THE HARRINGTON TRAGEDY.

A "Democrat' Reporter Breaks the
News OF the Stabbing of Young
Latham to His Mother.
The condition of Walter w. Latham
of this city, who was stabbed by rival
for the hand of Miss Jennie Hale, in
Harwinton, Sunday night, an exclusive
account of which appeared IN the DEMO
Graf yesterday, had changed but little
last night, and DR. Fanchett gave but
little hopes of the young mans recovery.
The self-inflicted stab wounds OF Leslie
Curtis. the assailant Of Latham, are
serious, but, it is thought. not neces-
sarily fatal.
A reporter of the DEMOCRAT called at
the residence of Latham's parents, 2o4
North Main street, yesterday evening,
and was the first to break the news OF
the terrible occurrence to the young
mans mother. She said that her hus-
band had received telegram from Har-
winton saving that Walter had been
hurt but giving no further particulars
Mr. Latham immediately left for Har-
winton and no word had been received
from him when the reporter called at
the house.
Last Friday young Latham received a
letter from Miss Hale in which she
begged of him to go to Harwinton sun
day, saying that something, had hap
pened and if he did not call soon she
would die. Latham hired team, Sun
day, from Liveryman Sackett and drove
| to the home of Miss Hale. The trouble
she spoke Of was caused by Curtis. who
continued to pay attentions to the young
lady after she had discarded HIM and he
had been refused admittance TO her
home.
Latham was employed in this city as
a driver for Tracy brothers. and Is well
spoken of. Curtis is we'll known in
Harwinton and has always been re-
garded as a model young man.
This afternoon DR. Hanchett an
nounced that both men were very low
to-day, although trifle better than he
expected. He fears that Inflammation
| will set in with fatal results.

NEwBURG, N. Y, June 10.-Over one
hundred iron workers and riveters en-
ployed at Marvel 4 Co. 8 shi p yard have
gone on strike. About four weeks ago the
men requested their employers to per
init them to go to work at $50 in the
morning instead of o'clock, SO that
they might work four hours extra, and
have Saturday afternoon for recreation.
Mr.. Marvel consented to try the expert,
ment, but now finds that he cannot
carry out the arrangement, as 1t seri-
ously interferes with contracts for
work to be delivered on time. When
notice to this effect was given, the men
refused to go to work.

PUZZLES THE DOCTORS.
A Birmingham Man Finds Himself
In u Queer Predicament.

A Birmingham Man Finds Himself
In u Queer Predioament.
BIRMINGHAM, June 1O.-The case of
Fred II. Couch of this place is still a
puzzling one for the doctors. Some
time ago it was telegraphed all over the
country that Mr. Couch fell while at
work and struck his throat on a bench.
The fall was severe one and it seemed
to temporarily paralyze the muscles of
the throat, for he became dumb and
could not utter word for several days.
His voice came back to him suddenly
one day, but since that time he has lost
the power of speech several times. He
as suddenly regains the faculty of
for any length of time. His predica-
ment is curious one. Sometimes he
tries to speak only to find that there is
nothing to do but wait for his voice to
come hack again.

Fighting the Horse Railroad.

DANBURY, June 1O.-The fight be-
tween the common council of this city
and the horse railroad company is not
vet settled and it will not be until next
September probably. The company had
intended to begin the laying of the GEN.
ter bearing rails on Division street de.
spite the fact that the common council
had refused them permission to take this
step. Yesterday morning they were all
ready to begin the work when an OBJ
struction in the form ora deputy sheriff
armed with al injunction restraining the
company from laying the rails appeared
on the scene. This move while not a
great surprise to the officials of the COM
pany was great annoyance. The hear
ing on the injunction will not take
place until September. This morning
the rails were carted back to the stable.

LUzoN MORRIS FOR GOVERNOR.

New Haven's Candidate Pretty
Certain to Lead the Democrats.
Says the Hartford correspondent of
the Springfield Republican
AS has been stated in this correspon-
dence before, the democrats have practi-
cally agreed upon Judge Luzon B.
Morris to again lead them in their guber-
motion somewhat, the contest for the
other places on the ticket and the first
thing that has been ascertained is that
ex Senator Kirkham won't do for
second place again. He is granger Of
the grangers, to be sure, but he did not
prove to be a good withdrawing card in
1885, was the weight on the ticket.
The friends of Col Charles NJ. Joslyn
have slated him for the place and his
Hartford constituency is in working
trim for him. The colonel is a man of
fine attainments and a good deal of a
politician but very unlucky in his candi-
dacy for the mayoralty of the city, for
which he has been twice a candidate.
He did serve in the lower house, how
ever, and made a hard working and
conscientious representative. He would
add to the ticket in several ways, and
in no one particular more than in his
ability to take the stump. He is a good
speaker and one of the readiest men on
the platform in the state.

tin for the past week shows temperature

bugs eating potatoes some. Lebanon
Corn is backward; potatoes, oats and
grass doing we'll. New Britain-Grass

dletown-The best week of the season
grass coming on very fast. Milford
Grass is heavy, corn is mostly planted
some potatoes have not come well, vege.
tables of all kinds are up and growing.
Stevenson-Oatsa are very badly rusted
though l do not know the reason, as

II may be pointed out that these

an absence OF two thousand years,
