AN ATHLETES DEATH

The career of Garland (Jake) Stahl, professional baseball player for over ten years, who died Tuesday of heart disease, is notable in that 1t Is one of the few cases where man who makes athletics his profession for a considerable period achieves noteworthy success in other fields later in life. Mir Stahl was only forty one years old when he died and at that time had become the president of a bank in Chicago. He was one of the first of the college players to enter professional ranks and one of the first, therefore, to bring into the profess sional branch of baseball an atmos- phere somewhat different from that which he had formerly obtained.
 At the time Mathewson and Stahl came from college to enter the big league-and they were practically contem mporaries-there were few men with college education in the ranks of professional players. Men played as long as they retained their skill and speed and then disappeared, usually taking positions of obscurity. Disspa- ton was common among them, and their former popularity carried them along for time Eventually. however, they were lost sight of.
 Today there are many we'll educat- ed men among the players. They give the appearance, off the field, of group of young men accustomed to the good things of life and knowing how to appreciate them. Many of them pursue studies during their fitted to take up some line of business or profession after their skill departs. aided somewhat by circumstances. But there was that ability in him which brought success in the eight years of banking which followed his retire ment from the game, as it had brought success on the diamond when he had led his Boston team to Worlds Championship in 1912. The great na- tional game is all the better for hav- ing in it men of the type of Garland Stahl, up to now, represents the ex- ception rather than the rule.

sion should be experts in their line
 and should be above being influenced ! by popular demand to the prejudice
 of the rights of the Connecticut Com | pany, for instance, Membership or
 such commission should be one of | the matters to be kept as much out of politics as possible, But it is also true that transportation matters in this state should be regulated by a commission, the members of which are continually in touch with the people throughout the state, The present commission, expert as its
 members may be in knowledge of the miracles of transportation--ha erred in failing to appreciate the changed conditions brought about by the
 changing sentiment of the people,
 The regulation of transportation mat
 ters is not too complex a problem to
 be placed in the hands of an elective commission,
 On the other hand, in national af- fairs, the matter of the tariff is prop erly seen from a different viewpoint, The resolution adopted yesterday fa- vors an expert tariff commission and is commendabe in thus favoring it. To declare that Congress IS composed of men fitted to study and pass upon the propriety of the almost innumer- able items of tariff schedule is to entirely misconceive the character of Congress. The country has tariff commission" so-called. But the country has no body of men such as
 that contemplated by the resolution referred to-men who will make up a true expert commission" and whose dicta would be recognized as the final word, unaffected by politi- cal exigencies, in what would bring the greatest benefit to the whole country.
 Nothing but favorable comment may be made on the resolution con- demnng the granting seat in the Senate to Newberry. Whether he was innocent of wrong intent or not, the opportunity to condemn the expendi- ture of such vast sums of money a1 were spent in that case should not have been lost

straining order made in the attorney generals new draft was paragraph stating there is no restraint on the use of union funds for lawful pur- poses. Other provisions checking the activities of union leaders in pro- noting the strike were made even more drastic in the proposed new or der.
 Mir. Daugherty's closing argument for the injunction repudiated the charge that the restraint interfered with the right of free speech and said that "the freedom of speech was not interfered with unless it was speech that inctes mobs to violence crimes and offenses which the govern ment is bound to prevent"
 This order" he continued, does not question the right of a man or any number of men to strike, but 1t restraints them from striking back unlawfully. On the other hand, it will afford protection to every man and woman equally who come within it's operation, in each and every law full right he said.
 Tt is the duty of the government to compel the railroads to furnish transportation. If the railroads are themselves at any time or for any reason not able to do so because of interferences it is the obligation of the government to step in and pre- vent any and all interferences.
 The Government Choice.
 The government can do four things:
 "First-As in this case it did, call upon all persons responsible for the Interference to desist and to cease to interfere. That failing, the govern ment must decide promptly whether it will resort, as it did in this case,

DECISION SAT. IN
 INJUNCTION SUIT
Judge WlkerSon Will Hand Down
 Judgment Tomorrow

New York, Sept. 22.-After inti- mating earlier in the day that he would uphold the drastic temporary injunction obtained by AttorneyGen- eral Daugherty on the grounds that the striking railroad shopmen were engaged in a gigantic conspiracy to wreck interstate commerce, Judge Wilkerson, in the United States court, late yesterday announced that he would hand down his decision on Sat urday.
 In continuing the hearing the Judge indicated that so far the government had presented the better case. Judge Wilkerson also said that he wished further to examine into the allega- ton of the defense "as to how far they challenged the evidence" and added that the governments appeared to be the "controlling averment.'
 Meantime the judge concluded he would enter an order continuing the restraining feature of the temporary injunction until Saturday. The gov ernment writ in reality expired last night and the effect of continuing the restraining order is regarded the same as making the injunction per- manent.
 New Defendants Named.
 The court made the announcement from the bench after Attorney Gen. eral Daugherty gave the concluding arguments in the governments case. The attorney-gene presented a new draft of the injunction which the government desires the court to is- sue.
 Virtually the only difference be- tween it and the temporary restrain irg order, the government attorney said, is the list of persons named. The only modification of the original re-

Chapin, New Hartford, for Lieutenant Governor; Robert D. Goddard Bridgeport, treasurer, and Fred P.

Naturally Angelo is of inter- est to us being New Britain man selected for a position on the state ponent of Lonergan, brings local pol itics into the situation, irrespective of the qualifications of the individual.
 Augustine Lonergan has many friends in New Britain and, we be- lieve, were 1t not for the workings of the machine, would have received the vote of the local delegation, The fact that he did not receive it indi- cates that there has been some swap ping somewhere and that the real boss of the convention, Thomas Spell lacy, has had his finger in the pie as far as the local delegation is con- cerned. 1t must be that the assur- ances which ex-Mayor Halloran ex- presses in connection with the nomi- nation for Congress have foundation in something more tangible than poll of individual delegates to the first congressional district convention still to be held.
 It is manifest that the eX-mayor controlled the local delegation to the state conventions; it is obvious that he was in position to gain by his au- thority over the delegation from the second largest town in the congress sional district; it is not farfetched to suppose that the voting of the dele gation for Spellacy was by prear- engagement, making Spellacys victory secure and meaning that there would be a similar switching of votes at the congressional convention, where Spell lacy will certainly exercise some pow CT. Of course Joe Dutton, our amiable and likeable friend from Bristol, likewise helped Mir. Spelacy, but the New Britain delegation was the larger ergo it was in position to gain more

Doubtless had there not been satisfaction that Hallorans chances would be unimpaired there would have been remonstrance from some of the Haloran men.
 MT. Halloran expresses confidence in the ultimate result, believes that he will get the nominations; his dele gates did not object to Mir. Paonessa and voted for Spelacy. This, we be- lieve, unless MT. Halloran has been led decidedly astray, answers the question as to whether or not New Britain may have the two posts.
