the costs of court" which amounted to
$5o3

SAFETY APPLIANCE LAW BROKEN
REPEATEDLY IN OPERATING CARS
HERE, GOVERNMENT suit CHARGES

Hartford, Dec. 9-A second suit con-
tanning fourteen counts Of alleged -vio-
lation Of the safety appliance laws has
been brought against the New York,
New Haven & Hartford Railroad Co.
in the federal court by the United
States government. The actions are
brought by District Attorney Thomas
J. Spe11acy on information furnished
by government inspectors. Each
violation calls for a penalty of $100.
The fourteen counts of the latest
action refer to the condition of cars
in the New London yards and at
Bridgeport. The first two counts
charge violations at New London on
Oct. 2 in which two flat cars were run
over the tracks with the uneoupling
lever wired to the end handle; necessf-
tatfng the men getting in between the
cars to uncoup1e.
In the third count it is charged that
a train Of 81 cars was run one and a
half miles over the tracks and that
the airbrakes Of none of the cars was
connected to the locomotive and con-
sequently none of the cars had it's
brakes used and operated by the en-
gineer Of the locomotive. The law
requires that S5 per cent. of the cars
in a train have brakes operated by the
engineer. The fourth count refers to
a train of 10 cars which had the same
