Insane at Intervals.

That the suicide was victim Of
melancholia, superinduced by the fact
that he was insane at intervals, there
is no doubt. It was in his moments
of sanity that he realized his unfor-
tunate condition, and he looked for
ward with a horrible dread to the
time when he would be taken to the
House of Detention, a recourse al
ready under consideration by his rela-
tives.
Long was seen at 12:45 by the land

nothing unusual about his appearance
or frame of mind. In fact, he was

his room, and there prepared for his
death with all the cunning of a ration.

JOSHUA MELTzER SEEKS REMEDIAL
 STATE STATUTES
Not Only Favors Public Utilities Bill But Wants Measures For Benefit of Working People
REMOVAL OF s5,OOO LIMIT

That he not only is heartily in favor
 of the public utilities campaign of the
 Bridgeport Business Mems association,
 but would like to see that influential
 body line itself up on the side of a
 number of other progressive bits of
 legislation, is the reply returned by
 Joshua Meltzer, Democratic candidate
 for representative to the letter of in quiry from the associa tiOn.
 MT. Me1tzer believes that the state
 needs a good public utilities bill, the
 removal of the $5,000 limit for death
 damages and good Employers Iia- bility bill
 His letter is as follows:
 Bridgeport, October 20, 1910.
 State Business Mems Association of Connecticut, MT. Andrew R. Jones President:
 Dear Sir:-In reply to. your letter of the 7th inst. requesting me to state my attitude on the Public Utilities bill prepared by your association, I beg to say that I have already stated public ly, before and after my nomination, that I am '-unqua1if1ed1y'' in favor of ture, of an reflective" Public utilities bill, and if elected, shall actively as- sist in passing the best and most eff and if on close examination, I shall find that the bill prepared by your as- sociatfon is the best and most effective one, I shall unquestionably, not only
 
 it's passage by the legislature, as I am l a convinced believer in the need of an effective Public Utilities bill. And may I venture to suggest to you, that in order to strengthen the position of the association with the general public on the question of the Public Utilities bill, it should include in it's legislative program the Employ CTS Liability bill and the bill for the | removal of the $5,000 limit in the case of death by negligence, and agitate the passage of all the three bills. You will admit that this legislation is the crying need of the time in this state, which is far behind other states in this respect. but this legislation would favor a class of people, who though in great majority. are helpless under present conditions, therefore it | is not agitated as it's importance de- mands. And if the association would agitate the passage of this legislation together with the Public Utilities bill, | it would not only perform a great pulp | lie service, but it would make the pas sage of the Public Utilities bill an as- | take on all needed legislation of such vital importance would enhance the prestige of the association before the legislature and it would demonstrate l clearly to the public that not motives 1 of selfish interests actuate the asso-
 matters, but that consideration of the
 peoples interests and public veal is l the main spring of its activity. 1 This suggestion is made with the sole purpose in view of helping to pass l the Public Utilities bill, and at the same time, help pass other very much | needed legislation.
 | Yours respectfully.
 JOSHUA MELTZER, Democratic nominee for representative.

CHRISTIAN UNION PASTOR RETURNS
 AND IS WELCOME E

It isn't generally known that Charles W. Simpson, who came here last Feb Union Mission on Bank street, had thrown himself into the work of help ing needy men and women so unself- isfly that he became almost worn out, about a month ago. and that his wife had also interested herself in the work until she was in like condition.
 When the directors of the Union dis covered this condition of affairs, MT. and Mrs. Simpson were encouraged to go away for rest and change.
 Dr. N. E. Wordin rendered the use of his cottage at Sachern's Head. A permanent assistant for MT. Simpson was employed and placed in charge of the work during his absence. They have rested and -recuperated since and everyone who has the best well fare of the city at heart will be glad to know that they have just returned and are in good condition to take up the work again.
 Some of the men who have been helped to overcome appetites for drink and drugs and aided to secure good ciety again have come around to well come MT and Mrs. Simpson back again in a way that<has warmed their hearts and shown convincingly that there is much of real gratitude still existent in this old world.
 These and others are glad for Simp- son and the Christian Union and all over the city there are hundreds of men and women who will rejoice that such a good work is being done. The interest is now so great and the demand on the building so heavy that it looks as if larger quarters would be needed before the winter is over Jeremiah Holmes, who is somewhat of a prophet and who is now Financial Secretary of the Union, talked about $3o.000 building when the plan was first outlined and has his eye on the site. He tells the story of D. l.. Moody and his tempta- ton hiIl where MT. Moody hoped some one would be tempted to. put fine building It came in lis case and it is to be hoped that some one with money and a desire to do good work will be tempted to do likewise in this city.

FIFTY DROWNED, IN SINKING OF
 BRITISH BOAT
Especial from United Press,


 Rio de Janeiro, Oct. 22.-FGfty per sons known to have been drowned and a boatload of IS others missing. is the report received here, to-day, in con- nection with the report of the sinking, late last night, of the British steam ship Valley. The vessel foundered in a terrific storm within sight of the Arrozales Hghtship,i off the northeast coast, and within 8 few miles of the city of Para.
 Seventy-dve of the passengers and crew are reported to have been rescu- ed, most of the women and children hlaving been saved. All of these were taken off in small boats. Only the most neagre and unconf1rmed reports have been received here, but these in dicate that the vessel was lost through some trouble with either her steering gear or her engines, as a result of which she drifted on a rocky projec- tion and filled rapidly.
 It is believed that those lost were drowned in the capsizing of small boats in the heavy sea which was run ming at the time and which drove the Valley inshore.
 Havana, Oct. 22.-The revenue cut ter Cesdepes has been wrecked off Cape San Antonio, and the captain and entire crew, with the exception of two, are reported to have been drown ed. The Cuban steamer Rita and the Norwegian steamer Flames, together with many small craft of every de- scription, are reported ashore on the northwest coast of Pinar Del Rio.
 An American bark. whose identity has not yet been ascertained, was also wrecked in that vicinity. but the crew were saved.

FIREMAN FARLEY GOES TO JAIL TO
 WAIT FOR TRIAL

Charles Farley, the call fireman ac- him in the city court today, and af- ter he had attributed his crime to his wife interference with his eTn- ployment in various shops, he was held in bail of $200 for trial in the Superior court. Farley's thrusting of the blame for his downfall upon his wife. who has been the mainstay of his family for many months, did not win him any sympathy from the city court officials, and though Prosecu- tor Redden had at first recommended to the court that the bail for Farley's appearance in the upper court be fix ed at $100. Judge Wilder would not consent and he made it double that amount Or $100 on each count
 the city court pen today than at any time since his arrest. His wife oc- cupied seat among the spectators and volunteered no protest when he charged her with being the cause of his enforced idleness.
 ''Everytine I got a job'' said Far ley, "she would come to the shop and ask if I was drinking and that way I lost them all" A few weeks ago we got notice to leave our home. Then we got a notice from the sheriff, and rather than have my wife and three children put into the street, I wrote those letters.
 Farley went on to explain that sew era1 weeks ago he had made plans fire department and go to New York city to get employment, but his wife, following her custom, had gone to collect the fire money herself, leaving him unable to go to New York to get job already promised him.
 Farley was not able to secure a bondsman and he went to jail in de- fault of $200. Judge Wilder held him for the February term of the Super for court.
 Farley wrote to Waldo c. Bryant, and John Taylor. manager for the Bryant Electric Co. signing the names of foremen, and asking for an ad- vance of $3 on his wages, which was given his son, the bearer of the forg- ed letters.
