ACCIDENT AND INCIDENT,

The Bodies of Two Missing Boys Found in the Park River at Hartford.
 The bodies of two little boys were taken out of the Park river, at Hart ford, yesterday. Jamie Burke was pulled out by Officer Peter Sullivan near the Laurel street bridge about 10 o'clock, and at o'clock Dickie Beebe was found by his father at the foot of Grand avenue. Neither of the bodies were mutilated, and the faces of each were easily recognized, although Burke had been in the water two months, he having been accidentally drowned. The Beebe boy disappeared from home last week. Mir Beebe says the boy had been subject to severe headaches, and he thinks he might possibly have been deranged from tbe pain. He said he never could think that the boy had thrown himself in, with the intention of committing suicide. The police think that it was clear case of suicide. Others, unwilling to believe that such a little chap should have deliberately killed himself, say that he must have fallen accidentally into deep water. Medical Examiner Knight pronounced it a case of,aecidental drowning .s
 Charles M. Brown, a conductor on the Main street and Wethefsfield avenue street car line, at Hartford, had his right leg broken and his left foot smashed at 10 o'clock last night. As his car was nearing the tunnel at North Main street, he ran through the car to catch boy to make him pay his fare. He got on the front platform, and, in some manner slipped off, the car wheel passing over his right leg and left foot.
 Orville Atwood, of Stonington, aged 61, committed suicide to-day by hang ing himself to tree. He was insane. o.o oUsePn eo Dacn, M, S peo9ler or 5artIoid' a wagon load of potatoes. At the cross ing near Clayton station, his team was struck by a, train on the New York & New England railroad and the wagon was completely demolished, while potatoes were scattered all around the neighborhood.

APPEALS TO THE SENATE.

Late Executive Clerk Young Asks for an
 InvestiEAtIOn-Watter Letter.
 WASHINGTON, April 19.-At the open ing of the Senate the Vice-President stated that he had received a communi- cation from MP. James R. Young, late Chief Executive Clerk, with a request that 1t be laid before the Senate, and he accordingly presented it, and it would lie on the table
 The communication was lengthy and was addressed to Vice-President Morton. In it MT. Young reviews the circum- stances of his dismisSal from the oflce of Executive Clerk. He takes occasion to deny in the most emphatic way that he ever in any manner betrayed any executive proceedings of the Senate. He also cites his letter to Senator Cameron, in which he refuses to resign and asks for an investigation by the Senate of what he understands he is charged with.
 Mfr. Young says that his resignation would have been an Admission of guilt; hence his refusal to resign.
 Vice-President Morton also laid before the Senate letter received by him from Hon. Henry Watterson, who Is now in Washington, concerning the removal of Executive Clerk Young without investi- gation of the charge against him. The friends of MT. Young took occasion to make the letter basis for a renewal of their request that Mir. Young be given @ hearing, but there was no agreement on the subject and the letter was allowed to lie on the table.

THE MODUS SIGNED
Blaine and PauncefOte Come to
 Terms.
SYNOPSIS OF THE AGREEMENT.
It iS Like That of 1891, With . Dam.
 ago OlauSs Added.

If the Arbitration Goes AgaInsE tn,
 Un1eod States Canadian Sealers May Re.
 cOvor-Tho Document Considered by the
 the Committee on Foreign RsIatiOns-
 General Business of Congress.
 WASHINGTON, April 19. An agreement between the United States and Great Britain for a modus vlvendi in relation to the fur seal fisheries in BehrinE Sea for the present season was signed yester- day morning by Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British Minister, representing the Government of Her Britannic Majesty, and by James G. Blaine, Secretary of State, representing the Government of the United States.
 This important agreement was signed at Il o'clock at the residence of Secre- tary Blaine, who, owing to the inclem . ent weather, did not go to the Depart ment. He at once took it over to the Executive Mansion and laid it before the President, who in the afternoon trans- mitted it to the Senate for it's action.
 The modus is in the form of 8 supple mental convention to the treaty of arbi- tration recently negotiated and ratified. The modus vivendi states that both gov ernments will prohibit during the seal ing season the Killing of seal in that part of the BehrinR Sea lying eastward of the line of demarcation described in the act of 1861.
 The United States, 1t is understood, is allowed to kill for the subsistence of the natives on the islands of St. Paul and St George 2, 500 seals, the same restric ton as was made last year, and the United States binds itself to observe this prohibition.
 The vessels of either tho United States or Great Britain, or citizens of either country, offending against this agree ment may be seized by either of the high contracting parties, but as soon as practicable should b0 handed over to the authorities of the nation Go which they belong, who shall have sole jurisdiction to try the ofrense and impose the penal ties for the same.
 In general 1t may be said that the doc ument is 0 renewal of the agreement of 1891, with the addition of clause pro- viding for the settlement of damages sustained by the Canadian sealers through the interruption of their busi- ness in case the arbitration goes against the United States.
 Under this clause, owners of Canadian sealing vessels have already begun to file their claims with a commission Rp- pointed to receive and present them. But Gen. Foster, the agent of the United States, who is preparing thss case for this government, and Hon. E. J. Phelps, counsel, are leaving no point uncovered, and will be fully prepared to meet the claims on this score in the event that they shall ever be pressed for payment.

THE MAYMAHp MATTER.
Judiciary Commitesa's Majority Rspo-
 Declares In His Favor.

Declares tn Hlo Favor
 ALBANY, N. T., April 19 In the Sem ate last night Mir. Roesch presented tho majority report on the Maynard matter and Mir. Saxton tho minority report, and they were laid on the telbIe for printing. One hour is to bo consumed for discus sion.
 The minority report Is six columns long and reviews fhe testimony at great length. It finds that the testimony in every case justifies the charges and de- mands the resignation of Judge May nard.
 The majority report is just as long as the minority and concludes that the wit nesses were all prejudiced against the judge prior to the time they sought to investigate him.
 The evening session of the Assembly opened with one or two sensations. The first was the veto the of State Printing bill.
 Mr. Haley, by unanimous consent, said that the hopes of organized labor throughout the State had been dashed by this veto.
 MT. Wissig rose to question of priv ilege in relation to what had been in the newspapers about his speech on the Woman Suffrage bill. He said his lan- guage had been misconstrued.
 The Speaker said that debate of those in defense of WissiR and those opposing him was out of order, There was no record of what Mir. Wissig said the other day except the stenographers minutes and those the stenographer had de- stroyed at the Speakers request.

 Besides these, two men were injured. One of them, Benjamin Csssimore, will probably die.
 The works of the company consisted of number of small buildings. scat tered at a distance of about 300 feet from eachsother. The nitro-Elycerine mill was the first building to go up. and the shook of this explosion caused six other. buildings to be rent asunder by their dangerous contents exploding.
 The report was terrific and was heard in the surrounding. country for many miles. Buildings in the vicinity rocked as if on Q stormy sea and in so me in- stances appeared as if about to topple over. The startled residents rushed from their houses and saw a cloud of dust and smoke flying through the air, near the lower part of the company's works.
 They knew instinctively what had happened and ran for the mountain side, fearful that some of the large storage houses of tho company, in which there were tons df the highest and dead Hest explosives, might go up at any moment. When several minutes had passed without their fears being real fixed, the people advanced cautiously to to the scene of the explosion. e-
 The wreekAGs was 3vund to b6 on fire and burning flerealy. Tho most tiImid of those present., seeing in this Q new danger, -there being . possibility that the flames might spread to the storage houses again Aed. The others, how ever, ran out the cOmpany'S fire appara- tus and water from the lake was used to fight the fire.
 In q short time the flames were under control, and then the wreckage scattered about was overhauled for the purpose of finding the men who had been at workin the buildings. Within . few minutes two men were found. both badly in jured. The roll of the company's en- ployes was then called, and it was found that seven men were missing.
 These men were undoubtedly dad, and @ search was begun for their bodies. The searcherS were mostly old employees of the company, and knew that in a case like the present one it was useless to search among the ruins that still re- mained where the buildings had stood.
 The Bearchers have succeeded in gathering about 160 pounds of mangled flesh and bone, which is all that remains of the dead men.
 The cause of the explosion iS un- known, and a representative of the com pany on the scene says it will be impos- sible to arcertain it.

DON'T GET STUCK.

You can easily get stuck without going near anything in the shape of mud, and you can avoid being stuck. To be stuck in purchase is to be victimized. To be stuck orwell that's slang, and will let you guess the rest. Pardon the slang long enough for us to tell you that you'll be stuck on and not by our rightly made cloth ing. By rightly made we mean right in every respect, color as well as style, quality and fit. To have the color reliable is quite important this season, while the market is full of light colors and many of them will fade badly when worn. Study economy by wear ing our reliable clothing.
