 Visit.
Especial to The Tfmes.)

teams owned by First Selectnan James Lally and driven by John Homa, was run into by one of the Connecticut Co. trolley cars, while on Barnum avenue, early yesterday morning, with the result that con siderable damage was done to the team. The car was going at a good rate of speed and the collision was of such force that it was thrown a number Of feet to one side of the road.
 Both of the horses were knocked down and Homa, the driver, saved himself from serious injury by jump Ing. After the collision Homa ran to the horses and held them until help to extricate them from the wreckage arrived. One of the horses was so badly frightened that i. was impossible to leave him alone Tor a second or he would run
 This teL- was at work carting the dirt taken out of the excavations for the new concrete ro;u on Barnurn avenue and was g&1g toward Bridgeport at the time. The acci- dent happened just over the top of Franklin Hill and witnesses state that the motorman of the car was to blame as he was running his car at too great speed to insure his ability to stop it in time to avoid a coIlis- ion.
 This Is the fourth time in six years that Lally has suffered damage to his teams by being run into by trolley cars and he stated yesterday morning that after this he was going to insist that the Connecticut Co. pay the damages as the accidents were be- coming altogether too frequent.
 With the fast running of the troll ley cars on Barnu1n avenue it is surprise to a great many that there are not more accidents on that thor oughfare. From the top of Frank lin Hill to the city line there is con- siderable of a grade and many of the cars run down the hill at a reckless speed.
