New York, Sept. 19.—A contest be- tween Governor Whitman and Sam- uel Seabury, the democratic candidate for nomination for governor, to obtain the progressive nomination for that of- fice was the most interesting feature of @ the New York state primaries today. It was not expected that more than 20,000 of the 46,000 enrolled progres- sives'would take part in the primaries. Both candidates asserted that they would win the progressive nomina- tion. ‘Governor Whitman’s friends assert- ed he undoubtedly would win the re- publican nomination over State Sen- ¥4 ator William M. Bennett by a large majority. Mr. Seabury’s candidacy for the democratic nomination was unop- posed. The names of both Seabury and Whitman appeared as candidates for the independence league nomina- tion. Another contest of importance was that of Robert Bacon, formerly Un'‘te 1 Btates ambassador to France, and W William M. Calder, a former congress- man, for the republican nomination for the United States senate. Mr. Bacon was supported by Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, who based his at- titude upon Mr. Bacon's support of universal military service. The candidates for the democratic nomination for senator are former Lieut. Governor Thomas F. Conway & png Willlam F. McCombs, formerly chairman of the democratic national committee. The polls opened at 3 p. m. and re- main open until 9. Wilson to Resume Campaign Work. Washington, Sept. 19.—President ‘Wilson passed through here early to- day enroute to Long Branch, N. J., from Columbia, S. C.,, where he at- tended the funeral of his sister, Mrs. Annie E. Howe, yesterday. The train was due to arrive at 2:30 this after- noon at West End, N. J., two miles from Shadow Lawn. President Wilson expects to plunge actively into campaign plans tomor- row and to be buslly engaged until election day. Later this week he will see Chairman McCormick of the dem- ocratic national committee and with him map out a program of receptions to delegations at Shadow Lawn and short speechmaking trips. His first speech away from Long Branch will be at Baltimore next Monday. Satur- day he will speak to at least two dele- gations at Shadow Lawn. From now on Mr. Wilson plans to make up for lost time and meet the criticisms of Charles E. Hughes, the republican presidential candidate, with attacks of his own. Outside of his speech of acceptance he has done no campaigning up to the present. He has mapped out several' points he wants to discuss, including the settle- ment of the threatened railroad strike, the legislative record of the admin- Istration, the Mexican problem and European questions, the record of the republican party and subjects affect- Ing progressiv >~ Fairbanks in Charge at Hughes Rally.

Another case of infantile is, the seventh in this city during the present outbreak of the disease, was reported to the health department this morning. The patient is Julius Hoope of 345 Myrtle street, a thre vear-old child. The youngster, ac- | cording to information given out by the board of health has been ill near- ly a month, but received no medical attention until yesterday when his condition alarmed the parents. Like all other cases in this ci the child is suffering from paral of the leg, the left limb being affected. There are five other children in the family. Owing to the fact that the isolation hospital is full the victim remains quarantined at home. From informa- tion gained from the health depart- ment it was learned that the parents did not take kindly to the establish- ment of a quarantine and practically defied the health authorities to put it into effect. Chester, Sept. 19.—George C. Em- mons, 61 years of age, well known throughout Middlesex county has been stricken with infantile paralysis. His condition is very grave. New York, Sept. 19.—Thirty-five new cases of infantile paralysis, an in- crease of twenty over yesterday's re- port, was shown in the department of health bulletin issued for the twenty- four hours ending at 10 a. m., today. There were ten deaths, an increase of four, Boston, Sept. 19.—The greatest spread of infantile paralysis since the disease became epidemic in this state was reported to the department of health today Thirty-nine cases de- veloped in the past twenty-four hours, as compared with forty in the pre- vious forty-eight hours.

Black, secretary of the state board of health, said today he thought the epidemic was waning. STRIKE AT GAS HOUSE Men Want More Pay- Plant Against Imergencies—But Nothing Serious Develops. About a half dozen employes on the day and night shift at the New Brit- ain Gas Light company plant at the junction of Pine and Meadow streets are on strike for more pay and be- cause the striekrs live in the immed- fate vicinity of the works and be- cause the strikers live in the immed- the surroundings several policemen are sent to the gas works each night to guard against emergenctes. It is sald that the men on strike are seeking more pay. It is reported that they were formerly received $2.50 per day and demanded $2.75, which they received. Not satisfied with this increase they continued their de- mands for increases at the rate of twenty-five cents per day until they receive $3.60. It was when $4 was de- manded that the company balked, it is said. There has been no signs of vio- lence at the plant, and the strike in no way handicaps the company. Although ten hours constitutes a working day for these employes, those who work there state that in actual labor they work only three hours and twenty minutes per day, and the rest of the time they spend in watching the retorts and seeing that all works well. The time they do work, however, they have to work hard and in intense heat, filling the big retorts with coal. AIR HJERO MISSING. Yost After Bringing Down Sixth Ger- man Machine. Paris, Sept. 19, 5:10 a. m.—Flight Lieut. De Richefort, who brought down his sixth German machine on saturday, has been posted as missing.

Ad- jutant Tarasoon’s artificlal leg was emashed by a shell splinter during | one of his latest daring flights. -OPEN ARMS PLANT. Island Arsenal Will Give Work to 800 Men.

BEARDSLEY MAY BE HOLGOMB'S RIVAL His Is Only Name Mentioned by Pre-Convention Gossips CUMMINGS FOR SENATOR Few Contests For Office, Expeeted at Democratic State Convention in New Haven—Delegates Slow to Arrive on Scene. New Haven, Sept. 19.—The demo- cratic state convention for the mnom- ination of a party ticket will open in Music hall tonight. It will seem quite natural for the delegates to be in this hall, which many times has sheltered democratic gatherings and in which there have been many lively and in- tensely interesting scenes. Unlike some of the previous conventions that which be held tonight and tomorrow prom- ises to be quiet. Details of the con- vention’s work have been mapped out. A dcparture from the program hardly expected. There 1 be or two oflices on the state ticket Wwhich there will be a contest, but ad- vance opinion of aelegates scemed 10 be that a name for each place already has been acceptably mentioned. The congressional district or county dele- gations will have opportunity to br forth names for | dential elector and these probably will be the only ones upon the ticket which will uct be known in advance. Cummigs and Beardsley. For United States senator the choice of National Committeeman Homer Cummings of Stamford expected, and no other name was mentioned today for governor than that of Mor- ris B. Beardsley of Bridgepor! The delegates to the convention to- day were slow in arriving. 'With few contests in sight there seemed be no need of much canvassing in ad- vance. It seemed unlikeiy that many delegates would be here until late in the day. The state central commit- tee will meat at 4 p. m., to pass upon the temporary roll of declegates pre- pared by Secretary P. B. O'Sullivan of Derby. Apparently there are no contested delegations. is one over to Reilly to Dcliver Keynote Speech. A number of the senatorial district conventions have named members on various conyention committees In- cluding that on resolutions. In this connection it that the convention sted rule that the res up by a committee the nomine held Jater, instead of having the conven- tion resolutions committee bring in a platform for the convention to adopt. A new state central commit- tee is to be chosen and in several tricts there are contests which will probably be settled tonight after ad- journment of the first session over which former Congressman Thomas L. Reilly of Meriden will be tem- porary chairman. He will deliver the keynate speech. Upon selection of Mr. Cummings as candidate for United States senator tomorrow, which is expected, it is planned to extend him an invitation to address the convention in arder that he may give the delegates a gen- eral review of political conditions throughout the country gleaned from his activities at national headquar- ters as vice chairman of the national committee. Many delegates who favored this asserted that such a gpeech from Mr. Cummings would probably prove the most striking in- cicent of the entire convention. Announcement is made,that demo- cratic state headquarters have been cpened in Hotel Taft here, and State Chairman David E. Fitegerald, who lest night retired as New Haven town chairman, will devote practically all his time to the campaign until elec- tion. George C. Waldo, Jr., of Bridge- port, will be publicity man for head- auarters and a speakers’ bureau will be opened at once, In the early afternoon gates from remoter state had appeared at headquarters. It was known definitely that conferences had further outlined the program. Mr. Beardsley’s name will be presented by C. 8. Canfield of Bridgeport, and prob- ably former Governor RBaldwin will present Mr. Cummings name. Landers Willing to Run. George M. Landers of New Britain said that if it would help the ticket he would gladly stand as a candidate for nomination to the state senate.

CAMP NEARS HIS 96TH BIRTHDAY New Britain’s Grand Old Man Hale and Hearty in Spite of Years. On October 3, Professor David Camp, New Britain's grand old will pass his 96th milestone. sor Camp is enjoying remarkably good health for a man nearing century mark and is probably N. man, Profes the DAVID N, MP. oldest resident of the city. He was born in Durham, this state, on Octo- ber 3, 1820; and is dant of Samuel Camp, one of the founders of Milford. In his youth Professor Camp, owing to ill health, was unable to attend public schools and studied with private tutors and received the degree of A. M. from Yale in 1853. For many years Professor Camp was one of the foremost educator state and in 1850 came to New Britain to take charge of the newly opened State Normal school. bout 1865 while touring Europe he was appoint- cd as a professor of St. John's college at Annapolis and did not return to Connecticut until 1868. In 1880 Pro- fessor Camp gave up teaching. During his lifetime in this city Mr. Camp has been very dctive in busine: lite, retiring from active work only a year ago, when he resigned the pr idency of the Skinner Chuck compang. He has served in the common council mayor from 1877 to 1879.

New Haven, Sept. 19.—A number of progressive party members met here today to discuss political condi- tions as they relate to their party, to choose a state chairman to fill the vacancy which came about by the resignation of Joseph W. Alsop, of Avon, to elect a treasurer, and to plan for the campaign. The call was is- sued by J. B. Smith, of Orange. The number of members who had re- sponded at noon was not large. Mo of them were men who took promi- nent part in the progressive cam- { paigns of 1912 and 1914 in Connecti- cut. F. M. C . who had charge of the progressive state headquarters in Hartford four rs ago, looked in upon the gathering. The progr ives sat down to lunch about 1 o’clock and later they were to meet to discuss party affair member: id they did not any su a ticket in the field, or to come out for endorsement of any candidate any other party. The main idea would be to continue the organization against a day when it might be need- ed. As to endorsement of any candi- date of the democratic or republi- believe they felt it to be wisdom to adher to the sentiment of the Indianapolis conference which was to let every pro- sressive use his own judgment this fall. It was declared that an at- tempt to endorse President Wilson would be opposed. this declaration claimed that progres- sives who had swung to probably would not be at the meeting. Mr. Colby was to address the meet- ing after the luncheon. AN WAR LOA NEW RUSS Three Billion Rubles Is Amount, Says Despateh from Petrograd.

This is the longest list turned over to the police prosecutor and was done only after careful de- liberation and the conclusion reached | after due warning that the delinquents have mno intention of meeting their obligations to the state.

To issue 500 war- rants in one day and demand that | the delinquents be at once haled into | court would be an unwise and utterly foolish proceeding, so the above policy has been decided upon by the pros cuting attorney. That the list includes a number of well-to-do and prominent citizens is believed to be a fact.
