COMMISSION BILL
is CRITICIZE D
Compulsory Feature of Measure
Meets With Objection From
Head Of Conductors.

Washington. u. C.. November G.-Ths
employers liability and worNmcn's
| compensation commission bill was
| sharply criticized by y. Il. Garrctson
president of the Order OF hallway Con.
ductors, at to-day's meeting OF the
commission. Mr.. Garretson took espc.
cial exception to tho compulsory fca.
ture OF the bill. saying that with a
small maximum payment for injury
and comparatively brief time OF pay
ment the empioye would desire the
privilege of n choice.
If" he said. the common law rem
cdy is removed the average man will
invest 1t with value that II never
possessed"
Nj. Garretson contended for an ex-
tension OF the years during which
compensation shall be paid for injury,
saying that if the time were reason
ably extended a smaller pcrcci-eigc
would be acceptable. He advocated I,
liberal policy as II matter Of sentiment
as well as for other reasons.
He did not believe that employees
should be required to contribute to
the disability fund. and he advocated
periodical payment for injuries
rather than payment by means OF lump
sums, thus agreeing with the commits
sion.
W. q. Lee, president OF the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen. indorscd
the commissions plan, but he admit
ted that most OF his associates were
opposed TO the compulsory system.
Like Mr., Garretson, he wanted Il high
compensation, and i'll that event would
have no objection 10 the compulsory
plan. lie would have payments for
damages made on the daily wage basis
rather than on the average earnings
basis.
Speaking for the Edison Electric
Light Company. of New York, Arthur
Williams said that his company fol-
lows plan Of compensation similar
to that recommended by the commits
sion as II national measure. and found
1t to be most satisfactory.
1t insures better conduct and
greater allegiance" he said. The com
pany pays full compensation for loss
of time OH account of Injury.
Timothy Healy. president OF the In
,ernational Brotherhood of Stationary
tiremen. expressed the hope that the
work of the commission would take
in other industries than the railroads.
He said the United States is behind
all other governments In caring for
its injured workers Confidence in the
courts had. he said. been entirely lost.
Edward b. Phelps. who has just con-
cluded an inquiry into accidents among
brewery workmen, said that returns
from 5000 of them showed that per
cent. are injured in the course of
year. The cost of insurance of 90
per cent. would be less than per
cent, and he expressed the opinion
that net cost insuring the working
class OF the United States would be
between l-2 of l per cent. and l per
cent.
The commissions hearings will con-
tinuc tomorrow

LAYS DAMAGE ON
RAILROAD COMPANY
A Closed Culvert Kept Some Water
From Running off.

Thos. Aruge had a delegation of
citizens at his house yesterday morn
ing inspecting the damage that had
been done by the flood the day be-
fore According To Mr.. Argue. much
of this damage resulted from the fact
that the railroad company had the
culvert under its tracks nailed up
which prevented much of the water
from flowing out. As soon as Mr..
Argue discovered this, he opened the
culvert but the damage had already
been done. At that time at least six
inches Of water stood all over the
floor of his home.
II was only by quick work that
damage to furniture and n piano was
aVerted As soon as the water began
rising. Mr. Argue hurried some tim
bers in the house and blocked the
piano and other things up out of the
way.
Some idea of the immense volume
Of water that collected at this point
may be gained when il is said that
the towns drainage pipe. twelve inch
es in diameter ran constantly at its
fullest capacity for nearly eighteen
hours and I'm addition, a good share
of this time, two streams of water
were also going under the railroad
track carrying their share of the
