BRANOEIS GOOD AND BRANDEIS BAD
Witnesses His Behalf Declared He Incurred Eny of Fin ancial Interests by His Public Servces-Te of His High Character and Fitness to Sit Supreme Court Bench Opposition Claim He is Untrustworthy and is Sailing Under False Colors.

Washington, March 2-Louis D. Brandeis was described today by wit nesses in his behalf, in the senate in- vestigation of his fitness to be a su- preme court justice as a public spirit ed man of high character who had in cured the enn1ity of powerful financial interests by advocating movements to which those interests were opposed.
 Three of those who appeared for MT. Brandeis testified that he had been assafled only by men whose interests he had attacked. Others, without re- ferrins to MT. Brandeis' opponents, said his reputation was high, both as to ability and character.
 Francis Peabody of Milton, Mass, last of the character witnesses for those opposing confirmation of the nomination, said MT. Brandeis' reputa- tion was that he was not trustworthy and sailed under false colors.
 Senator Walsh of the sub committee conducting the nearing, has received a petition signed by more than one thousand Harvard students, protesting against the action of President Lowell of Harvard, in opposing MT. Brandeis and urging favorable consideration of his nomination.
 MT. Brandeis got in wrong with the financial interests, because of his fight against the gas companies" Jo- seph Walker. former speaker of the Massa chusetts assembly, told the conn lnittee. Then he fought the New Ha- ven, then the insurance companied by advocating savings banks insurance

ADDITIONAL DETAILS OF
 COPPER ZONE SYSTEM
Trolley Official Says Increased ReVe-
 nue is an Absolute Necessity.

There is so much being said about the copper zone system and it's effect upon the riders in the New London division that perhaps a little specific information will be of value and the following has been furnished in re- sponse to a request by an official of the company:
 In the first place, a careful eXami nation of the operating reports of this and other properties in the state of Connecticut as filed with the Public Utilities Commission, will, in his opin- ion, convince any unprejudiced ob server that increased revenue is an absolute necessity, if operations are to be continued
 To retain the zones as they were un der the old nickel zone system and put in six cent fare would result in an increase of 20 per cent. to every rider. It would also compel the payment of 12 cents by patrons riding just beyond the end of the present zone termi- nalS, as for instance, from Franklin square to Gallivan lane. or any point between there and MontVille and would make the rate, from Norwich to New London, 24 cents, just the rate fixed under the copper zone.
 A passenger riding from any point in the city of Norwich, that is, on all of the branch lines. West Side. Laurel Hill. Boswell avenue and on the Yam tic line as far north as Avery's, and the TaftvilIe line as far north as the Catholic cemetery, to GalIivan lane,

for worfzmen. Emnity was engend- cred against him also by his advocacy before the supreme court of the Ore gon law regulating hours of labor for women and his membership in the public franchise league of Boston.
 T think it is MT. BrandeIs' public service which has stirred up the f. nancial interests against him and in proportion as their hatred grew did the respect in which he is held by the people of Massachusetts increase"
 Somewhat similar testimony was given by Asa P. French, former United States attorney at Boston, and Melville O. Adams, a Boston lawyer. MT. French said he had never heard MT. Brandeis assailed by anyone whose opinions or interests he had not at tackled. MT. Addams testified that a, group of men in high standing "who are near the network of State Street. which is our financial street, thought
 MT. Brandeis not altogether straight forward.

Cove to ride only to the bottom Of the hill, few hundred feet, yet was entitled to ride as far south as Hill top, below Montville.
 Coming up from New London the second five cents covered a ride to any point north of Hempsteads and not further north than the Witch Hazel mill. It seems a self evident fact that a rider from Norwich to Gallivan lane or from New London to just above Hempsteads was paying a rate entire ly out of proportion to the rate paid by the rider to the end of these two overlapping zones, the distance from Franklin Square to GalIivan lane for 10 cents being S.s1 miles. and from tranklin Square to Hilltop 7.4S miles for 10 cents. Under the new rate, the fare to these two points Is cents and 14 cents respectively, or as near as may be to Is cents per mile. each passenger paying for the service he what they would have paid under the old nickel system. Under the old sys- tenn Gallivan lane passenger was paying for a part of the service rem dered to the rider through to Hilltop.
 It will then be seen that the in crease in rate applies to long distance riders and eliminates some of the dis examinations that were unavoidable under the old system.
 Under the new system riders from ttilu lO CeTItln points pay more than under the old, others pay less with a six-cent zone all would have paid more.
 The copper zone, then, was first put into effect in order to bring about an increase in gross earnings and to do this in a way that would. as far as possible equalize the rate and not add a burden to the short rider within the populated areas where the volume of business Justified retaining the nickel as the unit of fare.

CATARRH LEADS
 TO CONSUMPTION

Catarrh is as much a blood dis ease as scrofula or rheumatism. It may be relieved, but it cannot be removed by simply local treatment. It breaks down the general health, weakens the lung tissues, and leads to consumption.
 Hoods Sarsaparilla is so sue- eessful in the treatment of eatarrh that 1t Is known as the best remedy for this disease. It purifes the blood. Ask your druggist for it.

Jury Disagrees After
Wrangling For S Hours
On an "Il to /" Basis

After wrangling behind the doors
of jury room for more than five
hours the jury that tried Joseph Alb
nitz for furnishing liquor to crippled
14-year-old Paul Erb late yesterday
afternoon reported to Additional Law
Judge McCarrell that it couldn't
agree on a verdict" The jury was
dismissed. 1t is expected that the case
will be retired at the special term
February I.
OF the twelve jurors eleven insisted
upon a verdict of guilty; one lone
juror stood out for acquittal. y note
from the jury room first appraised
the court that the dozen men were
not of one mind on the question; the
note stated that the jury stood eleven
TO one \ little later the twelve
filed into the courtroom.
Erb's case attracted more than
ordinary attention. The boy had been
seriously burned by an explosion of
some fireworks which had been placed
in his pocket while he was under the
influence of liquor. For several weeks
he lowered between life and death.
He had to be wheeled into court in a
chair. Albnitz was charged with hav-
ing furnished the liquor to the lad.

Judge Scores Youth
Who Urges Sweetheart
to Testify Falsely

The method youthful Chester
Myers, of Steelton, adopted yesterday
afternoon in No. court room to clear
himself of charges preferred by his
one-time 1S-year- affinity, was
roundly scored by Additional Law
Judge McCarrell when the youth ap-
peared for sentence. The court i'm
posed the usual penalty which in
cludes the weekly maintenance of his
year old daughter.
Charged by his discarded little soul
mate with the crime. Myers brought
his equally pretty affinity of to-day
into court to help him prove an alibi.
The small mother had declared that
she had entertained Chester at the
exact hour which the youth swore he
was meeting his lady friend" And
when Chesters new love was called,
she promptly took the witness stand
and corroborated her young sweet
hearts testimony. But the jury was
skeptical.
So. when Judge McCarrell imposed
the usual sentence he reprimanded
Chester severely, not only for ''perjur-
ing himself on the witness stand but
for urging a respectable young girl
to do likewise"
