BUSINESS MEN OPPOSED
 TO STOCK WATERING
BY ALMOST UNANIMOUS VOTE THEY CAUSE IN SERTION OF PROVISIONS TO PREVENT
 FRENZIED FINANCE
Appeal Clause of Tentative Bill Is Accepted Redrafted
 By Judge Baldwin State Association Will Now Consider Tentative" Measure

The weakness of the so-called Vim fcent bill, which consisted in part of a failure to include means for the pre- vention of stock watering. has been remedied so far as the latter defect is tions of the New York State law to regulate issuance of stock and bonds by public service corporations.
 The vote in favor of the inclusion of such provisions is said to have been almost unanimous
 The change is one that the Farmer 1 has strongly insisted upon, and was absolutely necessary to give the bill any standing whatever.
 The appeal clause of the bill. the in- herent weakness of which was point ed out by the Farmer. was received, after 1t had been fedrawn by Judge Simeon Baldwin.
 This was done at a largely attended meeting of the directors of the Bridge port Business Mems Association at the Stratfield last evening. it being unanimously decided to present to the directors of the State Business Mems Association, who meet in Hartford, Thursday a public utilities bill with teeth in it. This bill is the Vincent bill. which was actively discussed at a meeting of the local association sev- eral weeks ago. and referred to the board of directors for action.
 The bill as now adopted by the di- Tectors. has vital change, ins that i the committee. of which s. E. Vincent I is chairman. was instructed to add a section providing for the supervision of the issuance of stocks and bonds. Some minor changes and additions made to round out the bill more com p1etely were suggested by the com mittee. and the appeal clause drawn by former Chief Justice Baldwin was substituted for the original appeal sec- ton in the bill.
 The resolution covering the action was unanimously adopted as follows:
 Resolved. That the special utilities committees report. as presented be adopted with minor changes recom- mended by the committee and the ad- dition of a financial section along the fines of the New York law. this to be drawn by the special committee. Fur ther, that our president be instructed to present this bill as embodying the unanimous sentiment of the Bridgeport Business Mems Association at the meeting of the directors of the State EBusfness Mems Association to be held lat Hartford.

 that it's opinion was right and unas- ' sailable. The committee was ready to carry out the wishes of the directors | in all respects
 An informal canvass of the directors 1 was taken and it was seen that there was a pronounced sentiment in favor | of a financial clause being added. The discussion was earnest and the most important points were gone over | carefully. MT. Vincent gave infor- 1 .nation on every phase of the question based on vOluInino1s correspondence 1 with Governors of States and members ! of public service commissions else where.

 Father McElroy spoke in simple -di- rect style of the sudden manner in which the deceased had come to his death. He expressed confidence that in the brief moments following the accident before death had claimed its victim. the dying man had been granted moment of consciousness when the priest who had hurried to his side to administer the last rites of the church.
 "He had a strong faith I am sure the thoughts and teachings that his mother had imparted to him when he was boy were with him when the end came, said Father McElroy Gods ways are not our ways, We cannot fathom the depth of his wis dom. It is the hope and prayer of us all that he was not unprepared to meet his death-that his faith which he always cherished was with him at the end. I learn it was only a short time ago, less than a month, he ap- preached the altar of God to receive the blessed sacrement. I hope and pray the grace which he received then remained with him.
 Father McElroy. dwelling briefly on the lesson to be derived from the trag- edy-that we know not the moment Tor the hour when death will come, and that we should therefore be in readiness at all times-closed the eulogy in expressing the prayer of all that the soul of the deceased should rest in peace.
 The remains were borne from the church while the organ pealed a sol emn dirge. The pail bearers were pr. J. H Callahan, Joseph D. Hartigan, Joseph c. Ivers. City Attorney Thomas M.
