Machine Hit of Bridge Over Little River on Road—Dead Man’s Chest Is Orushed and Back Broken. Middletown, July 27.—Edward S. Murphy, a dentist, was killed, and Miss Marion Murray, a trained nurse, s dying at the Middlesex hospital to- day as the outcome of an automobile accident on the Cromwell road. Jo- seph M. Farr, who was driving the car, is very seriously hurt, and Mrs. Rose H. Murray, mother of Miss Ma- rion, and in charge of the nurses’ di- rectory here, Mrs. Elizabeth Deforest @nd her mother, Mrs. J. M. Logan, are more or less injured. ‘The machine in which the party was riding was in collision with the abut- ment and guard rail on Little River bridge on the Cromwell road. The party had been spending last evening at the home of Mrs. Murray in South Farms, and Miss Marion Murray was being brought back to her place at she Cromwell Hall sanitarium. They ¢ ‘came through Main street, this city, . ystopping at the saloon of Farr. They M . then proceeded and, according to re- =% port, the machine was making high speed. Upon approaching the bridge, Farr swung to the left side of the road to take the curve. The left for- ward wheel struck a brownstone abut- ment., The force of compact is shown %y the fact that this stope, weighing a ton, was jarred from' its postion , about nine inches. The wheel ran along the top of a. stone coping, two feet high, until it struck the post of the wooden guard .~ .oxalk ,This MW% t mpenetrated the machine at the radiat- " “or, passing through it lengthwise and Tipping out both seats on the left side. The car skidded and stopped 50 feet further on, at the edge of the embankment with only a mound of earth to prevent it from falling into the river. i Murphy was on the left side of the rear seat and evidently first struck by the timber, for his chest was crushed and his back broken in two places. Death was immediate. Miss Murray was struck a glancing blow by the timber and thrown out of /fhe car, being found in the middle of the bridge roadway. She ha# a broken leg and fractured skull, among other injuries. Farr was not struck by the timber, but was thrown out, receiving a broken leg and arm. The other oc- cupants, being on the right side of the seats, escaped the full force of the ' blow, and their injuries are mostly bruises and lacerations accompanied by shock. Farr is at the hospital. Davis is making an inquiry. Farr was arrested for speeding in Cromwell earlier in the year and was fined $25 and costs by Justice Noble. His drivers’ Jlicense was restored by the automo- bile commissioner two weeks ago.

Shanghai, China, July 27.—A cor- respondent of the North China Daily News reports that serious fighting has broken out again at Cheng-Tu, cap- ital of the province of Sze-Chuen, where Kwei-Chow and Yun-Nan troops have resumed their contest for mastery of the province.

McMil- lan, the Artic explorer who has been in the Polar country for the past four Yyears, expects to return home by Sep- tember 15 next, according to a letter to .P. F. Parker of this city, manager of his personal affairs, made public today. The letter was dated at Etah on November 6, last year, and is believed to be the first direct word from Mc- Millan this year, although advices have been received indirectly. “If our re- lief ship does not fail us a third time,” the explorer writes, “I should reach home about September 15, 1917. “Al- though I have had, or will have had, four years in the Artic yet I am not a bit tired of it, and have planned for further work. “As you know, we failed to find Crocker Land. I am sorrry for Peary, who was, without doubt, sincere in his belief that it lay some 120 miles due northwest of Cape Thomas. We went 161 miles to make sure and then were rewarded with nothing but a clear horizon. Last year I reached my objective point, King Christian Land, the Fin- lay Land of some 60 years ago, which has never been visited, as far as I know. Returning, I headed for North Cornwall, which also has never been explored. En route six new islands were discovered and many miles of coast line mapped. Incidentally we picked up about 50 musk oxen and 20 polar bears. Am now planning an- other long trip in the spring, which when completed, will net me about 8,000 miles of dog team work. “We have enough food for the year such as it is . Our supples consisted largely of beans, salt beef, dry vege- tables, whole wheat biscuit and pem- mican. Walrus and seal meat are in cache and hare on the hills. The ducks and dovekies wll be back in May and then we shall be in the land ty again.’* . VOTES $300,000 FOR ASIA MINOR RELIEF R?

The American commission is the only organizaton aside from the Turkish Red Cross permitted to administer re- lief in many-portions of the Turkish empire. WILL NOT SUCCEED ZIMMERMAN Berlin, July 25, via London, July 27.—Dr. W. S. Solf, the colonial sec- retary, in a communication to friends in Hamburg denies a rumor that he is contemplating acceptance of a for- eign office appointment. He states that he will continue to serve in his present capacity as he is thoroughly convinced of the future of the Ger- y man colonies. JAILS YAWN FOR “REDS” Berkman, Kramer and Becker to Be Re-arrested If Freed on Bail Pend- ing Appeal on Anti-Draft Case.

London, July 27.—Fresh and violent fighting occurred in the 'streets of Petrograd in the last two days, accord- ing to a despatch from Petroggrad to the Copenhagen Bedlingske Tidende, transmitted by the Exchange Tele- graph company yesterday. The ex- treme socialists organized a great re- volt,. the despatch adds, but the gov- ernment troops interfered and the riot was completely suppressed after lively fighting. No details were received. Kerensky Calls People’s Council, Petragrad, July 27.—The extreme gravity of the country’s position on the front and rear impells Premier Keren- sky to take the exceptional decision, without walting for the constituent as- sembly, to convoke July 31 at Moscow. the “Extraordinary national council.”” All members of the Duma parliament men from chief centers of the em- pire, representatives of the Zemstvos, municipalities, labor unions and uni- versities will participate. The council will hold two sessions, at which the government will be asked to make an exhaustive report on the condition of the country, answer ques- should he be granted his freedom, he | would fmmediately be re-arrested on | tions and ask opinions of the authori- tative persons on how best to save the fatherland from ruin. Explaining the scheme today, Pre- mier Kerensky declared that attempts to move the. revolution backwards were impossible. *‘Canspiracies to re- turn the former monarchy to power," he declared, ‘“will be suppressed in the most decided way.” As ap indication of the new policy. Kronstadt received an ultimatum to hand over three of the chief Bolshe- viki agitators, including the notorious Roschal. In case of a refusal the island will be declared blockaded. The evening newspapers declare the position on the front is some- what improved. As the evacuation of Tarnopol is considered to have been premature Russian generals have been ordered to recapture. the town. y Cavalrymen and Gunners Heroes. Accounts of the battles ‘in 'Gal which have reached here say the alrymen fought like heroes, Cossacks helping Russian and British’® motor cars, defended the Sereth line as long as hope remained. It is report- ed that artillerymen on their knees implored the infantry to save their guns, but that the infantry did not heed them. i General Korniloff’s orders to shoot traitors and marauders are being carried out. The commander of a grenadier division has been removed for refusing to fire on deserters. The fifth cyclist battalion fought bravely. It kept off three German regiments with its machine guns and carbines and made several bayonet charges afoot. In one attack the men rode their bicycles. Some sec- tions of the battalions lost 80 per cent. of their forces. A member of the Duma, who has returned from the Dvinsk front, state that after Russian shock battalions had captured very important German position it was discovered in several instances that signalling to the Ger- mans was going on from the Russ rear. Belgian artillerymen and mechan- ical experts in Petrograd, many of whom were wounded on the Yser or at Ypres, are forming a ‘‘battalion of death™ to give an exalple of military valor on the Russian front. Soldiers Lose Ground Politically. Washington, July 27.—The Russian military reverses have enormously strengthened the hands of the gov- ernment in Petrograd, according to i a dispatch from Ambassador Francis today to the state department. They have shown the impossibility of con- trol of the army by soldiers’ com- mittees, the ambassador reports, and have led to a universal demand for stronger discipline. “SHOOT T0 KILL’—BELL Commander of American Troops at Border Takes Drastic Action by Mexicans. 11 George here has Bravo that Paso, July —Brig.

VIGE CRUSADE NET |WAR BOARD FIGHT Ten Men and Women Arrested by Police in Raids TWO HOUSES VISITED Judge Believes Woman in Elm Street House Was Imported from New York—Married Woman Taken in Park Street Raid. A successful campaign agalnst vice was conducted by raiding parties of the police force last night, the police- men being successful at all points. Two houses were visited and ten pris- oners captured. = A rald was made at 215 Elm street, where six prisoners were captured. Of the six taken, Mary Naro was charged with keeping a house of ill fame and the following were charged with frequenting: Bruno Borgo, Jo- seph Farondo, Frank Gungumeri, Jo- seph Hatargo and Dominic Bruzakic. The police are convinced that it is the place where the plot to relieve John Spagno of his $250 and wife was hatched, and that the prisoners cap- tured are a bad lot who came from New York for the express purpose of perpertrating crime in this city. For the offense charged against them Mary Naro was sentenced to two months in jail; Joseph Farondo, three months in Jail, and the rest of the prisoners one month in jail each. Man Who Lost $250 Gives Tip. John Spagno, who recently com- plained to the police that his wife of three days ran away taking $250 with her, was the first witness in the case. The police admit that information gathered from hm in the investiga- tion of the case of his missing wife gave them the clue that led to last night’s capture. Spagno said that he lives on North street and has been in the city for three years. He testified that he had known Mary Naro for the past two weeks and had been to her home on Elm street three times within that time. He had seen other men and women at the house and pointed out some of the men in the dock. Detective Sergeant Samuel Bam- forth testified that he received a complaint about the house run by Mary last Saturday and since that time had received two more com- plaints. Last night In company with Detéctive Richardson and other po- lce officers he went to the house and in a three-room tenement in the base- ‘mént’ found ‘Mary and the five men. Two of the men were asleep across the foot of a bed and the rest of the party were sitting in the Kitchen. Sergeant Bamforth said that Mary told him that she came from New York and has been here one month. She said the men were her boarders as she was keeping a boarding house because her husband is fighting in the Italian army. Italian residents protest that this cannot be true, how- ever, as the TItalian government would provide' for her in that case. Detective Richardson and Police-| man William Strolls also testified that they had received complaints from citizens against the house. Mrs. Naro was then called to the witness stand by Lawyer A. A. Green- berg, who defended all those in the case. She said that she has lived on Elm street for a month and that four of the men arrested were her board- ers and paid her $6.00 a week. She denied that she knew Spagno and said that his testimony was all lies. Al- though the police had testified that there were but two beds in the house she said there were three. In re- gard to Bruno Borgo, she said he lived on Bigelow street and was vis- iting one of her boarders at the time of his arrest, although he was found (Continued on Ninth Page) THE PENDULUM SWINGS BACK With the third yvear of the war coming to a close, the star of the Entente Allies is in the ascendancy.

House Republicans Decide Not to Oppose _President’s Wishes THROW OVER LEADER MANN| Congress Recesses While Conferees | consider Food Control Bill—Passage | of Prohibition Amendment by Small } Margin Believed Probable. Washingten,: July 27.—Work on the food control bill was continued today by the conference committee while senate and house were in recess await- ing the conferees' report. An agree- ment may be reached by tonight, ac- cording to some of the conferees. An over-night development which gave hope of having the Dbill per- fected and in President Wilson’s hands next week was the action of house re- publicans, meeting informally, in agreeing to abandon the proposed fight, led by Minority Leader Mann, for the creation of a joint congres- sional committee on war expenditures, which is opposed by the president. The senate may vet fight for its pro- posal. The conferees are pledged not to discuss their deliberations. Prohibitionist leaders in the senate today undertook the task of lining up their forces for the vote next Wednes- day on Senator Shephard’s resolution for a national prohibition amendment to the constitution. By agreement, reached last night, the senate will begin consideration of the resolution Monday. Its adoption by a’narrow margin is laoked for. A ‘two-thirds vote of the members present in the senate and the house is necessary to adoption. It would then have to be approved by three-fourths of all the states in order to be eifective. Rivers and Harbors Bill Passed. . The $27,000,000 rivers and harbors bill on its way today to conference, following its passage yesterday by the senate, by a vote of 50 to 11. It passed the house just one manth ago. The conferees will seek to reach an agreement on points in dispute in- cluding senate amendments authoriz- ing government acquisition of the Cape Cod Canal and proviling for a federal waterways commission of seven members. Both senate and house voted in a pravision ' for at- quisition of the Chesapeake and Dela-~ ‘ware canal. The bill was under consideratioon in the senate for four days, during which it was the target for almost constant attack by opponents. All attempts to cut down the total carried in the bill were ineffectual, however. What part of the war budget, which may reach $10,000,000,000, will be raised by taxation and on what com- modities the levies will fall, were con- sidered at a meeting today of the senate finance committee, which is re- vising the war tax bill. The sentiment of the committee is apparently towards obtaining the bulk of the increase from taxes on incomes and war excess profits. GUARDSM HELD FOR DEATH. Member of Chicopee Militia Arrested for Manslaughter. Springfleld, Mass., July 27—Michael Griffin, a National Guardsman, was arrested today charged with man- slaughter in causing the death of Frank Williams, a civilian, who died | vesterday of injuries a few days ago when, it is alleged, he was assaulted by Griffin after a dispute on a trolley car. Griffin, whose home is in Chic- opee, will be arraigned there. JESSE JAMES UP T0 DATE Ansonia Youths Take Pot Shots at En- gine Crew and Passcngers n Trol- ley Cars—One Had Bowie Knife. Seymour, July 27—After firing at passenger train No. 126 over the New Haven railroad, this forenoon, and then taking shots at a passing trolley car, Redvers Bowen, aged 18, of 416 North Main street, Ansonia, and The- dore Jakob of 419 of the same street were arrested between Ansonia and Seymour by Lieutenant Albano of Derby. and Sergeant Mahoney of An- sonia. The reports of pot shots being sent at the train seemed to indicate an attempt to hold up the train which runs from Devon to Winsted by Wa- terbury and is due at the latter place at 9:20. On Friday once in a while a pay car has been attached. On ar- rival here the train engineer told Ticket Agent Lancour that half a mile below the Seymour station two men had stepped out from a clump of bushes and fired at the engine. The fireman had a slight bullet wound and the engineer had felt a bullet graze his side. Lancour telephoned to the Ausonia police. Derby was asked Lo aid and search for the sup- hold-up men who started. Later word came that two lads had been shooting at a trolley car be- tween Seymour and Ansonia and that a man on the car had had a bullet through his straw hat By working from both ends the police were able to pick up the two youths and bring them to the Seymour police station. The police say the prisoners admitted the shooting. One of them was im- pudent when question. Both had air rifler. Bowen had a revolver and a bowie knife as well ESTABLISHED 187 NEIGHBORS OBJECT T0 ERECTION OF GARAGE Chestnut and Fairview Street People Sign Remon- strance. Residents in the vicinity of ' the corner of Chestnut and Fairview streets are highly indignant over the proposed construction of a two-story garage building on the northwestern corner of these two thoroughfares and as a starter in their fight to pre- vent its erection about 25 of the residents have signed a ‘“round robin” protesting to Building Inspector Ar- thur N. Rutherford against the is- suance of a permit. The building in- spector, beyond admitting that he had received the written and signed re- monstrance, as well as several verbal complaints, declined to comment on the situation. He did state however, that as yet no one has applied for a permit to build a garage at this place. The remonstrating residents claim that the erection of a garage or any other business block at the corner of Chestnut and Fairview streets is ‘“‘detriment to a strictly residential locality.” The property in question is owned by John Kunz and, the remon- strants claim, he has made known his intentions of erecting a garage cap- able of accommodating a dozen cars. Already Mr. Kunz has expended sev- eral hundred dollars, it is said, ex- cavating for the building. According to the residents who profess to have been acquainted with Mr. Kunz's plans, the garage 1s to be so con- structed that entrance can be made to the second floor at grade, as well as on the first floor. This is possible be- cause of the hilly condition of the property. Although Building Inspector Ru- therford declines to state whether he will grant a permit, in case one is sought, opinion of certain city offi- ‘clals is that the inspector may not be able to do otherwise in case the CALL FOR EXAMINATION OF ELIGIBLE MEN NEXT WEEK Exemption Boards Master Draft Sheets Muster.

The first district, first, third plans and specifications meet with all building ordinance requirements. He has, however, the privilege of holding up any applications for a period of two ‘weeks. ' A lawyer, who was con- sulted on the matter by one of the remonstrants, is said to have agreed that the building inspector may not be able to hold up the issuance of 2 permit and if the residents object to the garage they may have to seek redress through the civil courts, pos- sibly by seeking an injunction. Indications are that this proposed garage will cause considerable of a neighborhood stir before the matter is finally adjusted. LEAGUE OF HUMANITY HEAD CALLED TRAITOR Danicl H. Wallace, League Leader of Conscientious Objecto! Arrest- ed in West for High Treason. Davenport, July — Daniel H. Wallace, one of the organizers in Chi- cago recently of the “League of Hu- manity,” composed of men and wom- en who styled themselves as conscien- tious objectors to war, was arrested here early today by Deputy United States marshals on a charge of high treason.

He claims to have been a mem- ber of the Texas Rangers, a sergeant in the Coldstream Guards, and to have more recently belonged to the Eighth Australian light horse.
