At one point 8 young girl ran out from a florists shop and tossed a handful of long-stemmed carnations to the platform of one of the cars. Lifting their caps and smil- ing, several of the men leaned far out and caught the flowers The cars were halted then, while young women brought clusters of carnations and roses from the shop and offered them to the men.

" Now and then a stone or brick was thrown, but the guilty man, or boy, hidden in the recesses of the mob, es- capped detection.

WILL LOOK AFTER GAME HIGHER UP Senator Atwater Determined In His Fight In the
 Legislature. TO SPEND TIME FOR IT. House Rejects Adverse Re port on E. H. and M. c.
 Petition.
TO SPEND TIME FOR TT.

Hartford, May 9.-The Times this ev- ening prints the following:
 Senator Francis Atwater of Meriden, representing the Thirteenth district, called at the Times office this morning The senator was explicit in his state ments. He did not desire any defense Of his course on the part of the Hart ford Times, but he wishes 1t distinctly understood by the Times that he was abundantly able to take care of him. self. and he also said his call was for the purpose of giving the facts of the trolley situation. The statements al- ready published, both as news and edi- terial. were false.
 As a senator he had been sent here by his district to aid in the construc- tion of trolley road between Meriden and Middletown. That road had no connection in any way with any gi- gantio trolley scheme that he knew of. His election came about on the demo- cratic ticket, but a thorough indepen- dence in politics. His election was made sure from the fact that the Con- solidated road had consistently defeat
  dletown people for trolley transporta- ton. These defeats had come about after solemn promises from President Hall to build the road. He had also the assurance of President Mellen that 'the dog in the manager policy of the road had been discarded, and in the future there would be no opposition to trolley building, providing the Consolidated road itself did not desire to build. But 1t was evident to him that the same tactics were being pursued, and meant defeat for the present charter.
 This Is the situation, the senator ex- plained. Such being the case, he was not at present taking any interest in the trolley scheme. There was anoth- CT feature, which had now developed, of interest to the whole state. What he desired to emphasize was that he should girop the trolley contest, and from this time on give his attention Ito game higher up" There would be, in his opinion, some further exposures of present lobby conditions at the capitol. These future sensations would, in his opinion, interest the 800,OOO to 100000 people of Connecticut, and were of very much greater consequence than the rights and privileges of the people in- terested in the trolley between Meriden and Middletown.
 Having placed the Times in the pos- session of the facts in the trolley sit- uation, he ased for no defense, and, so far as Mir. Robbins was concerned, he had this to say; He may be well known in Hartford, but he Is very un- favorably known everywhere else in the state.'
 The recommittal of the charter was for the purpose of killing 1t, and for that action he cared very little. It was his purpose when the matter came again before the senate to withdraw his name from the list of the ten incor- porators, named in the charter. He probably, should do so, and look aftetr "the game higher up."

 TO BE ACCEPTED First Panel In Haywood Case Exhausted at Open
 ing Session.
100 NEW MEN ORDERED.
Absence of Crowds and Demonstrations a Strik-
 ing Feature.

Boise, May Civilian D. Haywood, the first alleged participant in the averaging conspiracy by which 1t is averred the assassination of Frank Steunenberg was plotted and executed, was placed upon trial for his life to- day. Counsel for state and prisoner entered at once upon the examination of prospective jurors and Kept steadily at the task for five hours. No Juror was finally accepted, but substantial progress was made and the indications are that jury may be obtained by the end of next week The opening day of the trial was earnest and business like Its striking feature was the ab- sence of crowds or demonstrations. At no time, morning or afternoon, was the court room more than half filled and the streets forming the court house square contained not a single loiterer.
 The case was halted shortly before o'clock by the exhaustion of the grand jury panel and adjournment was taken until Monday, Meantime the sheriff will summon a special venire of one hundred men. The eleven men under examination, but not yet finally accepted or rejected, were locked up and will be closely guarded.
 Haywood was brought to the court room sharp at 10 in the morning. He found his family in chairs to the right of his seat, in front of which were his counsel. He devoted more attention to his youngest daughter than to any one else, and took practically no part in the selection of jurors. Many men in similar jeopardy make close study of their prospective jurors and frequently express their personal preference, but Haywood gave no sign of emotion, but sat quietly throughout the day. Mrs, Haywood and the older daughter stood the ordeal apparently well, but the younger child cried after the examina- ton of talesmen began, Mrs. Haywood and her children did not attend the afternoon session.

FULLY FORTY INJURED BAD WRECK AT CHICAGO Burlington Train Leaves Track at Crossing
 Woman Killed.

Chicago, May 9.--One woman was killed and three score other persons were injured to-day in wreck on the Chicago, Burlington 6 Quincy railroad at the crossing with Hamlin avenue.
 The woman whose life was lost was Mrs. Mary Miller, widow of Thomas Miller, formerly freight traffic man ager of the Burlington road. MT. Mill Ter died eighteen months ago.
 Fully forty passengers were slightly injured. The seriously, injured were:
 Assistant United States District At torney Robert Childs, of Chicago; Misses Elizabeth and Sarah Miller, daughters of the woman killed; Mrs Pauline Moranz, East Grove, H., Ka therine Moranz, daughter of Mrs. Mo rang, may die.
 The train runs between Aurora, Iill. and Chicago. It consisted of four cars, filled with passengers. The cause of the accident is not known, but it is believed to have been the spreading of the rails, although by some of the pas sengers 1t was said that something was out of order with the tender of the To- comotive.
 The train was running forty miles an hour, when the locomotive left the rails, ran along the road bed for 75 feet and rolled down a slight embank- ment, carrying with it the first pas- senger coach. The other cars left the rails, but did not go down, as the en- zine and first coach had fallen in such way that they acted as prop for the cars in the rear. All the passengers in the first coach were more or less hurt. Mrs. Mary Miller, who was killed, was thrown down between two seats and a mass of wreckage piled upon her. She died while being taken to the hospital. Mrs. Miller was accompanied by her daughters, Misses Elizabeth and Sarah Miller, but both of whom were badly injured, each sustaining a fractured leg.
 Immediately after the accident, the wreckage of the forward car burst into flames, but these were promptly extin- guished by the members of the nearby company of the fire department.
 Erfgineer Newlands of the wrecked train was badly scalded and severely cut about the head, but he assisted in the rescue work until all the passengers had been taken away. He declared that he was abolutely in the dark as to the cause of the disaster He said:
 ''The track was abolutely clear as far as I could see, Something must have happened under the engine.

REJECTS THE REPORT.
House Would Grant Petition
 of East Haven Road.

Hartford, May 9.-The resolution amending the charter of the East Ha- ven and Morris Cove Railroad company was taken from the house calendar and debated to-day. This subject has been the cause of much controversy In railroad circles. Those in favor of the measure and those opposed have been active for weeks. A large number of petitions asking for favorable action on the resolution have been received by the legislature. The spicy debate in the senate Wednesday was one of the results of the controversy
 The matter came before the house on the unfavorable report of the com mlttee on railroads. MT. Burnes, of Greenwich, said that, as so much has been said and written on the subject, he would like to give some of the legisr lative history of the matter.
 MT. Burnes said that the company was incorporated in 1893. He read sec- tions of the act incorporating the East Haven and Morris Cove Railroad com pany, showing that the company had extensive powers. He said that the company is both a steam and electric road, and has powers to sell to any other company. Such company should not be fostered by the state.
 In 1897 the company's lines were ex- tended to East Haven. Two years lat CT further extension was asked for and was granted. In 1901, 1903 and 1905 other extensions were desired and were granted.
 MT. Burnes understands that in 1905 the people representing the company told the committee on railroads that they would not ask for further exten- tions, but would organize the company and would build the road Now the compsny comes in and asks for further extensions, seeking to extend its lines on one side from North Branford to Guilford and on the other side from Fair Haven to New London. The ques- tion of building the road is not the only

'sHOREMAN'S STRIKE.
Men Looking for Something More sub-
 tantiaI Than Sympathy.

New York. May 9.-While the mana gers of the translantic steamships and of some of the coastwise lines were sending their vessels away light to-day, the striking longshoremen devoted their energies chiefly to organization. Now that the protracted period of idle ness has become a serious matter with the men, the leaders recognize that something more substantial than the bond of sympathy which has thus far held them together will be required if the issue is to be fought out in busi- ness-like way The first organization was affected this afternoon in Brook lyn, where hundreds of delegates from the various piers, extending from New town creek, Long Island City, to Bush's stores on the bay in South Brooklyn. convened at Prospect hall and formed Longshoremen's union No l, of Brook lyn.
