GOVERNOR HILLS ACTION.
What is Said About New York's Gov
erner and the Requisitien Ques-
tion-Runaway Criminals Have n
"Snap.''
Comments here and there upon Gov
ernor Hills action in the requisition case
are as follows:
Last nights Bridgeport Standard: s'The
refusal of Governor Hill of New York to
recognize Governor Bulkeley of this state
in the matter of requisition is charac-
istic piece of political sharpness on the
part of the New York executive. He has
recognized him once, and now, at the DO
hest of his party, he turns about and re-
fuses to do So" Perhaps Governor Hill
thinks he is making himself solid with the
Connecticut democrats by refusing to rec
ognize the 'usurper.'"
Waterbury American: ''In the opinion
of the lawyers and others this is bold po-
sition for Governor Hill to assume. It is
held that he might at least grant the re-
QUESTION, with perhaps some saving clause
to the effect that he could not formally
recognize Mr.. Bulkeley as governor"
Springfield Republican: This is the odd
est episode thus far recorded in the legis-
lative dispute that is still raging in the
Nutmeg state. 1t suggests what "snap"
the runaway criminals will have during
the reign of the hold-over governor if the
chief magistrates of all other contiguous
commonwealth follow Governor Hills ex-
ample.
Meriden Republican,: The thick and-thin
sheets in this state fairly tumbled over
this morning in applauding the peanut
governors action, entirely forgetting or
ignoring the fact that the Connecticut
democratic oracle, the Hartford Times,
stated only week since that Morgan g.
Buckley is the dc facto governor of this
state
ALBANY, Feb. 25.-The action of Cover
nor Hill in refusing to recognize requi-
sition from Governor Buckley of Con
necticut, for the return of a prisoner, is
regarded by fair-,ninded people as an I'M
wise proceeding. He refused without any
examination of the cass
Hartford Post: governor Hill of New
York has demonstrated again that che is a
democrat by doing very pa1 tisan thing

nothing whatever to dc.
Hartford Times, dem: Governor Hills
course in this case will meet with hearty
approval from large number of Con-
necticut democrats. Il Neverthe-
less, Connecticut has unquestionably an
acting governor. There is constitutional
authority for the continuance of the
governor and the state officials in Office
until their successors are duly quail
fed"
Springfield Union: 'This action is no
doubt somewhat irritating, but it will not
result in serious interstate complications.
In the meantime it will be nuts for Mr.
Farden, the alleged burglar, who will be
in no hurry to have the question of the
governorship of Connecticut settled"
Judge Morris of this city approves Gov
ernor Hills course. saying: 1.-THE COVER
nor of any state would probably hesitate
to grant requisition in the present con-
dition of affairs in Connecticut. Governor
Hill is certainly discreet enough to act
properly in the matter. He has followed
the only safe course"
