FOUR MORE SITES
 ARE SUGGESTED Contagious Diseases Hos pital Matter Crops Up
 Once More. BEFORE THE ALDERMEN All in Western Part of City Eagles Ask Green
 illumination.
BEFORE THE ALDERMEN

After several months of silence the doctors and others who have been pushing the project for a contagious disease hospital break forth into the limelight and throw down the gaunt- let to the people of the western part of the city by entering before the board of aldermen petition in which they name four new and possible sites for the proposed hospital The petition was read at the meeting of the alder men last night and was referred to the special committee of which Alderman Henry H. Townshend is the chairman. The propositions made will doubtless meet with fierce opposition from the people in the western section of the city, One of the aldermen suggested last night that it might be necessary to hold the next public hearing, which will come some evening next week, in the Hyperion theater.
 The full text of the petition is as follows:
 To the Board of Aldermen of the City
 of New Haven:
 The undersigned, citizens of New Haven, respectfully petition your hon. orable body to bond the city of New Haven in the sum of one hundred thousand dollars for the erection and equipment of municipal hospital for contagious diseases in the city of New Haven, said hospital to be maintained by the city of New Haven for the care and treatment of contagious diseases, excepting smallpox; and we further petition your honorable body to deter mine upon one of the following pro- posed sites for the location of the said hospital:

DISCUSSED BUT
 NOT SETTLED Tuberculosis Congress Takes Up the Question of
 Infection.
DISEASE IN CHILDREN
Commonest Source House Contagion from Tubercu-
 lar Surroundings.

Washington, May 6.--"Tubereulosis infection from bovine and other germs vs. infection through human germs, was discussed at length to-day at the meeting of the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tubereu- losis, in third annual session here. The question was not settled and the prop osition was mooted of appointing committee to continue the study of that subject.
 The question came up at the after noon session in the section of tubercu- losis in children. Several papers were read and a general discussion followed each. Dr. Charles Hunter Dunn, Of Boston, had for his subject Recent Advances in the Knowledge of Tuber- culosis in Children. Discussing the frequency of tuberculosis in early life, he said that it increases from month to month and year to year, but that in the cases in which 1t was found as the cause of death tt decreased from year to year. In early life tuberculosis did not affect the lungs as it did in the case of the adult. but frequently re- mained hidden in the internal glands in children until an acute form of tuber- cular meningitis or pneumonia caused death. He declared that children have no power of resistance against these acute outbreaks, and that small babiess showed no tendency toward the healing of the lesions.
 Coming to the sources of tubercular infection, he mentioned the various theories that it was congenital due to dust or moist sputum, and said that while there was truth In all of them,

DANBURY CHURCH GUTTED BY FIRE Large Chapel of the First Congregational Also
 Destroyed. LOSS ABOUT $65, ,OOO H. c. Meserve, the Pastor, Formerly of This City
 and Milford.
LOSS ABOUT $65, ,OOO

Danbury May 6.-The First Congre- gational church, large frame struc- ture on Main street, in the business section of the city, and the large chapel adjoining were burned tonight, entail- ing loss of about $65,OOO, with partial insurance. The cause of the fire, which the entire fire force of the city fought for two hours, Is not known.
 The edifice, built forty years ago, was one of the landmarks of the city, was one hundred feet deep and surmounted by steeple containing a huge bell and the town clock, The weather vane on the top of the steeple was 200 feet above ground. The fire broke out in tho chapel, where earlier in the even ing May supper" had been held. It was discovered by the janitor, who, with two or three women, was clean ing up after the supper. At first the blaze appeared insignificant, and they attempted to beat it out, but as it gained headway rapidly an alarm was turned in. Within fifteen minutes the whole chapel was ablaze, and within twenty minutes the fire had communi- cated to the main edifice, sweeping along through the church and bursting out of the front doors. Rapidly it worked upward until the steeple was enveloped and column of fire 200 feet high was lighting up the city with a weird and spectacular effect. So in tense became the heat from the burn ing structure that buildings 800 feet away were scorched and the firemen Jwere kept busy quenching ineipient blazes on buildings in the neighbor- hood In anticipation of the falling of tIse steeple a clear space was maintain Ad on all sides as nearly as possible, and when the steeple did fall no one was injured. Later, when a lower part Of the structure fell several firemen were in its path, but managed to get out of the way.
 The "Manse,' the residence of the pastor, Rev. H. c. Meserve, was scorched, but the flremen prevented serious injury to it. Probably ten buildings in the immediate vicinity. of the church were smoking at times dur !, ing the fire, but streams of water were turned on them and the danger of de- structed was averted.
 Rev H. c. Merserve is a son of Rev. I. c. Meserve, for many years pastor of the Davenport Congregational church of this city, and now of San Francisco. H. c. Meserve formerly occupied the pulpit of the Milford Con gregational church.

No Hope of Preferential Treatment
 Held Out by Britain.

London, May 6.-Davfd Lloyd-George, president of the board of trade, was the principal speaker at to-days ses- sion of the imperial conference. Like MT. Asquith, the chancellor of the ex- chequer, he held out no hope that the mother country would grant preferen- tial treatment to the colonies In sum- ming up the situation he said the colo ries had asked the British government to do what no protectionist country in the world would do, namely "tax the necessaries we could not produce our selves and with which the colonies could adequately supply us for many years"
 The government, MT. Lloyd-George declared, had given the colonies the answer the colonies would have given if they had been asked to change their own fiscal systems.
