ley to McLean's recent statement that the former on several occasions as- sured the latter of his support for the U. S. Senate, Is You Ie." Possibly, as McLean's statement was, taken in connection with previous assertions by the Senator, of practically the same uncomplimentary tenor, MT. Bulkeley considered the use of strong language justifiable
 Which will be generally credited |? Probably, the Mclean statement! A negative is always difficult of proof, which is a grave disadvantage for the Bulkeley case. On the other hand, there is an abundance of detail in the affirmative on McLean's case, which tends to give it credibility.
 It would not be strange if the Me- Lean statement should prove to be the turning point in the Senatorial contest. Even if it does not elect Mclean, it should at the least bring about a deadlock and the election of a dark horse" possibly Mr. Hill, but more likely some one selected by the so-called Hartford clique which, ac- cording to Sheriff Hawley, does not intend that he HilN shall ever become a member of the Senate. an intention evidently shared by certain Fairfield County Republicans who might easily be named.

WHITE STAR LINER BALTIC
 IN COLLISION IN MID-0CEAN One Man Lost in Sea When Baltic in Dense Fog Runs AfouI a Big Tank
 Steamer

buikheads and the doors that cut the vessel up into many water tight com partments were closed almost before the smash. A hole was torn in the Ralttc's bow and her passengers rush ed from their staterooms and berths in state of terror All the minor officers and stewards soon restored confidence to the frightened men and women and they were ordered back to their places while an investigation was started to discover how badly the Bal tic was injured.
 It was found she was taking some water through the hole in the bow but not enough to endanger her, so the pumps were started. A big canvas was stretched over the bow and the big hole temporarily patched up and thep the Baltic proceeded. By order of Captain Ranson an attempt was made to locate another steamer by wireless but none could be picked up. Finding that his injury was such that 1t did not interfere with the seaworthi- Eess of his ship. Captain Ranson pro- ceeded on his voyage, instructing the wireless operator to refrain from tell ing anyone he might pick up, about the accident The result was that 1t was not until the Baltic was off Fire Island that 1t became known that she had met with an accident. The Stan dard's captain said he would not need assistance and made his way toward his European port

The city of Memphis, Tenn, has had for about six months the commission form of government, and it is said to have been working satisfactorily. An attack in the courts upon the con- stitutionality of the act providing for the commission plan having been made. the Tennessee Supreme court has rendered a decision upholding the act. and saying:
 We think it proper in view of the wide range the argument has taken in this case, to here state that courts have nothing to do with the policy or wisdom of legislation. These are mat ters committed by the constitution solely to the discretion of the general assembly, and courts can not inter- fere with that discretion when a stat ute has been enacted in the form and with the ceremony prescribed by the constitution, and does not violate some provision of that instrument And in no case will a statute be de- clared void, unless the particular clause of the constitution which it is supposed to contravene be pointed out and the violation appear clearly be- yond reasonable doubt.
 This decision leaves the way clear for a fair test of the commission plan

AMMONIA PIPE
 SPRUNG A LEAK

An ammonia pipe connected with the cold storage plant of Mueller & Co, provision dealers at IA Congress street burst at o'clock Sunday morning and Dominick Guidice, a barber, who resides in apartments over the plant, was awakened by the fumes. He was able to get his wife and child out before any of them were overcome. Guidice summoned one of the teamsters employed by the company and he summoned Chemical Engine No. 1 to shut the valve that would stop the leak. The teamster was unable to tell the fire- men which valve to shut off. Capt Patrick Hammil went into the fumes wearing a smoke helmet and shut off one valve but that did not stop the leak. Manager Thomas McNamara, on arriving at the scene, gut the en- gineer at the plant Of the Hammond Beef Go. to shut off the leak. The engineer knew where the valve was and putting a wet cloth over his face he turned the valve with a monkey wrench.

T
 Now York, July 4-When the White Star liner Baltic reached quarantine today her pumps were going and her collision bulkheads were closed They had been that way for three days fol- lowing a smash in mid-ocean with tre big liner and oiltank steamer Stan dard. en route from Philadelphia to Copenhag gen. One man, a seaman of the Battles crew, was lost overheard. It is supposed that he was knocked from the deck by the impact and sank immediately.
 The collision was due to the dense fog that prevailed on Thursday when the Baltic was 800 miles east of the Ambrose Channel Light. She was bowling along at a good rate of speed and the lookout discerned a hulk of another steamer almost straight ahead. The alarm was given and Captain Ranson, who was on the bridge. sig. nailed the engine room and the big engines were reversed while the wheel was thrown all of the way over in aa endeavor to pass astern of the other ship. This could not be dons in time and the Baltic struck the big tanker a glancing blow which shook the pig White Star liner from stem to stern.
 AS the two vessels came together Captain Ranson threw over the big switch controlling the automatic ma chinery that manipulates the collision

TEDDY MEETS

Especial from United Press. ]

Oyster Bay, N. Y., July 2.-The three biggest men in Kansas, from the standpoint of insurgency, were closeted with Colonel Roosevelt at Sagamore Hill today. It was admit ted today's is the most important con- ference participated in by the former president since his return from Afri- ca and the result was expected to have a momentous effect on the com ing congressional campaign.
 The trio who journeyed here to participate in the deliberations of "insurgent day. were United States Senator Joseph L. Bristow; Congress- men Edmund H. Madison and Victor Murdock. They came down on the noon train and were driven at once to the mansion on the hill overlook ing the bay and the Sound, where they had luncheon with the Colonel

Congressman Hills speech at Burl- ington, Vt, was in defence of the Ald- rich tariff, and the substance of the deliverance was that 1t is better than its predecessors. It is not, however, the measure which MT. Hill, as a member of the House committee on Ways and Means, aided in construct ing; under Boss Aldrich, it's character was very materially changed in the Senate, and Speaker Cannon, in de- fiance of usage. did not allow Mir. Hill a voice as a conferee on the Senate changes. but appointed in his place the rankest "stand-patter" in the Sen- ate.
 Despite his endorsement of the Ald- rich tariff. MT. Hill evidently believes that it should be amended-in other words, he does not coincide with the Presidents assertion that it is 'the best ever" But he HilD would amend it by single schedules only, which is really the better way.

Insurgency in vermont-it Is diffi- cult to credit the statement. Yet II Is a fact that in the most rock-rtbbeo and copper fastened of radical Repub- lican States, the Progressives lacked hut three votes of success in nominat- ing their candidate for Governor When such a State entertains Insur- Eency in such strong force, 1t is clear that the cause is progressing rapidly and that dissatisfaction with the rule of wealth and privilege is not confined to the Middle West.

The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1910-07-05

You can beat Sam Fessenden) easier than I can''-is what Ex-Gov. Mclean alleges to have been said to him by Bulkeley. The principal point with Bulkeley was evidently to 'beat Sam. and he as evidently believed that Mclean could effect that desir- able purpose. His reason for hostil- ity to sam" does not appear, and perhaps does not at this late date matter. The fact Is that he was, according to Mclean, willing to put aside his own Senatorial aspirations in order to the more easily and sure ly sfbeat Sam" Fractional politics sometimes make strange bedfellows" as may be noted now when some of the more devoted followers of Sam notably the most devoted of all, Sheriff Hawley-are classed among the supporters for reelection of Sem ator Bulkeley, the man who was so very anxious to "beat Sam"

At present, as recently asserted by the Boston Traveller, the great effort of the trusts and the "malefactors of great wealth. is to make Roosevelt swallow Taft" The President is en- deavoring to aid them. As the Ex- President approached New York, a spasm of activity in fulfilment of the Roosevelt policies struck the Admins tration, practically the first of its kind It is very doubtful whether the wool can be pulled over the Ex-Pres- ident's eyes so easily. He was mot born yesterday" and he is of the in- Quiring Missourian type.
 Like the Boston Traveller, the Farm CT doubts the success of the attempt to entrap Roosevelt into supporting the Taft administration. He may not openly antagonize it. We are in- clined to believe that his position will be that best described as armed neutrality"

CLASSIC DERBY
WORTH S32,500
Great Race for Three-year=Olds
Hangs Up New Record
for Event.

EPSON DOWNS, England, June l.
The 1S1st derby. of $32, 500, for three
year-olds, distance about one mile and
a half, the classic of the English turf,
was won today by Mr.. Fairies Lem
berg. Sir John Thursby's G~reenback
was second and A. p. Cunliffe's Charles
O'Malley third. Lord Rosebery's Nell
Cow finished first. Fifteen horses
started.
From the start the ace was between
the four horses named, Lemberg will
ming by a neck in a position gained but
a few yards from the post.
Neil Cow behaved badly at the post,
delaying the start for ten minutes, but
the field finally got away in good
shape. Greenback settled down in the
lead, with the two favorites. Lemberg
and Neil Cow, second and fourth. re-
spectively. There was little change Of
positions until the horses were close
home, when Lemberg passed Green
back and maintained a bare lead to the
finish. Two lengths separated Green
back and Charles O'Malley. Neil Cow
was close up in the first flight.
The betting was Z to 4 against Lem
berg, 100 to 5 against Greenback and
SO to l against Charles O'Malley.
The time was 2 minutes 35 1-5 Sec
onds, which is a record for h derby.

MOTT WILL ASK
DRUMS ARREST IN
OVERLOOK PROBE
Former County Engineer Again
Disregards Order OF Chief
Justice Gummere.

The question of whether George f.
Drum, former county engineer, can be
forced to appear before the Overbrook
Appraisal Commission and give testi-
mony as to conditions existing at Over
brook during his term of office will
come squarely before Chief Justice
William S. Gummere or Saturday
morning, when an application will be
made by County Prosecutor Wilbur A.
Mott, or a representative Of his office,
to show cause why Drum should not
be adjudged in contempt of court.
Drum yesterday afternoon failed to
appear before the commission, despite
the fact that on last Friday he had
been served with a mandatory order
by Chief Justice Gummere to do so.
Yesterday the chief Justice sat with
the commission, but after waiting
twenty minutes for Drum to appear
left after a consultation with the mem
bers of the commission and Prosecutor
Mott, at which the action to be taken
on Saturday was decided upon.
1t is probable that on Saturday the
chief justice will cause an order to be
issued directing Drum to appear before
him to show cause why he should not
be adjudged in contempt. failure to
obey this order will result in the is-
suanc Of an order for his arrest.

BLOOMFIELD HAS
PLAN TO ABOLISH
GRADE-CROSS|NGS
Lackawanna Railroad to Be
Asked to Raise andsLOwer
Its Tracks.

Grade crossings of the Lackawanna
road in Bloomfield and Watsescing are
to be eliminated. At a meeting Of the
Bloomfield Town Council last night
Town Attorney Van LEW was au-
thorized to prepare an agreement with
h railroad company. which shall pro-
vide for the doing away OF the death
crossings.
The matter will be finally threshed
out and agreed on at the nextemeeting
of the Town Council on June Z. Mean
while the town attorney will prepare
the necessary papers. agreements, or
dinances and contracts o final &C.
ton Engineer Baechlin will assist
him in his work. Within a short time
the contract, as we'll as h accom-
panying plans, will be open for inspec-
ton to the public.
1t was one of the most important
meetings held by the Town Council In
some time, and the citizens are 1ubilant
at the prospect of the abolition Of the
grande crossing evil. A resolution was
read which was adopted by the COM
mittee on railroad interests Of the
Board of Trade, and also by the citi-
zens Of Watsessing, approving of the
proposed contract and urging all haste
in the matter. Mayor Sutphen said
hat no delay would be brooked.
While the matter of expense Is yet
to be settled it is probable that an
amicable arrangement will be made
by which the greater proportion will be
borne by the railroad, the town and
the company dividing equally the prop
erty damage and the railroad prac-
tically all of the expense of ~elevattne
and depressing the tracks. Where their
tracks are affected the Public Service
Railway Company will be asked to
share in the cost of the work.
The improvements will include the
depressing of the tracks through
Watsessing to a point midway between
that section and Bloomfield proper and
the elevation of the tracks at Glenwood
avenue and at Washington street, thus
doing away with the dangerous grade
crossings at those two ~thoroughfares,
as well as at Arlington avenue and
Watsessing avenue. Orange street and
Willow street. Handsome and modern
stations will replace the unsightly ones
now in use at Watsessing and at Glen
wood avenue. The latter station will
be located a short distance above the
present one.
A street to be known as Lackawanna
place will run from Glenwood avenue
to Washington street. The bridges over
Clenwood avenue and washington
street will be constructed of steel and
concrete, with wide sidewalks ant
roadways beneath.
Mechanic street will not be entirely
vacated, as was first Intended. Tit
work will be commenced within q short
time after the contract is signed, ano
II is thought that 1t will take a year
to complete the work.
