The End of Long Siege of Sickness
Came Yesterday.

After more than year of sickness
and realizing full well all the time
that he could never recover, death yes
terday morning came to the relief Of
L. a. Clark at his home east of Tempe.
Mr. Clark has been i'll for a long
time. The greater part of last summer
he spent in California taking treat
ment but at the close of the treat
ment his attending physician gave
him no encouragement and he return
ed TO Tempe to arrange matters of
business in anticipation of death. His
business affairs were only closed up
the first of this week, just a few days
before the end. Though knowing full
well that he could never recover, Mr..
Clark was cheerful to the end.
He came TO Tempe about four years
ago from Colorado and for some time
conducted the Model Dairy here and in
that capacity came in contact with al
most every family in town. He was
well known and was
highly regarded by all. He was a
member of the Elks lodge and the
order of WOrkmen, carrying two
thousand dollars insurance in the lat
ter lodge. The funeral will be held
afternoon at two o'clock, the
services being conducted by Rev. J. c.
Chaplin of the Baptist church and I'M
der the auspices of the Elks. The in
terment will be made in the Double
Butte cemetery.

as to discuss the personnel of a possi- ble commission in lunacy. He said that he did not wish to appoint any alienists who had been consulted in the case by either side, and desired to be given the names of every doctor so consulted. It was agreed that both sides should submit affidavits to-mor- row.
 When the trial adjourned, Messrs, Hartridge and O'Reilly, of Thaw's counsel, professed the greatest pleas ure over the turn of affairs.
 "The district attorney has acknowl- edged himself beaten" said MT. Hart ridge, i've can combat the lunacy com mission. In the meantime the district attorney has acknowledged that he be- lieves Thaw was insane when he shot Stanford White. That ought to give us an acquittal'
 District Attorney Jerome was mani festly pleased with the idea of com mission. He immediately set to work preparing affidayits, and was busy in his office until after 6 o'clock. He will be able to place before Justice Fitz- gerald all the testimony he was unable to get before the jury.
 Mr. Delmas declined to make any definite statement He merely said that it had been agreed that when the case reached the stage which develop cd to-day, MT. Gleason should take charge" He said, of course he would still be connected with the case.

A SPECIAL MESSAGE
GOVERNOR WOODRUFF SENDS
 ONE TO THE LEGISLATURE.

Recommends Commission to Group All
 Agricultural Bodies of the State and
 Fix Appropriation for College at
 Storrs.
 Hartford. March 20.-7A special mes sage was sent to the general assembly by Governor Woodruff to-day asking for authority to appoint a commission of five to consider the problem of uni flying, co-ordnating and collecting the various agricultural bodies of the state, to fix the appropriations for the Con necticut Agricultural college at Storrs, and to consider the question of the re- moVal of the college to a location near CT the center of population. At present the college. is on a farm in Mansfield, in northwestern Connecticut, distinctly removed from transportation lines. Originally it was a model farm given by MT. Storrs for use of boys in the neighborhood, who wished to learn practical farming. During the last twenty-five years the general assembly has been making grants of money, and the farm has taken on the importance of state agricultural college although the long standing contention is that it is not state institution. The congress sional grant of money to the state for agricultural purposes some years ago was the basis of suit of the. Sheffield Scientific school of Yale university i against the state resulting in a con- promise payment of $125,O00 to the plaintiff, and the removal from that school to the Storrs school of the stu dents whose tuition was paid by the state out of. the congressional grant, and relieving the Sheffield Scientific school of all obligations to the state in this respect. At Storrs, at present, there are 11O students, young men and young women the latter being taught domestic science
 Governor Woodruff has found that numerous agricultural societies are be- ing supported by the state, the appro- ! priations going for payment of clerical ' expenses with little expenditure for sci entific improvement of crops. An in- quiry into the matter was made two years ago by the legislative committee headed by Senator Barney. Governor Woodruff believes all these societies should be grouped, and, if supported by the state, the money appropriated should be used to better the quality of the product of the soil.
 The governors message covers the following: Office of state dairy com missioner, state board of agriculture board of control of the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment station, com. missioner of domestic animals, Con- necticut Agricultural college and Ex- perimest station, State Agricultural so. ciety, Connecticut Dairyman's associa-

ton, Connecticut Pomological society," and Connecticut Breeders association.
 Before the committee on appropria- tions is a bill introduced by Senator Sumner of Mansfield for an appropri- alton of $50,OO0 for the agricultural col lege, and before the committee on agri- culture the following bills: For appro- priations for horticultural house and greenhouses at Storrs; appropriating $2,500 for a sewage filtration plant there; $S,5O0 for disseminating informa-' tion about better farming by special train; S1,5OO for Pomological society; amendment to section 1894, so the grad uates of the agricultural college may choose two trustees of the college; act to establish a model farm in Fairfield county; $1,OOO for expense of Connecti- cut Poultrymen's assoeiaton; and sey- eral other bills relating in a general way to agricultural matters.

be submitted and it is expected to close the hearing as far as they are concerned. The case will then be open for a few days, and after the duration it is expected the commissioners will give thetr finding. Whichever way the decision is rendered it is thought an appeal will be taken, Much testimony pro and con has been given and among ie being a deposition of Douglas Smith, the defaulting teller of the National Tradesmens bank of New Haven, who is now serving a term in Wethersfield. The bank has claim of $50,000 against the estate. Other minor claims will bring the amount in litigation to about $65, COCO or S0,0OO. The estate was rep resented as being insolvent, with as sets of about $1S,O0O. Lawyer w. J, Malone of Bristol is attorney for the Yeomans estate.
