It. Is often said that President Roo-
sevelt is the enemy of corpor ions.
and this statement is made with equal
recklessness by the agitator who
seeks thereby to attract. public notice.
to himself and tmssibly win personal
advantage. and by the speculator who
feels that his career of adventure and
reckless manipulation is at an end.
"The Pmsideut is not opposed to
corporations, on the contrary, he be-
lieves ”(mercury sensible man,
that they are essential to our modern
business life. But he is opposed to all
concerns which treat the public un-
fairly, whether in the form of a cor-
poration or other combination. and so
is every other man wh is worthy t be-
ing called an Amberican citizens.
“Misrepresentation and abuse will
not drive him from his purpose to do
what he can to see that every man.
rich or poor, every business institution
whether corporation or otherwise. is
given an opportunity as far as possi-
ble. to do business on terms of equal-
iity. _
“The federal rate law recently en-
acted is for from perfect/and will
have to be amended but, itflis how-
ever, u step in the. right direction.’
Mr. llryncs wanted it understood
that if any Iqu are being broken on
the. New Haven system, thc company
does not know of it and that if any
man is breaking laws he is' contrary
to orders. Mr. Brynes brought out
‘lbe point that President Meilen was
the first railroad head to put. into
practice on his road many regulations
being forced on other roads by legis-
lation. The unfortunate phases of the
connection reputed between politics
was touched upon. in this connection
he said:
' “No reasonable man should object
to corporations taking nu‘iutcrest in
public affairs so, long as they do so
fairly. but the public does object to
corporations going into politics to se-
cure privileges or immunities they are
not entitled to. and as to speculation,
the public will never consent that spe-
culation be made a. department of the
railroad business.
It is generally believed now that
political activity on the. port of cor~
porations has been injurious to public
interests and should not continue. But
if corporations are to give. up politi-
cal activity who is to protect their
legitimate rights against the. assaults
of men the public elects to office. not
because they are honest, tall man.

cause they are opposed to corpora-
tions on general principles, regard-
less of whether what. the corporaton
wants is proper or improper?
Such men are unfit for public of-
fice. and should be, coudemuedas em-
phatically as the corporation bench.

Mr. Byrnes spoke of the wonderful
development of the mad during the
past three years, though the company
has, of course, not yet realised the
benefits from the improvements. Mr.
Byrucs emphasized that contrary to
the methods of some roads of the com-
pany, there is no watered stock in the
New Haven road. Its physical propels
ties, he said, are worth more than its
bonded stock, without even taking into
consideration the franchise which is
worth several million dollars. The
speaker paid a high tribute to Presi-
dentiMellen and stamped him as the
most enterprising railroad president in
the United States. Mr. Byrnes had
been associated with Mr. Mellon a
number of years and made the state.

Mr. Byrnes assured his hearers will be
remedied when the improvements are
finished.
He expressed great faith in the Am-
erican people standing by a railroad
when it believes the road is trying to
do the. right thing. in closing he said
that President Mellon has won his
spurs as a railroad man but great
rlory will rsdound to him nevertheless,
when he accomplishes his great work
of building a model railroad and given

When Mr. Byrnes had concluded and
after the applause. subsided, Toast-
master Wheeler, in behalf of the As-
sociation, made Messrs, Byrnes and
Higgins honorary members of the Nor-
walk Business Men's Association. In
behalf of the Association, Dr. Carl
Axel Harstrom thanked the guests in
a hearty manner for their presence and

About emu» Day Over
the Lockwood Will .
um an'y m‘ 'a.
a smiling
i dark-eyed young In from New
Canaan, told the ( in Bridgeport
yesterday morning on the Lockwood
will_cnae was resumed in the superior
court, that her aunt. Mrs. Sarah J.
Lockwood, said she had made her will .
so there should be no fighting over it.
The jury smiled at this as they
thought of the long days in listening
to family squabblea over money and
heard hitter things said by stator ag-
ainst sister. and brother against bro.
ther. .
Miss Raymond made a rattling
good witness. No voluntary Informs.-
tion came from her. it was "yes" and
“no." as the case renuircd, in this
most direct form.
The. young woman had a nice little
tilt with Senator Judson who cross ex-
amined for the contesting branch.
She smiled at his questions and then
answered most correctly.
Womanly Comment.
Miss Raymond was on the stand for
the sisters. Alice and Emily. The
other branch of the family did v’not
look upon the young woman with fa.
vor. _ Once‘when Mr. Judson asked:
“You hays a mind of your owni". and
the young woman replied, “i think I
have,” the united comment was “The
,hussy.“
Miss Raymond said she used to do
dressmaking to:- the lockwood fam-
ily. mainly for, Alice and Emily, and
Aunt Jane. asshe called Mrs. Lock-
wood. She would be at tho Lockwood
house often for six months in the year
and she saw Quite a little of the fam-
ily workings.
What Aunt Jane Said.
She recalled that Aunt Jane said:
"I have mudc my will and some of the
children will get all that is coming to
them." Witness said that Alice and
Emily did not have. good health, but
she was sure. Alice did more of' the
work than Ada.
On another occasion after u con
versation with Ada. the witness heard
Mrs. Lockwood say: “i don’t propose
to allow any of my children to dictate
to me whil.- l have. n roof over my
head." Miss Raymond said her aunt
was a woman of good business judg-
ment with a mind of her own.
Miss Raymond told of the conversat-
tion she had with Miss Ada since the
trial was started. Miss Ada said she
did not want to have anything to do
with it and if she had known how it
was going to be she would have gone
away.
On cross examination Miss Raymond
was asked whether she had not been
favored by Miss Alice. She said not
specially.
“Don't you use. Miss Alice‘s horse?”
Congressman E. J. Hill gave the
closing address on the program and
though the hour was past midnight,
his hearers were, all eager to hear him
nxplnin the present situation at Pana-
Jill. To aid him In more fully ex-
wluiniug the conditions, he had never-
1i large and comprehensive maps.
Congressman Hill expressed un-
bounded confldcnrc in Engineer John
F. Stevens mill is enthusiastic in his
belief that the work will be brmght
to n. successful isnuc in ten 't'ill's.
Mr. Hill also believes that the work
will. cost twice. as much as estimated
and expects that the government will
be collcd~upou to appropriate from
$150,000,000 to $200,000,000 to complete
