MUCH PROPERTY ISl INVOLVED IN SUIT
 FOR AUTO MISHAP
Ernst Adams is Defendant in Action Following Wife's :
 Accident.

More than $10o.OOO worth of prop erty owned by Ernst Adams has been levied upon in a suit for $12.ooo dam agss bTe.gh by James Rsughton of Ansonia to recover damages which he sustained when he was run over and knocked down by an automobile driv- en by Mrs. Ernst Adams on the af- ternoon of September I27.
 Boughton who is member of the FraternaI Order of Eagles, was cross ing at Fulton and Main streetsNwhen he met James G. White, former res< ident of Springfield, Mass, and an ernp1oye of the Remington Arms and Ammunition Go. Mrs. Adams in a new automobile, was driving north in Main street, when another car /driven by Jacob Walz, proprietor of the Lyric hotel, swerved suddenly and turned toward the left hand side of Athe street. To avoid running into the Walz car in the side. Mrs. Adams turned her car toward Fulton street and in doing so ran down White and Boug ghton who were standing in the middle of the crosswaIk. Coroner Phelan at his inquest exonerated Mrs. Adams from criminal responsibility.
 MT. Boughton has brought suit through Attorney Frederick M. Mo Carthy of Ansonia- The papers. in the suit were served by Deputy Shere iffi James Kiernan. The hotel prop erty in Fairfield avenue known as the Adams house, has been attached, also nearly 20 dwellings which MT. Adams owns in the West End, in Maplewood avenue between Park avenue. and Coleman street.

MUSICIANS HAVE PLAN FOR LABOR TEMPLE IN CITY
Central Labor Union Will Receive Outline of Project
 At Next Meeting.

Plans for a temple Of labor which will be at once a monument to the advance made in this section by orr ganized labor. and a place useful for the many needs of such a. cause, are under discussion in local union cir c1es.
 At the next meeting of the Central Labor<union definite steps will be outlined by which the project may become a reality It will come be- fore the Central Labor body from the Musicians' union. the executive board of which has endorsed the plan To Alfred Sykes, steward of the Bridge port Musical union,9 belongs the credit for originating the scheme as outlined by the Musicians board.
 MT. Sykes had in mind the unde- ve1oped real estate at Main and Con- gress streets owned sby Samuel H. Wheeler as a site for the proposed labor temple. If this property can not be obtained satisfactorily. other tracts will be considered
 There never was a time in the his tory of gthe city when the working men were so well organized in unions, but each union has a separate meet ing place and the meeting places arg scattered about the city. MT. Sykes idea is to have all unions gathered in one building, a building that shall
 
 meeting of several labor organizations on the same evening.
 According to his plan the Labor Temple will have a big restaurant where good food wi1Y be served union labor men at a 1ow<charge, cafe for union men only, gymnasium. shower baths, swimming pool. reading rooms. rest and recreation rooms,< A nam moth assembly hall for /meetings in connection with labor movements will be in the center. There would 4also be offices for the business agents of all unions.
 In the upper stories he proposes to | have sleeping rooms so that 9 union man coming to accept work in this city might be assured of shelter for 1 several days until he is enabled to find more desirable lodgings.
 MT. Sykes believes that through the +sesta blishnent of this labor temple all union labor will be centralized and union wor1men will find it much cas- | fer to secure employment.
 ~-He has prepared a series of plans | for the temple and also an estimate 1 of the cost of construction, together with an estirnatef of what the various unions are new paying for rental of l meeting places, heat, light, etc. MT. Sykes has estimated that the l labor unions of the city through the l Central Labor body could at once make an initial payment of $5o,eeo for such purpose without seriously I crippIing their finances. Once the Labor Temple is established heIesti- mates it would soon pay for itself through the income derived from renting its meeting places and the in | come from the lodging rooms, restaur- ant, etc.
 1 So far his idea has met with the | endorsement of all the labor leaders ! to whom he has presented it.

, London, Oct. t8-Strumitsa, in Bulgaria, has been occupied by the allied armies of Great Britain, France and Serbia, ac- cording to official adyices from Salonika, telegraphed by the. Reuter- corporation at Athens.
 Various points dominating the railway from Salonika to the interior have been occupied by allied. troops, the correspon- dent says, and the protection of the line is regarded as assured.
 The entente allies have effected a. landing at Enos on the Aegean Sea in European Turkey, close to the Bulgarian border, and have seized the railroad at that point, according to a. despatch from Athens to the 1Gessag- zero, of Rome, transmitted by the Central News.
 Occupation of Strur1aitsa by the SI- lied forces is. confirmed by des- patch to the Exchange Telegraph com pany from Athens. The despatch says that the allied armies are ad- avancing. A number of allied war ships are cruising in the Aegean off the Bulgarian port of, Dedeagaehe.

ALLIED TROOPS TAKE
 LARGE BULGAR TOWN

London, Oct. 1S-Serbian and Ana French troops have occupied the Bulgarian town of Strumitsa, 50 miles north of ,SaloniIxi, according to official telegrams from Athens. This follows closely upon news that Serbians with allied assistance, have repulsed a. BIl- garians attack at Vi1andoYo, turning the advance of the Bulgars into a re- treat beyond their own border Thus the Anglo-F'rench Serbian action in the Balkans has leaped oHt of the field of surn1ise into vivid ground of fact and it is asserted by London military observers to have been crowned at the outset with success.
 This arrival of French troops at the psychological moment when the Serbians' struggle with 10000 newly arrived Bulgarians at NilandOva and TIundovo still hung in the balance, has dramatic qualities which for the moment had ompIetely eclipsed the military exploits in other theatres. The chief military importance of thet aIlied-Serbians efforts is the de- feat of the Bulgarian program of cut is known to have been the Bqlgarian objective. It is not clear whether the troops co-eperated with the French in this operation, but a mess age from Athens stating that they had left SaIoniki Saturday for the Serbo-

 In the eastern theatre the Germans again are attacking the Russian posi- tiorls southeast of Riga, but so far Petrograd commentators regard this to be purely a demonstration ca1cu- lated, to district attention from the Dvinslz. region and GaIicia, which have gained greatly in Importance with the Balkan developments.

 Tour From Bridgeport.
