 ACCUSE WEEKS
Claim He Was Willing to Veto Auto Bill
 Untill He Got into Political Deal. :
HIGHER TAX IS DREADED

At the meeting of the directors of the Automobile Association at the rooms of the Automobile Club of New
 Haven, in New Haven, recently, in- dfgnation was expressed regarding the manner in which the cause of the au- tomobilists was treated by members of the State Legislature this year.
 It was decided that the constitution ality of that part of the new automo- bile law providing for a tax on all automobiles shall be questioned and the legislative committee was author tzed to place the matter in the hands of the best legal talent in the State. If there are good grounds to doubt the constituttonality of the law in all probability a test case will be brought and the matter carried to the courts. That will be decided later by the State Association.
 In the absence of President W. F. Fuller of Hartford, Vice President F. T. Staples of Bridgeport, presided Secretary John N. Brooks of Torring- ton, and Treasurer W. T., Dill of New Haven, were present, with directors from the automobile clubs of Hart ford, Bridgeport, New Haven, Litch- field county, Waterbury, Willimantic etc.
 The early part of the meeting was devoted to a lively discussion of the good roads question and the roads of Connecticut were unscathingly criticis- ed. The practice of the State to leave the roads uncared for was generally criticised.
 MT. Robinson in clear, cut, incisive tones, denounced the manner in which the legislative committee had treated the automobilists and strongly advo- cated the State Association \contesting the bill. Attorney Futile of Hartford, further supplemented the remarks of MT. Robinson by detailing his experi-, ence with the Legislature. Many times engagements were made with Senator Alsop and other members of the com- rnittee, only to have them broken and the question at hand evaded. , The automobflists then showed Gov: Weeks the inconsistencies of the bill and asked him to veto it. This he was disposed to do, they said, until he became involved in a political deal which sought to make George I. Allen of Middletown, Motor Commissioner, taking the Jurisdiction away from the Secretary of State. This plan for tunately failed, but the law was al- lowed to remain.
 In the general discussion that fol- lowed it was brought out that while the automobilists believe taxation was unjust, at the same time they felt will ing to pay a reasonable sum, so long as it was diverted to the maintenance of State roads. They were willing to pay 40 cents per horse power, which was higher than the taxes in other States, but when the legislators made it 50 to 60 cents per horse power the automobilists felt that they were be- ing used as a good thing. It was ar gued, in fact, that the next time the Legislature might make the tax $1 per horse power, and so on.
 That there is a strong feeling of re- sentiment against this high taxation the State was shown by the statements made at this meeting.

PEARY RELIEF
 SHIP ARRIVES Jeanie Puts Into Indian Harbor With Wrecked
 Vessel Survivors
WHITNEY HOLDS THE KEY
Especial from United Press.l z

Special from United Press.l . St. Johns N. F., Sept. 25.-Harry Whitney, the Arctic hunter and the man who holds the key to the North Pole discovery claims of Dr. Fred erick A. Cook, is at Indian Harbor today, aboard the Peary relief ship Jeanie, according to wireless messages from Indian Harbor. The Jeanie put into Indian Harbor. the dispatches say, with O. C. Forsyth Grant, owner of the wrecked Dundee whaling vessel Snowdrop, Captain Brown of the Snowdrop and six of the survivors of the crew..
 are enroute to St. Johns. The sur vivors of the Snowdrop, which was lost in F'robisher Bay, September 20, 1908, reached here after the greatest difficulty and lived with the natives for nearly a year. The party endur- ed untold suffering and hardship in the far north and nearly lost their lives in attempting to cross Hudson Strait for Labrador, being driven back by storms.
 For months the party lived on sea weeds, occasional seals which they shot on the ice and a small stock of biscuits. Game became slightly more plentiful in the spring but other pro- visions were still scarce. Two Of the .crew, Alexander Richie and William Morrison, started for Mica Mines Isl- and in December. Both of Morrison s feet were frozen and Eskimo women amputated one of his feet in a vain attempt to stop the spread of gan, an, grene. Morrison is supposed to be still living with the Eskdmos. Richie cross ed the Hudson Straits and reached one of Dr. GrenfelIs camps.

The income to be derived will be from the rent of the farms, the com missions on supplies furnished, and the
 handling and marketing of the pro basis of fifty families there should be. at least, a gross income of $12,2oO. The running expenses, consisting of the managers salaries. both local ana at the selling end, and incidental costs should not be over $6.750, which would leave net return of $5,500 with which to pay interest on the bonds. These figures are based on fifty families, occupying only about half the land.
 gated a large number of applicants, and out of one hundred and fifty fam flies applying, 1t is believed that more than fifty will be found up to the standard. These families are all Dutch.
 The land it is proposed to settle first is in Fender county, North Car olina, on the Atlantic Coast Line Rail- road, about thirty miles north of Will mington. An option has been obtain about 1,o0O acres will be utilized for the proposed colony. The government and other reports on the soil of this section show it ito be of the finest character. The rainfall is plentiful and evenly distributed through the year.
 Transportation facilities are excel lent, and the farmers being able to market produce from this section much earlier than northern growers, the prices obtained are among the high est. The feature that the company will empha size will be the cooperative marketing and distribution, of the pro- ducts That such a colony should suc-- ceed is to a large extent guaranteed by what already has been done by in- dividua;ls in this same section and on the same types of soil. Within few miles of the proposed Dutch colony of Lioba is the thriving Italian colony of St. Helena.
 The success of the new company de rends on competent farmers, good land and climate, market facilities. able and honest management, and the necessary capital to purchase the land and build houses, stores, an assembly hall, and to carry the enterprise until after the first crop has been marketed. The architectural features of the houses. and the attractiveness of the surround ings will receive careful attention.
 Dr. Van Eeden expects to live in the colony and to utilize the great amount of experience he has had in co-opera- tive work by instructing the colonists in cooperative methods and aiding the management in every way possible to make a success of the movement.

 AMERICAN FLAG
O'Brien to Question Asquith Regarding Incident of Condon Reception in Ire land. /

London. Sept 25.-On Monday next Patrick O'Brien will ask Premier As qutth in the House of Commons if he is aware that on September IS, when the inhabitants of Cast1ereagh were giving public reception to Capt. Ed ward O'Meagher Condon, who is de- scribed as holding a high office in the United States Government, and John McCal1aghan, editor of the Boston Globe. a sergeant of the Royal Irish Constabulary ordered a saloon keeper to haul down an American flag that he had hoisted in honor of the Amerf< can visitors.
 O'Brien will also ask the Premier whether he is aware that the incident is regarded in the United States as an insult to the American flag, and whether in view of the friendly rela- tions which are supposed to exist be- tween the United States and Great Britain, he will cause Ambassador Bryce to explain and apologize for the unauthorized offensive action.

WILL FURNISH
 SHORES POWER
New Haven Capitalists Dam
 ming up Hammonassett River in Huge Enterprise.

New Haven, Sept. 25.-Plans have been perfected by Moses Joy and oth- CT capitalists of this city for the de- velopment of a water power from dam constructed on the Hammonassett river at a place known as Cooper's old dam, north of Madison, which shall not only furnish light to all of the shore towns between Saybrook and New Haven, but which shall furnish power as well.
 The dam is now in the process of construction. It will form an adjunct to the present plans which Mr. Joy has already laid out in this line of work in that section.
 cern is extensive. MT. Joy was not prepared to talk about it last night but the new undertaking is said to. be quite heavily capitalized, possibly to the extent of $20O, 900. A large num- Der of electric lights in addition to stalled in the Shore Line towns, and power to an important extent will be furnished.
 It was pointed out by director of the newly organized Guilford & Ches- ter Co.,, that while this new plan of MT. Joy to tap the Hammonassett river was in itself a consummation that might be wished, the company which he represents would be required by the terms of the Guilford & Chester SIidFl0I to IuTIlISil Lue IdIIeT WItn dIly water supply that it might require.
 MT. Joy would not state what the name of the new electric lighting and power company was.
 In the local financial field it is be- lieved that he has struck very favor able field for money-making in the eastern shore line towns A number of New Ha:veners are interested with him in the undertaking, including w. S. Pardee. The Drapers of Massacl1u- setts, well known capitalists, are also said to be behind the move.

ST. JAMES FAIR WILL
 CONTINUE TILL TUESDAY

Because of the inclemency of the weather of the past few days Rev: Father O'Conner, pastor of St. James R. C. church, Stratford, has decided to continue the parish fair one day long CT than was originally intended. Mon day night was to have been the clos ing night, but the Town hall has been secured for Tuesday evening at which time the fair will come to a close. The Red Men of Stratford who had the use of the hall for that night very courteously yielded their privilege to Father OnConner. The parishioners of St. James have been most loyal in their support of the fair despite the poor weather, but all will now have an opport unity of attending on Mon day and Tuesday evenings. The mon- ey raised through the fair will be the start of fund to be raised for the purpose of building a new church.
