SUES REPRESENTATIVE LILLEY
Correspondent Brings Action for Al
legged SANDER and Libel.

Representative George L. Lilley of Con-
necticut was named defendant today in
a suit for $4,000 damages filed in the
District Supreme Court by Frank B. Lord
a local newspaper correspondent. The
declaration filed by Attorney Charles A.
Keigwin is in two counts. one charging
Islander and the other a written libel
damages to the extent of $4,000 being
claimed on each count
The suit is the outcome of the recent
charges made by Mr.. Liley that certain
members of the press gallery were in the
employ of the Electric Boat Company in
defiance of the rule of the gallery which
prohibits any of it's members engaging in
the employ of any concern having BUSH
ness before the Congress. Mr.. Lord was
one of the correspondents who were no
tilted that they were suspended by the
standing committee while the charge was
under investigation. The committee eX-
onerated the men and reinstated them.
In the SANDER count of the declaration
it is alleged that Mr.. Lnley February -
last accused Mr.. Lord in the presence of
other persons of being employed by the
boat company.
BY reason of this statement. it is de-
clared. the plaintiffs reputation has been
injured and he has lost great gains which
he would have made in his professions AS
a consequence Of the charge. it is averred,
February % last the New York Sun, by
which Mr.. Lord had been employed, dis
pensed with his services and has since re-
fused to employ him.
The libel charge is based on the publica-
ton in the New York Sun and a local
paper of a correction of an alleged inter-
view. The publication, it is claimed. was
procured by Mr.. Lilly and charged Mr.
Lord with misrepresenting the defendant
and made it appear that the interview, as
furnished by the plaintiff, was false, fab
ricated and untrue.
Several days ago Mr.. Lord wrote a let
ter to Speaker Cannon asking for inforna-
ton as to his suspension. The Speakers
secretary replied that the records failed
to show that any complaint had been filed
against Mr. Lord. as required by the, rules
of the House and the rules governing the
press gallery.

other Propositions Submitted.

1IONOS1t1cAS SASAA41SSSN'
There were other propositions submit
ted by the Chamber of Commerce COM
mittee which were considered by the
Board of Trade committee as radical. and
which may also become a block to ne
gotiations.
II is understood that the committee of
the Chamber of Commerce wishes to
modify the bylaws very materially,
especially along the line of the election of
officers, by the full membership, and not
by the board itself, as now done. 1t de-
sires ALSO that regular general meetings
shall be held each month. At present
there is but one general meeting of the
board. the monthly meetings being for
special purposes. 1t is contended that
the members are precluded from original
ing and passing new business at the spe-
cial meetings, unless the matter is first
referred TO the board for preliminary
action.
Mr.. John B. Larner said today that the
report infa morning paper to the effect
that he had informed the committee that
if u merger were effected which would
organization would be Immediately
formed was incorrect. He never made,
he says. any such statement. He will,
however. prepare and submit to the direct
ors of the Board of Trade report giving
his views on the general subject of a
merger
Consideration by Organizations.
1t is probable the resolution will be pre-
sented to the meeting of the board of
directors of the Chamber of Commerce
this afternoon, and by the directors in
turn to the regular monthly meeting of
the organization in the new hall in the
Rrentano building next Tuesday evening.
The March meeting of the Board of Trade
will be held next Friday evening at the
New Willard, and unless special session
of the directors is called to consider the
matter the resolution probably will not
be acted upon until that time.
The committee on municipal legislation
of the Chamber of Commerce met yester-
day and considered several matters Of
Importance. Chaplin Brown. chairman
submitted the draft of bill providing
for the. organization of municipal court,
to take the place of the present justices of
the peace.
The purpose of the bill is to centralize
the work of the justices courts in one
place, in a building near the courthouse !;
equaliZe the work of the Justices and Sc
cure greater dispatch in the business be-
fore these courts.
Simplifying Court Work.
The plan set forth in the bill is simply
to bring the justices together in one
building. give them clerk and an assist
ant clerk. and distribute the business
equally among them. There is to be no
addition to their number, their powers
or compensation. 1t is not thought that
the proposed municipal court would cost
more than the present system, while the
facilities of doing business and the dis
patch o. this class of business would be
greatly increased.
The only radical departure from the
present system contemplated in the bill is
that jurisdiction in justice of the peace
cases shall be changed from $500 to 500.
Another resolution was adopted request
ing the District committee on the revision
of building regulations TO send a copy of

The Joint committees of conference of
the Board of Trade and Chamber of Com
merce at their meeting yesterday after
noon by a majority vote. agreed to the
following resolution:
Resolved, That in the judgment of the
committees appointed by the boards of
directors of the Washington Board of
Trade and the Chamber of Commerce. it
is deemed advisable to merge both organi-
cations, and said committees will recon-
mend to their respective bodies that such
merger be effected under the name of
The Washington Board of Trade
This vote. it is believed, was the result
of compromise and was understood as
not binding the individual members of the
committee in advancing their opinions be-
fore the separate boards when the report
is made. 1t is said that John B. Larner.
who voted against the resolution, did so
purely from the standpoint of advisablllty.
his idea being. in brief. that the two
orga nizations should continue, but that
the Board of Trade should confine It's
work to municipal or civil matters. leaving
the commercial interests entirely In the
control of the Chamber OF Commerce.
An effort was made at this meeting to
have the committee proceed further along
the lines of merger by framing new Dy-
laws for the Board of Trade. if the
merger was consummated. but the Board
of Trade committee was of the opinion
that it was not within the province of
the committee to proceed any further
than to report on the general PROPOSE
ton of a merger. The committee OF the
Board of Trade was unanimous in re-
fusing to consider the question in any
way unless the corporate name of the
Board of Trade was to be retained, and.
while this was conceded by the Chamber
of Commerce committee it is believed that
it will not be favored by the full Cham
Der of Commerce. This may block the
proposed merger. as thereby the name
Chamber of Commerce win pass out of
existence.
