 Convention.

Attorney Talcott H, Russell left yes- terday for Portland, Me-, to take part in the national convention for uniform laws. Mr. Russell has attended sev- eral annual sessions and has done work on the committees.
 Mir Russell stated before leaving the city that the convention at this years meeting. which would last for about a week, would last for about week, week, would take up the matter oi bills of lading. All railroads and ship pers are interested in this matter and the plan is to get uniform law to cover the subject.
 Two very important measures adopt cd by the convention of last year have become law in several states, including Connecticut. One of these measures pertains to a uniform law regarding warehouse receipts. Millions of dollars are located every year on these re- celpts and business men have recog- nized the importance of having a uni form law on the subject.
 Another Jaw adopted in several states pertains to the sale of personal prop. erty.

NEW DIRECTORY OUT.
Estimate Places City Population at
 100000.


 The city director for 1907 came into general use yesterday, and if the sys- tenn of compilation of Price, Lee & Adkins, the publishers of the directory, Is correct, the population now is some where in the neighborhood of 140, 1000, figuring that for every name in the di- rectory there are two residents. Those are chiefly people who have not reach ed the age of eighteen years, so as to entitle them to space for their names in the directory. Last year it was es- timated that the population of New Haven was about 130,000.
 There are in the 1907 directory 71,- .304 names including 2,066 removals. One hundred and forty thousand is far above the figures wh1cn the last Unit ed States census gave New Haven for it's population. That taken In 1900 credited New Haven with having a population of 108,027.
 The city directory shows that a large portion of the population is shifting, for in the preparation of the I1907 directors, 1O,427 persons have lchanged their addresses. There were S,809 names erased and 11,722 added. The total increase in the number of names in the directory is 2,919

BOOKINGS AT HYPERION
GOOD SHOWS IN STORE
Early Attractions That Will be a Relish to Theater-
 Goers.

The Shubert Bros have booked some splendid things for the opening month at the Hyperion theatre. The presen- tation of George M. Coan's musical play will open the season, two nights, September B and IA, and will give the New Haven public an opportunity to enjoy this latest product of his ever ready pen.
 Among other plays which will be produced here during the month are "The Girl from the Golden West" with Miss Blanche Bates, Lew Fields in "The Girl Behind the Counter" The Bells of Mayfair" Joe Weber and his company, David Warfield in his new play, "A Grand Army Man." Henry Woodruff in Brown of Harvard" and McSntire and Heath in "The Ham Tree" It seems safe to prophecy suc- cessful season if things as good as these keep coming, and there are whis- pers of all sorts of relishes, which will follow each other in rapid succession, to gratify the hunger of the theatre going public.

PAVING BIDS ARE OPENED.
Failure of Board to Have Quorum De-
 lays Contracts.

Bids for the paving of three streets were opened yesterday morning by City Engineer Kelly for the permanent paving commission, but as only Elizur Sperry and James c. Kerrigan of the commission appeared on the scene there was lack of a quorum and noth- ing was done with the bids beyond the opening. A meeting will be call ed later in the week if present plans work out at which time the contracts will be awarded in all probability.
 Three bids were submitted for the paving of State street. which is the great piece of work under considera- ton just now. The lowest one was that presented by Warren Brothers of Bos- ton. This is the company which laid the bithulitic pavement In Broadway .and the State street pavement is to be of the same material The price offered by this company is $2.27 per square yard. The Standard Bithulitic company of New York presents a price of $2.S9 and the Atlantic, of Richmond, Vt, offers $2.7S.
 Tor Carlisle street four bids were presented as follows: Frank Brazos, .$2,253.42; Upson & Daley, $2,23728; .C. w. Blakeslee & Sons, $2,2S9.99, and the B. D. Pierce, jr, Co., of Bridgeport, .$21S8.1O. The latter company being the lowest bidder will probably get the job. It is now doing the upper end of Prospect street.
 For the paving of Oak street with the new Hassam, only one bid was of fered, and that by the Connecticut Hassam company. This company was recently organized by several local men, and it submitted bid of $19O a square yard for the 2,SS0 square yards, estimated to be in the job.

 Advertising.

Waterbury, Aug. 19-Despite the as- sertion by the management of The Time, the Place and the Girl" now ap- bearing at Wallacks that a certain picture used in advertising the produc- tion was not that of Miss Mary Cloves of this city, but an artists sketch of an imaginary young woman who look cd remarkably like her. Miss Cloves has instituted a $1O,O0O suit against the Asllin 6, Singer company of Chicago. owners of the production, which is now playing, as stated above, in Wallack's theater, New York, The papers were served on Charles A, Goettler, manager of the company, yesterday, and were drawn up by the law firm of George Morgan & Son of 27 William street, New York.
