LET CAPTAINS OF
 INDUSTRY FIGHT
 INDUSTRIAL WAR
Speaker Before Philosophi- cal Society Offers Solution
 of Europe's Struggle
Present Conditions Parallel of Ancient Tribal Contest
 for Hunting Rights

Prof. George R. Kirkpatrick, in his address before the Bridgeport Philo- sophicaI society, last night. declared that war originally sprang from tribal struggles over the right to hunt and fish on certain land. It was in it's or study into the causes of the present war he proceeded from the economic premise and reached the conclusion that the European struggle is the re- suit of contention between the cap tains of industry of the several ma tfonEs, to see which shall have suprem- acy in the world market
 It arises, according to his view. from exactly the same general causes as those which gave birth to the trfhaI was of immemorial antiquity.
 His remedy consisted in the educa- tiOn of the people, and especially in the education of the working classes to the knowledge that war contains nothing for them but pain and de- privation, death and unaecounted an guish.
 He thought that the European war would cease if 500 Of the leading bankers, 500 of the leading statesmen and 500 of the leading capitalists of Europe were compelled to march in the first line Of attack
 He thought that workers should re- fuse to fight, and that if brought into the firing line by compulsion they should seek the first opportunity to surrender, or be taken prisoner. He declared that there are men in this country who own property in Mexico who would compel. if they could, many American workers to go to Mexico to guard their mines and plan tations in order that these might re- turn them more profit. Most war, he said, was in the nature of his descrip- ton of what war between ourselves and Mexico would be.
 He considered the warlike spirit to be in part due to teaching children that Americans are the greatest peo- pie earth, to other children that the French are the greatest, to other children that the Turks are positively the last word in superiority and so on.
 This teaching, declared the speaker, spirit in the adult and makes it easy other nations.
 The true method. he thought, is to teach the children that men are broth ,ers, and that they are in emulation with each other to see who can do the best work and the most good

NO IMPROVEMENT IN CONDITION OF
 MRS. F o. GERNERT

Exceedingly discouraging reports come from the bedside of Mrs Frank c. Gernert in Danbury hospitals and the officials of the institution are able to hold out but little hope that she will ever leave the place. There has been no serious relapse, is the report, as there has been but little notice. able Improvement. She is now un- conscious and has never been more than partially conscious. During the semi lucid moments it has seemed that she has recognized, in a, dim way, some of her acQuaintances. But of this, the officials are not sure. Mrs. Gernert has failed to realize, as far as outward appearances, go as to where she is or what happened. No attempt nas been made to tell her of MT. Gernert's death. She remains paralyzed. due to her broken back, and surgeons are expressing doubt as to this condition ever being greatly improved.

ROWLAND DRY GOODS co.
.SUFFRAGISTS NOT
 MUCH INTERESTED IN. ELECTION RESULT

While the suffragists rejoiced be- cause the Democratic party of the state had put a. suffrage plank into their platform, they do not exactly feel bad about it because the Repub- 1fcans won,'' said Mrs. W. T. Hincks, speaking today of the local elections. We don't think it made a. great deal of difference because it seems that suffrage is coming along slowly but well throughout the East.
 At various times different parties have asked us to endorse thera but we have been obliged to refuse as we felt it was unwise to do so. Our req son has been that we have a faith in all men of all parties and we feel that when the time comes, the right time, some large group of men will be responsible for giving us the vote.
 While we have not yet had time to find out definitely, we feel strongly that the Bridgeport representatives who have been elected. will favor our side. In Samuel c. Shaw. who was elected to the legislature from Red ding we have another strong advo- cate. Personally, so far as suffrage is concerned alone, the suffragists are very glad that B. J. Hill was elected as our next congressman rather than MT. Donovan as they wt1 probably have as strong an advocate for the r. nent in MT. Donovan
 tsThe situation in the western states is exceedingly promising and the slow progress of suffrage across the coun- try is assured. The states which have suffrage don't give it up and the states near them take it up which is, of course, very hopeful for the cause. Suffrage is an experiment but no more so than the whole Democratic gov iS an eXnRriment.'
 The suffrage campaign will begin in this country on Monday. It is pro posed to reach all the representatives of the small towns of the state, to give them an opportunity to hear suf- frage speakers, discuss suffrage and ask questions that none may go to Hartford this winter without having learned considerable about the sub- ject. Many of the speakers are to be entertained for the week in this city.

etMr-> Leeds thinks it's up to you to resign from the board 7 said Dr. Rob- ert J. Lynch to William E. Seeley at the meeting of the board of contract and supply today. It was an '7- journed meeting,N because yesterday Dr. Lynch was in favor of buying an other Hvass type automobile sprinkler which Director of Public Works Ja- cob A. Courtade asked for. Mr. Leeds opposed the purchase. MT. Leeds also opposed the purchase of the two trucks now in use in the department on the ground that MT. Seeley is the agent for the Packard car in this city and Packard chasses are used in the Hvass sprinkler
 MT. Leeds father is dead in New York and MT. Leeds telephoned this morning to Clerk Baldwin saying that he could not be at the meeting but that the board might meet and trans act business if the other members so desired Yesterday MT. Leeds was not at the meeting and since Dr. Lynch favored buying the auto sprinkler and MT. Leeds voted against it, the board adjourned without reach ing an agreement.
 Today MT. Seeley acted as chairman of the meeting and Dr.. Lynch moved the. purchase of the truck. The doc tor said he had something to say but he would rather wait until Mr. Leeds d~5 l4 C%oClAI OO1OAS u0 SctIO It. NIT. See1ey said the director wanted the truck to use before November 2S and since MT. Leeds had said he was vii ling the board should go ahead and transact business he thought the truck should be bought at once.
 MT. Seeley said that although his firm, the Blue Ribbon Garage, has the Packard agency for Bridgeport and vicinity the firm does not receive one penny commission on the sale of the sprinl1lers to. the city. He said if. re- pairs are made on the. truck the com pany might receive about per cent of the commission.
 q think this objection by MT. Leeds comes out of the CatIin natter said Dr. Lynch. |I don't think this board has suffered any by a change of clerks. We have just bought blankets and comforters for the fire depart ment and we bought better goods cheaper than ever before and we spent all the money with home mer- chants who are taxpayer think MT. Leeds said some time ago that it was not up to this board to tell the different departments what they should have, but to buy what the de- partnents requisiticn for as cheaply as4 possible. The board was founded to buy cheaper than the different de- partments can buy
 The Hvass sprinkler will cost 4 250, the same a the two now in use for the city. When Director Courtade asked
