Several senators said they had been informed during the course of the de- bate that Germany had long sought an‘ option on the canal route; that ef- forts first were made soon after France urdertook construction of a canal and had been renewed more recently. Members of the foreign relations com- mittee denied reports that the com- mittee had any documentary evidence cn the subject. “Of course, we have heard reports that Germany sought to obtain the Nicaraguan canal route” said Semator Stone, chairman of the committee. “Whether she offered $9,000,000 or $12, 00,000 or $20,000,000 1" do’ not kno We have no means of knowing. That Germany was actuated by the same motives in seeking this canal .route that France had in the original Pan- ama enterprise is_apparent to every- one. Personally, I think it would be to the great political disadvantage of the United States for any European government to have control of a canal route across the Pan-American isth- wus.” Champlons of the pending Nicara- guan treaty are sald to have cited Ger- many’s desires in urging its ratifica- tion,” Nicaragua having agreed to ac- cept the $3,000,000 offered by the TUnited States for the canal option and naval base in Fonseca bay. Senator Stone said late today that he had agreed to defer asking for a vote on the treaty until next Thurs- day, several democratig senators hav- ing’ notifled -him that they could not be present until thaf timie. LOST TROUSERS ON WAY TO CELL Embarrassing Scene on New London Street When Trousers Deserted Prisoner. Frank Thompson's aversion to sus- nders created an embarrassing ene in State street, New London, Friday evening. Officer Rehn had ar- rested Thompson and was lugging him off to durance vile, as they say it and all was well until the excursion reached the Western Union office. There Thompson's trousers deserted the party and he walked along clad only in fannels, Officer Rehn, who is somewhat of a diplomat, hurrled_Thompson into the Western Union office. The officer con- templated sending a night letter or- dering_a pair of suspenders, but fi- nally decided to get along as best he could without them. He dressed Thompson so as to make him_ pre- sentable and took him over to head- quarters. DUCATORS’ MEETING BUSINESS Ei Annuz| Sessions to Be Held at Hart- ford High School Auditorium Feb. 19.

Sufferers can get a measure of re- lief by keeping the feet dry, drinking plenty of lemonade and avoiding al- coholic beverages, but if you really want to get rid of rheumatism with all its agony, pain and misery you must_drive from your system every bit of poisonous secretions that lodge in_the joints and muscles.

The growth of the automobile de- partment connected with the of- fice of the secretary of state has been remarkable since it was es- tablished nearly nine years ago. It was not until 1907 that the receipts from the automobile business were kept scvarate from the receipts of the secretary’s office from other sources. The amount received from registrations and operators’ licenses for the year ending Sept. 30, 1908, was $61,747.50, For the year end- ing Sept. 30, 1915, it was $536,970,- 09.

This money has been spent in repairing the highways of the state. Not a penny of it has boen experded for other purposes, the expenses of the administration of the department not even being taken out of it Regarding Legislatipn. It was for the purpose of regulat- ing the speed of motor vehicles that the general assembly first took official cocnizance of their existence. It was not then tbough they could be made a source cf revenue to the state. At the session of 1901 a law was passed ONE OF SPRING'S DESIGNS FOR THE NEW NIGHTIE White and flesh colored crepe de chine may be used for this lingerie, with a tucked panel in Greek pattern.

Chicago Il regulating the speed and fixing the rate at 15 miles an hour outside the Limits of a city, and 12 miles an hour within. The legislators of that ses- sioa were particularly proud of their work in_regulating sthe speed of vehi- cles, and 1t is recalled that in the ex- change of felicitations at the end of the session reference was made to the automobile law and the prediction that the act would suffice for the ad- eqnate regulation of motor vehicles of every description for many years, per- kaps a generation. Within two vears the provisions of the statute of 1901 were found to be insufficient for their purpose. At tle ression of 1903 the first law was passed in regard to the use of merkers and the administration of it entrested to Secretary of Stato Charles G. R. Vinal. The law allowed owners of sutomobiles and other motor ve- hicies to obrain their markers where- ever they Fleased so long as they con- formed to thc standard which the statute prescribed. This standard re- quired that the letter C, indicating the state, and the number, should be raised, and three inches high. The numbers were given by the officials at the office of the secretary. The law did not provide for an operator's license, and the only fee demanded was hat for the registration of vehi- cles, $1 per car. Markers Provided By State At the session of 1905 a law _was passed which made it the duty of the secretary of state to furnish all mar- kers and to see that they were all alike. Theodore Bodenwein had suc- ceeded Mr. Vinal as secretary. The markers were sold to the owners of vehicles at cost price. a dollar a set. That act contained a provision to pre- ven: the swinging of the rear marker. In 1907 the fist tax was laid on automobiies at a rate from $3 to $10 according to horse-power. At the next session the secretary was frst given the rcwer tc hold hearings and to suspend licenses. Colonel Matthew H. Rogers, of Bridgeport was the s tary and suggested the impor lezislation that was enacted relating to motor vehicles at that session. He was the first administrator of the law. At the sessior of 1915 the distinction which made livery vehicles a separate class was abolished. Motor Department Established. For some vears after the first auto- mobile law was enacted the work con- nected with the adminisiration was done in the office of the secretary of state. When the of having c auarters, but . under the supervision of the sec- rctary. was recognized th s some diff uity experenced < suit- able 1oms.

The superini-ndent of the capitol acceded to the request of the recrctary for the room and also Fave the adjoining room. These rooms soon became cramped but the work of the fast growing department was con. tinued in 1t until a few months sinc® when Sccretary of State Charles C. rnes and Labor Commissioner Wi jam S. Hyde came to an agreement by which there was an exchange of rooms to the advantage of both and in addition the secretary was given the large corner room formerly reserved for the committee on cities and bor- oughs and also a new room which was constructed by taking off a part of the old supreme court room. The auto- mobile department has now ample quarters. Daisy is sald to be really “day’s REACHING THE SPOT it Has Been Done, So Scores of Nor- wich Citizens Say.
