COODHART HITS
 STATE POLICE
Production of Bridgeport Bank
 Journal in Cattle Case Results in Rumor of Perjury Charge

Arguments of somewhat sensa- ,tional nature delivered by Attorney Jacob P. Goodhart, who Is defend Ing Harry Caplan, arrested on a charge of cattle stealing in Cheshire. featured the close of the case in the criminal side of the New Haven Su- perior court yesterday afternoon. The arguments were marked by an attack on the State police and on Constable Coleman, The attorneys attack on the. State police involved the work of Officer Downey, who was instrument tai in Caplan's arrest It was brought out in the evidence that Downey, when visiting Caplan's home the night before the latter's arrest, took down notes which covered many sheets of paper. When the State policeman ap- peared yesterday he stated he did not have the original notes but that he had taken copy of them. The att. torney stated that this alone indicat- ed prejudice. The counsel for the de- fense then brought out the fact that Constable Coleman, who placed Cap dan under arrest. Is a nephew of the Coleman who lost the cattle; also that Attorney Coleman, who originally ap- peared against the prisoner was nephew of Coleman, the farmer who was victim of the robbery.

 the States attorney, caused an em- barrassing half hour for Carl Potas- chnik, witness introduced by the defense in connection with Harry Caplan's effort to prove an alibi, and 1t was rumored about the States Att torney's office yesterday afternoon that a bench warrant might be asked from Judge Bennett, to be served on Potaschnik on allegations of perjury. Potaschnik stated on the stand that he arrived in Bridgeport on Monday, the 18th at 2 o'clock. His testimony as to the time could not be shaken until the State introduced a photo graph of the Bridgeport Savings bank journal This was introduced by the State to prove that the man had been at the bank at II o'clock on the Monday in question. having some business with the bank
 It had been expected that the case would be immediately called to a close and sent to the jury, but after a re- cess Judge Bennett announced that in view of the fact that the rest of the arguments would take some time the case would be continued until today.

The National Progressive Repub- lican League. organized at Washing ton on Monday. started out with an imposing list of officers and members, and with a really progressive platform Generally speaking. the platform pre- sents the principles which are advo- cated by the E'roRressives or "Insur- gents. in Congress- and which are very popular throughout the Middle West and are very far from weak even in New England.
 IL Is a Republican movement, an attempt to reform the Republican party from within, which is pretty big task but not impossible of accom- plishment. Probably. the main pur- pose Of the new organization Is to capture control of the party in 1912, or at least to exercise a material in- fluence upon the selection of Presi- dental candidates. It may succeed. for the popular tendency is toward Progressfveness. But should the standpatters win in 1912, what then ? VIII the National Progressive Re- publican League. in that event nom- inate an independent ticket. perhaps with Ex-President Roosevelt at it's head? He is not yet a member of the league though invited to join.
 The new situation Is likely to awaken apprehensions as to the future among the regular" leaders. for 1t snows clearly that the Progressives are in deadly earnest

TERRY PLACE TO
 BETHANY CHAPEL

The Bridgeport & Danbury trolley line which Is in apparent course or construction. so far as the procure ment of rails makes to that end asks tbe Board of Aldermen for permission to beEin its tracks at the terminai of the Connecticut Company. at Terry Place on North Main street.
 The Connecticut Company asks the I<exislature for permission to extend its tracks from Terry Place to Beth any Chapel
 If both requests are granted. there win be two sets of tracks from Terry Place to Bethany Chapel. That the population between these two points is hardly large enough to need dou- bline-up of trolley facilities will not be denied Nor would the general vehicular traffic be likely to approve the encumbering of the roadway with two sets of tracks.
 1t Ia an unavoidable conclusion that there should not be two sets of tracks upon the roadway between these two points But which?
 AS the Bridgeport & Danbury line win not come further than Terry Place into the city. and its passengers will be compelled to transfer to the Connecticut CO. line in order to reach the centre of the city, it is difficult to see. why the transfer cannot be made as we'll at Bethany Chapel as at Terry Place. and the roadway be thus saved from the burden and in- convenience. to say nothing of danger to general vehicular traffic. of two sets of tracks.
 If. through agreement between the two companies. or action by the Gen. ernl Assembly. the Bridgeport & Dan- bury cars could run over the Connec- ticut Companys tracks to the centre of the city. only one set of tracks to Bethany Chapel would be needed. and the travelinE public would be bene- fitted by the non-necessity of changing cars. Such a requirement. of mutual uss of tracks prevails in some other cities Why not here?
 But. whether or not such a require ment be made. there should be but one set of tracks from Terry Place to Bethany Chapel.

TUGBOAT MASTERS
 IN FEDERAL COURT
Are Charged With Dumping Refuse
 in Bridgeport Harbor.

Henry Schulteiss and William Smith, masters of tugboats which op- crate in the harbor at Bridgeport, were arraigned before Judge p'ett Tn the district court of the United States Monday, on bench warrants based on informa tions which charged them with violating the harbor regulations prescribed by the secretary of war. They were each released under a bond of $500 furnished by Joseph Schietinger for appearance.
 The information against Schulteiss contains two counts One count charges that as master of the tug boat R. N, Henderson he lowed cer- tain scows and placed the scows so that refuse matter. largely mud, was deposited in the channel of the har- bor. The second count charges him

It thus appears that Cannonism will not be followed by Clarkism. The Demo- cratic Speaker will not be enabled to pack committees for or against meas uress according to his personal judg- ment. He will. practically. be lim- ated to the duties actually pertaining to his office-that Is. those connected with the presiding function. Thus 1s one Of the promises of the Demo- cratic campaign fulfilled.
