The motion to indefinitely postpone was lost by a vote of 99 to 73. Mr. Thoms then advocated the passage of the bill, as it was good in principle and of benefit to the poor people of the state Mr. Pardee said he was in favor of the iple involved, but as the bill was it would affect every bank in The original bill was Mr. Eno of Simsbury made metion that the petitions concerning fares and transfers of the Danbury and Bethel % B Street Railway company be placed at is the largest we ever nad and B ih, 1o0t of the calendar for discussion the best stock in New London some day when there was ample tima S to devote to such matters.

Mr. King of Fairfleld moved the whole matter be tabled, which was lost. Mr. Magee was opposed to the legislature fixing rates for trolley fares. Mr, Stevens of Dan- bury favored ihe amendment. Mr. Hall sald the legislature was fixing a bad precedent and matters of this kind should be referred to the utilities com- mission. Mr. King said the town of Danbury had been to the commission and now asks the legislature to over- rule. Mr. Taylor said that was true and that's why the case comes to the higher court, and he quoted Leader Healey as saying the commission had never yet rendered judgment for the public good. If the act passes no in- Justice will be done the trolley com- pany. Mr. Eno said the utilities com- mission held the hearing in Danbury and no city officials attended, but the sheriff did summon in a few from the | highways and bywaya. The bill was | rejected by a vote of 108 to 87. At the opening of the afternoon ses- sion of the house a resolution camu from the finance committee authorizing the treasurer to issue bonds of $10,000,- 000 to meet the expenses of the state, an increase of $4,000,000 in the amount authorized by the general assembly of 1911. Mr. Lewis of the committee ask- ed for suspension of the rules for ac- tion upon the resolution. The rule specified that they be sold at a Frate | of four per cent. Mr. Ryce of West | Hartford spoke in opposition, deciaring that the bonds should be offered for sale without restriction. His motion to table for amendment prevailed. Subsequently Mr. Ryce offered amend- sold for less than par if in the opinion of the treasurer it would be for the in- terest of the state. Mr. Wilson op- posed the amendment and did not be- lieve In selling state bonds at less than par and they could be sold at four per cent. Mr. Avery of Groton favored selling at less than par rather than a four per cent. basis. He favered a higher rate and authority to the treasurer to seil as low as four, and was opposed to the amendment. A vote was taken and the amendment | was rejected. Mr. Avery of Graton thought the bill should be amended, but the eriginal bill was passed. The first business to be transacted by the house on Tuesday was the pas- sage of an act appropriating the sum of $1,000 to aid in the celebration of the centennial anniversary of the bat- tle of Stonington, te be held at Ston- ington Oct. §, 9 and 10, 1914. The act provides that the meney shall be paid | to BE. M. Pendleton, treasurer, when the comptroller is satisfied that town has raised an equal sum in con- | nection with the propesed celebration. | Mr. Magee of the apprepriations cem- mittee explained that the original bill called for an appropriation ef $5,000 and the whole matter was looked upon unfavorably by the eemmittee, but af- | ter learning additional details decided i to recommend $1,000. After the reso- | lution passed it was immediately | transmitted to the senate, where it was adopted in the afternoon. _Acts were passed making appropria- | tions for the state Insurance, state police and factory departments upon | recommendation of the committee on | appropriations and immediately trans- mitted to the senate. The resolutien appointing William C, Rungee judge of the boreugh court of Greenwich created a discussion that was bitter in the extreme. Mr. Wil- son of Bridgeport substituted the name of Wiliiam L. Tierney, a deme- crat, and praised his manliness aad excellent character. He then arralgn- ed the manner in which this court has been conducted and went so far as to say that Mr. Rungee while an officer of the court defended criminal cases before that tribunal. Mr. Koppleman of Hartford stated that Mr. Rungee, a member of the present house, was substituted by the committee for the name of Charles D. Burnes with- out petition or suggestion from any residents of Greenwich. The resolu tion was also opposed by Mr. Ryce of West Hartford. Messrs. Avery, Alcorn and Evarts spoke in favor of the res- olution, Mr. Avery saying that as a democratic member of the committee lcan: Mr. e of Stamford said he was a persenal friend of Mr. Rungee, but was elected to the legislature as a democrat and would vote for a demo- crat as judge of the court at Green- wich. Mr. Healey made the closing speech and urged in strong terms the passage of the resolution. The resolu- tion of appointment of Mr. Rungee was carried by a vote of 141 to 62, showing that many democrats voted with the republicans. In the senate !t was defeated. Resolution was taken from the house calendar on Tuesday. which provided for the commemoration in the publi> schools of the centennial anniversary of the treaty of Ghent. The act au- thorized the governor to appoint a commission of five of which she shall be ex-officio chairman, to prepare a suitable programme for exercises in the public schools commemorating the 100th anniversary of the peace initiat- ed by the treaty of Ghent in 1814 and to represent the state in any proceed- ings for the celebratien of the centen nial. The commission to serve with- out compensation and without charge for any expenses and shall have no authority to subject the state to any expense. After explanation by Mr. Tracy of Thomasion and opposition by Mr. Bree of New Haven, the bill was rejected. Mr. Lockwood of Stamford asked for suspension of the rules to take from the table the act concerning approval by the public utilities gommission of stock and bond !ssues of public service corporations, which was denied, ment which permits the bonds to be | the | he would vote for Mr. Rungee, repub- | quickly ruled by the speaker. Finally { Mr. Maltbie made motion that rules be suspended (the taking of bus- iness from the calendar) and that the { matter be made the order of the day for Wednesday at noon, and the motion was ruled out of order. Mr. Lockwood appealed from the ruling of the chair, but the ruling was sustained. The act concerning the ta 10 mills on a doilar on moto; hicles, to be paid to the secretary of state, and a part returned to towns, came to the house with majority and minority reports from the committee on finan-e. There was lengthy discussion on the matter, for and against, and Mr. Mitch- elson, president of the Farmers’ asso- ciation, said it was a good bill and ought to pass. Mr. Avery opposed be- cause it was destined to increase sal- aries and clerks in the office of secre- 13? of state. The bill was rejected by a Yo te of 98 to 72. An act extending the time in which the Tolland County Street Railway company may construct its railway was adopted after being amended, which provided that no stock shall be sold for less than par and must be sold for cash. There was discussion on the act con- cerning the emission of smoke, in which railroad locomotives are omitted, and which the public utilities commission. The definitely postpone was lost. Mr. Law- ler made amendment that included railroad locomotives. Mr. King said such amendment would lessen powers of the commission. ler replied that if there was to be smoke nuisance legislation be general. moved to postpone indefinitely and the motion prevailed by a vote of 78 to 72, or just one more vote than was necessary to prevail. The soldiers’ pension act, which pro- vides that each soldier shall receive annually from the state a pension of $30, and which was passed in the house and rejected in the senate, and then recommitted to the committee on corporations, was reported unfavorably Magee of the committee. Messrs. Baldwin, McMurray, Landon and W. P, Kelley spoke in favor of the bill and against the committee report, and Messrs. Ryee, Avery and Magee fa- | vored the rejection of the bill. The report was accepted and the bill re- jected. ‘The aot was rejected in the houss which enlarged the pewers and duties of the commissien te make repairs on | the capitol and to precure a site for a | new building for state officials. The intent was to appeint a cemmissien to investigate and make report te the next general assembly, previsien fer a reem for the speaker of the heuse and a lounging place for members. An adt that created discussion was one that reads as follows: “Oa and after the first day of January, 1914, no state’s attorney, and no as sistant states’ attorney, whose salary is $3,000 per annum or more, shall ap- the trial of any civil action tried to ~ jury in the county in which such | state’s attorney or assistant states’ at- | torney holds office.” Mr. Healey said | it would be a serious mistake to pass such a measure and there was no senss in disbarring from practice some of | the attorney generals of the state. Mr. Thoms of Waterbury favored the mat- the | leaves the whole smoke | nuisance business at the discretion of | motion of Mr. Geer of Lebanon to in- | the | Mr, Law- | it should | Mr. Thoms of Waterbury | recommended for rejection by Mr. | pear as counsel for any party during | | resentative Joseph S. to the lack of a two-thirds vote. There | ter, as it was an established fact that | were several points of order that were | state’s attorneys would wield an un- due influence in civil cases and shouid not be permitted to practice in the counties In which they reside. Mr. Avery favored the measure also, tel ing of the natural undue influence such attorney would have with retained by reason of such influence. The state attorney has also Influence over the court calendar and can often cause delays and thwart the ends of justice. He said these attorneys should be prevented f(rom practice in civil cases in their cwn counties and in the { interest of fairness and a step in the right direction. Mr. Maltbie of Gran- by sald the attorneys are men of the highest character and abllity and it would be wrong for them to be de- prived of taking up cases, for the sal- ary of the office is not attractive in it- self. Mr. Avery asked if there was any state attorney who would resign if this bill passed. Mr. Healey said that in his opinion the state attorney of Hart- ford county would resign if the bill became law. Mr. Evarts of Milford was opposed to the measure and he considered it an insult to the attor- | Fai Mr. neys of Hartford, New Haven. fleld and New IL.ondon counties. Taylor of Danbury was in favor said it should be extended to Tolland Windham and Middlesex counties. The practice in civil cases by the attorneys wag an injustice to the other lawyers in the case and should not be con- tinued. Mr. Lawler asked if the same cond’- | tions did not exist in the counties that were not inciuded in ‘the bill.

At the night session Tues- day, the number of acts on the calen- dar were materially reduced, but there is more than enough left to keep the solong busy on Wednesday until mid- night and then the end will probably not be reached, and a substantial nu- cleus of business will be left over for the consideration of the general as- sembly of 1915. 3 THEY DO “As Smiling as a Basket of Chips” A NEWLY SHINGLED ROOF Red Cedar Shingles NOT SHRINK OR SWELL AND RESIST DECAY.
