NELSON DRUNK SHOOTS WOMAN Only One of Four Shots
 Fired Took Effect  VICTIM HAD PUT
 ASSAILANT OUT OF
 HER LODGING HOUSE Not Believed Woman's Tn juries Are Fatal-NelsoD
 Uncommunicative

While under the effects of liquor and possessed with demoniacal frenzy over being dispossessed from his for mer lodgings, William Nelson, CT Knowlton. 40 years of age, formerly a teamster. returned to his old home, 36 Lexington avenue and after a heat ed argument with Mary Johnson, 5 years old. fired four bullets from 38 calibre revolver in an attempt to XIII shortly after II o'clock this morn ing. Only one of the shots took ef- rect and it is thought she will re- cover although in a critical condition from loss of blood
 Much mystery surrounds the events leading up to the shooting as Nelson retused to disclose to Capt Regan his reasons for the act other than the statement he was not treated right and no immediate witnesses nave as yet been found by the police to establish more definite motive None saw the first shot fired although Emma Jacklyn. 2S Day St., New Ha- ven. Mrs. Edith Griffin. g Lexington avenue and Arthur Pease, otherwise known as "Oaky Pease'' of 137 Lex lngton avenue are detained by the police as witnesses to the events inl- mediately succeeding the first shot.
 According to those living in the vii clnity of 56 Lexington avenue Know1- ton formerly resided with the Johnson woman on the second floor but as he refused to work and no payments be- ing made for his lodging she evicted him from her apartment Pease found him sleeping in the doorway of an adjoining saloon shortly before il to- day and Nelson left him at the John son woman's house. Latter shots were heard by officers Anton ard Gleason, on duty at Washington and Lexington avenues. Immediately afterwards Pease came running out of the alley way beside the house and told the officers of the shooting. Nelson was captured as they entered the prenlis- es and when taken on the upper floors where the woman was lying she i6en- tified him as her assailant.
 Efforts were made to staunch the flow of blood from a wound in the right side of the back and Dr. c. R. Pratt was calledsto attend the injured woman. It was found but one bullet had lodged in the flesh and this was later removed. It was proposed 10 re- move her to the hospital, but owing to loss of blood. weakened condition and the fact that she strenuously ob- jected to being taken from the room she was left under medical care where found. Nelson will be held upon a charge of assault with intent to kill. The parties are colored.

WILSON NOT AFRAID HE'LL
 BE ROBBED Voters Have Given Mandate and Convention Will ~
 Obey

The attention of Lynn W. Wilson was directed today to repeated threats that delegates elected in his favor would be alienated before the conven- tion
 He said: T take no stock in those stories. They appear to me to come from the store of falsehoods kept in stock by reckless writers of political rulnors
 My candidacy has received a ma Jority Of the Democratic vote, a ma ority of the Democratic districts, and majority of the delegates. I do not believe the public service corpor- atlons have money enough, nor the lobbyists cash and persuasion enough to take one of those delegates from me. They are not that kind of men. Thirty-five delegates have been elect ed in the understanding that they fa- vor my nomination. This number is likely to be added to in the conven- tion, rather than decreased.
 To rob me of the delegation from Bridgeport, which is the thing the newspapers assert will be done, would be equivalent to defeating the Demo cratic party in Fairfield county, for the indignation of the party voters would be great indeed.
 Their anger would be not at my defeat, but at the repudtation, by sub- terranean means, of an order which the Democratic voters have plainly and deliberately expressed at the ball. lot box

SCORES TAFT FOR ORDERING TROOPS
 TO NICARAGUA Senator Bacon Denounces High Handed Methods /
 of the President
Charges Taft's Interference
 to Favoritis1n to Ameri s can Financial Interests

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 31-Senator A. O. Bacon, of Georgia, today criticised President Taft for ordering American soldiers to Nicaragua. He denounced Taft's order as contrary to the con stitution'' and without any author ity of law
 "In my opinion, the sending of in fantry and armed sailors into Nicar- agua by the President, without au- thority from Congress, is absolutely in violation of the law, said Bacon. Ut is recognized that. under certain circumstances, small bodies of marines may be landed in a foreign country to protect American consulates, but that is very different from sending an army into a foreign country to take sides in a factional dispute. There is as much authority for the President to send 5000 soldiers there as to send 1000 or 5000 men into Nicaragua
 Eff such action is really necessary, then it is the duty of the President to report that matter to Congress and have Congress authorize the move ment That duty is vested in Con gress by the constitution and not given to the President. It is dan gerous power to be exercised by any one man and the constitution careful " QGnfeQ II 10 the Er9S1utHl diIu HI vested it in Congress alone.
 ''In Nicaragua have no doubt that the whole proceedings are in the in- terest of some American capitalists, who have loaned money to the exist ing government and who would lose their money should that government be overturned
 ssThe Senate has appointed an in- vestigating committete and the whole matter will be sifted to the bottom.
 Senator Bacon hinted that he knew of important witnesses who will be called before the Senate committee to substantiate the report that, the Nic- araguan embroglio is money fight between opposing financial interests.
 why did the President wait until after Congress adjourned before or dering the infantry to Nicaragua?' asked Senator Bacon, significantly. "Also, why did he subsequently coun-. ternnand his orders for the transfer of soldiers?
 'aThe conditions in Nicaragua were worse or at least no better. when the infantry orders were rescinded.
 Bacon declares that he believed ir- teresting disclosures will be made by the Investigating committee.

BIG TOURNAMENT
 SHOOT AT SEA SIDE
 GUN CLUB MONDAY

The sixth registered tournament of the Western Connecticut Trap Shoot ers' league will be held insa.this city on Labor Day, under the management of the Sea Side Gun club at their beautiful range off the Long HIT I-road. Elaborate preparations have been made for the entertainment of the 100 or more shooters and the Bridgeport boys propose to do things up in splen- did style.
 This is the second registered tourn- ament that the club has had the priv ilege to entertain, the first having talk en place last year. It is the final Shooters league for the seassn and much interest centers in the outcome as special league prizes are to be awarded to the winners.
 The local boys take pardonable pride in the natural beauty of their grounds and with recent improve ments, including the addition of an- other set of traps, it is expected the visitors will find much to praise. The prizes that are offered are valuable ones and attractive and will be ex- hibited in the club house. There will be much shooting in addition to the regular program because of the spe- cial events that have been arranged.
 Ample transportation from the end of the North Main street trolley line will be provided and one of the big features of the day will be a sheep roast. Interstate rules will govern the shoot.
 Much interest is taken in the spe- cial league trophy contests. Chamber lain of New Haven, leads in the con- test for the highest score for the ser- ies of six tournaments and Gregory of Danbury is second. The Du Pont- Connecticut amateur trophy will be warmly contested The high average winner at each tournament of the series of six has been given a "leg'', and the amateur making the greatest number of legs gets the trophy. All ties are to be shot off at the last tournament at 50 targets The win- ners to date are Charles Sherwood, at Bethel tournament; w. Gregory at Long Hill tournament; A. L.. Chamber lain at Waterbury tournament, l.. c. Wilson at New Haven tournament and L. Bradley at Danbury tournament.
 The Western Cartridge Co, gives a gold watch fob as a trophy for the greatest number of high scores made by the individual in the seasons team races. The score up to date is Cham- berlain, 2; Wilson 1 Daley and Sherwood l. For the longest straight run during the six tournaments a low ing cup is given by the Liberty Cart ridge Go, and l.. C.. Lyon, Bridge port has the run at present time, hav- ing shot 66 birds, one after the oth- CT.

DEMOCRATS POINT
 TO ASSOCIATION OF
 TRUSTS AND TEDDY

New York. Aug. s1.-Democr campaign managers admitted, today, that they hope to develop that Col. Roosevelt's campaign in 1904 was heavily financed by the trusts when the Senatorial investigation is resun- ed in Washington. They hope to make the opening wedge by having a contribution of S10,000 made by the steel trust, inquired into. The record of this contribution is contained in the Democratic campaign text book just issued. the contribution being acknowledged by c. D. Duell, assist ant treasurer of the Republican rla- tional committee and E. T. Stotsbury, chairman of the finance committee StotSbury was also member of Mor- gan & Company.
 In the text book are contained long excerpts from the minutes of the steel trust showing that the finance committee of the steel trust, accord ing to its secretary, Richard Trimble, aided in the investigation by Commis- sioner Garfield, of the entire affairs of the corporation. One extract says:
 .The finance committee has been in close touch with the matter at all times. We have been in frequent and almost constant communication with Commissioner Garfield and more or less with the President himself, con corning these matters
 When George w. Perkins was ask ed about the contribution, he admit ted that it was made and said;
 tIn 1904. it was expected by every body that corporations would contri- bute to the campaign funds of the party they favored. Nobody saw any great harm in it them
 George E. Cortelyou. however, in testifying recently. denied that he, as chairman of the Republican national committee, had received any money as a 1904 contribution of the trusts.

GOING TO FIGHT TUBERCULOSIS BY
 OVERLOOK PLAN
State Commissioner Gun shannon Will Outline Plans at Public Meeting In Bridgeport Thursday Night.

The Overlook idea of combating tu- bercufosis, which has been adopted in many States throughout the country, particularly in Massachusetts, where it has been very effective, is to be tried in Connecticut. State Huber culoSis Commissioner John F. Gun shannon of Hartford has arranged to hold a public meeting to which every one is invited at the Common Coun- cil chamber, Thursday evening, Sept 5. At this meeting he will explain the plan. outline the campaign which it is intended to conduct and make the citizens conversant with the pro- ject.
 The Overlook idea was originated by pr. Melvin tC Overlook of Worcester, Mass, who is a member of the State Health Commission of Massachusetts. The essence of it's success lies in the benevolent work of the manufacturers who make appropriations for the care of any ernploye who becomes afflict- ed with the disease. The enploye, upon discovering the effliction, is sent without expense to a sanitariun1 and kept there until recovered. There are regular inspections and in this way the minute the disease shows up in the system of person it receives at tention and thus is checked before se- rious developments.

DIR. KNIGHT LEADS
Returns From State Show Few Contests at Repub-
 lican Caucuses

Reports from the Republican pri maries held all over the State last night were to the effect that the vote was light, that there were few con- tests, and, with the exception, of Or ange and Middletown, there were no instructions. Orange instructed for Blakeslee and Middletown for Judge Robinson.
 It Is safe to say, however. that a majority of the delegates elected to the State convention at Hartford on September 10 and Ii will favor the candidacy of Dr. George H. Knight. of I1akeyille.
 Tn the First Congressional district, where Senator Fl H Fenn, of Weth- ersheld. and c. E. BisselL of Suffleld, are tfghting for the nomination, Sen ator Tenn said that he was sure of the nomination. that he had carried Hartford and would have no difd- culty in getting the honor at the con- vention.
