M'NEIL WAS
 NOT SNUBBED
 BY DELEGATION
Himself Objected to Task of Nominating Baldwin for
 Which He Was Named At His Suggestion Commit tee Was Named to Ascer- tain Wishes of Governor Baldwin.

Senator Archibald McNeil. IT,, dele gate to the national convention at Bal timore, was placed in the unpleasant light of forcing himself to positions of prominence in the Connecticut delega- tion by the publication of a .aislead- ing article in the Bridgeport Telegram of today.
 It was represented that Senator Me- Neil had been proposed to offer the name of Governor Baldwin to the na- tiOnal convention as the Presidential candidate, and that at the mention of McNeil's name. bitter opposition de- veloped on the ground that there were already too many honors for the dele gate from Bridgeport.
 As 8 matter of fact, the only ob- lection to the naming of Senator Mc- Neil for the position was from Sena- tor McNeil himself, who believed the delegation should first consult the wishes of Governor Baldwin. And the only reason that still further hon. ors were not bestowed upoa him were that he asked to be excused.
 The proposition to select Senator McNeil came from Mayor Joseph M. Holloran of New Britain, at the meet ing of the Connecticut delegation at the Stratfield yesterday.
 Mayor Holloran suggested the wis dom of selecting before adjournment a delegate to whom that duty should be assigned. He said he had sery ed in the Senate with Senator McNeiL ap- preciated his rec ord and his oratorical abilities, and deemed him just the man for the place.
 Mayor Mahan of New London who served in the Legislature with the Bridgeport Senator, echoed the trib- YfA Nf Mo Inn n C0id he believed Senator McNell admirably qualified for the place. Others spoke along the same fine. and not a single objection was offered, until Senator McNeil himself took the floor.
 He said he believed it would be only fair to defer action along this lin: until the Governor could he consult ed. He said the Governor might have a personal preference. and by way o1 suggestion said that 1t might please His Excellency to have the nomination made by man of the stamp of Dean Rogers of the Yale Law Schcol, whe could readily gain the flo<r az an al ternate. x,
 Then Senator McNeil offered . mo- ton that committee should be ap- pointed to wait upon the~Governor te that end. This motion prevailed unan- imously. Chairman Kennedy then named as a committee to seek the Governors advice on the matter, Dele gates Holloran, Comstock and Ma. han.
 Senator McNeil was mentioned fol other honorary positions, but he fore. stalled any action along these lines by announcing that he felt sufficient ly complimented by election to mem belship in the delegation, and that he preferred the honors should go else where. But he added that if there was any work to be done he would be only too glad to do 1t.
 Chairman Kennedy took him at his word, and after the honorary offices had been disposed of, he placed Sen ator McNeil at the head of the only working committee of the delegation having to do with transportation, hote accommodations. etc.

800 DOG OWNERS FAILED TO COMPLY.

There were about 500 fewer dog taxes paid this year than last. Town Clerk William Thomas said today that over 3,20o dog owners paid in their license fees during the month of April this year whereas 3.700 registered last year. However, there will prob ahIv he a similar number before the end of the present month as many of the dog owners will pay the addition al assessment of $1 rather than to have their pets killed.
