TROUBLEAVERTEO BY CONDUCTOR ON
 SHELTON TROLLEY

When the trolley car due in Bridge port from Shelton at 7:S5 left the starting point in Shelton 27 of the 40 seats in the car were occupied by gang of laborers from Shelton who are being used to do certain work in Bridgeport This left but 1S seats for the remainder of the passengers, who numbered 60 by the time the car reached the Pine Rock park sta- tion The lucky 13 had seats but the remaining 47 were standing.
 Some spirit among the passengers, a little bolder than others, suggested that they all refuse to pay until at least 27 of the paying passengers were allowed to occupy the seats taken up by the company employees. Paradise Green collection point was selected for the revolution.
 In some manner the conductor of the oar gained a knowledge of the plot and being a good general deter mined to meet it more than half way. When the Paradise Green stop was reached he ordered each of the com- pany employees to vacate the seat he was occupying, and the paying pas sengers to the number of 27 were al- lowed to sit down. This suppressed the revolt of the passengers. It still left 20 of them standing with the 27 laborers who had enjoyed the seats during the trip from Shelton.

RESIGNATION OF
 JELLICOE GIVEN GREAT PUBLICITY
Stated That First Lord of Admiralty Was Asked
 to Resign

London, Dec. 27-The prominence gwen to the retirement of Admiral Sir John R. Jellicoe as first sea lord in favor of Vice Admiral Sir Rosslyn Wemyss in the morning papers is commensurate with his great reputa- ton and the place he long has held in public estimation.
 Notwithstanding the recent severe animadversions concerning the ad- miralty from some quarters. several newspapers treat the announcement as sensational surprise and two or three acconfpany their remarks with warm expressions of regret
 Although nothing has been said of fcially it Is implied by, the neWspa- pers that Admiral Jellicoe did not re- tire voluntarily, and according to the Telegraph the governments decision was conveyed to him before Christ mas in the form of a bare intimation that it had been determined to ap- point a new first sea lord.
 Of his successor the public knows comparatively little, owing to the fact that he never held a conspicuous command afloat and had no admins tratve experience in the admiralty until appointed second sea lord last summer. In the navy, however, Ad- miral Wenyss has a well established reputation. He also had a large and varied experience in the war and his services under Admiral De Roe beck at Gal1ipoh received the unquali- fed praise of naval and military au- thorities.

It is expected to reach many of the parents through the children who could not be reached in any other way.
 Sales of certificates and stamps through the city are reported as being very gratifying. and in great many instances s5 war savings certificate took the place of the usual $5 gold coin as Christmas present. In some of the factories each employe was presented with thrift stamp upon the regulation folder.

GRAND JURY IN
 SESSION TODAY
 ON JONES CASE

Business of the criminal superior court for the December term will probably be completed either late to- day or tomorrow morning, although there are many cases still not dis posed of. When the jury was excused last week at the completion of the Roberts trial for murder it was with the instruction they were not to re- port again unless especially notified to appear tomorrow morning. They were told that there was but one case which might come before them for trial.
 Accusation of murder in the first degree against William Jones for the killing of Thomas AsbY in a quarrel at the Warren Bros. Camp in Lindley street November 10 was placed before a grand jury at the opening of the session of court today.
 Judge Gardiner Green instructed the members of the grand jury on their duties, defined the different degrees of crime which constitute murder, and told them they are to find whether or not there is probable cause for the trial of the accused on the charges under the evidence placed before them.
 Many witnesses were examined, the court taking a recess in the interval.

U. s. CAVALRY AFTER BANDITS
 WHO KILLED 3

Maria, Texas, Dec. 27-Twe troops of American cavalry are pursuing 50 Mexican bandits toward the interior of Mexio today, making the second time within a month that Mexican raiders have been followed across the border. Movements of the American troops were unknown by Col. George T. Langhorne, commanding officer of the Big Bend patrol district, until late last night, as it was impossible for the pursuing forces to get in connection with headquarters until they had chased the bandits out of the rocky country where they sought refuge Tuesday night after raiding the Brite ranch and killing three men, one American and two Mexicans.
 A report from Villa sympathigers received here indicates that the ban dits were men from the Carransa forces. From other sources Col LAnE- horne has received information that the bandits are so-called Villa fol- lowers who were impersonating Car
