LEGISLATION Washington, Sept. 25 On the heels of the Interstate Commerce Commis sion's scathing denouncement of the New Haven road for the recent North Haven wreck, in which it was held that man failures, beginning with its high officers and ending with its trainmen, were responsible for the loss of 21 lives, sentiment in Congress rapidly began to crystalize in a move ment to take up the whole subject of legislation for trains at the December term. Backed by the influence of the In terstate Commerce Commission, an effort will be made to empower the commission to deal with such 'ques tions as steel cars and modern safety equipment. Commissioner McChord is drafting a .bill to place such power with the commission. Representative Stevens, of. New Hampshire, a member of the Interstate Commerce Commission, and a committee, today, began hearings preliminary to the drafting of a slml lar bill. The McChord bill, according to Mr. htevens, will be ready for introduc tion in the House, next week. After public hearings, Mr. Stevens hopes to present a report and a revised bill to the House late in November so that it may take up immediately after Con gress convenes in December. The hearing will be devoted to in ventors. Experts in railroad opera tion will be heard before a report is made. , . ' LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Editor of The Farmer. Sir: Owing to the fact that there recently appeared in your paper a news item covering the proceedings of the State Federation of Labor, held in New Britain, at which a Mr. Flan- nigan, the president, denounced the Industrial Workers of the . World and kindred organizations, " we feel that we owe it to the workers of Bridge port to make clear several faults and confusing ideas relative to the Indus trial Workers of the World. Up to the 1905 convention of the I. W. W.,' there was only one organiza tion. At that convention, a certain clique of anarchistically inclined dele gates strove to read out f the pre amble the declaration that the work ers must come together on the oliti- cal as well as the economic field. The result was a split, with the Haywood St. John bunch, declaring "Strike at the ballot box with an axe,' . and forth. with starting headquarters in Chica go. Those who still stuck to the or iginal principles proceeded . to estab lish headquarters at Detroit, v No one knows better and deplores more, than those who fought to es tablish and who are still upholding the fight for the establishment of a true form of Industrial Organization, the havoc wrought by what is known as the "Bummery" the- Chicago Or ganization. By their -cry of "Sabotage,". "Direct Action,". t "Strike at the Ballot Box with An Axe , tney have aroused only the brutal savagery of misled, workers and proved themselves busardsr of the Labor Movement. I The Detroit organization -of the ' I. W. W. still proceeds upon its misBion; striving to arduse the working class to a realization of its historical mis sion; to organize industrially on the economic field, and eventually through the fiat of the ballot transfer the ma chinery of industry into their rightful possession. Let Mr. Flannigan, therefore, and all of his kind who hang on to the old , craft style of organization, kind ly make a distinction it will at least show a mark of intelligent discern ment. If not of conception. Thanking you for the privilege of the space given,1 we remain, Respectfully yours, LOCAL 112, I. W. W Henry Reversz. COMPTROLLER DUNN TURNS IN FEE FOR $600,000 IN RONDS Hartford, Sept ' 25 Comptroller Daniel P.

CONGRESSMEN STILL SUPPORTING IIOOIIE Are Not Finally Convinced That He Is Out Of Judgeship Race. A special to the Farmer -from Wash ington ' says that the members of the Connecticut congressional delega tion who have been favorable to the candidacy of former Senator Thomas F. Noone of RockviUe for judge of the United States District court to fill the vacancy caused by the death of the late Judge Piatt are still for Noone and have not given up hope of success. Congressmen Lonergan, Reilly, Don ovan and Maban had a talk with the President yesterday concerning Mr. Noone and while none of the congress men will disclose what took place It is the general impression that if an other name is to be submitted to the President this will not be done until the four congressmen have finally con cluded that Mr. Noone is definitely out of the running. Despite reports to the contrary the congressmen referred to have not as yet reached that conclusion and In the meantime they assert they are still for Noone. - r From another Washington source The Farmer learned that the President will name no man for the place who has not the support of the original Noone congressional supporters and whoever is finally named will have the support of the four congressmen, f A dispatch to The Fanner from Hartford says that the friends of Mr. Noone up that way have heard that he will not be appointed.
