AT LAKE sIoHoNK.
Many Letters Read and Addresses
 Made at To-day's Conference.

Lake Mohonk, \. r., May 21.- That friends of the movement in favor of International peace have found much to encourage them dur ing the last year is the opinion ex- pressed in letters, addresses and re- ports read at to-day's session of the Lake Mohonk conference un interna- tional arbitration. Already more than 200 American colleges and uni- versailles have provided in special ways to present annually to their stu dents the principal facts connected with the arbitration and peace move ment. according to the report of the committee on colleges and universi- ties. James Bryce, the British ann bassador to America. in n letter ex- pressing regret at his inability to att tend the conference. called attention 10 the several arbitration treaties signed by the United States during the past year.

AN ELECTION ECHO
People Recall That Lilley Was
 a Boomer of SeWeIl.

The people of Waterbury were able to get fairly good line on the i strength of Congressman George l.. Lilley in the last city election when his candidate John E. Sewell was simply smothered by Mayor Thoms. Many republicans were utterly dis gusted by that campaign in which the congressman is said to have figured prominently. This together with the expressions heard on the streets to- day show the manner in which he is regarded by the prominent members of the g. 0. D. in this city
 A republican office holder informed a reporter of the Democrat to-day that in his opinion the wings of George l.. would be badly clipped be- fore the nomination is made for the goyernorship. They seem to think, notwithstanding all the nice things that have been said in some of the newspapers, that the congressman has grown decidedly weaker because z Of the investigation just concluded in Washington.
 The investigation at Washington and the last election in Waterbury were in some way similar. Ill the campaign in this city who ever was conducting Mir Sewell's fight said all kinds of things about Mayor Thoms. They did not attempt to give facts. It was "Say what you like and let him prove that it is not true.'
 Previous to the investigation at Washington Mir Lilley also made statements which he later did not prove and as a result he has received an unmerciful flaying from his fel- low representatives, and the only thing that apparently is saving him from being expelled is the fact that number of congressman are of the opinion that he is i'll at his home in this city. What the people thought of the man who managed Sewell in the last campaign was clearly evil dent on election day; what the repre- sentatives think of Congressman Lil- ley was plainly shown by the com ments heard in the house yesterday.
 If the republicans of Waterbury only cared to come out and give their honest opinion of the manner in which they regard him, it is safe to say that he would never receive nomination for anything in the polit- tcal line. He has certainly run against 1t good and hard in the sub marine investigation and it is dol lars to doughnuts that if 1t were to be done over again, Congressman Lil- ley would "let 1t alone" After the bombardment he has received in con- gress wont 1t be awful if he does not receive the nomination for the governorship?

PLATT.wooD CASE.
Son of the Aged Senator Was a
 Witness To-day.

New York, May 21.-Lawrence Hills, a reporter for New York paper, was the first witness called to- day. He testified that he met the plaintiff in the latter part of Octo- Der. 1903, when he went to the Man haitian hotel at 1 o'clock in the morning to interview her regarding the marriage of Senator Platt with Mrs Janeway. What did she say?"
 We asked her if she had state- ment to make. Some one had call ed up my office on the phone and said she was waiting to give out a statement. She said that she had no interview to give out and that she had no interest in Senator Platt's ventures.
 We asked her if she knew Sem ator Platt. She said she did and had the greatest respect for him. "We asked her if she was going ! to sue the senator for breach of promise and she replied that she had no interest in the senator" Frank Platt, son of Senator Platt. Testified to-day that he believed none \ of the letters introduced by Miss Wood as evidence in the suit were |true copies of those written by his 1father. He also testified that none Eof the letters received from Lawyer IAbe Hummell contained any refer aence to a marriage between his Ifather and Miss Wood. He said that l Iafter reading the letters he personal lly destroyed them.
 l Miss Wood, who is a member of
 lthe Nebraskap bar, asked permission
 lto cross-examine witness, but her re-
 lquest was not granted.

WILLING TO SUBMIT RATES,
New York Central omcial Approves
 Commissions Action.

New York. July 2s,-W. C. Brown senior vice-presldont of the New York Central, who has been out to Chicago since last Thursday, returned to this city to-day. When asked for his opinion of tho statement given out by the Interstate commerce commission, touching the proposed increase In freight rates, Mr. Brown said,
 "Of course, l do not know if the statement was suggested or inspired by the president, or whether 1t was issued by the interstate commerce commission upon its own initiative, but l fully agree with It. It Is cer- talny tho business of the commission closely to check all advances in freight rates and to keep in constant touch with every movement that pertains to those rates,
 Immediately following the meeting of the Illinois Manufacturers assocla- ton in Chicago on May 15 l stated clearly that, so far as the railroads were concerned, they would be per- fectly willing to submit the question of the proposed advance in rates to the interstate commerce commission before they should take effect, and have since stated that, so far as the New York Central lines are concern ed, we would be willing to submit the question 10 a commission of business men similar to the commission ap- pointed by President Roosevelt to con- sider the differences between the mine operators and mine workers six years ago. Tho question Is purely busi- ness one, and should be kept out of politics"

 The feature of the morning wac a somewhat lively rise fin Erie shares. ranging from to points for the com mon and preferred issues. Large amounts were traded in. 1'he movement was connected with a report that Mir. Hartman would enter the directories of the Gould roads, and that there would be a deal between Erie and Wa bash, whereby Erie would get the use of the Pittsburgh terminal of the Gould companies, with an exchange of business between the two systems. There is good reason to believe that Mir. Hartman will have something of a hand in the management of some of the Eastern Gould lines Mir. Gould said he would welcome Hartman Into his companies. These stories suited Wall street very well Traders are nev- CT so well satisfied as to have deal stor- les with a little mystery thrown in.
