TWO CATASTROPHES
 AT RIDGEFIELD
Peculiar Connecting Link Between AccidentS-Feared Edward Ban-
 non Has Fractured Skull. ....

Ridgefield, July 1.-Two accidents with peculiar connecting link oc- cured here today. AS First Select man E. M. Bailey was driving his large touring car down West Lane he collided at Northrops Corner with a similar automobile belonging to Mrs Effingham Maynard of New York, summer resident of Ridge field. Two women besides the chauf- feur were in the car. No one was injured. The Bailey car was so bad ly damaged as to be put out of com mission. The Maynard car was only slightly damaged and proceeded.
 Shortly afterwards as Joseph Rob- erti, a contractor, and Edward Ban- non were driving in the formers business wagon along Main street and had started down a hill the wagon shafts dropped. This fright ened the horse and he bolted. Rob- erti and Ramon were thrown out. The former suffered a severe scalp wound while the latter was picked up unconscious, and it is feared ne has fractured skull.
 It so happened that at the time of the accident Bailey was on the way to Bannon's house to get him to do some work for him, while Roberti the runaway from his home to a piece of work on which he intended to put him.

MARKET TRADING
 IS FAIRLY ACTIVE Conditions Abroad Responsible for Setback in Early Dealings.

Wall Street, 10:45 a. m.-Conditions abroad were probably responsible for the moderate setback registered by the local stock market in today's early dealings. International issues ruled lower in London, where apprehension regarding the situation in Ulster was revived. The deadlock in the Mexican negotiations also exerted an adverse influence. Losses did not exceed fractions and in most cases re- coveries speedily ensued. The only gains of note were Atlantic Coast Line, Brooklyn Rapid Transit and Liggett and Meyers preferred, which advanced d point.
 The trading was fairly active, with indications of some investment de- mand.
 Trading became increasingly dull in the late session and the list again in- clined toward a lower level.
 Representative s oc k S moved with some uncertainty today. Dealings were restricted, the profess sional element showing little disposi- tion to make new commitments in view of impending developments The close was heavy

Suffragists Turn Their Artillery Upon
 House Rules Committee.

Washington, July 1.-Discouraged but undaunted by President Wilson's declination to use his influence for congressional action on constitu tional amendment for woman suffrage, leaders of the votes for women fight turned their heavy artillery in the direction of the house rules commit tee today only to find that a meet ing called to vote on the Mondell- Bristow amendment had been post poned until August l.
 According to plans the committee was to meet and vote on a special rule providing time for debate on the amendment in the house at this ses- sion of congress. When the suf- fragists reached the capitol they were surprised to find the committee room empty and that the meeting had been postponed. Fearing a coup by their enemies, the suffrag1sts posted sen- tinels to watch the committee room and dispatched others to appeal to in dividual members to have a meet ing

ANTITRUST PROGRAM WILL BE COMPLETED
\emocratic Senators Expected 10 Pass Resolution to Stay in Wash-

Washington, July 1.-Senate demo- crats planned to hold "a conference here late today when it is expected a , resolution would be adopted an nouncing to the country congress in tention to remain in Washington . until the administrations antitrust program has been enacted into law. { The conference was called by Ma :ss sserity Leader Kern to act on a resolu- on. declaring it to be the sense of I }eT democrats of the senate that trust Visitation be enacted at this session. XBelief was expressed here today
 Vt the decision to hold a conference
 to assure the country that the
 trust program would be passed to
 Hal conclusion as soon as possible
 file some opposition was expected 1fom democrats who hold radically different views from those, of Presi- dent Wilson, administration leaders in the senate were hopeful that the resolution would be adopted. It would bind dem ocratic senators.
 It was not expected the conference would make an attempt to outline a definite plan for legislation.
 The reason for this is the fact that two of the measures on the program -1the Clayton antitrust and the rail- mittee with no prospects of an early report on either of them. Belief was expressed here today that adoption of the resolution would hasten adjourn nlent of congress.
