FIRE CONVENTION
 FIGHT INVOLVES
 BRIDGEPORT MAN
Assistant Chief and Captain Daley Insulted By Un- successful Candidate for Office.

New Haven, Aug. 3O-The board of fire commissioners and Fire Marshal William B. Perkins are investigating charges that Driver John J. Higgins of Engine company No. 2, inSulted As sistant Chief Patrick F. Redmond and several other delegates at the conVen- ton of the State F'iremen's associa- ton in West Haven on Wednesday. The statements made by Higgins, who was said to have been dncensed be- cause of the failure of local f1remen to support him for an office for which he was a candidate, were such, it is claimed, that some of the visiting delegates nearly came to blows with him. In addition to the alleged insult to Chief Redmond, Higgins is alleged to have made remarks derogatory of Captain Daley of Bridgeport, the suc- cessful candidate for first vice. presi- dent of the State association.
 Higgins was Ion the carpet before Marshal Perkins, who is acting as chief during the vacation of Chief Rufus R. Fancher. It is understood that Higgins was given the option of either apo1ogizing to the men he is claimed to have insulted or being brought before the board of commis- sioners on charges. Higgins is un- derstood to have selected the first alternative.
 The alleged trouble occurred at the house of Engine company, No. 2, on Second avenue, West Haven, just be- fore the election of officers, which took place in the convention meeting in the town hall. Higgins was a can didate for first vice-president against Captain Daley of Bridgeport, all though he was not a delegate to the convention Lieutenant Joseph Kelly of Engine company, No. 12, was a candidate for county vice president. A captain of the Bridgeport fire de- partment, 1t is said, demonstrated with Higgins for his language and the two nearly came to blows.
 President Seymour M. Judd of the fire board happened to be at the con vendon that day. and he learned of the affair through some of the visit ing delegates He and other comnis- stOners immediately took the matter up withnFire Marshal William B. Per kins, who has made a thorough in vestigation-
 Higgins has been in the department nearly 20 years.

New Orleans, May &c. P. Dun
bar and G. H. Fox will probably make
New Orleans headquarters for several
days in prosecuting their search for
the Anderson child in their efforts to
clear the doubt of the public as to the
identity of the child at the Dunbar
home which Mr.. Dunbar claims to be
his son that was kidnapped.
Mr.. Dunbar stated here that his
visit to Mississippi did not result in
any definite information but every.
thing he learned at Hattiesburg and
other places will help him in the task
he has undertaken. He thought he had
found the child in Hattiesburg, but
investigation proved that he was mis-
taken. AIS ea- .
Governor Brewers letter to District
Attorney Garland that the Dunbar
child must be presented for indenti
I. cation by Mississippi witnesses with.

turb the mind Of Mr.. Dunbar. He con.
tinued to say that at the proper time
the child will be presented for identl.
fication. He limited that if any effort
is made to take the child without his
permission there will be "civil war
in the Opelousas neighborhood.
Since the public has learned that
Dunbar has impoverished himself in
the search for the two children, many
checks and cash contributions have
been sent to him, all of which he &C
cepts because he believes that in g
manner he is doing a public service
in striving to run down the kidnap
ing gang and in locating the Anderson
child.
