually raised, and
must have caused some CONSERVATION
inside, for several of the Pinkerton men
placed their hands on their revolvers,
and one of them yelled: sect back
