He Gives His Rensous in q Connecticut
| Court for Still Acting rs Governor.
NEW HAVEN, May S.-Attorney Will
lam G. Case, of this city, acting for Gov
ernor Morgan G. BuIkeley and Lieutenant
Governor Samuel P. Merwin, filed the
answer of those two gentlemen to the quo
warranto proceedings brought by Luzon B.
Morris and DR.. Alsop, in the Superior
Court this morning. In his answer Gov
ernor Bulkeley claims that he, and no other
person, is the true and lawful Governor of
Connecticut, and that the Court should be
bound to take judicial notice OF the fact and
dismiss the proceeding. Then he says the
General Assembly of Connecticut at its
January session, 1889, by. joint ballot,
elected him to be Governor for the term of
two years and until his successor should be
duly qualified.
Then he goes on to state that he still acts
as Governor because no successor to him ir
the office as Governor has yet been chosen
and duly qualified TO hold such Office, and
no person can be vested with the Office of
Governor Of Connecticut until he has been
duly declared Governor by the General
Assembly Of Connecticut and qualified ac-
cordingly. The answer goes on to state that
Luzon B. Morris did not have a majority
over all, and that on account of the manifest
mistakes in the facel of the returns it was
impossible to tell who, if anyone, had been
legally chosen Governor. Concluding,
Governor Bulkeley denies that he usurps the
Office, and says that he uses said Office by
warrant of the law.

WILD POLITICAL GOSSIP.

Rumors in Connection With the Ousting OF
Governor Boyd in Nebraska.
OMAHA, May 8.-The ousting of Gov.
ernor Boyd has given rise to many startling
political rumors, the latest of which is that
Chief Justice Cobb wants to be Senator,
and that by helping Thayer in as Governor
he will secure the coveted place by appoint
ment.
In.order to make room for him, the rumor
says that Senator Manderson will be ap-
pointed to succeed Secretary Proctor when
the latter official takes Edmunds' place in
the Senate. Senator Ma nderson returned
home from Washington to-day, and was
asked by reporter as to the reliability of
the gossip, He replied: 81 can say without
hesitancy that there is no foundation what
ever for It,"

The Columbus Catcher Now Wants to Come

The Columbus Catcher Now Wants to Come
to Play in This City.
There are now very well defined rumors cur
rent TO the effect that Catcher O'Connor, of the
Columbus club, will after all be soon playing
on the Pittsburg team. 1t was stated yesterday
that o. 'Connor has been making overtures to Join
the Pittsburc club as soon as possible. Presi-
dent O'Neil was Questioned regarding the mat
ter yesterday, and said:
THE O'Connor matter has been left entirely
with me. He owes US $50. and think it will
be the best way If he comes here and works it
out. Oh. yes: it is quite true that he has re-
quested, or, at least. stated his desire to join
our team. He has stated this both by wire and
by lettef We already have his contract signed
that is. the contract he signed with us when we
gave him the advance money. Of course, he
was led away from that contract bv influences
that were not good and that were injurious to
himself"
From the above it may be understood that
something" is going on, and that O'Connor
may be here at any time. One thing is certain;
that is he has declared that he is tired of the
Columbus team and of the Association en-
tirely.

The quarters of the Bureau of Health
were yesterday removed from the temporary

ants will occupy room on the lower hoor,

Baker is much pleased with the new
arrangement. as he says it is mucn more
convenient than the Offices in the. burned
building on Seventh street.
Speaking Of the death rate Mr.. Baker said
that it was now normal. He thought that
about all the people who had the grip had
either died or got we'll. There were now no
reports OF death from that disease. It was
remarkable. he said, how many old people
had snccumbed to that disease during the
latter part of March and the entire month
Of April. The falling off in the death rate
had been as rapid as its awful increase.
