The House.
There was long debate in tho house to-
day on the bill establishing the storrs
agricultural college and providing for the
distribution of the money granted by the
United States for agricultural educational
purposes. The bill turns over to the
school the fund which has heretofore gone
to Yale Sheffield Scientific school and now |
amounts to about $4,000 year, to in
crease to SOL, 900 annually. Mr.. Hale of |
Glastonbury, chairman of the committee |
on agriculture, reviewed the history of |
StorrA school Mr.. Noble of East Windsor |
supported the bill. Mr.. Stoddard of MIL |
ford disputed the idea that the state could !
turn over the government funds to the
school. It rightly belonged to Yale under |
distinct contract with the government
If diverted, it would divert the money
of Rockville said that Yale is fouriahing
and does not need the money, and the
farmers should have q school of their own
Mr.. Gum of Milford said that no jesl-
ousy exists between the two institutions,
He did not consider the Storrs school
profitable institution. It had cost the
state lot of money and had not rendered
an adequate return. Mr.. Callahan of New
Haven opposed the bill and Mr.. SAKE of
Waterbury supported 1t.
Mr.. Wood Of Manchester denounced the
l bill as in violation of a contract entered
| into between the state and the United
/ States in favor of Yale scientific school,
He foretold that If the bill passed law
suit was inevitable on the part of Yale to
recover from the state that which belonged
to it. He implored the house not to violate
its contract and obligations.
Mr.. Roche Of New Britain thought that
the state needed school of mechanical de-
sign rather than school for farmers.
Mr.. Judd of Lttchfeld said that the
state had invested $4,000 in Storrs
school, must sustain it and would do so by
adequate appropriations, but the money
which belonged to Yale should not be
diverted from 1t.
The bill was further debated by Mr..
Walden of Windham and Mr.. Tuttle of
East Haven, in Its favor. Mr.. Leo of
Westport said that the state had perfect
right to appropriate the money to Storrs
school Radcliffe Hicks of Tollsnd in
favoring the bill said that every diploma
issued by Yale had cost $40, 900. That in
stitution is supported by wealthy men and
Storrs school, which is needed by farmers,
should be fostered by the state. Mr.. Hale
of Glastonbury favored the bill in long
speech and at 8 o'clock vote was taken,
which resulted in the passage of the bill
as reported by the committee by vote of
| 1876 to 81.
The committee on military affairs re-
ported bill appropriating $4,000 for ex-
penses of the governor and staff at the
opening of the worlds fair in May.
Mayor Walsh of New Britain received
the unanimous vote of the house-2l7
votes-for associate judge of the court Of
common pleas.
Both houses adjourned to Tuesday.
