"SAM" HARRIS DIES SUDDENLY
 IN CATSKILLS
Prominent Merchant Sue cumbs While Trying to Recover His Health in the Mountains.

Samuel Harris, the Main street clothing man, died this morning at Tattersville. N. Y, where he was stay ing in the mountains for the purpose of regaining his health. His friends in this city had expected that he would come back to them in a. few weeks much improved in his condition, after his several months illness at his home in this city with nephritis. The de- ceased, who was about 43 years of age, was one of the best known men in the state, being prominent in fraternal circles. and a keen lover of good sport.
 He was a native of New York city and came here over 20 years ago and engaged in the clothing business for several years, but was unsuccessful in the end. He closed his business here and went to New York state where he remained until about five years ago when he returned to the city whose people he liked best and reopened a store. This time he had been wonder fully successful and up to the time of his sickness, early in the spring, he had been enjoying prosperity as he well deserved after his several years experience here in establishing himself.
 The first intelligence of his death came at noon when Albert Mccarthy clerk of the clothing store received a telegram.
 The deceased was a native of New York city and he married a sister of Joe Welch, the actor. His wife died several years ago leaving three chill dren.
 The three children who are Silvia, aged IA; Leroy, aged F, and Delmore, aged 8 years, have lived with MT. Harris sister, Mrs. Louise Cowan, in Hartford since the death of their moth- CT. He has another sister. Mrs. Ar thur Penover, of Bensonhurst, N.' Y., and three brothers, Ben Harris, a thea trical manager at Atlantic City, and Louis and Jesse of New York city.
 For many years the deceased had been a. member of Bridgeport Lodge, B. P. O. E., and a member of Samuel H. Harris Lodge I. O. O. F. He was also connected with the Free Sons of Israel, one of the leading Jewish or ganizations in America, as we'll as a member of the Congregation of Bnai Israel.
 When the deceased first came to the host of friends who will miss him, he attracted attention first by his unique advertising. He was a great lover of baseball and whenever the op- portunity offered itself he always went to New York to see the Giants play. He enjoyed good health until last spring when he was attacked with kid ney trouble. For several weeks he hovered between life and death and a month ago it was with great surprise his friends saw him on the street again greatly weakened by his sickness, but determined to regain his health.
 Arrangements will be made to hold the funeral in New York city.

Their latest victim is Nathan Edison, a tailor, who was relieved of $355 the day before yesterday. At that time stranger called at Edison's shop representing himself to be the owner of large jew elry stores in Hartford and New Ha- ven with the intention of buying the store of H. S. Rood in this place. He asked Edison if he could lodge him over night saying he objected to stay ing at public houses. Edison agreed and the next morning at the strang- CTS request started for Rood's store to introduce the prospective buyer. On their way they were accosted by man who addressed them in Polish, asking where he could find the near, est pawnshop and displaying large quantity of jewelry which he said he had stolen in Canada and was anxious to dispose of it immediately. Edison's friend seemed anxious to buy it but as he only had $S5 in cash and the stranger wanted $40 Edison kindly furnished the balance Whereupon the men disappeared and the tailor dis covered that his purchase was worth approximately g.

TUBERCULIN CATTLE
 ARE PROHIBITED
Senator Barnes, Also a Far mer, Opposes Bill, Saying that therTest is of No Value.
Especial from United Press.


 Hartford, July 1.-The Senate to- day reversed the, action of the House on reducing the Hartford to Man chester trolley fare to five cents, ac- cept1ng the unfavorable report of the majority of the railroad committee. This matter didn't produce as long a debate in the Senate as it did in the House but there were some spirited passages in it. Much longer was the discussion on the bill prohibiting the importation of cattle which have not proven by test to be free from tuber- culos1s The majority report of the committee on agriculture was favor able and Senator Stiles made a brave light for the passage of the measure. Senator Alsop who is a breeder of fine cattle, supported him with splendid statement of the situation in regard to tuberculin tests on the value of which the whole situation affecting this bill hanged. He answered many questions and showed not only a great familiar ity with the subject but the ability to put the technical matter in very plain language. Senator Barnes who is also a farmer and raiser of cattle opposed the bill said it was his belief the tuberculin test was of no value. After talking this question back and forth for a long time. the Senate finally rejected the bill in concurrence with the House by a vote of IS to 12.
 Disagreeing action developed on the bill permitting women to vote on the license question and also on that pro- viding that wild hares and rabbits may be killed only with ferrets and these matters were tabled.
 There was a favorable report on the measure abolishing a state barbers' commission. In concurrence with the Senate the House passed the Defen- ders' Monunient Association resolu- tion and took all authority over this monument away from the state com mission on sculpture
