Senator Searles of Thompson offered the following resolution: Resolved, by this acsemply, That the Hon, Frank B. Brandegee of New Lon- don 'is hereby declared to have-been duly elected a senpator in congress from the state of Connecticut to represent sald state in the congress of the nited States for the term of six years beginning on the fourth day of March, 1909 The resolution adoped. Senator Brandeges Before Assembly. On motion of Senator Searles a com mittee of three was appointed by the chair to wait on Senator Brandegee and inform’ him of his. election and es- cort him before the assembly. The chair named Sepator Searles, Repre- sentative Daniel M. Cronin_of New London and Representative Richard T. Higgins of Winchester. Senator Brandegee had reached the capitol about three-quarters of an hour before and was in the room of the speaker of the house when the com- mittee informed him of his formal was unanimowyly the Office and Pledging His Endeavor to Do Justice Alike to All This nation today stands in the front rank of the great nations of the world. In that position duties and obligations and burdens are imposed upon us which we cannot avoid if we would. During the past six years since I entered congress this nation has progressed and prospered to an extent that not only astonishes us, but is the wonder and amazement of the whole civilized world. Great things have come to pass during that period; great emergencies have arisen; many unexpected problems have come up, and they bave all, by wise statesman- ship, been settled fo the satisfaction of the great majority of the people of this country. But, marvelous as has been our progress in the past, all men are agreed that during the next six years, which the period of the office to which you have just elected me will cover, problems and gasks are sure to arise, both in our donfestic and foreign affairs, which demand all the knowledge and wisdom and states- manship that we can command. During the past six ybars many great legislative acts of great national importance have been placed upon our statute books, and I view with pleas- ure the fact that I have supported and voted for each and every one of those beneficent statutes. The people of the country in the exercise of their suffrages have just committed to the custody of the re- publican party the conduct and cus- tody of the affairs of this government for the next four years. The responsi- bilities thus imposed will be enormous. I can only assure you that I shall bring to bear in the solution of every problem which may arise and every emergency which may come up, every ounce of ability which I may vossess. I can assure you that I shall strive at all times and in cvery place to pre- serve a level head, and I am sure that I shall always carry with me an hon- est heart. The future, of course, no man can entirely anticipate. 1 shall endeavor to do " justice alike to labor and to capital, to the farmer and the manu- facturer, to the producer and the con- sumer. *T take this occasion of stating to those business men and manufac- turers, who, as I have viewed it have been unnecessarily and unduly alarmed, that no wheel in any factory in the state of Conmecticut will cease to turn by resson of the action you have talken here today. The tariff_is now being revised by congress, and of course this state of ours is vitally Interested in the sched- ules and in the rates of dutles to be imposed upon forelgn imports. But let every manufacturer and every pro- ducer in this state, whose business is dependent upon the princlpal of pro- tection, remember that one rate of duty cannot be imposed to protect a product manufactured in ‘Connecticut and another rate of duty be imposed to protect a product manufactured in Cabled Paragraphs Algiers, Jan. 20.—The collier Ajax an the repair ship Panther, accompa- nying the American battleship fleet around the world, arrived here touas from Port Said, St. Petersburg, Jan. 20.—Major Gen- eral Alexieff, retired, was placed on trial in this cify today on the charge of peculation and having received bribes while in the service. He was indicted by order of Minister of Marine Dikoff. Calcutia, Jan. 20.—Lady Violet. Mary, third daughter of Lord Minto, viceroy of India, was united in marriage today to Lord Charles George Francis, sec- ond son of the Marquis of Lansdowne.

Manila, Jan. 20.—Pope Isio, the leader of a band of fanatical Ladrones which has long dominated a large section o1 the country, who was sentenced to be hanged, has been reprieved by Gov- ernor General Smith. He was convict- ed of murder and ladronism but be- cause of his having surrendered to the officers sent to effect his capture they suggested a commutation of sentence. SHOOK THE COUNTRY FOR MILES AROUND. Explosion of Several Tons of Dynamite at Powder Works. Newark, N. J, Jan. 20.—Four men were killed and ten others injured, one fatally, when several tons of dynamite in one of the buildings of the Forcite Powder works at Lake Hopatcong blew up late today. The detonation of the huge mass of explosive shook the country for miles around and blew the building containing it to atoms. Of the fourteen men working in it not one escaped death or injury. The explosion occurred in a one- story frame building where sticks of dynamite are stored. While it proba- bly never will be definitely known what caused it, it is presumed that one of the sticl of dyramite piled in the structure was jarred from its resting place and exploded, detonating the whole mass. There were three or four tons of dynamite in the building and the force of the explosion was terrific. The bodies of the men killed were mu- tilated beyond recognition. Several of the other workers in the buildings were blown considerable distances and it is considered remarkable that only one of them, James Boyle, received fatal injuries. There was soma delay in getting as- sistance to the injured, as it was fear- ed that others of the buildings at the works might blow up. When it was seen that the danger was over, those on the scene hurried to the relief of the living victims. ?’hysicians hastily summoned treated the injured. who were removed as fast as possible to the company’s offices. The Forcite Powder works belongs to the Dupont Powder company and manufactures blasting dynamite. GEORGIA COUNTY CLAIMS TAFT AS HER OWN. Taft Augusta Day Festivities—Night Banquet at Hotel Terrace. ugusta, Ga., Jan. cl cbunty, Georgia, modestly stepped un- der the spotlight today and proclaim- ed Willlam H. Taft as her own—that he was a resident of Augusta when the presidential electors in the various states declared him to be the presi- dent-clect; that as such he was a Georgian by birth and had lived where he was born all.of his presiden- tial life. Thousands of Augdstans clinched the claim with a shout of approval, which was echoed again and again as Major Lilley's Name 0ff House Roll UNANIMOUS ACTION TAKEN BY MEMBERS.

Legislatively speaking the house put in a busy day and there was a hear of bills, resolutions and petitions piled up on the clerk's desk when adjourn- ment was taken until next week.

The tunnel in the bullding of which the crib was used Is being constructed in sections by the George W. Jack- son company. The first section of the tunnel begins at the shore. The criby & mile and a half out, marked the be- ginning of the second section, extend- ing still further into the lake. These two sections had not yet been~joined and therefore no underground escape to shore was possjble, The supersiructure of the crib was a board bullding of two stories. It was surrounded by a narrow platform or pler. Under it'a shaft of steel and concrete about twenty feet in diame~ ter ran down 100 feet to the tunnel proper. A tramway consisting of strong steel cables on which huge bucket cars trav- led, guve connection with the shore or the transfer of supplies and earth. Exact Number of Dead Not Knowm.
