A Hartford Architect Brinrs Sui
 Against tho Conaolidataa

A Hartford Architect Briu1n Shit
 Against the Consolidated,
 The New York Sun says that E. V. R. Thayer has resigned as a director of tho New York & New England railroad. His reason is that, in view of the fact that his fathers estate is heavily inter ested in the Old Colony railroad he could not sit upon the board of a rival company.
 George Keller, architect, of Hartford, has brought suit against the Consolidat- ed road for g 800. Before the new depot at Hartford was built the railroad com pany made propositions to Keller, to a Bridgeport and to a Boston architect. The terms of the proposal were that each architect should submit plans and that each should receive therefor $25O, and that the man whose plans were suc- cessful should receive $1 ,0OO. The three gentlemen submitted their plans and those from Boston, with notifications by MT Curtis engineer of the new Haven road, were accepted. Mir Keller received his plans back and $25O. The station was built and MT Keller now claims that the plans used were substantially his, and that the company has never paid him for them. He brings suit to recover $2 800 for them.
 Supt Chevalier of the Now England road stated yesterday that the Washing ton express would be withdrawn from Erie road, next month. A train will probably be placed upon this section of the New Englbnd road to take the place of tho Washington express, but as ar 1 engagements are not yet completed, MT Chevalier was unable to say anything | definite about the matter. He said, however. that Danbury and Waterbury would be well provided for in the near future, in both local and southern travel.
 Tho New England road is engaged in brisk warfare with the Old Colony, the rivalry being confined to passenger rates between Boston and Providence. The Now England has cut the rate from $1 to 75 cents, and threatens to build from Valley Falls into Providence, a distance of seven miles. This will cost $1 ,00O, ,O00, but the New England Provi- dence line will stand it on q capitaliza- tion of only $45 1000 per mile. | A freight car standing on a switch in the New England railroad yard at Nor gan street, Hartford, was knocked into the street yesterday afternoon and for a | while completely blocked team travel. to the switch at considerable speed The men were several hours getting it back in the yard.
 The Meriden, Waterbury & Connecti-
 cut River road has commenced to fill in the approaches to the Baldwin street bridge. The work was ordered done long, long ago.
 Brakemen on the Naugatuck freight trains complain that lately they have to look out for stones thrown at them by boys as they enter Seymour from the south. There have been several narrow escapes from being struck by the missiles and the brakemen are becoming tired of being made targets of.

LITTLE ABRAHAM LINCOLN, son of
the United States minister to London,
and grandson of that greatest of all
Americans, the immortal martyr of
freedoms cause, has gone to his home
in the hereafter. In a far distant
land the suffering boy drew out the
painful hours of life's closing day, and
his heart broken parents are LEFT
doubly alone in their desolation.
From ten thousand homes in this
dear land the hand of sympathy is
stretched across the dividing distance,
and nations heart beats responsive
to the sorrow that swells in their
bosom. A brave patient struggle has
the little one had with the grim king
only to be laid low in the strife.

Savannah News.
1t appears that nearly all old con-
federates in Georgia who lost leo or
an arm in the service of the state
avails himself of her generosity. They
feel that they have well earned the
stipend to which the Chowder act en-
titles them, and they draw it ire
spective Of their private financial con-
ditiou. Perhaps the most notable
name on the pension list is
that of Gen. Longstreet. He gets
$50 yearly for disabled arm, the re.
suit of shot in the neck. Justice
Mark Blandford, of the Supreme
Court. receives 500 for the loss of an
arm; Judge Newman, of the Northern
District Uuited States Court, gets
500, and DR.. J. S. Todd a like amount.
Maj. Joe Blance, of Cedeartown is
another well known Georgian who
draws his pension regularly, having
left an arm behind him on the field
of battle; Judge George n. Lester sus-
tanned a like loss and draws the
same amount, and Comptroller Gener-
al Wright gets as much for the loss
of leg. One hundred and fifty dol
lars is the biggest pension paid, and
perhaps u. {. Caddle, of Richmnd
county, is the most completely dis
abled Confederate on the pension list.
He lost both legs and both arms, be-
sides being wounded in the head and
suffering other permanent injuries.
R. H. Nations, Of Whitfield, is also
one of the worst crippled and best
paid of the number. He re-
ceived wounds which necessitated
the amputatiOn of both legs
above the knee. Z. B. Higgen-
bOthsm had both legs taken off be-
low the knees. Among those who
draw the maximum amount of $l5C
annually there are DO less than fifteen
men who suffered the loss of both
eyes. Gen. VIM. Phillips, of Marlet,
ia, lost the sight Of one eye, but draws
no pension; neither does Gen. Phi
Cook, the new secretary Of state
though he was shot all to pieces and
received some injuries of permanent
nature.
