Haddad who runs a tailor shop at 376 Central abenue and during the course of the visit an ar- gument was started by the visitor. Words did not seem to better matters and to convince Mr. Haddad that he was in the right, the visitor seized a handy flatiron which Mr. Haddad had just been using and struck Mr. Haddad In the face with it, burning him quite severely. In the struggle that en- sued the visitor also received a scorched face. He accordingly ran out of the store carrying the iron with him and when in front of the store of James W. Semple a few blocks far- ther up Central avenue dropped the flat on the sidewalk continuing on to his boarding place at 516 North Main treet. In the meantime Officer Bray was called and learning where his man was started after him. The man learn- ed that the policeman was looking for him and he jumped out of his bedroom window minus hat and coat and has not been seen since. Although Mr. Haddad's' burns were quite painful they are not serious. Temperance Sunday at County Hom: Temperance Sunday was observed by the children at the county home yesterday afternoon. Mrs..

Her. talk border- ed on temperance in general and she showed the boys the avils of the cigar- ette habit. The children were much taken with him talk which was not only interesting but of an instructive nature. Temperance songs were sung, with Miss Sybil .Christmann at {he plano. About 80 of the bovs and girls at the home were present at the ser- vice. WINTER MILLINERY A fine assorimen: of latest styles In Hata Come in and see them. wanw. 3. K. D1ANITON, 52 Shetucket St DR.

C. Fisher, of Middletown, under the auspices of the Central Labor union, the live interest taken in the matter here was very ap- parent. There were many women in- cluded in the audience. Geer's orches- tra furnished an entertaining pro- gramme of selections at the opening of the meeting. Daniel Beebe. presi- dent of the local union presided and presented His Honor Mayor T. C. Murphy, who welcomed the gathering, briefly and cordially. Professor Fisher Speak President Beebe presented Prof. Fisher who spoke in part as follows: “It is to many, painfully familiar that modern industry is accompanied by very many wccidents, but few real ize the enormous number of injuries which come to men and women in their_employment. It has been esti- mated after careful investigation that 35,000 are killed in industry and be- tween five hundred thousand and a million are injured more or less seri ously each year in the United States. | At the hearing in Hartford last week a representative of a factory employ- ing 1500 hands stated that accidents averaged one every day there. Hardly a Penny Pal Until the movement for compensa- tion was started there was no redress for injury or death. Perhaps ome in ten received some slight compensa- tion but this was entirely Inadequate, and in most cases mot a penny was ever paid. This was due to certain principles of law known as the com- mon law. The three doctrines of em- ployer's liability, or rather non-lia- bility were the fellow servant doctrine, assumed risk and contributory negli gence. These doctrifies had their ori- £in in England. Thus a person in- jured must prove that the accident was through no fault of his fellow workman, was not an accident in- herent to the business and one which | he assumed on entering the concern and that he himself in no way con- tributed to the accident. With all this to prove, great expense of litigation ang long walits in the machinery of the courts, the employe seldom cared to take the chance of suing the em- plover. The result was that the in- | Juries due to industry in this country were not redressed at all. Thus vear after vear industry has taken the life and blood of its workers. Whereas, | | the employer must replace a broken | machine he was under no obligation | to replace a broken man. He vas to| remove the broken machine but the injured man crawls away or is taken away by his friends. Germany’s Compensation System. Germany developes for the world a system of compensation, in which the principal feature is the fact that all | questions of cause are ignored. Modest pecuniary payment is made to the per- son or his surviving dependents, re gardless of fault in the cause of the | accident. The purpose of such a system is to provide the companion in the simplest, least expensive way: so that the least possible amount shall | be consummed in litigation and exe- cutlon, and the most possible of that advanced by the employer shall reach the employe. It is better for the widow to have a moderate amount, one half her husband’s salary coming | in regularly for a certain period of | vear, than to have the poor right of sulng the emplover. - Thus the com- | pensation system started in Germany |and spread oll over the whole world | but until 2 yeara ago thers was no| compensation system in this country, | only the old astrocious system of 50 | called employer’s liability. | A New York Cas | A bill was introduced in New York | to insure immediate payment of | compensation but it was decided In| the famous Ives case that the em- | ployer could not be forced to make an | immediate payment. = Two years ago the Hartford Central Labor union drew up a bill to escape the Ives' de- cision. = The principle of avolding this decision lay In the provisions that the logislature abolish the three doctrines of common law, so that the case would be much changed should employe sue employer. The second part required | that it any employer agreed to pay the amount of compensation stated for varlous Injuries, he would not be subject {o the new law. Thus if the employe refused to accept the pay ment provided in the bill for his in- jury, then he could sue the employer |only’ under the old common law. Should the employer refuse to pay the amount then he could be sued, and the Tesult of the case would mot de- pend upon the cause of the accldent. Thus there was an advantage for both sides, the employe was assured of swift payment of a stated amount, of which he would receive the whole, and the emplover knew just what the expense would be to himself. 1 drew up this Bl At the time the lawyers laughed but now they all admit that it 1s a good bill. Changing Sentiment Here. In six states today there stand laws on that same principle, and they are regarded as good compensation laws. This went through the senate with but six epposed votes, but in the house it was killed, 150 to §0. T¢ was the farmer and smail community man in | | the house which killeq the bill. The 50 who voted for the bill al] represented manufacturing communities, and their votes stood for twice as many people as did the 150. Many of the peopls of Connecticut who opposed the bill have since regretted thefr opposition, and the sentiment §s much more favorable this vear towards the passage of a compensation bill. It is gencrally | agreed that such a bill should be pass- ed. The Four Bills. There are four hills in the hands of the committees. One was prepared by a commission appointed by the gov- ernor, and may be termed the commi: sion bill. The next is the socialis bill. Then there is the manufacturers’ bill, prepared by the Manufacturers’ association. and finally there is the bill of the State Federation of Labor. | These four are seriously considered. The Commission Bill. ‘The commission bill is limited in its scops, applying only to the industries named in the bill. There are omissions of some important industries, and this will cause a feeling against it. The bill applies only te a busimess in which there aro less {han seven Dersons res- warly employed. The number is alse too high The Socialist Bill. The socialist bill is alse defective in limiting its scops. Anolher bad feai- ure is the faet that the compensations are tes hish. Ns enc is willing to de more thas I thal he empioye may be compensated. bU We IRUST remember (hat we are pushing agaias: strong in terests, and the higher compensation we demand, (e stronger will be the oppesition. Ore-haif wagé compensa tion is regarded as fair_everywhere; | thus the injursd one stands half the | a body without life. misfertune and the empioyer haif. If ' we damand 75 oF 189 Rar cani wa in- of A. F. of L. Bill, He Claims. Jjure our chances of passing a bill, and ‘should the bill be passed the high rate of compensation might prove a decided handicap-to manufacturers in Connec- ticut. The Manufacturers’ Bill. The manufacturers’ bill is about as 00d as any of them, but it has anum- er of defects. tunity has been taken to reduce the amount of compensation, and the bill is not easy to understand. This bill provides no compensation for/the man Who is injured while under the influ- ence of liquor, or as a result of some wilful act of his own. I ¢ whether a widow and children should Dbé left destitute on this account. Bith- er some compensation, reduced per- haps, should be made in such cases or else the compensation should be dou- bled when an accident is the result of some wilful negligence or the intoxica- tion of the employer. This bill also requires that a widow without children receive bu- 40 per cent. of her hus- band’s wages. To balgnce such a clause, there should be provision for an_increase in the amount when the widow has several children or is in especially needy ciroumstances. The bill requires that no compensation be paid except to such as are residents of this country. Thus a forelgner with @ family in Burope is killeq and the employer pays for putting him under the ground. If an. American is killed it will cost the employer two or three thousand dollars. Thus manufacturers arc encouraged to employ foreign la- bor and discourage Americans Federation Bill's Goed Peints. Among several, the Federation s un quesionably the beat bill One fault lies in the fact that it provides no other assurance of payment except the state fund. It is of vital mportance that the compensation be paid with ab- salute certainty. In an accldent when several men are killed the manufi turer may not be able to pay tho ff- teen or twenty thousand dollars which he is llable to. There must be a cer- tain guarantee. The employer should be allowed to buy insurance if he de- sires, but this is imm-nsely expensive. The manufacturers should be encour- aged to reduce the number of acck dents, to make further provieion for safety of employes. With an employ ers mutual association, the manufac- turer would be encouraged to reducs accidents. In a mutual association each employer is dealt with separately and gets a rate which depends entlirely npon conditions in his own plant, Horeover with a mutual _employers’ assocation the rates of Insurance would be much cheaper than in & commercial company. In Wisconsin an employers’ mutual insurance association was formed on the standard of the old line companies, with urate but 40 per cent. of the rate of the old commercial com- pany. At the end of the year 15 per cenf. of the assessments were carried over to the reserve fund. State Board and State Fund. A state bbard to adjust and decids the all cases and a siaté fund are principal features of the Federation bill would favor a state fund In which any employer can insure him- self at a low rate, with a state board to decide all claimis for injuries. The Federation bill provides 10 per cent. premiums of emplovers themselves and provides a compensation of 662-3 per cent. How Will the Farmers Vote? The ‘serious question is now. How will the farmers yote? You can't tell. However, the aspect is much different from that of two years ago, and senti- ment Is much stronger in favor of the passage of the compensation bill. Poli- tictans got in wrong at the last legis- lature by oppgsing' the bill, and they won't dare to do it @gain. It is a safe bet that a compensation bill. a good bill, will be passed.

THE PERFECT SACRIFICE. Subject of Passion Sunday Sermon by Rev. William F. Cavanaugh at St. Patrick’s Church Yesterday, Passion Sunday, _the preacher at the high mass in St. Pat- rick’s church was Rev. Willam I Cavanaugh, who continued his instruc- tion on the eucharist. Not only is tha eucharist a sacrament but a sacrifice. | he said. ‘A religion without a sacrifice is like The idea of sacri- fice in religion is as old as man. Wish- ing to express worship, gratitude, de- pendence, penitence, men early offered God the sacrifice of the first fruits of the earth, the ripened grain. the blood of a lamb without blemish. These were but imperfect, humar offerings. Reallzing man's imperfec- tions, God later promised him that He would send a perfect sacrifice, a clean oblation, to be offered to His name, in every place, from the rising to the sef- ting of the su This perfect sacrifice was the death of the Man-God on the cross.
