The first move to collect the S24o,
600 damages ard costs, amounting C
nearly another 100000 levied agains:
nearly 200 hatters in Danbury, Bethe
and Norwalk, Conn, by jury in ths
United States Court in October in ia
vor Of D. E. Loewe G. Co.. of Danbury
was taken Saturday by Z. s.
Deputy Marshal Selay G. Blakman
went to the latter city to make formal
demand upon the defendants for pay
ment. Az result Of the large dam
ages, Che hatters are in danger OF lo:-
ing their homes and life savings,
which may have to be sacrificed to
satisfy the judgments. The homes
and other property and bank accounts
of the defendant hatters were "a
tached when the original suit was
brought ten years ago, but these have
since been released under bonds furn-
ished by the national organization Oh
the United Hatters Of North America.
A movement to save the matters
from being compelled to sacrifice their
homes and other belongings in order
to meet the judgments by having an
assessment levied on all haltters con-
nected with the United Hatters u
North America is in preparation.
There Is also talk of asking the Amer
lean Federation of Labor to levy as
sessments on all organizations con-
nea.ed with it in order to satisfy the
judgment against the hatters.

PRoGREssIVES AND DEMOCRATS
CONSIDER INVESTIGATION.
Sensational Case Likely-lf Inquiry
Is Ordered 1t Will Deal With
Use of Money to Influence.

Washington, d. C.-Progressive
Republican and Democratic senators
conferred informally as to the advis-
ability of introducing a resolution in
the senate directing the committee
on privileges and elections to inves-
tigate the title of Senator Boies Pen
rose to his seat.
Such a resolution would recite
charges recently published that SEN
ator Penrose received $25, 900 from
the Standard Oil company, subse-
quent to services on the United States
Industrial commission which investi-
gated the Standard Oil company.
This move would inaugurate the
opening of a vastly more important
and sensational case even than that
Of William Lorimer.
If the inquiry is ordered, it will in
all probability go into many matters
which have not thus far received con-
gressi&nal attention, but to which a
vast deal of publicity has been de-
voted, in connection with the use of
money of great corporations, espe-
cially the Standard Oil company, to
influence legislation.
