and this was done as soon as the nee
essary information and data could be
secured by the law Officers in the
territory. The contention on the part
of the territory is that Schomberg and
Graden deceived the officials of the
territory charged with the duty of the
disposition OF these lands and through
and by fraudulent representations pro-
cured favorable action and the sale
of the land in question. If this cont
tention Is established. criminal pro-
~eeedings might also be instituted
against the defendants in the suit un-
der the territorial statutes"
The New Mexican has discovered
that ii has been ascertained that i'm
this Schomberg deal an understanding
or secret agreement did exist for the
transfer of the lands to a single firm
Or corporation or individual. This is
very interesting. When this transac-
ton was made it was openly charged
that an understanding existed where

Candidate for Deputy Fac
tory Inspector To Be
Chosen by Female
Commission.
MRS. F. C. PORTER
WORKED FOR BILL
Senators Successfully Pro-
test Against Large Ap-
preparation FOR Sou
venir History.

Hartford July 16.-The senate this
afternoon concurred with the house in
all the amendments ii the house on
the woman factory Inspector bill and
as the house had favored an appoint
ment of a commission Of three women
to select a candidate for the Office Of
deputy, 1t will be possible for the gov
ernor to carry out his ideas in this
matter.
Mrs. Porter Of New Haven was one
of the principal promoters of the bill.
The senate disagreed in its action
and refused to pass an amendment in
creasing an appropriation Of $4,000 to
81, 900 as made by the house for a SOU
venir history of the General Assembly,
ana then after Senators Luther. Jud-
son, McGovern and Donovan had pro-
tested against the expenditure of money
in this way, killed the bill When the
matter came up from the calendar,
Senator McGovern said the committee
on appropriations was against in
creased expenditures and he had only
reluctantly given his consent to an APP
propriation Of $4,000. He did not be-
lieve in spending any more money. He
said that the pictures Of the members
| in the last volume looked Like those OF
inmates of a penal institution, and the
press work was poor.
Last session, $4,000 was appropriated
and at this rate. $1,000 would be asked
for next time.
Senator Shepard wanted enough
money to get out a good book Sen
ator Judson said that with the needs
Of hospitals and other institutions
pressing, money ought not to be spent
in this way simply to hand down to
posterity certain facts about the mem
bers and questionable likenesses.
! Senator Luther said the senate had
no right to spend the states money
in this way. Senator Donovan said
that 1t was an unlawful act. The
amendment of Senator Shepard to in.
crease the amount to $4,000 was lost

LOOKING FOR HIS Sister
KoRN MUST BEWARE
Tanning Says Married Man
Took Sister From
New York.

Robert Tanning, hosting engineer
in the employ of the Pennsylvania
Steel company, arrived in New Haven
last evening from Perth Amboy, N. j.,
on a search for his sister, Miss Mary
Tanning.
He says that four weeks ago she left
her home in New York city in COM
pany with man named Korn, who is
a silver platter, employed in a New Ha-
ven factory.
According to Tanning, Korn went to
New York little more than month
ago, becoming straightway a steady
caller at the home of the sister.
Korn, Tanning claims, represented
himself as q single man, and finally
persuaded Miss Tanning to go with
him to New Haven.
When Tanning found that the couple
had left he started an investigation and
finally ascertained that Korn is mar
ried man with two children.
He hunted all over New Haven for
Korn last evening, and says that when
h. finds him he will have him prosecut-
ed to the full extent of the law Fan
ning's residence now is $50 Madison

SENATE REBUKES
Mr.. THOMPSON
Resolution Incorporating the
M, M. & G. Electric
Railroad Company
Passed.
JUDSON ARRAIGNS
WEST HAVEN MAN
Says He Acted in Bad Faith
in Removing Senator
Atwater's Name as
incorporation.

Hartford, July Ex-senator Thomp-
son, chairman of the committee on rail-
roads, was rebuked by the senate to-
day when it passed with scarcely dis
senting voice bill amending the sem
ate joint resolution Incorporating the
Merlden, Middletown and Guilford
Electric Railroad company. This bill
was passed several weeks ago and was
recalled at request of Senator Thomp-
son who stated that it was desired to
make a change in it. To-day the mat
ter was taken up again and Senator
Donovan called for the reading of the
first line only of the bill which prac-
tically was a copy of the new charter.
He stopped the clerk at the first line
and pointed out that the name Of Sena-
tor Atwater of Meriden, had been talk
en- out Of the charter as an incorpora-
tor. He demanded that Senator Thomp-
son explain this action, Senator
Thompson said the change did not ORR
ginate with him but the same was fa-
vored by practically all the committee,
Senator Donovan asked If the senator
whose name had been dropped was an
undesirable citizen. He said it was a
most extraordinary thing to do Sena-
tor Thompson made no reply, Senator
Judson then attacked Senator Thomp-
son sharply asking him to explain this
action, saying that it could not be that
the name was taken off because Mr..
Atwater was member Of the senate,
for the senator from the 93rd district
was also an incorporation as was a
members of the house.
He also accused Senator Thompson
Of bad faith in requesting recall Of
the resolution as the senate granted the
request believing that there were need
ed changes Senator Judson was sew
erely arraigning Mr.. Thompson when
Senator Walsh raised the point that
Mr.. Judson was not talking to the
question. The chair ruled that Mr..
Judson was both batting and dehat
ing" and amid laughter Mr.. Judson
continued.
An amendment offered by Senator
Spellacy inserting the name of Mr.. At
water in the charter as 1t was origi-
nally and, an amendment by Senator
Atwater providing the rs per cent. Of
the capital stock of the company shall
be paid In In cash and also granting
right of eminent DOMAIN to the road
only on the right of way, were both
passed without dissent.

Jumping Of all the measures was
cheap trick. He also said he had been
double crossed" by people wanting
him to vote for their proposition. He
wanted the referendum thrown out aa
did Representative Gardner Of South
ington. Representative Torrey moved
the previous question which practkcaly
ly shut off debate which promised to
be especially vigorous. The referen-
dunn amendment Of the senate was re.
jected. An amendment by Rapresenta-
tive Banks having to do with the Isl
suance of bonds at the discretion OF
the state treasurer was passed This
practically was a substitute for the
senate amendment relating to denorain-
alton Of bonds. Representative Aller-
ton offered an amendment which elirns
mated from the general bin all appro-
priations except that of $4,5OO,0o0 for
good roads.

with varying opinions, and Representa-
tive Gum moved to table, but this was

lthen withdrew his amendment aid
Representative Banks offered one Is
out out the arsenal and armory prop
| ositions, and then another one leaving
