THE LONG LOST WHIP RETURNED

A happy return on Christmas day to ex-mayor and ex-Chief Hendrick was after an absence of over sixteen years the presentation of a magnificent driv- ing whip, carved ivory handle and gold band, which was stolen from the whip socket of his buggy after the great pa- rade in celebration of the centennial of the charter of the city of New Fla ven on July 4, 1884.
 On that day, after the parade was dismissed, the chief hitched his horse under the shed in the rear of the City hall, provided for that purpose, and here for the first time missed his ele- gant whip which was presented to him by Chief Whipple of Westfeld, Mass, who was whip manufacturer The feelings of Chief Hendrick at the loss of such a present at such time can be better imagined than described. The newspapers announced the loss at the time, but failed to have it returned On last Christmas day gentleman of this city, who had seen the whip at a farmers house several miles from this city, saw Chief Hendricks name upon the gold band, handsomely engraved was the happy medium in discovering and returning the same as above to the happy and very much pleased own- CT in good condition after an absence of sixteen years

NO FURTHER INvESTIGATION

Of the Reported Autopsy on the Body
 of Bessie Van Lue.
 Assistant City Attorney Webb stated last night that he received yesterday an anonymous letter in which it was hint ed that an autopsy had been performed upon the body of Bessie Van Lue, which pr. Oliver T. Osborne was charged with unlawfully disinterring. MT. Webb said that the letter being anonymous he would not have paid any attention to it had it not been stated in the let ter that any further information de- sired by the city attorneys office could be obained at certain place named. He said that he caused inquiry to be made at the place mentioned but that no information was obtained there. MT. Webb said that he would do noth ing more in regard to the matter and that so far as he was concerned the case was closed.
 Coroner Mix said last night that MT. Webb had shown the letter to him, but that he had no authority to order a disinterment to see if an autopsy had been performed, nor had he any author ity to act in the matter.
 Precinct Detective Dunlap of the cen- tral police station yesterday afternoon visited the grave of the Van Lue girl in Westville cemetery. He found no evidence that the grave had been op- ened since it was filled up when the body was finally buried. He talked with the sexton, Deacon Wilfred Ford, and was told by the sexton that he did not think the grave had been opened.
 There will be no further official in vestigation of the matter to ascertain whether or not the autopsy was per- formed after the body was taken from Burwells undertaking rooms to be bur- jed by order of the coroner

A Notable Musical Event.

The new Christmas cantata, "The Word Made Flesh. by Prof Thomas C.. Shepard, just issued a short time
 ago, has met with instant recognition
 and favor, no doubt due to the author S well earned reputation as an artistic musical composer and it was sung at
 the Christmas services of no less than
 twenty churches in this state, being thus given its initial production sim ultaneously in many parts of the state and by the best choirs. This Is in it. self notable tribute to the composer
 and must be very gratifying to him.
 while the reception of the cantata was everywhere equally gratifying. Among the choirs which produced 1t were s. Clark Lords choir. Hartford, and the South church choir Bridgeport which are among the leading choirs of the state, one of the finest choirs in Meri- den, the choir of Bristol Congregational church, the choir of leading Water bury church, one in Naugatuck, and many others The production of the cantata at the Church of the Redeemer
 where MT Shepard is organist and mu- sical director, was so marked a success as to partake of the nature of tri- umph and MT. Shepard was showered with congratulations after the service. The people of the church were delight ed, pronouncing it with one accord one of the finest musical services ever giv- en here. In the production of the can tata the full choir of twelve salaried sngers-three quartets-took part. The first quartet is composed of Mrs. s. s. Sanford, soprano Miss Marguerite Rockwell contralto: Frank R. Lang- dale, tenor and Riley F, Phillips, bass, whose names are a guarantee of artistic work. and the whole choir ranks as one of the finest in the state. A special and notable addition to the music was the highly artistic violin playing of Miss Rebecca Wilder Holmes, who finished her musical studies three or four years ago in Europe with Joachim, returning then to this country, since which she has been giving concerts and partici- patng in musical festivals. She was of course a distinguished acquisition to the occasion and assisted in the pro- duction of the cantata, while at the morning service also she delightfully."- rendered several obligata solos. A de- lightful feature of the services also was the piano playing of an accomplished New Haven young lady, Miss Grace D. Porter. daughter of Joseph Porter of Whitney avenue, who Is born artist and whose work is very artistic and significant of natural artistic talent which has been carefully cultivated She has never appeared professionally but has favored the Church of the Re- deemer of which her father is a prom inent member, by assisting on various special occasions there. Louis Felsberg assisted with tympani at the evening service. Altogether the occasion was notable musical event of the year in this city. MT. Shepard's cantata was also very finely produced by the Daven- port church, D. A. Jones musical direc- tor. Miss Holmes, above spoken of, is related to the distinguished Holmes and Wilder families of Boston.

YAIE"S NEW BUILDINGS.

MT Stokes secretary of the Yale cor poration, requests the publication of the following:
 'The report sent out from New Ha- ven Tuesday night to the effect that $750000 has been given by two New York women for the new Yale admnis- tration building Is erroneous. This re- port is evidently due to a confusion be- tween the new bcentennial buildings and the administration building.

IN AND ABOUT THE COURTS
IMPORTANT GUN PATENT CASE ON
 IN UNITED STATES COURT.
4 m merican Ordnance Company Sues

 Mills Hands Down Decision i'm Suit or HIandamus-Receiver McCuaker's Re-
port--City Court Cases.

The suit of the American Ordnance company of Bridgeport against the Driggs, Seabury company of Derby, was placed on trial before Judge Townsend in the United States court yesterday An infringement on a device for simpllfy- ing the construction of rapid fire guns is alleged in the suit, The patent ln question was granted to Robert Brooke Dashiell of the United States navy and he assigned it to the Driggs Ordnance company. Afterward 1t was assigned The suit is an important one as some of the best designs for making breech- loading guns are involved.
 Driggs, of the Driggs Ordnance company, to which the patent was first assigned, is now a member of the de- fendant corporation. On this account complainant alleges estoppel because the patent in suit was formerly pur- chased by company one of whose otii- cers at the time of the said purchase has since become an officer and stock holder in the defendant corporation; and also because another stockholdel, in the defendant corporation, was also stockholder in the purchasing com pany and was cognizant of this pur- chase
 The first two claims, alleged to be in- fringed, are for extrator mechanism for removing the empty cartridge case af- ter the gun has been fred or for with drawing the dummy cartridge case with projectile attached, in case of a hang (. I h. s1 t- ApA the gun after it has been loaded.
 Another claim refers to a particular form of breech block in combination with other well known clements and another claim refers to particular construction of the hinged carrier or shutter, which closes the rear face of the breech of the gun and on which the breech block is mounted.

Gilhuly and MT. Bohan must file with the clerk of the superior court statement as to what each claims and as to what proportion of the as- sets, after all bills are paid, and all expenses and services of the receiver deducted, each asks for After this is done hearing must be held on or be fore January 10, 1900. After due hear ing of the facts the court will pass up- on the points in dispute.

Corporation Counsel Robertson won a signal victory yesterday in decisoin handed down by Judge Elmer of the superior court in the case of Edward J. Maroney against Alexander Troup, ct al. This was the mandamus suit which involved the title and emoluments of the official position known as engineer of the road roller, from which place Maroney was displaced by Director Troup and James E. Mills appointed in his stead. Lawyers Stoddard and Good hart instituted the mandamus suit for Maroney and another one for James White, the former assistant superin- tendent of streets, who had been re- placed by the appointment of George F. Ives, who afterwards resigned.
 A companion case was the injunction suit brought by Sidney H. Dawson, a citizen and taxpayer, restraining Con troller Rowe from paying salaries to the new appointees. All these cases stand or fall together, and the decision of Judge Elmer in overruling the demur- Ter of Lawyers Stoddard and Goodhart to the return made by Corporation Counsel Robertson in the Maroney case is decisive of all, and the local civil service regulations as invoked by the relators in these cases have availed them nothing, but in fact and law, has been their own undoing. The sum and substance of Judge Elmers decision is that Maroney was not appointed as prescribed by the civil service regula- tons and that therefore he cannot h. yoke the aid of the civil service laws to keep an office 10 which he had been appointed contrary to law. And the corporation counsel wins for another reason, for Judge Elmer says under the facts as admitted by the answer, Maro- ney had no remedy by writ of manda-
 olla anyway
