NO AUTO CAMP SITE ON-GARLTON 3. Cbamber of Commerce Bows to Opposition of Residents Although the board of public works 'was requested by the Chamber of Commerce to grade Carlton street to the proposed site of the automo- bile tourists' camp, and the water board was asked to run a 500 foot extension of the water line, there seems a strong propability today that it New DBritain ever has an auto camp site it will not be located on Carlton street. Curtis L. Sheldon, chairman of the committee of Chamber of Commerce directors, who has been working on this proposition for some ttme, said this morning that in view of opposi- tion in that section the Carlton street site would go by default so far as he was concerned. Mr. Sheldon spoke of the advantage the camp site would be to the city but said it was not the function of the Chamber of Commerce to en- deavor to force upon people what they did not want and as long as there was sentiment opposed to it, he thought it better to let it drop so far as Carlton street is concerned. Miss Mary E. Curtin, secretary, expressed the opinion that another site would be recommended next win- ter. “It would bring a lot more business to the city, attraot more trade here, advertise ‘the city in the automobile blue book and benefit us in many ways,” said Miss Curtin, The Carlton street site was decid- ed upon by the chamber directors at a meeting held on the grounds at which Mayo¥ A. M. Paonessa was present. It was decided later to ask the board of public works to grade the street and to apply to the water | board for an extension of 500 feet| on the present water line. The board of public works has taken steps to have that street adopt- es as a public street and the matter is before the board of compensation now. It will make no difference in the board's plans, according to City “ngineer J. D. Willlams, whether the | camp is located there or not, since| the street was in line for considera- | tion and the present status is more or less a matter of routine. No extension to the water line was built by the water board but arrange- ments were made so that a faucet could Le put on the end of the line it the end of the street, rather than | to run the line into the proposed camp site.

The men were returning with the day's milk supply from the prison farm on Dannemora mountain. Ray- mond A. Fitzgerald of Saratoga Springs, prisoner chauffeur, sakd the truck had started down the hill when the brakes refused to work. He told the passengers to jump, he said, but they remained aboard.

Physicians from the prison ordered the injured men removed to the hospi- tal. State prison department officials are expected from Albany to m\esnga!ed the accident. FREED IN CRONKHITE DEATH.

S. in the supreme Commission. New York, July 10.—Senator Cur- tis (Kan,), republican whip, sald yes- terday that legislation along the lines | suggested by the United States coal commission in its report dealing with the anthracite situation, will be en- acted by the next Congress. He believes the recommendations, if made effective, will go far toward solving the coal problem and prevent its recurrence, J'urthermore, he thinks sane and sensible legislation as proposed will offset much agitations which unscrupulous and selfish inter- ests may dictate. Senator Curtis was much impressed with the recommendations which would give to the president authority to declare a national emergency in case the mines should be shut down and to operate them. Should the operators and miners lock horns over the renewal of the wage scale and as a result mines should be closed as last y , officials here predict that President Harding would not wait until congress recon- venes in December but would call an extra sesslon early in the autumn te meet the situation.

Steels, coppers and motors were among the first to yield to sell- | ing pressure. Youngstown Steel and | Tube and Royal Dutch each advanced a point and some of the dividend paying rails advanced fractionally. A flood of selling orders came into the market and the list turned reac- tionary with selling pressure most ef- fective in the oils, chemicals, motors and equipments. losses of 1 to 2% points were registered by Cosden, Pro- | ducers and Refiners, Pan-American B, Baldwin and American locomotives, General Electric, Studebaker, Chand- | ler, American Can, Corn American Sugar and several others, Unfavorable political developments abroad undoubtedly were the most de- pressing influence on prices during the morning. I‘urther reductions in lead, sugar and Pennsylvania crude oil prices and a continuance of high call money rates also tended to re- strick buying. Motors were sold freely on further confirmation of reports that the peak for production and sales had been passed for this year. Around mid-day the list steadied somewhat when Delaware and Hudson was pushed up to 103% against Saturday's low of 93 1-4 in further reflection of official assurances that no change in the $9 dividend rate was contemplat- ed. Call money opened at 6% per cent, inquiry from outside sources con- tinued to be one of the causes of the softness of the market prices again tending downward in the early after- noon. U. 8.
