NEW HAVEN MORNING JOURNAL AND COURIER. MONDAY AFKIL a lilOOT,
GOVERNOR'S PARTY BACK
FROM JAMESTOWN FAIR
(Continued from First Page.)
The dedication exercises for the Con
buildings were hell on Saturday.
The exercises were interesting
throughout. Prayer was offered by the
Kev. John G. Davenport, pastor of the
Second Congregational church of Wa
terbury, following which came the for
malpresentation of the building by
Sgrfhuel A. Eddy, president of the Con
necticut commission.
Among those present were Governors
Swanson of Virginia, Warfleld of Ma
ryland, Ansell of North Carolina and
Lee of Delaware. Governor Swanson,
of Virginia, made the address of wel
come. He said, in part:
"The Connecticut building Is a model
New England home, which is saying
that it Is an ideal home. It is a home
where the purity of woman and the in
tegrity of manhood are the ideals.'' He
further called attention to the fact that
In the Connecticut party, official, unof
ficial and Independent, the number
landed with Captain John Smith at the
founding of Jamestown in 1607. The
number was 105. "Captain Smith," said
Governor Swanson, "was the first gov
ernor of Virginia and was also admiral
of New England. This is another tie
that should bind us closer together."
In his reply Governor Woodruff paid
a tribute to the early settlers, both of
the Jamestown settlement and of that
In Connecticut, in the following speech:
As long as Captain John Smith was
in command the early settlers of Vir
ginia were safe from starvation. He
made them work. He knew that the
Englishmen were Inclined to take It
easy, and when they did take ij easy
they were in danger of starving to
death. This scheme of self-preservation,
Inaugurated by Smith at the be
ginning of the settlement of James
town, is the secret of the great success
that also marks- the history of Con
necticut and has made the American
nation.
We are hard-working people and have
shared In the profits of our toil. The
labor of our ancestors was not in vain,
and the legacy of their thrift is the
United States of America. Our na
tional triumph lies not only in work,
but in the spirit of liberty which gave
the laborer an inspiration to build
something that would last forever. At
the very root of our national existence
is the spirit of liberty, and our history
is the story of man's struggle to be
free.
In this struggle faint heart had no
place, for it took the Iron will of all
the ages to master the stubborn resist
ance that stood In the pathway of the
men who held their own at the settle
ment of Jamestown and anchored the
lion-hearted valor on Plymouth Rock
that hard headed and dauntless yeo
manry, with muscle and with nerve,
the noblest adventurers and bravest
band of freemen the world has ever
known. There they stood in old Vir
gin! aand in New England some 300
years ago, alone in the savage wilder
ness, and planted the spirit of liberty,
neve? to be conauered or subdued
while creation last and the rainbow
-draws its promise in the sky. They
stood for self-preservation, Relf-govern-ment,
a democracy of thought and ac
tion, faith and perseverance, a profound
and immovable confidence in God.
Connecticut is proud of her history trs
a state, but not vain because of it.
The work she has done in the structure
of American civilization is solid and
enduring. She is so fixed in the' edifice
that we cannot consider the achieve
ment without recognizing Connecticut
at the very foundation of it all. Her
place in this great commemoration Is
established and secure; and we are
Klad to share the glory of the day with
those distinguished sister states in
whose company Connecticut has been
faithful and steadfast from the begin-
. nlng.
We come here at this hour to receive
this memorial in the name of Connecti
cut, and to show by our exhibit that
"the land of steady habits" Is still hard
at work in enterprises of education, of
the brain and the hand and the heart;
the courage of invention and manufac
ture and commerce; statesmanship and
civic pride; solidity of social order,
which comes from the discipline and
justice based upon the fundamental
1 principle of success, laid down by the
general assembly of Connecticut in
1C5-', when the freemen of the towns
adopted the first constitution in the his
tory of mankind, a pure democracy and
the very germ of the American nation.
And we are here to show that our com
monwealth Is still hard at work upon
those things that make life reasonable
and comfortable and profitable, and to
bear our part In th eevolutlon of the
nation, as long as this union prevails.
In receiving this building for the peo
ple of Connecticut I desire to congratu
late the commissioners upon the endur
ing monument whjch marks the Anglo
Saxon entrance of the western world;
and to the governor of Virginia is ex
ttended the heartiest greeting of our
commonwealth.
The governor,and a large party will
return on Connecticut day, October 2C.

Wllllnm F. Wheclon, Asred 7", Foils Into
r. Rrook.
Madison, April 2S. William F. Whe
don was drowned in a brook at the
rear of his residence to-day. He was
discovered by his grandson, Paul Red
field, a sophomore at Yale, who had
just returned from church with his
mother. Mr. Whedon was lying face
down in the brook and is believed to
have been dead an hour when found,
lie would have been seventy-seven
years old on the first of May. It is
supposed that he had gone to the brook
for water for the horse, and that he
had lost his balance adn had fallen into
the stream. He is survived by a
brother, sister, son, daughter and
grandson.
Mr. Whedon was a native of this
place and one of Its prominent resi
dents. At one time he held stock in a
number of sailing vessels built lure,
but had disposed of his holdings, it. is
understood, with the exception of an
interest in the schooner Jennie E.
Righter.
GOV, HUGHES SPEAKS ON
STATE LEGISLATION
(Continued from First Page.)
"There is a matter of particular in
terest with reference to the proposed
commission for regulation of public
service. To elect these commissioners
woulj be a mistaken policy. That is a
part of the administrative work of the
state the responsibility for which
should be lodged in the governor, who
should have the power of removal. In
this way unity, responsibility and effi
ciency of administration would be sec
ured which others would be Impossible.
"We do not want our offices conduct-
Led by men who simply Keep within the
penal code, and do not outrage the
moral sentiment of the community. We
want efficient administrator, men who
are not only honest but capable, men
who have a high standard of adminis
trative duty, who do not proceed along
the line of least resistance, but are in
tent on giving the service to which the
public is entitled. The governor's posi
tion would not be reviewable before the
courts of law, but it would be review-
bef?re the.ibar of public opinion
You have witnessed in this country
the most fiasrant disregard of public
duty on the part of those who enjoy j
public privilege. You have witnessed ;
stock jobbery and financial operations j
which no one has the audacity to de
fend. You have seen economies en
forced at the public expense in order
that fixed charges and guarantees im
properly created could be met. You
lu:ve seen the public convenience ignor
ed and the people herded together not
simply when the pressure of traffic dur
ing certain hours exceeded all available
means of transportation, but at ather
times when therewas no necessity ex
cept as it lay in proper financiering.
"Now, I propose that we shall hive
just and efficient regulation of public
service. I propose that the state shall
exercise its powers to see that the peo
ple got their due. No legislation under
tiie constitution can deprive men of
their constitutional rights, or of an op
portunity to test them.
"iiut it is a very different matter to
provide a scheme of appeal which
wt uld delay every administrative pro
ceeding and tie up every order where no
such right is involved. This would make
con missioners mere scribes, and result
in place of having five railroad commis
sioners, who would devote special at-
tior. to the subject and have opportuni
ty to become experts, In appointment of
five judges of the supremo court, who
in addition to the mugnlture of their
Judicial labors would be asked to un
dertake the duties of administration,
and In Inviting in all cases the delays
Incidental to litigation.''

Re-
St. Louis. April 28. The Central
Trades and Labor union of St. Ixi.uls
to-day refused to endorse a resolution
by the Pattern Makers' organization,
hi tucking President Roosevelt for Ills
terming as undesirable citizens Mover
and Haywood, officers of the Western
Federation of Miners. Members of the
central labor body declared: "No mat
ter what we may think of Mr. Roose
velt, we must, as good citizens respect
the office of the chief magistrate of our
republic."
New York, April 2S The Central
Federated union to-day instead of
unanimously condemning President
Roosevelt for his action In the Moyer
Haywood matter. stood about evenly
divided on the question which has stir
red labor unions all over the country.
Mr. Roosevelt's record as to his atti
tude toward labor, from the time he
was a New York assemblyman until he
became president, was brought into tho
light.
The discussion, which lasted for
more than three hours, was the most
bitter one ever heard In the Universi
ty settlement building, where the meet
ing was held. The upshot was that the
meeting, representing more than 100,000 1
workers in Manhattan, ordered that the
committee of three appointed at last
Sunday's meeting, go to Washington
and have a talk on the situation with
President Roosevelt.
ItOW-BOAT OVERTURXED.
Three Wnlllngford Men Hnil nn Early
Season Swim In llnrhor.
About 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon,
when Captain Gus Marshall was re
turning with a party of twenty-four in
a large fishing schooner from an all
day fishing trip, he saw a rowhoat over
turned In the harbor and also per
ceived three men struggling In the wa
ter near it.
With his boat he went to the rescue
of the men and helped them from the
water Into his fishing boat. The three '
men, who were Henry E. Slden, John
Lucey and Adolph Wagner, of Wal
lingford, were taken to 123 Carlisle
street, where they were taken care of.
The three men had left early yester
day morning In the rowhoat for a ride
on the harbor and incidentally to try
their luck at fishing. Slden, who Is a
very heavy men, attempted to move
about In the boat in order to get a more
comfortable position, and lo! over went
the boat, the three men with it. They
were floundering about in the harbor,
shouting for help, when perceived by
Captain Marshall's fishing party.
The condition of the three unfortu
nate men is by no means serious, al
though Siden has not quite recovered
from the shock of so cold and so early
a bath in the ocean.

PEACE AND PLENTY OF
' WORK TO MARK MAY DAY
(Continued from First Page.)
The most serious condition existing in
Boston is due to the strike a month ago
of teamsters. In Ne England at large
there are several causes for unrest In
cotton mills, and it is reported that an
attempt will be made to advance wages
in Fall River some time next month.
PITTSBURG AXD VIC1XITY.
May Dy Expei-lert to Puss AVlth Few
Disputes'.
Pittsburg, April 29. May day In
Pittsburg and vicinity is expectod to
pass off with less laber disputes than
in previous years. Heretofore consid
erable difficulty has been experienced
between the workmen and building
trades but this year scales have been
signed and the men are apparently sat
isfied. With the exception of the machinists,
about 300 of whom are already on
strike, it is believed all the wage scales
will be amicably adjusted. The ma
chinists are striking for an increase of
wares and shorter hours.
ST. LOUIS AXD THE SOUTHWEST.
Employers nnil I.nlior Lenders Derlnre
Condition Better Thim In Yours.
St. Louis, April 2S Employers and
labor leaders of St. Louis and the south-
' west report labor conditions better for
May 1 this year than for many years
past. Practically all wage settles in
St. Louis and the surrounding terri
i tory for 200 miles are signed. It. St.
Louis alone this includes 120,000 union
men. The unions allied with the build
ing trades council here are alllgned for
the ye.ir with the exception of a very
few men employed in small shops.
There are about 40,000 men in these
unions.
Other branches of trade show a slm
! Ha good condition. The brewery work
: era who were on a strlKo a few weeks
ago have now signed. Employers and
labor leaders say there will be nothing
this-, year in local circles to hinder great
activity.

Chicago, April 2S. The relations be
tween employer and employ? we're
probably never so harmonious in Chic
ago as they are now. In tho past, on
May 1, there have usually been differ
ences between the labor unions and the
employers in Chicago, but this year
there is scarcely a cloud on the Indus
trial horizon.
Every union In the building industry,
with tiie exception of the structural
iron workers, has renewed contracts
with employers, and the Iron workers
expect to reach a settlement without
a strike. Machinists have demanded,
an increase of 23 cents a day In wages,
but the. Indications are that there will
practically be no trouble in putting the'
new schedule into effect. Most of the
larger firms In the city have signified
a willingness to grant the Increase, and
If any strikes are called May 1st they
will bo conlinei to Individual firms.
The brick makers are now holding con
ferences with their employers and will
probably reach a settlement beforo
next week,

San Francisco, April 28. Union la
bor's New Year's Day, May 1, will find
San Francisco facing serious labor
troubles. FJ!een unions, Including ev
ery branch of the metal trades, have
called meetings to be held between now

will bo taken to decide whether the
men shall accept the offer of a continu
ance of the nine-hour day with a five

call for a mass meeting at. midnight
Tuesday to take a vote on the refusal
of the United Railroads to grant mo
tormcn and conductors an eight hour
day and a. wage rate of $3 a day. If
a strike should be voted, the entire

XO STATE POLICE.
Sunday Closing I, aw Left to New
Hn-
ven Force Yesterday.
The state police made no visit to New
Haven yesterday as far as the New
Haven police department has been able
to discover. The fact that certain
Grand avenue saloons were revealed to
chief Wrinn as falIing to s1lut u hn?
on Sunday and tho added fact that this
had been the case for several succes-
sive Sundays led some speculative per
1 sons to believe that the state constabu
lary was coming down to show the New
Haven force just how the Sunday clos
ing law should be enforced. I p in
Hartford the other Sunday the state
uollce lead a raid that was worth about
$::,0fi0 to the citv treasury
Evidently New Haven has been left to
clcsn its own saloons.
That drunkenness is not on the de
cline in New Haven is attested by the
fact that twenty-three drunks were ar
nsted late Saturday night and early
yesterday morning.
LEGATIONS SI OX ED BY MOD.
Report of Outrage Against the Ameri-
nnd Mexican In Gnutemnln.
San Antonio, Tex., April 2S. A dis
patch to the Express from Mexico City
says:
The most extreme indignation and
wild excitement have been caused here
by the report that the American and
the Mexican legations in Guatemala
city have been stoned by a mob of
several hundred men, instigated to the
act by agents of President Manuel Es
trada Cabrera, of Guatemala. There is
evident a strong Inclination to give cre
dence to the report, and no official de
nial has been made, though the federal
authorities refuse to confirm it.
Mexican troops are mobilizing on the
Guatemala frontier, which action is be
lieved to be highly significant, though
the department has stated that the mo
bilization of troops is nothing more
than a move to insure strict neutrality
and to protect Mexican interests
against any remote danger from Irre
sponsible, marauding bands. The mo
billed forces in the south will be un
der the command of Brigadier-General
Antonio R. Flores, directly assigned to
the duty by the war department. He
will be aided by Captain of Engineers
Salas, who has already left here for
the Isthmus of Tehuantepec.
Reports are also current here that
Minister Gamboa, -representing Mexico
in Guatemala, has left that country
and crossed Into Mexican territory as
the result of friction with Cabrera's
government growing out of telegrams
sent from Mexico to Guatemala rela
tive to the assassination of General
Manuel Barillas.
Passports are said to be in prepara
tion for Minister Manuel Girone, Gua
temala's representative in Mexico, for
his return to his own country.

London, April 2$. Eustace II. Miles,
the holder of the court tennis cham
pionship, has reconsidered his decision
not. to defend his title and says that,
owing to pressure from friends, he will
now, if no objection Is offered, practice
hard for a week and do his best to de
fend the championship by playing the
winner of the semi-final round of the
tournament now in progress, next Sat
urday, or Monday. The semi-final is to
be played Friday and the winner of It,
by reason of Miles' default, was to be
declared champion.
Jay Gould, the American player who
has reached the seml-llnal stage, in an
interview to-day expressed considera
ble annoyance at this sudden change in
Miles' plans. He said he came here x-
pressly to meet Miles, nut as tho cham
pion declined to play he accepted the
situation and arranged to leave Eng
land imedlately after the last game Is
played next Friday. This new situa
tion would upset all his plans. lie Iihs
not yet made up his mind whether he
wlil meet Miles and will fake a week to
ponder the question. Then lie will eith

Forest Fires AVnrnlnnc Given.
The question of forest or woodland
fires Is of great Importance in country
districts, especially during April and
May, when most of these fires occur.
Although Connecticut is not subject to
the immense and devastating forest
fires which characterize coniferous for
est regions, the ground fires, which are
everywhere so common in the state, do
very serious damage. Where they do
not kill the timber outright they injure
its prowth and make it susceptible to
fungous diseases, which result in death
sooner or later.
All young seedlings and sprouts are
killed, thus delaying for many years
f( rest regeneration; and the humus o'
vegetation mold is destroyed, so that
deterioration of the soil results from
every fire.
It is safe to say tli.it the almost
worthless condition of thousands of
acres in Connecticut is largely due to
these fires.
The people of the state should do all
in their power to prevent these fires,
just as they would prevent the burn
ing of buildings or other property.
Farmers burning brush should be
particularly careful to select, quiet days,
and preferably do it toward nightfall,
when there is little wind. They should
also observe the law relative to the
clearing of land about such fires.
Teachers in public schools cannot
celebrate Arbor day better than by im
pressing upon the minds of the children
the evils of setting these fires, which
are so often due to the child's love of
excitement.
Any one seeing a forest fire should
at once notify the lire warden in his
neighborhood, and If he has Information
regarding the setting of such a fire,
I this should be imiparted to the warden.
The law gives one half of the fine col
, lected to persons furbishing such tnfor
I niation. The wardens of this region are
' as follows:
Cheshire Henry E. Terrell, George
'At water, C. S. Gillette, John J. Warner,

NEW PEST
For Apple Trees Appears in This
State.
A bulletin just issued from the agri
cultural experiment station at Storrs,
this state, says:
A small Insect known as the apple
leaf-miner appeared in unusually large
numbers during the past season. Al
though the Insect has been known for
about a century and has become well
distributed over 'the eastern part of tho
United States and Canuda, it has never
been regarded as a serious pest until
last year, when it was reported as do
ing serious injury in Vermont.
This year many partially defoliated
trees have been observed as a result of
this pest.
The insect makes a mine in the leaf,
which appears on the upper surface as
a large brownish patch. If many mines
occur on the leaf it will roll up and its
functions cease.
TWO BROODS A SEASON.
Two brooils occur in a season. ' The
second is the more serious. The insect
spends the winter as a caterpillar with
in the mine. j
Certain parasites are doing efficient
work in controlling this pest. Unfavor
able weather conditions also contribute
to its destruction.
As the insect .feeds internally it can
not be reached by insecticides. The
only means at our disposal is to gather
up and destroy the infested leaves, or
plow (hem under. The latter operation
1." recommended, for the reason that
many other injurious species would be
destroyed at the same time,
