GOV. BALDWiN'S REASON
FOR CUTTING CAMP.
Considered 1t Would Detract from the
Purpose of the Encampment.

For the first time in the history of
state encampments, the governor of
Connecticut, commander in chief of the
militia, did not visit the Mantle camp
ground Friday. Although Friday is al
ways set aside as Governors day, it
was really not observed as such Friday
although politicians gathering there
gave it much of the old time SAVIOR.
Governor Baldwin Friday gave this
explanation why he has not attended
the encampment at Mantle
''On consultation with the military
authorities Governor Baldwin decided
to follow their advice and not be pres
ent at any camp of instruction this
summer. 1t was the opinion of the
permanent staff that a visit of the
governor would tend to distract the
men from their duties of instruction
and discipline. OF course. if he went to
one of the regimental encampments he
would naturally have gone to the other
in its turn. and it was thought best 10
have the same rule for both. and
while enjoyable both to him and them
it occupied valuable time which would
be better used with regular work"

POLICE WOULD LIKE
HOT WEATHER CLOTHING.
Think Bridgeport Idea Good One,
With Heavier Coats for Winter.

Some of the Norwich policemen who
suffered uring the recent hot spell be-
cause of the uniform and head gear
which the regulations compel them to
wea have been discussing this week
the report that in Bridgeport an effort
was on foot to allow the policemen to
wear a light and comfortable cap, in
stead of the heavy helmet, and thin
summer coat instead of the close fit
ting coat which they are expected to
keep buttoned up to the chin.
Several of the public guardians said
they hoped tina some such agitation as
was stirred up in Bridgeport might be
begun here, and one man suggested
that it might go even further than
that. for the policemans winter uni
form was not a thing of joy on a cold
winter night, he claimed, and he
thought that the man on the beat
should be allowed the privilege of
wearing an overcoat that would keep
him warm better than the regulation
uniform does.

APPEAL TAKEN ON
OLD LYME BRIDGE AWARD.
Petitioner Asks to Have New Com
mittee Named to Assess Damages
and Reject Present Report.

The petitioner in the case of state
of Connecticut VS.. Nathaniel c. Hail
and John A. Dewolfe has objected to
the report of the committee concerninz;
the damages for land to the approach
to the Old Lyme and Old Saybrook
bridge and asked that it be rejecte
and a new committee be named to as
sess damages.
It is claimed that the committee has
not described a tract Of land in their
more is allowed for the Hall land than
Mr.. Hall valued it at, and tha
meadow land, peach orchard and a
dwelling entirely unaffected We're al
lowed for in the assessment. 1t is
claimed that more was allowed for
fences and their maintenance than for
the least expensive legal fence. and ii
was not claimed by the respondent thai
fences would be necessary for enclosing
cattle. There was an assessment of
damages for the construction of a
trolley road and power cable past the
property. but no allowance made for
the benefit from same.
It is claimed that the damages are
excessive and against the evidence and
it does not appear from the report
whether the amount to be paid Mr..
Hall is $3.50 or S2,400. Dana ges were
also assessed for damage to crops from
the dust from the highway, to a point
five rods from the highway, but there
was no evidence that the property was
used for farming. Mr.. Hall is also
allowed damages because he will have
to drive his cattle across a highway,
whereas he now drives his cattle
through the highway in going to and
from those parts of his lands used by
cattle.
This matter will come before the
adjourned session of the civil superior
court at New London this morning.
when several other matters were put
over for hearings on motions. Court
will come in there at 10 o'clock.

In daily operation at the Stony Brook
reservoir is the galloway across the
basin where the dam is to be built.
The large buckets are filed with rock
and gravel and hoisted out of the way
in quick time so that excellent prog
ress is being made on the excavation
for the corewal1 ditch. There is being
found an excellent foundation for the
wall, so the engineer claims, the gravel
being so hard that the picks have little
effect upon it, and there is Also not d
little rock foundation found So fast

point where it was last year at this
