G-I, BUILT IN
 BRIDGEPORT IS
 BEST OF SUBS
Park City Product Only One of 10 Undersea Boats To
 Stand Tests.

Another tribute has been paid to the inventive genius of Simon Lake. The submarine +1, a boat built in Bridgeport for the government, off, cials of which were doubtful some years ago that the Lake Torpedo Boat Co. could put out a boat that would meet full navy requirements, has again exce1led. In a dotillaL of 10 boats manoeuvering with the big fleet at Newport recently, all were tempor- arily lost with the exception of the now famous G-1.
 The following despatch sent from Newport, Oct. Is, shows the serious nature of the submarine situation and the satisfactory showing made by the Bridgeport constructed boat:
 Serious trouble with submarines de- veloped at last weeks war game This became known today, when it develop ed that the cause delaying the flag ship Wyoming, Admiral Frank F. Fletcher, commander in chief of the Atlantic fleet, from arriving Satur- day with the other units of the fleet was a hunt for submarines.
 ''The submarines suffered principal 1y from engine trou b1es. An excep- tfon was the GE1, Lieutenant Joseph M, Deem, which came out of the war game with flying colprs.
 ''The flagship Colnnabia of the sub
 
 w. Grant, sent out a radiogram of dis tress Friday night for his submarines, which had become disabled through engine andS other trou bles, except those of the Second. Division about Block Island; the submarine D-1 had been picked up by destroyer and lowed into Narragansett Bay.
 Admiral Fletcher picked up the Co., lIImkia's message and detailed by ra- diagram the battleships Virginia, Georgia, Nebraska. New Jersey and Rhode Island to assist the ysu bmarines. Admiral Fletcher himself Joined in the hunt, which resulted in rounding up all the missing vessels
 X The G-1. built in this city, several years ago along lines laid out by the navy department but not under speci- ficatfon or contract award, was sub Hnitted to the nevaI authorities and immediately accepted after the most rigorous tests. It is believed to be the only boat in service not contract ed for originally by the government or having a diving chamber similar marines It was the first boat to have swinging torpedo tubes for firing broadside and holds the speed record of the navy at 14.7 knots an hour. It also holds the record Of having made the greatest subFnergence under of6- cial test, going down to the extreme depth of 256 feet.
 The fact that she escaped engine difficulties in the present manoeuvers is considered by naval experts to De highly creditab1e to the genius that devised and perfected her upon or fginaI lines.

Frankfurter Vendors
 Come to Blows Over
 Possession of Stand''

A lease of the northeast corner of Barnum avenue and Pauline street was virtually given Jacob Scanza, a frank furter vendor of East Main street-when Judge Frank l.. Wilder in city court placed fine of $5 and costs on Men ldeI Kursin, 222 Connecticut avenue, arraigned on the charge of assaulting his rival in business.

He did a land office business. His rival in business heard it was a good corner and last night ''squatted'' directly opposite Scanza.
 Kursin was informed that he (Scanza1 'sowned'' the corner and or dered his rival to go. Kursin decided to fight for occupancy and the pair came to blows with the result that Scanza got the worst of the battle In city court today Kursin was fined $5 and costs and ordered by the court to select a different location for the disposition of his wares.

PRESIDENT PUTS OK. ON PLAN TO
 INCREASE ARMY

Washington, Oct 14-President Wilson today approved Secretary Gar rison's plan for increasing the army. It calls for an annual expenditure of E$182, 900, 900, an increase of approxiL mate1y $75. 900, 900. The plan, in it's approved form, will be presented to Congress with the full backing of the administration.
 The President spent practically the entire morning going over Secretary Garrfson's estimates and plans which are understood to propose an increase of 3o.OoO to 50.000 in the army, a large reserve toI be created through inducing men to join the ranks by short term enlistments. The plans also include encouragement of the Nation al Guard and increasing of the mum Der of army officers by using the rn11i- tary academy at West Point to its full capacity.
 After comforting with Assistant Sec retary Beckinridge, the President laid the plan before Chairman Hay. of the House military committee. Later he will consult Chairman Chamberlain of the Senate military committee and other influential leaders of both Sem ate and House,
 The administration is confident that the Democratic leaders in both houses will approve the plan although it is not expected that the appropriations will be made without some opposition.
 In the recommendation of both Secretaries Garrison and Daniels, par ticular attention was paid to aircraft

fer, by Italy's persistent silence re.i Harding participation in the expedi-d lion and by uncertainty concerning The British program.
 Opinion here is divided to some ex-. Tent as to the advisabtlity of taIzinR4 Hart in Balkan conflict. The general IIpinton is that Great Britain is rnoF-f lilly bound to assist Serbia, if this can lie done without dangerous attenua- lion of the main front, where 1t is felt inc war will finally be decided, nots; 9kithstanding the Balkan diversion
 Having failed in their attack ou1 {Tn front, the Germans have turned Upon the French and made a gain east of Souchez. The advantage they cbtafhed, however, is not of sufficient importance to affect the general sit ration of the French. Their assault ih the vicinity of Tahure, in pursu- snce of the movement begun three Jays ago, likewise has been materially T1nproduetive thus far.
 On the eastern front the Russians Ei:iat1ve and the 1omentum eh Carried across the Stripe has not yet diminished. It is reported unofficial1y from Petrograd that it is the Ger 1hans who now lack ammunition, thus ] eversing conditions of two months ago.
 Although the Germans are cc1tin- Efng their attacks on the Dvinsk lines, the fury of the onslaught has diminished, gaining in one sector fthiIe losing in another, they appear tb have made no net gains recently.
 Since the fall of Belgrade no en- counter of great strategic importance Tas occurred in this war theatre Ser Eia is making a desperate attempt to stem the large German and Austrian forces, which are being augmented continually.
 Serbian officers profess confidence that it will be possible to make sue cessfuI resistance, even with inferior numbers, on account Of the difficult, ties which the mountainous country presents to the invader
 The Serbians are awaiting a Bull garian attack between GuievgueH and Strumnitza, near the Cheek border. They expect an attempt will be made at this point on the railroad between SaIonika and Nish and in anticipation of such a movement have -cOncentrat- ed artillery in this district.

FORMER POLICE COMMISSIONERS s
 HOME IS ROBBED
Annual Burglary of George M. Baldwin $ House Again
 Kept Secret.

The home of George M- Baldwin, clerk of the board of contract and supply and former commissioner of the police department, 232 Courtland street was robbed last week by a sneak thief, who gained entrance to the home by. means of the front door. The family was away for the night and the house was ransacked of everything of value that had not been locked in a safety deposit vault.
 Upon discovery of the artc by MT. Baldwin the police were notified and succeeded in procuring the return of a quantity of loot from local pawn shops, including much wearing ap- parel belonging to the owner. A quantity of clothing owned by Mrs. Baldwin has not been discovered and no trace of those responsible for the burglary has been found.
 As in the case of a robbery in the same house nearly two years ago the police have refused to make the affair public and it is generally believed that other robberies not mentioned in the news have been perpetrated re- gently in Bridgeport.

 DETECTIVE FALLS
 DOWN ON HIS JOB
Mrs. Clara Ludlum Wins By Default in Divorce Suit
 Against Her.

The failure of a detective to iden- tffy her as the girl who had register Sed with a, man at a, New Haven ho- tel, enabled Clara PhiIlipson5 Ludlum of 123 Bronx avenue to win a divorce suit in the superior court this morn ing. After a hearing that lasted scarcely 5 minutes Judge Case found in Mrs. Ludlunn's favor in the action brought against her by Robert c. Ludlurn. a clerk in the United Cigar Stores.
 LudIum alleged infdeIity with a man whose name he did not mention and his wife entered a denial. Harry NLeaby of State street, a private de- tective, said he had evidence that Mrs. Ludlunn went to the New Haven ho- tel with a man March last, but when the defendant and her sister sat to- gether in court the detective was un- able to pick out Mrs. LudIum. As that was the only evidence the hus- band could produce, Judge Case de- cided from the bench in favor of Mrs. Ludlum.
 The wife was very indignant at the charge made against her. She claim ed she had not been inNNew Haven in four years. Attorney Leo Davis, who represented her, said the only people registered at the hotel on tn e night in question were members of a theatrical troupe and another man, who had nothing to do with the pres ent case.
 The Ludlums were married in 1909.
