COMMISSIONERS OF NEW HAVEN
 COUNTY IN BAD
Will Not Agree to Probe But Forced to Gall Meeting of Senators and Repre-
 SentativeS

New Haven, May 21.-The New Haven county commissioners have de- cided to meet the popular demand for a meeting of senators and representa- tives of the county to consider fnan- cial and other matters concerning the county. This decision became known last night when the Council of One Hundred of the Civic Federation of New Haven decided to give out its correspondence with the commission CTS.
 If present honest determinations are carried out the people of New Haven county will hear some strange things. The county commissioners will be asked to explain a number of the pleasant transactions for which it is held accountable.
 The county court house contracts. the purchase of the present site of jail labor problem and numerous other matters will be brought up and every effort made not to stifle the honest light of day on the county commissioners doings.
 In the probe which the council of One Hundred is handling, considera- ton of politics does not enter accord irg to emphatic statements.
 From public standpoint, it is claimed, it is regrettable that the commissioners have failed to agree to an investigation, but it is hoped des- bite their decision that the citizens will be able to bring out the facts. A special meeting of the Council of One Hundred will be held next Tuesday night.

COL, ROOSEVELT
 SOCIAL LION AT
 KINGS LUNCHEON
(F'rom a Staff Cores. of the United
 Press.)


 London, May 21.-"A wonderful personal triumph for Roosevelt" This was the characterization today of the social luncheon that King George gave at Windsor Palace yesterday inn mediate1y following the funeral of the late King Edward. Not until to- day was it leaI ned what an import ant part Colonel Roosevelt played at this function, which was attended by 12o Kings, Princes, Dukes and un- titled representatives at the funeral of the late King. Those in attend ance now admit that Roosevelt was the dominating figure. The royalties, who had not yet been presented, crowded about Roosevelt eager for an introduction. The ex-President was literally besieged by royal questloners to learn his views of European pol1- tics but he was on his guard and couIltered. by an avalanche or queS- tions regarding the duties, burdens and compensations of Kingship.
 For more than an hour this cross fire of questions continued ana hnal- ly developed into the distinctive fea- ture of the luncheon. So interested greatest gatheringof royalty ever seen at such a function, become in the Colonel that for time the note of sorrow over the burial of King Ed ward was lost night of
 Roosevelt's personality swept ev- erything else aside. Today Colonel Roosevelt and his family are at seWrest Park the country home of Ambassador Reid. They will remain there until Monday, when they will return to be the guests for fewdays of Colonel Arthur Lee, M. P., who was the British military attache at Washington during the Spanish American war and accompanied Gen. eral Shafter to Cuba.

MASTER BUILDERS GIVE
 ULT|MATUM TO CARPENTERS
Offer Saturday Half Holiday With Reduction of PayMen De-
 mand Holiday Without Wage Decrease

Timothy A. Flanagan.
 An officer of the union was asked, this morning, what he thought of the situation He replied: "Our claim is that we have not treated with the masters, because, as it appears, they have not organized thoroughly. We have been waiting for two years for them to get together, but the pres ent organization does not represent the active contractors to the extent that it might. Three of the men on the masters committee are practically doing no work at present.
 "We do not expect much trouble in getting the half holiday with full pay. Greenwood & Arnold, who are build ing on a large scale, have already granted this demand. All the big en- gineering and contracting concerns, who will have the big jobs here this years. always pay the union scale. The H. Wales Lines Co.,, which will build a big school in Stratford, the TOrring- ton Building Co.,, which has several big jobs here; the Sperry Engineering. which will put up the Peerless Build ing in Fairfield avenue, all pay the union scale. Therefore we feel that our demands are certain of fulfillment, because these concerns will employ most of the union men. The others must come in, or they cannot get skill ed help"
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1910-05-21

A committee representing the Mas ter Builders Association of Bridge port last night gave its ultimatum to a committee representing the Local union of carpenters. The masters granted the Saturday half holiday with increased pay of three-eighths of a cent an hour, which means that the men would get s1SO4 for A hours la bor per week, instead of $19.50 for AS hours.
 The men had asked for the same pay for the short week as for the long week.
 The offer of the masters will be transmitted to the union, Tuesday eV- ening. The offer will probably not be accepted A strike is expected.
 The meeting was held in Carpenters Hall After hearing the ultinatum or the association the committee of the union tried to obtain a better offer, but was informed that the committee had no power other than to deliver the message.
 The masters were represented by John D. Bell, Hans Christiansen, Nal colm McF'ayden, Leon Morehouse and Charles Schwartz. The men were re- presented by Martin l.. Kane, E. El- mendorf, Charles Stout, E. N. Perry,

Entire City Covered By Automobiles In Charge
 of c. B. Maxwell. Special Distribution

The complete story of the dis covery of the bodies of the lost children was detailed in the Extra Farmer that made it's appearance on the streets shortly after o'clock last night and spread throughout the city as fast as a special corps of circulation agents provided with automobiles could carry them to newsdealers. Thou sands of Farmers were scattered throughout the city and its sub- urbs. Newsboys reaped a silver harvest, receiving in many in stances as high as a quarter each while the rapid sale of extras cut so deeply into the supply that the edition was at a premium.
 Learning that many who ordi- narily do not handle newspapers were charging exorbitant prices, the Farmer despatched it's own men throughout the city in auto mobiles, and engaged a dozen ac- tive newsboys who scurried through the various parts of the city to sell the paper at it's regular price, fur nishing the news of the tragedy in details for one cent.
 George B. Maxwell, a prominent circulation promoter of New York city had entire charge of the dis tribution of the special edition He organized the corps of newsboys, selected a staff of assistants, head ed by Walter Schneider and at half an hours notice had the Farmer in all parts of the city, accomplishing record breaking stunt in local newspaper circles.
 Several times automobiles with papers for newsdealers in the out skirts were obliged to turn back to replenish their supplies before their destination had been reach ed. The automobiles were pla- carded with announcements of the extra, anl newsboys and citizens bodeeod the machines wherever

FAMILY ROW
 LAYS BARE
 GAS THEFT David Porter Caused Arrest of His Wife and Star
 Boarder SHE SHOWED LOOP TO METER Spouse Forgives Husband. But Gas Company Re-
 fuses to Do So
SHE SHOWED LOOP TO METER

Through a family row, in which a husband caused his wife and man, who he claimed was a. star boarder, to be arersted last night, there came to light, today, scheme to defraud the Bridgeport Gas Light Co.,, which is claimed to have been used to SUD- ply house with gas at nominal cost for three years.
 David Porter of Bunnell street re- turned to his home, last night, to in- vestigate a story told him by his brother, William, that Mrs. Porter was unduly friendly with Frank Williams. As result of his Investigations he caused the arrest of his wife and Will Hams
 Thereupon Mrs. Porter declared she would tell interesting stories about her husband if he persisted in his prosecution of her. She told the pO- lice to go to their home and search a pantry, where they would find pipe device by which they had for years maintained loop around the gas meter
 The police found the pipe and a couple of pairs of pipe tongs as de- scribed by Mrs. Porter. Today Pros ecutor Redden began an investiga- ton and found that husband and wife had experienced a change of heart over night and wanted to forgive and forget.
 The charge he intended to prefer against his wife was dropped, for he could not be forced to testify against her. She refused to testify against him for tampering with the gas SUD- ply. But the Gas Company's attor- neys insisted that the gas theft be prosecuted and Williams and the two Porters were held for further inves- tigation. A little daughter. who spent the night with her mother in the po- lice matron's room. was allowed to go home with her mother today. Frank Williams is shipping clerk employed by the Springfield Mfg Company. David Porter is a weaver who has been employed in Bayonne N. J., and William Porter is employ ed by the Bridgeport Brass Company Housatonic- avenue branch

WILSON. WANTS MORE
 RIGID LAWS
Scores Lawyers for Crooked Methods in Dealing With
 Evil-Doing Corporations
Special from United Press)


 Newark, N. J., May 21.-Politicians all over the state are discussing the speech made last night at the Law yers' Club of Essex County by Presi- dent Woodruff Wilson in which Will son pleaded for more rigid laws for puniShing evil doing corporations. As president, Wilson is regarded as a probable candidate for Governor of New Jersey and as sNew Jersey is the home of hundreds of the greatest in- dustrial corporations in America, the speech took on added political sig nif1cance.
 Dr. Wilson declared that the pres ent method of dealing with law breaking corporations is entire made Quate. Corporations do not object to a f,a, be saids because the imposition of a fine allows them to keep in their employ experts who within a short time are able to arrange another irregular feature which will net the company far more than the amount of any fine imposed.
 Laws, Dr. Wilson declared, must be revised to fit conditions. American law at the present time is based on precedent rather than on present con ditionS. It seems to make little or no difference to some judges whether of the decisions handed down by the supreme court; they govern them selves by them.
 Years ago." continued Dr. Wilson, ''the lawyers were the rulers of this great country. They were looked up to for a proper interpretation of the laws. Nowadays they peruse the laws carefully and advise the corporations they represent how best to violate them without being caught. When the corporation is caught these law yers tear to pieces the law, which they know was not right when it was enacted, in order to find some loop hole through which their client might crawl to freedom. That is the justice which is being meted out at the pres ent time."

 The Farmer printed and sold upward Of 14,OO0 extras, and when the office was closed at gao last night there were a few short of 200 of the extras left. Crowds on their way to local theatres bought the Extra Farmer and during the first parts of the performance the bill attracted little attention for the audiences were busy scanning the paper, or conversing with their neighbors on the tragic fate of the bows
