highest, l0l, the lowest and closing lOO14. The
CHARTERS well was the principal bearish feature.
though the persistent selling from day to day
by New York was the cause of some uneasiness,
as the market is in no condition to withstand
such assaults. Oil City, as usual, bought,

Proposition to Require All EnGi-

Proposition to Require All Engi-
 neers to be Licensed.
 Owing to limited notice there was only light attendance at the meeting of the Safety of Buildings" committee of the legislature Tuesday afternoon tC consider bill requiring that all engi- neers in charge of boilers in hotels, etc, shall be licensed men. The committee heard those who were present, and ac- cepted a suggestion for a further hear ing on Tuesday afternoon, 18th inst. State Inspector Drummond testified that state boiler inspectors are not employed by the steam boiler inspection compa. nies, as stated at previous hearing. Chief Engineer Crane, of the Benedict & Burnham Manufacturing Go of this city, argued that engineers should be licensed. In a general discussion which followed, the prevalent opinion appear ed to be that when an engineer simply cares for an engine it is not necessary that he should be licensed, but that a license should be required for every man in charge of boilers, whether engineer or fireman. An instance of ignorance was told of man who took charge of a boiler and was told not to go above seventy-tive pounds of steam. He point ed to the steam gauge which registered up to 1S0 pounds and remarked .'The clock says 1SO, and guess the man that made it knew what this boiler would stand"

A correspondent of La Science en Famille states that in the Protestant church at Libau, Russia, there is an or gan which occupies the whole width of the church, about 60 feet, and which has 131 registers. 5000 pipes and l4 bel lows of large size It has harpsichords and pedal The largest pipe is formed of blanks 3 inches thick and 31 feet in length, and has section of square inches, and weighs 1,540 pounds. Be- sides the l3l registers, there are 21 accessory stops that permit of combining various parts of the in strument without having direct re course to the registers.

 Sewers were recommended for Frank lin, Pemberton, Bridge streets and the Waterville road. The board adjourned for one week.
 In the road board 1t was voted that the property owners on Ridge street near the head of Martin street be given until June 1 to lay the 80 feet of sidewalk ordered some three years ago. It was also voted that Martin street and the old WaterviIle road be placed in order for the construction of the new sidewalks. The board also recommended sidewalks for the south side of Pine street and instructed the city clerk to notify the Meriden railroad to make the certain requirements at the Baldwin street bridge.

HANGING BY A THREAD.

The House Refuses to Recall It's Vote
 on the swift Matter and the Govern OTIS Signature Will Probably be Ap- pended to the Resolution.
 HARTFORD, April 4.-In the house this morning MT O'Neill moved to take from the table the bill concerning the sale of intoxicating liquors by clubs. The bill l reads as follows When any town has voted or shall hereafter vote against granting licenses for the sale of spiritu- ous and intoxicating liquors all buildings, apartments or other places used or occupied by associations, societies or clubs where spirituous and intoxicating liquors are sold to members or to other persons shall be deemed common nui- Aances.
 Whoever keeps or maintains, or assists in keeping or maintaining a common nuisance as defined by this act, shall upon conviction thereof be fined not more than fifty dollars. ..--. -t- Justices of the peace shall have juris- diction of complaints for violation of l this act.
 He thought that the clubs had a bad influence on the youths of the country, and hoped the bill would pass. Wolf of New Haven didn't believe that the legislature would deem it's wish in its jurisdiction to say to clubs that | conducted themselves propprly and peaceably thatt hey shouldn't deal out to their members liquors. The liquors are not sold nor given to outsiders in such cases.
 | Mir O'Nelll again obtained the floor. He would not want to go on record as saying that no man should be allowed to drink moderately if he wanted to. He was teetotaler himself. The members I nf ollrb vol fh.,y. pay an initiation fee of from $50 to S10O by their liquors and virtually sell them to themselves. He believed the clubs should pay a license just the same as any liquor seller and offered an amend ment to that effect. The previous ques, tion was called for and then Mir O'Neill called for the yeas and nays on the amendment which resulted in vote re- jecting it. A vote was then taken on the main question and the bill passed. | The question on everybody's lips to- day is, will the governor veto the Swift resolution. It is pretty we'll understood that the governors object in not acting on the matter has been to give the gen eral assembly an opportunity to swing the matter one way or the other and take the responsibility from his shoulders. Ii is also confidently stated by those who are in a position to know what they are talking about, that he will sign the pc tition this afternoon. | The gallows have been erected at the Jail and were tested this morning with a bag of sand and found to work satisfac- torily. Sheriff Spaulding states that all necessary arrangements are now com pleted for the carrying out the sentence of the court in hanging murderer John H. Swift on Friday.
 A resolution was introduced in the house instructing the clerk to recall from the office of the governor the reso lution committing the Swift sentence The resolution was lost by a vote of 104 to S3.

8 BEEF ON THE HO0F.
.sRod,' Atwood's Arguments In Behaif
 of the Farmers.


 of the Farmers.
 Roderick Atwood of Woodbury and Waterbury was the only advocate be- fore the judiciary committee yesterday of the bill requiring inspection of beef cattle on the hoof, but it came out on cross-examination by Lawyers Gross of Hartford and Webb of New Haven that he wished it passed in the interest of farmers who have cattle to sell. Mir At wood resented the charge made that the bill was introduced in the interest of the ranchmen. It originated, he said, among the farmers of Woodbury.
 Representative Darlington of Nauga- tuck, who thought he was a better butcher than representative, appeared against the bill and also, he thought, against his pocketbook, but i'll the inter- est of his constituents, who, il the bill should pass, would be compelled to pay two cents pound more for beef. Mir Darlington gave the reasons why cattle could be slaughtered cheaper in Chicago than here. The hides and tallow are worth more there. there is no shrinkage in transportation, no freight to pay on waste, while there is great economy in management.
 Dr Lindsley of New Haven. secretary of the state board of health, who had ex- amined scarloads of dressed beef, said that he had always found the beef in good condition.
