IN AND ABOUT THE COURTS
THE HOUGH CASE VAS CONCLUDED
 YESTERDAY.
Addresses to the Jury Up to the Close of Anderson sued-Cases in City Court.

The reports of the cases of Francis G. Colligan and Mrs. Rathbun will be found in another column.
 All the testimony in the Hough case was in yesterday afternoon shortly af- ter the opening of court, and the great CT part of the afternoon was taken up with the arguments of the attorneys for both sides. The jury listened for hours to the addresses of the lawyers, and at o'clock court was adjourned until this morning.
 The court room yesterday afternoon was not large enough to hold the big crowd that thronged there, interested in the case, and many were obliged to stand up during the hearing. Hamden was again well represented by many of the prominent people of the town.
 feature of the testimony offered by the defense was the calling of the plaintiffs mother to the state to testify as to whether her husband was crazy or not; also her husbands mother. The court excluded an attempt to put in record from a New York institution.
 The direct examination of the Rev. Mr. Clarke was proceeded with soon af- ter 10 o'clock. MT. Newton for the de- fense offered in evidence the record of the meeting of the Hamden school oJ Daoapohov 1908 At this meeting only Cooke and Clarke were present, and it was shown that Miss Williams capabilities as teacher were acceptable.
 For half an hour or more the time of the court was spent in wrangling over the admission as evidence of several entries in the ledger kept by the school visitors of the town of Hamden.
 MT. Clarke denied to MT. Newton that he told Miss Hough on the occasion of his visit to the school on March g, the date of the inouisition at the school house, that her conduct on the ice was improper and that he said he'd make the matter concerning her public un- less she resigned Cooke, another of the defendants, the witness said, made no threat of this sort.
 Rev. MT. Clarke told of a visit to a local newspaper office and of con versation he had had with the manag- ing editor concerning Miss Hough.
 Mrs. Jessie l.. Hough was called by Mr. Goodhart. The witness stated that William c. Hough was her husband and the father of the plaintiff. And that he was confined at Middletown in 1896. He was about forty years old
 Where Is he now?"
 T don't know"
 How long was he in Middletown?"
 About three weeks"
 MT. Goodhart then offered record fromsa New York institution which con- cerned Mr. Hough, which Judge Wheel | CT promptly excluded.
 Here the defense rested its case.
 MT. Maher of the Register and John B. Andrews were the next witnesses
 MT. Andrews testified that he never told Mrs. Sereno Cooke, as was testified Tuesday, that Miss Hough "hollered" at every man that went by.
 The plaintiff then rested his case.
 The arguments followed at 1:30 | o'clock, MT. Elliot opening for the plain tiff, he being followed by MT Goodhart and MT. Newton, for the defense. The | closing was by MT. Chase.

Congrcssmen Think the A. R. Has
 Had Enough.


 Age-Hera1d Bureau 500 14th St., N. ", Washington. February 1G-(special)-' The recent speech of Commander in Chief Rasseur of the Grand Army of the Republic, in which he intimated that the President had shown himself unfriendly to pension legislation and that if the Re- publican party did not listen to the de- mands of the G. A. R. trouble would come to them, has not been very well re- ceiyed in Washington. The feeling Is that the G. A. R., through it's officers and spokesmen. shows too great tendency to dictate to Congress No one in public life regrets the generosity with which the Government has treated the old soldiers nor begrudges the billions of dollars that have been expended in pensions, but when pension payments require about Sl5o,e9e,G30 a year and private pension bills are being passed each session of Congress, almost without number and when the effort of the Pension Bureau is to give every deserving old soldier pension, the feeling grows that the friends of the G. A. R. have no ground for complaint. As one old soldier, now in public life, whose record is unsurpassed, said today: My old comrades of the G. A. R. are really too exacting. The Gov ernment has been generous tothe old sol diers and proposes to be so hereafter, but if the officers of the G. A. R. pro- pose to dictate to Congress they may be unpleaasantly surprised. Government expenditures are heavy enough already.
 ''The real trouble is that the Govern ment is trying to prevent the pension at torneys from placing the names of men who do not deserve pension on the rolls and because they do not succeed the de- nuneiation Of those in authority follows. l am willing to do what l can for the old soldiers, but 1 do not wish to be dictated to- ALBERT HALSTEAD
