That the protest of Great Britain |, against the enactment of lquluht: s 't canal wiil have no material effect up- on the senate in dealing with the canal bill is the belief of Senator Brande- gee of Connecticut, expressed Sunday. Mr, Brafidegee has received an outline of the protest, which he had printed in the Record. ~He will call up the bill daily for discussion, it being now the unfinished business of the senate. TWwo weeks' debate are expected. . The request of the British govern- ment for delay in considering the canal Dbill will not be acceded to, Mr. Brande- gee said. He regards it as important that canal legislation be enacted now. The point made by Great Britain that the pending bill violates the Hay- Pauncefote treaty’s provision that ships be permitted to use the canal on equal terms will not make the sen- ate change its mind, Mr. Brandegee says. eH believes that the bill will be passed exempting American ships from the payment of tolls. He r ds such a provision as vio- lating the treaty, as do many other senators, and says he chnnot teil what the consequences will be. Senator Brandegee opposes freedom from tolls for American ships, because he says shipowners will pocket the amount of ihe tolls and charge them against the shippers and consumers as though the tolls had been paid. Senators differing with him say it 4s up to the state de- partment to negotiate a new treaty SUITS FOR $8,000 AGAINST C. V. ROAD. Mr. and Mrs. John H. Butler Each Claim $4,000 Damages For Injuries Nto Mrs. Butler. Papers in two suits against the Cen- tral Vermont railroad, brought by H. Butler of Norwich and his each claiming $4,000 damages hs been filed with the clerk of the su- perior court. In .the suit brought by Mr, Butler he charges that on the evening of ch 22, 1912, Julia R, Butler, the wife of the plaintiff was thrown and severely hurt at the Norwich Town railroad crossing through tripping over a jagged and frayed rail there, sus- taining such serious injuries that Mrs. Butler has been compelled to expend a large sum for medical attendance. The injuries consisted of bruises and cuts on the face, chest, arm, shoulder, neck, and back, broken teeth, as well as internal injuries it is claimed. By reason of her injuries she had been uiable to perform household duties and was still incapacitated. Mrs. But- ler also brings suit for damages in the same amount, naming the defec- tive condition of the crossing as the cause of action. Incidents In Society. Mrs. George T.
