crowned champions Of the Ear

night when they handed Ralph
Ruggle's team II to 10 setback

new BILL LOWERS
AUTOMOBILES FEES
Two Months Free Regis
trati0n Given Drivers
By Legislature

Two months free registration
and licensing having been given
automobile drivers through the
adoption by the legislature OF the
bill reducing registration fees
from the present SIS to $4S pass
enger car range to three classes at
81, 50 and Sill.
Advocated by Commissioner Con-
nor since he took office, the Dill
becomes effective as to the regis
tration feature on February 2s,
1895. That means that all persons
who registered their cars as OF
January /, this year, will get two
months free registration.
The bill also extended to April
80 the date when operators IL
censes become due, so that drivers
who renewed their licenses Febru-
ary 2S this year, also get two
months free licensing. According
to Senator William c. Hungerford,
chairman of the committee on mo-
tor vehicles, the bill extended the
dates of the registration and licen-
sing periods to enable the motor
vehicle department to make ade-
auate provision for the changes in
its work which the bill makes
necessary.
A third change is made in the
date for payment of gasoline tax
es. The new cents a gallon tax
on gasoline will be effective on
october of his year, the date
having been advanced from April
1 so as to get money into the
state treasury for the winter
months.
1t is expected that the increased
use of automobiles on the state
highways during the twelve months
of the year and the additional l
per cent tax on gasoline eventual
ly will return to the state the APP
proximately 100000 lost through
the reduction of registration fees.
AS to trucks, the reductions vary
from one-third to two-thfrds the
present registration fees, that OF
the smaller trucks being reduced
from $28 to the new scale OF $40,
to SIS, and the heaviest trucks
from the peak Of $3.50 to 5000.

WATERBURY CASES
i'm SUPREME COURT
Appeals Scheduled for
Hearings Next Wednes-
day Morning

The supreme court of errors will
hear appeals in two Waterbury
cases at session to be held this
Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock.
The cases listed for hearings are
those of Charles Mast against the
General Ice Cream Corps. and
Mary v. Wallace's appeal from the
decision of Compensation Commits
sioner James M. Lynch.
In the Mast case, the plaintiff
was awarded a $500 verdict
against the ice cream company by
a common pleas court jury April
II, 1884. Judge Miles F. McNiff
later denied motion to have the
verdict set aside and an appeal to
the supreme court followed.
Mast was injured severely about
he head when a descending ele-
vator on the defendants platform
came down suddenly upon him.
His scalp was severely torn. The
accident happened about 6:45
o'clock in the morning of Septem-
Der %, 1882. Mascolo, Mcknight
& Dauch represented the plaintiff
and Attorney Walter E. Monagan
defended. The same counsel will
appear before the supreme court
on Wednesday.
5 In the Wallace case, Commits
sioner Lynch denied the claim for
an additional compensation to Mrs.
Wallace on the grounds that stipu-
lation agreement between her and
the company for whom her hus-
band, William, worked, was bind
ing and could not be disturbed.
The claimant held that she did not
know when she signed the stipu-
lation agreement that her hus-
bands back condition was so seri-
GUS as to later cause his death.
She will be represented by Attor-
ney Vincen A. Miller. Attorney
Walter E. Monagan appears for the
other side.

John n. Goss, vice-president
and general superintendent of
the Scovill Manufacturing
Company, together with State
Labor Commissioner Joseph
M. Tone of New Haven, VIII
liam f. Steinmiller of Hart
ford and Professor Clyde o.
Fisher of Wesleyan University,
were expected to step in to-
day or Monday in an effort to
settle the prolonged strike at
the plant of the Colt Manu-
featuring Company in Hart
ford. Mr.. Goss and the other
three are members of the
newly appointed state board of
arbitration and mediation.
Labor Commissioner Tone
stated last night that he will
call the board into action. He
explained that his power of
arbitration originally came
through the regional NRA
board and since the NRA has
been declared unconstitutional
he believes it best now that
the settlement of the strike be
placed in the hands of the

ing back to work gradually
with the result that the total
now working is LOO. The
strike has been in progress
for several weeks.
The new board of arbitra-
ton and mediation was NOM
mated by Governor Wilbur l..
Cross a month and a half ago
and was approved by the leg
islature. Senator Joseph III.
IIawlor of this city was a
member of the old board of
arbitration and m d ia tion
which however, did not func-
ton for several years because
the NRA powers gave more
strength to the decisions of
Labor Commissioner Tone.
During the last state campaign
Governor Cross was assailed by
the g. o. p. gubernatorial
nominee, Attorney Hugh M.
Alcorn, because of the In
activity of the board,
