NOMINATE GENERAL KING
 AGAIN FOR CONGRESS.
Rumors in Hartford That Windham
 Mans Friends Feel He Would Win.

Another rumor from the Eastern part of the state says the Hartford Times is to the effect that there will be a strong effort made to secure the nomination of Former Attorney-Gen- eral William A. King of Windham, for congress next year. Last year MT King was the candidate of the re- publicans, but he was defeated by MT Mahan, the democratic candidate by a plurality of 515, The friends of MT. King-and they, are quite nu- merouS-say that the election last year should not be taken as an ind1- cation of the political sentiment of the district and ~0int to the fact that the progressives boiled 4,742 votes in the four counties which constitute the district They claim that at least 25 per cent. of the progressive vote would have gone to the republican candidate if the party of the bull moose had not been in existence. The democrats dispute the figures of the percentage and there is no way to settle the dispute by statement that cannot be questioned. The matter must be left to conjecture It is not at all certain that Congressman Ma han will be a candidate for re-elec- tion. It is said that he will be candidate before the democratic state United States senator. If the conven- tion favors his aspirations for senatorial honors another will be nominated for congress at the con gressional convention of the district. There is every reason to think that Mir King will not secure the nomin- ation without a contest that will be quite vigorous. It Is said that Mid dlesex county will have a candidate and that the republicans of the coun- ty will patch up their differences with the view of securing the coverted honor for their county. MT. King lost his best chance for going to con gress when he was defeated for the republican nomination by MT. Hig- gins of Norwich on the retirement of Mr. Brandegee to enter the United States senate. The influence of MT. Brandegee was exercised in behalf of his young friend, MT. Higgins. and MT. King was defeated.

PEACE Celebration
MEETS OPPOSITION
legislators Announce They will Fight
Appropriations to Commemorate
Signing of Client Pact.
CLAIM ENGLAND NOT FRIENDLY

Representative Gallagher Of Illinois,
Hamill of New Jersey and Reilly OF
Connecticut announced yesterday they
would vigorously oppose any attempt
made to secure appropriations of Federal
funds to help celebrate the anniversary
of 100 years Of peace between English
speaking nations. the beginning of which
was signalized by the signing OF the
treaty Of peace at Client, Belgium.
A commission has just arrived from
Great Britain to make plans for an in
ternational celebration. Hibernian socie
ties have already protested to Congress
against any such celebration, claiming
that there has not been 100 years OF
actual peace between this country and
Great Britain. Several measures are now
pending before Congress appropriating
funds for the celebration and directing
the building of monuments on the in
ternational boundary between Canada ana
the United States.
Technically. there may have been 100
wears of peace" said Representative Gal
lagher yesterday. but there has not been
100 years of real friendship or good will
on Englands part. Quite to the con-
trary, England has awaited herself of
every opportunity to injure the interests
of the United States.
Even now she is engaged in trying
to prevent this country from exercising
it's right to control the Panama Canal,
and the right of the United States to
regulate its own shipping. During the
civil war she was unfriendly to the
Union, and tried to bring about a COM
bination with the French Emperor. Napo-

The Pomerene resolution differs from
the Overman measure, in that it calls
upon Cabinet heads for the informa-
ton, directing that these officers re-
quire from their subordinates, over
their signatures, a complete history of
each clerk. whether in the classified
service or not, of his or her connec-
ton with the government. The Over-
man resolution calls upon the Civil
Service Commission for this informa-
ton.
The Cabinet officers are required to
present to the Senate the names of all
appointees in each branch or bureau
of his department; their addresses at
the time of the appointment: the date
thereof: the length Of residence in the
State, Territory, or district to which

ment; their politics at the time Of said
appointment and now: whether in the
classified or unclassified service, and
when so placed! their promotions, IL
any, and the cause therefor; their de-
motions, If any, and the cause there
for; also give copies Of any executive
orders which may have been made ex-
tending the classified service. together
with the dates thereof: also a state
ment giving the names and addresses
and politics CT Nthe employees thus in
cluded in said classified service by said
executive orders, and a statement as
to whether they were required TO pass
any examination before being placed
therein; also state what changes. IL

istration of the present laws or in the
enactment of new or additional legis-
lation,"

FEDERAL SUIT DISMISSED.
The criminal suit of the government

The criminal suit of the government
against the Journal Of Atlanta, Ga. for
violation of the Postoff1ce Department
order relating to the mailing of sample
copies was dismissed by the Supreme
Court of the United States yesterday
for want of Jurisdiction.
The government charged the Journal
Company with sending sample copies of
the semi-weekly journal in excess of the
weight allowed by the Postoffice Depart
ment as second-class matter and Sc
cured an indictment, alleging conspiracy
to defraud the government.
A demurrer to the indictment was sus-
tanned on the ground that 1t did not
charge a criminal offense. From the de-
cision of the United States Circuit Court
of Georgia an appeal was taken by the
government to the Supreme Court, which
refused to take jurisdiction.
