Klett Non cOmmittal.
Senator George w. Klett, a MEM
Der of the committee before which the
bearings on the measures in connec-
ton with the act are being given, was
non-comlnittal. His principal con-
trlbutionS were statement OF his be-
lief that the Legislature Will adjourn
earlier than ever before and a warn
ing that the state will go into bank
ruptcy if money is spent as freely in
the future as in the past.
The hearings on workmen's COM
pensation will he given Friday, March
26 Representative e. w. Schultz
said he believed the compensation act
q step in advance. He said he be-
lieved in square deal for the labor
ing men ase well as for those who have
perhaps greater advantages. "You
have my sympathy" he said in clos
ing.
Representative E. G.. Goodwin told
his hearers how things are done in the
legislature and how difficult the work
is. tie did not express any opinion
on the compensation act
Addresses were also made by Julius
Stremlau, of Meriden, treasurer of the
State Federation Of Labor: by Eugene
Irelber. representative of the New
Haven Trades council; Robert Pine.
editor of the Labor, Standard, of
Hartford, and. by Jasper McLeyy. of

$ee1'ooo Deficiency Approximation.
Senator Klett announced that he
mad just learned that the deficiency
this year amounted to
$o91'VOo. This, he explained was
largely caused by the fact that sew
eral institutions had exceeded their
appropriations on account of their de-
sire to improve their grounds and to
improve the roads surrounding them.
senator Klett said he was firmly
opposed to this lax method of spend.
ing the state money and believed the
roads should be built only from the
money set aside for that purpose and
used by the highway commission
Julius Stremlau, who was the last
speaker of the evening, said that the
deficiency appropriation would not
have been necessary if a different
had been employed. Instead of let
ting the convicts' labor out on con-
tract the labor could have been used
on the grounds of the state institu-
lions and the roads and the deficiency
appropriation would net have been
necessary. ...

It may be necessary to destroy guns
to prevent them falling into the hands
of the enemy, or to make captured
guns useless. If a small amount of
dynamite or other explosive is avail
able, of course this can be done very
effectively. If not, the breech of the
gun is closed and the hinge joints
smashed as much as possible with a
handspike or pick. II there is time a
few rife shots fred at the vital points
of the gun effectively Jam the meehan-
ism so as to make 1t useless, With
rifles, the butts are broken off and the
barrels destroyed as much as possible
To do this the rifles are well heated
over a fire and smashed up with heavy
hammers. Ammunition is destroyed
by placing it in a deep pit and setting
it on fire. Telegraph wires are cut up
into small pieces and the poles cut
down and broken up. - London Elk

SHOWS LOSSES ON FARE
ON MISSOURI PACIFIC

Chicago. July S.--What railways of
the southwest have sustained in dnan-
ciaI losses in passenger traffic, due to
reductions Of fares to two cents a mile
in 1907, was submitted in evidence be-
fore the interstate commerce commits
sion today by H. Fl. Butler, assistant
general passenger agent Of the Mis-
souri, Pacific railway
Mr. Butler testified on behalf Of the
46 western railroads in their petition
for approval of higher passenger
fares. His testimony had particular
reference to conditions in the south
west.
Comparing 1907, the last year
under three cent fares, with 1914, the
last under the two cent fare, he said,
the Missouri Pacific suffered a de
crease in passenger revenue Of % per
cent In the same time the number of
passengers increased 81 per cent.
