M AND MR. HILL.
(Hartford Couraut).
F
l The decisions in the tariff coufeo
odes-committee will be made by the
republican members; they wlli.have
the fear of William II. Taft more or
loss before their eyes when they make
them. For present purposes the demo
cratic tail of the committee Is a hog-
ligible quantity.
Mr. Aldrich takes with him into the
conference room Messrs. Burrows of
Michigan. Peurose of Pennsylvania.
finale of Maine and Cullom of Illinois.
31in can rely upon his Burrows. Penrose
and Halo as upon himself; but for
usage and the look of the thing. he
might just as well have collected their
proxies and dismissed the senator's
themselves to the hills or beaches.
Uncle Shelby Cullom has nervous
spells as he reads the republican news
papers of his state, but he‘ll be 80 next
vember and is not likely to make
Mr. Aldrich any serious trouble. To
do business on the part of the House
with Mr. Aldrich and his senators in
the conference room. Speaker Cannon
he sent Messrs. Payne of New York.
D'alsell of Pennsylvania. McCall of
Massachusetts. Boutell of illinols. Cal-
derhead of Kansas, and i‘ordney of
Michigan. The i'aync. Dalsell and
McCall appointments explain and jus

; and neat to'Dalzcll stands McCall.
E That far down In his selections Speak-
er Cannon conformed to established
use, to’courieous precedent. But right
there \he threw courtesy and decency
to the-winds. Next to McCall on the
committee—in fourth place-stands E.
J. Hill of Connecticut. Speaker Can-
' ”Joan passed him by. appointed the be-
? loved Houtell of Illinois. passed Need-
bsm of California by. and completed
his, list of managers on the part of the
linuse by appointing Calderhead. the
Khnssaf mas. and Fordney. the Michi-
gan man. Speaker Cannon‘s expla-
nation Is that he wanted to improve
the conference committee geomvhi-
cally—make it more representative.
Did he. indeed? ‘l.ook at the republi-
can end of the conference committee
as it stands since Speaker Cannon im-
proved it. Pennsylvania has two
votes in the committee: Illinois has

Mr. Payne of New York is a tariff
. ' in the Aldrich class, and car-
«- rise a fine knowledge of his subject
into the conference room. He was at
one time a stand-patter, but he has
, loss-lied better. Mr. Dalscll has every-

notable fact that “mental!" Hill

has been omitted, just as was predict-
ed some time ago in these columns. So
far- as the members of the conference
go. they will be for the most part
(with perhaps two or three exceptions)
as mponslve to Mr. Aldrich’s voice
as a.telephona transmitter.
The "Providence Journal"
marks:
The statement that Mr. Payne was
angry when he learned who his fel-
lows on the committee were he
shows pretty conclusively wha he
thinks about it. indeed. the purpose
of the speaker is only too plain. He
wishes to make as little trouble for
Senator Aldrich as possible. and he
knows that any measures reported
from conference to the House could he
rejected only after a party mutiny that
he fancies himself able to suppress.
Does he think that smooth words can
conceal the shameful truth?

said. “Hill had every right to sit in

the sufferers by his exclusion. Payne
wanted him: Daisell wanted him. He

Tes'rmc “ms wares MAINS. .
The city water department comman-
ced last night, at midnight. to test
the water mains. The entire system
will be examined in order to ascertain
if there is any wastage of water from
the pipe lines. It is generally suppos-
ed that an underground leak will work
to the surface and show itself. in
most instances this min holds good.
By the preslmt investigation a record
will be secured ofthe fiawage of water
in the different sections of the city, if
there be any leaks, they can be traced
to the locality where the wastage ex-
ists. It hardly seems creditable that a
community of the size of South Non
walk can use 3.000.000 gallons of water
dail)’. For the past two weeks the
record shows that there is used daily
over 500.000 gallons for sprinkling. The
City of Hartford with 10433 metered
taps in 1007 used 6.500.000 gallons of
water per day. the consumption for
111.000 people was 59 gallons per cap-
ita. PreviOus to the installation of the
Filtration Plant. the amount of water
used was not known, now every gallon
is metered at the filter as it flows
from the beds and is recorded every
hour-day and night. .

CHEAPER PRICE T0 STAMFORD.
Mack Erick Cola Agent Tries to Tell
Irldgsport People Wily.
George Stevens. the "little fellow"
who acts as New England agent for
the Mack Brick 00.. had an unpleas-
ant half hour in Bridgeport, Friday
night. The Mask people had put in a
bid to furnish brick for Main street.
Bridgeport. for 829.50 per thousand,
with or without a iivoyear guarantee.
The city has awarded the contract for
Mack brick for Golden Hill street. the
same brick. at 831.20 per thousand.
The city of Stamford paid 829.70 per
thousand for Mack brick just laid
there. The company submitted a bid
of 829 in Everett. Mass. and a bid of
.25 in ilolyoke.
It was because of this sliding scale
of prices that Agent Stevens endured
the uneasy period. The Mayor and
members of the paving commission
prodded him without mercy. and he
had a hard time trying to tell why It
was that Bridgeport had always paid
so much more for brick than had oth-
er cities.
The Mayor askcd him how it was he
had cut the price to 829.76 in Stam-
ford recently. Mr. Stevens explained
that the Mack plant was built backing
up to a river bluff iii Virginia, and
the capacity was limited. and for that
reason the low price. wna made in
order to make I'OOIII for othcr brick.
Auditor Keeling. who Is clerk of the.
commission, read a letter from the
company. in which It was acknowl-
edged that Bridgeport had paid more
than had been quoted for Stamford.
Everett and to the (Jenni-client com-
pany.
Mayor Lee said: "'I‘licsc dates show
that you don't know what we are
talking about. As a matter of fact. we
have paid more than any other city.
no matter what time of the your the
bricks were ordered. You stuck us $6
a thousand more than you quoted for
liolyoko.
"How is it. tell us. that Bridgeport
always happens to buy highcr.no mat-
ter at what season it Is?"
Mr. Stevens said he had not matte
the quotation for Stamford. He said
that he always studied the situation
in any city carefully.
FLUSHI NO CITY STREET‘S.
Fireman Paid by the Street Depart-
ment for Doing the Work.
The center of the city Is being daily
flushed with water, and as a result the
big clouds of dust. particularly about
the Washington strcct railroad bridge,
are absent. This work is done by
some of the firemen, who are paid for
the job by the strect department, and
economically it is under the lstter's
auspices. The flushing is done be-
tween 4 and 5 o'clock in the morning.
and Highway Commissioner Dllniop
finds that the firemen. being equipped
for the work by their familiarity with
the hose. are the best men he can get
Washington. North and South Main
street pavements are given this daily
flushing. which adds very materially
to the comfort. as well as the cleanli-
ness of the center of the city.
