TUMULT IN GENEVA
 PEACE CONGRESS-

Geneva, Sept. 26-Great tumult and
 a display of much temper marked yes
 terday's session of the international Peace Congress. The proceedings be-
 came at one moment so. decidedly
 stormy that one of the speakers was
 compelled to leave the platform.
 Questions connected with Morocco
 and Tripoli occupied the attention of
 the congress, and the criticism by Dr.
 Gobat, president of the International
 Peace Bureau, of Germany'S attitude
 in Morocco brought the German dele gates to their feet in heated protest Dr. Gobat was obliged to make a semi apology, and to assure them that he did not intend to infer that either the German government or the German nation was responsible for bringing war so close. The prevailing chauWin- ism of Europe he said, was responsl- bIe for that crisis Representatives of the French Chris tan Society of Peace said they thought some of ethe blame for the crisis might
 be attached to France for intervening in Morocco.
 This caused another uprOar and the factions were unable to reconcile the1i differences so the subject was referred to 2 committee, which is to try tc produce a formula which will not of- fend either side.
 When the Italian adventure in TIT l poli was preached in the discussion such an uproar arose that the speak- CT was obliged to suspend hls re ! marks

FIRST THINGS

The first meeting of the Washing ton National Monument Society, or ganizedrfor the purpose of erecting a national memorial to the first Presi- def4t in the capital city, was held in 1lle city hall at Washington seventy nine years ago today John Marshall the famous Chief Justice of the United States was the first president of the society. On his death ex-president James Madison became his successor. Since then the President of the United States has beenE ex-officio president
 the society, which is still in ex- istence. The foundation of the mon ument was laid in 184s and by 1859 the society had collected sufficient funds to carry the shaft to height of 156 feet. During the civil war and reconstruction the project Jagged, but in 1876 Congress provided for the com pletion of the memorial. and in 1884 the cap stone was set in position on the highest monument in the world. The total cost was $1, 300, 000- The total height above the ground Is 555 feet

PROBING DEATH
 OF MAJ. AFNEELEY.

Boston, Sept 26-FoIlowing word from an Albany, N Y, undertaken of his finding a three inch gash on the head of Major Frank A. McNeeley, a prominent military officer of Albany, who was found dead in the Thorndylxe, a small West End Hotel, local police, to-day, began an investigation of the case The body was found in a room with the windows closed and gas flow ing from a jet. The medical exam1n- CT reported it a case of suicide.

 The proposition also sheds consid- erabIe light on the comm liza tion'' of the game in the right direc- ton. Club owners who have invested thousands in parks and teams are no more willing to entrust their interests to >.booze fighters than are railroad corporation or any other style of ma g. nate

THE JESTER

Our esteemed conternpor- ary, The Bridgeport Evening Post, was a coura genus ad- vocate of a great debt, and q swollen mayor. Tkc Post likes to follow big men, which is another war of say .ng that our contemporary alInifes very rich men.
 Correspondingly, our con temporary does not admire the plain people and it says So. frankly.
 The doubts which it has regarding the political judg- ment and capacity of the or dinary citizen are perhaps predicated upon the circum- stance that some citizens read the Post, the presump- ton being that one who will do that has something the matter with his think tank as MT. Dooley puts it.
 But the evidence is not sufficient Many serious minded people go to the nj c k e l o d e 0 n, after the weighty duties of the day are done, not for instruction, but for anu usement.>
 Every play must have it's comedian, and a newspaper that makes itself a merry jest will never lack subscrib- CTS.
 Says the Post in it's issue of yesterday:
 "The program was too
 moInentous for the av-
 craze. voter, pulled and
 hauled by political pre-
 judice, to digest and
 thoroughly dissect in an
 impartial nlanner.''
 An insult one is tempted to say. Not an insult, it seems, upon maturer thought, but the clown $ jest upon a topic to which he brings the thought of an intellectual buffoon.
 The people of Bridgeport know what. they are about. They know the difference between debt and no debt.
 Against the proposition to create $1, 100000 of debt for sewers, 533 more electors voted than Mayor Wilson had when he was elected.
 The Post has a great ad- nairation for the voters who elected Mayor Wilson.
 It has none at all for as many as that and 533 more who voted against the sewer bonds,w proves that the Post is the joker of journal ism,a thoughtlesss comedian of the pen, a journalistic sidesplitter whose function if is to make men laugh themselves sick.

REPUBLICANS FOR WILSON.

 Thousands of Progressive Republi- cans will vote for the Democratic nominee for the presidency in the opinion of Rudolph Spreckels of San Francisco close friend of Senator La Toilette and long prominent in the Re publican party of California.
 -I have given many years of my time and support to the progressive Republican cause and to honest effort to eliminate political bosses and bring about the establishment of a just and truly representative government. and shall continue to make that fight with in my party; but feel it my duty to support Gov Wilson at the coming g election, believing it to be the only proper course left open for one who is sincerely interested in the establish ment of progressive legislation in our nation at the earliest moment.
 To-day I held a conference with Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, who stands out as the foremost figure in this nation as a protector of the lives and health Tof our children, and he informs me that he is opposed to the election of either President Taft or Theodore Roosevelt because both failed during g their administration to properly sup port the fight against the rich n1anu- facturers of harmful foods and drugs.
