Harry Whitney Writes
 Letter to Mother

Some slight news from the far north was received in New Haven Saturday, when Mrs. Stephen Whitney, mother of Harry Whitney, arrived home from her, summer sss stay in East Harbor, Maine. Mrs. Whitney, shortly before starting for. home, received a letter from her son which contained some facts regarding what he had learned and the experiences through which he had been, some of which are quite in tcresting, although. the references to pr. Cook are very brief.
 The letter says that Harry met Dr. Cook on the latter's way home. The meeting of Dr. Cook and Whitney took place April IS last. The letter gives an interesting account of the meeting of the two friends in the ice fields, but absolutely no mention of the pole is made. The reference to Dr.. Cook is brief. Whitney says that pr, Cook had pretty far north, but does not hint that he had reached his goal. No mention is made of any i'll treat ment on the part of one of Peary' S men in a supply depot@ at Annatok and there was nothing in the letter to show that Whitney had anything but a successful hunting trip. The letter was mailed at Lerwick, Labrador, a month after the meeting of Cook and Whitney.

EFFECT OF NEW AUTOMOBILE LAW OPINION OF ATTORNEY GENERAL M. H. HOL-
 COMB Under 1907 Law, License Expired With Sale of Machine
BUT UNDER THE AOT OF 1909 TT
 CONTINUES

Since the pa ssage of the Ecw law regarding the registration of automo- piles, the fees and length of time in which the license was in force. the question has been very frequent as to whether or not the license on an old machine is continued after it's sale on 8 new machine. To get a definite opinion on the matter State. Secretary Matthew H. Rogers has asked the question of Attorney General Marcus H. Holcolnb. The iatter's reply is as
 Hartford, Sept. IT. 1909. Hon. Matthew H. Rogers. Secretary.
 Sir:-You submit the following Ques- tion:-
 ''Is the owner of motor vehicle who has registered the same previous to September 1. 1909. on transfer of said vehicle. and the filing of a new application, and the payment of the proper fee. entitled to registra ton for the remainder of the calendar year, as provided in section 2, of Chapter 211 of the Public Acts of 1e09?"
 Registrations prior to September l, 1909, were made under Chapter 221. of Public Acts of 1907. section of which provided that ssppon' the transfer of ownership of ahy motor vehicle its certificate of registration. shall expire. !"
 The registrations under. that act ex- tended for one year from the date of issue, and the registration fee was s, 4ASA " power of the vehicle.
 Chapter 211 of the Public Acts of 19O9 which went into effect September 1 1909, superseding the 1907 act. made every registration terminate on De- cember 31. of each year. and the fees for registration under that act. as amended by Chapter 264 of the Public Acts of 1909, are very materially in creased. and the owner of a register ed vehicle selling the same can have ~1-%A ;~, I,f ,a for the balance of the calendar year, and is not thereby required to pay any further registration fee, except to thu extent the substituted machine may exceed in horsepower the one sold.
 ; There are other material differences between the two statutes. and the General Assembly made no provision that registrations under the 1907 act should have the benefit of substitution in case of transfer of ownership of a registered vehicle. and there is noth- ing in the 1909 act to indicate that the General Assembly intended that it should be retroactive.
 In my opinion, given you under date of August 23 1909, said that, in my opinion, registrations issued under the 1907 act were not terminated by the 1909 act and that the provisions re- garding registration in the 1909 act were limited to registrations under that act.
 I am of the opinion that an owner of vehicle which he caused to be registered when the 1907 act was in force, upon sale of same, cannot sub stitute another machine under that registration. He must register the new machine under the 1909 act and pay the registration fee specified in Chapter 264 of the 1909 Public Acts.
 A- Respectfully,
 M. H. 'Ho1comb. Attorney General

a trol of them shall be limited to a law ful path and shall be prevented from returning to those abuses which a re- currence of prosperity is too apt to bring about. !" This is about the usual perfunctory reference to the Roosevelt policies. It makes their carrying-out dependent upon Congressional action which will not it is safe to predict, be forthcoming, and which is quite possibly not expected by the Presi- dent, if indeed desired.
 That the province of the new Tariff commission covers "the operation of foreign tariffs upon American exports and upon the operation of the U. s. tariff upon imports and exports" also "ascertainment of the cost of produc- ton of articles abroad and the cost of production of articles here" This commission, he adds, t'has no brief for either side in respect to what rates shalll be-" It is clearly a much wider field of action than Congress intended. wider in fact than the letter of the clause creating the commission.
 That another tariff revision will probably not be undertaken during the present Administration-that is, not before 1913.
 if this speech was intended to si- lence criticism of the new tariff, and to reconcile the Middle West "insurg- ents' to its many increases and its scant reductions, it will not effect it's purpose. President Taft talked very plainly, but pot convincingly nor all ways consistently. The speech is, in many respects, a disappointment.

ROBBER CAUGHT
 DID TIME HERE

WILLIAM J. ALTY WORKED FOR
 NEW HAVEN ROAD IN THIS CITY
 AND LATER SE1VT~ UP FROM
 DANBUNRY.
 New Haven, Sept. 2o.-A bold att tempt to. pick a pocket on the train platform at Union station last night frustrated by the fact that the victim awoke to the situation in time to see the man getting away with his purse, containing the sum of $54-47. Rudolph Prokupeck, of North Branford. was the intended victim, but he so turned his opponents flank. that he landed him in the police lookup facing a charge of theft fro nthe person in short time.
 Prokupeck was about to board the train when, he felt his purse being drawn from his back hip pocket. and he turned around quickly. As he did so @ man started to run as fast as he could, and Prokupeck started in pur- suit, calling out loudly at the same time.
 The shouting attracted the attention of Patrolman Thomas Doughan and also Special Railroad Officer Petrelli. and the two joined the. chase. The man threw the purse away, but Doughan saw this and recovered it later.
 Officer Petrelu, in pursuing the man, fired his revolver into the air, and just as he did so someone else threw a stone. which struck the thief in the leg. He thought be had been hit by the shot and fell to the. ground, and before he could recover himself the officers had him.
 When arraigned before Sergeant Tighe the young man said he belonged in New York and gave his name as William A. Harvey. Later he told the detectives what is believed to be his correct name. William J. Atty. He said he was born in Montreal and that he came to this state couple of years ago. He worked. according to his story for the railroad in the freight department at Bridgeport and was discharged following a row with th head of the department. He then worked for a time with the Merchants Transportation company in that city and about fair time last year he said he went to Danbury. He admitted be- ing arrested there for an attempt te pick a mans pocket 4 and said. he served three months plus. costs at the Fairfield county jail, being released on January last. Then he went to St Louis and declared he had just come back to Bridgeport last week and to this city Saturday morning.
 He said he had no money, finally telling the po1ice.-- according to their story, that he had taken Prokupeck as an easy mark. In his memOrandum book Atty had list of the various New England fairs.

denying that congress had authority
to direct a head of a department by
resolution OF inquiry, Is characteristic
of the distinguished occupant of the
White House and it Is corollary OF
the main dogma that ne is absolved
from any legal restraint whatever.
Mr.. Culberson cited legal authori-
ties to prove that congress is empow-
cred to place restrictions on heads OF
executive departments and to direct
their acts. He read a statement In
which the attorney general was quoted
after the absorption of the Tennessee
Coal and Iron company by the United
States Steel corporation, as saying
tnat he would proceed in the courts
against the steel corporation II the
steel corporation should violate the
law In respect to restraint of trade,
yet said Mr. Culberson, 'the at
toTney general then had received from
the president letter In which he told
him 1t was contemplated to merge the
Tennessee Coal and Iron company into
the United States Steel corporation.
and that so far as he was concerned
he did not see fit to interfere.
Al the time the president was TAX
Ing his action in respect 10 the steel
corporation, MT Culberson said. the
attorney general was proceeding to dis
solve the tobacco trusts on the ground
that II had absorbed some of It's rivals.
THE response OF the president"
said Mr Culberson, "iS a complete an
swer to the senate resolution. 1t
shows that no action has been taken
by the department of justice. and that
none has been taken because the presi-
dent took the matter in his own hands.
as is not lnfrcquently the case. 1t
SHOWS further that another arbitrary
and lawless act Of an important nature
has been traced TO the chief magis-
trate. who is solemnly obliged by the
constitution not only TO obey the law
himself. but 10 take care that II Is
faithfully executed by others"
