Slavko Grouitch, wife of the Serbian under secretary for foreign af- fairs and the one who induced Dr. Catherine Travis of this city to go to Serbia to help wage war on sickness among the civilian population, sends discouraging news regarding. health conditions in that unhappy land. spite the noble fight home and for- eign physicians are putting up, grim death stalks abroad and the situation is anything but hopeful. Mrs. William Kinnicutt Draper, sec- retary of the New York branch.of the Red Cross society, has received a let- ter. from Mme. Grouitch in which the unequal battle between disease and the army of physicians and nurses is described. Malaria is everywhere, the letter says and distress and sickness is almost overwhelming. The informa- tion to Mrs, Draper is written from the Serbian Bay hospital at Nish under date of September 24. Among other things, the letter says: “Over 300 cases have been treated in the dispensary in the first five weeks. Poor women walk all night from distant’ villages to bring their children of all ages. It has been heartbreaking to see the wretched, absolutely starved little bodies, and the awful cases of hernia due to the poor mother and baby having been uncared for at the time of birth. We are sadly in need of drugs of all kinds. A pint bottle of bismuth mixture costs 12 francs in the local drug store; other drugs are’ equaly dear. “No one wishes to have epidemic anywhere, but every one wants Dr. Strong back again. And, indeed, there is still a great work for the Red Cross and the Rockefeller Foundation to do out here. Malaria is almost as great a curse as typhus —whole villages are stricken with it, and at Skopje the hospitals have al- ways a large number of taeir own staffs as well as many patients ill with it. Only a thorough campaign like that made at Panama will ever rid the country of it, and that will be too expensive for this government to un- dertake for many years. “And now we stand on the eve of another ! for Self-Government, an organization compriging 925. American, . German, Lithuanian, Italian, Bohemian, Polish, | Rumanian, Jewish, Croatian, Swedish, Swiss, Danish, Norwegian, Irish and Austro-Hungarian subsidiary societies. Officers of the United Sociéties said 101,470 ‘persons took part, 32,930 on foot and 68,540 in autos and other vehicles. Those on foot marched ten abreast paralleling at first a double line of autos and horse-drawn ve- hicles., It required more than two hours for ‘the pedestrians to pass the reviewing stands in Grant Park. Mayor Thompson declined an invi- tation to review the parade, but the reviewing stand was crowded with officers of the United Societies and their guests. FREIGHT CLERK HURT. Harold Grace, a member of the clercial force at the local = {freight hLouse, is suffering with an injury to one of his feet, which occurred when a heavy casting fell and crushed his great toe. Mr. Grace was to have ieft Saturday or a two weeks' vaca- tion but it is thought his injury will | incapacitate . him much longer. He is under the care of Dr. Edward Grace.

IS LAID. Services Held for Consecrating Stone of New Church Edifice. ‘With impressive exercises, the cor- ner stone of the new church of the Ruthenian Catholics at the corner of Winter and Clark streets, was laid yesterday afternoon in the presence ot a large gathering of the members of the church and visiting clergymen. The services commenced at 3 o’clock and lasted several hours. A temporary altar was erected for the services containing the symbols of the church, and in front of it was the cornerstone suspended on a chain and ready for consecration. It is a handsomely polished stone, with the names of the pastor of the church and the architect engraved on it. There is an iron box inside the stone containing important history papers regarding the church and some rare old coins. Rt. Rev. Bishop Orest Chorniak of | bridgeport was in charge of the ser- | vices assisted by Rev. S. Wasczycan the pastor. The litany of the Greek church Wwas chanted steadily for two hours. At the close of the service {he stone was blessed by the bishop. The basement part of the church was built several years ago, during the pastorate of the Rev, Roman Zolitach. It is estimated that the completion of the new addition will cost abouty $19,000. WANT FIRE PROTECTION. Residents of Stanley Quarter, who feel the need of greater fire protec- tion than is now afforded them, con- template petitioning the city fathers for the construction of a fire house in the north part of the city. The site of the old Shipman school on Stanley street near the stone crush- er is regarded as being ideal for the | purpose and in view of the fact that it is city property it is argued that a considerable saving could be ef- fected. It is practically two miles from the center of the city out to this fast developing suburban section and the residents there feel that they should be considered in - this matter of fire protection when the es- timates are compiled for the coming year.

BREAD & 142 MAIN STREET NEW BRITAIN COUPLE SIBERIAN EXILES Abroad When War Broke Out, Were Taken Captive in First Great Russian Invasion. After a silence of more than 2 year, word has reached here that Mr. and Mrs, August Schultz of 115 Beaver street are in exile in Siberia and their relatives are in doubt and anxiety as to their safety. The couple are victims of the European war and fell captors of the first Russian in- vasion of German Poland. They came here from Cleveland with their two children early last year, but learn- ing that Mr, Schultz’'s mother had died, leaving him some property in Poland, they went abroad to present their claim and were planning to re- turn when the war broke out. The Russian arhy swept down upon the land like a host of destroying locusts and with thousands of others the couple . were taken into captivity and sent into the interior of Serbia. Now after.long months of anxicus waiting comes the news that they are prisoners of the Czar and in common with thousands of other innocent victims of the war are suf- fering all the horrors of Siberian exiles. The Russian government ap- parently is in no position to give these unfortunates the assistance they need even if it was so disposed- Finally a letter came through, di- rected to Mrs. Schultz’'s brother, Henry Fanska, who lives at 115 Beaver street, telling him of the aw- ful fate which has overtaken them. The war refugees are left to shift for themselves and many have starv- ed to death. Mrs. Schultz’s parents and the couple's two small children are living with the brother at the Beaver street address. HAS NOT SOLD STORE. S. P. Storrs, the Main street drug- gist states that a persistent rumor to the effect that he has sold his store has gained general circulation. He | wishes to deny this. ANGRY BRISTOLITES GET SPECIAL TRAIN Arrive in New Britain Late and Per- suade Crew to Run Berlin Dinky to the Bell City. New Britain was just turning over on its other side Saturday night for the second lap of its week-end sleep when one of those nice little trains from New Haven owned and oper- ated by the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad company crawled in—an hour late. Weary yawns were exchanged by the passen- gers as they slowly dismounted and headed for their respective homes. But home was a long way off for some of them, who lived in Bristol— | do they live or exist in Bristol?— and they were very much put out to learn that the last train had left ofr the Bell city. One woman knew her husband would never forgive her if she didn’t get home that night. Several males actually expressed fear that a warm wecome would be due them Sunday if they didn't return to their domiciles. Others had reasons just as good for getting home just as quickly as possible and among them they managed to convince the New York, New Haven and Hartford, or such portions thereof as were repre- sented by the train crew of the Berlin dinky that they were going tol get to Bristol if they had to call' Chairman Elliott out of bed. Afteg & great deal of argument the Bristol people succeeded in persuading the. crew of the Berlin dinky to open the throttle and take them home. BIG FREIGHT BUSINESS, Freight business is so heavy in the local yards and sidings that the rail- road company is contemplating put- ting on an extra night switching crew. Normally seventy-five cars are handled here daily but of late over 100 have been received.p Much complaint is made by merchaIfls over slow ar- tival of freight, claiming that weeks are noW required to get goods through where formerly it was a matter of days only.
