RAIL M[N WAR
ON GOVERNOR HUGHES
Vote Was Passed CenSurinq
Stand.

New York. Fen. pa permanent
organization OF railroad men TO oppose
the candidacy OF Governor Hughes for
the presidency was perfected here. Tho
movement had its origin in the refusal
of Governor Hughes to appoint a can
didatc Of the unions as i member Of
the public utilities commission.
Gov. Hughes explained his refusal at
the time by saying that while the can
didate might be worthy and competent
he wished the commission to be Who'll
~ disinterested.
This explanation, however. was not
satisfactory TO the railroad men. and
they passed = vote Of censure on GOV.
Hughes That the railroad men still

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

John Schlosser has returned from Albany, where he has been working the past few weeks.
 No one. has as yet been appoint ed secretary of the Brooklyn I'm provement society to succeed An drew Frederick, who resigned at the last meeting. "a
 Patrick Clark may leave next week to play polo in the New York state league. A couple of tams are after his services, but there is a hitch on the money question.
 The politicians in this section are not saying a word these days. This is true of the winners and losers. They are presumably taking a rest after the strenuous campaign.
 Miss Nellie Wheeler, formerly of this section, now of Bridgeport, was a visitor in Brooklyn yesterday.
 As was expected, Matthew Dun- phy, manager of the Brooklyn Ath- lectic football team, would not agree last evening to play the All Water bury team next Sunday. The Brook lynites are not playing important games on such short notice and would not consent to contest until week from Sunday at least. They do not care how fast they come after next Sunday. Manager Lawlor of the All Waterbury team would not at first consent to any day but next Sunday, saying their schedule was complete until Thanksgiving. But Manager Dunphy would not agree to a game next Sunday under any conditions, and no one could blame him. The public is eager for a game between Brooklyn and All Waterbury and the latter team would get in very bad repute with the public if they tried to force the Brooklynites into a game on few days notice. The outcome of last evenings conference was that the managers will meet again on Saturday evening.

TOWN SCHOOLS
Outside Districts Wlll Be Obliged
 10 Furnish Cash.

Alderman Larkin's resolution ask ing that an investigation of the A. nancial condition of the town schools be made Is move in the right direc- tion and should have been made long ago. Very few are familiar with this question. but 1t is hoped that after the aldermen passes the resolution and the committee Is appointed and gets down to business 1t will do it's work in a thorough manner. The inside and outside districts are suf- fering on account of the system of taxation and the sooner the public realize this and decides upon a change the better for everybody. The city cannot continue to do bus mess on the present plan any longer
 The outside district will have to pay more or the aldermen will be obliged to shut down altogether on streets new work and water main extensions It is thought that the taxation com mittee now at work on report on that subject to be submitted to the aldermen will think up system of taxation which will be fair to all and will put the city in a position to raise sufficient revenue to keep up with the growth of the town. The city needs more schools and this needs more teachers. The town is not half policed and the fire depart- ment lacks many things that it ought to have. Does anybody suppose these added burdens can be met under our present system of taxation? If so he has not given the matter much consideration or else he Is making fight to get public improvements at special prices. ,->y.

KILLED BY AUTO :
Little Edwin Bsphsm Rsn Dsws
 By C. P. Coss's nachIsa

The big touring car of c. P. Gos6, treasurer and general manager of the Scovill Manufacturing Co. yester- day afternoon about o'clock while coming down orth Willow street. with Norman Taylor driving, struck and fatally Injured Edwin Camp Benham, the only child of MT and Mrs Clarence s. Benham of 25 John son street. The Benham boy, who was only four years of age, was play Ing on Johnson street with Olive Rogers, daughter of Attorney and Mrs T. E, Rogers. The little girl had run across North Willow street and the boy in his eagerness to catch her ran right after, not noticing the ap- preaching machine. Taylor's view was partly obstructed by the wind shield on the machine and before he could turn his machine completely to one side one of the front wheels struck young Benham near the shoul- der, knocking him to the pavement with so much force that the child received injuries from which he died about an hour later. Taylor, who was considered careful chauffeur and expert driver, says he was going less than fifteen miles an hour.
 Shortly after the accident he call- ed at the police station and surren- dered. The bond was immediately placed at $2.500 which was furnish ed by c. P. Goss.
 The little Rogers girl hastened to the office of Dr Bedford nearby when she saw her playmate was injured but the doctor was out. Meanwhile a driver for Tracy Brothers picked the boy up and carried him to his home. Taylor hurried to the office of Dr A. A. Crane in the machine and in a short time he had the physician at the Benham home. The doctor on examining the injured boy found that his neck had been broken by the accident.
 The boys parents were almost heartbroken by the accident as was Taylor himself He stayed at the Benham homestead for some time offering his services for anything that was needed. About 2 o'clock last evening he entered the station and surrendered to Superintendent of Po- lice Beach. The bond was furnished by his employer an hour and one half laer. Deputy Coroner Walter D. Makepeace held an investigation last evening but stated he did not care to handle the case for personal reasons and said he had notified Cor orer Eli Mix to come to town to-day.
 The accident was one of the sad- dest that has occurred in this city in years Little Edwin Benham was the life of his home and the manner in which he lost his life was severe shock to his parents.
 Taylor has an excellent reputation as a chauffeur, and until recently drove car of his own, also having worked for the E. H. Towle Go. He has been with MT Goss only short time. During the summer he went on couple of trips with the city of ficials and the men that rode in his car always commented on his ability to drive a car and the carefulness with which he ran it.
 Last evening one of the callers at the Benham home to sympathize with the grief stricken parents was Mrs c. P. Goss.
