 It is understood that the company ordered it's special work in advance of the action Of the council, expecting that it's permit would be granted. It is hinted that the lever used with Mayor Lee was that if the company was not allowed to lay it's special work at this point that the Main street paving could not be put down for month yet.
 It is well known that the adminis- tration feels keen1y how supremely ridiculous it appears in it's heIplessness to enforce the small concessions that the city received when it conceded the harbor-car-barn grab for grooyed rails.

SENATE ADHERES
 TO ITS ACTION. Utilities Legislation Dies Between House and
 Senate
CONFERENCE NOT ASKED

Ry our Staff Correspondent.)
 Hartford, Aug. 1.-The Senate by practically unanimous vote adhered this morning to it's former action in passing the Barnum bill.
 While preferring the Chandler-Whi- ton bill, a number of the Senators would rather have the Barnum bill than no bill at all. It is noteworthy that the lobbyists employed by the telephone electric, gas light and wa ter monopolies of the State were as bitterly opposed to the Barnum bill as to the miHority bill. While in no way surrendering their convictions that the Barnum bill was sadly inadequate, not a few Senators who voted against the Barnum bill when it originally came into the Senate, would, if they could see it become a law rather than have no legislation upon the subject what soever. This explains the vote in the Senate today in adhering to the former action of that body in supporting the Barnum bill However no one asked for a committee of conference with the House and as there is no probability of the House receding from it's action of yesterday in indefinitely postponing the entire question, the matter will now die between the two houses.
