4. c. Hayden, representing the Car

hour bill before the House committee on
labor. lie said the enactment of the
measure would drive from the field every
large institution taking government con-
tracts. He said also that it would turn
over the manufacture of the supplies of
the government to he small contractor
and would increase the cost of the same

cent. The Carnegie company, he said,
once made the experiment OF changing its
factory method from two shifts Of men
working twelve hours each to three shifts
working eight hours. The result was that
the product of that factory decreased 20
per cent. Another objection to the bill
was that if a laborer should work one or
two minutes overtime and the government
Inspector should see him and report the
case, the employer would be subject 10
the penalty provided for violating the Law,
although he might be innocent of any de-
sign TO do so. More than this, he said,
the bill was so drawn that it made the
inspector the final arbiter; the courts
could not go back of the report of the in

THIRTY HURT IN WRECK.
Two Trolley Coaches on Interurban
Collide Near Lafayette, Ind.


Thirty persons We're injured in a head
on collision Of trains on the interurban
road between Lafayette, Ind, and the
soldiers home. Those hurt were chiefly
veterans, and owing to their advanced
years it is feared the shock will prove
fatal to many. The soldiers had been Wis
iting the old battle-ground near there and
recalling old memories. The car had
started on its return to the home and he
motorman thought the track was clear for
a fast run. The car was going at rapid
rate, when another car was seen coming
from the opposite direction. The motor
men of both cars realized the danger and
reversed the levers. The speed however,
was too great and the cars crashed into
each other, burying the victims beneath
pile of wreckage. Those who escaped
harm at once went to the rescue Of The
victims, and they were soon removed.

NIAGARA FALLS BILL VETOED.
Governor Higgins Sees Danger in
the Wording of the Measure.

Gov. Higgins of New York vetoed the
bill passed by the Legislature to regulate
the amount of water which may be taken
from the Niagara river for power pur-
poses. In his veto memorandum the Gov
ernor points out that the bill provides
that the rights of existing corporations
shall be limited and restricted to take
from the river a quantity of water equal
to the quantity which said corporations
can by virtue of their present rights draw
under their present charters" This pro-
vision" says the Governor, either is
meaningless as being only declaratory of
the present law or else it doubles the
quantity of water which such corporations
may lawfully use"
