 Timothy E. Byrnes, first vice presi- dent of the N. T.. N. H. & H. R. R., tssated the subject of the evening from the viewpoint of the public service cor porations. Tn his opening remarks Mir. Byrnes paid a strong tribute to Presi- dent Hadley saying that he considered him the safest and sanest thinker of the day on economic subjects.
 Next to Yale the speaker thought sented had brought the greatest glory to New Haven. He attributed the great misunderstanding between the public and the railroad management to the fact that the latter had become so very large, and the neighborly relation which had formerly existed between the two had necessarily gone. The first requisite to the solution of the difficult ty Is to remove all feeling and i'll will. The men at the head of the corporation are no different from other men, and 1t is unjust to attribute to them less hon- esty of purpose than prevails among other men. There are honest men in the railroad business who are trying to conduct the business on the very lines laid down by President Hadley The aim of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad Is to give adequate service at reasonable rates and to con cede to the people the right to regulate.

 "The Relation of the Business Men | to the City was the subject of Josepl Porter's address. He said that New
 Haven had not taken advantage of hei ] natural facilities which are equalled il
 the case of but few cities and as a re
 suit she had lost much of her expor trade, while her smaller neighbors hay, profited at her expense.

 to keep politics clean To prevent poo1 nominations they should go to the prlm aries He asserted himself as strongly
 in favor of two parties of so nearly equal strength that they would keeI each other on their good behavior. Ht favored an increase in salary in the of | fee of chief of police so that a compe tent man could be secured and a larger appropriation thus increasing the eff ficiency of the department He alst declared himself in favor of meeting 1.-the expense of permanent improve, ments by bonds so that part of tht yurden might fall upon those who enjoy
