The report of the special commission to inquire into alleged violation of charter provisions by the 11, made its report to the state senate this afternoon. The commission consisted of the railroad, bank and tax commissioners. The report recites the reason for the existence of the commission, originating with the attorney general's opinion a year ago, in which the attorney general was of the belief that the railroad had violated the taws of Massachusetts and that its charter and franchises were subject to forfeiture. The viola, tions alleged were the obtaining of legislation in Connecticut to permit a merger with the Connecticut consolidated railway company, in Increasing its capital Btock, between 1898 and 1897, from $47,500,000 to $121,878,000, without authority from the state, and in issuing bonds, coupon notes and other evidences of indebtedness in excess of its capital stock. The commission declares that the questions presented to it for consideration were, first, whether the charter should be repealed, and second, what action other than this, if any, should be taken.

The company's report disclosed of capital stock outstanding. of bonds and debentures, and of loans and notes payaole. The company Itself has stated its case to the commission that after 30 years of acquiescence in its policy by the railroad commissioners, the company held in 1904 the stocks and bonds of over 30 Massachusetts raihiaid corporations. The investigators say that "the situation as above indicated would present to our minds a very convincing argument against the repeal or forfeiture of tlie charter." Other reasons bring the commission to the same conclusion. To arbitrarily cut off the lines of the New York, New Haven Hartford at the state boundary would result in serious injury to the operation of the system as a whole; furthermore, the act of the legislature last year, creating the Boston Holding company, the commission says, may Ii.

implication fairly be held to be a legislative answer to the ouestlon of the re peal of the charter. The Commonwealth should be secured, however, the report soes on, in an effective control and supervision of such franchises and powers as do not fall within the exclusive jurisdiction of an other state. And the relations of Hastate and the corporations must bt clearly established. The trouble has been, in the opinion of the commission, by reason of the exercises of franchises and privileges granted by the state of Connecticut and exercised in violation of the laws and public policy of Massachusetts. If uniform legislation in the different interested states appears to be feasible it ought, if possibl, to be followed.

This would necessitate modifying Massachusetts laws controlling public utilities, but would result in a common rule of corporate conduct. The report then takes up the consideration of federal control, which the commission thinl4 would solve some of the questions presented to them. In conclusion, the commission thinks the company, having violated the laws, should seasonably present to the legis The longest sentence given to a man in the lower court for many months was that of today when Judge Parmen-ter in the second session of the municipal court, alter rinding Edward J. Chamberlain, of 28 Warrenton st, guilty of three counts of larceny of fur garments sentenced him to three years in the house of correction. Laura H.

Chamberlain, his -wife, who was found guilty of one count of larceny of a fur garment, was given one year in the same place, and this term, too, was tlie longest imposed on a woman in the lower court tor a considerable time. Mr and Mrs Chamberlain pleaded not guilty. They were arrested Saturday afternoon by inspectors Shields, Pel-ton and Patcrson. The three garments that were stolen, two of which have been recovered, were taken from un-guarued automobiles, on the street in tlie down town section of the city. The thefts occured the latter "part of October.

Mrs tirace K. Madden of Bay state road lost a fur coat valued at Another victim was Mrs Kath- erine Atkins of 5 Concord av, Belmont, wife of one of the uirectors of the sugar trust. 1 he third loss was that of a fur coat from the automobile ot Charles rriaiii ol Concord. Inspector Shields testified that Chamberlain went to a pawnshop on Broaa-way extension, where he sold the two garments, and that on one of the occasions his wife was with him. The son of the pawnbroker, who die; business with a man and woman and who handed the money over to them, was very positive Mr and Mrs Chamberlain were the same persons who brought the garments to tne store.

The defence of Mr and Mrs Chamber-Iain was an alibi, but they hail no corroboration of their statements. Both appealed. Chamberlain was held for the grand jury in (3U00 and Mrs Chamberlain in $1000. They were remanded to Charles-st jail. PI 1 I I A Jan 17 Can the Norwood i lumpel Frank E.

Jan 17 Col E. A. Wall, formerly the- owner of the Utah Copper Co, which lie sold to the present owners, and a director that company until about a year ago, has obtained an injunction from the United States circuit court, at Trenton, temporarily restraining the stockholders of the Utah Copper Co from holding a special meeting on Jan 17 and voting to increase the stock from 760.000 shares to 2,500,000 shares for the purpose of exchanging the shares of the 1'tah company for the shares of the Nevada Consolidated Copper Co on the basis of one share of the former for 2 shares of the latter. By the granting of this Injunction the merger of the two companies is temporarily held up. In asking an Injunction Col Wall claims to be acting for the best Interests of Utah shareholders, but he and his associates do not control more than 1000 shares, it Is said.

The plaintiffs argue that the proposed combination is in violation of the Sherman anti-trust act, and that the basis of consolidation Is unfair to the Utah shareholders, as the Utah property, It is alleged, Is worth much more than indicated by the exchange basis proposed. No notice of the motion for the Injunction was served on Utah representatives, nor was there an opportunity given them to present their side of the can before the restraining order was Issued. The special meeting of the Utah copper stockholders called for today will be adjourned to a later date as a result. The Injunction will be argued before the court that issued the order on Jan 24.

This should be done at the expense of the company. If the company be found financially sound the legislature then will have some ground for validating the securities.

The commission says, however, that the "commonwealth can well abhere to its policy of validating no securities of the eompanv Issued fo rany other property than for transportation or purposes incidental thereto." Provision should also be made for allowing the company to exercise its franchises without In each instance obtaining the approval of the general court itself. The commission tecommends the legislation suggested by the attorney general in providing sufficient penalties for violations of the statutes. It recommends that consideration be given to the advisability or securing outstanding debentures by placing a mortgage on the company's property. SEATS ALREADY FILLED 100 Of These Unionists Have 44, Liberals 37. Nationalists 13 and Labourites 6 Today's Contests Undecided LONDON.

Jan 17 The total number of members of parliament is 100, according to the figures available at 6 this evening. Those chosen today include John E. Redmond, the leader of the Irish nationalists, for Waterford city, and seven other nationalists, and J. B. Bonsdale, unionists, from Mid-Armagh.

These nine candidates were upoppoaed. No further returns will be available before 10, tonight. The unionists, as an individual party, still hold the lead with a total of 44 seats, while the liberals are close up with 37. Add to these the nationalists' 13 and the laborites' 6, and the governmental coalitionists show a combined strength of 56 seats. While, however, the Irish nationalists can be depended upon for a fight against the lords and for general purposes are counted as supporters of the liberals, their attitude upon the budget will depend entirely upon the guarantee they receive from the government regarding home rule.

Ireland, as a whole, undoubtedly is in favor of tariff reform, as is evidenced by the fact that the nationalist members of the last parliament refused to vote for the boudget. The balloting today was brisk from the start and the totals are probably unprecedented, as was the case on Saturday. Interest continues Intense and the party workers are lndefatigible in their efforts to get the votes today. Utah Copper Meeting Adjourned.
