FINAL DEMAND is
MADE ON SAUNDERS
TO FIX HIGHWAY
North End Folks Voice Deter
mination To Keep After Of
ficiaIs Until They Get
Results

This morning Mayor Wilson wrote
supt. John Saunders of the Bridge
port and Danbury Railway Co. that
unless his company puts the roadway
in Main street in the Bethany chapel
district in proper condition at once
the city of Bridgeport will perform
the work and charge the cost to his
company.
Nicholas TESTIFY, a prominent resi-
dent of the section and president of
the North End Improvement assocfa-
ton in discussing the matter today
said:
1--WE are out to get improvements
for our section Of the city which is
growing more rapidly than any other
section of Bridgeport In ten years
the city has not expended 500 for
improvements in that section. One
reason is because the aldermen chos-
en- from the Sixth and Eighth dis
trfcts are men who live south of
North avenue and they generally get
what they can for the people in the
sections of the city where they re-
side and let our section go. Most
or the residents of our section of the
city own their own homes. There are
but few who rent houses. We want
Main street repaired and we want
better trolley service and We want
other improvements which I'VE are en-
titled to and we intend to keep up
an agitation until we get them"
The mayors letter to Supt- Saun-
ders follows:
- ~Dear SIR beg to advise you
that at a meeting of the Common
Council held May 10, 1913, a resolu-
ton was passed ordering your Com
-pany to place the roadway between its
tracks and two feet outside in good
condition on or before June 10, 1913;
and that failure on your part to per-
form said work, within the time spe-
Gifted, empowered the Director of
Public Works to do this work at your
expense. The city has deferred in
this matter on the strength of the
promises made by your company
months ago that the work would be
done without delay. The season for
doing this sort of work is drawing
to a close and unless your company
proceeds at once to take action, we
shall be obliged to prosecute the work
and charge the same up to your COM
pany- The condition of your portion
of the roadway is a menace to public
safety and cannot be longer endured .

lowing a conference with the Tammany
district leaders Charles F Murphy had
dispatched messenger to Washington to
protest against the confirmation OF the
appointment of Dudley Field Malone as
Collector Of the Port. was emphatically
denied by the Tammany leader.
There is absolutely no truth in it. he
said. I knew nothing about 1t until
was told over the telephone that such
story appeared on one Of the afternoon
papers. / did not send a messenger TO
Washington, and | know of no messenger
having been sent in regard to to Mr.. Ma
lones appointment The whole story liz
ridiculous"
The report had il that Information was
supplied TO Mr. Murphy by George w.
Plunkitt. James j. Hagan and other Tam
many leaders. which was TO be used by
Mr.. Murphy i'm his attempt To forestall
the Malone appointment. 1t was alleged
that the Tammany men had looked up
MIR. Malone's record as an Assistant Cor
poration Counsel and had found that he
was absent from his office much OF the
time.
