The governor of Connecticut for the term of 1917-1919, who republi- cans Delieve, and many democrats concede, will be Marcus H. Holcomb, will have e new judges to appoint, and, in addition to the new appoint- ments there.are five judges whose terms expire during the administra- tion of the next governor, and these five, will, of course, be reappointed. The constitution of this state dis- qualifies a man from occupying a place on the bench after he passes his seventieth birthday anniversary. This provision within recent years disqualified former Gov. Simeon E. Baldwin from continuing as chief justice of the supreme court, and after he was retired from the chief justiceship he was nominated and elected governor of the state and re- elected *o the office of governor, thus serving for two terms as the state’s chief magistrate. Two years ago, when Governor Holcomb was nominated by the republicans for the sovernorship, he was a judge of | the superior court and was nearing | the age of disqualification. In facts at the time of his nomination, his successor on the bench had been named by Governor Baldwin, and just as Chief Justice Baldwin, short ly after he retired from the bench, became govdrnor, Governor Holcomb shortly after he retired from the su- crnor Holeomb, succeeding Governor ed the age a justice. me cou rs old on of 70 this city, tices, be- next be »vern e of the su- the supreme | h would the app early vear, overnor to forthw! appointment to and the be made next th it su- o session ppointment by call for confirmation by the senate.

The other judges who will so up for reappointment are: Justice George W. Wheeler of the supreme and Judge Edwin B. Gager, S. Case, Lucien F. Burpee, rdiner Greene.

It is no exaggeration to say that in practically every known natural region of the North Atlantic coast the lobster fishery is either denleted or in a state of decline. The evidences of this can- dition are to he found in steadily in- creasing prices a in the statistics of fisheries. The market price, or cost to the censumer, has steadily .advanced in direct ratio to the steady decrease in the market supply. From 1889 to 1899 the annual crop was reduced one-half while its value had more than doubled, In Maine, which in some years has produced two-thirds of the entire out- put of lobsters, the produce fell off in 20 vears over 2,600,000 pounds, while its value advenced fourfold. In Massa- chusetts the catch of 1900, though only half as great as that of 1880, was worth more than the total catch of 10 years before. Connecticut has a ilar story to tell, and it is only a sound and’ essentially for the entire fishery that will check the constant and ever-increasing drain that is now surely and the lobster to extinction. largest er on_record was ken in the of 1397 off Atlanti Highlands, weighed 34 pounds and meas inches, total At o go. 10 or 12 pound lobster 5 uncommon, yet present none of this class find the perior court bench, became Gov- an lobster lays Baldwin, and the indications are that 1 two years.

MANY CROWDED STATION TO SEE PRESIDENT WILSON imon, ary, Albert Careful Precautions Taken to Safe- guard Presidential Party. President and_ Mrs. W in New London Monday aft i marked by the careful pr son's arrival rnoon was autions to isafeguard the presidentia against interference.

Thomas J. Jeffers, Only once did the secret service men edge up close to the president, while others of their number drove back the crowd, when a-man of foreizn ex- traction attempted to push his way through the gathering in the direction of the-natlon's chief executive. That was at the raflroad statiom while the president, Mrs. ‘Wilson, Miss Margaret ‘Wilson and Dr. Harry M. Lee, were walking from' the private Pullman car drawn up on the siding to the right. in Lower State street was lined on ither side with people long before the amrival of the 4.06 train, on the end of which the president’s private Puliman was attached. Many others took up an tageous position on the overhead bridge. Captain Heney, head of the secret | service department at New York, ar- rived in the city early Monday after- moon and under bis direction arrange- ments were speedily completed for the arrival of the chief executive aud.his ., One of his first-duties was o DELEGATES TO CONVENTIONS. | get in touch with Lieutenant Jeffers at police headquarters with whom he made arrangements for a police guard to reenforce the secret service body guard member of the day division rtrolmen was detailed to report at railroad station shortly before 4 Lieutenant Jeffers took charge detail. Some time prior to al of the train, when it w he throng was steadily i o'clock. Heney suggested ropes stretched to assist in checking the crowd. Four automobiles waited in lower State street from 3.30 until the arrival | of the train. Captain Heney directed the placing of these cars. Three were red in a straight line and secret rs passed to the police that they to occupy the first car. Directly ind the police car was the machine of Dr. Harry Lee, driven by the physician, and occupied by President Mrs. Wilson, and Miss Margaret on. Four secret service men rode the running boards, so that the chief executive was completely shield- ed when the car started off at full speed up State street in the direction of the Mohican hotel. Directly in the réar of the presi- car was a third, filled to over- with secret service men in of Captain Heney. A four- passenger machine of the coupe type, which had been lef: standing on the opposite side of the street was not used by the party. The crowd which awaited the presi- dent in State street in the vicinity of the Mohican was fully as large in pro- | portion to that which had gathered at the railroad station.: Members of the pelice department headed by Lieuten- ant Jeffers had considerable difficulty in forcing an entrance to the main lobby of the hotel through the crowd of several hundred, all eager to look upon the president. Lieutenant Down- ing and Officer Rudd of the state po- lice also joined the force, and with the arrival of the secret service men everything was in readiness for the party. Police and secret servic agnts formed a fringe on the outside of the throng until the president and party were safely lodged in their apartments on the sixth floor. Two moving picture men, one of whom had made the trip from New York on the same train with the pres- idential party, attempted to obtain photographs, but their efforts were in vain. Strict orders had been given to the police to see that no moving pictures were taken and these were carried out to-the letter. Several at- tempts were made, but each time a secrct service agent or the military attaches who have been with the Mex. ican-American joint commission at the Griswold, frustrated the plans.- Everything was carried out in ap- ple pie -order under the direction of Captain Heney and a noteworthy fea- ture was the fact that it was attend- ed by as little excitement as possibie. as possible. When all was completed and the party was safe under the roof of the Mohican'hotel, Captain Heney complimented Lieutenant Jeffers on the able manner in which his men had essisted in handling the situation. ‘Throughout the entire eveminy a .small crowd waited on the sidewalk in “front_oi_the_Mol _in the hope of 3 R TONY RINORDA’S LIFE IS CRUSHED OUT. Track Cleaner Caught Between Pit and Freight Car. Tony Rinorda, residir street, New London, jured in th h pit at Midway shortly before § o'clock Tuesday morning when he was crushed between a New York, New Haver and Hartrord freight car and the wall of the pit. He was rushed to the Lawrence hospital, but was be- vond human aid, and died at 10.08 o'clock. Rinorda was employed as a track | cleaner by the New Haven road and was engaged in this capacity in the pit. He was cleaning the tracks be- tween the end of the pit and a freight | car which was standing alone when a | i switcher backed into the pit to couple to_the freight car The crew of the engine did mot know thc Italian was behind the car and the latter evitlently did not know the switcher was to pick up the car. As the engine bumped into the car it was driven up against the wall and Rinorda was caught. He was fright- fuliy injured. A call was sent for the Lawrence ambulance and a special train was made up to take the injured man to New London. The train was met at the station by the ambulance and the railroad’s physician. At the hospital the injuries were discovered to be a compcund fracture of the right leg and elbow and internal injuries, from which it was seen recovery v im- possible. Rinorda leaves a wife and several small children. He is the third mar injured in the Midway yard during the past ten one other naving died from injuries received in the coal pocket at that place. THOMPSON FAMILY REUNION. Eighth Biennia! Gathering Was Held at Ellington. The Thompson Family association held its eighth biennial reunion Sat- urday in Ellington. The hostesses and host were Mrs. Jane T. Kimball and Mr, and Mrs. John T. McKnight cf Ellington, and their guests began to arrive an hour béfore noon. To each was given a badge showing by its initial letter the particular line bf descent among the children of the em- igrant family, settlers in Melrose about 1720. . Of special interest were 50 coples of the newly completed Thompson gen- ealogy, compiled by the secretary of the association, Mrs. Mary A. Elliott, seeing the president and shortly after 9 o'clock their persistence was reward- ed when the president and Mrs. Wil- son came from the hotel and were rushed in a waiting automobile down State street to the wharf, where they | boarded a waiting launch for the pres- ident’s private yacht Mayflower, which has been in the vicipity of New Lon- don since the arrival of the Mexican- Anaedm Jjoint commission.

The treasurer's re- port showed a balance of about $165. | The report of the treasurer of the memorial committee, John H. Mec-' Knight, showed a_ balance of about $340 on hand, the interest on the pres- ent fund being just sufficient for the' care of the Thompson plot in the Bi- lington cemetery. Royal W. Thomp- son, a member of the committee, re-: ported that the Thompson etones in the cemetery at Melrose were in need | of resetting and the-entire plot there should be graded and cared for.
