NO JOKER IN ORDER
 ABOUT RUNNING BOARDS.
Trolley Employees Combat Theory That Connecticut Company May Disregard Public utlIties Order.

For the last day or so a story has been current among certain sections Of the trolleymen's union about the state that the recent public utilities order forbidding passengers to ride on the running boards of the trolleys contains & joker in that it simply requires the Connecticut company to publish and notify their men of the same. Some say that since no mention is made of enforcing the law the company need do nothing, and that without this specific section to enforce in the order the pub lie utilities order is emasculated of all it's vital force.
 Trolleymen who have looked into the situation see no joker in the commis- sion's order They hold to the opin- ion that an order of the utilities com mission, when passed and put into eff feet. is to be enforced by implication, and since a $1,000 penalty is attached to any corporation permitting the vio- lation of an order by the commission applicable to said corporation. it ap- pears to these trolleymen that the Connecticut company must assume the burden of enforcing the clear running board commission law. These men re- gard the joker theory is simply a lrst thought which sprang up in the minds of many and was an explanation for the inactivity of the company in some cities in keeping clear the running boards.
 Other than providing number oi
 extra cars, there was no evidence ever
 in the shape of signs in New Haver
 that the running boards had to be kept clear. There was but little running board riding during the day and nc interference was offered to those who rode on the same. The conductors say they have received no official intima- P tion from the company that the ordel exists and that they have no reason
 to expect they would receive any unti the public utilities commission insist! that the road shall enforce the com missions order.
 Trolleymen in New Haven said how ever, that if the company continues tt act as though they regarded the recen running board order as being ineffect | i've, because of the sO-called joker. tn l trolleymen would destroy that impres l sion quickly by an appeal to the publi utilities commission or to the courts

 The headquarters of the convention will be at the Griswold hotel, the large summer hOstelry on the Groton side of the Thames river, and though the regular season of the hotel closes two days prior to the convention, the place will be held open for the enter tainment of the delegates to this con vention While most of the business will be done at the hotel. some of the larger meetings may be held In the opera house or the armory.
