Ehirty Arrests Result from Riots of
 Garment Workers.

New York, Jan. 20.-A few thousand girls went to work in the dress and shirtWaist factories today, but in other branches of the garment makers trades the strike developed more vio- ASence than the police have had to con- tend with on any other day since the trouble began. Rioting started before daylight when members of the United Garment Workers of America learned that strikebreakerS were to be brought into the factories early as o'clock. Last week these employees had slept and eaten at the factories. but Satur- day night they were allowed to go to their homes.
 The strikebreakers were attacked as they came out of the subway stations and the police say that East Side gangsters played an important part in these battles. Men and women were beaten and trampled and policemen engaged in rough and tumble fights all over the street. More than thirty ar rests were made
 The supreme court was asked this Afternoon to grant a sweeping injunc- tion against the employees of manu- facturers belonging to the New York Clothing Trades association. The in Junction, if granted, would restrain She strikers from all manner of inter ference with employees who remained at Werk

New York, Jan 20-Joseph Ettor and Arturo Giovannitti, both of whom recently were acquitted Of charges growing out of the textile strike at Lawrence, Mass last year, were the principal speakers at a mass meeting held tonight in Carnegie hall by the Intercollegiate Socialist society.

To Turn Down
 Dunn's Request
INTENTION OF THE NEW HAVEN
 RAILROAD.
ON MILEAGE QUESTION
Cannot Give Members of General As
 for Sum Provided by Constitution.

New Haven, Conn, Jan. 20.|That the New York, New Haven and Hart ford Railroad company will not accept the suggestion of the state comptroller that transportation of members of the general assembly be given for the ses- sion in return for the mileage fixed by the state constitution. is now prac- tically certain.
 Would Approach Free Transportation.
 The present attitude of the company is known to be quite apart from the constitutional question involved, that there is no reason why the company should be deprived of the receipts from the legislative railroad fares and also that the plan would come so near free transportation that the company would open itself to the charge of improper legislative influence as in the old days when it gave each legislator a free pass.
 No Compelling Statute.
 The situation also disposes, appar- ently, of the idea that the company can be compelled by a new statute, to give cheap or free transportation.
 Amendment of Railroad Charter.
 One of the latest rumors is that an amendment of the railroads char ter so as to give free transportation to the legislators, may be proposed in the general assembly. Such a plan would have to encounter the proviso of the federal constitution against de- privation of property without due pro cess of law

Washington, Jan. 2o.-The govern ment on behalf of the Interstate Com merce Commission today met defeat at the hands of the supreme court of the United States in it's attempt to es- tab1ish in the commission 8 right to make a rate without substantial evil dence being presented at a hearing to show /the unreasonableness of rates about to be replaced.
 At the same tirne railroads of the country won an important point when the court decided that in making rates the commission could not rely upon information gathered on investigation by the commission but must base them upon evidence presented at 8 hearing where the railroads would have an opportunity to presen. t2eir side of the controversy. In thus ifrn- fting the power of the commission the court declared that the question of whether any substantial evidence had been presented in case was one of law for the courts, such as the com merce court to review and was not entrusted exclusively to the commits sion.
