The committee on judicial nomina
tons reported favorably on the nomi-
nations of Judge James Bishop and
Deputy Judge Edwin c. Dow for the
city of New Haven.
When the resolution was passed by
the senate enacting the charter for the
Central Electric Railway company was
taken up for concurrence there was no
objection made and the house prompt
ly concurred, under the suspension of
the rules When the next resolution in
cooperating the Torrington and VIM
chester Electric Railway company came
up Mr.. Calkins of East Lyme said that
the action of the house seemed hasty
lie was not opposed to the bill, but he
did not see why there should be so
much haste. No one arose to explain
why the bill should be passed imme-
diately. and the motion to suspend the
rules was lost.
Mr.. Calkins then moved to recon-
slider the motion by which the first res
olution enacting the charter of the
Central Electric railway was passed.
He thought the resolution all right but
he wanted time to consider, There was
a small attendance in the house.
Mr.. Parker of New Britain explained
that the action which the house had
taken was in accordance with the re-
mort of the committee on railroads, and
at the request Of the incorporators, had
agreed to go to the superior court to
be exempted from the provisions of the
parallel clause" Should they be de-
feated, then they wished TO come back
to the legislature.
Mr.. Frisby of Pennington said there
should be no delay as the matter was
important.
Mr.. Grffing said that he represented
constituency that wanted the road
asked for built Immediately.
Mr.. Calkns reiterated his objections
to the suspension of the rules. He did
not object to the resolution, and would
probably vote for it.
Mr.. Beckwith thought no harm could
come of delay for one day.
The vote on the suspension of the
rules was declared in the affirmative.
Mr.. Calkins doubted. A rising vote
was then taken aud it was found that
"a voted yea, and 80 nay.
Does the gentleman withdraw his
doubt?" asked Speaker Barbour.
Mr.. Calkins shook his head mo"
"The vote shows no quorum, and 7
adjourn the house till to-morroy at 10: 80
o'clock" announced the speaker.
The matter will come up this morn
ing. There seemed to be no significance
in the vote taken, and the charter will
proba bly, go through to-day.
