NO CANDIDATE YET TO BUCCEED JUDGE NOYES No Connecticut Name Yet Suggested for Federal Circuit Ceurts Speeial to The Bulletin.) Washington, July 1.—Up te date there has been ne Cennecticut lawyer mamed as a eandidate fer the place on the federal eireuit beneh made vaecant by the resignation of Judge Noyes. The opinion {8 expressed by some of the delegatien and by lawyers vis- ting this city, that the position will mot be filled by a Connecticut man. It was suggested by Congressman | Kennedy that Judge Martin, of the di trict of Vermont, who has been s ting in the Conmneeticut district tem- porarily, may be prometed te the cir- euit bench. That the actions of one member of | the Connecticut delegation has placed | the president in an embarrassing sit- uation, is admitted at'the White House, but it {8 theught by many interested that there is something other than the | opposition of this ene member that is holding up the appointment of a suc- cessor to Judge Platt. It is pointed out that divided delegations are by no means infrekuent, and that the presi- dent must take sides with one side or the other, 4s was done during the past week in the Florida case. _Ab- solutely ne information can be gath- ered at the department of justice, to which all inquiries at the White House are referred. An appointment may be made when the senate again meets, or it may be allowed to run until next fall The secretary of the treasury has promised to take up the matter of ap- pointing the collector of internal rev- enues at an early day. Much of his time has been taken up with consid- eration of the propoged currency bill, and as he said, “matters of more im- pertance.” WANTS TO SEE SPEED ! ON HIGHWAY WORK.| Commissioner Bennett Sends Word to | Engineers to Hurry Contractors. Several centracts for road building, which were let by the state highway department, are not progressing as | rapidly as . Highway Commissioner Charles J. Bennett thinks they should, and he has issued a letter to his di- vision engineers to hurry the work, Commissioner Benett said that, while he had a few contractors especially in mind, he thought the letter would im- prove the general work throughout the =tate. "He was not ready to say who the Jaggard contractors were, The | letter is as follows: Hartford, Conn., June 30, 1913. Dear Sir: I wish to call your atten- fon to the fact that, in my opinion, much of the work which is being done under contract in this state is carried along very slowly. The num- ber of men employed is too small on many of the rcads and severe critcism | is being expertenced on account of the fact that many of the maln roads age cloged too long a.time. | Upon receipt of this letter vou will immediately proceed to take steps to. 8ee that the larger pieces of construc- tion work on the maln roads are pushed to rapid completion. Partic- ular attention must be paid to roads under construction where insufficient detours are provided, | If necessary, you wil® advise the office of failure on the part of the con- tractors te comply with instructions so that steps may be taken to put oth- er contractors on the work where the trouble exists. t Please acknowledge receipt of this letter. Yours truly, CHARLES J BENNETT, State Highway Commissioner. | VIOLENT DEATHS IN JUNE. ! | | | | Warm Water Lured Many and More Suicides and Murders.

There were 17 drownings in the waters of the state. These and other violent deaths brought | the total ;to an even 100 as compared with 52 in ‘May. Trains claimed 17 ! viétitns, including six in the Stamford wreck, automobiles seven and trolley car§ four! In other walks of life there were many -dangers, for six persons | died.from falls and five were crushed to death. Poison was mistakenly taken by four and burns were responsible for three deaths. Runaway. horses fa. tally hurt three and the throwing of stones, two. During the month there were 22 suicides and six homicides, a hundred per cent. increase over May. | Grand President Jackel Will Attend. Herwegh lodge, No. 12, O. d. H.

Love, president of the Universal Peace unifon since its for- mation in 1866 ang one of the world's fameus workers in the cause of in- ternational peace, died on Sunday in Philadelphia at his home after a brief illness. He was eighty-three years 0ld. He was born there on Sept. 7, 1830, the son of William H. and Ra- C¢hel (Evans) Love. Mr. Love, who was the head of a felt manufacturing company founded by his father in Philadelphia, took an active part in advocatin@ the principles of universal peace from the time he was graduated from the Central High school in his home city. His com- mencement thesis was entitled Usiver- sal Peace, and attracted the attention of Willlam Llovd Garrison and other prominent abolitionists, and Love was persuaded to take an active part in the latter work. Together with G rison and others he helped to organize the Universal Peace union, in the late sixties. This union was founded upon a plat- form pledged *“to remove the causes and abolish the custom of war and to | promulgate the .principles of peace.” Mr. IL.ove had served as president of this society and had been constantly upholding the principles of this plat- form. He was largely instrumental in organizing more than forty branches of the union in this couniry and as many corresponding branches in Eu- rope, with representatives in every civ- ilized country in the world. Mr. Love organized the Peace Con- gress at Chicago during the Columbian | exposition, and caused the erection of the first Temple of Peace, at Muystic, Conn. He had attended the congress- es of peace in Europe many times and effected the establishment of the Berne | the Peace congress and Washington.
