ALBANY, March 25-Memorial services
by the Legislature in honor of the late
General James W. Hustled were held in the
assembly chamber here this evening. The
chamber was not half large enough to hold
the crowd seeking admission.
The speakers and clerks desks were
draped in mourning and the front of the
ladies' gallery was hung with Gags. Over
the speakers desk hung en- oil painting of
General Hustled draped in black. The
audience included number of the late
generals relatives, friends, members and
ex-members of the legislature for many
years back, Governor Flower, judges of
the court of appeals and state officers.

Chauncey N. Depew then delivered On

Our departed friend saw, as no other
public man has been permitted to observe,
the triumphs and defeats, the hopes and
disappointments, the joys and sorrows. the
realities and romances of political careers.
Every conspicuous figure in either party
| during the past quarter of q century has
been his associate and his friend. As Q
| veteran leader in tho assembly he witnessed
| the msteoric advent of Mr.. Cleveland In
Albany and OWNED the power which has
| developed such phenomenal strength in
the state and in the country.
It will remember the unique distinction
of General Husted that, though subject to
the ordeal of an annual election, he held
place and power during this 'wreck of
matter and the crush of worlds"
| As legislator he favored all political
moral and social reforms. On such ques
tions he rose above party considerations
He advocated woman suffrage, wise regu
lation of tho liquor traffic, the protection
of the American Sunday, better care of the
unfortunate wards of the state and he was
the most efficient friend of the unior
soldier. Through all his varied career hs
thought nothing for yesterday, did his bes

FAVOR A NEW HOSPITAL

For Contagious Diseases-The Board
of Health Appoint a Committee q.
Urge Its Establishnent-ot Bust
ness.
The question of the consolidation of the
city and town governments was an impor-
tant factor In the discussions of the board
of health last evening. The question was
prscipitsted upon the board BY the reading
of Q Communication from representative
George II. Gum Of Milford, clerk of the
committee on cities and boroughs of the
general assembly, to the effect that the
hearing on the bill providing for the e.
tablishment of q hospital for contagious
diseases In this city would be held to-
morrow afternoon at . o'clock In Hart
ford.
DR.. Fleischner strongly advocated the
establishment of such hospital and
stated that there was pressing
need in this city of just such an
institution. He then cited two cases
which had come under his personal obser-
walton, one of young man suffering from
scarlet fever who was paying $25 psr week
for professional nurse to care for him
and would be only too glad of an oppor-
tunity to pay the same amount into the
funds of hospital for contagious diseases.
The other case was that of a young man
who was unable to pay for q professional
nurse, and for such cases as this the hos
pital was equally needed.
Dr.. Winchel also strongly favored the
establishment of such hospital and at the
same time the consolidation of the city and
town governments claiming that the latter
would materially aid the establishment of
such hospital. After q lengthy discus
sion q committee consisting of President
Winchell, Health Officer Wright and At
tornsy George w. Robinson was appointed
to 60 to Hartford and favor the bill.
Commissioners Winohell, Fieishner and
Grant were appointed q committee to
make out a report with reference to proba-
BILE expense and other details and report
at the next meeting of the board.
The matter of filling In the swamp hole
in the old bed of West river was referred
to a committee consisting of Dr. Fleiseh-
ner and Inspector Conlan to investigate
and report.
Health Officer Wright reported that con-
tsgious diseases were on the decline In the
city. For the month of March up to date
ffty-four cases of scarlet fever and Eve
deaths had been reported, nineteen cases
of diphtheris and one death, as against
cases and fifteen deaths of
scarlet fever and thirty-three cases and
two deaths of diphtherla in February.

ton, between the Chootaw militia and the
Jackson faction 1t WAS at first reported
that twenty men were killed and twenty
two wounded. Antlers is 1875 miles south

the election last August for chief. In
September before the council met four
Jones men were asssssinated by jackson
men. When the council met the United
States militia were there to preserve
order. Jones was declared chief. Twenty
two men were arrested charged with the
murders in September. and are now in
custody. Dick Look, a prominent mer-
chant of Antlers, was charged with melt
ing these murders, but was not arrested.
The militia was sent out to arrest him, and
others, with their friends rallied to their
support and the result was the battle Of
to-day. The latest dispatches say ten men
were killed. United States officers arrested
nineteen of the leaders of the militia at Z
