ALDERMEN SEEK LEGAL
 ADVICE BEFORE CREATING
 THE CITY MARKET PLACES

Mayor Wilson's plans for municipal market places were halted by the ordi- nance committee last night until the city attorney decides whether or not the city can legally establish city market.
 If the city attorney has found that under the present charter the city cannot legally establish a municipal ice plant, said Alderman Whitney, cit Is question in my mind if the city can legally establish a city market At any rate would like to have an opinion on this matter before we take any action.s'
 Mayor Wilson had sent a .conmun- ication to the committee asking it to make all haste in. drawing an orsaf- 1aa Fcest1zat would permit the establish ment or the markets. The mayor has proposed to place one at willard, Crescent avenue and Pembroke street: :: another in the North End and a third in the West End. His plan is to have each vendor who uses the market place pay a nominal fee for the privi- lege. The places in question are just agreed to allow the use of the land for the present.
 The city attorney was instructed to draft an ordinance which will provide that no new street will be accepted unless it is so feet wide and has an eight foot building line. This is in accordance with the desires of John Nolen, the city planning expert who has come to make over Bridgeport
 In an effort to fix a curfew law re- garding newsboys the committee will favorably report an ordinance recom- mending that no newsboys under 16 years of age be allowed on the streets after, 8 o'clock in the evening or be- fore 6 o'clock in the morning. No boys under sixteen are to be allowed to sell newspapers during school hours and newsboys are to wear badges

PEACE PARLEYS HALT AS ENvOYS
 ATTEND PICNIC
Presidents Advisors Believe Carranza Party Will Take
 Part Soon.

Washington, May 27-While the Huerta and American delegates to the Niagara Falls conference and the three Inediators prepared to- enjoy q brief respite from their work at an official garden party in Toronto today, Presi- dent Wilson and his advisers reviewed progress that has marked the media ton proceedings up to this time and discussed plans for meeting future happenings. The fact that the dele gates and the South American envoys did not hesitate to attend the Toronto fete was regarded as indicating rapid and harmonious work at Niagara Falls.
 Administration leaders and observe CTS of the situation discussed reitera- tions of some constitutiona1ists that Carranza never would pariey with the Huerta delegates. That was not con- sidered as a matter of apprehension. Once a protocol is signed between the Huerta and American missions, it was believed the northern faction might be willing to be represented at the iconferences at least to point out their Ideas for the establishment of a pro- visfonal government
 Some of Carranza,s friends who have been closely watching the Ma gara Falls proceedings have intinated that the northern chief would be ready for representation at the conference after his army took Mexico City. The capture of the Huerta capital they take for granted. Carranza remain- ed in close touch with his Washing ton agents and an early statement of bis intentions was not unexpected. s
 Just how far the envoys had pro- ceeded in their conference over actual terms and details of many things con- sidered necessary for the justification of the southern republic was not re- yea1ed in Washington but the optimis- tic attitude of the medfators and the members of the opposing nations was reflected by officials here.
 President Wilson and cabinet mem bers were decidedly hopeful That the preliminary basis believed to be maturing at the conference soon would take the form of a protocol is not an unexpected development.

 Evidence given at yesterdays in- quest at NorwaIk by divers and others connected with the work, disclosed the fact that the coffer-dam gave way al- most as a whole rather than any in-. dividuaIs unit proving weak It is said that the material uncovered and brought to the surface by the diver showed that almost every piece of wood in the construction was broken. This is said by engineers to preclude the possibility of faulty construction or defective parts For this reason it will require the services of an expert to pass upon the plans of construction already handed to the coroner and designs Of the work which were drawn from memory and pieced out from the original plans at hand
 Interesting testimony as to the hap penfngs prior to the collapse and the means Of getting out of the dam as ipants. including Carl Anderson, Guy Masters, c. l.. Barton. w. Walters Pagon and William Moran. No rot ten timbers have so far been disclosed in those recovered.

I;oht Of the

According to some computations
made by DIR. Chapman and read to the
Royal Astronomical society. the total
amount of light from the stars is
about equal to that which would be
given by $50 stars of the first magni-
tude.
The light given by stars of each mag
nitude decreases from the first magnl-
tude down to the tenth. the decrease
in brightness of the individual stars OF
the successive magnitudes being more
than compensated for by the increase
in the number of stars belonging to
that magnitude.
But below the tenth magnitude this
is no longer the case. the light falling
off rapidly as we descend the scale.
