DAVENPORT STARTLES JUDGE
 PLATT BY HIS STATEMENTS IN THE BOYCOTT CASE

The suit<of D. E. Loewe and Martin Fuchs, who constitute the firm of D. F. Loewe & Co, lat manufacturers of Danbury, against Martin Lawlor and 215 other members of the Hatters' union in Danbury, .Norwalk and Bethel, got under way in the taking of testimony before Judge James P. Platt and jury in the circuit court of the United States, at Hartford, yesterday. During the afternoon sesion warfare between. counsel cver-the Introduction Of evidence caused somewhat of a sensation. Counsel for the plaintiffs claimed that they should have the right to show what has been done since the beginning of the suit by the national organizations in fighting this case; even to the extent of showing who is paying the bills.
 The case will occupy several weeks dealers in hats in different sections of the country will give testimony in per- son or by deposition before the trial closes, and Samuel Gcmpers, presl- dent of the American Federation of Labor, will testify either in person or by disposition. as well as other well known men in the federated trades. The case is one in which the plaintiffs say that the defendants, as memebrs Of the matters union and federated with the American Federation of Labor, boycotted their goods in different sec tions of the United States and they ask for damages of $250, 900. The de- fendants deny what the plaintiffs charge and in a way the plaintiffs are endeavoring to prove their own case by offering in evidence books and other papers of the unions to which the defendants belong, they having them in court under subpoena issued by the court for thir production on the trial.
 When the question of whether evil dence covering events after the date of the starting of the, suit could be ad mitted came to the front the jury was dismissed until today, while the law yers remained to discuss the question

PEOPLES FORUM

Editor of The Farmer, Sir:
 It was with great surprise that I read in last nights Post what had been written by a man ashamed of his name" concealing himself under the title American Man ashamed of his name" who wishes to show that he knows something about His tory made a fool of himself in writ ing a thing that he, himself ought to Know is untrue.
 Columbus, MT American" was borr in Geneva and Geneva always was an Italian Territory.
 Does MT. American" recollect that when Columbus was born in 1436 Gen ova was Republic, 1talian not F'rench), a prosperous one and gov erned by Italians, and that Columbus was an Italian speaking and that the history of the Discovery made was written by him in his Language, the Italian language.
 If MT. "American' knows all what have said above. he knows that what he had published is not true. If he does not know this, then he will do better next time to study before writ ing. . he studied a little Italian history, that the Motherland Italy, up to 1870 was not united as it is to-day, it was di- vided under the Domination of pi- rates and foreign powers, but this does not mean that the people born then were not Italians.
 If what the "American' wrote is right, then we must admit that the Greatest man of this country, her own Father, George Washington was not an American, for the sole reason that when he was born England was the Foreign Power that had the domin- ion in this land
 Regarding the 'Black hand busf- ness, and the 'Mafia' American ought to know that all we good law abiding Italian-Americans detest these crimes and are doing all in our power to prevent them.
 do not want to describe, or cite, the pad side of some Americans be- cause that would not and does not mean that the whole mass of the peo- pIe are bad, and the same thing is about ourselves.
 While there have been and there are some bad men among ourselves, at any rate besides Columbus we had and have some good ones too,f and the list of their names would take quite while, MT. ''American,' to read.

It was agreed by lawyers on both sides that there was no objection to evidence being introduced covering the time preceding August 31, 1902, the date of the filing of the complaint. MT. Davenport claimed that evidence since that date showing conspiracy should be admitted. One of the strongest in dications of conspiracy, he said, is the coming to the relief of those proceeded against. ~.-s s.-
 tThen you intend to show that it is pertinent to show that, the America n Federation of Labor is taking care of the case now?" said Judge Platt.
 "A resolution of a convention of the American Feredation of Labor pledg- ing it's moral andi financial support in the fighting of this. case should be ad- mitted to show complicity,'' said MT. Davenport, and the question of who pays the bills is also pertinent
 The gist of MT. Davenport's argu- ment was that quick flying to the re- lief of the defendants in this action by authorities higher up, providing counts which were attached showed conspiracy of July 25, 1902, was still in existence.
 It was finally agreed by counsel that the trial should proceed in an endeav- or to obtain all the revelant facts ex- isting before August 31, 1902, and that later a day should be set aside for the hearing of the question of law raeed.

Connolly of Dan- bury, requiring him to bring all his books and records, that he had brought all His records from 1894 to date, ex- cept two barra1s of slips which as secretary he had received from shop stewards every week. These two bar rels counsel for the plaintiffs desired and MT. Taylor did not think that they were necessary. Judge Platt said that he would have to hear that question discussed later and the court then ad- journed

OMAHA, March 10.-To the Editor of
The Bee: If the Water board and the
water company would quit playing horse
and stop throwing mud and making faces
at each other and meet on a business
basis. the present muddle would soon be
a thing Of the past. Why doesn't the
Water board make a proposition to the
water ompan something on the same
plan that the city of Chicago has lone
with it's street railway? Give the water
company an extension of its contract for,
say, fifteen or twenty years, allowing it
to earn 6 per cent on their investment,
all earnings above 6 per cent to be
equally divided between the city and the
water company, thus making the city CO.
partner with the water company in the
business. Give the city comptroller full
auth GRITTY to audit and check up all ac-
counts of the water company, either quar-
terly or semi-annually, to show what por-
ton of the earnings belong to the city.
This plan would stimulate both sides to
do their best and work together for the
best interests of all parties. At the same
time this would eliminate the obnoxious
bond proposition entirely. The water
company could then go ahead and make
the much-needed extensions at once, to
the satisfaction of his whole community.

he is not afraid Of the cars. but, neverthe-
less, declines to go on record on the home
rule proposition. Johnson affiliated with
the Jacks, but was elected three years ago
through the fundamentally of Mayor
Dahlman and HIS Jlms. 1t is a well known
fact that tho mayor believes "home rule"
means a fire and police board appointed
by the executive. Those who want his
support must hold the same beliefs.
Johnson's opponent in the ward. Robert

largely-signed petition and resolutions
recently gotten up by citizens and tax
payers of this city demanding the re-

the Douglas county members of the SEN

these petitions to sleep together with
other legislation If our members of the
legislature from Douglas county ignore
our petitions and resolutions, which have
been respectfully presented to them for
consideration, and refuse to give The citi-
