ORR SAYS HE
IS OUT OF RACE
Thinks That Office Should
Seek the Man in the
Contest for the
Mayoralty
ALDERMAN LOOS
ALSO WITHDRAWS
Senator Franklin Homan is
Not Yet Ready to
Give Up the
Fight.

The situation in the race for the
mayoralty nomination on the republi-
can side becomes decidedly interesting
through the announcement made yes
terday afternoon of the withdrawal of
Deputy Revenue Collector Frederick
w. Orr. who has been considered the
strongest candidate by many.
The stand that Mr.. Orr takes is that
the office should seek the man, and
not the man the office. AS soon as he
announced that he was not a candi-
date many of his friends came around
and asked him to reconsider. One of
his political friends said that Mr.. Orr
is like Mr. Taft--going down the road
away from the nomination, but going
down slow" as the secretary Of war
said at the commencement dinner CON
cerning himself and Senator Knox.
Mr.. Orr's statement follows;

WOMAN VISITOR
A SHOPLIFTER
Mrs. Creighton Of Montreal
Arrested at the Louvre
Glove Company's
Store.
HAD TAKEN $14.45
WITHOUT SUSPICION
Followed by Detective She
Finally Cries Out That
She Will Pay
for Stuff.

Margaret D. Creighton, middle
aged woman of Montreal, Canada, was
arrested in this city yesterday after
noon by Detective Donnelly after a
clever piece Of detective work The
woman is charged with the theft of
goods from the Louvre glove company
of Chapel street to the value of s1445.
Detective Donnelly saw the woman
come out of the F. w. Woolworth
store while he was talking to another
man. She had an automobile cloak on
and as she passed out she dropped
lady's shirt waist which was not
wrapped up. A gentleman picked it
up for her and she wrapped it in a
piece of paper she had with her,
The detective followed her thinking
her actions Suspicious He traced her
into Gamble -Desmond's and out and
down to the Louvre company. Then
she returned to the Gamble Desmond
company where Mr.. Donnelly followed
her into the ladies' waiting room.
There in private he began questioning
her. She said she was travelling with
her husband, that she lived in Mont
real, and that they were staying at
Savin Rock. Questioned in regard to
her purchases, she said she had bought
two shirt waists, one valued at $40
and the other at $3.50. When she was
asked to show them she unhesitatingly
threw open her coat To the detec-
tive's surprise nothing fell out. She
showed the waists done up in a parcel
but the purchase checks were not there
This she explained by saying her hus-
band had met her and taken some of
her parcels with him. She suggested
that the detective 60 to her home and
Investigate Ii he was at all suspicious.
He suggested returning to the Louvre
company with which she readily COM
piled.
After finding that no sale such as
she had claimed was made there and
that the waists which belonged there
were really valued at $500 and $3.50 the
wcman weakened and said, I'll pay
for the stuff" This cry she repeated.
When asked why she didn't pay at
first she said she didn't know and she
didn't know why she took the goods as
she had money enough to pay for them.
She was then arrested and released
later on bonds of s75, furnished by
the man she had first said was her
husband This man is reported as
saying that they were not man and
wife but that he was expecting to get
divorce from his wife and was plan
ming to marry this woman. He Is a
prominent man socially, and is q trav-
cling salesman Of Chicago. She has
two children, and II yeans of age
who are staying at Revere Beach,
near Boston The man seemed very
much surprised when he learned what
Mrs. Creighton had done. He said he
had supplied her with plenty of money,
They came to this city Saturday af-
ternoon.
On search Of the house they were
staying at at Savin Rock no more
goods were found Besides the two
waists, three stock collars valued at
$1,2O and pair Of Is cent stockings
were recovered.

NEW PROBING PLAN
Alderman Molloy Has Sub
stitute for Rejected
Measure.
SUBJECT RESTRICTED
Wants Method of Assessing
Taxes Made Matter OF
Inquiry.
SUBJECT RESTRICTED

AS soon as the special committee
appointed to consider his resolution
providing for a general probe into the
financial affairs Of the city had rem
dered its report recommending that
the resolution be tabled Alderman
Molloy had a new resolution ready for
the prosecution of his project, The
committees unfavorable report was
accompanied by the opinion Of Cor
poration Counsel Daggett on the reso-
luton, holding, for one thing, that it's
scope was too general. There was no
objection made to the acceptance of
the committee report, which was ac-
cepted without dissent.
Later in the evening Mr.. Molloy
handed in his new resolution, which
provides more definitely stated sub
ject for investigation. The new reso-
luton was referred to committee Of
five, as the former was. The men,
bers Of the committee have not been
named.
The new resolution calls for an in
quiry into the method of levying tax
assessments in this city. The text Of
the motion reads;
Resolved, That, whereas there Is a
vast difference in the inventory value
Of estates returned to the probate
court and the amounts assessed by the
board of assessors on the same prop
erty; and,
Whereas, Tt is apparent from the
tax lists on file in the assessors office
that the owners Of large amounts of
personal property are not taxed at the
same as for a small portion thereof
Resolved, That a committee of five
aldermen be appointed by the chair to
investigate the method of assessment
used by said board, and in so doing to
subpoena the members of said board
Of assessors and such taxpayers as it
may deem necessary to appear before
it, and examine them in relation there
to; and said committee is to report to
this board it's findings and recommen-
dations."
The committee will probably be
named by President Johnson to-day.

BRIDGE IS ORDERED
Long Debate on Wording Of
Wooster Street
Order.
EMERGENCY MEASURE
Fight Made Against Recog-
nizing Property
Holders.

The order for the erection Of a tenn
porary footbridge across the railroad
cut at Wooster street provoked a
length discussion in the board Of ali
dermen last evening. After more than
an hour Of debate the position Of sew
eral opponents of the order in the
form presented was turned and the
vote passed. The order as submitted
by the street committee was accom-
panied by a special message from
Mayor Studley and an opinion from
the corporation counsel. The latter
held that Wooster street had been dis
continued as a street and the proper
ty had reverted to the owners of the
abuttfng land.
The debatable question was the
wording of the order. That submit
ted and finally adopted had as provi-
sions that the city should indemnify
the abutting property holders who are
the Charles W. Whittlesey COM
pany and August Ockert and wife
from any liability during the public
use of the street, and also to refund
any taxes that may be paid on the
land used for the bridge. This word
ing acknowledged that the street had
been discontinued and that the land
formerly belonging to the city had re-
verted to the property owners. This
was upheld by the corporation coun-
sells opinion.
Several members held, despite the
opinion, that the street mad never been
closed and that consequently the land
still belonged to the city and. so they
objected to the use of any language
recognizing the parties named above
as owners of the property.
Alderman McKerness was foremost
in the opposition and he offered an
amendment to strike out all reference
to the property holders and pass the
order regarding the city as owner.
This was after unanimous consent to
consider had been refused. The mat
ter was then brought up and put to a
second reading as an emergency meas
ure called up by the mayors special
message.
Alderman Homan remarked that
the council alone could order a street
closed and he wanted to know If any
vote had ever been passed by the
board closing the street. Clerk PAIL
man said he did not reeollect any.
Alderman Woodford then announce
ed that he wanted to find an order
closing Wooster street before he voted
for the matter. He then began a search
through the journal for such vote.
Alderman Homan objected to the
proposed amendment offered by Al
derman McKerness saying that the
railroad would not build the bridge
unless it was passed in the form they
wanted, which was that proposed. The
matter was laid temporarily on the
table.
Then the tide turned. Alderman
Woodford's research was rewarded.
He had found an order closing Woos-
ter street passed by the board of al
dermen. After that it was easy.
An attempt was made to refer the
matter to the street committee TO re-
port at a special meeting to be held
in one week. This fell through. Then
the bride order was passed and the
railroad may begin work as soon as ii
is ready to do So

new TROLLEYMEN'S union
ON WATERBURY LINES
Mostly New Men Who Be-
long Movement is Not
Popular.

Waterbury, Aug. 5.-The scheme Of
organizing new union among local
trolleymen doesn't seem to be very pop
ular with the majority of the men who
work on the cars. Resin Orr, business
agent for the union, has been working
among the men in this city for some
time and has finally got enough of the
men together to get the organization in
the process of formation.
The trolleymen had meeting Sun
day morning. There were about forty
men there, all Of whom were new
men on the road. 1t is understood that
thirty-nine of the men signed the appli-
cation for the union, only one refus-
ing. These thirty-nine men constitute
less than one-third of the number of
of Waterbury trolleymen, as there are
about 140 men here. The union
workers promised more recruits later.
Mr., Orr has sent the charter to head
quarters in Detroit to be signed and
it is expected to be back here by the
time of the next meeting on Saturday
night. At that time officers will be
elected.
