builder at South Coventry, left his home
last Friday for New Haven, driving to
Willimantic, where he left the team at a
stable and took train, stating that he
would return the same night. 1t is learned
that he transacted his business in New
Haven, and started for the depot, but
nothing has since been heard Of him.
He was of sober habits, and had but little
money with him. 1t is thought that he
may be suffering from temporary aber-
ration of mind. He was experimenting
some extensive repairs, and intended to
hurry back.

Speculation on ne Succass;op

WASHINGTON, March 22.-Speculation
on the possibility OF succession in the
event of Justice Matthew'S death has
been quietly INDUCED in for two weeks,
that is, ever since the dangerous coudi-
ton Of Mr.. Matthews was known. 1t is
generally believed that President Harri-
son will appoint Walter Q. Gresham.
United States Circuit Judge, to the place
left vacant by Justice Matthew'S death.
Judge Gresham was one Of General Har-
rison's opponents before the Chicago con-
vention. He is an Indiana man, although
for several years past he has been a resi-
dent of Illinois. His reputation as q
iur1st is Of the highest.
