ONE DEAD, TWO
DYING, FROM
SPOTTED FEVER

Laid low by the ravages of the
dread scourge, spotted fever, one
member of the family of Dominic
Galuzzo, 15S Howe street, is dead,
and two others are in critical con-
dition at the Bridgeport hospital to-
day. g
Frank, aged 4, died at The hospital
after midnight this morning. He was
transferred from the Howe street
home late yesterday, upon the rec
ommendation of DR.. j. w. Gerber,
the family physician.
Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Josephine
Galuzzo, the mother, and James, aged
8. were taken to the hospital in the
cream and a preparation of tomato
paste at the same meal, and physl-
clans at first suspected their condi-
ton was due to ptomaine poisoning.
The mother and son were critically
i'll. The father who remained at
home with two other children, saw
that Frank was ailing yesterday, and
he called Dr. Gerber who at noon
found him dangerously i'll. Il
The nature of the disease was not
determined until an autopsy at the
Bridgeport hospital disclosed the lit
tie victims ailment. The mother and
other son were promptly segregated
from the other patients and strict
watch was exercised to prevent the
disease from spreading.
The hospital authorities communi-
Gated with the health department
which took prompt steps to fumi-
GaluzZo family lives in a thickly
populated neighborhood, and strict
vigilance is maintained to safeguard
the other residents of the street

ON PET PROJECT
Especial from United Press.)

New London. May 12.-Emphati-
cally predicting the success of agita-
ton for a million dollar appropria-
ton for state development of New
London harbor, Senator Bryan f.
Mahan, today, stated it was no pleas
ant dream he and his fellow boosters
were pursuing
with New Jersey, New York and
Massachusetts,, not to mention foreign
states spending hundreds of millions
for harbor improvements, it's about
time Connecticut woke up. If there
was the slightest doubt in my mind
of the success of this movement for
a world harbor in New London, that
doubt was dispelled at the legisla-
tive hearing in Hartford, yesterday.
THE finest minds and the most
responsible persons in the state, rep
resenting every interest in Connecti-
cut arose in that meeting to stamp
their approval on the measure.
81 know there is talk Of economy.
And 1 have respect for the men who
want to save money to the state. But
these persons will forever ALLEVIATE the
best intentions of Connecticut if they
block this appropriation. The whole
state would benefit by the harbor i'm
provements in New London where
the greatest steamships in the world
will some day land their passengers
and freight.

MOTHERS DAY


Sunday Will be Mothers day,
The day of all the year
Which we should hold most sacred
For her we love so dear,
Remember she has thought of you
Each day of every year,
For mothers love ne'er ceases
As long as she is here.
And when at last she goes to rest
In that great wide beyond.
Remember she's your mother still.
And of her still be fond.
For she has toiled while you have
slept
To keep you free from care,
So remember her on Mothers day
And for her a flower wear.
Let flower on thy bosom rest
At least one day year,
For Mothers days most sacred
OF any in the year.
Let white be worn for those we mourn
And bright for those still living,
And thus We'll make this Mothers
day
a day of great thanksgiving.

BRYAN MAKES LIST OF
PRESIDENTIAL QUESTIONS.
Thirteen Queries for Each DEM
Ocratic Candidate.

| OMAHA, Neh., July 8.-William J.
Bryan wants to put every Democratic
candidate for the presidency upon rec
ord as to just what he does and does
not advocate, and he will appeal to
the country to arouse sufficient pub
lie sentiment to cause these candidates
to answer the following questions.
Do you favor a tariff for revenue
| only?
Do you favor free raw material and
the placing OF a revenue duty on only
manufactured goods?
Do you believe that in the revision
of the tariff the element of protection
should be given consideration?
Do you believe the three branches
of the government are coordinate,
| and that each should keep within Its
| constitutional sphere?
Do you approve of the recent Stand
| ard OIL decision wherein the Supreme
Court 'legislated" the word "unreason-
able" into the Sherman antitrust lawf
Do you favor the repeal of the GRIM
| inal clause of the antitrust law, or
believe Congress should make 1t clear
that all restraint OF trade Is unreason-
able?
Do you favor popular election, Of
senator's?
Do you favor, the income tax?
Do you believe It is the duty of the
American people to promise independ-
ence to the Philippine Islands immedi-
ately and give II to them in the same
way as 1t was given to the Cubans?
Do you believe in publicity of am
paign contributions
Are you willing that the source of
every nomination should be made pub
lie?
Do you favor the support of Stat
governments In all their rights?
Do you indorse the labor planks of
1908. strict regulation of railroads, the
Aldrich currency scheme, asset cur
rency In any form, establishment of a
central bank and a law compelling
banks to insure depositors?
Mr.. Bryan appeals, to the newspapers
to publish the list and to demand
that candidates state their position.
