NEW COMPANIES INCORPORATED TO
 ESTABLISH HERE
Many Concerns Will Be Added to Ranks of Muni
 tions Manufacturers

Daily increase to the number of fac tories locating here for the purpose of manufacturing munitions of war and accessories, and war contracts, is i noted in the commercial publications i throughout the United States. Among the latest interpretations noted at Hartford, which have direct bearing upon this city or it's enVirons are:
 The Eastern Brass & Ingot Co.,, of Bridgeport, incorporated with capi- tai of $300,O0O paid in, the directors of which are John H. Stearns, Ernest Munster and Albert ziesk, of Chiea- go.
 Black Rock Manufacturing Co.,, Bridgeport, capital $1o0,00O, George
 E. Hammond, William J. Van scriver and Charles G. Hammond. Bridge port.
 General Ordnance Co., of Delaware, &BoS,ooO capital incorporators all for merly connected with the Submarine Boat Co. This company has purchas- ed the plant of the Repeating Firing Gun Go. of Derby and 1t is reported will move the plant to this city.
 The SchwerdtIe Stamp & Die Go. of Cannon street, is reported to have received a $1O0,0OO order for dies from the Bethlehem Steel Go. for use in marking heavy ordnance orders re- cetved from abroad.
 Though the name of the large com pany which, with $50,ooO,OO capital will locate plants in Bridgeport, Wat erbury and Providence, R. l., is re- fused by former State Senator William R. Brown. who resigned from the Remington-U. M. c. Go. last week and who is now actively engaged in procuring a staff to work with him. the company is unofficially understood to be identical with the ScoviI1e Mfg. Co, of Waterbury, which seek an opening here. It is believed in some quarters that the erection of build ings will soon begin on the shores of the Housatonic river in fStratford.

CONSIGNEES CLASH
 WITH RAILROAD ON
 DEMURRAGE RUL ING
Refuse to Settle Overstay Charges and SaysFacili-
 ties Are Inadequate.

As a result of railroad congestion in this city and the non-delivery of cars, local consigneesS have protested against rules of the railroad demands ing demurrage for cars, with the pos sibility that upon insistence of pay fqent by the railroad, suits for dam ages will be entered in the courts.
 It appears that the sidings in this city are far inadequate for the great influx of business and that while no- tice of car arrivals is often made by the company the opportunity to un- load proitab1y is not offered Ny the railroad company. It has been the practice of consignees here to unload any car available but upon the most urgent freight being also opened up for delivery. the work of transferring the cargo of the second car delivered consequently has superseded that of the first, with the result that demur- rage bills have been rendered by the New Haven company.
 These are uniformly being returned to the railroad company by the con signees. The railroad will be com pel1ed to pay foreign lines the demur- rage or resort to suits in local courts. The attitude of the consignee is firm and the only means of avoiding seri- ous litigation seems to be in the rail- road applying to the Connecticut Pub lie Utilities Commission for imme- diate permission to build additional spur tracks in this city.

URGES CATHOLIC YOUTHS TO JOIN
 FOR MUTUAL AID
Rev. Matthew Judge Men tions Hartford Affair as
 One Good Reason.

The need of organization among
 Catholic young men was urged at the
 Sacred Heart church Sunday by the
 Rev. Matthew Judge in the morning
 services. He declared that this need
 tack that has been made in Hartford
 on the Catholic religion.
 stIt begins to be serious when such attacks creep into our own state of Connecticut and even into our Capitol City,. Father Judge declared. He said organization is the remedy He cited the introduction of a measure re- gently into the Massachusetts Leg1s- lature, which was extremely detrinnenL tai to the constitutional rights of those professing Catholicity and that it would have prospered but for an or ganized effort made by a Boston so- c1ety of representative men.
 ssThe individual will receive no hear ing" Father Judge asserted. stAn or- ga anization of men in business and SO cial life will receive no hearing
 Tn connection with these statements Father Judge spoke of the work of the Ozanam club, a young mems organi- zation formed soon after pr. Richard F. Moore acceded to the pastorate of the Sacred Heart church. He told of the Institution of the organization, the work it is doing now and the desir- ability of furthering both it's scope and membership. know of no other good reason 2 11e said, why any young man in the parish should not join the club.''
 Father Judge is the advisor of the young men in the society. Co-operat- ing with the pastor, Dr. Moore, whose extensive accomp 1ishnaents for the young persons of the parish is receiv-, ing statewide recognition, Father Judge has succeeded in making. an or ganization that has a great influence for spiritual and social improvement Meetings are now held in the base ment of the church. but it is expected, when the membership increases and the organization has matured, a home of the clubs own will be procured.
 Glasses are held for drawing every and Thursday evening. Ed ward ". Creagh is the temporary president, and regular officers will be at the meeting in February The next meeting will be held at 7:3O o'clock this evening.

"Cy" Morgan's Fall

Big ''Cy7 Morgan, who formerly twirIed for the Athletics, the Red Sox, the Browns, St. Paul, Minneapolis. Fall River, Charleston, ". Va, and points east and west. will be thirty-seven years old tomorrow, having been born in Pomeroy, O., Nov. 10, 1879. Cy, whose real name is Henry Richard, started playinG ball with Ilion, N. Y, in 1901, and since then has played in most of the leagues. He was released by the Athletics in 1912 and since then has pitched for Denver, Kansas City, New Orleans, Dallas and Tulsa, Okla. Cy started this season with Tulsa in the Western Association. but his old soup bone refused to serve him longer. He was offered a job as umpire, and the poor old fellow, in spite of his long and honorable career, was unable tos resist the temptation. and fell. Cy was first called to the majors in 1903, when he was drafted by St. Louis, but was turned over to Minneapolis. In 1905 St. Louis again called him. and again sent him back to the A. A. with Indianapolis. After third trial in the Mound City he was turned over to St. Paul. In 1907 he came back with the Red Sox, which later sold him to the Athletics. In 1913 Kansas City sold him to Cincin- nati, but the deal was cancelled.

BECKER MAY BE ! TURNED LOOSE BY
 GIANTS NEXT YEAR

New York, Nov. 9-The manage nlent of the Giants has asked waivers on Martin Becker, the young outfield- CT who joined the team late last sum mer. Becker came to the Giants from Arthur Irwin's Lewiston, Me, Club and was used by McGraw in most of the games from then on. He was a left handed hitter and was not used when the Giants opponents sent a southpawgto to the mound. Becker show ed turn of speed on the paths which proved him to be as fast a traveller as there were in the big league, to first base especially. His hitting was only fair. but he fields well, has a strong arm, is a. hustler every minute and has a faculty of reaching first base as often as 300 hitters. It is rather Surprisingly therefore that, the Giants have turned him loose. and it will not be surprising to see him in the Ma tiona1 league with some other club when the season opens in the spring. One club. in particular, wants him, and, although it waived, is likely to grab him through purchase from the Lewiston Club, to which the Giants are sending him back.
 Becker was with McCann's New London Champions in 1914.

Moran Not Worrying
 About His Failure To
 Sign For 1916 Season

The fact that Pat Moran was not signed up by President Baker of the Phillies before departing for his home in Fitchburg, Mass, is the cause of a great deal of gossip in baseball, writes Len Wooster in the Brooklyn Times. To listen to all that is being said. one would be lead into the belief that the National league champions are in dan ger of losing their manager next year. It is not likely that the Philadelphia Club will adopt such a sort-sighted policy as not providing a berth, at an increased salary for Moran next year. Moran is one of the most popular men in base ball. Everywhere he is held in high in esteem and in some cities he is an idol. In Philadelphia they have gone daffy over him, and any one with a grain of common sense will entertain for even a moment the idea that the Philadelphia club will make such a serious mistake as not to meet Moran's demands Nor is Moran

PUBLIC OPINION
Bridgeport, Conn. Nov

Bridgeport, Conn. Nov. 5, 1915.
 To the Editor of The Farmer:
 .Sir--In your issue of the 4th inst, I
 notice that several ministers have en- tered protests. against granting cer- Eifcaes to several clubs. hat have ap- piled for them. I wish to enter an emphatic protest against chasing the City Club among those that appear to 1 be organized for the sole purpose of selling liquor. Now, if these minis 1 ters had been residents of tIiis city long enough to find their way home after dark, they would have known that the City Club is the second oldest social club in the city, the Seasid e Club alone antedating it. It is the old Rambling WheeImen, one of the largest and best known wheel clubs
 in the East when wheeling was in it's prime. The present name was taken when wheeling ceased to be popular.
 It has numbered among it's members
 some of the best known men in the state, and it's present membership will compare favorabIy with any or ganizat tion in the city, whether reHg- ious or otherwise. I have had the honor of being it's president for the past three years and consider it an insult on the part of these ministers | to class his organization with those lthat are diametrica11y opposite to it in every respect.
 Why have not these ministers pro-
 tested against granting certificates to the Seaside, Algonquin, Bridgeport and University Clubs? They are no
 more respectable than the City Club These ministers not having been in the city very long jump to the conc1u- sion that because they never heard of the City Club it must be one of those that are called 'booze" clubs. If they would attend to the business for which they are being paid and leave things alone that they know nothing about, they would appear to better advantage in the eyes of the public
 As president of the City Club, hereby resent their insult.
 Thanking you for your kindness in giving me an opportunity to present the above, I remain
 Yours very truly,
 R. SHERWOOD.
