1t is by a large membership that the
association can accomplish thing
such as the bringing of really good pic

are especially anxious to increase our

we hope to raise the money which will

Special from United Press)
 New York, Aug. 24.-The steamship Kaiser Wilhelm IT arrived at Quaran- tine at 2:05 p. m. E. H. Hartman was on board. He declared to the army of newspaper men who boarded the vessel that he was feeling pretty good" but that he would make no statement until he boarded his own private car in Jersey City.
 There was some delay in getting the liner through Quarantine for the phy- eicians there insisted on making a close examination into the circum- stances surrounding the death of two steerage passengers during the voyage When the health officers boarded the ship Hartman was found in his state room, the Imperial Suite 1. on the up per deck forward. on the port side head and shoulders against a pillow as he ate his diet, dressed in a black suit Although he looked sallow and thin, he spoke in a good strong voice.
 In refusing p talk he said: sT prom ised not to talk until meet the news paper men on the train going out to Arden and I think I had better keep my word, don' tyou?"
 When asked about his health MT Hartman merely said: I'm pretty we'll, I'm better"
 He said that he intended remaining on the liner until he made her dock al Hoboken and that he would, therefore not transfer to the Southern Pacific that was awaiting him at Quarantine He asked how the weather was ashore and when told that it was hot he said he had dressed for it.

LONGEST SESSION
 OF ASSEMBLY
Continued from First page.)

Continued from First Ioage)
 The usual horse play marked the closing session of the House today.
 Speaker Banks retired from the chair, shortly before 1 o'clock, the business of the House having practi- cally been completed and on motion of Representative Hayes of Waterbury Representative w. c. Johnson of New town was chosen Speaker pro tem.l MT. Johnson declined at first to take the Speakers place as he looked upon it as doubtful compliment, However he was assisted to the rostrum by the husky members and the House imme- diately became uproarious. Paper confetti, books, waste-baskets and other odds and ends were sent flying broadcast in all directions Johnson however, succeeded in momentarily bringing the House to its senses and after few serious remarks he re- ceived an ovation. Then followed the customary joke" resolutions of a personal nature which mark the clos ing days doings. Representative F. C. Clark of Bridgeport arose to ad- dress the chair but his voice was before he could escape he was bonn barded from all directions. Other members who had the hardihood to arise were treated similarly and this continued for 20 minutes. The House then recessed until o'clock when they will be ready to meet the Senate in joint assembly for final adjournment.
 The House in concurrence With the Senate indefinitely postponed the reso- 1ution allowing $500 extra for each of the House clerks, clerk of the bills and clerk of the engrossed bills.
 The House concurred with the Sen ate in passing the bills incorporating St Jonn's Industrial School of Deep River. This is the institution con cerning which Governor Weeks sent in a. veto last week.
 In concurrence with the Senate the House killed two measures relating to garbage. one concerning the report of foul matters in Long Island Sound and the other referred to the trans portation of garbage. Also in con- currence with the Senate, the House rejected the bill relating to the taxa ton of lands taken by municipalities. |It concurred with the Senate in ap- prcapriating $12,0O0 for auto markers and $2oooo for insurance for state arm orfes. fNs The resignation of Representative Kyle of New Milford, who has re- signed in order to accept the position of deputy sheriff to Sheriff s. D. Haw- ley of Fairfield County was received and accepted by the House.

Bills That Assembly
 Passed or Defeated

The record of the House from the popular standpoint was the best that any House has made in years. The the most part refused to be subject to corporate control. Only once, in the case of the public utilities bill. did the lower branch fail to be responsive to the public will, and then only by three or four votes.
 The Senate, however sang to a song
 of another tune. Not only did the
 Senate defeat the public utilities bill. but it also prevented the repeal of the
 S, 600 limit in actions of tc-rt to recover for death. It prevented the passage of the employers liability act and in
 nearly every instance was found ar rayed in favor of mea sures desired by the great public service corporations
