BETTER PROTECTION THAN EVER AGAlNST
 FIRE FOR HOLIDAY
Chief Mooney Has Plan Which Leaves Bulk of
 Work to Chemical Crews

Bridgeport's chemical crews will bear the brunt of the annual Fourth of July fire fighting carnival, accord ing to the preparations being made by Chief Edward Mooney and the officers under him.
 Strangely, instead of increasing the amount cf4 apparatus that will be ready to be taken to fires at the ring ling to the preparations being made by |department will take off apparatus on the various circuits. By what seems a paradox, Bridgeport property will be better protected this Fourth of July by leaving much apparatus idle.
 Through plan that Chief Mooney has found very efficient. orders have been received in all the houses of the local engine companies, not to respond to a. certain number of box alarms. the list of which has been sent to each officer. On a bell alarm, the companies will remain idle and the chemical crew of either No. 1 or 2 company will care for the fire. On the second alarm however, all ap- paratus regularly assigned to a. cer- tain box, will respond including the extra apparatus detailed for second alarms.
 With the chemical engines caring for the minor bIazes, which will be predominant, each district will be amply protected by the presence of its assigned apparatus rSdQy 1OI zsd call Also. wear and tear on ap- paratus, useless runs of heavy en- zines, and strain on the fremen will be avoided.
 Especial efforts were made during the last week or two to get property owners having rubbish and inflamma- ble materials around their buiIdings to, clean up. The danger from fire works near combustible materials is great There is little of this left though, because the firemen have been di1igent in going from house to house, for many months, urging prop erty owners to lessen the fire risks by removing dangerous material.
 Fewer alarms of fire than usual are expected this year in fire department circles The ':safe and sane,' idea is fast gaining hold in Bridgeport and less fire will be used in the eelebra- ton of the day,

EXPECT SENSATIONAL STORIES
 OF CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS
 IN DONOVAN-HILL INVESTIGATION

through a committee, the chief agent for which is alleged to have been a close personal friend of Hilrs.
 A large portion of the Hill fund was contributed by persons who were officers of manufacturing corpora tions.
 The hearing is expected to include a probe into these donations, to see if they were made from private, or from corporate funds. The Connecti- cut statute forbids contrib utions from the funds of private corporations.
 Some of the donations were from men connected with corporations not in HilPs district, the 4th Connecticut and in some cases, not in the state.
 The action is fully expected to throw light into some of the twilight places in Connecticut politics, and is attracting a great deal of attention in Washington.

 The satcheI which was left by the hedge by the man also was thrown into the car. When it was opened the dynamite inside was found to be of sixty per cent. nitro-g1yeerine, the kind which explodes more easily than the forty per cent. commonly used by contractors.
 The man was searched at Glen Cove, In his pocket was found a second pis- tol the latter being of .22 calibre while the weapon which was used in the at tack was .SS calfbre.
 The terrific force of the blow the assailant received from the coal t1od had caused him to bleed profusely and he appeared to be weakening at first as he became or fetgned to become dazed about noon. It was thought pos sibly he was suffering from a frac- tured skull.
 Dr. John zahriskie, of Glen Cove, was the first physician to reach the Morgan home. Other physicians were summoned.
