Liquor Licenses Bringing S2,5OO
 In Bridgeport

The great value placed upon liquor licenses since the number has been restricted by law, was indicated this morning at a hearing before the coun- ty commissioners on remonstrance filed against Alphonse H. Gosch of 1784 Main street. John D. Smarto, a local brewery agent, demonstrated against the transfer of a license to Gosch from John B. McDermott.
 Smarto claimed McDermott had promised to transfer the license to him, and that $500 had been paid to bind the bargain. Robert Fitzroy, an- other brewery agent, said McDermott originally owned a saloon on Madison avenue. He had agreed not to trans fer the license to anybody but the Home Brewing Go, but later had ar ranged to transfer it to Gosch for $2,50O.
 As soon as Gosch asked the com nnissioners to give him the transfer, the remonstrance was filed. The commissioners reserved decision.

MT. Keith has suffered for nearly a year from various diseases. but the stroke from which he died is thought to be the result of the shock sustained when the Green Mountain express Jumped an hour near Harrison, N. r., May 1S, and the mail car in which he was working rolled down the bank
 While MT. Keith was not much in jured physically he was unable to re- turn to work after the accident His family say that since that time he suffered greatly from nervous trou- ble. The slightest noise would cause him to become greatly excited.

He was president of the New England branch of the Railway Mail Clerks Mutual Benefit Association, aid very actively engag- ed in the affairs of the New Haven Postal Clerks Association and the Railway Mail Clerks Association, of which he has been a member since their organization.
 Owing to his activity in these orga- nizations he was sent to all sections of the country to the national conven- tions as delegate, and it IS doubtful whether any other mail clerk in the service was as widely known, or st, popular with his fellow employees TeIegrams of regret have been re- of the country and from all classes. for his pleasing personality won him friendship with all he met.
 Mr. Keith was a charter member of the NorWalk lodge of Elks Mr. Keith was an untiring worker and the greatly to his efforts. Besides being 9 member of the EIks, he belonged to the Norwalk lodges of the MasoIls and the Odd Fellows. He was active in the affairs of the lodges.
 In New England there is not a city where he is not well known for in all the years that he has been er1 ployed in the Railway Mail Service. his runs have been between points in these states For the past few years he had run on the Springdale line be- tween, New York, Springfield, and Al bany. He had never been in a wreck until the deraflnent of the Green Mountain wreck, and the shock, ow- ing to his previous illness was too great for his constitution.
 MT. Keith is a nephew of the late Charles F.. Keith of this city who for many years was park commission CT. He is survived by a mother, Mrs Bradley s. Keith, a. sister.

 In passing sentence Judge Gager said: t'I have, of course, no sym pathy with this reckless automobile driv- ing. The instrumentality used is so inherently dangerous that there is . great burden of responsibility upon drivers of automobiles. They don't seem altogether to have walked up ta it yet.'s
 The girl was struck just after she a1ighted from a trolley car at Ben son's road crossing. It was shown that Larson's auto was following a short distance behind a machine driv- en by Fred Mills, a local garage pro- prietor.
