Phineas C. Louns bury and the other State officers were to-day elected official dignitaries of the State and the city was jnbilant accordingly. The day broke clear and bright and the members of the Assembly of 1887 were astir early and wended their way to the Capitol, and by 9:30 o'clock nearly every seat in the House and Senate was occupied. The Senate and House held separate sessions and were called together by their re- aoective officers. Thev then went into joint convention.

The Committee on Con tested Elections in the House reported favor ably on the petition of Edward B. Brown, of Cheshire, for a seat. The report of the com mittee was accepted, Mr. Brown sworn in and the number of the House members was augmented. The absentees of yesterday's session took the oath.

A recess was taken for twenty minutes and separate sessions were again held by both houses, and a com- mittee consisting of Senators Lucas and Sumner and Representatives Kellogg, Chaffee, Brooch and Avery were appointed to wait on the Governor when elected and inform him of his election. The joint convention was called together shortly after 10 o'clock by President pro tern Walsh. The Rev. Mr. Stone offered prayer.

The roll call was read, only one Senator be ing absent, bat thirty-three Representatives were absent. This latter fact caused quite a commotion in the House. The large number of absent Representatives was accounted for by the delay in travel due to the storm. Many of the members entered the House later, their trains having arrived, and before the balloting began all but five Democrats had arrived. The balloting began promptly.

The presiding officer announced that ballots could be cast only for Edward S. Cleveland, of Hartford, and Phineas C. Lounaburv, of Ridgefleld. The result of the ballot was: Total number of votes cast 2W NTCessarv to a choice 136 Phineas C. Lounsbury .15 Edward S.

Cleveland. 114 Blank 1 The Hon. Phineas C. Lounsbory was declared elected. His majority was 39.

The vote for Lieutenant Governor was then called for. The ballot stood as follows: Whole number of votes cast 268 Nectawry to a choice 135 James Howard 154 K. E. Bradley. 113 Blank 1 Mr.

Howard was formally declared Lieutenant Oovernor. It will be noticed that Mr. Bradley received one less vote than Mr. Cleveland. The Hots for Secretary of State were then taken up and the result was as follows: Whole number of votfs.

370 Necessary to a choice. 1 3 L. M. Hubbard 156 Bryan F. Mahan 114 Mr.

Hubbard was declared elected and the convention proceeded to ballot for Treasurer, and it resulted thus: Whole number of votes cast 270 Necessary to a choice 136 Alexander Warner 152 W. W. Skiddy 118 It will be observed that Skiddy received the biggest vote of any Democratic candidates. The Democrats are supposed to have 119 in joint convention. The result of the vo for comptroller was: Whole number of votes cast S68 Neces-sary 10 a choice 135 ThomasClark 156 Mai olm Qriswold U2 Mr.

Clark was de'-)ar-d elected comptroller. Grisw old got the lowest vote of any of the Demo crats. This concluded the business, and on motion of Senator Graham the convention was dissolved. The Democratic members of the Senate held their caucus this noon and filled the chairmanships of their committees. Following is the result: School funds, Matthews; new towns and probate districts.

Dunbar; roads and bridges, Staub; claims. Beckwith; sale of lands. Cole; agricultural, Kirk-haui; federal relations, Gallagher; Capitol furniture and grounds, Sumner; revision of joint rules. Hyde; woman suffrage. Hall; State library.

The Republican caucus committee met this noon and voted call a caucus of the Republican Representatives next Thursday afternoon, after both houses adjourn, for the purpose of nominating a United States Senator. THE INAUGURAL EXERCISES.

When the Honse reassembled this afternoon the reports of the committees, who were detailed to wait upon the elected officers, were heard. The Senate then joined the House to take part in the inaugural services. Before the Senate went to the House Lieutenant Governor James L. Howard took the oath of office in the Senate chamber and made an address to the Senate. For an hour before the inaugural ceremonies began the Governor's Horse and Foot Guard were drawn up in line on Trumbull street facing the Allyn House.

The Governor, who had taken up his abode in the Allyn House since his arrival here last night, was saluted with loud cheers when he appeared on the hotel steps and entered the carriage which was to take him to the Capitol to be sworn into office. The usual inaugural parade then took place. The lobbies of the "Capitol were crowded with spectators long before the ar rival of the Governor. Mr. Lounsbury 's father and mother were among the spectators, as well as many prominent citizens of the State socially and politically.

Many New Uaven people were in attendance to-day. The arrival of the Governor at the Capitol was greeted by a salute of seventeen guns. The Governor and his start ana the state officers-elect filed into the Honse shortly af ter 2 o'clock. The oath of omoe was admin istered by Chief Justice Park and Governor Phineas U. Lounsbury arose and delivered his inaugural address, which will be found in full elsewhere in this paper.

When the message was finished the joint convention dissolved, and the Senate and House adjourned till noon of Wednesday next. In the meantime the speaker will make up his committee list. The Foot Guard's Reception. Hartford, Jan. 0.

The annual reception of the Governor's Foot Guard was given this evening to Governor Phineas C. Lounsbury and was a very elaborate affair.

POLO LAST NIGHT. New Haven Defeats Hartford Eight to One. The game last night at Lincoln rink between Hartford and New Haven resulted in New Haven badly defeating the visitors. The rink was crowded and the audience were greatly pleased by the brilliant playing of the New Havens. Connors and Dunning were laid off and their places filled by Parsons and Newcomb.

The rushing of the latter men was fully equal to that of Connors and Dunning. The playing of Hallett was the feature of the came, his long reaches and successful blocking doing much toward win-ping the game. The summary is as follows: Goals. Made by Time. New Haven.

New Haven. New Haven. New Haven. New Haven. New Haven.

New Haven. Hartford. New Haven. Newcomb. Newcomb.

Parsons. Newcomb. Parsons. Newcomb. Parsons.

Telegrapher's Paralysis. Following is an interesting letter from one of the managers of the Western Union Telegraph Bloominoton, Jan. 18, 1886.

I have been in the telegraph business for more than twenty years, and for the past five years have been troubled with what is sailed Writer's Cramp, or Telegrapher's Paralysis. At times my arm became so weak that I could not use it in sending dis patches and had to use my left. Have spent many restless nights, the pain reaching from my hand up to my shoulder. Tried every thing I could hear of, but with scarcely any relief. Having strained my left side a few weeks ago I got one of Allcock's Plasters, as I usually do in such cases, and accidentally happened to see where someone had cured a weak wrist by using one of these plasters.

I got another at once and cut it in two and put one half around my wrist. In less than two days after the pain had entirely left my wrist and arm and in two weeks I could send nearly as well as ever. I write this hoping it will reach the eyes of others who may be afflicted as I was, as I kcow there are scores of them. W. S.
