The report lacked official confirmation, however, and: Feceived Jittle credence in the best informed gquarters. It is known that the Harriman lines havs plans afoot for improvements which will call for new *financing during the next few years, but no- project of this nature is expected to be undertaken at present, so ‘soon after thz flotation ‘by the Southern Pacific of a $50,000,000 bond issue in Paris. * One of the'few optimistic utterances which have come to the attention of ‘Wall street recently. was attributed to- day to u high official of the Harriman lines to the effect that the outlook for s&_earhings of the roads for ‘he re- nder of the calendar year was very promising and that there were pros- pects of a ; uina improvement of ncn conditions in . the A co ihtmn of February railroad returns wed ‘& decrease of 13.44 per cent. in ‘the averiige of net earnings.

HERRERA, THE MEXICAN, MOST TERRIFIC PUNCHER. Battling Nelson Gives Him Credit— Knockout in Either Hand. Baittling Nel#on, in talking over his fights recently, said that Herrera had the hardest punch of any man he ever met in the ring. “Look over my rec- ord,” said the Dane. “They could all hit—Spider Welch, Martin Canole;, Ed- die Hanlon, Young Corbett, Terry Mc- qvern, Joe Gans, Dick Hyland, Au- lio Herrera, Ad ngxu.st and Owen Moran. But of all this list of knock- out artists the hardest puncher and most vicious fighter was the Mexican person, Herrera. “Herrera was a peculiar type. He wo -come at you all covered up Both hand would be leaning against his own jaws and his elbows would be protecting his stomach. When he was right on top of you and you were try- ing to pick out a spot on which to land your own punch he would shoot out boih hands and if either landed it was arithmetic for the roferee. “Martin Canole wus the best ‘left- handed puncher that ever dived. He landed his left on my stomach early in our fight, and I actually squealed from pain for the next two rounds. Canole never knew how close he was to beat- ing me. Had he kept after me he might have won the.fight. “Gans never hurt me to any extent. His punches were not of a hurting kind. - They were the snappy, s;l;rt . Men who have been knocked out by him say his blows simply rocked a person to sleep and did not leave any bad after éffedts. Gans was the most mer- ciful of all fighters and one of the fin- est gentlemen of the ring. “Wolgast cannot punch, but is veiy face. His combined blows ultimately have the effect of a knockout, and he has wonderful stamina himself. Moran is 'a real -puncher and a great fighter, as well as a remarkable fine little fel- low. “McGovern hit me with both hands in the jew during the fourth round of our fight in Philadelphia, and my head did not stop aching for two days.” Business Men’s Team Will Fill In. For the double basketball bill at the Y, M. C.

The members of the general assembly will_not work today—at least, mot at the capitol, adjournment of both senate and house on Thursday being to Tues- day of next week. Friday sessions are becoming unpopular. The house on Thursday rejéected the bill prohibiting thes edacation of chil- dren under 7 years of age in a roomr more than two stories above the base- ment of any school building. The resolution B. Sweet of Griswold to setting in Connecticut, unfavorably ra- ported by the committée, was taken from the table in the housé on Thurs- day, but again tabled in the absence of Representative Bent of Bridgsport, who is to advecate the passage of the resolution. Senator Spellacy does not get the support of many democrats in the leg- islature in his attempt to sacure ré- versal of the legislature’s action in appointing Walter H. Clark judge of the city court of Hartford The feel- ing seems to be that the Hartford sen= ator is attempting a stunt that is not deserving of the party’s support. Representative ck - of = Stratford warned the house on Thursday that he would raise the point of no quorum if a session was held on Friday of this week ond no greafer number of masm- ‘bers were present than has been tH case on' the past two Fridays. “No more sessions without a quorum,” fis Mr. Peck’s ultimatum. While another hearing will be given - by the committee on cities and bor- oughs relative to the proposed mnew charter for the city of Norwich, it is understood that the charter will prob- ably be reported-favorably: Squomr W. H. Taylor made a hit with the suffragettes Thurgday, his of- fering being a beautiful rambler rose- bush, potted, and bearing a wealth of blooms. Wednesday he gave the ladies fliagt? for which they wera duly appre- clative. More fireworks are expected in the senate Tugsday when the bedraggled New Haven judgeship mattar will come up at noon-ag the order of the day: Among the many matters that the judiciary committee has set down for hearings next week are the bills' con- cerning the clerical expenses. of the superior court for New London county, concerning the pay of the messenger of the superior court for New London county, increasing the compensatién of the messenger of ths superior court:for Tolland county, etc., ‘etc., these bdills to be heard Tuesday afternoon. A repcrt from the committes on hu- mane institutions has been made that is favorabls to changing the name of the state hospital 'at ‘Norwich to the Norwich “state” hospital lor the in- sane. The word &“insane.”” Thowever, wmich it was desired to eliminate, re- mains, Prof. W. A. Henry, dean of the agri- cnltural department of ths University of Wisconsin, and Leonard H. Healey, Woodstock, master of the state grange, are to sveak before the Farmers’ asso- ciation at the capitol next Wedneésday morning on Protection for ths Ameri. ;n Farmer and Reciprocity With Can- a.
