FRENCH EMPHASIZES
 RESCUE ARMENIANS.

Paris, Sept. 22.-The rescue by French warships of a large band of Armenians from pursuing Turks is re- counted in statement issued last night by the ministry of marine.
 Pursued by Turks the statement says, five thousand Armenians, three thousand of whom were women, children and old men, took refuge in the Djebelmoussa mountains in the end of July. They succeeded in keeping their assailants at bay until the beginning of September. Ammu- hilton and provisions then gave out and they would inevitably have suO- cumbed had they not succeeded in getting word of their grave situation to; a French Cruiser. Immediately cruisers of the French blockadi11g squadron off the Syrian coast went to their help and took all of them to Port Said where they were installed in a camp.''

With the opening of the office at 925 Main street in the Sturtevant building, Dr. Sherwood, his story goes, was induced to take charge of it upon a, salary basis At the expiration of a weeks time a proposition was made to sell it to Dr. Sherwood upon a con ditionaI bill of sale, payments to be made at the rate of $50 per week.
 There were many verbal disputes between Jones and Dr. Sherwood in which the latter claimed Jones was making an effort to control the prac- tice while not being nominal1y the owner These arguments eliminated in the destruction of portion of the business ledger and the claim that a payment of $50 had been made to Jones for which he had refused a, re- ceipt. The matter went into court with the ultimate result that both parties signed waivers of their claims.
 That lucrative business is being waged throughout the state by pro fessionaI dentaI-parlor promoters who themselves are unable to practice openly is asserted openly among den- lists of this city who show that upon conditional bills of sale large initial payments may be secured and upon the failure to make one secondary payment upon large contract prices the business and all former payments revert to the promoter who may then resell the business upon similar terms.
 It is alleged that some promoters of this characters have between three and five business under their super vision at one time.

UNLICENSED DENTISTS ACTING AS PROMOTERS DO BETTER THAN
 DO LICENSED PRACTITIONERS
Story of "Dr Jones' Main Street Parlors For $2O,0OO Brings To Light Practice of Other Persons Following His Procedure.

That pr. J. Nelson Sherwood, a young New York dentist, whose Ii- cense to practice made him a desira- b1e adjunct to the dental parlors oc- cupied by A. G. Jones at 925 Main street, signed an agreement to pay Jones $20,000 and to assume all un- paid obligations of the place, for the business and fixtures there, became known today.
 Sherwood and Jones recently took their differences to court, but an an- icable adjustment of their differences was effected, and Sherwood now is practicing dentistry over the Caesar Misch store, Main and Golden Hill streets.
 injunctio ons and counter injunctions in the superior court, pr. Sherwood disclosed the transactions that led up to his nominal title to the office, which it is believed is the method now gen orally adopted throughout the state by unlicensed dentists to control their former practice and patients.
 Dr. Sherwood, who had been prac- ticing in New York state and desire d to come to Connecticut where he heard business was hourishing, took the state board an1inations at Hart ford. Dr. Jones is alleged to. have at once upon learning of his success full passage, proposed partnership to open a business in Hartford. While negotiations were pending Dr.. Sher- wood was employed in the Fairfield avenue office in which Jones was in terested. E

WESTERN FREIGHT RATE CASE

One of the most important of recent events in the railroad world is the de- cision of the Interstate Commerce Commission in the Western Freight Rate Case. Only a small part of the rate advances applied for were grant ed. The point of greatest significance in this connection, however, was not the failure of the railroads to receive the financial assistance reQuestetw but the reasons which led the commission to come to an unfavorable conclusion. Apparently, a majority of the commis- sion thought that the revenues of the Western railroads would be adequate if the financial management of num- Der of these roads had been proper. Commissioner Daniels throws a great light upon this phase of the. matter in his dissenting opinion, He asserts that the unfavorable decision of the commission was attributable to the be- lief that the financial Jexigencies of many of the carries are undoubtedly due to financial ma1administration, and if due economy and integrity had been uniformly observed, the difficulty oyer the attested decline in revenues would have been readily surnounted.' ''
 Owing to the financial practices which
 have characterized the history of the Frisco, Rock Island, Alton. and other railroads, Commissioner Daniels states further that it has come to pass that
 8 widespread disbelief exists in the
 general integrity of railroad manage ment.''
 Under these conditions, it is not a
 matter of surprise that the Interstate Commerce Commission refuses to sanction rate advances. There can be
 no assurance that the proceeds of rate increases would be devoted to the pur-
 poses for which they are said to be re- Quired. Additional revenues may be
 used as a basis for further unwar- lranted security issues. It has been the dissipation of resources, financial mis- management. and overca pitalia ztion which have brought the railroads to their present financial condition. It has not been due to higher wages to employees, or a lowering in freight rates.
 Legislation is needed authorizing the Interstate Commerce Commission to
 pass upon railroad security issues and congratulations. A railroad should not be permitted to float stocks and bonds
 unless the proceeds from their sale is
 actually invested in the property gn- til legislation of this kind is passed the Interstate Commerce Commission cannot decide whether railroad reven-
 ues are adequate or inadequate, the in vestor can have no security in pur- chasing railroad stocks and bonds and the railroad employe cannot hope to
 receive fair and reasonable increases in compensation.

Signal Seen; 5000 Rescued.

Paris, Sept. 22-Pursued by the Turks about 5000 Arnfenians, of whom nearly 5000 were women, cI1il- dren and aged men, took refuge late in July in the mountain height of Djobel Moussa, to the north of the Bay of Antioch, where they succeeded until the beginning of Septenber in holding off their assailants. But at the moment when tn cir provisions and munitions commenced to fail them and they were inevitably about to succumb they were able to signal a French warship.
 The cruisers of the French squadron Fblockading the coast of Syria went to their aid and succeeded in effecting the escape of the 5000 Armenians, who were transported to Port Said, where they received a great welcome and were installed in provisional camps.

v1croKs SHOULD HAVE WON.

At Newark yesterday the Newarks defeated the emse1ves in their contest with the Ironsides. Stewart pitched 9 fine game, allowing the Brewers only nine scattering hits. He was finely supported by O'Rourke, who gave one of the finest exhibitions of all around playing ever seen in that city. In five times at the bat the ex- Giant had two singles, two doubles and a triple. Ivers also played a corking good game, getting two sin gles and a double and playing well in the field. The game was lost by in different playing on the part of Terry Rogers, Jack Doherty and Patsy Gun ningham, each making two raw err TOTS.
 Dooley of the St. Patrick's, covered third for the Victors and played a fine game at the dizzy corner The Vic tors made IA hits to Newark's~9, yet the latter won 6 to g..
 Lush will probably finish the sea- son with the Victors now that the Eastern League season has been com cluded- His sore, finger , is healing rapidly.
 President Freedman of the New York Giants expressed himself last week as being favorably impressed with the playing of Second Baseman Mcdonald of the Springf1elds, and it would not be at all surprising if this star player wore a New York uniform next season. He is 8 Bridgeport boy and very popular here.

According to the sur geons Senator Foraker has been greatly worn by overwork, and he can not hope for a complete recovery without the operation. He has been devoting himself recently to his heavy law practice despite his years.

Al oUEER GRIsT MITL.

A cow and calf belonging to MT. ConIon, probably animated by rest less ,roying, sightseeing inclination. started to swim across Cooks mill pond from the West Stratford side this morning. After proceeding a short distance into the stream the animals, either drawn by the force of the current, or a healthy smell of meal in the old 'sY ellow MIL" drifted under the building and were close to the waterwheel when the miller for tunateiy discovered them and shut off the power. After considerable trouble the adventurous Critters
 were landed again On Stratford's sa- 1ubri ous soil, none the worse for wear.
