FEARING SPIES, PARIS
 PUTS RAN ON AUTOS


 Par5s, Sept. 19--No metor cars are permitted to leave Paris except nnil- itary anbu1ances and cars carrying officials and journalists bound to and from Bordea
 It is thought this action may be due to the use of auto mobiles by spies
 Two cars, one black and one green, ehaHe been speeding around the out slkfrss of Paris defying the challenges ofneenfi ue1a. Both autom obiIes were dFtven by cha.uffeurs wearing French mi forms and carrying passengers in plain clothes, who. in some cases have returned the fire directed at them by sentinels,
 There seems to be no doubt that the cars were used by spies to dis cover positions of troops in the vii cinity of Paris
 Two more Germans a woman and her daughter suspected of spying were driven from Saint 1Gichel-SS1r- Orge amid the hootings of the pop 1iIace yesterday. volurninous core spondence with German officers has been seized
 Paris newspapers contain com plaints from different quarters against the Ieniency of the Govern ment toward German subjects leaving Paris for proyineia1 points. some of whom have since disappeared, and it Is thought likely they have resumed their vocation or spying

 ALONE WILL GET REBATE ON TAXES
City Officials Hold Court Decision Does Not Effect
 All Property Owners

Whether the decision which John c. Chamberlain recently won fn the su- preme court over the consolidation of the tax districts in Bridgeport. applied solely to him or whether it applies to all taxpayers whose property is in the First district, is a question which will be decided when the matter comes be- fore the superior court very shortly. It is the opinion of a number of law yers and city officials that the de- cision of the supreme court applies only to the property of MT. Chamber lain, which is mostly farm land, and therefore could not be assessed like improved property in the center Of the city.
 Although the assessors have again prepared separate lists of all taxable property in the First and Secand dis tricts as the tax lines were defined be- fore the legislative act sof 1913, Tax Collector Howard Smith is not making any preparations to return any DOT ton of the 19.2 mills tax collected from those whose property was formerly in the First district and he does not in tend to make any preparation to re- turn the money until the courts have passed on the matter. Then. MT. Smith says, he will not return Any money until the common council Al- struets him to.
 
 tax of 19z mills levied against the property of MT. Chamberlain was not as1egal tax and it is a question as to what tax is legal. Other property own CTS in the First district who feel they have been assessed too much may have to go to the courts as Mir. Cham ber1ain did to have their assessments abated.
 It is known that certain parts of the First district enjoy lights, sewers. DO lice protection and paved streets as do sections Of the Second district. It is known that the Republicans plan to introduce at the next session of the general assembly a bill to provide some rearrangement of the tax dis tricts so that the sections which enjoy all improvements shall bear the our- den of the full tax rate.
 City Attorney Comley will appear for the city when the matter comes before the superior court.

PEACE OVER URES
 NOT TO BE PUSHED

Washington. Sept. 1s-Great Brit ain has received no proposal for peace either direct or indirect. from Ger many or Austria and, therefore. has nothing to say on the subject. This was, the substance of message re- ceived late last night by Sir Cecil Spring Rice, the British ambassador here, from Sir Edward Grey, the Brit ish foreign secretary The ambassador had inquired early yesterday whether any proposal of peace was before his government in view of the persistent rumors from Berlin that peace pro- posals were being exchanged.
 At the White House the view was expressed that the President had virtually abandoned the idea of car rying further the informal peace movement begun ten days ago in a; conversation between Oscar Straus and Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador. He has decided to await a definite expression on terms from some one of the belligerents, feeling that it would be inconsistent with American neutrality to press any of the be1ligerents to make overtures to the others.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1914-09-19

it will not be decent or expedient for any Progressive to deviate from that thought and line of action as express ed by Col. Roosevelt.
 I want to say that your statement in regard to presiding over a packed committee had no previous Knowledge of the presentation of my name as a candidate for Congress. It was not of my seeking or desire, but in response to the wish. of my party, I have ac- cepted the call. I also accept the du ty and responsibility to my party and the Progressive cause to go into the fight with a determination to spread the principles and with the certainty that we will win. I positively deny your statement that 'twhatever mis- fortune happens this year, the Pro. gressives will be responsible for it." The responsibility harks back to the Republican bosses in the Chicago con- vention of 1912 and will this year again rest upon the old party bosses and upon the independent voters of both the old parties, if they vote my other than the ProgT essive ticket. These independent voters have been doing a lot of thinking -.along pro- gressive lines, and it is sooner or Ia- ter bound to. show in the inaugura- ton of progressive principles in our government
 It is said that Mir. Borglu1a has been recently in close relation with Republican bosses and it is evidenced by his recent activity in the Repub- hcan Congressional Convention He has been town chairman of StaInf ord and as such failed to secure a general registration of Progressives for the primary vote. He failed to secure the requisite twenty-five petitions necessary to renew his no1nination as State central conmitteeman. and there is no probability of his appear ance again, in the councils of the Progressive Party There is a grow ling opinion that he is still of the New Haven Purity Party and he is being rapidly discredited among Progress sives.
 Fellow Progressives, it is now for l you to determine whether Mir. Borg l Iurn is a sound and safe advisor or twhether he is despicable traitor that plans to hand us into the lap of tIle Republican party.
 And last, MT Borg1un, [ want so call attention to the fact that your public press advocacy Of J. w. Alsop 1 for Republican nominee for Governor Ion the very ay of the Republican nomination sinaes:ss Of insincerity, for l if you had really meant it, it would his name. at least a few days before the nomination date. Regardless. of your motive, MT. .Borglun, the dan- ger to the party is past, and in tIie minds of true Progressives you are passing into the discard accompan-
 may yet get into the lime light of party disgrace.
 No man may think, for long, that he can act in an official capacity, pose as a leader and play the double game.
