BACK MAYOR IN
 VICE CRUSADE
Iniercfurch Men to Write Mr. Lawler Supporting His Stand
PROPOSITION OF DR. ADAMS
Mem Allied With Illicit Eager to Pull Mayors Leg for Favors-church- men Do Not Take His Hand
 in Public interest.

Especial Hartford Correspondence).
 Hartford.-That every churchman in the city back up Mayor J. H. Law Ter in the stand he has taken in the vice crusade, was the decision of the inter-churchmenis luncheon at the Allyn House. The Rev. Dr. John Coleman Adams, pastor of the Church of the Redeemer, urged that every man seated at the table either go personally to the mayor and eongratn. late him on the stand he has staken, or write personal letter of approval to the chief executive The sugges- tion was greeted with approval from the men present, and many expressed their intentions of carrying out the proposition of the speaker. Dr. Adams said that men allied with illicit business of al sorts in the city are eager to pull every mayors leg for favors, but churchmen do not even take the mayor by the hand nor write letter to him to let him know their sentiment in regard to matters of public interest.

FEW AFTER
 s6,OOO PLUM
Hartford POstmastership Dazzl-
 ling to Democratic Eyes
CANDIDATES VERY SCARCE
soellaey and Holt in the LimeIisht- In Less Than a Year a Chance
 for Someone Who Wants a a Four-Year Job.

Special Hartford Correspondence)
 Hartford.-In less than a year Ssere viIl be a chance for some Hartford Democrat who figures that his time ia not worth more than s6,000 year, to give up that time for that figure. The Hartford postmastership will fall +o the lot of some Democrat who will have four years job and get S24,000 for holding it. It is assumed that tbe office will be filled by a Demo orat, according to the long continued custom. although it is not contended 4bat the change will be for the bene- fl of the service, as the Republican postmaster has made an effort, in his eight years in office, to serve the public and it is generally admitted that his administration has been sat isfactory. But who will get the shoes now filled by Frank A. Hagarty?
 The Hartford democracy has never been noted for it's lack of hunger, when plums were on the menu, but, strangely enough, this big s6000 plum of the value of $500 a month and $16 nlus a day-never mind the cents apparently has no great number of laps waiting for it's fall. It can hard lv be that it is without it's attractions for Hartford Democrats and a better guess sens to be that it's brilliancy dazzles some of those who look with longing on smaller fruit.
 Fx-Senator Thomas J. Spellaey, went to the national capital last week and his visits to Washington are al- ways of more interest than those of plain MT. Jones or MT. Smith, for they are generally believed to have some political significance, especially as the Hartford man usually manages to run across Congressman Augustine Loner- gan on Pennsylvania avenue, or some other thoroughfare, and the two stop long enough for one to ask how the others corn clubs are getting along. MT. Spellacy will be in his office but what tidings he will bring from headquarters cannot be told at this writing, although there are those who believe that he will know more about the Hartford postmastership than when he took the train for Washing ton.
 While Bank Commissioner Fred P. Holt did not care to give up his present place for a chance at two years in the mayors chair it is said that he might look with different eyes on the postmastership which will last four years, at least, and run about two years beyond the expiration of his present term as bank commissioner, with a decided difference in salary in favor of the federal place.

Saloon Fight Is Ended.


 Shelton.-Judge J. B. Dillon, who with Attorney Joseph Shapiro, con daeted the fight against the transferr- ing the license from the Donovan block to 330 Howe avenue, received notice, that the commissioners had decided not to grant the transfer. This concludes in the favor of the local people a fight to confine the saloons of the place within certain limits, these being roughly defined as being the section between White street on the north and Center street on the south. An attempt to secure limits had been refused, and the present ap- plication was asked for point con- siderably south of these limits. There is an overwhelming public opinion here that the saloons should be se- greCated, and thus be the easier to control. Some curiosity is expressed as to the next step of the petitioner, William Metzer, the importance of this resting in the fact that Shelton has reached the limit in saloons al- lowed by law.
 Should MT. Metzger carry out his expressed determination of locking the license n his safe, it would lower the number of saloons here by that much, as no more licenses can be se- cured until 1920 when the census shows a sufficient increase in the population.

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
An Unexplained DispsrSt

One Of the mysteries Of the stock mar.
ket Is the difference In price between the
stocks OF the International Harvester
Company of New Jersey and Of the Inter.
national Harvester Corporation. Both Of
these companies have approxim ately the
same amount OF assets. the same outstand-
Ing capitalization and approximately the
same earning power. When the Corpora
ton was formed the separation agree
ment provided for n division of the assets
and liabilities of the old company 80 that
the net assets OF each after the division
should be exactly equal. Tho 1ntcrna-
tional Harvester Corporation owns all tho
foreign business and in addition the busl-
ness In this country known as the new
lines and does not compete with the old
company Mt all The so-called new lines
consist OF gasolere and oil engines. trac-
tors. auto wagons. cream separators.
wagons manure spreaders and tillage and
planting implements. IL has always been
understood that the new company by no
means got the worst of II in the division.
Moreover. the foreign corporation is not
defendant In tho Government suit
against the New Jersey company. That
the stocks Of the latter should sell several
points higher than those OF the corpora
ton Is therefore distinctly curious. A
decision In the Government suit is ex-
pected In the near future and one explana-
ton OF the disparity IL that the two com
panies have become confused I'm the mind
Of the Street.
