HARTFORD CATHEDRAL.
Decorations Almost Completed and
Affairs Being Built.

AFFAIRS Being bullC.
The interior decorations of st Joseph's
cathedral in Hartford are virtually com
pleted, and the only work now going on
consists in putting the finishing
touches on the canopy surrounding the
pulpit, decorating the face of the inn
mense organ and placing the stained
glass W indows in good condition. The
main altar, and the affairs of st Patrick
and st Bridget are now being built in
Boston, and 1t is expected they will be
completed before many weeks. The
main altar will be twenty-seven feet
high from the base to the tip of the cross
at the top. 1t will be of white marble,
with the exception of the columns at the
base, which will be of onyx. The altar
will be one of the finest in America.
The new cathedral will be lighted by
electricity but gas will also be supplied
in case of any accident to the electric
light plant. The system of electric
lights is to be so arranged that it can be
operated from keyboard, thus enabling
a person to control every light in the
building, or any section of lights, by
pressing a button.
The contract calls for the completion
of the cathedral by March 1, 1891, and
there is every reason to suspect that
there will be no disappointment. The
conservation is set down for March 49,
the feast of st Joseph, to whose honor
the cathedral is dedicated.

New YORK, Nov. 19.-Miss Gladys
Price. aged "a, was shot through the left
lung last night by John 7, Davis, aged
As and now lies In the hospital in a
critical condition.
Miss Price is the organist at the Mari
ners' Temple, corner of Madison and
Catherine streets, and was just leaving
the building after the evening services
when Davis shot her.
Davis is a lunatic of the most pro-
nounced character. He has at times fol-
lowed the sea for a living and lately
has frequented the reading room in the
basement of the Mariners Temple. Davis
was at once arrested.
At the station house he declared that
Miss Price was his wife though the girl
AYERS that she never spoke to him. He
also declared that Grover Cleveland was
continually following her. He had
challenged Cleveland to fight duel and
last night saw him in the church sitting
by the side of Miss Price. He said his OBJ
ject was to kill her and then kill Cleye-
land, who had led her away from him.
Davis expressed no regret at his act,
except to say he was sorry he did not kill
Mr.. Cleveland, which he declared he
would yet do. -"

SUPREME COURT.
Case or Interest to Railroads and
insurance Companies.

case or Interest to Railroads and
insurance Companies.
The supreme court was in session yes
terday at the capitol. The Tolland
county case of James j. Regain vs. the
New York & New England Railroad
company was argued. The case is an
interesting and important one. Regain
had some shoddy stock in storehouse
near the railroad. A spark from an en-
CINE set fire to the building. Regain
wants the railroad to make good his
loss. At the first hearing Regain was
asked il his insurance had not fully
COMPENSATED him for his loss. This
question was objected to and the court
sustained the objection. In appealing
the case the railroad claims that the
court should have allowed the question
iuasmuch as the railroad is only liable
for the injury done, and if Regan's loss
was entirely paid by the insurance COM
panies he was not injured.
The Hartford county case OF the state
of Connecticut vs. the New York, New
Haven & Hartford Railroad occupied
the entire afternoon and will probably
take up most of to- day. Hyde, Gross
& Hyde are counsel for the plaintiff,
and Fl. G. Robinson and G. d. Watrous
for the defendant.
This case is a suit instituted by the
state to recover taxes, which it claims
were not paid, owing to false returns of
the amount of "cash on hand" which
the railroad company made to the state
comptroller, with its other returns,
from 1880 to 1885 inclusive. The law
provides that the railroads shall be taxed
upon the market value of their stock
and their funded and floating debts
minus the amount of their cash on hand
the assessments being made by the board
of equalization upon the returns made
by the companies.
The state claims the following In
| 1880, amount of cash on hand reported
under oath by the treasurer of the COM
pany, $2,047 ,085,S0 actual amount
$3.50, 276, so !; in 1881, amount reported,
%, 100, GIG, SO actual amount, SIZE, 1884,
70; in 1882, amount reported, $685.
100, 16 actual amount, 1857 ,346, 40; in
1888, amount reported, $3.50, 537, SO
actual amount, $978, 616,97 in 1884,
amounted reported, 81, 013, 909, 21 ; actual
amount, 1855, 112, so in 1885, amount
reported, 81, 415, PAS, SO; actual amount,
$997 ,sO3, O2,
The company claims unconstitutional
ity of the law, non-assessment of the
taxes sought to be recovered, errors in
| admitting and not admitting certain evi.
dence at the former trial, and that the
rulings of the board of equalization were
final. The company claims it under
stood the term "cash on hand' to mean
the "quick assets" Of the company in
distinction from its railroad property.
