INQUIRE, WANTED FOR MURDER
 IN NEW YORK, FORFEITS BAIL

John McGuire, alias McGee, etc, who was released Monday afternoon from jail on a bond and who the local police learned is wanted for murder, in New York, forfeited his bond by not appearing in the city. court, this morning. He is now a fugitive from justice in this city. The pals of Mo Guire, John H. Hart and Joseph Cart wright were sentenced to pay a fine of $1 and costs and spend months in jail. They appealed to the criminal superior court under bonds of $500. The court reminded Attorney Fred Fallon who appeared for the accused that it was upon his word that Mcclure would be in court this morning that the bond was lowered Monday morn ing. Attorney Fallon replied that he himself had that information and relied upon it. The only evidence offered this morning by the state to show the rec ord of the accused were photographs from Philadelphia, where they were lemon game" This was obtained by Detective Sposa who went to the Quaker City after the pictures.
 The police were very much disap- pointed that McGuire did not appear in court today They have notified the police in Hartford and other cities where Mcclure might go. It is now
 believed he has -beat it'f as far away as he can get Detective Sposa was very much surprised when he heard that Mcclure was wanted in New York. He was at first inclined to dis credit the story, but when told that a picture of McGuire had been sent ito the New York police and been identi-
 fled he seemed to place more conf
 dence in the report. The, police were
 much incensed that the information
 leaked out that McGuire was wanted-j McGuire's pals, Hart and Cartwright were surprised to hear of the report
 They dodbt it saying that it was queer | he had never dropped anything to them about it.'' His attorney seemed
 to hold two opinions about the matter.

MELLEN IS TO
 DIRECT POLICY

New Haven. Nov. 17.-Up to yester- day it had been assumed in railroad circles here that President Mellen of the New@Kork. New Haven and Hart ford Railroad company would succeed President Futile as president of the Boston and Maine and the announce ment of the election of the latter creates some surprise.
 The modification of previous plans is partly accounted for by the fact that President Futile will be able to take considerable number of the functional duties of the office. while President MeIlen will necessarily direct the Bos- ton and Maine policy.
 As reorganized the Boston and Maine board now consists of twelve directors resident in Massachusetts. three resi- dent in Maine. one in New Hampshire. two in Connecticut and one in New York but of the 19 a clear majority are known to be affiliated with the New Haven corporation. as we'll as a majority of the executive committed
 The entrance of J. F. Morgan of New York into the board is connected with future plans of somewhat extensive financing bearing upon the large i'm provements required upon the Boston and Maine system

WEIGHING MAILS UNINTERRUPTED Reported that Order of Sec ond Assistant Postmaster

AS far as the mail handlers at the railroad station know, the railroad may continue to weigh the mails indefinite- LIv .In fact, one of the men employ ed at the station said this noon that A few moments before he was ques- toned an order had come from New Haven from a postal official, instruct iing the postal employees to allow the railroads to weigh the mail This is apparentIy at variance with the order tsezr,ed bv Second Assistant Postmaster General Stewart
 The company has been accustomed to weigh mail for periods varying from a month to three and four months. xvfff a view to making it's contract --ffh the government for the transpor- -arion of mail Two weeks ago the an rS1a1 weighing of mails began Then rar7a an order from Stewart for the YozfaI employes to handle the mails excIusfvely and to keep the railroad men from weighing them
 Yesterday there were rumors or im- r,andfn1 arrests in the cities where ll,-1ss Tas uromised, but so far as can he learned these got no further than fine rumor stage. This morning all .TnafIs were weighed, and shortly before noon came the. statement that repre- isentative of the government in New Haven had sent out an order to allow the railroads to weigh mails

Last night he was certain that Mo Guire would be on hand today Hf was certain the New York police wer< after the wrong man.
 The efforts of the police to keep th( matter quiet were almost amusing They succeeded in keeping it so quiet that three of the four detectives on the staff were not aware that McGuirS was wanted until last evening or late in the afternoon. While patrolmen who were off duty and around thS streets were talking of the matter, th< detectives. three of them, were waIkS ing around in blissful ignorance of anything gone wrong. These three men admitted themselves that they were not ''wise' that McGuire wax wanted by the New York police until last evening. They did not appear to be fooling.
 After the trial the statement was made by a reliable person that Me- Guire would come back to this city if assured that he is not wanted by the New York police. He is represented in New York. but does not want to take any chances on being held in the Tombs for Investigation
 It was also said that Detective Sposa would go to New York and learH whether there had not been a mistake in the Identification of McGuire's pic- ture by the police in New York In case it should be made certain that a mistake has been made and the wrong man selected as the original Of the photograph, Attorney Fallon said ha should make a motion for a reopenfng of McGuire's case.
 The person who made the above statement regarding McGuire's return
 ing to this city if assured he is not the
 man wanted by the New York police, said that Mcclure is not a very great distance away from Bridgeport. When asked his opinion about Mo Guire not being the man wanted by the New York police, Captain Arnold re- piled '1 know nothing about it-o He refused to say whether he had further facts from New York

CONGRESS WILL ACT ON IMPORTANT LEGISLATION
 AFFECTING CORPORATIONS
Attorney General Wickersham Has Prepared Three Bills Amending Inter State Commerce and Sherman Anti Trust Laws One Providing Federal Charters for Corporations.

Railroads doing an interstate bus mess are to be prohibited from hold ing stock in any copeting railroad
 No railroad Is to be permitted to is- sue any additional stock OF bonds ex- cept with the approval of the com mission and then only for a price not less than par for stock and not less than reasonable market value
 The new securities thus approved. are to be sold for actual cash or are to be given in payment for actual party service
 Railroads are to be permitted to make agreements among themselves upon traffic rates. subject to the ap- proval of the commission
 The bill which wickersham has pre- pared amending the Sherman anti trust law would limit it's definition of a crime to a conspiracy, or comoinA- tion or contract. entered into with ac- tual intent" to monopolize or sup press competition in interstate trade
 The remaining measure provides TOT the national Incorporation Of all cor porations doing an interstate business
 whether they are railroads or indus trial companies.
 Tt is claimed. first of these bills, that the interstate commerce court, which it proposes to establish, would greatiy expedite those by enabling speedy adjudication of disputes between snip pers and carriers. The other provi- sions speak for themselves but It IS expected that severe stress will De laio on that which prevents one road from owning stock in another and give the Interstate Commerce Commission su- pervfsion over future issue of securt- | fies These regulations. it is believed | bv the administration, would prevent repetition of Harriman's exploits m lthe railroad world and remove the danger of a "one man controf or the railroads of the country.

Men Who Write the Insur- ance Amazed at Extent of Latest Premium Boost Work of Increase on West Side Said to Be Under Way, But Cards Not
 Out Yet
Revenues of Insurance Com panies Will Be Increased Thousands of Dollars Un- der New Schedules.

The insurance agents have just re- ceived new cards showing the progress of rate revision. and the new rates for the East side.
 A very large number of rates have been changed. The revision is almost entirely upward. Very great addi- tional. revenues. will be furnished to the insurance companies. Bridgeport has seldom received back in payments for fire losses as much as a third of its premiums. 1t Is said. being in this respect somewhat behind the state as a whole. which has had in the past 20 years somewhat less than half of the premiums 1t has paid returned as pay ments for losses
 All the insured property of Bridge port is listed in a simple card index Each card represents certain contigV- ous property Identified by street num- bers. The classification Is further di- vided so that all the property on one side of a street Is assembled in such way that the numbers read in the same order as they exist on the street The numbers on the other side of the street are assembled in the same way.
 Tn rate for buildings is given on the card and the rate for the tenants in the buildings
 The Colonial Hotel. corner of Cres cent and Noble avenues. receives th' | biggest boost.
 The rate on the building has peer lifted from s1-20 per hundred to sS-5 per hundred.
 The rate on the market has been in | creased from $1-75 to $3-50. The rate on the book store has beel increased from S1-70 to $3.5o- These increases in rates were SC lected quite at random. by the proces Il of taking the first new card that cam | to hand and comparing it with the -oF' card for the same street. There are several hundreds oi thes
 cards and by far the larger rumbe show substantial increases | On Stratford avenue the builotng

 The building 1-9 William street
 increased from s1-10 to $2 per hundred

The purpose of tn , insurance companies is. it is under stood, to treat this district substantial ly as a conflagration area It has a least been subjected to drastic raj boosting. The annual report of the fire mai | shal shows that for the fiscal yea ! ending March 31. 1906. the total amour r paid for insurance on the property de r stroyed by fire in that period was s57 ' 25s.
