(Special to The Bulletin.) Hartford, April 14—The demonstra- tion made by the people of Norwich and the earnest and vigorous action of the attorneys, backed by the untir- ing efforts of Senator Barnes and Rep- resentatives Bailey and Henderson, has resulted in a vote of the committee authorizing an unfavorable report on the petition of F. B. Ricketson, ask- ing for a division of the town of Nor- wich. This will be a majority report, and perhaps, the only report, and, un- der the accepted custom the majority report of the committee will be ac- cepted and the petitioner granted per- mission to withdraw, The committee on new towns and probate districts, who have had this matter of vital Interest to the city and town of Norwich under consideration, held an executive session, Wednesday afternoon, and a vote taken on the matter resulted as follows: Against separation—Senator Thomp- son of Pomfret, Senator Pierson of Bristol, Representatives Henderson of Norwich, Allen of Litchfield, Chitten- TESTIMONY WINS is Adverse to Bill to Create den of Guilford, Woodward of Sharon, Atchison of Shérman—T1. In favor of separation—Representa- tives of Killingly, Yost of Vernon, Tal- mage of Prospect, Revere of North Branford—4. Absent—Williamson, Basset, of Ashford—2. There are thirteen members on_the committee and even with Messrs, Wil- liamson and Basset in favor of the separation, there would still be a ma- jority of one against the proposition. Mr. Back is house chairman of the committee and there is probability that he may present a minority report, in the hope of recelving the vote of the house against the majority report, and thereby carry the vote in favor of separation. If this is attempted, it will probably not receive the endorse- ment of the members of the house, who invariably vote in favor of the major- ity report of the committee. There have been three public hear- ings on thig petition and the evidence has been overwhelmingly against any separation of the town and no argu- ment was advanced in favor of the scheme, of Darien; SANATORIUM SUPERINTENDENT ADDRESSED NURSE ALUMNI.
