 Will So Decide.

Meriden Attorney C J. D7naher, Of this city, @ho has been called the father of fine workneH's compensation act and who represented the Connec- ticut Federation of Labor while the last general assembly had the matter under consideration, urges all employ CTS of labor to file certificates of sol vency with the commissioner in their district rather than t0 take out in- surance. He also urges that steps be taken to form a state insurance fund. The rates offered by stock con- panies in this state, he says, are 40 per cent in excess Of those in states where a state fund exists, and are much higher than the conditions war rant. Referring to the enactment of the law, he said Representing the Connecticut Federation of Labor in an endeavor to be fair to the manufactur- CTS and other employers of labor in the state, we insisted upon the crea- ton of a state insurance fund, into which premiums might be paid, and employers exempted from further le- gal liability. This proposition was de- feated in the joint committee of the general assembly, F to B. We urged then and insist now that the compen- sation act is brought into disrepute, the reason for 1t being found in the excessive rates charged by the stock companies. We at that time decided that the mutual insurance plan pro- yided in the act was a mere subterfuge hemmed in and hedged about as it were by restrictions and conditions de- signed to prevent the formation of nut tual companies. Present conditions have amply demonstrated the truth of our claims" Continuing he insists that the act does not include employ CTS of less than five persons, and ex- presses the belief that the courts will so decide.

Increase for Taxnayers.

Soutbington Twelve hundred prop erty holders of the town were told of increased assessments upon their property. when that number of noti- fications were issued and mailed by the board of assessors. The increase. in the grand list amounted to about Sl 000 900 and the increased valuation on the several properties varies from a few dollars to the four figures That the assessors have considered the work of adjusting all the property of the town wisely is evident from the large number of notifications and alter ations and while they have been cen sured by few because of the manner in which they proceeded to gather their data t is equally true that vast number who have been paying more on the list than should fall to their lot win now have an opportunity to see others pay in proportion to their yaluation Of special interest is the fact that the larger praperty hold CTS have been listed under the new list in a greater proportion than any time heretofore which can but indi- cate that past assessors have failed to place the correct amount to the prop erty in question.

Cops Make Daring Arrest.

Thompsonville.-C of Police J.. H. Callahan and Patrolman William Fleming and Robert Crombie made a sensational arrest here of Vincenzo Aguzino after he had shot at Giuseppe Leccaro. MT. and Mrs. Aguzino were boarders at Leccaro's home and Agu- zinc appeared and said he wanted to see his wife. She was not home and was so informed by Leccaro. This, Aguzino did not believe and an alter cation took place in which Aguzino drew a revolver and shot at Leccaro. The ball grazed a cheekbone and burned the flesh on the face, but did no further harm. Aguzino ran into a room in the house and barricaded the door. The police were notified and Chief Callahan and Patrolman Elem ing and Crombie arrived and Aguzino, refusing to open the door, the panels were kicked in, and an opening made for the officers to enter. The police covered their man and Aguzino sub mitted to arrest.
