 "one thing which I intend 10 do Is to try 10 increase the attendance at the meetings" MT. Cowles told Herald reporter after the meeting. He said that an organization which contained so members should make better showing than Is or 20 at each meeting. AlthoGh the owners of local stores are members, Mir. Cowles said that they rarely attend, leaving all the business in the hands of the factory representatives. He laid this to the fact that the mer- chants claimed they were not ship pers, but he pointed out that, while hey did not ship products, they re- ceived them and so should be as interested in traffic problems as fac tories.
 MT. Cowles succeeds R. H. Hub bard, who closed his term as chair man by thanking the members for their attendance and suggesting that the meetings in the future last no

later han tt:SO o'clock. A vote of thanks was extended to him for his faithful service,
 The greater part of the meeting was given over to the discussion of oblalnlng railroad station on the main line, The strongest argument in favor of 1t was that 1t would be a big advertisement to New Britain and help it to grow, while 1t would also facilitate express deliveries, as there would be no necessity of trans ferring shipments at Hartford, . Several objections 10 the propo- sition were raised, one being that a station near the Newington town line, would be much less convenient to people from any other section of the city than inc present centrally located one. Such q station would also do away with much of the uSe- fulness of that at Berlin, and 1t was forecast that Berlin and MiddletoNn would put up 6 battle 10 prevent having the plan put through. A station in the east end would also be expensive, it was brought out, as 1t would have 10 be built on marsh land which would require filling in.

SENATOR TAKES
 HIS OWN LIFE
(Fontinued From First Page)

to have been as extensive and as loyal as any man in public in this state ever had. For many years afterwards, as congressman and as senator he was greeted wherever he went as the legislative sessions at political conventions and at gather ings of his party associate with a warmth that could hardly be de- scribed in words. When starting his political career in the state capital which was to lead him to place of high influence in the national capi- tai he inherited from the older men touch of the love and affection they had for his father, Augustus Brande- gee, speaker of the house in 1861. and who for many years was a poli- tical power in eastern Connecticut.
 It is recalled that when Frank Brandegee was elected speaker and had ascended the rostrum to be sworn, his father quietly made his way through the crowd which was extending congratulations to to son and silently extended his hand to Frank and in fatherly way, with tears of joy In his eyes, embraced him. It was said by many who wit messed 1t that the scene was touch ing one and it exemplified to all the bonds of affection between father and son and between the Brande- gees and their mutual friends.
 Not alone among the republicans was Senator Brandegee beloved but his friends of other political faiths, in spite of the heat of political bat tle which often ragged in the days when Brandesee was active in the state always liked to meet and be with him.
 In recent years with his duties at Washington holding him almost constantly there he did not mset his friends very otten. Four years ago when he was candidate for reelection he spoke at many places in the state but since thens had probably not visited about Connecticut to any ex- tent.
 Was We'll Educated
 Senator Brandegee added to his personalcharm by education both from a collegiate course and from his contact with others as he had wide social friendships. He was graduated from Yale and after ad- mission to the state bar in 1888 he was corporation counsel of New London for ten years. He served on the republican state central commit tee, had been delegate to the na- tional conventions which nominated Benjamin Harrison, that renominat- ed President Mckinley and named Theodore Roosevelt. In 1904 he was chairman of the state convention
New Britain herald., 1924-10-14
and chairman of the national dele

and chairman of the national dele- gation,
 He was elected to congress from the old third district as successor to Congressman Russell of Killlngly also greatly beloved In his section. In going to congress he again followed in his fathers footsteps as Augustus Brandegee was in congress from 1863 to 1867 following his speaker ship in the state house of represen- tatives,
 Senator 0. P. Platt always regard cd the younger Brandegee with fatherly affection and 1t was said that Senator Platt always hoped and many times expressed the hope that Brandegee would be his successor
 When Seantor Platt died early In 1905 the general assembly was in session. After the funeral a contest developed which was the aftermath of the famous contest between Nor gan G. Bulkeley and Samuel Fes- senden. The former had been elect cd as a successor to Senator Joseph Hawley shortly before Senator Platt's death in which Mir. Fessen- den had been beaten.
 The republican caucus Of mem- bers of the legislature to nominate a candidate to succeed Senator Platt was held on May 1, 1905. Allen w. n.ixn nF Drid oanart ras candida 9 as was George P. Mclean and Ebenezer J. Hill of Norwalk. Mar GUS H. Holcomb as speaker of the house presided over the caucus. The balloting behind closed doors, with outsiders excluded except newspaper men began about p. m. and con- tinued until well into the next morn- ing when Brandegee was nominated on the thirty-seventh ballot with 127 votes, seven more than neces- sary and Mclean had SS. Paige 10 and Hill IA.
 Senator Lake was the senate member of the tellers, and John O. Tilson was a member. The thirty seventh ballots had not been fully counted when 1'ilson jumped up to make the ballot unanimous for Brandegee. MT. Holcomb ordered the count finished which gave the nomination to Brandegee and 1t was made unanimous. :.
 The republican majority in the assembly soon after electing MT Brandegee as the junior senator. which rank he held until Senator Mclean replaced Senator Bulkeley.
 Mir. Brandegee in the earlier part of his political life was mudh in de- mand as speaker and was regarded in the light of an orator. He made the first eulogy of Mckinley at the first annual session fthe Mckinley association in 1904. an organization which was formed the previous year that the birthday of the martyred president might be observed by the party in the state.
 Tn the early years of his political life it was also said that Mir. Bran- degee was ceaseless in his activities. Tn college he had gone In for ath- letics as well as scholarship, and for three years pulled bow oar in the Yale crew. He early jfioined many clubs, and in later life was Il popular member of the University club in New York, the Metropolitan, and Chevy Chase in Washington and number of others. He was a bach elor and was reputed to be man of much wealth.
 His law firm connections in New London were with his rather under the title of Brandegee, Moves and Brandegee, and later it became Brandegee. Kenealy and Brennaa. All three Of the latter firm members are now dead.
