Hall said he had come fo the conclusion it was better to keep out of contests over local judgeships. He would vote for the candidate for the Man- chester judgeship who was supported by Senator Bowers, in Bridgeport, the candi- date favored by Senator Delansy and in Norwich the man whose candidacy had the support of Senator Brown. Scnator James Graham of Lishon said it was a matter between the family of Senator Brown and Judge Barnes. He could not see how the committe brought in a report in favor of Mr. Libby. Senator Brown had buttonholed the members of the Sen- ate for Mr. Libby. Senator Brown denied the statement of Senator Gr: am and assured the sen- ate that there was no animus in his op- ition to the reappointment of Judge Barnes. He preferred not to give the reasons for his attitude and he would re- frain from doing so unless the senate de- sired a statement. . Senator Brown said Judge Barnes was a good hearted man but he was not a g00d judge. Mr. Libby was a native of Windham county. He was respected by evervone and was a hard working = re- an.

He (Senator Brown) replied: “When you do that I will orfsose it.”” He did that for the purpose of bolstering up his own ps- sition. Judge Barnes passed on the case of a man named Ryan, and thén said, “I let him down pretty easily; we may want to use his employer politically.” In a | street car strike he (the seriator) was ap- pointed to assist in prosecutio The union men carried on the strike.
