Repeal of Present State Laws an Ab-
 soIute Necessity.
 Hartford, April 2.--Legislation that would repeal many of the present auto mobile laws and regulations was urged this afternoon by number of men in- terested in motor vehicles, the speed law especially being attacked The hearing was before the committee on roads, rivers and bridges and bihs con- cerning tn etaxation of automobiles and their numbering, use and speed were included in the list of proposed meas ures discussed.

 What MT. sherman Told the Presi-
 dent.
 New York, April 2.-E. H. Hartman late tonight gave out the following statement in response to the statement made public by President Roosevelt at Washington to-day:
 For many years have maintained an intimate, confidential correspondence with my friend, Mir. Sidney Webster. What I wrote him and what he wrote me was, of course. intended for our eyes alone. In the course of a letter which he wrote me in December, 1905, he warned me against being drawn in to politics, and questioned whether had any political or party instinct united to what he was pleased to call my business instinct. This drew from me the reply to MT. Webster's inquiry which, in substantially correct form has been stolen and published. This letter was written on January 2, 1906, at a time when no one could doubt cordiality of my relations with the president.
 About ten days ago ! was told of discharged stenographet who was try ing to sell to some newspaper a repro duction from his notes of one of my private letters. I could hardly believe that any matter so obtained would be accepted or published, yet I made every effort to prevent it. When I learned late yesterday afternoon that a New York newspaper had transcript of these notes I notified the publisher at once of the facts, and urged upon his attention the gross outrage that the publication of it, under such circum- stances, would Involve. While deplor- ing, of course. that the sacredness of 8 private correspondence should thus be violated I cannot withdraw anything in the letter.
 'T have read the presidents state sment. I am most anxious to treat him and his other utterances with consid- eration due to the high office which he holds. Nevertheless, I feel bound to call attention to certain things in re- gard to which he does me injustice.
 'Tn his letter to MT, Sherman he clearly seeks to convey the impression that ttle personal interview with him in the fall of 1904 was of my seeking, and not his He says:

THE NEW MOVE IN EDDY CASE.
Motion for Substitution of New PIain-
 tiffs Mrs. Eddy's Answer.

 Concord, N. H., April 2.-A motion for leave to intervene, involving the sub stitution of duly appointed trustees as plaintiffs in place of the next friends" was the answer of Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy, founded of the Christian Science religion, made through her counsel, in the suit brought to compel an account ing of her property The motion, which was filed to-day, came as dis- tinct surprise.
 By a deed of trust Mrs. Eddy has transferred her entire estate, with a few minor reservations, to these trus- tees, Henry M. Baker of Bow, Archibald Mcclellan of Boston and Josiah E. Fer nald of Concord. These trustees are bonded to the extent of half a million dollars that they will preserve and pro- tetct her estate.
 It is now claimed that Mrs. Eddy cannot be compelled to appear in court in connection with the pending litiga- tion. The trustees are empowered to prosecute and defend, for the benefit of the estate of Mrs. Eddy, any suits at law or in equity, whether now pend ing or that may afterwards be brought with reference to any matter in which she may personally be interested. With the exception of MT. Mcclellan, the trustees are not believers in the Chris tian Science doctrine. MT. Baker is a former congressman, while MT. Fernald is president of one of the banks in this city, and has for several years acted as Mrs. Eddy's financial agent.
 The next step in the litigation will come when counsel for both parties to the suit will agree upon a date for a hearing on the motion that was filed to-day

 New England.
 Hartford, April 2.-At the opening of the hearing before the judiciary com mittee in the matter of the repeal Of the telephone law, the Southern New England Telephone company to-day be- gan It's introduction of evidence to maintain that the present law is jurt one.
 Judge Henry Stoddard speaking for the present company said that before Its representatives of the oompanv cared to speak it was desired that rep- resentatives of the general public be heard. Ralph W. Blakeslee of Water bury, president of the Merchants asso- citation of Waterbury, spoke first and said that one company was enough and it did not make much difference which company it was. MT. Blakeslee confess cd that he knew nothing of a circular which Mir. Freeman of the independents showed and which purposed to be an attack on the present system and sent out by the business men of Waterbury.
 Frank l.. Pickernell, assistant to the president of the American Telephone and Telegraph company, was introduce ed by Judge Stoddard. At the outset MT. Pickernell said that the American Telephone and Telegraph company did not now own or ever did, any stock of the Southern New England Tele- phone company and never made any contest with the local company Much of the copper and brass appliances used by the American Bell company were manufactured in this state The South ern New England company receives from the American Bell company tele- phones and transmitters, and keeps them in repair or replaces them. It also furnishes without any cost coun- sel, advice, etc, running into large sums and 1t also furnishes long distance con- nections. The Bell pays the Southern New England commission for this class of business, and altogether tffs.

New Haven to-day is connected with New York in a long distance cable of the Pupin invention This is not only the longest cable in the world, but there is one in New York which reaches to Philadelphia. To at tempt to enumerate in detail all the ad- vantages accruing to the Southern New England compaiy from the Bell com pany would take a week. Referring to the automatic system which it Is desir- ed to introduce, MT. Pickernell said lie had studied it's workings for ten years and as result of ten years campaign some progress had been made and yet to-day only per cent. of all the tel ephones in the United States used the automatic system. To-day in the Unit ed States there were perhaps a dozen automatic switch boards and the Bell company has itself several patents on the automatic switch board. He said that the manual system, as used by the Bell company was in his opinion far

FALL FISHING VERY GOOD.

Indianapolis, Sept 9.-The anglers
and hunters over the state have been
more than busy during the past week,
and reports from every section go to
verify the prediction of several weeks

duck, brant and other wild bird game
which have been nesting in the marsh

Both the fishermen and hunters have
been well rewarded. and the enthusiast
tic welcome of September has proven
well founded, the anglers having a
good taste of fall fishing with ideal
conditions prevailing. and the marks
men a splendid inning at the feathered
game. Although the game law allow

FAIL TO SEEK FARLEY.
Armistice is FrutIess and Genera
Drude Plans Campaign.

Casabianca, Sept. 9.-The armistice
sanctioned by Gen. Drude has been
fruitless thus far, as the delegates of
Caid Mazi, chief of the Chamula tribe,
have not put in an appearance. Gen.
Drude has planned q vigorous cam
paign against the natives, in case the
Moors remain obdurate.
Natives declare that numerous
members of the tribes are encamped
at Taddert awaiting the arrival of
Mulai Hafig or his representative be-
fore making another attack
Many peaceful Arabs, who desire to
return to Casablanca, are hindered by
the warning tribesmen, who nave
strong cordons of sentinels posted,
with instructions to kill all persons at
tempting to pass them
An example of the wild anarchy pre-
vailing in the country is found in the
seizure of Caid Zulgreither, one of the
formenters of the Casablanca revolt,
by tribesmen, who appropriated his
fortune and grossly maltreated his
family.
Gen. Drude says he has profited by
the suspension of fighting by deter
mining the exact positions of the enc
my. Admiral Philibert cables that all
the ports are orderly.
