The first folded paper which came from the roaring machine was handed the royal visitor who smiled as he saw on the front page a picture of himself with a caption stating that he had started the machinery which printed it. Throughout his inspection of the ‘many departments of the great news- paper office, the Prince kept up a rapid- fire of questions which showed his keen interest in the art of newspaper making. 1 The difference between various kinds of automatic typesetting machines, the saw article reproduced amount of time saved by their substi- tution for the old hand-setting method, | why cylindrical moulds of the original type forms are placed on the presses instead of the flat chases of type them- ' selves, the spread of the presses and the length of a roll of newsprint were among the points on which the prince was curious. He marveled at the ability of ‘“‘make- up’® men- to read type upside down and failed to recognize a threce-column | “‘cut’’ of himself in the form he was endeavoring to read. In the compos- | ing room he picked up a slug of type as it came from a linotype machine, but found it too hot to hold. John Walter, chairman of the Times, and Wickham Stead, editor, served as guides to the. prince. The directors of the newspaper, several departmental heads and a small number of visitors invited for the occasion, were present- | ed to him. With each he chatted a short time, discussing individual avoca- ' business, sport and travel, in his usual simplicity of manner. The prince is the second heir to the throne to visit Printing House Square. In 1863, the late King Edward, then Prince of Wales, made a similar in- spection of the Times' plant HARTFORD LIQUOR CASES Nine Saloon Dealers, Accused of Sell- ing Booze, Are Each Fined. $100 and Costs. Hartford, Feb. 5.—"As a matter of | form,” Judge Francis A. Pallotti in ! police court today owver-ruled the plea in abatement, the plea to juris- diction and the demurrer filed a week ago in the cases of nine Hart- ford saloonkeepers, charged with selllng liquor in their places of bus- iness. In his answer to various points of law raised by defense, Judge Pallotti, in his decision, em- phasized the position of the state, ex- plaining that if he took jurisdiction in matters which was of “vital im- portance,” the state ‘could not ap- peal from his decision. He expressed the opinion that the higher courts should pass upon the proposition. Juge Pallotti fined the nine dealers accused $100 each and costs. Counsel for the defendants claimed that the court was without jurisdic- tion on the ground that the United States law superseded the Connecti- cut law and prosecution should be by United States authorities in a Unmnited States court. “Of course this morning’s pro- cedure is a farce. We shall nppeal{ and fled demurrers in he superior aourt. We are prepared to go through with these cases to the! United States supreme court” said Benedict M. Holden of counsel for the accused, after court adjourhed. PATIENT IS MISSING Iocal Relatives of Clarence Ruddell of South Manchester Learn He Has Es- caped from Sanitariom.

STATE ACCOUNTING Governor Lake Confers with Comp- Bissell Relative to New Department In His Office. . sion, | getting the: troller Hartford, Feb. 5.—Governor Lake | has made suggestions to Comptroller Bissell in connection with the plan for establishment of a system of ac- counting. He thinks that there ought to be a department in the comptroll- er's office given up entirely to the ac- counting system and that duplicates of the accounts of all the institutions and departments in the state should be kept there. The government is in- | sistent on the greatest publicity be- ing given to the accounts and that they be at all times accessible to the publie. “If anyone furnishes materials for changes or repairs in the capitol or other state buildings his competitors in business should be able to see how much was paid the state for mate- rials,” said the governor in illustrat- ing his point. Tt is expected that the hill will be originated in some legislative com- mittee—possibly the committee on finance—to give effect to the govern- or’s views. If 'the bill becomes law and the proposed system of accounting is adopted it will be necessary to in- crease the floor space of the comp- ' Indiana. old. | Cienewicz, I time. of - 30 p. | Following the dinner Dr. George | director of the United ! | er troller’'s department. - fovernor T.ake has suggested that the @mptroller take the entire suitg 00ms eX- tending from the 3 re of capitol to the 4a . side. 1 storm is cenfy in the cenf) The front od as far east a well defined over Utah. between the the Mississip ture is rising and is now g far north Conditions increasing c late this aftd WOULD American H Markets Cheaply U Washingt that as a change sit manufaciurd Holland and products in | price beiow: American | asked the committee t $15 a ton from any cd The prese valorem pro eight cents: | accorded LONERG2 | Recent Iling rom R His Term, Hartford, Augustine 'L resenting thj trict, who will not be, . in Washin pires.
