BUCKINGHAM VETOES ,. NORTH AVE. WIDENING
Says Trees Would Have to be Cut Down and That Appearance of Street Would
 be Injured

Mayor Buckingham today vetoed the North avenue widening project which was recently adopted by the Common Council by vote of 12 to 10. The aldermen voted to grant the petition to set back the curb three feet on each side of the thoroughfare from Main street to Whitney avenue.
 Here is Mayor Buckingham's veto: To the Honorable Common Council of
 the City of Bridgeport,
 Gentlemen:
 I hereby return without my ap- honorable body on November 6, 1911, ordering the widening of the roadway of North avenue, from Main street, easterly to Whitney avenue.
 A public hearing was duly held De- fore your honorable body as to the necessity of widening North avenue, in accordance with a petition upon which the report of your Committee on Streets and Sidewalks, and the res olution> adopted by your honorable body was based At that hearing a very large majority of the residents and property owners, adjacent to that portion of the street proposed to be widened, appeared in opposition to the
 proposed widening of the street, and a comparatively small number in la vor of the same.
 North avenue, at the point where the widening is proposed, is now for F ty feet in width and is wider than State street, Fairfield avenue and Main street at their most congested points There is no place of business on North avenue where the widening is proposed; it is purely a. residential

street. The street is not used any more than the ordinary main thor oughfare on the outskirts of the city, and is not used to such an extent as to require any greater width than it now has. If widened, a number of fine trees must be cut down, and this, in my judgment, would detract from the beauty of the street, and would depreciate the value of abutting prop erty.
 The most important feature to be considered by you as representatives, of the city, is that the widening stops at Whitney avenue instead of continu- ing to the railroad at Lindley street, making an abrupt difference in width which would be dangerous to traffic. Furthermore this would spoil the gen- eral unbroken contour of the street, thereby injuring rather than proving cd advantage to the appearance of the street.
 The lines of no street should be changed unless some advantage is to be thereby gained either to the city Or to the property owners commen- suretn with the amount of money that will necessarily be expended in the changing of these lines The ex- pense in this instance would be large cially to the people owning property On the street with no corresponding advantage.
 For the foregoing reasons with hold my approval from the said reso1u- tion.
 Respectfully submitted this 18th day of November, 1911 Mayor.

COAL PEDDLERS DO
 NOT LIKE NEW, LAW.

Local coal peddlers are indignant at the action of the new restrictions which have been placed upon them in regard to selling coal by weight They claim the. action was taken as re- suit of spite by the big dealers.
 Under the law which was favored by Senator Archibald McNeil Jr. at the last legislature, pedd1ers of vege- tables and other supplies are not re- stricted but coal vendors are the ones picked out as the victims of legisla- tion, they claim.
 The matter was tl1reshed out at a meeting of the small dealers held last night at the home of Philip Carelik, 361 Olive street. MT. Carelik said the peddlers distribute one ton of coal in 20 places, sometimes climbing four or five flights of stairs. The best they can do in one day is to sell one ton or perhaps one and one-quar- ter tons. This is good average for about s3 or $350 a day.
 Under the new law the dealer must make out three tickets with each bas- ket of coal sold. These tickets speci- fy the weight of the coal and the price paid. One of the tickets is sup posed to go o-to the dealer, the pur- chaser keeps one, and the dealers say they don't know what becomes of the third. They are also opposed to the idea of writing the tickets because of the fact that many of the small deal- CTS cannot write.

MAYOR SIGNS
 SEWER PLAN -

Mayor Buckingham just before noon today signed the resolution adopted by the Common Council at its last meeting calliiE for the con- structinn of two trunk sewers, one in the Brooklawn district, the other in the East End, in conformity with the modified Herring plan, so called.
 The mayor stated in signing this resolution he did not. regard his ac- ton as committing the city to the Herring scheme of sewage, for these two trunk sewers are independent of the double system of sewers used un- der the entire plan of Engineer Her. ing.
 The problem of further carrying out the Herring plan will have to be met by the succeeding administra- tions as the construction of new sew CTS becomes necessary.

!. (Cont:nued from Page 1.)

CSOHt1uueu rom PdSe l.1 tons of garbage remains uncollected on New York's streets. The fact that the weather is very cold is the only thing, physicians say, that has pre- vented an epidemic. More than 5000 pounds of carbolic provender has been scattered over the East Side streets by the health authorities.
 Following a walking tour through the garbage piled streets of the lower East Side, today, Mayor Gaynor de- clared there would be no compromise or discussion of compromise with the striking garbage men. He declared that the entire department would be reorganized, no matter how long it took
 The Mayors defiance was received with indignation by the strike lead CTS.
 We have nothing to do with the strikebreakers, ;" declared Gaynor 'The men who quit are off the city's roll for all time. We will reorganize the department no matter how long it takes. There will be no militia called out. The police can handle. the situa- tiOn.'

SUCCESSFUL FISHING PARTY

A party of six Ocala gentlemen.
among whom we only heard mentioned
the name OF Mr.. Sidney Halle, the pop
ular agent for the s. a. l. Railway.
and Mr.. John Moore, the efficient man
ager OF the mail order department OF
Carmichael & Son Co, went fishing
yesterday at Heather Island. on the
Oklawaha river. The party caught
about 200 fish. but Sid Halle didn't get
any OF them. Mr.. Halle fished earnest
ly till mid afternoon without a bite.
He then spied a grasshopper on a rush
beside the stream and got out of the
boat TO capture the insect, having
heard they We're wonderful trout bait.
He ran the hopper several miles and
was all out of breath but returned
triumphant, placed him-that is the
hopper and not the triumphant-on
his hook and threw his line into the
water. After fishing several hours
without catching a bite, he saw the
reason-the darned grasshopper had
slipped around the shank Of the hook
and worked his way up the line and
was calmly sitting on the cork. Now
this is no fish story. but cold facts, for
Mr.. Halle is a temperate and temper
ance man.

4 JAIL DELIVERY

There were four state prisoners in
the city jail this morning for transfer.
They gave a darkey boy by the name
of Sam. about ten years OF age. some
money to go UP town and get some
crackers and a file. The boy did as ne
was requested and the prisoners lib
Grated themselves. This happened
just before noon. Chief Chambers was
in the clerks office about 1880. when
the negro boy came in and asked Mr..
III. c. Sistrunk to change SIS bill.
which Mr.. Sistrunk did About noon
a deputy appeared for the prisoners TO
take them to Gainesville. The mar
shall was absent just then and during
this time the deputy went down 10 the
county Jail for two other prisoners
and the marshal requested Mr.. Chamb-
ers TO open the door and let the dep
uty have the men. Mr.. Chambers went
TO the jail 10 order the prisoners to get
ready, but there was no response. He
then went in and looked all around but
they Were gone. He went through the
building and onto the roof. but with
no better results. Mr.. Chambers found
the little darkey boy and questioned
him, but he denied getting anything
but crackers for the prisoners. The
boy was arrested and locked up. and
after being in jail a short while he
confessed, saying that he bought the
file for the men. The men filed their
way out OF the cell. which is not any
too secure and calmly walked OF. Mrs
c. E. Winston saw one OF them cross
ing the lot and thought at the time
that he looked suspicious The sher-
iff office is looking for them and will
more than likely round them up. There
is always a reward OF 500 for captur-
ing state prisoners who have escaped
The boy locked up in the Jail yelled
all afternoon like he was being muir
