Mr, Nickegson repeat. edly asked questions during the hew- ing. No Subpoenas Issued. The committea did not use sub. poeha power but invited the rail. road to semd representatives and asked the public utilities commis- sion to be present, The rallroad was represented by Viee President E. G. Buckland, General Manager C. L. Bardo, Superintendent J. O, Halladay. and others, The hearing opened with a state- ment by Mr. Buckland, who fol- lowed it with the reading of por- tions of an address he made in Boston last week. Mr. Bardo fol- lowed and for half an hour gave a review of conditions on the road for several years, up to the shop- men's strike on July 1, last. He spoke vparticnlarly of the labor troubles with the shopmen on the system and of the recruiting of a new force of men. It was while on this later phase of conditions that Mr. Bardo said that there had béen many attempts to cripple the rolling stock and to interfere with operations of trains. Tells of Sahotage. He said that on one day twenty locomotives were taken off | trains between New York and Boston be- cause of “hot boxes,” He said that inspection showed that emery dust had been sifted loto the journals causing these hot boxes and contri- buting to interfercnce in operations that day. He went on to cite other instances of alleged sabotage and crippling of rclling stock during the early period of the shopmen's troubles. Later, when he was being question- ed by Chairman De Peyster, Mr. Bar- do said that the interference he had spoken of was prior to the arrest of Krnest Schieifer, whose case is still pending in the New Haven city court. After Mr. Bardo had spoken at con- siderable length of the movement of both freight and passenger traffic and had told of the efforts of the road to move coal, he was queauoncdév members of the committee for nearly half an hour. These questionsieov- ered a wide range from oPernuons to financial matters, Let Road Alone. One of the last questions he was asked by Mr, Dunham was as to the character of the help the legislature could give the road. He replied: “The :greatest help the New Maven road can {have today is to be let alone.” Speaking of the outlook, Mr. Bardo said that operation was getting bet- ter and better every day, and later Chairman Higgins of the public utili- ties committee said that the commis- sion agreed with this statement for their own inquiry and survey led it to believe that there was daily improve- ment through increasing efficiency of 3 Women Nt_:gq__Swamn-Runt Thousands of women have kidney and bladder trouble and never sus- pect it i ‘Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trouble, or the result of kidney or bladder disease. 1f the kidneys are pot in a healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased.

Mr. Bardo denied that there were thousands of cars of coal at the May- brook gateway. He told Mr, Dunham that there were only 600 cars there and of these 126 were consigned to Connecticut points. Questions were mostly asked by Chairman De Pey- ster who read them from sheets of paper as if they had been handed in to the committee. The chairman, several times, remarked that the coms mitiee had been asked to put these questions, All Facilities Necessary., Mr. Bardo said that the power of the road was now in a more favor- able condition than it was last July and that the road as a whole was in better shape. He said: “We have all the facllities necessary to carry traf- fic for several years to come.” He told of sending away 100 loco- motives to be repaired. He said when ‘they were returned 'the road would have no trouble in handling traffic except for weather conditions. Mr. Buckland; replying to Mr. n- ham, said that®prior to government control the road never failed to earn its interest. Under normal’ conditions, he saw no reason why the New Ha- ven road should) not show a surplus in earnings the coming year. Chairman Higgins spoke for the public utilities commission, making only a general slatement but offering to submit any data requested. He said what the road needed was the spirit of co-operation from the public, loy- alty on the part of the employes to the road and the spirit to give an hon- est day's work for an honest day's | pay. Com. Elwell's Opinion. Commissioner Elwell spoke briefly, mainly about the organization of the rallroad from the operating stand- point. He believed that it was best to have a division superintendent in close touch with the men under him as well as the patrons as formerly and did not agree with Mr. Bardo in the policy of having few but large divi- sions. H. H. Wells, Hartford, asked Mr. Bardo why the road did not put all its effort now into the problem of bringing in coal. Mr. Wells spoke more about suffering from lack of coal than any one did at the coal hearing yesterday. Mr. Bardo said that the road was handling coal and food in preference to all other freight. Mr. Wells then said that the road had had the opportunity to win the friendship of everyone 1n Hartford if it had brought in coal. He thought it sin- gular that within the last 24 hours ,000 tons of coal had been brought into this city. Coal Traffic Ques?ions. Senator Pierson asked Mr, Bardo a number of questions about the coal traffic and why the New Haven road put on an embargo against connecting lines, Mr. Bardo explained that con- necting roads did not deliver merely coal but all classes of freight and it was the latter that choked the lines when the New Haven road was trying to get coal to New England. George Soule of New York read a statement dealing with thg shopmen's strike claiming where other roads had settled their troubles there were no transportation difficulties. He said that if the New Haven had scttled with its shopment there would have been no such situation as exists to- day. Mr. Soule was questioned about labor ufiions on other roads by J. 8. Stevens of Hartford, J. C. Ready, chairman of the system federation, the shopmen’'s strike. This statement, with that of Mr. Soule’s was given to the committee. Reason For Question, Several men were on their feet to speak when Chairman De Peyster After the hearing Mr. Ornburn, in an interview, said he asked the question in regard to the policemen because he wanted to find out if the committee thought that the striking shopmen and the labor union men present were “thugs” and that anyone was in danger of being hurt and needed protection, Senator Brooks said that he replied to Mr. Ornburn bécause state police officers had been out in raiiroad yards digging in the snow on cars to find out’if they contained coal, what kind of coal it was and where the cars were headed for. The officers had been ordered to the hearing because | lgive intormation PENSION BILL 15 REVISED | Mest of those were ab the hearing whea i was adiourned had |10 take & train for New Haven which | Commitice Changes Burson Measure was soheduled to ‘r at g hut o Meet Harding's Ohjections. |departed an hour aill & quarier & = ....f.“-.. which was altached the pri I Washingten, Feb. 1.=The Bursum, | pension bill, after the [vate ear of Mr. Barde.
