BILL GIVING PEOPLE VOICE
 IS REJECTED
Other Matters of Special h. terest to Bridgeport Con- sidered by the General Assembly, Today.
(by our Staff Corres.)

Hartford, May 13.-The House today concurred with the Senate in rejecting the bill permitting the Board of Alp portionment and Taxation of Bridge port to refer any question relating to an appropriation of money to the vot- CTS. This was the bill offered to meet the suggestion of former Secretary of State John J. Phelan, a member of the board, to enable the submission of the appropriation for a supply of water.
 The bill is one phase of a long con- test between the Board of Aldermen and citizens of Bridgeport and the Bridgeport Hydraulic Company. Hon. Allan w. Paige, formerly Senator, ap- peared against the bill, saying that the Board of Apportionment did not want it and the people did not want it, when the measure was heard before the com mittee on Cities and Boroughs.
 The Senate concurred with the House in passing a bill empowering the ad- ministrator of the estate of the late Rev. George Csaba, who was pastor of the Hungarian Catholic church in the west end of Bridgeport, to sell all of the real estate.
 Charles H. Peck of Stratford, presid- ed in the House today in the absence of Speaker Banks, and made fine im- pression on the members by his com posture and Knowledge of the methods of procedure.

Special from United Press.)

Paris, May 13.-In to-day'S resump- ton of the hearing of Count Boni De Castellane's appeal from the verdict giving the custody of his children to their mother, Princes De Sagan, for merly Miss Anna Gould, Maitre Bon net, counsel for Boni, repeated his charges that a separation between Prince De Sagan and his wife is inn rr.inent. He went so far as to say that he has proof that the Princess has pre- pared to place her sons in a provin- cial school to escape having them giv- en into the custody of the Marquise De Castellane, a bitter enemy of the Prince.
 Bonnet rehearsed his former charges of immortality against the Prince and declared that his marriage to the chil- dren'S mother did not fit him to eXer- else a guardianship over them. He said the eldest two children desired to enter a naval academy.

Browning Achievement of Board of Trade Which Raised $1O,OO0 for Fac
 tory Site.
New Concern is Largest Manufacturer of Sterling Silverware in This Coun- try and Is Coming to Bridgeport in Order that It May Grow = It Will Have Modern Fireproof Plant in East End.

For the first time in the history of Bridgeport its Board of Trade has gone out among it's members and raised a big sum of money to induce concern to come here. It has raised $10,0OO to purchase five acres of land in Bishop avenue. which will be presenting to the Whiting Silver O.. of New York in order that it may locate here.
 The members of the Board of Trade never has had to offer cash induce ments before and the only reason that it has done so in this case is because of the excellence of the concern, which IS one of the oldest established and best known concerns in America. The company wanted to get out of New York and several Massachusetts and New York state cities were holding out inducements.
 President Fred Enos started Is months ago to interest the concern ana it was not until to-day that he was able to announce positively that the concern is coming and that ground will be broken in a few days for the big plant which will cover the entire five acre tract.
 To start the s25.ooo fund there were twelve citizens who contributed $5E each and the rest of the money came fin smaller contributions. The money is given without ostentation and the contributors only desire that the Board of Trade get the credit for getting the concern to this city.

In Grabbing to Hold Too Much Monopoly May Lose
 Part of What It Has.
Few People in the State Were Aware of the Sta tute that Permits Light ing Companies to "Hog" Everything in Sight Hearing in Hartford To day.
(By Our Staff Correspondent.)

(By Our Staff CorreSpOndent.)
 Hartford. May 13.-There was a live ly time before the Committee on Judi ciary. this afternoon, at 2 o'clock. when the business men and manufacturers of the state locked horns with the cleo tric monopoly for the repeal of the odious statute which forbids persons and corporations selling to their neigh bors electricity for lighting.
 The story of recent events is inter esting and instructive. It seems that a big concern in Prideeport, the How land Dry Goods Company, esta blished an electric plant of it's own on it's own premises and later ran a wire into a neighboring establishment and sold electricity there, sending it in by this wire. Thereupon the United Illumi- hating Company, the name of the cleo tric concern that has the monopoly of Bridgeport. New Haven and other the arrangement. The managers of the Rowland company declined to scare and notified the monopoly managers that they could go to where there reason no move was taken and now it has developed that there were doubts about how to enforce the law.
 Accordingly. the attorney of the duced to strengthen the monopoly and it is eycrcted that this exhibition of greed will be the undoing of the whole game. The proposed measures were to provide a penalty for supplying a neighbor. to authorize the granting of an injunction to stop summarily such neighborly arrangements, and actually to forbid making anything not speci- fica1ly chartered to make. It was the discussion of these projects of fiber ality that opened the subject.
 Among those present were: A. M. Cooper and Wallace G. Taylor of the Rowland Dry Goods Co.,; Former Sen ator William R. Brown, Representing the Union Metallic Cartridge Com pany. Attorney George R. Burnes secretary of the Bridgeport Business Mems Association, Hobart French and a number of others of Bridgeport. States Attorney Stiles Judson. made 8 powerful argument for the repeal of the bill. The electric interests were represented by a strong array of coun- sel. notable among whom was Judge A. B. Beers of Bridgeport. Those Tn favor of the repeal of the existing statute are greatly encoura ged by the rallying to their forces of business men and manufacturers all over the state.

To Stop the Ravages of This Disease He Would Make it a Crime to Sell Milk Not Properly Pasteurized and Would Therefore Attack Tuberculosis in the Dairy Farm.
Especial from United Press.)

(Spec1a1 rom On1IeQ HIeSS)
 Washington, May 13.-That the re- cent vigorous campaign against tuber- culosis has failed to check the great white plague was the statement made in a letter from Nathan Straus, read at the opening session of the fifth an- nuai meeting of the National Associa- tion for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis here today.
 MT. Straus backs up his assertion by official statistics from the New York Health department showing an in crease of B per cent. in two years in cases of tuberculosis in the city that Dr. Coch described as leading the whole world in the fight against dis ease The reason for this failure to make headway, MT. Straus declares, is the neglect of the ravages wrought by tuberculosis. He says that the aboi1- when it is made a crime to sell milk unless it comes from tuberculin tested cows or has been properly pasteur- iZed.
 MT. Straus' letter is in part as fol-
 Prevention that deals only with in lection in tuberculosis and ignores the mischief wrought by the tuberculosis dairy cow, is the sort we have had, and it has failed to prevent a B per cent. increase in the number of victims of the disease. This explanation would be untrue to the International Congress for which we are responsible if it were to rest content with this sort of pre- vention, for that Congress unanimously decreed that measures are to be con- tinued against bovine tuberculosis and that it's transmission to man is to be recognized.'
 '1The situation is far too serious for any further potering over the bubbles about a microscopic difference in the appearance of the tubercole germ found in milk and those found in cows. Dr. Mohler of the Department of Az riculture among others has shown that two forms of bacillus are due to the media in which they live and that each planted.
 Dr. Ravenel of Wisconsin, and pr. Theo. Bald Smith of Harvard, have isolated the germs of bovine type in the tissues of children who have been killed by tuberculosis, and I have be- fore me methods of 32 cases of cfi1- dren in which the germs were un- doubtly bovine. Investigations in Washington showed one out of every IS samples of milk taken to be tuber- culosiS and that one out of every ten dairies supplied tuberculosis milk. Dr. Schroeder has shown that one tuber- culosis may infect the milk of the en- tire dairy.
 ..In the light of these facts, feel that I am amply warranted in urging this association to take the important and necessary step forward and at tack tuberculosis in its citadel, the dairy fer.n"
