TWO CLUB RUNs-FOERNZER CHALLENGED.
POLICE GET THEIR ORDERS
CAPTAINS ARE INSTRUCTED TO SEE
THAT SPEED LAW Is EN-
FORCED.

There was considerable anxiety in automobile
circles last night. when 1t rumored that the
Police Department had decided to enforce strict
IL the speed ordinances against automobile
drivers to-day. With the clear weather, the out
mourning Of motor pleasure seekers will probably
be larger than on any previous day this year.
i is said that both the mounted and the bicycle
policemen have been instructed to keep sharp
lookout for speeding automobiles. and to take
offenders 10 the station without hesitation.
According 20 the police, there has been much
uncertainty regarding the new speeding ordi-
nancee ana that is the reason why so few ar
rests have been made Now the policemen say
they have received from headquarters their in
structions what TO do. and they are going to
do it

sioner Partridge has ordered a strict enforce

NEW PARTY IN CONNECTICUT
ECONOMIC LEAGUE TO PROPOSE LABOR
CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR

New-Haven, Conn, April ID (Special)--An-
nouncement is made to-day of a political
party in Connecticut, formed by the trades
unions Of the State. and organized to enter the
State campaign next fall for the Governorship
and control of the legislature The new move
rnent is in charge Of the labor leaders who have
succeeded within the last year in electing labor
Mayors at Bridgeport, Ansonia and Hartford
The platform Of the league is to contain only
three planBs: Equal representation in the Cen
eral Assembly for the people of the State. the
right Of trial by jury and the restriction OF gov
eminent by Injunction" According to a state
ment made to-day by one of the leaders Of the
league. the new party will have neither Demo
cratic nor Republican principles particularly. nor
be connected in any way with the Socialist Labor
party II Is expected that the movement Will
spread over the country.
The conditions that have brought the new
league into existence are partly strike troubles
and partly the attitude taken by the Constitu-
tional Convention in refusing what is regarded
as equitable representation TO the large centres
Of population. The movement started in Ansonla
a year ago in the great Farrell foundry strike,
which resulted in the arrest Of the present
Mayor-Stephen Charters-for melting strikers
to violence. and the issuance of the first in1unc-
ton bv a court in the country restraining strik-
ers from melting other worhngmen to strike
Ansonia was stirred greatly on account OF
this that the strike leader was elected Mayor
and the movement spread to Bridgeport ana
Hartford where labor mayors We're elected oy
large majorities over regular party Candidates
The successful trades unions now hope TO secure
the Governorship. and will go into the fan flght
prepared TO support popular platform dh'ds-
oristic to the Republican party mat IS repie
scented by the anti-reform delegates TO the coh-
vention.
The Economic League will not start an lnde-
pendent movement but will attempt to capture
one Of the marty conventions. As il is probaple
that the coming State campaign, proVloing tlIe
convention adiourns without revising the CON
stution as the cities want ii revised, VIII De the
hottest seen in this State for generatlol, IN
addition Of the labor unions as FACTOR III 'ie
