Another Delay In the appointment of

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, March 19. An.
other delay occurred today in the con.

Mr.. Garfield, in asking for the post.
ponement, said he thought the remain
ing arguments would be of short dura-
ton, as the ground had been gone over
thoroughly at yesterdays hearing, and
he 1ntimated that counsel might reach
some agreement before afternoon.
Mr.. Carr, counsel for the minority
heirs, was asked later if any agreement
had been reached, and in reply said
positively that no conference had taken
place, and he had heard of no agree
ment. Mr.. Carr said that his clients
were still united in their opposition to
the appointment of Mr.. Smith of this
city, whose name had been suggested
by the party first as a colleague of
Messrs. Percival and Norton, and later
as sole administrator for Connecticut,
and added that he would accept the ap-
pointment of the Bridgeport Trust COM
pany, or some other similar corporation.

WAS A CHILDISH OUTBREAK
Reported Attack by French Not Se-
riously Regarded.

FlOuSly Regarded.
TIEN-TsIN, March 19.-Speaking of
the attack made by number of excited
French soldiers on some members of the
British Sikh regiment Sunday in the
French concession, General Lorne-
Campbell says it was merely childish
outbreak against the orders of their own
general, who had forbidden the French
soldiers to enter the British concession.
This order followed a request made
by General Lorne Campbell after almost
every resident had complained of the
behavior Of the French insulting women,
refusing to pay for punches, acting
riOtously and abusing American and
English soldiers. General Voyron, the
French commander, recognized that this
must stop ana ordered the French SOL
diers to keep in their own concession
General Lorne Campbell was perfectly
satisfied that General Voyron was in
harmony with himself and anxious to
maintain order.
Major Foote, Ninth United States in
fantry, says the French soldiers were
frequently abusive to the American
troops, who were unarmed while out on
pass, while the French were armed with
swords or bayOnets On one occasion
an American disarmed a Frenchman
and turned over his weapon to the SER
geant of the guard, explaining satisfac-
torily his reasons for the action taken.

GEORGE WATsON'S METHOD
International Yacht Race Fixed For
June.

LONDON, March 49, - The method
adopted by George L. Watson in weight
ing the Kief Shamrock marks an inter
esting departure from his previous work.
Instead of the usual boltlng block of tin
in the new boat, the manganese bronze
plating has been carried down to the
point of greatest draught, and the lead,
weighing nearly 80 tons, hes been run
inside, The advantages ea2ected are
greater rigidity, from the weight being
borne inside the frames, and less fric-
ton. owing to the plates having a
smoother surface than the lead

how the cup challenger will fare un-
der the British measurement rules, the
Glasgow exhibition authorities have ar
ranged special prize for the yacht first

SUGAR COLONY A0ITATED
Imposition of Uniform Duty Would
Be Detrimental.


LONDON, March 19.-The prospective
duty on sugar is agitating the West
India committee which is trying to en-
list the aid of the colonial Office in sup
port of their views. The COMMITTEES
holds that the imposition of a uniform
duty will practically amount to a pro-
hibition of the importation into this
country of any but refined sugar, and
would therefore be most detrimental to
the interests of the sugar colony
III the event Of duty being decided
upon the committee will point out that
the scheme ought to provide at least
four different rates of duties for sugars
Of varying quantities and that the quail
ity should be determined by the price of
polarization, as color is no longer a
proper test. The committee also be.
heves that saccharine, glucose, ETC.,
should be taxed proportionately.

Feot Bridge VIII Probably Be Rebuilt.

1t is understood that it has been
about decided to rebuild the TicoHic
foot bridge which was carried out.
Monday morning. The bridge had bee1
in operation long enough to show that
it was good sound business venture
and capable of paying good interest on
the investment. The croakers wh"
have always predicted the complete
failure of the bridge have been silenced-
When the plan for building the bridge
was broached they declared that doz--
en- people wouldn't cross in day. Who.
said they, was going to pay two cents
for crossing when in the summer they
could go free by walking little farther
and especially when they had bicy-
Gle or in the winter when they could
cross on the ice and walk less
But the last day the bridge was in
operation 100 people paid toll. This.
was perhaps unusual as the ice was not
safe, but 900 was not an unusually large
number and the business was steadily
increasing. The bridge was not in
operation hardly long enough to be
come a fixed convenience, but long
enough to demonstrate its usefulness.
Now that it has gone out every one
wants to see il replaced which will
probably be done
