Hearing in City Hall on Protest of the
 Business Men--New Haven Scored as Hayseed Town--Attorney Wolfe says
 Too Much Individual Interest. Too
 Little Public IRterest--Few Ask for
 Complete Repeal.
 Before the aldermanic committee on ordinances, Chairman Loos presiding, were delivered last evening the opin- Ions of number of New Haven citi- zens and business men on the new or dinance against signs which was to have gone into effect on January 1. About that date there arose a consider able opposition to the ordinance among business men, and protest bearing many names was presented to the board of aldermen. On that protest the committee held the public hearing last night.
 Most of the opponents of the ordin- ance desired simply that it's terms be modified, and did hot ask the repeal of the measure. Albert 0. Norton opened the discussion. He stated that he had signed the remonstrance and petition for the repeal of the ordinance, but it was now his opinion that 1t should be modified. He proposed the removal of all signs obstructing curbs and the per- mission of small signs not extending morethan three feet out from the build ing, He declared New Haven hay seed, non-progressive town, and thought the signs had great deal to do with it.
 Attorney Isaac Wolfe scored New Ravens unprogressiveness. q never saw" said he, "a step in advance taken by this city when someone did not rise up and want the city to take a step backward, We have our boards of trade, Chamber of Commerce and Bus theses Mems association, but as soon as something comes along that presses on the toes of any member of these as- sociatlons they look only to their own personal interests"
 This ordinance, he declared, was made necessary by the merchants themselves, many of whom violated the more moderate one that formerly pre- vailed.
 "The trouble in New Haven has been that individual interest has come first and public interest second"
 A, F. Wood, the druggist, said he would nathan bn 1o mn raI, as now existing than the continuance of present conditions, He favored a modification, however,
 John P. Judson, the Ghapel street fruiterer appeared against the ordin- ance He asked for repeal, saying that then measure was altogether too radi- cal.
 John Semon, manager of the Hauff Ice Cream company, also opposed the ordinance. He said 1t was too severe on storekeepers in genera Merchants are beginning to realize that signs are of great use to them in thsir business. He stated that he believed that signs paid, and that New Haven merchants were realizing that. He believed that the merchants ought to be permitted to put up an attractive dsfice to attract business.
 MT. Hardy, the cigar man. appeared against the audience.
 Attorneys Ernest Averiu and Cressy, representing business men, M. F. shan ley, Arthur A. Hermann Of the Pabst cafe, Dr. Welch, the chiropodist, also appeared against the ordinance as it stands.
 Ex-Alderman Elliott declared that the signs ought to come down as soon as possible. There should be slight

Phnnnrrnnhic Novelty.

For producing the photographic pos
tai card an apparatus is used in
France which records the human voice
upon a piece OF pasteboard Of the form
Of the card. According to one report
the phonocard possesses numerous adj
vantages. The recording Of the voice
Is done by an ordinary monograph or
simple construction, by means OF a
pencil with a sapphire point This
pencil makes its impression upon a
suitable substance called "sonorine"
spread upon the surface OF the card.
The "sonorine," which can be easily
spread over pasteboard, possesses all
the properties Of a wax cylinder. and is
in reality the invention. The signs
are impressed in form Of a spiral. be-
ginning at the margin of the card and
ending in q very small circle, and are
impressed 80 deeply that the stamping
by postal authorities can only destroy
two or three words. The card has
room for rs to so words. BY its aid
people who cannot write may now send
communications through the post that
would be more easily understood than
the written kind.
