Creditors of n JeweIer Who Left This
City Under II Cloud.
George w. Hayward of Fair Haven is
missing. Several months ago he started
jewelry store in this city, obtaining
goods on credit from several New York
firms. One New York firm, however,
s. F. Myers & Co, demanded security
from him for goods bought of them.
He therefore induced DIR B. L. Lambert
and D. G. Winans, both of New Haven,
to come to his aid, assuring them it was
only a matter of form. They accord
ingly signed an agreement which the
New York firm submitted, binding
themselves in the sum of $3.50 each to be
responsible for all goods to a certain
amount which S. F. Myers & Co, of
New York should send Hayward on
commission. Myers accordingly sent
the goods. Later they wanted the pay,
but Hayward had closed his store, hav-
ing sold the goods at ruinously low
prices and had decamped. The New
Haven men who went surety for Hay
ward are now called upon for the $500
and the New York firm has authorized
a lawyer to bring suit.

How He SecRred Those Dispatches
Supporting Him.
The manner in which Editor Porter of
the Post is attempting to sustain his
position in the controversy with Judge
Harrison is shown by a card which he
has sent out marked confidential" The
following copy has not been treated as
confidential by the recipient:
HARTFORD Posi-, HARTFORD, JULY 16.
Dear Sir: We trust you will be able to
send the Post tomorrow friday noon a
few lines by telegraph-say eight or ten
IRON your town or vicinity endorsing
Mr. Porter's expose of Lynde Harrison's
assault on him and the republican party
and repudiating Harrison's leadership.
Ii you are not able to reach us by tele-
graph tomorrow do not fail to let us
have the information by mail by Mon
day next, and keep it up for the good of
Conhectlcut and the republican party.
H. B. RUSSELL,
Managing Editor Hartford Post.
Saturday night Mr. Porter said edito-
rally that he now proposes to let the
matter drop, and that the thirty
dispatches published on Friday, which
were probably in response to the above
letter, show in what opinion the King
of the Lobby, as he calls Mr. Harrison, is
held by loyal republicans all over the
state. "He has been exposed and re-
buked, and if the party does not respect
itself sufficiently to get rid of his leader
ship in its next campaign it must suffer
the consequences"
Judge Harrison said yesterday that he
thought the effect of the controversy
between himself and Porter would be
that when the house reconvenes in
November all the democratic candi-
dates except Judge Morris would be
Immediately seated. If this was done,
as he anticipates, the ventilation of the
secrets of the house s'steering commit
tee" would not injure the republican
party in the state. He did not know
whether the senate would consent to the
election of Merwin, but this made no
difference. The house would, in his
opinion, do what was right, regardless
of what the senate might do.

ACCIDENT AND INCIDENT.
Henry Thayer Rapidly Recovering Fro1
His Injuries.

Henry Thayer Rapidly Recovering From
His Injuries.
Henry Thayer of Seymour who was
SO severely injured by the explosion of
an lmpromptu cannon, in June, is re-
covering with rapidity that is sur
prising even to the physicians. He is
now able to sit up in his cot at the New
Haven hospital, and his diet is chiefly of
solid food. He is perfectly rational and
not the slightest sign of lack of intelIi-
gence or of injury to his mental facul-
ties can be discovered. His amputated
arm is healing nicely and the wounds in
his skull, which were SO severe as to lead
to the general belief that his reason was
destroyed, are in a very encouraging
state and healing quickly. As an opera
ton must ultimately be performed on
the cavity from which one eye was
blown the physicians have decided to do
it next week and have all of his injuries
healing at once.
DIR Look of MlddleJOwn made an au-
topsy on the body of the man found
floating off Westbrook, and reports that
the stranger did not die from the effect
of blows. He may have been pushed
off some vessel, but the probability is
that he was either accidentally drowned
or committed suicide. The name of
Sullivan" was on his trousers and the
SOoO " 90 PAOOshOlJ ny M h1ll6f
of New York, as Miller's name appears
on that garment. The body has been
inferred by the authorities.
An unknown man was found uncon-
scious on Morgan street, Hartford, last
night by policeman. He had a cut
on the back of his head and another on
his forehead, and the bones at the base
of the nose were crushed in. The ambu-
lance took him to the hospital, where
he regained consciousness long enough
to tell with difficulty that his name was
Sullivan. He relapsed again into un-
consciousness, and at late hour last
night was still in that condition. Not
much could be learned about how the
injuries were inflicted. 1t was said
that boy threw a light missile at an
Italian, who thought it had been thrown
by Sullivan. He turned to attack the
Irishman, tripped him and threw him
against the curb. This probably caused
the cut at the back of the head. The
Italian then jumped on the PROSTATE
man, punched him in the face several
times and then got up and stamped on
his noe and cheeks with his heel.

SUNDAY AT CANT.
Catholic Services Will Doubtless be Held
There.

CATHOLIC SerVfces VIII DOubtIess be Held
There.
In accordance with a suggestion that
appeared in the state papers to the effect
that provision should be made for cele-
braing mass at the Mantle camp on the
Sunday that the brigade is under can
vass, Colonel Haven, of the Third reg1-
ment, has communicated with head
quarters on the subject. General Wat
son will lay the matter before Rev Father
Hughes and doubtless Rev Father
Joynt of New London will be designated
to hold the required service. There are
a great many Catholic young men in
the regiment and the provision for cele-
brating mass will be appreciated by
them. A large tent would do for their
accommodation and will be about the
only available place as their is no hall in
Mantle quite large enough.

RAILROAD MATTERS OF INTEREST


The Latest Rumor Concerning the New
York and New England.
The Boston Commercial Bulletin re-
news its assertion that the New York &
New England road is to pass into the
hands of the Old Colony and its positive
declaration is, of course. creating some
comment. A gentleman, who is well
informed, says: Such thing would be
of advantage to the Old Colony but it
would call for a large sum of money,
apparently far more than the company
could raise. 1t involves buying over
$4,000, 900 of stock and if that were
picked up at market rates it would cost
So, 100000. The New England road is
in stronger condition than it was a
while ago. 1t is understood that twelve
of the directors took the entire 5000, 900
of the new preferred stock at par
Selling in the street at 95) and that this
money makes the company Independent
and prevents the possibility of being
pushed to the wall by creditors.
The contract for building from the
Poughkeepsje bridge to Hopewell a line
to connect the New York & New Eng
land with the Poughkeepsie bridge was
let July ID. The road is to be built in
one hundred days. The bridge syndi-
cate provide the funds. This link will
enable the New England to draw freight
from all lines that reach the bridge.

DESPITE MR. sTAuB's SUGGESTION

Labor Commissioner HOtchkiss Will
Employ His Special Agents.
Labor Commissioner Hotchkiss was
informed by Comptroller Staub, Satur-
day, that the special agents, who were
recently appointed by the commissioner
to gather statistics for the use of the de-
partment, could not be paid by the
state, in view of the failure of the lesis-
lature to make an appropriation for the
labor bureau.
This action of Mr. Staub is in accord
ance with the opinion of Mr. Hammersley,
recently submitted, which advises the
comptroller to draw orders for only
those expenses which the law makes
imperative. The law relative to the
labor bureau says the commissioner
"shalP' collect statistics and that he
"may" employ assistants. In order to
fulfill the mandatory part of the law,
the commissioner has used the discre-
ton given him and appointed, as special
agents, S. N. Benedict of Hartford,
George H. Larned of New Haven, D.
Newland Davis of Middletown and Mar
Gus E. Baldwin of Middletown.
Mr. Hotchkiss says the employment of
these special agents is necessary to the
carrying out of the work the law i'm
poses upon his office. He is given dis
erection about employing them because
1t is not necessary to have them In ser
vice all the time. He employs assist
ants to help in gathering the informa-
ton that is embodied in the annual re-
ports, and when their work is done they
are discharged. He says the decision of
the comptroller will make no difference
in the conduct of the Office. Unless
some arrangement can be made for the
payment of these agents as their pay
falls due Mr. Hotchkiss says he will be
compelled to employ only men who can
afford to wait for their pay until the
legislature provides for it. He says it is
impossible for the commissioner and his
clerk to do alone what is expected of his
office, and a fair Interpretation of the
statute makes the employment of the
special agents a necessity.

DEADLY TARANTIILAS.

Horrible Hairy Spiders Whose Bite Is
Certain and Painful Death.
1t is a fact not generally known that
there are two varieties of tarantulas in
Arizona and New Mexico. This probably
accounts for the conflicting reports about
the deadly nature of the tarantula poison.
The so-called Texas tarantula is by no
means an agreeable bedfellow, but his
bite is by no means fatal. The venomous
Texas tarantula, in spite of all discussions
to the contrary, does build and live in the
trap-door spider nest. There seems TO be
a current idea that the trap-door spider is
harmless, which is certainly erroneous.
1t uses no web net, easily capturing its
prey by extraordinary springs. Those
who have seen this arachnidan by day
light can have little idea of its power and
fleetness. During the day il moves slowly
and clumsily in the dazzling light, but
when darkness comes it can move with
ease and certainty. Credible accounts
have appeared stating that the tarantula
can leap sixteen feet, says the Florence
Companion. Repeated statements have
credited it with leaps of three feet or
more. in 1870, or near that date, three
men disturbed several tarantula nests
near San Diego. They were Immediately
attacked by the huge spiders and had to
run for their lives, taking refuge in the
waters of the bay.
on the other hand, the poison of the
Mygale species is of fearful nature
more dreaded than that of rattlesnake-
and unless only slightly scratched, and
heroic measures used, the result is fatal.
Many deaths are on record caused by
| these spiders. The most prolonged suf-
| fering was that of San Diego woman.
/ a tarantula sunk its fangs in her hand
