ICE INVESTIGATION ON
Committee of New Haven
 Will Go to the Bottom of the Mat

New Haven. June 10.--An alder manic committee today held a hearing with subpoenaed witnesses to try and get at facts relating to the supply of ice available for New Haven and the basis upon which price for that arti- cle is fixed. This city apparently is short of ice, and the outcry has been against the high price. L. H. Kent field, freight agent for the New FIa- ven road, and several assistants had been called, but only Mfr. Kentfeld was retained to testify. He said that rates for hauling ice had not been increased over the 80 cents g. ton rate of last year from Lake Conga- mond and 90 cents from Bantam to Hartford New Haven or Bridgeport. He gave details as to handling ice by rail.
 H.. l.. Harrison of the Hygienic Ice company here, which company is said to control practically all the ice avail able for New Haven, said, among oth- CT things that he had contracted for 900 tons from the Berkshire Ice company and probably would require IA, 900 tons. He could not remember the contract price.

Storm-Then Hot Dinner.
A terrible storm blew down. many
tents the night of January s, this
year, unhousing 1900 men. General
Butler ordered all kitchens fired up
and dinner served. Bonfires were
started and bands played A dis
agreeable incident was thus turned
into a lively midnight picnic while &C.
Communications were being restored.
The spirit displayed In these vari-
Gus situations described is responsible
for the present efficient organization
which led Charles M. Schwab a few
days ago to write a personal note of
commentator on conditions in the
camp. Likewise, it has led dozens of
men to volunteer to remain for per-
manent garrison duty, tho they were
scheduled to sail for home.

Labor League Selects Its School
Board Candidates.
True, Snedicker and AdamSOn
Are the FavOrites.

The political machine which is be-
ing prepared by committee from the
Topeka Industrial council with the
help of delegates from the various To-
cal unions,- developed a tendency to
back fire at the meeting of the dele
gates at the Orpheum theater Sunday
afternoon. The difference in opinion
developed in the plan to select the Ia
Dor candidates for the school board.
The executive committee had selected
list of six persons and declared them
eligible-and they also declared that
no one else should be eligible. But
some of the delegate mechanics had
ideas of their own as to who should
be candidate, and feeling that they
were possessed of an equal amount of
judgment with the executive commit
tee, they made known their ideas.
A number of delegates took the floor
at different times during the meeting
and stated a desire to know something
of the records and qualifications of the
executive committee "appointeeS" for
the three school commissioner jobs.
Members of the executive committee
did not like the implied disreSpect for
their judgment and some of them took
occasion to state that as long as the
executive committee was charged with
the investigation and selection of can
didates. their decision in the matter
should be final.
School Candidates Named.
Finally the delegates obeyed orders
and named three of the executive
committee appointees as candidates
for school commissioners, to-wit and
namely-O. S. True, president of the
carpenters local; j. G.; snedicker. of
the Austin Snedicker Mercantile COM
pany of North Topeka, and George
w. Adamson, proprietor of a shoe
repair shop on East Fourth street.
1t came out at the meeting that
labor is having "a little trouble in
getting itsSwomen vote out, especially
in the east side districts where labor
claims full sway and little competition.
One of the radical members of the
delegate body took occasion to make
speech on this subject and promptly
characterized persons who live on the
west side of Kansas avenue as would
be aristocrats'' The speaker appar-
emily forgot for the moment that a
fair percentage of men. who work
with their hands and are not pencil
pushers or chair warmers, live in,
and pay taxes on property in the
west side districts. The delegates who
represented unions with a big west
side-residing membership, apparently
resented this talk but took it out in
mutterings among themselves.
For a City Physician.
One speaker at the meeting present
ed a new platform to be inserted in
the body of the labor political car
This plank would provide for the
j establishment of a new office and the
hiring Of a physician and surgeon
whose duties would be to give free
| medical advice and care to the sicl
| of the city, rich or poor, in such 6
manner that his ministrations would
be free from the faint Of the. wore
CHARITY
1T the close of the meeting, Sergt
| Robert McGiffert was given a specia
endorsement by the labor machine
| as candidate for office.
