to $500.

On account of the excessive heat the
beard of finance, what there was Of it

BRIDGES OYER CUT
City Beautiful Committee
Would Like to Have
Artistic Structures
Built.
NEW HAVEN ROAD
is FAVORABLE
Vice Pres. McHenry Says
Only Thing That Stands
in Way is City
Ordinance.

Some two. months ago when the CITY
Beautiful subject was broached, the
Journal and Courier heartly indorsed
the plan and offered few suggestions
as to what seemed the best way to re-
alize it. Among these suggestions was
one that the best way to prepare for
a CITY beautiful was to make the
most of the architectural plan of the
city as it is at present.
The statement that the looks Of the
city could be very much improved with
very little effort will not be at all
questioned A little more care in the
future. in the laying out Of whatever
new buildings there may be, and the
removal Of some of the present eye
sores in the way of large advertising
sings, unsightly fences, etc, will see
the future New Haven, even though
not a City beautiful a much more
slightly city than the one of 1907
Among the things suggested having,
a good deal to do with the future ap-
pearance OF the city and one which if
neglected will do much to kill public
interest in the putting through of the
plans for a "Clty beautiful" was one
that the bridges over the N. Y, N. <.
& H r. R. cut through the center of
the city be more than passageways
with an unsightly fence, six or seven
feet high on each side to keep out the
steam and the smoke. 1t was suggest
ed that these bridges be made as artis-
tic as possible, perhaps concrete
structure with balustrade of four or
five feet in height and with clusters Of
electric lights on graceful iron columns
placed at equal intervals along the top

INTEREST IN AUTO OUTING
PLEDGE FOR EXPENSES
Adolph Mendel Offers the
Use Of His Ma
chine.

Great interest has been aroused
throughout the city over the Journal
and Couriers Fresh Air Auto excur-
sion which was explained in yester-
days issue. On all sides are heard
remarks commencing the plan, espec-
tally from people interested in the
happiness of children who know that
the little ones at the orphan asylums
get few chances for auto rides
Another IS has been received toward
the payment of the incidental excur-
slons, this sum being from a friend of
the late N. Albert Hooker. The donor
was to have given the IS for some
flowers for Mr.. Hooker but knowing
that that gentleman, were he alive,
would prefer the money spent where it
would do the most good, gave it to the
children.
There will be no lack of automobiles.
In addition to the already good sized
list of machines, Adolph MendeI of the
firm of Mendel and Freedman, yester-
day offered the use of his auto and ii
was accepted with thanks. Other Of
fers of automobiles are expected be-
fore the day of the exclusion.

OF leading liquor dealers with sum-
mcnses to appear in the town court
before Judge Bryant at $3.50 o'clock this
morning to answer to the charge Of
violating the Sunday laws regarding
the sale of liquor Several of the deal

count, but the principal offenses were
committed last Sunday and July I. In
nearly every case service was made on
the bartender and not on the proprie-
tor
While the formal complaints are
made by Liquor Prosecutor Omar w.
Platt of Milford it is generally under
stood that the state police are back Of
the move to put the lid on at the Rock.
I'But beside this there were last night
accusations Of rank favoritism flying
about and out and out statements that
Joseph Bohn and some Of his friends
who are called soreheads and other
names of the kind, gathered evidence
and gave it tc the police Charges were
also made last night that some of the
drinking place which have been keeping
open right along We're not bothered be-
cause they helped the state police out
in getting evidence.
At least half Of the proprietors of
,tv,kxr Jrt, r,1o r4
Rock were given summonses to appear
this morning and one or two proprie-
tors of places which have never had
licenses, notably Conrad Lang, of 4S
Grove street, were also given notice
that their presence was denied.
AS soon as Deputy Sheriff Loomis
commenced to serve the papers, con
sternation spread among the liquor
dealers and restaurants. The Colon
made was among the first to fall within
the clutches of the law. John st. Law
rence's Hills Homestead was another
on which notice was served. William
C. Moegllng Of Moeglings hotel; John

Blanchette, bartender at Raffile's fol-
lowed in rapid scuccession John Cox

while in that neighborhood Deputy
Sheriff Loomis ordered ALBERT Goodyear

MANY SUCCUMB
TO TORRID HEAT
Over 2, 500 Prostrations Dur
ing Great Parade of
Elks in Quaker
City.
POLICE HANDLE
OVER THOUSAND
Procession Requires Four
Hours to Pass a Given
Point in Line of
March.

Philadelphia, July 1S.-The parade Of
the Benevolent and Protective Order Of
Elks to-day was marked during its
progress by the prostration from heat
of an army Of persons estimated by
the police and hospital authorities at
$500. Never has there been such a
wholesale prostrating of people in the
city.
The parade ground was on Broad
street for a distance of three miles
north and the same, distance south of
the city hall. The paraders counter
marched the last three miles back to
the city hall, SO that they traversed
upwards of nine miles, yet a few of
those overcome by the heat were In
the line Of march.
Those who succumbed were among
the spectators jammed along the street
in a solid mass from one end Of the
line to the other. The temperature
hovered around 80 degrees and the hu-
midity was excessive; and as a conse-
quence people sweltered.
Among the few paraders who were
overcome were ]. Harrington Walsh, st.
Paul and ]. Henry Walter, exalted
ruler Of the Philadelphia lodge Of Elks.
The other victims were chiefly from
this city, and the surrounding territory.
The police secured records of more than
1000 cases which were handled by
them or taken to the hospitals, but
hundreds were cared for In the dispen-
saries, where no record of the cases
were kept, while the police surgeons
and nurses cared for innumerable 9TH
ers.
Every attention was given to the
spectators to see that they were pro-
tected, but it required four hours for
the marchers to pass a given point, and
the eager people stood in the hot sun
FOR two hours. or more before the par
ade started The total number in the
line Of march is conservatively esti-
mated at, 10000 men, with about 125
floats.
The grand lodge Installed its newly
elected officers Tonight, at which time
1t was announced that at a previous
session ten state associations OF Elks
had been given official recognition
This decision on the part of the grand
lodge settles fight that has been wag-
ing for two years. The state associa-
tion is restricted in its work and may
not take up legislative matters or In
terfere with legislative affairs in the
subordinate lodges. It's principal work
viii be along charitable and fraternal
lines.
The grand lodge also authorized the
charter committee to issue charters to
| Goldheld and Tonapah, Nevada.
The Elks will go on an excursion to
Valley Forge tomorrow. 1t is also
expected that announcement will be-
made OF the prize winners in the Gin
tests in the parade and for decorations

Will ADDICATE TODAY
HIS MAJESTY YIELDS
Emperor of Korea First I'm
pIores Ito to Help Save
Nation.

Toxic, Friday, July ia dispatch
from Seoul says that the emperor con-
vened the elder statesmen at 1 o'clock
this morning. The cabinet ministers
waited in an adjoining room while the
emperor conferred with the elder states
men.
After two hours conference his
majesty finally yielded and made up
his mind to abdicate.
It was decided to hold the abdication
ceremony at 10 o'clock this morning.
Much unrest prevails about the pal
ace, and a crowd Of 1000 assembled.
A portion of the crowd assaulted the
office of the Daily Kokumin, but the
mob was dispersed before heavy dam
age was inflicted.
Seoul, July II, via Tokio-Marquis Ito
visited the emperor at $50 o'clock this
afternoon in response to the enperor's s
plea.
The audience lasted an hour. 1t is
reported that the emperor appealed i'm
plcringly to the former to help save
Korea from her present complication in
manner satisfactory to the Japanese
and without doing anything derogatory
to the Korean court. Marquis Ito, it is
said, carefully avoided making any def
mite reply.
Japanese foreign Minister Hayashi
arrived at Seoul late tonight and re-
ceived hearty welcome. He drove i'm
mediately to Marquis Ito's residence.

A FATAL PROsTRATION

That yesterday was the hottest day
of the year will not be at all questioned
by anyone living south Of the North
Pole. At about o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon, to prevent the mercury from
going through the top of the tube, the
men at the United States weather bu-
reau had to pack the bulb in ice. Even
then the mercury rose until it stood 80
degrees in the shade. Mr.. Tarr said SO,
and he knows. Some Of the starters at
the Church and Chapel street corner
tried to make reporter believe they
had seen a thermometer with the mer-
curry at the 100 mark. But SO degrees
In the shade was recorded by many
thermometers.
When Mr.. Tarr was asked If he
thought this hot spell was going to
hold out much longer he said he was
sure he did not know. only q month
ago people were complaining of the
cold spring and early summer, and
praying for some genuine old-fashioned
hot weather; and now that they have it
they are not quite so sure they want it.
This spell will last long enough tomake
them wish for those backward cold
spring days..
What made yesterday SO well nigh
unbearable was the humidity, There
have been few days this year when it
has been so great. And for most OF
the day the slightest zephyr did not
make its presence known. About
o'clock last evening it was really COM
Portable, but later in the evening IL be-
came so close and muggy as to be in
sufferable.
On the street yesterday afternoon one
gentleman remarked that, in his per-
sonal opinion, New Haven had been
handed nice big chunk of the infer
nal regions, and getting used to the
heat would be a good thing for some

LEGISLATURE TO
QUIT NEXT WEEK
Both Houses Expect to Dis
pose Of All Business
in Sight To-
day.
SENATE CONFIRMS
CORBIN NOMINATION
Rejects Seven Telephone
Bills Principally Deal
ing With the
Rates.

Hartford, July 1S.--It is believed that
practically all of the business of the
present general assembly will be con-
cluded when the house and senate ad-
journ tomorrow and possibly all mat
ters will be disposed of. If that is the
case the wind up will be in the middle
of next week Senator Walsh and Gov
ernor woodruff had a conference to-
day and the matter of adjournment
was talked over and the senate leader
expressed a belief that tomorrow
would see the wind up of the long
drawn out session. However, there are
many who disagree with the senator
from the Twenty seventh and some are
of the opinion that the sessions will be
continued all next week. That the up
per house is In earnest about hustling
business was evident again to-day
when, after the calendar is disposed Of,
the table was called by Senator Walsh
and many minor resolutions were dis
posed Of The calendar in the senate
is a short one and there is little at the
foot so that If the house can get
through with it's business there may
still be a surprise in store for those
who looked for final adjournment to-
ward the first of August.
The speed in the house this afternoon
was checked, however, for when the
motion to adjourn until Tuesday when
the house did adjourn was taken, 1t
disclosed a lack of a quorum, whereup-
on business ceased. If the house had
continued to sit during the full after
noon much business could have been
disposed of, making adjournment to-
morrow still moro possible.
During the middle of the afternoon
the senate went into executive session
and confirmed the nomination OF VIII
liam H. Corbin as building and loan
commissioner, the nomination being
made last week by Governor Woodruff,
The fact that the appointment had not
been acted upon sooner gave rise to the
rumor that there was hitch in the
confirmation of the nominee 1t was
evident that in the executive session all
