REPORT ON THROUGH
BILLS OF LAD|NG
OF THROUGH BILLS
STRONGLY URGED
Charles S. Haight Urges Need Of New
Legislation on Subject-Should be
Binding on Carrier and Guarded
Against Forgery.
Associated Press.

I
Boston, Mass, Sept. 25.-In his
report before the Fifth International
Congress OF CHAMBERS o. Commerce
and of Commercial and Industrial
Association on through bill of lading,
Charles S. Haight declared that the
Importance of such bills of lading
could hardly be over exaggerated,
and gave as an example the import
ance of new legislation the enorm-
Gus amount of expectation now car
ried on between the ghirty-four lead
ing commercial countries of the
world. These countries, Mr.. Haight
estimated as exporting at the rate
Of $2,50O,000 worth of merchandise
per month, or about $4,000 per
minute.
The two essentials Of bill of lad
ing, Mr. Haight declared, were ~
that it must be binding upon the car
rier whose agent has issued it,
whether the goods have been re-
ceived or not, after it has passed in
70 the hands of an innocent pur-
chaser; CD il must be protected
against forgery.
Continuing Mr. Haight said:
Probably every one will agree
that good paper money must fulfill
at least two requirements: it must
be issued by bank or government
and it must be safeguarded in every
possible way against the counterfeit
err If a Bank or England note, or
one of our own gold certificates, were
printed on ordinary paper, without
water-mark, color-tint or other pro-
tective device, so that the merest
bungler could counterfeit it with abb
solute impunity, it would be prac-
tically worthless as money.
"The same things is true of order
notify bills of lading."
Mr. Haight then quoted from the
findings of Prof Samuel Wilson Of
the Harvard law school, who has
made an exhaustive examination Of
the bills of lading laws of foreign
countries. Prof. Willison found,
That the carrier is liable on bill
Of lading where no goods have been
-eceived," and he adds that it may
be safely asserted that this rule Is
the law prevailing outside the Eng
disappearing nations.
'It is, therefore, in Great Britain
and her colonies" Mr.. Haight said.
land the United States alone, that
legislation is necessary to produce
the first requirement of a safe bill
Of lading.
For the protection of our own
people and the preservation of our
credit in foreign trade, | urge upon
congress the immediate enactment Of
law under which one who, in good
faith, advances money or credit upon
bill of lading issued by common
carrier upon an interstate or foreign
shipment for the value of the goods
described in the bill at the valua-
tion specified in the bill, at least to
4 the extent Of the advances made u

He had expected, he said, that the national headquarters in New York would furnish speakers for a rally in this city at any time, but applications had met with reply that they could not supply speakers and that the state headquarters in Hartford must be applied to. President Hall stated that he thoroughly believed in the local republican club that it was. a good thing. whether allied with the national organization or not.

HAND TORN OFF
 IN PICKER MACHINE
EmpIoye at FitehvilIe Mill Was Clean. ing Machine at Palmer Mill.

At the Palmer mill in Fitchville on Monday, a Polish employe lost his left hand by having it caught in picker machine which he was cleaning. He was an unmarried man about forty years old who goes by the name of Joe.
 The accident happened when the machinery started up just after the noon shutdown. The man was an em- ploye of the mill of more than years standing, it was stated, and was well acquainted with the fact that the power would be turned on at that time. but he went in to clean his machine during the noon hour and had his hand in back of the machine when the power started. He apparently lost track of the fact that it was time for the power to go on. His left hand was torn off, Other employees bound up the lacerated arm with rope to stop the flow of blood. and the injured man was taken to the Backus hospital, where his arm was amputated above the elbow.
 Monday evening it was reported from the hospital that he was doing es well as could be expected.

 More than few doses of Croxone are seldom required to relieve even the obstinate long standing cases, while it cures the most severe forms of kidney, bladder trouble, and rheumatism in a surprisingly short time.
 You will find Croxone entirely diff ferent from all other remedies. There is nothing else on earth like it. It is so prepared that it is practically inn possible to take it into the human sys- tenn without results. An original package costs but tride at any first class drug store, such the The Lee & Osgood Co, who will personally return the purchase price if Croxone fails to give the desired results the very first time you use it. r

Bread for All.

Bread! The state of Kansas alone will this year produce enough wheat to feed more than one-sixth of the popu- lation of the United States for one year. The soldiers of our army are allowed one loaf of bread day. and the immense Kansas wheat crop would provide this average ration for 17,5S7,- 900 soldiers for one year. The mag nitude of the crop is illustrated again in the statement that it could be made to girdle the earth at the equator 32 tines with beautiful one-pound loaves. For their bumper crop the farmers of Kansas will receive the handsome to- tai of sS5,000 000, and were the wheat all made into bread and sold at five cents loaf. the bakeshops would get for 1t S32O.0040OO.
