CHIEF BRENNAN NAMED TO HEAD
 STATE POLICE
Annual Meeting Today of Uniformed Police of Var
 ious Connecticut Cities
Capt. John H. Redgate Re elected to the Executive Committee Other Off, eers Chosen.

Nreriden. Isily 16.--With 80 dele gates in @attendance. representing be- tween 700 and 500 guardians of the peace in some 28s cities and towns of the state, the Connecticut State Po- Hcemen's Association held it's annual convention in this city today. The to- tai attendance including those unof- fcia11y present was 125. The business sessions were held in the auditorium of the City Hall, and included pre- sentation of reports and election of officers.
 Former Chief of Police Henry D. CowIes of New Haven, as president, called the convention to order. It is understood that as he has retired from active police duty, following the regu- lar custom in the association, he will not be a candidate for reelection.
 Chief W. H. Brennan of Stamford is to be chosen as his successor.
 During the afternoon a visit was made to West Peak where c. J. Dana her of this city threw open his sum mer home for the entertainment of the visitors.
 The following officers were elected:
 President, Chief William H. Bren- nan, Stamford; vice-president, Chief G. J. Farrell, Hartford; secretary, urer, Chief w. J. Rawlings, New Bri- tain.
 Executive committees: Capt J. H. Redgate, Bridgeport; Chief A. w. In glis, Middletown; Chief G. c. Wheeler, Winsted; Capt. D. w. Bradley, Dan bury; Superintendent G. M. Beach, Waterbury and Chief P. C. Smith, New Haven.
 The reports showed that the finances were in good condition and that the membership had increased from 7S2 last year to about 800 at the present time The next annual convention will be at New Britain.
 Former Chief of Police Cowles of New Haven leaves the presidents chair after having served six years.
 The new head of the State associa- ton is one of the best known police chiefs in the east and since he has taken command of the Stamford de- partment he has brought it's efficiency up to a high state. He has long been a, close student of crininology and thanks to his repressive measures he has been able to keep the percep tage of crime at a low minimum in his district,
 In the national association he wie1ds an influence of no little power and his advice has been often sought by the police officials of other cities.
 The reelection Of Capt. John H. Redgate to the executive board is deserved recognition of his work in the association as it is generally con ceded that were it not for his un- tiring activities in the early days of the association the project would have died aborning.
 Each year shows an added increase in membership and the day is not far distant when every member of the uniformed police of the several Com necticut cities will be included in the membership of the association. Bridgeport sent a large delegation to today's meeting.

 WILSON CALLED
 TO WASHINGTON
Hurry Home by Order of the Pres
 ident
Situation in Mexican Affairs C0mpeIS Presence Forth
 with at National Capitol

Washington, July 16-President Will son today, after an early conference with Secretary Bryan over the latest aspect of the Mexican situation pre- sented by the inquiries of foreign pow CTS as to the attitude of the United States ordered Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson at Mexico City to pro ceed to Washington Immediately for conference.
 Ambassador Wilson will hurry north on either the Battleshtp Michigan or Louisiana, from Vera Cruz, if any delay would be entailed by waiting for a commercial steamer. Officials here believe that the almost total inter ruption of railroad traf1c between Mexico City and the United States will force the Ambassador to make his trip by water. He is not expected here before July g at the earliest.
 It is believed in official and dip1o- matic circles that an important an- nouncement of the attitude of the United States in the pending situation will follow the ambassadors confer ences with the President and Secretary Bryan. The Presidents action today, following closely the union official an- nouncement that some of the foreign powers have already recognized the Huerta government were pressing for some indication of this governments attitude toward the continued disor-
 
 Secretary Bryan positively declined to add any information to his brief announcement of Ambassador Will son's call to Washington.
 However, it is assumed that the ad-| 1ninistrat1on desires to learn from the ambassador directly what influences actuated the foreign diplomatic rep resentativeS in Mexico, when they jointly agreed to address their gov ernments with what amounted to al formal complaint against the attitl1deI of the United States in its relations with the Huerta. regime. President Wilson has kept an open mind on the subject and is thought to feel himself bound to adhere to the policy he an ncunced early in his administration of lending moral encouragement only to such governments in Latin-America as was founded upon constitutional law and practice. Tt is understood. weight to any representations Ann bassador Wilson may care to make.
 The President has had the benefit of private reports from several of his personal friends who have travelled in Mexico recently, but these were un- official and not sufficient to form the basis offormal attitude if there were to be any changes in policy.
 Secretary Bryan was asked if the coming of Ambassador Wilson to Washington would change his project ed lecture tour. He replied: "The newspapermen might have assumed that my lecture dates would not. inter fere with business. instead of assum- ing that they would. My lecture dates were made subject to cancellation

DR. RYAN WANTS SAME TUTORING
 FOR ALL PUPILS
Public Summer School logical Solution of
 Tutoring Problem
Many Objections to Use of Pub lie Property for Teachers
 PrIVaie Profit

Dr. w. H. Ryan. who has been mak- ing critical examination of the sys- tenn Of tutoring, which prevails as a more or less unofficial part of the Bridgeport school system, announced today, when seen by a reporter of The Farmer that he is opposed to opening any of the public schools for private tutoring purposes, as proposed by Principal Everett E. Cartwright of Shelton school.
 Dr. Ryan's views were briefly and simply expressed, las follows:
 Public school property ought not to be devoted to private uses for the benefit of this or that individual,
 which would be the case if school principals were enabled to establish private schools and receive pay pu- pils in them
 ssSoma pupils do not make the re- uutred marks. If they can make up the work they should be allowed to go on- But tutoring has hitherto been Gone in their own homes by teachers, who receive very moderate conpensa- ton I believe this work has been, as a rule. well done
 Now to permit the high salaried pr1ncapa1s to open private schools on public property will give a public col or to their efforts and tend to remove the employment from the teachers who are now doing 1t, on their own time and in their own homes, which is 7 a little unfair.
 But there is another aspect to this Rna4ter of tutoring. AS things ares 1.-two children fafl to make up the stan tdard set by the city. One is the child of parents who have money and 9he other the child of parents who cannot afford to employ e tutor. Perhaps there ought to be a public summer school employing two or three fteacherB paid by the city, which would be open to ali on equal terms. ~ This would be fair to poor and well-to7do and the advantages of a. d9pfOxna and an early graduation would be denied to none finally able to make the stan sdard.'

DAY IS OBSERVED AT
 CAMP BALDWIN
His ExcelIency and Staff Received at
 Mantle
Occasion ShOrn of Picturesque Features Marking the Day
 in Previous Years

Niantic. Conn, July Ex-Governor Simeon E. Baldwin and members of his staff came to the state camp here today, which is named in his honor, to see the fnfantrymen of the Connec- ticut National Guard at work and to spend night with them under canvas. The Governor and his party were met at the railroad station by General Geo. M. Cole, commander of the camp and his staff and escorted to the reserva- tion, where he was received with sa- lute of seventeen guns, and other marks of recognition due his position not only the Chief Executive of the State but as communicated chief of the State troops. The occasion of Gov ernor's Day, however, was expected to be shorn of many of the picturesque features that have marked Governors Day in previous years, due, it was said, to the fact that as Camp Bald win is a working camp the Governor was averse to disturbing the routine.
 Preceding the arrival of Governor Baldwin, which was about one o'clock, comparatively few visitors, for Gov ernor's Day, had come to the camp, but it was expected that during the afternoon the numbers would have materially increased.
 The troops had already put in 9 good mornings work before the Gov ernor came. The days procedure was cn1eT1Y that or cOmDaC eXerc1Se by battalions against an outlined posi- ton, this being the third stage on instruction in infantry fight. This morning the First Regiment was left in camp while the Second hiked three

 Meanwhile the First Regiment had put in the morning with drill in shel- ter tent pitching and in forming sup ports to an outpost includingS guards and patrol. During the afternoon the First Regiment will be marched out to the hill three miles away and go through similar work to that of the Second Regiment, while the latter body will put in the afternoon on shell ter tent pitching and other drills, which kept the First busy. in the morning. They will have the added incentive, however, of working under the eye of the Governor.
 The tactical talks by the regular army officers which have up to today been given after the morning work and again in tke evening, were de- ferred until evening.
 The weather was ideal, there being just enough breeze to temper the heat of the sun.

LIQUOR LICENSE
 SELLS FOR $2,3OO
Two Claims of Creditors Against Antonio Fraenza Satisfied
 in Court

The sum of $230O was realized from the sale of a liquor license held by Antonio Fraenzas according to state ments made to Judge Scott in the Court of Common Pleas this morning. Fraenza has conducted saloon at East Main and Nichols street for many years but recently became involved in litigation which made it necessary to attach the license.

Two other claims were withdrawn and the Pequonnock National banks claim of $1,15O was allowed by Judge Scott. There are a number of other creditors who have brought suit against Fraenza and his real estate has been attached.

Witnesses generally testified that

Frederick Schrieber, dealer of

made. He believed the binder deter

for wire.
The relative merits of the two ma
terials as binding material brought
Mr.. Schrieber and Attorney Darling

at times satirical colloquy. The
witness declared wire is to be prefer
red to twine because crickets eat off
twine bands.
