SIR EDWARD Is HONEST.
Prominent English Tory 0utspoken in His Ideas
on the Irish Situation.

London, Jan. 5.-Sir Edward Clarke. NJ
p. formerly solicitor-general who caused
much Indignation among the conserva
tives. some time ago. by declaring thai
Great Britain's claims in the VeneZuels
matter were untenable, has again made
a pronouncement that meets with much
opposition among the Tories.
Sir Edward. Monday delivered a speech
at Plymouth, which place he represents
in the House of Commons. In the course
OF his address he referred to the claim OF
the Irish that they are overtaxed to tn,
amount of about G2,C00O00 yearly. and tc
their demand that the taxation be re-
duced and restitution made of the excess
of taxes collected during the past 4,
years or so.
After referring to the commission or
financial relations between Great Britain
and Ireland. which recently submitted a
report favoring the Irish contention, Sir
Edward said he could not hesitate to ac-
cept the decisions of the matters of fact
of such strong commission.
This declaration is noteworthy as being
the first from an English Tory in sup
port of the report of the commission. As
body the English Tories are bitterly
opposed to the acceptance of the report
as final and. during the coming session
of Parliament, viii seek to obtain the
appointment of another commission 10
re-investigate the question.

That was the last seen of him and it
was believed that he had fallen from
the train, been run over and killed. A
special engine and car was at once
sent back over the route and a care

Tarried Too long at Lunch.

Tuesday morning a passenger alighted
at this station from train No. u. and
went into the Maine Central restaurant
where he ordered breakfast. He evi-
IDENTIFY believed he had time to spare
and he was surprised to hear Conductor
Richardson sing out, ''All aboard be-
fore half his breakfast was taken. The
stranger looked out of the window, saw
his train hauling out of the station and
then he went through the door. He
sprang for the train, miscalculated the
stair rails and caught the rear rail of
the next to the last car and the front
rail of the last car Then his feet went
out from under him. He went down
upon his knees and was being dragged
along between the car steps and the
platform, his hands slipping down the
hand rails by his weight. The Maine
Central is fortunate in having men in
it's employ that know how to do the
right thing at the right time. There
was not time to jump on board the
train and pull the bell cord, so Adolphe
Dutelle, a station baggage man who
was at work near at hand, seeing the
mans danger, sprang at once to his
assistance. 1t was not safe to attempt
to wrench the man from his hold on the
train, so Dutelle, in real professional
style leaped upon the steps of the now
rapidly moving car, passed one arm
around the endangered traveller, and in
the twinkling of an eye landed him on
the car platform and had jumped back
to the station platform. Dutelle says it
was case of the combination of
science and strength, very happy
combination for that traveller

man. the New York broker, for a writ
Of. habeas corpus in the cases in which
he was tried in the courts of the Dis
trict of Columbia on the charge of re-
frsing to answer questions put to him
by the senate sugar trust investigating
committee in 1891. The application was
made in Chapmans behalf by ex-Sena-
tor George F. Edmunds. and the court
issued an order granting leave to file
the petition. making it at the sugges-
ton of Mr.. Edmunds, returnable on
March % next.
1t was also ordered that in the mean
time Chapman be admitted to bail in
the sum of $1,000. In this petition
Chapman claims that the questions
which he declined to answer and for
which refusal he was indicted. tried and
found guilty, were questions relating
to his private business. whuch he was
not bound to answer because they were
made with the view of an unlawful
search into his private affairs in con-
traventio1 of the fourth amendment of
the federal constitution.
The court, in an opinion by Justice
Peckham. affirmed the decision of the
supreme court of Florida in the cases
of F. r. Osborne. who was arrested

violating (by acting agent for the South
ern Express company a state law re-
quiring license for the operation OF

borne brought the case to the supreme
court on the allegation that the law was
unconstitutional, but Justice Peckham
said in his opinion the law did not violate
any provision of the constitution.
An opinion rendered by Justice
Brewer in the case of William G. Ford
Jr. and Louis p. Levy, VS.. the Delta
Pine Land company. decided the owner
ship of 200 different tracts of land, in
Guiding ,16O acres in nine different
counties i'll the state of Mississippi. The
lands were acquired by the Pine Land
company upon tax sales for levee i'm
provements which the former owners
resisted on the ground that the lands
which had formerly been granted to
the Memphis, Holly Springs and Mo-
bile Railroad company were exempt,
The case was appealed from the circuit
court for the southern district of Mis-
sissippi by Ford and Levy. the decision
there having been averse to them.
This verdict was yesterday affirmed.

Annual Report Contains Many important
Recommendations


New Haven, Jan. 5.-Dr. c. A. Linds-
ley, secretary Of the state board OF
health, has forwarded his annual re-
port to Governor elect Cooke. This re-
port is interesting, because 1t makes
several important recommendations In
the way of legislation. The secretary
recommends a much more accurate
system throughout the state for regis
tration of deaths than now prevails;
it suggests legislation for more careful
supervision Of milk to prevent its IN
fection by germs Of disease. especially
OF typhoid fever: urges the prolonga
ton of the terms of health officers;
recommends the institution OF civil
service reform in sanitary administra-
ton; favors the extension of the plans
for the establishment of isolated hospi-
tails for contagious diseases. and the re-
moval Of all health officers from the
influences of politics.
1t is also stated that the state medi-
cal society will recommend that here
after examinations of the candidates
for practice in Connecticut be grouped
rather than held singly as heretofore.
Also that legislation be had compelling
an examination of all candidates for
medical practice instead of allowing
holders of diplomas from approved col
Icges to practice in the state without
an examination. as Is now the case.
The effect of this will be to place all
candidates upon the same level as re-
CARDS their claims and qualifications fol
medical practice in this state.
