Nov. s.-Prpponents of con- solidaiion of New England railroads in- to a single system and business men favorinS their union with the great trunk lines presented their arguments today at a public hearing before the Massachusetts branch of the joint New England railroad committee which i1 considering recommendations to the federal government az to the best so- lution Of the railroad problem in the New England area.
 4. A Raphael. asgtstari trafic man sger Of the New ET=ialid Paper and Pulp Traffic association, urged a con- solidaiion of ihe roacs Ind pendent of the trunk lines. d~cisriag that the as- sociation which he represented was strongly opposed 10 any plan which would resdit in the ownership and man. agement of the roads passing cut oi New England.
 Placing us in the hands of any one or all of these trunk systems on whose lines are located strong competitors ot New England industries win uBdoubt- edly result in the loss of our differen- tial rates to the west" he sad. ~These rates have been Of immeasurable bene- l ft to New England industries in meet | ing the competition Of manufacturers ot New York and other adjacent states in the markets west Of Buffalo and Pitts- burEh.-'
 Professor W. j.

RECOUNT OF VOTE FOR
 SENATOR IN MASS. ASSURED

Boston, Nov. 9.-A statewide recount of the vote cast last Tuesday for United States senator was assured today. Col onel William A. Gaston, the democratic candidate who was apparently defeated by 8,425 votes by Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, republican, carried out his inten- tion announced yesterday of directing re- count petitions in every city and town in the hope of upsetting the result. The republican state committee took sim liar action to asure representation in the recount proceedings and tonight had filed petitions in more places than the democrats
 Colonel Gaston's associates said they were satisfied that canvass of the re- turns would reduce considerably the vote reported for the senior senator. RepubIi- can leaders said they felt Senator Lodge would gain more, votes than he would lose in recount.
 As the registrars are required to give notice of the recount of each candidate having an interest therein; 1t will be several days at least before the can vass- begins. --s-y---r-=
 The recount should not be permitted to delay the sending by city and town clerks of their original report of cleo tion returns to the secretary of state. it was said at the later's office today. This report, under the law, must be sent with in ten days after the election.
 The republican state committee in a statement tonight recalled that a state wide recount in 1906 changed the plurali- i ty of Lieutenant Governor by only 200 votes. and added:
 "The committee deplores the unsports- manlike attitude of Senator Lodges op- ponents in making necessary a needless waste of money and work on the port of thousands of men and women through
 out the state by their demand for a re-
 count. Mir. Gaston's supporters, however ] have shown their determination that a
 recount shall be made and therefore the republican state committee will make :. it it's business to see that the recount is an honest and accurate one, and that
 it shall include every vote cast for sen
 ator in the whole state,' not in any se | lected section"
