ANOTHER STRIKE AT
 BRIDGEPORT AVERTED
Burns and Bassick Company Grants < Increased Wages To Girls In
 Milling Department.

Bridgeport, Sept. 21.-Develop- ments in the strike situation in this city were few today. Sixteen of the striking employees of the H. o. Can field Rubber Company returned to work and strike at the Burns and Bassick Company was averted when the firm granted increased wages to the girls in the milling department.
 About fifty employees of the Bridge port Boiler Works are on strike for nine hour day with pay for ten hours.
 The expected strike at the Bryant Electric Works over the discharge of member of the employees grievance committee did not take place. When committee of the strikers at the Salts Textile company called on President Kipp today in an effort to effect a settlement they were told by MT. Kipp that he would grant none of the demands and would keep his shops closed until he got ready to open them. Notice of a resumption of operations he said would be given through the press and at that time all who did not return to work could consider themselves discharged. The shop conditions complained of, he said, were efficiency methods, installed for the benefit of the employees and to enable them to each more money.

WILL HAVE BLANK FORM.
All Bids to Be Regulated by Board of
 Public Works.

The dispute between the board of public works and Frank H. Johnston of the City Coal and Wood company regarding the contract for material for the Elm street subway has de- cided the board in favor of having a blank form for the submission of bids and in the future this form will be used.
 The board claims that MT. John ston's offer of a two per cent. reduc- tion for payment ten days after the order was received was contained in Q postscrip on his bid. This post scrip was under his signature and, ac- cording to Mayor Quigley today, the board had received legal advice that MT. Johnston might be able to legally dispute the discount because of the location of the offer, viz: in a post scrip and under the signature.
 Mayor George A. Quigley denied to- day having told MT. Johnston he be- lieved the latter should have re Ceived the contract. "What l did say," said the mayor, was. if you are the lowest bidder, in all fairness you should .receiyes the contract I did notssay he was the lowest bidder and should receive the contract -.

National Baseball Commission Will
 Not Grant Plea of President Gilmore

Chicago, Sept. 21.-The plea of the Federal League for participation in the worlds series will not be granted, President B. B. Johnson, of the Amer ican League himself a member of the national baseball commission said today.

F. HI. Johnston on That "Joker"
 Proposition.

F. HI. Johnston on That "Joker'' Proposition.
 Editor Herald:
 It is with considerable satisfaction that I note in the Courant of this morning statement attributed to the city engineer, that with the per cent. guarantee MT. Johnston would have underbid the next bidder by $39."
 That is exactly what we stated-and all We claim. The 2 per cent. clause was submitted to Judge Gaffney and pronounced by him as legal part of the bid, and the city could have saved the amount had the board so desired.
 If there is a Joker" in this matter, the joke is evidently on the city, as it is footing the bills-larger than are necessary in this case.
 The statement of the president of the board, that everyone knows that it takes from two to three weeks and sometimes four to get car through from Ohio or Pennsylvania shows his ignorance of the subject so far as the materials specified in the bid are concerned.
 We furnished six cars of conduits and wrappers to the city in July and they arrived in New Britain, as rail- road records will show, as follows: from Pennsylvania shipping point 1 in days; 3 in days; in days. The statement of Chairman Humph- rey-that at Mr. Johnston's request he called special meeting of the board Friday noon is absolutely a mis- statement made my protest We'd nesday afternoon to the clerk of the board calling attention to what I con- sidered an error in their figures and if our bid contained "Jokers sc" and wasn't legal why was a secret meeting of the board called Friday noon to discuss their previous deci- sion.
 Respectfully yours,
 F. H. JOHNSTON,
 President. The City Coal & Wood Co.

Russian Army Escapes.

London, Sept. 21, 12:16 p. m.-Lat- est reports from the Wilma fighting zone indicate that the Russian army there has escaped the coils which Field Marshal Won Hindenburg threw about it. By cavalry raids as bril- liant as the famous coups of stuart and Sheridan in the American C1vl War. a screen of German horsemer swarmed about both Hanks of the re- treating Russians and stood astride their main lines of communication. Ii now appears to be probable, however that these encircling forces are toe weak to impede General Ruzsky's vet erans.
 The simultaneous movement by Prince Leopold and Field Marshal Won Mackensen have not resulted ir the expected advance, especially by the latter, who has not been able to link his scattered troops after their march through the Pripet marshes
 Relief for Russia.
 If it be true that the defenders of Wilma have escaped, Russia has cause to draw a deep breath of relief; for it is apparent that the cautious strat- egy of Grand Duke Nicholas was abandoned for the moment and that General Ruzsky's troops remained in Wilma so long that Field Marshal Won Hindenburg's plans for junction of his wings seemed for a time certain of success North of Lida the rail- way is in German hands, but the main forces of the Russians are south of that point
 The domestic situation in Russia, owing to the strict censorship, is still a matter of mystery. When the Dunn ba was prorogue6 numerous strikes were declared. In many cases the men are still out Others returned to work, and as the stoppage was in the nature of a protest no long-continued trouble is expected. The Zemstvo conferences at Moscow this week will express agreement in the national cri- sis with the Dumba majority, and will likely urge upon the highest au- ministry trusted by the people.
 To Push Way to Turkey.
 The long expected offensive against Serbia is said to have begun, with a storm of artillery fire resigned to cover crossings of the Danube and Save. The Teutons evidently expect to push a way toward Constantinople along the road opened by the Crusad- CTS.
 Along the other fronts nothing new has developed except the growing in- tensity of the German reply to the artillery on the western line.
