CONGREOBMAN HILL'S WARNING.
The inter-state. commerce commls~
oion has destroyed Coagressrnan Hill's
argument that a distance tariff on
railroads worrld be the next thing to
disturb the industrial conditions. says
the New London Day. Congressman
Hill. at the dinner recently of the
West‘SIde Workingmen‘s Club at ilart-
ford. made a very eloquent and forc-
ible address in Whichdre advanced the
theory that on account of the prevail-
ing tendency toward railroad regula-
tion a distance tariff for the shipment
of goods would inevitably follow, so
that the cost of transportation would
be the same per mile, whether the
goods were shipped one mile or one
thousand. The passenger tariff Con-
grossman Hill cited as already being
placed on the distance basis by say
oral railroads. notably the New York.
New Haven and Hartford, and in the
congressman's opinion. the satire bav
sis will be used 411 the future In fixing
freight transportation charges.
The inter-state commerce commis-
sion in a case brought by an oil pro-
ducer to compel a railroad to grant
Mn the same rate per mile for a short
haul as the road charged for long
hauls, ruled that “to make distance the
sole factor in determining a reasonable
rate would introduce undue discrimin-
ation and create chaotic- commercial
conditions.”
The complainant stated that the
carrier's rates on refined oil, at the
date of his petition, from Eric, Kan-
sas. to Joplin, Mo., 69 miles, and to
St. Louis Mo. .400 miles, ware ’17 cents
per 100 pounds. Later, the rate from
Eric to Joplin was reduced to 15 cents,
which is the rats prevailing from oth
or oil shipping points in Kansas to
Joplin.
In its decision the commission says:
"The rates to Joplin, St. Louis, and
Kansas City», from these producing
points are apparently adjusted with a
view to placing" the shippers on an
equitable basis, and affording them
equal opportunities in the markets."
Congressman Hill warned New Eng-
land manufacturers that if a distance
tariff went into effect they would be
able to ship their goods no further
west, on acch'rrnt of the excessive
freight charges under that tariff, ihan
the Ohio river. that they should look
toward the ocean for an outlet for
their products, for which they could
find a market in South America, the
islands of the sea and our different i11—
sular possessions.
Notwithstanding the decision of fire
inter-state commerce commission at
this time. the congressman may still
have a prophetic vision. Commissions
may change in personnel in the. course
of a few years and no man can deny
,_ that the prescni tendency toward gov-
."F‘on
ernment and state regrrlatiolr is so
strong that if It continues on 1111-
checked no hunrau being can foretell
where it will bringms.

JAPANESE CHILDREN OBEDIENT.
The instinct of obedience seems to
be lnnuic in Iapanese children. When
they are told that the first Monday of
September-or whatever date their
school year may begin—4111s arrived.
and um they must make ready for
school they never pout or cry or pro
test or say they hate school and would
rather stay at home and play; instead.
they smile and say, “Yes. my most

rule, Japanese children love their
teachers and obedience Is no hardship.

There. were large audiences in attend-
rzrrr c and the presentations w ere excel
lent in every respect. The well-known
comedian, John W. Rani-rope. was es-
pecially good. and received the un-
silnted applause of the audiences. The
songs ware new and catchy and the
music excellent.
Mr. ltausone claims Norwalk as his
home. In fact, he spends all his sunr-
mers on his farm adjacent to the (‘ity
of Nor-walk. and during the. holiday
period for theatrical folk is a familiar
figure with his horse and buggy on
the streets of Tire Norwalks, Winni-
pauk and the highways leading there
to.
Like all members of his profession
Mr. Hansorre delight to revel in the
simple life. of the farm during that
part of the year in which the theatres
are closed. After looking over a num-
ber of desirable places in which to
spend his surrrnrers be selected Con-
necticut. When it is remembered that
Mr. Ransonc is from Missouri. being
born in thr- city of St. Joseph. and
like all Missourians, has to be
"shown," it is speaking volumes for
the hospitality of the. people of Nor-
walk and surrounding suburbs when it
is known that he. is more than de-
lighted with his selection. So much
Is he in love with the town of his
adoption and its people that he could
not wait until the end of the season
to visit It, but requested his manager.

take 11p country life.

CANOE PICKED UP IN THE SOUND.
The Sound tug Bulley. which urrolv-
ed in New Haven from New York yes
terday with a tow_ brought in a 30
foot canoe which was picked 11p adrift
last evening in the sounrl oq Stratford
Point. There were two paddles and a
cushion in it.
Captain Dodds of the liulley thinks
that the canoe belongs at one of the
shore resorts near Sirui ford and that
it broke. from its moorings and drifted
out into the sound. He does not think
that there is a tragedy belrlnd it.
The boat was'turned over to George
F. McCaffery. the local agent for the

Two Difficult Engincerln Feats Ac
complishcd by T om.
Bridge engineers of the New Haven
road have completed two difficult oper-
ations in the erection of a new steel
bridge at the Pequot avenue cut in
New mndon and the other the replac-
ing of a bridge over Black Hall river
near Say.brook
had charge of the work of changing
bridge No. 358 at Black Hall. where
the west-bound track was changed last
Sunday. Formerly the railroad crossed
this river on a trestle 320 feet long
and at a grade 1.5 inches lower than
the present one, which is made to aid
in approaching the new Connecticut
river bridge which is higher than the
old one. The new work at Black Hall
river includes erection of concrete ap-
proaches covering 280 feet of the 320
and the substitution of a 40-foot bridge
for the old one.
