. - PRICE THREE CENTS, . GOURT URGES REGEIPTS FOR ~ TROLLEY FARES - Judge Curtis Declines to Consider Application for Injunction Against Con- neutiqut Company. Bridgeport, Sept. 28.—Judge How- ard J. Curtis in the superior court today refused to consider the appli- cation for an injunction made on be- half of the city of Bridgeport, by at- torney William H. Comley, Jr., to re- strain the Connecticut company from increasing its fares from 5 to 6 cents until such time as the question of its equity and justness‘is shown before the proper tribunal. Instead, the court suggested that the alternative incorporated in his ap- plication for the restralning order, that the company issue some sort of . receipts to the patrons to indemnify = them should the Public Utilities com- mission hold the increase unjustified, was the logical and reasonable way out of the difficulty. On this suggestion Attorneys Com- ley and Berry, the latter for the Con- necticut company, are conferring this , afternoon to see if an agreement can- not be reached as to what form this indemnity guarantee should take. Inability on the part of the city to give a proper indemnity bond to the court to safeguard the Connecticut company should the increase be sus- » tained by the utilities board was the reason for the court not considering seriously the temporary restraining order asked for by Attorney Conley.

Ashe’s bpdy, dressed in the uniform of the Irish Volunteers, lies in state in a Dublin hospital and there may be & public funeral on Sunday. It is said ., that other Sinn Fein leaders in the " hospital prison where Ashe died are in a dangerous condition. ‘McMeeny testified that the post mortem examination at which sever- al other doctors were present showed that Ashe did@ not die of hunger. The body was not emaciated and there was . ® an abundance of food in the stomach. ¥ Death, he said, was due to syncope, arising partly from heart trouble and partly from an intense congestion of the lungs.

Copenhagen, Sept. 28—Charges that ®ertain government authorities ‘are supporting the pan-German and con- servative forces in the agitation to re- verse the Reichstag majority peace resolution and commit Germany to the so-called Hindenburg peace may be made the subject of an interpellation at the present session of the Reichstag. Berlin papers which arrived tonight after a three day interruption indi- cate that the interpellation was dis- cussed at a meeting of the steering committee of the Reichstag on Wed- nesday. It was decided to postpone action in order to give the chancellor and his aides an opportunity to make certain explanations. ‘“This,” Philip Scheide- mann, the soclalist leader, explained, “‘would allow the committee to deter- mine the form which the interpella- , tion should take, but it will not head « oft a big debate on the subject.” Geo.

"AD00 APPEARS BEFORE BANKERS Expresses Confidence - in Over- I" Subscription in New Bonds PATRIOTISM IS FIRST e o Advises That Whole Country Should Now Be Able to Raisc $74,000,000,- 000 Through Government Loans at the Present Time. Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 28.—Vast over subscription of the three billion dollar second Liberty Loan was con- fidently predicted by Secretary Me- Adoo in an address here today before the American Bankers assoclation, calling upon bankers to give the same patriotic support to the new bond issue that they gave to the first. “It has been urged upon me,” said the secretary, ‘“that many men of wealth will refuse to buy the four per cent. bond with liability to in- come taxation. I should be loath to believe this, but if it is true, the posi- tion of the government must always be to offer a bond upon terms fair and equitable to all alike and which will make the widest possible appeal to all the people without regard to' the fact that a man may be rich or poor. It has been suggested to me that patriotism should play no part in the sale of government bonds. I do not concede this, although I believe the American people will buy these 4 per cent. government bonds on their merits. Patriotism is first, love of country above everything—above life {itself; second, love of country combined with that vital interest in the nation’s welfare and safety which will make secure the material inter- ests of each individual and promote his happiness and prosperity. “If this be true, the man of wealth, with patriotism or modified patriotism or without patriotism, has a greater stake in the security of the govern- ment than any other class, because if the government’s credit is destroyed and disaster comes upon country as it inevitably will if the government’s credit fails, what is property worth to the rich man? What is life worth to the free man?” Emphasizing the great financial task ahead of the nation Mr. McAdoo pointed out that it would be neces- sary to ralse between thirteen and fourteen billion dollars by additional bond {ssues before June 380, 1918, This will not be easy, he sald, but it can be done by everybody, banker, business man and men and women in every walk of life joining hands to see it through. “Fortunately,” he added, “the re- sources of America were never so ample for ourselves and so formid- able for our enemies as now. The combined resources of the national and state banks (including trust companies of the United States are oW, $87,000,000,000. At the outbreak of ‘the Civil war the combined re- sources of the banks were estimated to be 1,500,000,000, and yet with these limited banking resources the union government raised $3,000,000,- 000 by bond sales, or twice the amount of the banking resources of the country. Upon the same basis we should now be able to raise 74,000,- 000,000 through government loans. I am not suggesting that this may be done; I am only drawing a com- parison.” The secretary briefly reviewed the causes for America’s entry into the war, declaring this could not be done too often because of the efforts of noisy agitators and disloyal writers to confuse the issue. Much of this pro- paganda, he said, probably had been carried on with money left behind for ‘the purpose by Von Bernstorff, ‘“the adroit and malevolent German am- bassador.” ‘While it is true that America went to war to make liberty and democ- 'racy secure throughout the world, said Mr. McAdoo, it must be remem- bered that she entered also for a more immediate reason—the wanton disre- gard of American rights and ruthless destruction of American life and property. If the United States had acquiesced in the Kaiser's order that its shipping stay off the seas, he de- clared, $3,400,000,000 of American commerce with Great Britain, France and Italy would have been cut off and with ‘“one stroke of his pen the Kaiser would have accomplished more d.struction on our farms, in our fac- tories and In our mines than he would achieve with all the armies and navies of the German empire.” HIS LAST ORDER. Russian Newspapers Reprint Gen. Korniloff’s Demands on Army. Petrograd, Sept. 28.—The last army order issued by Gen. Xorniloff, re- printed in the Novaia Zhizn Korniloff was compelled to launch his revolt largely in an effort to thwart German plans. The order says it has been learned that German agents had brought about the great fire in Kazan, had expended millions of rubles in dis- organizing the coal mines in the Riv- er Don region and that the Germans were proposing a general offensive along the whole front for the purpose of forcing a disorganized Russian re- treat. They had also planned to blow up the bridges across the River Dnie- per and Volga and were organizing a vain attempt to set the debate for to- movement of maximilasts in Petro- grad, PRIEST 10 AID IN APPEALFOR PARDON Rev.

Society Votes Active Support. Although it is too early to make predictions concerning the success of the movement to secure a pardon for Miss Clara Briere, encouraging sup- port has been received from many quarters. Friends of Miss Briere were quick to approve of such action and others who have taken an interest in her predicament have communicated with the Herald offering their support. Rev. Patrick Daly, pastor of St. Joseph’s church, of which Miss Briere was a member, heartily approves of the movement and also spoke for Rev. J. Leo Sullivan, his assistant. “I know Miss Briere well and I can’t imagine what possessed her to do as she did,” Father Daily said today. “She was a good girl and a good Catholic. She attended to her church duties regularly and I will certainly do all in my power to aid in securing her pardon. I know Father Sullivan feels the same way about it and will help in any way possible.” At a meeting last night of St. Marys’ Ladies’ T. A. B. society, of which Miss Briere was a member, the petition for a pardon was discussed and it was unanimously voted to support the movement. The members were will- ing to sign a petition individually or as a soclety as all expressed deep sym- pathy for the girl. Mayor George A. Quigley did not hesitate a minute when asked today what his attitude was. “I shall cer- tainly sign a petition for Miss Briere's pardon,” said the mayor.

Atlantic City, Sept. 28.—Carl Vroo- man, assistant secretary of agricul- ture, addressing the ‘American Bank- ers association, today said if the war is to be won the United States not only will have to put an army in the trenches but will have to put several other armies in the fleld at home. “We shall have to have an army of food producers in the furrows,” he declared. “A women's army of food conservers, beating back the attacks of that world-old camp follower of war, famine, and a patriotic army of civillans in the business and political worlds, flghting against disloyal greed, unpatriotic partisanship, perverted personal ambition and economic trea- son to the public. ‘“Ten million of the flower of Amer- ican manhood by the selective draft have had their names written on the nation’s immortal roll of honor. “The nation calls today for an equal number of volunteers to fight in the business world and at the bal- lot box, to make the conduct of this war as clean and patriotic, as heroic and self-sacrificing in the business world at home ag it is in the trenches of France and Flanders.” " In urging increased food produc- tion, Mr. Vrooman declared we are face to face with famine, ‘“not as a people, on the contrary, but as one of a sisterhood of nations. we are not ourselves starving but millions of our fellow men are.” NO NAMES TODAY.

The state board of health has re- fused to release Dr. T. Eben Reeks from his contract to serve as state epidemiologist in order that New Britain may retain his services as superintendent of health and he will relinquish his office in city hall to- morrow night. Following a month’s vacation Dr. Reeks will assume his new duties as a state official on No- vember 1. Despite the concerted pleas of Mayor George A. Quigley and other prominent New Britain men, as well as Dr. Reeks himself, asking that he be released from his contract with the state to devote his energies to a further work with the health depart- ment in this city, the state board of health has seen fit to turn a deaf ear to all such requests and has refused to acquisce. Yesterday Dr. Reeks visited Dr. J. L. Black, health com- missioner, at the capitol in Hartford and outlined his position clearly. Oth- er members of the state board of health were called into the consulta- tion and all agreed that the services of Dr. Reeks to the state are needed more than are his services to New Britain. While the health commis- sioners appreciated Dr. Reeks’ pub- lic spiritedness in being willing and anxious to sacrifice this greater op- portunity in order to devote more time to the upbuilding of the health department in his adopted city, they nevertheless felt that Connecticut needs his services more. Dr. Reeks explained that owing to the charter provisions which exclude any man from assuming the position of super- intendent of health who has not had at least two years’ practice as an at- tending physician it is practically im- possible for New Britain to obtain a .successor. HEven this obstacle was surmounted by the state officials. May Get Harvard Man. Dr. Brown, a member of the board, who is at present reorganizing the Bridgeport health department, sald that this difficulty could be overcome. He said that New Britain’s best in- terests would lie in securing a highly trained man from out of town, since no local dactor is prepared to handile the job. Dr. Brown, who is familiar with this work, said that such a man could be secured at the Harvard Dr. physicians and others who wish to take up public health wark take a speclal applied course and graduate with a degree of public health doctor. Dr. Brown declared that a man with two years’ practice as a medical man and also a graduate of this school could be secured. He even offered to go with Dr. Reeks to Harvard College and there select a man for New Britain, and it is likely that the local health baard will see fit to adopt this sugges- tion, since it is now assured that Dr. Reeks is to leave. Regarding the sal- ary paid the local superintendent of health, Dr. Brown said he felt sure that a capable man could be secured from Harvard at this salary. He thought that such a man could be secured to eome here for a year or two at least to continue the present ef- ficient health department organizatian and apply new theories and practice to the department. The members of the state hoard of health explained to Dr. Recks that the nature of his new work is such that he will be doing the state a greater service than by staying in New Brit- ain. However, they exphained that while they did not feel that they could rclease him from his contract, never- theless there were no chains on him and he could refuse ta accept the po- sition if he saw fit. Such actlon, of course, would be impossible for a man i of Dr. Reeks' integrity and honor, and the state he will do so, now that he has been assured that he cannot be ex- cused. Dr. Reeks’ New Work. In speaking of leaving his work in New Britain Dr. Reeks said: “I re- gret exceedingly that the state can- not see its way clear to release me, inasmuch as the city has been un- able to obtain a man to succeed me.” Although he will sever his connec- tions with the health department to- morrow night, Dr. Reeks has very generously agreéd to give up part of | his vacation period and assist fur- | ther in health department work should the local board feel that it requires his services. The new position which Dr. Reeks will assume on November 1 is in re- ality director of communicable dis- eases. For instance, at present there is an epidemic of typhoid fever at i the state hospital for the insane at Norwich.

Norton Have Encounter in Washington THEN ARE SEPARATED Leaders Prepare for Action and Hef- lin Dares Norton, Author in Inquiry Resolution, to Vote to Oust From Congress. ‘Washington, Sept. 28.—After® a heated session today, the house rules committee refused to act on resolu- tlons proposing congressional inves- tigation of Rep. Heflin's charges that a number of members of congress “had acted suspiciously,” about the time Count von Bernstorff asked his government for authority to spend $50,000 to influence congress on the submarine warfare issue. The row in the house over Rep. Heflin's charges culminated today in a fight between Heflin and Rep. Nor- ton, his chief critic. Friends soon separated them. The rules committee yesterday held a sensational hearing on Heflin's charges, which are to the effect that the German fund had been success- fully used on 13 or 14 members of congress. He named four men, and stated that he was ready at any time to have an impartial representation on a committee of investigation. Members who were about to leave the city on weck-end trips cancelled their engagements and determined to stay in Washington when it was made plain to them that the Heflin charge might produce many interesting possi- bilities. If the rules committee does not order an investigation the House will surely take the matter into its own hands. Mr. Heflin appeared before the rules committee and mentioned the names of members of Congress whom he connected with suspicious legisla- tion, and said he would like to have a thorough investigation of the orga- nizations which had endorsed certain bills of Senator La Follette, Represen- tative Mason of Illinois, Representative Britten of Illinois and Representative Baer of North Dakota. ‘When Representative Britten learned of this he dictated and dis- tributed a formal statement charging Representative Heflln with being “‘a pacifist of the lowest order,”” and be- ing largely respansible ‘‘for the coun- try's unpreparedness.” Meantime the whips of both sides of the House have sent out hurry calls for all hands to comc to Washington on ‘“‘important busine: Majority Leader Kitchin told members they had better stay on hand, because something was likely to happen. These and others recall that when Represen- tative Heflin vated against the war resolution he endeavored to ‘get *‘he House to drop Kitchin as floor leader and that Representative Burnett of Alabama, a colleague of Heflin, took the floor to denounce Heflin for his utterances. This is only an indica- tion of the bitterness now flavoring the undercurrent in the House. “I am willing to give names before a committee,” saild Mr. Heflin. He saild he believed he could get the aid of the secret service and charged that certain members would like to get him out of the way before the hearings started. He turned to Rep- resentative Norton, saying: “You are not the only one who would like to see me out of the way. I will have something to say about you before an investigation is made.” The Alabaman charged that two local newspapers misstated facts when they said the President had de- plored the Heflin speech. “They published these lies yester- day and used the president to further their devilish purpose,” he shouted. Then turning to Representative Nor- ton, he added: “I dare you to vote for my expulsion.” Mr. Heflin con- tinued: “l want to ask about the Mason bill, the anti-draft bill. T want to ask members about-their correspondence; I want to find out how many are in draft in the next campaign, how many will support Representative Britten's bill to exempt German-Americans | from service. Let us see who has fur- nished the postage stamps required by the pro-German forces. I want to know who is in the organization championed by La Follette, the or- | ganization that would leave the president without an army. I want you to name a committee to investigate this von Bernstorff message. I will name the men and leave it to their constituents to say whether or not I am right.” Representative Campbell of Kansas asked him: “Don’t their constituents know now | how they stana?” i “Some men talk one way to one set of constituents and another way to an« other set,” answered Mr. Heflin. He then turned his attention to Representative Baer, the newly elect- ed member from North Dakota: “They say he was elected by men who repudiated the war. If there are any others preparing to join ‘hem, let us have their names.” Representative Hefiin reverted to { the Britten bill again, the measure to exempt German-Americans from serving abroad. He sald he wanted {to know who had circulated the printed matter about that measure, He also demanded to know who had spent “hundreds of thousands of dol- (Continued On Fifteenth Iage), | Him | a secret compact to fight the selective | TROPICAL HURRIGANE NEAR NEW l]RLEANS' ‘People Leave Homes and\ Seek Shelter in Offices.
