Labor Bulletin No. 3 issued by Com missioner William H. ScoviIle of the Connecticut Bureau of Labor Statis- tics. refers to the recent decision in the ''hatters' case" as follows:
 'gThe important principle was decided that labor organizations have no spe- cial rights under the antitrust law and must suffer legal penalties for practicing intimidation and similar re- etraints on trade and commerce, just as any other corporation or organiza- ton must which undertakes to use an illegal weapon like the blacklist Or secondary boycott. Ana1yzfng the de- cisfon. 1t is plain that under it an em- ploying firm or corporation is entitled to discharge it's employees. if contracts do not prevent. and the employees have right to agree not to use the articles manufactured by the employ CT. The boycotted concern Is not en- titled to conspire with other concerns to deprive the boycotters of employ ment,< or to threaten or annoy other concerns which do employ them. Sim Har1y. the boycotters must not use in 9imidation to discourage outsiders from handling or buying the boycotted @rn's products. Briefly stated the par 9fe@ to the quarrel must deal each with the other and refrain from drawing Innocent third parties into the contro- Yersy."

TESTIFIES FOR
 MUSIC TEACHER
Especial from United Press )

New Haven, March 15.-The exam ination of pr. A. R. Diefendorf, lec- urer at Yale Medical school and one of the alienists in the Thaw trial, was the central feature of the trial of Sophia Kritchman, the Union City music teacher, and Joe Mitchell, for the murder of the girls lover, in su-
 Dr. Diefendorf declared that judg- ing from the severity of the wounds, Kulvinskas, when taken to the Water bury hospital the day following his shooting, was in too serious a condi- ton to declare properly that it was Sophia who covered his face with a handkerchief and shot him and that later Sophia, accompanied by Joe Mitchell, returned and again attacked him.
 With Sophia all during the morning session was her sweetheart, Dr. Ru = kauaskas. of South Chicago, to whom she is engaged to be married: He sat at her side all through the testimony and seemed to be a great comfort to the prisoner.

MOST POTENT OF ALL COMBINES

The coming absorption of the Ma tional Bank of Commerce of New York city by the National City Bank, is the latest development of the Mor- gan plan of securing almost full con- trol of the money market. Thomas F. Ryan who was the principal power in the National Bank of Commerce, is being forced out of his many activities by i'll health: otherwise the Morgan interest might not have captured this large and important bank. the capital Of which is $25.O 900 and the market value of shares of which has been 22o to 230.
 Aside from the obvious purpose of securing practically absolute control of the money market. and thus of speculative values in Wall Street. there may or may not be other purposes in this Morgan game. It is proceeding contemporaneously with the Aldrich scheme of establishing a great cen tral bank holding the exclusive power of note issuance and of increasing or decreasing the volume of currency at pleasure. Senator Aldrich has never yet perfected or assured the passage of any Important financial measure without first consulting the money nagnates of Wall Street. and Presi- dent Taft who has endorsed A1drich as the ablest of legislative dnanciers. is also virtual endorser of the cen- tral bank scheme. It is difficult to avoid the conclusion that there is an intimate connection between the Nor gan plan and the Aldrich scheme, and that it has White House approval.
 If the proposed central bank, holding the power of preventing increase of the volume of currency. is to come under the direct or indirect control of a private banking concern in virtual control of the currency actually in circulation and thus able to not only check or stimulate speculation but also to equally check or stimulate general business. where will the American peo- pie ''be at''? A power greater than the government will direct their des- tinies. Political parties will survive or perish at it's will Trusts and conn pines for the enrichment of the few and the impoverishment of the many will thrive in even greater degree than at present. Even our system of free government would continue to exist only on the sufeerance of Whis superior power.

Stamford has found a striking case of low assessment for purposes of tax ation. A certain lot was considered the most desirable location for a new schoolhouse, and the town a few years ago voted to buy this lot. but at a later meeting reseinded the vote. The price then named was $6.000: now it is $7500. The lot is owned by a land company which lists it at SLIPS for taxation purposes. and the assessors have increased the figures to $1,5O0. The Stamford Advocate comments up on the matter as follows:
 s It should be borne in mind that the assessors chosen next October will do the work for both town and city. Can not the people of Stamford lay aside party prejudices. and for once, take a united stand upon question that is not a party one at all, but affects every taxpayer? Let us have fair, honest, faithful work, and a square deal. If the incident of the woodland avenue valuation should help to bring this about, every one would be will ing to forgive the imposition practiced upon the town. for this piece of fnjus- fice You, MT. Householder whose dwelling is assessed for pretty near all it is worth, are helping to pay taxes justly ehargeable to the Grey rock Land Company and to every other person or corporation whose holdings are underva1ued.

SCARLET FEVER
Something Alb Ut Epidemic From State
 Board of Health.
cstate Board of Hea1th.)

Scarlet fever has been very preva- lent in the state during the past win Haven and some of the towns in Fair field county. 449 cases reported last month as compared with 129 eases in February 1909 and 197 eases in Febru- ary 1908.
 There is no one of the infectious dis eases which differs in the intensity of it's outbreaks as does sacriet fever, the mortality varying widely in differ ent epidemics. The present outbreak, is very mild. which in a measure &C., counts for it's continuance, since there are many mild walking eases whose only symptoms is slight sore throat and these an1bu1atory eases may con- vey the F'sease as well as the more serious ones.
 The specific germ of scarlet fever is not known, but the disease is probably some form of streptococcus infection. We do not know either how the infec- tion is carried from one person to an- other. The desquanation of the epi- derfnis has been looked upon as the danger time for infection and the riers of the poison. but this is by no means proven. It is quite likely in the onset at least that the contagion is contained in the secretions of the nose, throat and respiratory tract, and it has been suggested that the scales of epiderrnis contain the poison only as they become infected by the secre- tions. Experience shows that patients may give the disease to others until the completion of desquamation, which lasts usually until the sixth week of the disease. but no person should be considered well or free from infection who still has a discharge from the ears Or noStrilS.
 For the control of the disease we must prevent the contact of the sick with the well and must insist on a thorough disinfection of the secretions during illness and of the patient and apartments at it's completion. Isola- ton is difficult in most homes and disinfection has often proved illusive, so that better results could be obtain ed by removal of the patient to a well equipped hospital for the care of con- tagious diseases. More attention must be paid to the latent eases. Much is to be expected from a rigid system of school inspection and persistence in disinfection of the secretions of the nose and throat. The school room is usually thought to be the chief factor in the spread of the disease, but in the present outbreak the number of cases in adults and children under school age would indicate that it is quite as readily contracted elsewhere, probably in trolley cars, theatres and other public assemblies Health offic- CTS and physicians can do little in the control without the cooperation of the public and all should obey the Golden Rule by submitting to a proper diag- nosis of even the nildest case and by a strict observance of all sanitary reg u1ations.
