ROSENHEIMER INQUEST

after conferences with officials OF the company,
received two advances IN wages this year. The
first was on May /. when the wages were in
creased from $l4 TO SO a week and the second
TO SIG and the wages Of the helpers were fixed

Water Department is now opening Broadway I'm

The letter says that such work has been in

that the street has been constantly obstructed by

BRYAN ATTACKS HUGHES.
Can See Only One Side in Veto of
Rate Bill.
GBy Telegraph to The Tribune. J

Lincoln. Neb.. June Recommending on Gov
ernor Hughes's veto of the two cent rate bill,
". J. Bryan says:
IF Governor Hughes had been anxious TO
do justice to the people as he is to guard tho
railroads against injustice he would have signed
the bill and given the courts of New York a
chance TO suspend the law if ii made an un-
reasonable reduction in the earnings of the
roads.
He confesses that he has made no investiga-
tion and he does not know whether the law is
just or not. but the protest of the railroads has
more weight with him than the opinion of the
representatives of the people in the New York
Legislature.
He refers the question TO his public utilities
board. which he is to appoint but If in the ap-
poinunent Of the members Of this board he is as
solicitous about the railroads as he is in his
veto message the people cannot expect a great
deal from the board
He to be afraid that the railroads
might retaliate by introducing economies in the
service and readjusting rates. etc. He seems
10 overlook the fact that under any efficient reg
ulation of railroads the government. state and
national, is able TO compel the railroads to meet
the demands of the public. If the people are TO
rely upon regulation they will have to have
more courageous representatives in office than
