A New York writer to the Bulletin says: Financial affairs in New York are undergoing another process of in- flation. The general prosperity of bus- iness and the large accumulations of savings among the masses, encourage, indeed, necessitate investment in some way and the sharks of Wall street lose no opportunity for drawing these out- side investors into their snares. No- body here pretends that the present high prices of securities are legitimate or that they can end otherwise than disastrously when matters resume their normal conditions. Jan. 19, 1864—The town of Mansfield has filled its quota. The new mill at Eagleville is in op- eration, manufacturing a good quantity of flax cotton. Five recruits were credited to the Third District Monday, three of whom were from Norwich. Gen. Harland Home. Bris. Gen. Edward Harland arrived at his home in this town on Saturday. Capt. Chas. J. Arms and Capt. Alfred Goddard of this town, members of his staff also arrived home on Saturday. William H. Hamilton, formerly em- ploved in this office, but now a mem- ber of Co. C., Eighteenth regiment, ar- rived home on Saturday on a short furlough. Col. Allen Had a Fall. On Monday morning Col. Ethan Allen was hoisting himself up by the tackle at his new mill in Lisbon (Hanover Society) when the rope broke and he fell nearly the whole height of the building. He struck upon his feet, breaking. both ankles. United States Marshal. Jan. 20, 1864—Henry Hammond of Killingly was confirmed by the Senate on Monday as United States marshal for Connecticut. January Thaw and Freshet. Early Tuesday morning the which has been ice-bound for river weeks gave evidence of breaking up after the warm drizzly rain merchants on of Monday and ‘Water and Commerce streets commenced to evacuate the lower floors of their stores. In some cases they were successful in removing their goods before the water reached them, but in very many the value of their merchandise was affected by the flood. Chapman & Smith, for in- stance, can quote corn both in store and afloat. Charles Osgood & Co. re- port oils and paints buoyant with an upward tendency; Breed, Prentice & Co. register light sales with hardware heavy and under water; Nash, Brew- ster & Co. have a very large assort- ment of lumber in the stream and very active. The rise of water was the greatest Commerce street was only available for small boats, Central Wharf was submerged, great cakes of ice blocked the Norwich & Worcester R. R. track below the depot and the New London Northern track near the rolling mill. The mills at Greeneville are all still and numerous pigs and hens bivonack- ed along the banks of the Shetucket will report for duty at New London or Iishers Isiand. Towns Rescind Former Votes. The town of Montville voted by a majority of five to one to reject the former vote to pay $300 to each person of the town draited into the United State’s service. The town of Brooklyn voted to res- cind a vote passed last October, giving $100 to every man, volunteer or drafted, who should be mustered into the United state’s service. Fourteen recruits for Norwich, the entire number accepted were received at the provost marshal’s office on Tues- day., $47,832 In Tax. The tax assessed in the Third Dis- trict (New ILondon and Windham counties) for the month of December 1863 was $47,832.98. The preceding year for the same month it was 3$33,- 434.06. For the four months ending December 31, 1863 it was $193,679.14, an increase of $71,187,17 over the same period in 1862. Jan. 21, 1864—Seventeen recruits were sworn in at the provost marshal's office on Wednesday, all to the credit of Norwich. Money received by the Soldiers' Aid is acknowledged as follows: Central Baptist church, $40.83; Christ church Thanksgiving Day, $75.75; Montville Congregational church Thanksgiving Day $8.80; Groton Soldiers’ Aid $10; Thompson Soldiers” .Aid $22.95; and from Norwich friend $145. Norwich Quota Filled. Jan. 22, 1864—Sixteen men were re- ceived at the provost marshal's office on Thursday and accredited to Nor- wich, filling the town's quota on the present cail. We doubt not that en- listments will continue, the extra num- ber of men to count on another call, if there should be ome. Capt. J. L. Spalding of this city has been appointed lieutenant in the 29th Connecticut (colored) troops. Brig. Gen. Henry W. Birge arrived in town yesterday from New Orlean: The number of marriages in London for the past year is 102. ber of deaths 172. Putnam Will Pay Drafted Men. The town of Putnam reaffirmed its vote to pay $150 to drafted men who should go into the army-or furnish a substitute. There are four to be paid. The town of Pomfret voted not tao confirm the vote passed last October, giving $300 to every drafted man who should be accepted. Jan. 23, 1864.—Willimantic wants ten men to fill her quota. The Willimantic Journal says a schoolhouse is to be built on the Wil- iiam's lot and the present house and lot is to be offered to the linen com- pany for $2,600. Rev. A. T. Bingham of Montville received a donation of $30 in money and other valuables worth $30 from his parishioners last Thursday evening. 598 Recruits For This District. Up to Friday night 598 recruits have been received at the provost marshal's office for this district—New London and Windham counties. ew Num- SUED FOR SUPPORT OF HIS FATHER Town of Norwich Begins Legal Action Against C.

He is sur- vived by two sons and four daugh- ters. His wife, not long ago, was taken ill on a train at New Britain, and died in the railroad station there. Judge Etheridge was born at Montville, March 21, 1858, and was admitted to the Hartford county bar in 1880. He has been judge of probate since 1891, town clerk since 1892 and county health officer for Litchfield county for about 18 years. He was a delegate to the constitutional conven- tion in 1802 and represented the town in the general assembly at the 1811 session, serving while in the legisla- ture as a house member of the judi- ciary committee. He was president of the Thomaston savings bank, publisher of the Thom- aston Express since 1892 and a member of the Odd Fellows and the Methodist Episcopal church, - NEW LONDON CONTRACTOR FELL IN PARK Irvin U. Lyon in Serious Condition from a Fractured Skull. Irvin U. Lyon, a well known New London contractor and builder, lies at the point of death at Memorial hos- pital in that city with a fractured skull, the result of a fall in Willlams Memorial park about 9 o’clock Friday morning. For some time Mr, Lyon had com- plained of pain around the heart, es- pecially when ascending a grade. Pre- sumably in his weakened condition after an attack of bronchitis, this was accentuated and when he attempted to walk up the slope in the park the effort proved too great for him. Ex- Mayor Cyrus G. Beckwith saw him reel and fall heavily to the frozen ground and hurried to his side. Mr. Ly was unconscious and bleeding pro; lv from a wound at the base of the skull. He was at once taken to the hospital, Notified of Cousin's Death. Deputy Sheriff Manuel J. Martin of New London was notified by telegraph of the death of a cousin, Thomas Mar- tin, in Boston.

The president's roseate and optimis- tic views of the future, as expressed in his message, read well, and we will all hope that he will prove to have a stronger than normal vision, but up to date the goal of promise has been a flying goal, and my opinion is that the adult wicked will need more or less legislative attention after Mr. Wilson has been gathersd:to’ piivaté life in 1. His first demand for the abolition of Interlocking directorates is one of Sen- ator La Follette's pet specifics. It is fine in principle, but it is easy to see that nice, respectable dummies will be at once substituted for the big and bad directors, and the game will proceed ag_before. President Wilson's second remedy is to consist of an industrial commission to act as an arm of the department of justice,with full visitorial and advisory powers in the regulation of big busi- ness. This idea is very old. It was the central plank in Mr. Roosevelt's platform in 1912 and in my address to the republican state convention of that year 1 singled it out as the one plank 1 could heartily approve. The president next insists that bad men are responsible for bad business, and not the articie produced, and that these men and not the business should Le punished. This was President Taft's favorite sermon, and no fault can be found with it. The president's final recommenda- tion that congress forge a master key for the Sherman act—that is, add a chapter of definitions -defining all the acts that will constitute a violation of the law, so that the supreme court will not need to use its brains in the future, but can lay the pending record upon the bench, push or puil out a sentence to fit the crime, and pass on As the law now stands, it prohibits everything that ought to be prohibited —everything that in reason and good conscience is monopolistic the man who tries to limit or extend indefinitely will never finish his job, and congress, once it begins to add to or limit an all inclusive definition, will never finish its work. Certainly we find nothing new. in President Wilson's message. On the contrary, we find the same old disease and the same old remedies, but we do find unusual confidence in the mind of the doctor, and let us hope that the patient’s recovery will be more rapid in the future than it has been in the past. The president should remembér that the country was very prosperous when he took it in hand, and it is very far from prosperous now. Business men are determined to survive a very unjust and spotty tariff, if they can. The press is squirting all the optimism into the situation that it can beg or borrow. Those who call attention to the real situation are put down as treasonous calamity howlers. In April last the president told us with great assurances and with many fine sentences that lower tariffs would destroy monopolies and restore real competition. It now develops that the middleman has been able to buy things a little cheaper and sell at the same old prices. If the low tariffs help any one in the long run, it will be _the monopolist and big producer. Dr. Wil. son realizes now that his tariff and currency bills have failed to bring him to the end of his journey. Indeed, the country seems to be much farther from the millennial conditions promised in April last than it was at the time the promise was made. But this is a great country. It has survived one demo- cratic administration since 1860, and I have no doubt it will survive the pres- ent. FILES OPINION IN COMPENSATION ACT. Attorney General Light Points Out Difference Between Small and Large Employer. In response to a question by a Derby concern, Attorney General John H. Light had filed an opinion concerning the provisions of the compensation act The important part of the opinion savs: The compensation feature of the law might be administered without any reference to the common law defense: but it is clear that many employers would not accept Part B were it not for the inducement furnished by Part A. The only difference, therefore, be- tween the large and small employer, under the law, may be found in the fact that Part A applies to the one and not to the other. This classification is reasonable and proper, for in the na- ture of the case the risks of any reg- ular employment are less and the op- portunity for avoiding them better, where an employe is one of four than when the number is lagrer. “The claim has been made in public that the legislature did not intend to scope of the act, but this claim is un- tenable. The idea doubtless has grown out of the fact that the small employer is expressly excepted from the opera- tion of Part A. But this exception, on the contrary, negatives every other ex- ception.” NORWICH TOWN Storing of 12 Inch lce—Evangelist Adams Coming for Sunday Services.
