Aviators are confident that by May,
1915, such progress will have been
made that success will be assured.
It is probable that by that time the
Atlantic will have been crossed so
successfully that the competitors
will be given the choice of routes by
mid-Atlantic or by way of Green

complete victory to the insurgent mem
bers of the council at the meeting on
Monday evening. The elimination Of
the rule of the mayor was shown more
conclusively at the meeting on Mon
day night than at the former meeting
and the insurgents as they have
been dubbed by the mayor, had ma
Iority Of eight in naming the commit
tees. The mayor recognized tina. he
was facing defeat in an attempt to
overdue the wishes of the majority of
the aldermen and the committees were
adopted without any sign of fight.
When the question of adopting the re-
port OF the committee on standing com
mlttees was voted on it was carried by
the following vote Ayes, Aldermen

The report of the committee was pre-
sented by Chairman August Kisten and
it was signed by the full committee. in

Swift, Barth and Thomey. Alderman
Shearer promptly moved the adoption
of the report and Alderman Joachim
just as promptly moved that the list of
committees be not confirmed. The
The amendment was lost and the orr
ginal motion carried and the incident
was closed.
The mayor promptly named himself
as chairman OF each of the commit
tees evidently working along the prece-
dent of years ago when a mayor had
named himself ex-officio a member of
each committee. The mayor went that
mayor one better but he did not pro-
pose to the council that his addition
OF himself to each committee be con-
tirmed and the aldermen simply smiled
at his suggestion. The voting strength
of the majority aldermen gave evidence
that the mayor s suggestion that he
be chairman of each committee was a
lot of a joke.
The committees as named are in a.
great measure the same as during the
former year. The license committee
remains unchanged in its makeup with
Alderman Kisten as the chairman and
Aldermen Shearer and Willems as his
assistants. Alderman Barth, who was
second member of the committee on
streets and alleys during the former
administration, was advanced to chair
man. Alderman Sullivan remains at
the head of the sewer committee and
Alderman Shearer at head of finance.
Thomey retains his place at the head
OF the fire department. and Anderson

HAYTIEN REVOLT MAY CAUSE LANDING
 OF U. s. MARINES

Washington, July 22-Recurring revolution in Hayti threatening tre- mendous property losses led to re- newa1 of discussion today in admin istration circles over the possibility of American intervention. Small hope was held that the Haytiens would be able to put their own gov- ernn1ent in order.
 The situation had reached such a a movement of United States marines into Hayti was a possibility. State department officials declined to say whether foreign representations had advanced to the point where Arneri- can action in Haytis was demanded to force some control of the islands government that would insure liqui- dation of it's obligations.
 If intervention were ordered in United States would attempt to es- tablish financial trusteeships over the republic by which American of hcia1s not eonly would collect taxes but would prepare proper approp pria,- ton of the funds.
 z If intervention in Hayti became necessary, it was possible that the American troops might be used to put down the long revolt that has harassed the Dominican government. Such action. it was suggested, might authority which the United States now exercises in the collection of Dominican customs.
 Representations that Hayiens' credit was good and that the govern ment had met international obliga- ton have been made to President Wilson by Minister Menos.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
To the Editor:

10 the EolLOE-
 July 21, 1s1A
 I should esteem 1t a favor if you would allow me to call attention to the lax way in which Bridgeport car ries on its industry. While it is con sidered a go-ahead city and a place where everything is exped4tiomsly done, there are several things which make it look so ridiculous to an eut sider.
 This morning had to come to the city via Congress bridge, and when got there I saw hundreds of people held up because the bridge wes turned to allow a sIoW-going schooner to pass underneath the bridge.
 Most of the people were supposed to be at their work at 8 o'clock sharp and many would be s.quartered" and lose so much of their weekly wage It often happens, so ! am told, thae the bridge is turned just when people are going to work in the stores, and a. few weeks ago the bridge was lifted twice between half-past seven and a quarter to eight.
 Who belongs to this bridgeg Mn@ New York boat conpanies or tho public of Brfdgeport2 Its 4s tti4aa tlia monopolizing of the bridge by the water navigators came to an end There are other times when boat can cross without continually 1nEerfer- ing with the public rights, but at that hour hundreds of people stand fo lcge money and sometimes e miss theiF traing at She depot.
 Some day the bridge tenders will get an enforced bath for taeir eon- sduct.

Justification the Board of Directors resolutely decline to proceed under an approved arrangement adequate to that end and altogether fair.
 T am of the opinion, therefore, that the time is at hand when we should file a proceeding in equity, seeking the dissolution Of the unlawful mo- nopoly of transportation facilities in New England, and that the criminal aspects of the case should be laid be- fore a Grand Jury.
