FULL RELIEF FOR EAST SIDE IN MEASURES
 TAKEN BY THE COUNCIL
Flats at Head of River to Be Dredged of Accumulated Deposits Until Covered With Water at Low Tide Sewers to Be Extended Further Down River-Mil Rights to Berkshire Pond to Be Acquired

The Common Council took steps last night, that will go far to relieve the conditions in the East Side, which have proved so annoying to property owners during the summer.
 These measures, which have been approved by the Council, in accord Rnce with the terms of the special message from Mayor Buckingham. Rre as follows:
 The flats are to be dredged to ap- proximately four feet below average low tide, between lines extended from The west bank of the PeQuonnock River, through the dock log of the Berkshire coal yard on the north and through the boundary line of the Mo kenzie property, on the south The hats between these two lines will be fleaned of their accumulated deposits lnd lowered until they will be con- ftantly covered by water.
 Secondly, the sewers are to be brought further down the river and lxtended so that they will always fmpty under water.
 Thirdly. the Harbor Committee has been instructed to purchase the mill lights in Berkshire Pond of the own- fr, at a cost not to exceed s$25, ,000, tubject to the approval of the Com mon Council.
 When the latter project is carried but the pond will be kept always full
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1911-10-17

of water. and the nuisance of exposed flats will be eliminated. But upon suitable occasions the water in the pond may be used to flush out the upper end of the river.
 Mayor Buckingham said today: These improvements will be carried out at a cost that should not exceed $30,000. The Berkshire Pond will be a playground for our young people affording a convenient place for skat- ing and other winter sports. Estab- lished as a. lake, and kept at, a per manent level it will adorn the neigh borhood all about it, and will soon create an increase in land values, which will return to the city in reve- nue from taxation an excellent profit on it's investment.
 'On the other hand the continual ton of the nuisance would subject the city to possible penalties from suits threatened, or brought, by owners of property. The depreciation of prop erty values would have decreased the revenue from taxation
 The only evil remaining to be dealt with is the garbage plant itself. The plant is being reconstructed, and the owners claim they have made im- provements which will prevent odors escaping and becoming a nuisance. If the claim is unsound the plant will be permanently closed, by the abro- gation of the contract, and this will give relief from the so called over land odorS

 AFTERNOON POLOGROUNDS

three pitched balls. Doyle grounded out to Davis, unassisted, Doyle hit. ting the first ball pitched directly in. to the first baseman's hands. Snod- grass famed. No hits, no runs, nc errors.
 Coombs disposed of the first three Giant batters with eight pitched balls putting his first one over on each man.
 SECOND INNING.
 Athletics-Baker got rousing hand as he came up in the second inning and, in response, took a squint at the right field fence at the polo grounds which is considerably higher than at Philadelphia. His effort, however was grounder to Doyle; who made 8 pretty stop and throw and Baker was out. Murphy lined to Herzog, who brought the crowd to it's feet with a sensational catch following a running jump at the ball. It was one of the best stops of the series. Davis poked a long fly out to Snodgrass, in deep center, which Snodgrass captured. Nc runs, no hits, no errors.
 Giants-Murray flew out to Lord who came over into center to pull down the ball. Merkle tried to speed it up when he hit to Barry but the latter's throw to Davis nipped him by yards. Herzog famed. No runs, no hits, no errors.
 THIRD INNING.
 Athletics-Barry started the ses- sion with a clean single to left and on the first ball pitched Barry stole second. Lapp lined to Doyle, who Barry. It was the first double play of the series, and nipped in the. bud the first rally of the game. Co6mbs flew out to Doyle, after fouling off three throws. No runs, one hit, no errors.
 suited in his flying out to Murphy, after he had landed on the first ball pitched. Meyers singled through Baker, the hit being too hot for the latter to handle. With one out and the chief perched on the first sack Matty walked out and with his wagon tongue, singled to right sending the to the third corner, with time to spare It was splendid working out of the hit and run play. DeYore, oozing anxiety, forced Matty, Barry to Collins, Meyers scoring on the play. Devore attempted to steal but was caAght, Lapp to Barry. One run. two hits. no errors.
 FOURTH INNING. M
 Athletics flied out to Snod- grass. OiuIiiS popPCu oif easy ny to Fletcher. Collins beat out, by an inch, an infield hit to Herzog. With yesterdays combination of two down and Collins on the baseline, Baker at the bat, the latter swung at the bail and Collins made desperate dash for second and was called safe by Umpire Connqlly, the decision being greeted by a storm of misses. Meyers throw went through but was a trifie late Matty jumped high and pulled down a nasty bounder, throwing out Baker at first and cutting off what looked like a hit. No runs, one hit, no errors.
 Giants-Doyls was thrown out by Collins to Davis. after fouling off three good ones. Snodgrass hit the first ball pitched for high fly to Lord. Murray flew ,out to Murphy. No runs, no hits, no errors.

Graham. Fer guson testified that his wife engaged the principal of Stamford school te teach Graham and also suggested that the guide be sent to Europe to com plete his education. They didn't know how to educate people in this country Mrs. Ferguson is reported to have said.

The situation grows more onnfnous daily. In the absence of reliable fu- formation, the widest rurnors are ct1r- rent and the unrest among the people IS increasing rapidly. One report that may have the most serious conse- quence is that the rebellion has been caused by the Japanese intrieues mere IS good reason to believe that the story originated from sovernnent sources and is being circulated for the purpose of alternating popular sym pathy from the rebels
 The acceptance of the vice rova1tv or Human and Hu Peh by Yuan shf ka1 has not had the quieting effect that was looked for. The people sea in 1t merely a successful attempt on the part of the government to seduce their popular hero and the vice-roy IS pelng bitterly attacked as a traitor to his countrymen.
 The government seems at last to ba awakening from the stupor fin which the nrst news of the outbreak pIunr- ed it. Twenty-four troop trains have left Plaitingfu.

William ConnOrs, Q middle aged man who has been arrested several times on various charges, is held at police headquarters today on suspicion of being the incendiary who set fire at 2:30 this morning to the home of Her man F. Gill on Hough avenue. But Tor the timely discovery of the fire. which started in the cellar, the house would have been burned down, and its occupants probably would have perished in the flames.
 Gill hasGknOwn COnnors for years. Some hidden enmity is ascribed as the motive for the attempt Connors was arrested early this morning, while sneaking away from the scene of the attempt and apparently trying to hide himself
 At 2:30 this morning Gill was awak- ened by the pungent odor of smoke. He went into the bathroom of his house and looked out the window. He was startled to see in the windows of the next house, the reflection of a blaze in his own cellar.
 Clad only in his night clothes, MT. Gill rushed down stairs. He found a roaring little fire in progress in the cellar. Fortunately water was plenti- full and a few pailsfu1 administered in time, extinguished the blaze.
 Investigation then showed that the fire was plainly the work of an in- cef1diary who first gathered together a quantity of paper, wood, shavings. etc, then soaked the mass with kerosine and set it on fire.
 Mir Gill hastily clad himself and ran out doors. He immediately dis cerned the figure of Connors, whom he Knew well, skulking about the neigh borhood Connors walked rapidly down the street. and MT. Gill followed.
