NAB EIGHT SPEEOERS.
Result of Concerted Efforts of Po-
lice of Two Stations.

Eight arrests for speeding were made
by the police of the West 152d and West
l25th street stations yesterday afternoon
in concerted attempt to put stop to
the reckless driving of automobiles in
in their precincts. One man, Patrolman
Helms, of the former station, brought in
three alleged speeders within an hour.
His first arrest was that of Edward Field,
chauffeur for Frederick Bellamy, law
yer, of No 260 Henry street, Brooklyn.
He declared that the machine was going
twenty-five and a half miles an hour in
Broadway, between 159th and 15sth
streets. Belamy put up real estate for
the release of Field.
William Schneider, builder, of No 7l6
Greene avenue, Brooklyn, and Daniel r.
Smart a broker, of No S27 Riverside
Drive fell into the clutches of Helms
while racing down Broadway at the rate
of twenty miles an hour. The latter left
watch as bail for his appearance, and
Schneider turned over a diamond ring,
valued at 5000. A stop watch registered
twenty-one miles an hour as the rate at
which William II. Croselmire, a gold re-
finer, who lives at No 112 West 10th
street, was driving his machine He
gave pin worth $500 to the lieutenant
of the West 152d street as security for his
appearance. Hugh T, Payton had 500
in cash, which he deposited when he was
brought in on the charge of going twenty
four miles an hour at Broadway and 173d
street.
The police of the West 125th street sta
ton arrested John Randall, plumber, of
No. $50 East l56th street, for going TWEEN
ty miles an hour at Lenox avenue and
l22d street. He offered real estate as
bail Edward Dupree, chauffeur. of
No. 323 Eleventh avenue, put up 500
cash bail when he was arrested for driv-
ing eighteen miles an hour at st. Niholas
avenue and 125th street.
Because he stopped to argue with po-
liceman John Allio, of No 10S West oath
street, got into trouble. He was driving
south in Seventh avenue, ON the wrong
side of the street, when halted at 1O7th
street by Patrolman Genet and advised
to get on the other side of the street. The
policeman asked to see his chauffeur's
badge. The man had none, and was ar
rested. He said the automobile belong
ed to Tony Pamela, of No 4 Carmine
street, produce dealer. The license
number on the car was 81, 1881 New York.
The police looked this up and said that
the machine by that number did not be-
long to Pamela. The man was then
charged with operating a machine with
fictitious license. He was bailed out
later by Pamela, who heard of his arrest.

SPEED REGULATION.
Stanley FarIand of Bartlett, Kan

Suggestions as to Auto
mobile Regulation.

HopttG nC9uiattoU'
Bartlett, Kansas,
May 10, 1909.
Gentlemen of the Middlebury Register =
l am a reader of your valuable and
most square dealing paper and am anx-
ious to see some national legislation put
in force to control automobiles. | have
Just read of the new machine recorder of
speed and have listened to and read
much regarding the control of the dead
ly devil wagon, and have seen some of
my friends and relatives hurt by having
their horses frightened and run into by
theae devil wagon owners.
/ am the owner of high lived but SEN
sible Morgan horses, but am afraid t. let
my wife drive as she formerly did before
the automobile came to this part of Kan
sas. l fear them very much for no horse
has the nerve to hold his part of the road
facing shifting, sneaking automobile
coming toward him at twenty miles an
hour, or even half that speed. These
devil wagons travel across the country
lIOHl lOMll W lOMil OuJ mere Ill NdIlSdS
and write this to say that in my opin-
ion the laws to control automobiles
should be national, for life is Just as
precious out here in Kansas as it is i'm
New York or Vermont and | believe they
should be banished from the public
roads. If this cannot be done then the
proper place to 90 to regulate speed is to
the factories where they are made, and
allow no automobile to be sold to be used
on the public highways that is geared to
90 faster than fifteen miles an hour, and
let those who want higher geared ma
chimes be put under heavy bonds for the
damage done by them and be compelled
to pay a state and county tax in every
state and county through which the cars
travel.
| long to see the time when these devil
wagons will be compelled to make their
own roads. To drive out on the roads
with your horse and buggy, with your
| family in, and not know when you will
pass one is to keep you all the time in
dread.
To let the speed of automobiles be fast
er in the country than on some other part
of the road is not fair. l live in the
on farm and to give these devil
wagons the privilege to com e
whisking over the country roads but to
go slow when nearing a town is not fair
Life is just as precious in one place as in
another, and horse is frightened much
quicker when he meets an auto on quiet
country road than when he meets or passes
one in the broad and busy streets where
there is so much to attract his attention
Hoping you will see the good points in
my argument, | remain, your friend for
the safety of our highways from these
dangerous autos.

driving his auto thirty miles an hour

a car in the opposite direction, that the
police were on the road.
You know, Your Honor" said Curran,
1--WE have code of signals which all auto
drivers are familiar with, and when 1

sents the evidence which you have gath
cred concerning doubtful pedigrees.
Other compilers have presented conclus-

To submit the whole case and allow the
public to judge, whether your conclus-

not, is course which should have been
the rule for others as well as yourself.
The Wallaceian versions of many pedi-

A KILL You-PIease Law.
New York World

To the Editor of The World:
Some gentlemen of means who take
to politics for recreation and amuse.
ment as self nominated and perpetuated
representatives of the people known as
the Legislature of the State of New
York have passed "a bill under which an
automobile may go faster than railroad
train without being guilty of reckless
driving. 1t might MAIN any number of
people and kill score or two of children
without there being any presumption of
recklessness against it, provided it was
going only twenty-nine miles an hour, a
speed faster than many trains
Over % per cent. of the men who
passed this bill are either owners or
users of automobiles, and over 80 per
cent. of the people whom they are sup
posed to represent and who are endan-
gered by this proposed law are neither
owners nor users of automobiles.
Judging from the unprecedented de-
mand for shotguns in the rural districts,
it may prove that if kill-as. you-please
privilege is granted by the Legislature
the ''presumptive evidence" will have to
be extracted.

This Coming Fall the Festival
Will Be in Position to Offer

One of the three days Of this years
Fall Festival will be devoted to labor
demonstration, providing the plans OF
the leading promoters of the affair are
carried out. and the laboring men take
the proper amount OF interest in the
event. The first meeting of the Young

have charge Of the affair, will be held
next Tuesday evening in the office of

ization both without and within the
Y. NJ. B. C. will be selected to have
charge of the management Of the fes-
tival.
There were any number of laboring
men from the factories and stores who
participated in the affair last fall in
some manner. Some did work, others
did any assignment given them, very
willingly. Owing to the fact that last
years undertaking was the first, there
were many features which could not
be included, for various reasons.
Will Take Interest.
It is believed that the laboring men
men will enter into the spirit Of the
affair very earnestly. The nature Of
their celebration will probably be fea-
tured by q mammoth parade. At least
this has been suggested 1t IL also
probable that the labor demonstration
will be held on the same day as the
Industrial celebration. It is no more
than fitting that the two should be
combined. There is no doubt but that
the committee in charge, appointed
on next Tuesday evening, will begin
to make arrangements Immediately.

to change his expressed opinion made
nine months ago when he said that
$1,000 to $500 could be raised for

they will give at least twice as much

Even though the soldiers do parti-

organization will supply some other
form of amusement. A big balloon
race by celebrated aeronauts has been
suggested. The aerial artists such
as Coey of Chicago. and Carl Fisher
