were unique and elaborate. the music
was superb, the refreshments were
ample and the best, and the crowd that
filled the big galleries with spectators
and thronged the white floor with

Kt the rear of the balcony, at equal
distances along the two sides and rear
of the hail, were colonial knots OF red
and white bunting with streamers'
each knot being encirclcd with "a

Around the face of the balcony the
decorations were festoons and wreaths
nf evergreen against u background OF
white, and enlivened with graceful
draining of red and white bunting. The
windows of the hall were draped in red
and white.
The stage. as center piece, was
treated deliberately. Across the entire

Tuesday afternoon Is usually quite a
busy time with the Legislative commit
tees. but yesterday was an exception.
Half dozen committees had hearings
scheduled. but there were too many
attractions outside the committee
rooms for most of the members and
most of the hearings were either adj
journed or else no attempt was made
to hold them. The committees on mill
tary affairs. taxation and manufac.
lures postponed their advertised hear
ms until later dates.
The committee on legal affairs had
an interesting hearing on the bill re.
lating to the transfer OF stock. This
bill repeats Section Of Chapter 29S of
the Public Laws Of 1897. The effect of
this would be to compel the recording
on the corporation book books of every
transfer of stock as collateral. This
bill is vigorously opposed by the banks
and trust companies of the State. and
strong array Of speakers appeared in
opposition to it. They claim that it
would, cause unnecessary delay. incon-
venience and expense to their business.
Those speaking against the bill INCLUDE

united all branches of the service in OPP

The main argument is that the appoint

from the appointments made during the

TRADE UNIONS CANNOT INSURE.

Boston, January 2s.-By q decision OF
the Insurance commissioner made today
the practice Of the trades unions Of the
state to insure their members against
sickness. death, loss of tools, loss Of work,
etc, is declared Illegal. The Insurance.
commissioner decision has taken the
members Of the trade organizations COM
pletely by surprise. 1t has been the opin-
ion that inasmuch as tho trade unions
were acting purely In charitable man.
nsr the revenue for the payment Of si,k
and death benefits having not been de-
rived from q special tax levied for that
purpose. but taken from the regular per
capita tax, the laws Of 1s97-9S making
IL compulsory for every labor organiza
ton having an insurance feature TO in
corporate under the laws of this state,
and to report ut specified times the full
extent of business done, did not apply to
proceedings of this kind. The insurance
commissioner 3 decision shows this Idea
to be erroneous
The trade unions Of this city, headed
by Cigarmakers' union. 81, will under
take to have the law 50 amended by the
present Legislature rs to allow trade
unions to continue their purely charit-
able work. The unions do not desire TO
become incorporated chiefly because as
sooiations of lAborers are voluntary and
as heir work does not partake Of a com
merciAl nature.
