BIGGER BANK
 FOR ELM CITY
New Haven Trust Compa- nies to Follow Example of Bridgeport Banks and Consolidate.

New Haven, Aug. Swallowing the example of Bridgeport banks, which have consolidated to make a financial ly stronger single bank the task of forming a large new trust company from the New Haven and Union Trust companies will be progressively con- tinued by the officials of the two con cerns who have discussed informally the proposition and decided that the measure is desirable. Most of the directors and stockholders of the two trust cornpaias are out of the city and the project cannot be placed before ther1 at present, but it will be laid bcCore them as soon as. practicable and the expressions of approval which have already greeted the idea, make It probable that it will be warmly well comed by the stockholders.
 The officers of the new company are still coniectural with one exception. It is understood when the Eew com pany is formed, that w. Perry Curtiss will be the active manager of the con cern. He will probably be vice-presi- dent and treasurer, the offices he now holds for the New Haven Trust com pany.
 The following official statement has been given out by John w. Bristol of the Union Trust company:
 Tn the case of some large estates and trust mortgages which belong in this community there has been a dis pOSllIOh IO uSS U uSI COliPd~iiiCS III 4NSW York and other large cities, where these companies have larger capital and resources Some people interested in the Union and New Haven Trust companies have considered the advisa- bility of uniting the business of these companies, with the idea that a strong CT company could better serve the community and retain business which naturally ought to be done here. If any definite arrangements results ir this connection. a public statement will be made at the proper time"
 The New Haven Trust company is capitalized for S200.OO0 and has surplus and profits of s9O,0O0. while the Union Trust company has a. capital of $100,- 00o and surplus of S210,000

EMANCIPATION DAY
 WELL OBSERVED
Local Negroes Celebrate An niversary of Signing of Lincoln's Famous Procla- nation.

To-day is Emancipation Day. Just 47 years ago Abraham Lincoln issued his proclamation which made the negro a free man with equal rights consist ent with the constitution of the United States and this is the anniversary of the event. Every negro man, woman and child in the United States should celebrate this day by at least a word of thanks and a thought for Abraham Lincoln who fought for their freedom and was not satisfied until justice had been done to every one.
 Throughout the South to-day the negroes of that section will celebrate the anniversary of the signing of the proclamatio unmolested by the men who fought to retain them as slaves in 1861. In this city it is a certainty that every man of the colored race who can get over to Steeplechase Is land for the day will be on hand to aid in the celebration. Colored people from Bridgeport and the contiguous cities will be there in large numbers to celebrate the anniversary of the freedom of the negro from slavery. Shenandoah lodge, colored, Knights of Pythias, are conducting the festivities, being one of the most popular colored organizations in the state, and throughout the afternoon the mem bers and their families and friends en- joyed themselves. Tonight there will be a ball in the dance hall and an at tendance of over 1000 is looked for. To-day the colored people own Steeple- chase Island and having looked for ward to the event with much en- thusiasm they came prepared to have a good time.
 Everywhere the negro is celebrating the freedom of his race. Some with song, some with feaSting and merry making and not few with solemn thoughts of that great character who could only interpret the constitution of the United States in one way "All men are created free and equal"

GOMPERS SCORCHED
 BY MINE JOURNAL
Charges that Federation Paid Expenses for Benefit
 .. of Laboring Men. -..
BUT HE BROKE FAITH
Special from United Press.)

Special from United Press0
 Indianapolis, Aug. 5.-Samuel Comp CTS, president of the American Fed eration of Labor, according to the United Mine Workers Journal, has in cured not only the enmity of the largest single union within the Fed eration, but has brought down column of abuse in the Journal, the official organ of the miners. The Journal charges that Gompers was sent to Europe by the Federation with his expenses paid and that the result Of his investigation abroad was to be given to the laboring men of this coun- try for their betterment- The Journal states that it and other labor papers were offered the weekly letters of Samuel GomperS giving the result of his Investigations and his conclusions at $1 per letter per week, and said that the letters had been sold by the previous arrangements by Gompers to a newspaper which in turn was to get it's money from the labor press of America.
 The Journal announces that it will not publish the Gompers letters be- Europe the Journal has a free right to'aS the official paper of enc of the unions that is paying his way and his salary The Journal states 800, that
 
 cussion by the National executive board of the union. Referring to Gompers' action as 'hold-up" the Journal says:
 Two million half starved working men cheerfully wished President Gompers God-speed on his visit and yet before he leaves our shores he has entered into an agreement by which if we desire to get the benefits of his visit we are requested to chip in to the tune of S1 per letter to make up Gompers' expenses and to further in crease the financial benefits of the trip to the man we were all favoring 2 so bounteously when our croftsmen were starving on half a days work per week and thousands of them idle for months. caused by the closing down of mills and factories
 Now this is wrong. We might go further and say that it is viciously so. If President Gornpers could not afford the trip on the conditions made by the American Federation of Labor he should have stayed at home.
 The letters will not be published in the Journal President Gompers would not have been Tn Europe now if we and the like of us had not paid our taxes and 10 us. as an official organ

Weather Indications

New Haven, Aug. 5.-Forecast: Clearing this afternoon; fair tonight and Friday.
 The disturbance that was central near Atlantic City yesterday morning has moved further eastward and is now central near Block Island. It has produced cloudy and rainy weather during the past 24 hours along the north Atlantic coast. It is raining this morning in New England but pleasant weather prevails generally in other sections east of the Rocky Noun tains. The temperature continues cool in the northern sections
 Conditions favor for this vicinity clearing weather during today follow ed by fair for tonight and Friday

For instance: D comes down the street intending to turn to the right. Along comes A at a good clip and cuts the corner. If D is going as fast as A there is probably a collision at F which could have been avoided had A taken the wide curve as shown by B and c. If D is proceeding cautiously he can probably hold up until A pas sed, but A is plainly in the wrong and is violating the state law. In case of accident he would be to blame and li able to the penalty.

 We ask in the interests of all city traffic to publish the accompanying diagram secured through the kindness of City Engineer M. F.

on the principal streets of the city it is wise to be on the safe side. Apart from that every user of the street should be considerate for the safety of others.
 We hope by calling attention to the proper method of turning corners we may assist in promoting the safety of vehicular traffic. Thanking you in advance for the courtesy of publica- ton. we are

walks committee meeting the night
after sent a recommendation to the
council advising that the proposition be
accepted at once.
However. there were still number
OF the more pensive in the council and
to test the strength of the accommoda-
ton with time it was decided to first
refer it to the park board and then
back to the city council. The park
board had favored the plan originally
and now they have favored it in writ
ing-at least it is expected that the
written form will be handed to the city
clerk some time today.
If the park board favors all of the
plans suggested by Mr.. Rickenbacher
in writing and the matter is presented
in this manner to the city council the
friends of the new park will come to
its rescue and push it through to the
finish.
In case this happens the city en-
cheering force Will lay out the lots at
once, the new boulevard will be con-
structed along the edge of the park and
the preliminary work on the opening OF
the park proper will commence.

rounding land is peculiarly adapted to
such a course. Bleachers and grand

an amphitheater effect to the grounds.
There is ample room for all sorts of

Just north of the athletic field it is
