SEAMEN'S ACT IS LIKE CONSTITUTION
 SAYS SEC. WILSON
Places I.aFollette Measure on Par With Several
 Epochal Measures.

San Francisco. Aug 5.--W. B. Wil- son. secretary of labor. in an address here last night before the convention of the National Seamen's Union. placed the seamen's act on par with the Magma Charta, Declaration of Inde- pendence, Constitution of the Bnited States sand emancipation proclana- ton.
 Tt means the freedom of all sea- men, he said, lon any ship Of every nationality trading with United States ports It is absurd to believe that this act will drive American ships from the sea In effect it will place ship owners of all nationalities9 on an equality, as the foreign seanen will not be long in demanding the same privileges that the bill gives to the seamen of this country.
 "I am not a prophet,i Mr. Wilson continued, "but want to say that the Pacific Mail ships will neither go out of business nor from under the Amer ican flag. Regarding the Robert Dol lar ships, everybody knows that these vessels were not placed under the American flag {frftia theosRar broke out.

Under his, efficient direction, the~de- partment has grown to it's present proportions, and it's members feel they owe much. of the success of the instt- tuition to Chief Keppy's leadership for the past score of years.
 The retiring chief is one of the most popular men in the employ o4 Warner Bros Co. and his fellow WorkmenA regret losing his daily com panionship. He wore his uniform for the last time on Saturday night when he led the Warner Bros. hremen at the Hook and Ladder carnival in Fair field.

No More Ten Cent
 Growlers Will Be, Sold After Sept. 1

After November 1 there will be no more 10 cent ttgrowlers, sold in the saloons, whose proprietors are mem bers, of the Wine, Beer and Liquor Dealers association of Bridgeport. The reason for the raise in price is the increase in the cost of license from $500 year as at present to $750 next year. The saloon keepers feel that with increasing rents, and other overhead expenses they must either reduce the quantity or else raise the price to their pail trade. This ques- Ii on will be discussed atthe state con- vention of the liquor dealers associa- Ttion which is to be held here in Sep .tember.
 Another and far more important question which is to come up will be the sounding of the sentiment of men in the trade as to the proposed Bar and Bottle BilI'' which is rumored will be presented at the next session of the general assem bly. It has come to the ears of men in the trade that the same organization which succeed<
 ed in raising the price of the liquor n- censes also contemplate regulating the licenses according to the custom in Massachusetts.
 This will forbid the sale Of the so- called 'sgrow1er's or draught beer or ale in pail over the bar, and will
 also prohibit the sale of any sort of liquor by the bottle in saloon. In
 such places only beer or liquor that is to be drunk on the premises can pe sold
 Bottled goods, including beer and ale, can only be sold in packages that are to be carried eff the premises to 1 be consumed. The sale of ale or beer
 or any liquor in a pair or in anything 1 but a sealed package is prohibited. It l is known that a number of members l of the last legislature favored such a lbiu for Connecticut and the men en- 1 gagged in the trade are afraid that if such a bill is introduced it will pass.
