The court of common council at the regular meeting Monday evening took steps to oppose the petition of ex r Armstrong, asking for a reduc t the ferry rates, and also to a petition for a ferry franchise, provid- ed the present lessees made declara- tion that at the reduced fares the fer- ry_could not be profitably conducted. The def#ders of the ferry franchise can spend all the city’s money on hand and in prospect in preventing the pas- sage of what has been termed the Armstrong legislation, as no limit was placed in the vote as presented by La- fayette Rudd, chairman of the ferry committee of the court of common council. The vote authorizes Mr. Rudd and his fellow committeemen, Alder- men O'Leary and Prentis, and also Corporation Counsel Brennan and any other local talent he considers neces- sary, to go to Hartford and appear before the committee when hearing .is ziven the Armstrong ferry matters, and to oppose anything Mr. Armstrong or his attorneys might advocate. This vote will require the attend- ance of the ferry committeemen and the attorneys in Hartford many days and at different perio and the biils will be paid from the city treasury and weaken the miscellaneous fund unless special appropriation is made to meet the expenses and that can be done only in city meeting. Even the hold-over members who were support- ers of Mayor Armstrong during his acministration, and who passed him occasional bouquets, were enthusia tic in promotion of the vote that was submitted by the chairman of the fer- ry committee at the request of the lessees of the ferry franchise. The vote was adopted unanimously, although Alderman Benn was of opin- jon that it was up to the ferry com- mittee to defend its lease and not for to make the defense in the legislature. He believed the city should assist but not assume all the expense. Allerman Prentis, of the committee, reminded Alderman Benn that the city derived a revenue in rental from the ferry and it was the | duty of the representatives of the city to defend the there is in it. lease for the Selectman Kennerson, caretaker of Riverside park, but whe was removed during the Armstrong administration and reinstated upon the retirement of Mayor Armstrong, declared that it was time that the gang of soreheads who were meddling in ferry matters was knocked out, and he hoped that they would be killed off for good this time, and buried so deep that they would never make a chirp in antagon- ism of a well conducted ferry be- tween Groton and New London. He said that the gang had on a previous occasion spent $1,200 of the city's money in attacking the lessees of the franchise which was vested in the city of New London, and that the time was ripe to put an end to that sort of business. It was one of the fieri speeches made by the selectman since he became a member of t court of common council, Selectman Kennerson was made chairman of the committee on town affairs when Mayor Mahan made up the standing committees at the ginning of present administra hich gives hecognition to him a: first selectman. William White, den ocrat, and the minority member of the board, received a larger vote t y of the other selectmen and of that vote he believes he i to the honor of being the firs man, and he so declared at a previous meeting of the council; when Mayor Mahan said he would give the matter consideration, stating _that he made Selectman Kennerson chairman simply because he had experience in the of- fice and with no intention of wronging Selectman White, whom he compli- mented on the large vote received at | the polls. This matter was brought up at the December meeting, but the mayor had since then been sick and beén busy in other matters and had given the White matter no consideration. He =0 declared at the January meeting and as evidence of good faith he re- quested the city clerk to take the mat- ter before the corporation counsel for decision, and that the opinion of the counsellor be presented to the next mleeung of the court of common coun- cil. Mr. White received a phenomenal vote, much larger than any of his re- publican opponents, and it has been the custom for the selectman receiving the greater number of votes to act in the capacity of common consent, first selectman although the duties are not so mu ncreased as in towns where town and city governments are not consolidated. as in New London. Ar. White is of opinfon that this cus- tom would have prevailed In his case had he been a republican instead of a democrat, and for that reason the question is raised, Mr.. White believ- ing it to be a duty to himself and to those who voted for him. Simply because there were no funds able for the purchase of a new town clock did not feaze Alderman O’Leary, and he did not propose to have the matter pigeonholed indefi- nitely for that reason, as he is a be- liever of the old saw of where there’s a will there’s a way. ce the De- cember meeting, he realized more than ever that public sentiment and public necessity demanded a new clock in the steeple of the First Church of Christ to take the place of the old and wern-out timpeiece that hay tolled This rresce ption Knocks Rheumatism only logféal treatment for rheu- ¥is_through the blood.

The Connecticut Street _Railway company has given notice of its in- tention 'to extend its lines in New London by connecting with the track of the East Lyme road at the junction of Bank street and Jefferson avenue, | to run through the avenue, and thenc through Lincoln avenue or Asheraft street, and connecting with the rails of the company in Williams or Broad street. This fact was called to the at- tention of the court of common coun- cil by Alderman Downey, who advo- cated that the company be communi- | cated with and that effort be made to have the tracks extended the whole length of Jefferson avenue, and on be- tween the two cemeteries and connect with the rails of the company that now terminate at the second gate of | the Catholic cemeter: | The first plan is the same that was | advocated by Mayor Mahan during his first administration, and resulted in acceptance by the Connecticut com- | pany, provided certain changes be in |and the rails were carted along | igoposed line. Then Mayor Mahan s succeeded by Mayor Armstrong, and objection was made to changing | the grade of Lincoln avenue, as the Connecticut company required, it would naturally improve land owned by Mr. Mahan and which, in connec- | tion with change in grade, would be | done at the expense of the city. There was no chancé for a compro- mise and the rails were taken from the roadside and carted away. At that time, Jefferson avenue, just before reaching Cedar Grove cemeter was in no condition for trolley exter sion, the road being too narrow at Rocky Dale, with solid granite ledges in the roadway and on either side. Since then the ledges have been I | moved, the road widened and the road | bed macadamized, and is now even | better adapted for trolley extension than is either Lincoln avenue or Ash- craft road, and the trolley company would by this route connect djrect with the terminal of its own line, making the loop complete and the trackage would not be materially increas Aldermen Kirkland, Small and Mor- gan, of were requested to take the matter up with the prover officials of the Con- necicut company, and at the same time urge extension to Riverside park by way of Crystal avenu Generous response is being made to the appeal iseued by the New London | funds to provide for a salaried secre- tary who will matters for the advancement of the lcity, and also to establish s that could be util London Board of Trade and organizations whose object is the improvement of the city and it business and industrial int appeal was sent out by President Alex- ander J.

One Valued at $125 and Its Mates Mutilated in Their Pen in Milford. Miss Annie Caywood of Milford had five beautiful Angora cats, one worth at least $1 The cats have always been in a little home of their own, surrounded with a garden englosed with wire netting. The house and yard were as securely built as possible. Tuesday morning, just after daylight, Miss Caywood went to feed her pets. Contrary to custom, not one of them came to meet her. She then noticed that the wire netting around the little yard had been broken, the door broken and_just inside she found the bodies | of mutilation. Near by were tracks of dogs, and as Miss Caywood stepped back, too astonished and grieved at the awful death her pets had suffered, she noticed two dogs, a large one and a small one, slinking away. The.loss of the cats will amount to about $250. New Teachers in Berlin Schools. Supt. E. A. Parker of the Berlin schools has secured two new teach- jers.
