Object of the Alienists' Society to Be
 Encouraged More Extensively.

At New Haven on Thursday at the annual meeting of the Connecticut So- ciety of Alienists a number of impor- tant matters were discussed pertain ing to the future plans of the society. It is understood on good authority that they intend to encourage twofold the work that for the past few years has gradually been gaining impetus for the discussion and promulgation of scien- tlhc principles and the application or the best methods for the treating of cases of mental or nervous disorders.
 That the movement has the hearty support of the leading citizens of the state is shown by the fact that the so- ciety admitted to it's honorary mem co-operation- is almost sure to bring success. They are Hon. James r. Walsh, Greenwich; Prof. Greame M. Hammond New York; Dr. G. A. Law Westport; Dr. F. II. Mayberry, East Hartford; Dr. T. D. Brothers, Hart ford; Hon. Costello Lippftt. Norwich; Judge Nelson J. Ayling, Norwich; Judge Michael c. Downs, Stamford; Hon. NJ. J. Holman, Saybrook; Judge Daniel B. Bradley, Jr.. Westport; Dr. Frederick Powers, Westport, and pr. James N. Brown, Westport.
 Organized Two Years Ago.
 The Connecticut Society of Alienists was organized two years ago. beginning with a somewhat meagre membership. Today, however, it stands with a list of members that embraces all the best known alienists in the state and reputation that is fast gaining much prominence throughout the east. The members are almost without exception in position to devote considerable time to scientific research, and it is expected that before the next annual meeting at least they will have accom- plished an incenceivable amount tow ards the discovery of a cure for those unfortunate to be suffering from either mental or nervous disorders. Their progress will be watched with interest, for it must be conceded that there is a great need for such as is shown by statistics compiled in the state and which show an alarming number of cases of persons afflicted with mental deran gementS.
 The object of the society is clearly defined in the first article of the by laws, which reads:
 The purpose of the society shall be to promote the welfare of those af- fiicted with mental and nervous dis eases in this state, to encourage the discussion and promulgation of scien- tific principles and the adoption and application of the most approved meth ods for the care and restoration of those mentally or nervously unbal- anced, whether in the incipient or more advanced stages.

THAMES RIVER BRIDGE
 CAN HAVE LIFT DRAW.
No Opposition to Plans for the New
 Bridqe.


 No remonstrance was made Friday afternoon at the public hearing held in the United States engineers office, New London, against the plans of the New Haven road for the construction of a bridge across the Thames river The hearing was simply a formaIity re- quired by the war deparmcent. There were present only about a dozen per sons who were interested in the con- struction of the new bridge.
 The meeting was called to order at o'clock by Harry Taylor, lieutenant colonel, corps of engineers. in charge of the engineers office in New London. Colonel Taylor explained that the hear ing was for the purpose of considering the plans submitted by the New Ha- ven road for the bridge. After a mo- one entered any objection, the meet ing was declared adjourned
 After the formal meeting several persons who were interested in the project inspected the plans of the bridge. which plans were explained by Chief Engineer Edward Gagel and W. H. Moore, engineer of bridges of the New Haven road In answer to question as to when work would be- gin on the new bridge, MT. Gagel vol unteered the information tha' in all probability the work would start as soon as possible.
 the new bridge. but it is probable that work will be started at once on these. The making of the plans will of course take considerable time. It is estimated that it will take about three years to complete the structure.
 Considerable curiosity has been man. ifestcd as to whether the new bridge would be higher or lower than the at the hearing when Mir. Moore said that the new bridge will be about six and a half feet higher than the old one.
 Torasidau+ A1avapda- T Csar,o,,baII of the New London Business Mems asso- citation inquired of MT Gagel whether it would be feasible to change the pres ent drawbridge into one of the lift change would be entirely feasible and would be done if the state or city de- cided to retain the structure as a high way bridge. Whether both bridges woudl be operated by one control sta tion would depend entirely on who owned the present bridge and whether such course would be economical or advisable. ''The new bridge" said Mir. Gagel, "iS similar to the Connecticut river bridge and is of the same width The lift type bridge is considered to be easier to manipulate than the draw, taking less time to open and shut. Such a bridge can be lifted to the height made necessary by masts of a vessel and can be lifted and lowered in about minute and a half"
 The plan submitted by the railroad company contemplates the construc- tion of piers for four tracks, but the construction at the present time, of the superstructure for the two south ern tracks only The center line of these tracks will be no feet north of the center line of the present bridge
 The plans shows q draw of the roller lift stype having one opening with a clear span of 15O feet between lenders at the narrowest part; the center of the opening being nearly in a line with the center ofh te east opening Of the present swing bridge.
