abusing his horse by fast driving and
/ whipping it on Quinnipiao and Washing
ton streets. The officer found Phoenix
near Franklin hall on Center street, and
took charge of him aud the horse and
drove uptown and turned the case over to
Sheriff Rod Austin. A crowd soon COL
lected In front OF Austin's Office, where
Phoenix was questioned and acknowledged
that he got mad and struck the horse with
the whip five, ten or fifteen times. The
horse showed the marks of the whip
Sheriff Austin finally told Phoenix to get
into his carriage and drive home, which he
did. The matter will be investigated this

BOARD OF PUBLIC. WORKS.

Brief Meeting at which Little
Business was Transatlantic Meet
Again This Evening.
A brief meeting of the board of public
works WAS held last evening, at which the
chief business was the question of the
right of the Whitney avenue road to relay
It's tracks, 20 that they could be used
when electricity became the motive power
of the line. For several days past the road
has been relaying its tracks, and the at
tention of the board was called to the mat
ter by Superintendent of Streets Doyle.
The matter came before the board in the
shape of an order from the court of COM
mon council directing the board of public
works to locate thespoles, etc., for the
road, but as the board knew nothing of
any contract between the city and the rail
road company having here signed, the
board felt that 1t could not legally 60 on
with the work.
At the meeting last evening Manager
Dodge f the Whitney avenue road stated
that the contract had been signed by the
officials of the road and turned over to
Mayor Sargent. 1t was later brought out
that the mayor had turned the contract
over to the corporation counsel for his
opinion as to the LEGALITY of the contract.
Owing to the fact that the board had not
seen the contract 1t was voted to defer
action on the matter until this evening
when another special meeting will be held.
Commissioner Sullivan was appointed q
committee to secure the contract from
Corporation Counsel Driscoll and request
his presence this evening.
Only four members of the board, Com
missioners Brown, johnson, Sullivan and
Maley, were present last evening. Com
missioner Brown acting as president.

Barn on the whitney PROPERTY
Burned-Lass Nights Fire.
The alarm of fire late yesterday fore
noon was struck owing to a fire in barn
located in the rear Of 405 Whitney avenue,
belonging to Stephen Whitney. Chief
Kennedy gave directions to let the build.
ing burn, as all the horses and WAGONS
had been removed and no water was
thrown upon it. The barn was insured.
Some excitement was caused by a report
that dynamite was stored in the barn.
Workmen who had done blasting out in
that section had stored their explosives
there. 1t was probably nearly all removed
as nothing beyond a few sharp reports is
sued from the burning building.
About 7:3O Last evening fire was dscov.
cred issuing from the rear of the BUILDING
occupied by Dewitt 9. Beardsley, at 81
Water street, cabinet and mantel maker.
The FIRE started In bin of shavings nes,
the engine room. Before the department
had arriyed.and they were quickly on the
scene-the flames spread over the entire
lower Aoor. The fire continued to burn
fercely for some time, bat was confined
to the lower floor. The stock
of mantel material and the machinery
on the lower floor were completely DESTROY
cd, as in consequence of the ferceness Of
the lanes, when the fire was first dis
covered 1t was impossible to save any of
the stock or equipment. The amount of
loss and the insurance on the building
could not be ascertained last evening, as
upon inquiring at Mr.. Bradley's residence
on Ward street 1t was found that he was
away in Milford. The less is estimated at
about 5000, on which there was con-

Hon. John p. Tuttle,s Illness.
--I1Sa I'LL Ia.-- Ill -,


The public will learn with sincere re-
greet that the illness of Mr.. John P. futile,
the much esteemed secretary and treasurer
of the New Haven Savings bank was such
yesterday as to preclude all hope of his
recovery. He was very low last evening,
though 1t was thought he might survive
until morning or possibly through to-day.
His long public prominence in the respon-
sibls position he has been occupying and
which he has SO long, ably and faithfully
and honor, and his quiet unostentatious
life, have endeared him to the community
and his sudden and rapid decline of health
makes the situation all the more felt in
the city. Enquiries as to his condition
among our business men were numerous
yesterday and deep regret was explained
on all sides. His disease appears to be
Bright's disease coupled with heart difficult
ty and yesterday the use of opiates was
found requisite to release the sufferer. DE-.
Whittemore, his attending physician, has
been unremitting in his care and attention
to the patient, but Mr.. Tuttle's advanced
years made the prospects from the outset
very doubtful. Mr.. futile was at the
bank as usual only last Wednesday. His
health had been poor for several months
past, and his trip to Brooklyn, when he
visited for two weeks his brother In law,
Frederick E. Ives, was with the hope that
the change might be beneficial. Mr.. Tut
ties friends in the city, his birthplace and
lifelong home. are legion in number, and
among his most enjoyable recollections
were his schoolboy DAYS at the old I,aucss-
terrain school. As master carpenter and
builder, later as lumber merchant, his
partner being for years the late Hon.
Charles L. English, and afterwards our ex-
postmaster, B. R. English, Mr.. Tuttle's
name was Synonymous with honor and in
tegrity, and the same reputation has grown
by his presidency of the Mechanics' bank,
and the present position as treasurer of
the New Haven Savings bank.

Flower Thieves In Branford.


BRANFoRD, May 19.-Residents of Bran
ford and vicinity are greatly exercised at
the depredations Of flower thieves during
the last three nights. Their stealings have
been unusually daring and have aroused
the indignation Of the whole town. On
Tuesday and Wednesday night many gar
dens In the center of the town were visited
and dozens Of plants taken. but tho esca-
pads of tho thieves some time early this
morning capped the climax. Yesterday
Florist Eyerdean received from New York
one thousand pansy plants and got them
out temporarily In his grounds. This
morning only a dozen of them were left.
The plants had been SGT loosely in the
earth and had been taken roots and all.
1t must have taken the thieves some hours
to accomplish the steal. Many other valu-7
able plants in gardens near by were also
taken. The authorities are making effort
to apprehsnd the thieves and believe they
hare clue to thsir identity.
