R0W-BoAT OVERTURNED.
Three WalIingford Men Had m Early
 Season swim in HnrbOr.

About 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, when Captain Gus Marshall was re- turning with a party of twenty-four in a large fishing schooner from an all- Iday fishing trip, he saw a rowboat over turned in the harbor and also per ceived three men struggling in the wa ter near it.
 With his boat he went to the rescue of the men and helped them from the water into his fishing boat. The three men, who were Henry E. Siden, John Lucey and Adolph Wagner, of Wal lingford, were taken to 123 Carlisle street, where they were taken care of.
 The three men had left early yester- day morning in the rowboat for a ride on the harbor and incidentally to try their luck at fishing. Siden, who is a very heavy men, attempted to move about in the boat in order to get a more comfortable position and To! over went the boat, the three men with it. They were floundering about in the harbor, shouting for help, when perceived by Captain Marshalrs fishing party.
 The condition of the three unfortu- nate men is by no means serious, al- though Siden has not quite recovered from the shock of so cold and so early bath in the ocean.

LEGATIONS STONED BY MOB.
Report of Outrage Against the Ameri-
 and Mexican in Guatemala.

San Antonio, Tex, April 2S.-A dis patch to the Express from Mexico City Isays:
 The most extreme indignation and wild excitement have been caused here by the report that the American and the Mexican legations in Guatemala city have been stoned by a mob of several hundred men, instigated to the act by agents of President Manuel Es- trada Cabrera, of Guatemala. There is evident a strong inclination to give ere dence to the report, and no official de- nial has been made, though the federal authorities refuse to confirm it. Mexican troops are mobilizing on the Guatemala frontier which action is be- lieved to be highly significant, though the department has stated that the mo-
 bilization of troops is nothing more than a move to insure strict neutrality and to protect Mexican interests against any remote danger from ire | sponsible, marauding bands. The mo-
 billed forces in the south will be un- | der the command of Brigadier-G General Antonio R. Flores, directly assigned to
 the duty by the war department, He will be aided by Captain of Engineers
 Salas, who has already left here for
 the Isthmus of Tehuantepec
 Reports are also current here that
 Minister Gamboa, representing Mexico l in Guatemala, has left that country and crossed into Mexican territory as
 the result of friction with Cabrera $
 government growing out of telegrams sent from Mexico 10 Guatemala rela- tive to the assassination of General
 Manuel Barillas.
 Passports are said to be in prepara-
 ton for Minister Manuel Girone, Gua-
 temala's representative in Mexico, for l his return to his own country

rorest Fires Warming Given.

The question of forest Or woodland fires is of great importance in country districts, especially during April and May, when most of these fires occur. Although Connecticut is not subject to the immense and devastating forest ! fires which characterize coniferous for est regions, the ground fires, which are everywhere SO common in the state, do very serious damage, Where they do not kill the timber outright they njure it's growth and make it susceptible to fungous diseases, which result in death sooner or later.
 | All young seedlings and sprouts are 1 killed, thus delaying for many years forest regeneration; and the humus O. vegetation mold is destroyed, SO that deterioration of the soil results from every fire
 It is safe to say that the almost worthless condition of thousands of acres in Connecticut is largely due to ! these fires.
 The people of the state should do all | m I0eT power lu prevent ltleSe iIeS,
 just as they would prevent the burn ing of buildings or other property Farmers burning brush should be particularly careful to select quiet days, and preferably do it toward nightfall, when there is little wind, They should also observe the law relative to the clearing of land about such fires.
 Teachers in public schools cannot celebrate Arbor day better than by inn pressing upon the minds of the children the evils of setting these fires, which are so often due to the child's love of excitement.
 Any one seeing forest fire should at once notify the fire warden in his neighborhood, and if he has information | regarding the setting of such a fire, 1 this should be imiparted to the warden. 1 The law gives one half of the fine col lected to persons furnishing such infor- nation The wardens of this region are as follows:

HARMONY IN CHICAGO.
Relations Between Employer and Elm
 nIoye Never So Good.

Chicago, April 2S.-The relations be- tween employer and employe were probably never so harmonious in Chic ago as they are now. In the past, on May 1, there have usually been ditfer- ences between the labor unions and the employers in Chicago, but this year there is scarcely a cloud on the indus trial horizon.
 Every union in the building industry, with the exception of the structural iron workers, has renewed contracts with employers. and the iron workers expect to reach a settlement without a strike. Machinists have demanded an increase of g cents a day in wages, but the indications are that there will practically be no trouble in putting the new schedule into effect Most of the larger firms in the city have signiled a willingness to grant the increase, and if any strikes are called May 1st they will' be confined to individual firms, The brick makers are now holding con- ferences with their employers and will probably reach settlement before next week.

.GOV. HUGHES SPEAKS ON
 STATE LEGISLATION
(Continued from First Page.)

There is a matter of particular in- terest with reference to the proposed commission for regulation of public service. To elect these commissioners would be a mistaken policy. That is part of the administrative work of the state the responsibility for which should be lodged in the governor, who should have the power of removal. Tn this way unity, responsibility and eff ciency of administration would be sec ured which others would be impossible.
 We do not want our offices conduct Jed by men who simply keep within the penal code, and do not outrage the moral sentiment of the community. We want efficient administrator, men who are not only honest but capable, men who have high standard of adminis- trative duty, who do not proceed along the line of least resistance, but are in- l tent on giving the service to which the public is entitled. The governors posi- I tlon would not be revieWable before the courts of law. but it would be review able before the bar of public opinion. VII AlSe VI W lNIlCSSOu III Illlo NbulllIS the most fragrant disregard of public duty on the part of those who enjoy public privilege. You have witnessed stock jobbery and financial operations which no one has the audacity to de- | lfend. You have seen economies en- forced at the public expense in order l that fixed charges and guarantees im- Iproperly created could be met You have seen the public convenience ignor- ed and the people herded together not simply when the pressure of traffic dur ling certain hours exceeded all available means of transportation, but at ather times when therewas no necessity eX- cept as it lay in proper fnanciering,
 Now, I propose that we shall have just and efficient regulation of public service I propose that the state shall exercise its powers to see that the peo- pie get their due. No legislation under the constitution can deprive men of their constitutional rights, or of an op- portunity to test them.
 "But 1t is a very different matter to provide a scheme of appeal which would delay every administrative pro- ceeding and tie up every order where nc such right is involved This would make commissioners mere scrlbes, and result
 in place of having five railroad commis- sioners, who would devote special at-
 tiOr to the subject and have opportuni.
 ty to become experts, in appointment oi
 five judges of the supreme court, who
 in addition to the magniture of theil
 judicial labors would be asked to un
 dertake the duties of administration
