Many Protests From Connecticut.

Many Protests From Connecticut. }
 Members of the Connecticut delega- tion in Congress are receiving many protests from commercial bodies and business and finanoIal institutions of their state against the governments plan for dissolution of the New Haven rail. road system. Some of them are being referred to the department of justice and the interstate commerce commis- sion.' Z! ''.a.s. E
 Senator Mclean Saturday presented 8 protest from the Wholesale Grocers' Association of Southern New England against the governments plan. 'f'ss@"
 Representative Lonergan has received protests from the Waterbury Chamber of Commerce and other soaycss, which he is referring to the attorney general. 2 Representative Donovan has received some protests against the separation of the Sound steamboat lines from the New Haven ownership. These he is referring to the interstate commerce commission because under the preliminary agree ment between the government and the railroad people and under the Panama Canal act the commission has the deci- sion whether the Sound lines shall re- main under railroad control.
 While Senator Brandegee, Governor Baldwin and Representative Kennedy have stated their opposition to the dis solution plans, other members of the Connecticut delegation have not done so publicly, except Mr. Lonergan, who said "I am for any plan that will protect the interests of the public, the shippers, the railroad, it's stockholders. she govern ment and state interests, and travellers over the New Haven system"

 Peter J. Buffers auction of household goods and furniture attracted a good sized crowd yesterday. The articles sold for good prices under M. G. Marcys skillful direction.
 The total of egg masses of the pesti- lential tent caterpillar, collected by children of the state schools, as reported up to March mot including the unsu- pervised schools nor those that have not reached the 5000 mark-was 4,829, ,845. If those not reported had been included the total would doubtless have been well above 5,000,000. AS every egg mass is estimated to contain 250 eggs, it will be seen that the total of eggs destroyed is over 1,250, 100000. This destruction by school children must work wholesome reduction of the possible crop of cater pillars this spring, and has been a most commendable work. Oanaan's record shows up we'll in the contest, though none of the local pupils won prize from the state. - v. s'''-7';

Getting Back at Miss La Toilette. "It might be necessary for the future Miss La Follettes to carry their marriage certificates with them when travelling with their husbands, or does the Fem mist go so far as to denounce our present standards in this matter also?"
 This is one of the shots at Miss Fola La Toilette. who is sutfragist the wife of George Middleton, and the daughter of Senator La Toilette of Wisconsin, contained in a sensational statement here today by Miss Minnie Bronson, Secretary of the National Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage, criticising Miss La Follette's campaign for married women refusing to assume the names of their husbands.
 In the statement, which attacks suf- fragist in general and Miss La Toilette in particular, the famous anti suffragist says:
 Perhaps the most amusing feature of this insane twaddle, if it can be called amusing, is the plea of Miss La Toilette Mrs. George Middleton)--the parenthe- sis is mine-for the right of woman to retain her maiden CD name after marriage and to be called Miss insteado of Mrs. because it was no business of the worlds whether woman is married or not
 "Now Miss La Toilette, although 8 married woman, prefers her fathers name to her husbands i; but what right has she to call La Toilette her maiden name? Is her maiden name her fathers name, or is it Smith. or Jones or Brown, or whatever name her mother bore be- fore she was married; and even then, was that not her mothers fathers name? It would seem therefore that Miss La Toilette instead of retaining her identity as she claims she does, has become Intentionally mixed as to name, and the only solution for such tangle if women generally adopted the plan would be to go back to first principles and call all women Eyes and all men l Adams.
 Present standard of la W and morals, it might be necessary for the future Miss La Follettes to carry their marriage certificates with them.

SUFFRAGE-PR0 AND CON
AComine Suffrage Primer.

AComing Suffrage Primer.
 The appointment of women police officers. and. probation officers is occupy ing the attention of many of the suffrage organizations not only in Connecticut but in all the Eastern States. The New Haven Equal Franchise League a couple of months ago invited Mrs Alice Stebbins Wells of Los Angeles to. give her experiences as police officer to a New Haven audience, and following up Mrs Welles's talk yesterday evening Mrs Edward o. Parker. who served last year as probation officer ln Greenwich. told of the need of women in this State if the interests of girls and women are to be cared for. ....~.-.. s '-.'''
 The Litchf1eld county Association of Suffrage. Leagues is to hold it's adjourn ed winter meeting next week at Lake, vile. The meeting had to be adjourned last February owing to the impossibihty of travelling in the snow. The County Association is under the chairmauship of Mrs A. E. S. Taylor. and includes delegates from sixteen leagues. The Salisbury Equal Franchise League is acting as hostess for the Association, and will enter tain the delegates to luncheon.
 The Connecticut Woman Suffrage Association is about to publish Primer for Voters. The book is being prepared by Miss Springer who has compiled similar volume for the California women. It may seem little premature for the women to take up the study of this subject in Connecticut, but the O. W. s. A. confidently expects that with in very few years the women of Con- necticut will be demanding just the sort of practical information that the book contains in order to enable then to use to advantage the votes of which they will then be in possession.
 Sutfragists in Connecticut are expand. ing their plans for May 3 to include in addition to the great parade in artford, 8 display of suffrage colors and decora- tions in every town and village in the State. May 3 is to be suffrage day aud in many States it is expected that it will be proclaimed public holiday by the governors, in order to give full scope for the suffrage demonstrations.

THE LIMIT OF ASSURANCE"

The Petersburg Inder-Appeaf Of yesterday
made an attack on The Fir0nidn in which the
evident anlmus of the paper was all too thinly
concealed. I ne eagerness with which the editor
ur dertook violent attack on grounds Of slender
est nature does not occasion any surprise to
those who understand. the double purpose Of the
attack. That paper does not like The Vir0tntdn.
The mere fact that the editor of the Inder>Apped1
Is also editorial writer for the Richmond Epcn-
.o Journal is in itself sufficient explanation Of
the incident
Under the title 1.-THE Limit of Indeceney," the
ITnder-Appeat takes especial pride in commencing

which must have nauseated all decent readers
! IT amazed us that a paper devoted to the cause
! of reform and the general uplft should

the matter was paid for by the press agent Of the

/ The Indea-A ppeal fails to take into account
the fact taat The VirotntGn'a story contained
even less description OF specific Objectionable
scenes than it's pet, the Erening Journal, although
presenting the account of the performance in a
manner that would give evidence of the justifica
ton of It's condemnation. The Inder-Appedl pre-
