ABOUT THE SECONDS eATLINe GUN
Lieutenant Scars Again Ordered to
Accept the Piece.

Lieutenant Scars Again Ordered to
Accept the Piece.
After Lieutenant Sears of the Second
regiment machine gun platoon had re-
fused to accept the gatling gun recently
returned from the repair shop, an Off
cial of the quartermaster-gener de-
partment went to New Haven and
looked over the gun and found the num-
Der 62, was the same as recorded when
the gun was received from New Haven,
Lieutenant Sears thinks he has the
Thirds gun carriage ana in that also he
seems to be mistaken, says the Hartford
Courant. When the guns and carriages
were repaired and renovated in Colts
all were made alike in every respect.
Each was returned from where it came,
but all had been changed 80 as not to be
readily recognized. AS now complete
they all more nearly resemble the
Thirds gun carriage, which previously
had some improvements now adopted
for the others.
Acting under instructions from Gene
raj Watson, Lieutenant Henry Avery of
Hartford, who is the senior platoon
commander, recently wrote to Lieuten-
ant Sears suggesting a meeting of the
platoon commanders to formulate
system of tactics to operate the four
platoons as battery. Lieutenant Sears
replied in substance that when he got
his own gun back he might consider
the subject, which rather discouraged
Avery.
There seems to be no doubt that the
gun and carriage sent to New Haven are
the same received from there. The gun
may not seem so pretty to the New
Haven platoon as all the bright parts
have been Drowned and other changes
and improvements made, but the gun is
much more serviceable and is yet state
property.
Lieutenant Sears has again been di-
rected by the quartermaster-g general to
accept the gun and receipt for it.

The directors of the road held meet

elected David s. Plume of this city, first
as director and then as .vice-president
director of the New York & New Eng
land road.
There seems now to be no doubt that
the Meriden, Waterbury & Connecticut
River road was bought for the Housa-
tonic, as has been limited. F. H. Prince,
who made the purchase, practically ad-
mits this.
Mr. Prince highly complimented the
new president of the New England
road, Charles Parsons, and he said that
under his regime the New York & New
England is bound to hum right along.
In regard to the MerideD, Waterbury
& Connecticut River road Mr. Prince
said that in due time it would be ex-
tended to make connections with the
other roads, but no radical changes
would be made as it was the intention
to run the road in the interest of Meri-
den and Waterbury people the same as
in the past.
