Washington, D. C. April 13.—A good federal job that a Connecticut man can have, especially one from New Britain or Hartford or that sec- tion, is going begging because no one- capable of taking it wants it. This is the situation which on- gressman Lonergan of the New Britain-Hartford district is facing, following an announcement from the treasury department that he could recommend the appointment of a new national bank examiner for the district that embraces eastern Con- necticut and Rhode Island. Mr. Lonergan has been looking for some bit of patronage of that kind, that carries a' good salary; and he Te- ceived the notice the other day that a bank examinership was his as soon as he recommended a competent man. Mr. Lonergan looked into the quali- fications required of an appointee to such a place, found he must have certain national banking experience and be an “expert accountant. Then he started out to find a competent man that wanted the job. He scoured the ranks of the democrats in the district first, asked the dem- ocratic leaders in his congressional district for suggestions and made a thorough canvass. Job Goes Begging. Of course, he found a lot of per- sons competent to take the job. But to none of them did the salary and the job look attractive enough for them to give up their present places. Then he took up a suggestion that a man be appointed from his district, regardless of his party affiliations. The same situation as before con- fronted him. But no one has been found to fill the place. A banker ‘named Freeman of Prov- idence, R. I, has passed the exami- nation for the place and is anxious for the job. Unless Mr. Lonergan finds someone in his district or even in Connecticut, soon, Mr. Freeman will receive the appointment. Mr. Lonergan has been convinced that the men of banking experience in Connecticut have very ' good jobs; otherwise, one would like this _na- tional bank examinership. Gets Conspicnous Notice. The Manufacturers® association of the city of Bridgeport got a conspic- uous notice in the Congressional Record of Friday morning. On the first page of the Record is printed in full a 'copy of resolutions recently adopted by the association relative to the establishment of trade commis- sionis 'dnd outlining regulations for the control of corporations. 4 The Tesolutions set- -forth: ’ {'Various: bills ‘have been introduced <congress and now being: considered by them, to establish commissioners and outlining, regulations for the con- ‘[.trol;of 'corporations; and Provisions of Bills. “The provisions of these bills as at present drawn are, in our opinion, such as to interfere seriously with || eneral business methods and are so BAKED FRESH EVERY DAY ‘The piles of bread we dispose of would be amazingif it were not.for the character of the bread.

Insurance Company Brings Against State Treasurer. Hartford, April 13.—The Aetna Fire Insurance company has brought an action in the superior court to re- cover from the state treasurer’s of- ficé $100,000 in government bonds deposited in 1911 with Costello Lip- pitt, then state treasurer, in order & comply with a law of the state of idaho.at that time concerning outside insurance companies doing business in that state. The Idaho law was repealed in 1913 and the insurance commissioner of the state returned the certificates showing the deposits with the Connecticut treasurer. The Aetna company offered to turn these over to State Treasurer E. S. Rob- erts in return for the securities, but it was found that an action at law was necessary. The: Idaho commis- sioner has given his confent to the withdrawal. Attorney General John H. Light Action represents the state treasurer in the action and has filed an answer in which he says the company must prove its claim. Huge Diamond a Hoodoo. The remarkable story about a 135- karat diamond that brought nothing but disaster and misery to everybody concerned ever since it was at one time pried from the mouth of a dying negro, will be told in the twenty-four- bage Sunday’s New York World.

Allowances Are Made. The house has passed a bill aimed to straighten out certain legal tangles in the accounts of the United States marshal for Connecticut. . In the ac- counts of Marshal Hawley, it is pro- vided, allowance is to be made for payment of $192 to Selah G. Blake- man in 1912, of $363 to Selah G. Blakeman and $513 to Timothy E. Hawley in 1913, These were paid | for extra work done by the two dep- uty United.States mafshals, although the law strictly did not allow such payments to men receiving at the | same time compensation as field dep- uty marshals. Connecticut People Benefited. Two Connecticut claimants are benefited by an omnibus pension bill passed by the house Friday after-; noon. One is Duncan D. Gibbud of | of West Cheshire, Conn., who served ‘in Company C, 14th Connecticut Vol- unteers and Company C, 20th Con- nectcut Vetran Reserve Corps; the other is Alice M. Atwater of Plants- ville, Conn., widow of Eugene At- water, who served in the First Bat- tery, Connecticut Light Artillery and was first lieutenant of Company E, 6th Connecticut Volunteers and who was discharged as captain of Com- pany D of the same regiment. Private Gibbud is to have his pen- | slon raised from $19 to $30 per | month. He is unable to do manual labor and needs a measure of atten- dance, the physicians reported to congress. He has no income and no property except his pension. Mrs. Atwater’s husband never drew a pension. She and Mr. Atwater were married in 1867 and he died in 1878. She is now unable to do any manual work and has a small home. Her pension, her only income, is to be increased from $12 to $20 per month. Among recent Connecticut visitors in Washington are Judge George W. Wheeler of the state supreme court of errors, and his family; Judge John | H. Perry of Southport, who is on his way home from a stay in Cam- den, S.
