Company L Met With a Warm Recep-
ton.
South Norwalk March 23.-Although
it was approaching II o'clock when the
special train bearing the members of
Company r. home from Savannah
reached Norwalk last night, there was
great crowd of their relatives and
friends at the station, where they had
remained since early evening. The long
and vexatious delay had robbed the oc-
casion of considerable of its enthusiasm,
but the returning soldiers were escorted
to the armory amid the booming of
cannon and the glare of red fire by the
members of Company D, c. N. G., and
the local fire department, under COM
mand of General Frost.
Here an elaborate supper had been
spread since early morning, awaiting
the coming troopers, who ate with zest.
A jollflcation followed and continued
until after midnight.

THE HERRING
Regarding the Law and Order League
Charter.


Charter.
To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
Having been present at the hearing
on Wednesday on the petition for the
repeal of the Law and Order league
charter at Hartford, / wish to express
indignation at some statements in this
evenings Register on the matter After
the applause when Attorney Danaher
called Secretary Thrasher a liar the ex-
pressions of appreciation were all for
the other side. Mr.. Thrasher did not
display uneasiness." He met and con-
tradicted with proof every statement of
the opposition, and had those in attend
ance with him for the balance of the
afternoon. Mr., McClair who made no
speech, only answering questions, in
stead of being hammered" did not get
even the ordinary display of dissent.
The Register fails to even allude to the
secretary's account Of the Stamford and
Greenwich gambling cases, in which
twenty-five men were arrested and ST.
900 in forfeited bonds paid to the state.
The complimentary letters of Governor
Coffin and Attorney Fessenden concern
ing that affair are not mentioned. With
out any display of temper Messrs Dan
aher and Tyler were questioned until
they sat down completely at their wits
end The Register owes the league an
apology. w.
