IN LOVING REMEMBRANCE

She has gone, our dear Ellen;
Yes gone to her heavenly home above
To join the loved ones gone before.
While we know that she is happy.
And from care and troubles free.
'Tis so sad that she must leave us,
While so young and Fair.
But her memory we will cherish,
Till We meet again on high.

EMPLOYMENT BUREAU
vs.. BLACKLISTING
NJ. E. Brewster. Greene Tells Labor Com.
mittee That Former are Open to 10.
spection Of Employee and Employer
Alike.

Hartford. May 6.-various labor inter-
ests were represe nted at the hearing
before the Labor committee yesterday
on a bill which proposes to repeal Sec
ton 1898 of the General Statutes con-
corning the blacklisting of employees.
The bill was drafted for the purpose
of making a law which would be more
effectual by providing that any en-
ployer who shall blacklist by writing,
or publishing any of his employees
shall be fined not more than 5000 or
imprisoned not more than six months.
President Donahue of the State Fed
Grafton of Labor appeared in favor of
the measure and submitted two sub
stitute bills drafted after similar laws
in Ohio and Oregon, which were more
concise. He wanted a law drafted
that would have teeth" as it were,
one that could reach the employer who
blacklists. He believed that the en-
ployer had the right to discharge an
employee with or without reason, but
did not have any right to conspire
against him.
Lawyer c. w. Gross of Hartford
appeared against the present bill, for
he believed the law it now stands
is sufficient. He didn't object to hav-
ing the present law clarified, if in
SO doing the employer would be left
the privilege of making inquiries and
learning the truth about a man whom
he is about to employ. M. E. Brewster
Green of Bridgeport and others teSti-
fled concerning the operation of en-
ployment bureaus which were open to
ployer alike. 1t was brought out that
the state labor bureau was not pat
ronized by several of the Bridgeport
manufacturers because they We're not
able to get the kind of help thew de-
tired.

in which each man should have three
trials. Edward Godfrey held the stop

jections to Petition Of Motormen Of
n Cities.

Hartford. May 6.-The opposition to
a. petition from the motormen of
twenty-five cities in the state, asking
for vestibules on open cars for pro-
lection against storms, was heard yes
terday by the railroad commissioners.
Paul Windsor of the elevated system
of Boston; Henry c. Page, vice-presi-
dent and general manager of the
Springfield street railway system; Ed
ward G. Cornell. vice-president of the
Worcester system; John T. Sloan. Will
bur A. Mainard, George E. Bailey,
Benjamin F. Miner. all of New Ha-
ven, and others testified. The opposf-
ton based it's claim on the belief that
the public preferred cars left open at
both ends in the summer time to allow
the free circulation of air.
Concerning the claim made by the
motormen at the hearing two weeks
ago, that they would be protected
from storms, several testified that as
this seemed to be the chief object of
the petition it was dangerous in it
self, for when rain is beating against
a glass window it prevents an unob-
structed vision The commissioners
have reserved their decision.
