H. & Hartford railroad company, an appeal of the corporation, was first called, and placed at the foot of the list, A local casq of intrest is the ap- peal of Dr. George G. Sleeper, . who was sentenced to state's prison for & term of from 1 to 8 years for man- slaughter. He was convicted of per- forming an illegal operation on Mrs. for later of blood poisoning. ~The late Joseph L. Barbour was counsel for Dr, Sleeper in the lower court. After ‘Mr, Barbour's death, Spotswood D. Bowers of Bridgeport, was retained by Dr. Steeper. Mr. Bowers was not present today, as he is an assistant counsel for Cok Roosevelt in the ac- tion for dlleged libel now on trial in Syracuse, N. Y., in which Willlam Barnes is the plaintiff.

Hartford, May 4.—A visitor to the house today was former Congressman Richmand Pearson Hobson, who is touring the state in the interest of the prohibitory movement. He was invited to speak during a short re- cess by Representative Back of Kil- ingly, the presiding officer, in the bsence of Speaker Healey. Mr. Hobson with much feeling referred to his emations as he passed under the Memorial arch ' in the capitol grounds, when he realized that the men whose names were inscribed thereon fought against-the men of the south, he himself being the son of a Confederate soldier. = He spake of the great spirit of unity now ex- isting” between the north and the south, and the loyalty which will be shown by the men of both sections, should the nation again require their services. Mr. . Hobson spoke briefly upon his congressional career and the lessons he had -learned, ‘which..em- phasized the sovereignty of the states and the powers they have to control congress, should the occasion arise. He believed that the time has come for the nation to get back to the position and attitude of the fore- fathers on organic questions. He said the success of a system of self- government like ours depends upon ‘perpetuation of a high average stahd- ard of character behind the vote. If the average of character sags the liberty of the nation is imperilled. Mr. Hobson closed with references to the question of prohibition. Revised Charter for Stamford. The cities and boroughs committee reported a revised charter for the city of Stamford. The judiciary commit- iee reported an amendment to the law creating county. sealers of weights and measures providing tnat compen- sation shall be fixed ri' tounty meet- ings, by members of the county dele- gation, The house in concurrence rejected the bill which would have permitted the licensing of moving preture exhi- bitions on Sunday evemngs. Con- siderable debate accompanied this action. 4 Aubrey the “Goat.” Mr. Aubrey of the judiciary com- mittee said he was. the ‘“goat” who had been selected to explain the measure, He preferred that Mr. King of Fairfield, who signed the minority report should first state 'his objec- tiops., Mr, King arguea that there was no demand for this legislation. The bill was in the interests of theater managers and others who wished to make money on Sunday. He could see no consistency in a plea for liberty through recreation under God's clear sky and in pure air, and the other plea for exhibition in badly ventilated theaters. He said all re:igious ins terests were firmly against opening theaters on Sunday. 4 Among others who spoke against the bill were Mr. Norton or Saybrook, Mr. Shaw of Redding, Mr, Emerson of Roxbury, Mr. Isbell of Ansonia and Mr, Rogers of Litchfield. No one spoke in favor. Mr. Hyde moved the previous questlon asking for a decent | .4 church streets. The Johnson car interment of the matter.
