DONOVAN DECLARES FREE TOLLS FORBIDDEN BIZ PARTY PLATFORM
 BECAUSE SPECIAL PRIVILEGE
Subsidy to Coasvise Shipping Instead rine Is Discriminating Against n Favor .of the strongHow Democrats Treated Mckinley.

At least a special act should help aweak institution, but in this case we have discriminated against the weak shipping industry {. that competes against the world, in favor of the strong monopoly, which has no com petition.
 As for the free tolls provision in the Democratic platform I will say that the convention adjourned before the platform was adopted. The plat form never got beyond the connmit- tee stage for the order of business was reversed, and instead of adopting thA platform first they let it go to last and then everyone went home by the time the platform was reached.
 .sAs a matter of fact the Democratic party never had an adopted platform in the last campaign. But admitting that it did have a platform the one turned out by the comn1itte declared the doctrine of special privilege to none
 Free tolls to coastwise vessels and not to our vessels engaged in inter- national commerce, is special privi-. lege. The section about free coast wise tolls or the section about special privilege cannot be parts of the same codes'
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1914-03-31
{ Especial to The Farrner.)

Washington, March SIR epresen- katlve Donovan, who came to Wash Lngton with a strong tendency toward free tolls for coastwise shipping, said this morning that he would not say how he was going to vote until the evidence is all in on the Canal ques- ticn- He intimated, however, that he had a strong tendency towards sup porting the Presidents side of the question: He said:
 There was a. situation similar to this one just before the Spanish : Anerican war. The martyred McKin- ssy sent a message to Congress asking g for confidence He got it, and $50, = o00. 900 in cash. There was at that time Demo ocratic minority which. ported the president to a man, as patriotic Americans
 Mfr Mckinley did not have to give the slightest account of what he was i 10 do with the money No Democrat asked him. or gave it thought ez- sreps that the first American of the nation had spoken in his official gcapa- Eity. Today we, have a Democratic orcsident- He has spoken, and the Republican minority, with a. few ez- captions, shows it's patriotism by prac- tlcing poIiticaIism, and they have thrown out a good deal of the bait. after the fashion of the bull ring. by WaT1uE the red flag OI EHglands
 sAs matter of fact. the. proposi- ton to gfTe tolls to American coast WfEe slfps only is a discrimination aEainst American vessels which will 4n1Ea<e in international commerce for they na.e not provided for. in any way. Dnf ships engaged in International cum n1erce are the only ones that can compete with Esnglanfiss shipping, and @nufl1ina is done to help 14aem.

IRISH POET, PATRIOT
 AND AGITATOR OF HOME

Dublin, March 3i=Tim- othy Daniel Sullivan the Irish patriot and author of God Save Ireland" died here today in his S7th year.
 Sullivan was one of the most prominent agitators in favor of home rule for Ireland at the time when the late Stewart ParneH was in his prime. For 20 years he was a nationalist member of the House of Commons and for two years in. succession, 1886 and 1887, was Lord Mayor of Dublin.
 On one occasion Mir. Suf- , livan served two months in jail for an offense against the coercion act and he was prosecuted several times but escaped punishment.
 Mr. Sullivan was a pro life writer Of verse and prose.

MARAUDING BANDS CUT
 ALL ROADS TO TORREON

Eagle Pass, Texas, March 31-Refu-l gees who have reached -Piedras Ne. gras. from the vicinity of Monclova. reported that Gen. Murgia had wiped out several bands of Federal fugitfves from Torreon.
 Muggia has been operating between Monterey and Torreon and is reported to have isolated the latter place from all Communication with Mexico City and other Federal forces at Monterey and Salti11o. I
 There has been no communication between Eagle Pass and Torreon over the government telegraph lines for five days. All railroads into Torreon from the east have been cut. Gen. Joaquin Mass, who went to reinforce Gen. Velasco at Torreon, made the trip overland in armored automobiles with his 800 men.

MUCH DEPENDS ON WHICH
 SIDE WINS AT TORREON

Washington. March 31-The intense interest as to the outcome of the bat tie at Torreon continues to make every other phase of the Mexican situation subordinate to the contest now in pro gress. Officials here concede that questions regarding the course of the United States in Mexico will be vitaIly affected by the result of Villas at tempt to take the city from the Fed erals.
 Secretary Bryan declined to com that Lind had advised that in the Gen. Carranza be urged to reiterate his declaration of nearly a. year ago to the effect that the revolutionary government will not recognize any loans, contracts or concessions made by the Huerta Government.
 The talk of the formation of a. sepa- rate republic in the north of Mexico, was revived here, but appeared to be without any substantial foundation. Reports that the rebels were looking to this end were promptly repudiated by their agents here. The plan was said to rest on the conviction that even if Torreon is taken by Villa it will be found impracticable to move a rebel army upon Mexico city and that the Constitutiona1ists would be wiser to make the most of the territory they now hold.
 In some quarters it was said the Administration would welcome such a decision by the rebels, though such an outcome would leave the real problem in Mexico unaffected and would create a new one for the United States to deal with.

CHILD AT PLAY
 FOUND TO HAVE
 FRACTURED SKULL

One Of the oddities of medical science is the case presented by Ernest Atbanf, aged 3, residing with it's par ents at 176 Nichols, street, who after falling two stories and receiving a fracture of the skull has been able to play in the street without apparent discomfort
 According to Mrs. Ostri1la Albani, the mother. the child was playing in a second story room Monday week ago, when climbing tol the ledge it toppIed to the sidewalk below. The mother rushed to it's aid picked it up and wiping the blood from it's face and head found it apparently sound. The child played with other children the next and succeeding days.
 Last evening as the mother was combing it's hair she noticed large lump upon the top of the head which seemed painful to- the child when pressed. Carrying the little one to the emergency hospital. she was astopish- ed when Dr. Curley pronounced the lump to be a fracture of the soft bone.
 An x-ray at St. vincent's hospital confirmed the diagnosis and the child will be kept under close observation. The case is said to be rare and will at tract much attention from local medi- cal men.
