SLAV SOLDIERS
 IN FRANCE ARE YOUNG VETERANS
Tender in Age, They've Seen Much Fighting And Are
 ExceIlently Trained.

Camp de Mailly, Quarters of the Russian forces in France, May 26.- The Russian troops awaiting orders here to join their French comrades at the front are living an idle life in this lower corner of the old province of Champagne; it is a life that is 50 full Of the picturesque that it constitutes perhaps the greatest attraction that has been witnessed in the department of the Aube.
 Fraternizing with the French sol diers quartered in another part of the camp, these men show no need of re- pose after their 7S days of hard sea voyage. They appear as supple as their French comrades, although alongside of they they look something like giants. The entire camp exhales an atmosphere of gaiety, confidence and discipline which is quite as strik- ing as their individual appearance.
 Tommy Atkins can teach them nothing in the way of hygiene and cleanliness. Men, privates and sub a1tern officers, take pride and care in looking after the barracks.

BOY SCOUTS PLAN HIKE TO MILFORD
 FOR SATURDAY
New Haven Scouts Will Par ticipate In Contests With
 Local Boys.

The field day in connection with the Boy Scouts of Ameroica that was be- ing planned for some Saturday in May is to take the form this week of a hike contest with the New Haven Scouts at Milford next Saturday. The plan is to have each scout bring his own rations and hike to Milford, leaving Bridgeport at 10 o'clock and arriving in Milford at 12:30.
 All West End troops will meet at the City hall at 9:45 a. m. Then march through Main street to Fairfield ave- nue and over Connecticut avenue where they will pick up the East Side Scouts.
 the green and take us to the field to cook his own dinner and afterwards to have a social time with the New Haven boys. If it should happen that any scout or scout-master cannot get away to parade with the boys he will be able to take the trolley car so as to arrive at Milford at 2:30 when the sports commence. After dinner the following evens will form the contest: First aid race; semiphore Signalling; patrol centipede race; rescue race ;Awa- ter boiling contest; knot tying; stretcher making; equipment race.
 It is hoped that every scout in Bridgeport will be on hand for this hike as they will have a splendid op- portunity of finding out how the Boy Scouts of Bridgeport stand in efficient cy in comparison with other cities.

METHODIST CONFERENCE
 DENOUNCES TOBACCO

Saratoga Springs, N. Y., May B. The Methodist General Conference yesterday declined by vote of 435 to 360 to remove from the discipline of the church the clause which provides, the penalty of expulsion for such members who play cards, dance and attend the theatre.
 More stringent regulations regard ing the re-marriage by Methodist ministers of divorced persons are pro- vided in a report submitted to-day by the committee the state of the church. By the proposed change a minister who performs such a mar riage is guilty of ma1-administration and is to be held answerabIe to his conference onl the charge
 The total abstinence by Methodist church members from the habituaI use of tobacco is urged in another proposal which denounces the habit as tout of harmony with the best Christian life"

''They are excellent soldters,' Gen era1 Lotchwasky said simply to The Associated Press correspondent in re- ply to compliments upon their bear ing and appearance.
 Many of my men might be called veterans although you see that there are very few who are not still young. They have seen hard service and are penetrated through and through with the military spirit; what makes them particularly happy is the opportunity to come to fight for France against the common adversary on French soil.''
 These Russians appear impatient to get to the front. They are mostly peasant boys, tall, muscular and with every mark of real sons of the soil, as simple as they are robust, and as frank and outspoken as they are wig orous.
 Are we soon to march against the Germans?'' asked one of the young subaltern officers, while all, the men gathered around him approved the in quiry with a gesture of the head.
 A new contingent of these men ar rived on May and this same inquiry was the first thing they had to say on reaching the camp Discretion pre- vents disclosing how fmany of them are/here. and since they continue to arrive 1t is impossible to conclude as yet whether their presence is sim ply sort of p1atonic expression of sympathy from the Russian army, or whether their force is expected to add a real element of strength to the En- tente Allies on this front.

ARMED MEN TAKE
 ANOTHER ISLAND
 IN GARBAGE FIGHT

New York, May 26.-With the des- patch of another armed force under cover of darkness and the night seiz- ureS early yesterday of another island in the Kill van KU1I indications are that there are to be further exciting developments in the fight between the City of New York and Richmond Bor- ough over the location of the proposed garbage disposal plant.
 Borough be1ligerents have now de- termined that neither Pra1I's Island nor Lake Island is going to be the site of the plant.
 Fifteen armed men are in possession of Lake Island at Green Ridge, about a mile from PralPs Island. The party swooped/ down in motorboats last night, sent, it is said, by J. Sterling Drake, a real estate operator of No. 29 Broadway, who last week sent a party to take possession of Pralls Is land.
 The explanation of the midnight move is said to be that the contrac- toEs, coming to the conclusion that a Hong litigation would be necessary be- fore they could get Pralls Island, have decided to ask the Board of Estimate to transfer the garbage plant site to Lake Island.
 Drake claims title to PralIs Island, and so does Edward P. Doy1e and both also claim Lake Island. Taken by surprise by Drake's move last night, Doyle says he will send a force of his own today and retake Lake Is- land from the enemy. In the mean time Drake's men have erected tent pitched their camp, and gone on guard duty. Doyle now has nine men on Prall's Island with Instructions to see that neither Drake nor anybody else takes possession of it.
 The Richmond Borough Civic league. holding a mass meeting last night in the Borough hall, at St. George, de- cided to continue their fight against the proposed plant. A committee will ask the mayor not to consent to any change of site to Lake Island The meeting passed congratuIatory reso1u- tions thanking Doyle for what he has done to keep the plant away from the borough.
 The raid on Pral1's Island was made last Thursday night, when 15 men went there. kidnapped 1-year-old William Farmer, the watchman and took possession. They were arrested. but were discharged when no case was made out against them. Drake took the responsibility for the mems acts and declared he had bought four dou- ble-barrelled shotguns with which to protect his property and the lives of his men.
 Monster mass meetings are planned for Saturday night at TottenviIIe and Woodrow to protest against the plant and arrangements are eine made for @ parade and mass meeting to be held in front of the Richmond Borough hall.

SUMMER SCHEDULE
 OF CONNECTICUT CO.,,
 MAY BE DELAYED HERE

Active preparation is being made by the Connecticut Company throughout the state for Inauguration of it's sum mer schedules Though 1t is expect ed that the schedule will be adopted in other cities on June l, the lack of available men to operate cars in Bridgeport where wages are high and active demand is made for help in all factories, the new summer schedule probably will not become effective here until some few days after the first.
 Tentative plans have been made for a greatly improved local and suburb an service with additional cars to Derby and Shelton, to Walnut Beach and points between this city and Mil ford, and to Fairfield, Southport and Westport. A half hour service will hereafter be maintained to Shelton and Derby, with a fifteen minute even better service to Milford. More cars also will be run on city lines and to Fairfield, Southport and Westport connecting with Norwa1k.
 There will be no re-routing of cars in this city according to present plans.

WAR DIMINISHES VISITING TO HOME OF
 STAMFORD BARD

Stratford-on-Avon May 26.--Shake- speare's birthplaeez was visited only by about 23,00O persons during the past year as compared with S7,OOO in the preceding year, and approximately 5OoOO in years of peace. The dimin- ution of visitors from America was most marked, only 254 having signed the register album as against 5000 the preceding and an average of over 11.OOO during the five years prior to the war The pressure of the war also brought about a reduction in the number of admissions to Anne Hath away's cottage and New Place.
 The trustees of Shakespeare's birth place at their annual meeting elected the Earl of Plymouth a life trustee in place of the late Lord Ronald Suther- Iand-Gower. Sir Sidney Lee. who presided, expressed the confident an- ticipation that American visitors would corne in their ordinary mum bers when the war was over.

LITTLE WILLIE SIMPSON,

Shortly after 5 yesterday afternoon while Drawtender Joe Scheitinger of the lower bridge was closing the draw he was startled by the cries of a per son in distress, and saw a man dive into the water. Presently he saw the apparently unconscious form of a youth rise to the surface and dis appear. In a moment the man and youth appeared and were assisted ashore.
 The lad after being given stimu- 1ants revived, and said he was little Willie Simeson of East Bridgeport. He said he had been playing on a raft when he lost his balance and in fall ing struck on his head before he rolled into the water. The gentle man who rescued him was Henry Johnson, the ship carpenter, well known hereaboutS.

Connecticut National Guard, proceed ed by inspiring martial music, march ed through our streets this forenoon on their way to Sea Side Park for target practice.

SPAIN AND AMERICA.
Baltimore, May 25th, 1s16- Translated from @ Madrid Paper,

Baltimore, May 18th, 1916. (Translated from a Madrid Paper.
 March 5th, 1St6-)
 Our differences with the United States are about assuming 8 serious character. in consequence of the re- fusaI Of the American government to restore provisionaIly that part of Florida which is the subject of our demand
 It will be reco1Iected that Bonaparte obtaining Louisiana by his pardsans in the then Spanish ministry, sold that province to the United States for sixteen millions of dollars. Our present government does not mean to contest the validity of the sale; but it desires to lose nothing but Louis jana itself.
 The United States consider on the contrary, part of West Florida as be- ing united to the government or 1ouls- iana, and following the conditions of the principal province MT. Jeffer- son, the former President of the Unit ed States declared that this differ ence should be the subject of 8 ne gotiation; but MT. Madison thought he could negotiate more advantage ousIy after having taken possession of the object in dispute
 This usurpation met with success during the troubles of Spain. Now we reclaim the territory which be- longs to us, in the most ar11icabfe manner. Instead of negotiating the American government declares it will keep the territory. Here then is the commencement of a rupture It is doubtless very disagreeable to us to see ourselves menaced with a war with the United States. at a time when we have to combat the insurgents Of Buenos Ayres and the Caracas We have no allies against the United States; we calculate on the energy and justice of our cause.
 (Note-Spain reclaims what does not belong to her; she has no 'jus- ticeg to calculate upon; her ''energV will avail her nothing in the contest with us and she will take care not to commence such a contest.)
