MEIirIEN CRITICISED.
Railroad Men Object to Action Con- corning Freight Car Rentals.

New York, Dec. 4-some plain talk was indulged in to-day by railway of- flcers over the action of the New York, New Haven & Hartford, the Boston & Albany and the Boston & Maine railroads in serving notice of with drawal from the per diem agreement on charges for freight cars.
 The movement to avoid paying the regular 50 cents per day rental for the use of cars belonging to other com panies was started by the New Haven, and if it succeeds, so railway men con- tend, the work of some twenty years will be undone.
 According to an officer prominent in the American Railway association, the ultimate object of Imposing the per diem charge, as agreed upon by all roads, was to break up habit some lines had formed of using the cars of other companies rather than supply their own. At first three-fourths of one cent a mile was the rate agreed upon.
 It was soon found, that the worst of- lenders gladly paid that rental rather than buy their own cars, so the rat6 was increased fraction, After expert ments, lasting fifteen years, the deci- sion was finally reached that the niiIe- age reports made by the roads hiring cars from other companies were unre- liable. The straight per diem charge of twenty cents was then enforced. By degrees 1t was increased to fifty cents the rate now prevailing.

ENGINEER FISHER
 TESTIFIES TO-DAY
tcontinued from First Page.)


 scene at the wreck, after giving the details of his run from Union c just prior to the collision with Fish CTS train, and testified that Fisher said to him just after the crash: Bill, what was he (T'isher) thinking of?" Flynn told Eaton to keep quiet and not talk so much for everything he said might go against him later. The bad weather on the night of the wreck, which is another point all the witnesses have to confirm. was dwelt upon at length, the conductor backing up the statements of the former wit nesses that it was raining, blowing and freezing.
 Mir, Blatchley was the next witness. He was put on by the state and told of his going through the car with Con- ductor Eaton soon after 1t left Water" bury, checking off the passengers on prepared lists which each had. Other details of the trip were described and in cross examination he said that he did not see Eaton make an effort to pull the signal rope
 After one question was asked Con- ductor Flynn, the defense called the accused man. He gave long account of his service with the road, reviewing all the runs during his eighteen years of service with the road. He had been an engineer eight years and during that time his life was spent in the cab of freight engine. His passenger runs were few and far between and he admitted that he was not qualified to ta1e a passenger train over the Naug- atuck division at night. "A bunch of time slips for dates covering dailyl runs all through the year 1906 and part of 1907 were identified, these being freight runs all over the road They showed that on some days the engineer worked twenty-one hours at stretch. They were introduced to show that the defendant had had little experience as a passenger engineer and that he was accustomed to run slowly and there fore was likely to miscalculate distance while running fast moving train. Especially was this so, it was shown, on unfamiliar territory.
 Fisher was then temporarily excused and Mir. Tarr was called. He testified regarding the weather on the night of the wreck, saying that it was about the same in New Haven as if was in Waterbury He was closely cross-ex- amined by Assistant State Attorney Kellogg, who tried to have the wealth CT observer admit that conditions in Waterbury and New Haven were lihe- ly to be somewhat different. The tes- timony was unimportant
 The defendant was again called to the stand and went Into detail regard ing rules and regulations of the road. He identified orders, described the pos ition of the whistle which was suppos- ed to have been given if the conductor had pulled the cord and was about to relate the details of the wreck when court was adjourned.

ROAD TO YESTERDAY
Ingenious Play With Bright Dialogue
 -The Speech" Habit.

The world of fantasy, and dreams was let loose in the Hyperion last night, the Read to Yesterday being the vehicle of transition. In the mad scramble for originality playwrights have searched the past, the present and the future for material and some times got 1t but it remained for two women, Beulah Dix and Evelyn Suth- erland to make a combination of fact and fancy which connects two periods 800 years apart. Two acts, the first and the last, deal with the period of 1903, the two middle acts of the play have to do with the period of 1903. where the characters of the later per- iod first live and move and have their being but in quite, different spheres, An American girl fascinated by the modern sights of medieval London wishes herself back in the land of TO- rnances, where there were real men as the plays have it who could and always did vanqnish dozen single handed" By some necromancy con- nected with midsummers eve she gets her wish and the dial is turned back three centuries. The land of romance and strong men proves to De anything but pleasant and the adventurous one has some unpleasant adventures until with the aid of young man in leather suit, not chauffeur, she finds the road back from yesterday and arr rives, in the last act, in the modern studio she started from, pretty well satisfied to let matters of the past alone.
 The play Is an ingenious one and the dialogue bright. It gives lot of opportunities for the actors, particu- larly in the acts dealing with the early period where people ate with their knives, lords of the realm married where they wished and witchcraft and murder fourished Minnie Dupree was the central figure In Eispeth Tyrell, modern, and Lady Elizabeth Tyrell me- dieval Her winsomeness and earnest ness and elaborate freedom from stagely tricks quite charmed the audi ence, and to show its appreciation the audience literally dragged her forth twice to make a speech. New Haven has gone mad about the subject of speech by the star. It Is demanded at every play at the end of the second act and is form of idiocy hard to under stand as the star not once in a thous- and times has anything to say and can't say it If she or he has, Miss Du- pree finally silenced the tumult by say- ing thank you" which had the desir- ed effect. Is it possible that New Ha- ven audiences want more than their moneys worth? Next they will be asking that the star turn three back sonersaults after the second act!
 Miss Dupree had a good company with her and the performances were most creditable in every way.

CURRENCY COMMITTEE.
Sub Committee of Five Appointed to
 Draft Relief Bill.

Washington, Dec. 4.--The newly appointed house committee on bank ing and currency held it's first meet, ing to-day, spending two and one-half hours in discussing the currency ques- ton in several of It's phases. At the conclusion of the meeting several of the members stated that as result of the conference the members of the committee were no nearer togther than they ever had been.
 The only definite action taken at the meeting was the authorizing of the chair to appoint subcommittee of five to draft and submit currency bill to correct the present financial sltua- tion. There will be no hearings before the committee until the subcommittee has finished Its task and the complet- ed draft Is in the hands of the chair@ man.
 The recurrence of two phases of currency discussion marked the con- ference These were The creation of elasticity in the currency and the dis position of reserve balances In national banks. The committee was apparently agreed that 1t will sanction no move to increase the bulk of paper money, but will confne itself to the consider ation of the best means of injecting elasticity
 The plan of providing for the issu- ance of national bank credit notes, which can be instantly drawn into cir- oulation when general conditions re- qulre an increased currency and retire. ment as promptly when the need has passed, was presented and discussed at some length

CONDUCTOR SUSPENDED
Waterbury Man Who Figured in
 Trolley Accident.

Waterbury, Dec 4.--Notwithstanding the story told by Gateman Dan Camp bell of the Bank Street crossing of the Naugatuck Division it appears the trolley company officials seem to think that Bank Street trolley car bound for the Center had narrow escape from being struck by the Winsted ex- press Sunday afternoon. and have ac- cordingly suspended the conductor of the car, Patrick Rogers.
 Rogers, by the way, neglected to get tho names of witnesses to the affair, and was engaged in that work yester- day, He expects to be reinstated in a few days.
 The car, it is claimed, was caught between the gates, and had only cleared the tracks when the train came laundering along.

KNOX BOOM NOW ON
Pennsylvania Republican Con gressional Delegation Comes
 Out Squarely.

Washington, Dec. 1.-The boom of Senator Philander C. Knox, of Penn sylvania, for the presidency was for mally launched at notable banouet in this city tonight when the Penn sylvania republican congressional dele gation placed itself squarely on record in favor of the Pennsylvania senator as President Rooseveit's successor. The occasion was dinner given by former Representative Joseph c. Sibley, of Pennsylvania. to the Pennsylvania del- egation in congress. Mr Knoxs can- didacy was hailed most enthusiastical- ly by his colleagues in congress. Repre- sentative Burke, of Pittsburg, was the first speaker and his remarks evoked frequent applause.
 Senator Knox spoke, expressing his gratitude for the feeling demonstrated and closed by saying that the repubn- can party will name the next presi- dent of the United States, and it's choice, wherever it may fall, will re- ceive unanimous republican approval.
