Clergyman's Wife, Now wEScrubwoman,
 Seeks His Arrest
fcentlnued from Page onel

tContinued from Page One) possessed on marrying the clergyman, the wife alleges, she was forced to pawn that food and other necessities might be purchased for herself and her children and charges that her life. since her marriage has been one of hardship.
 The minister, who is we'll known in religious circles in this city and has been prominent in the civic life of the Italian quarter, came to her home, I76- Williams street, yesterday after noon, according to her story. He asked to see the children and after staying a short time told his wife he thought he would take them down to a store nearby and purchase some can dy for them.
 She made no objections thinking he would return them immediately She charges that the clergyman im- mediately repaired to the railroad sta ton and took a train for Hartford, placing the children in the care of persons in that city.
 The wife asserts he was fnsanely jealous of a. boarder in her home and in his contemplated divorce proceed ings, intends naming him as core spondent. His i'll feeling however the wife maintains is actuated solely by the fact that the minister borrowed money from the boarder, which he never repaid.
 According to Captain E. o. Cron- an who has made an investigation of the case and is undetermined as to what course he will pursue, the chill dren were removed from their moth er's roof by the clergymen on the ad-- vice of his counsel, Judge Frank Wilder
 Judge Wilder it is understood will have charge of the handling of the di- vorce action of the ministers. Lux ardo recently fainted in the city courtroom while acting as an inter- preter in a case in which Spainards were concerned. He stated in reply to question of Judge Bartlett that he had received word just previous to entering the court that his brother, an officer in the Italian army had been killed while fighting on the Ison- 20 front.

Clothingmen all over the country have been shocked by the stand of Hart Schaner & Marx makers of good clothngwhch sold exclusively in Bridgeport by this store.
 They've gone and taken issue with the Council for National Defense
 Only little while ago that Council pointed out to makers of clothing that it their duty to fabrics of wool interwoven with cotton. Such action would serve the wool supply.
 And here comes Hart Schaffner & Marx with big an nouncements that their clothes made of awool fab rics.
 Yes; they have been criticised But their claim is that suit of all wool fabric will give much service two suits of wool andccton and that it will give fully twice much satisfaction. Thus they figure who buys all-woo suit will actually wool than the who buys two part-wool suits.
 That sounds reasonable. At any rate; men who buy Hart Schafner Marx suits going to get awool fab this And that they going to get the service and satisfaction and content they've been getting for years
 The suits ready here now; handsome all-wool fab rics in tasteful new models. What IS true of these fabrics for
 men IS equally true of fabrics for s,
 womens suits. and dresses.

DEFINITE STEPS ID STANDARD|zE BREAD
 AND LOWER PRICE
lRepubIican A. p. Leased WIre]

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-Definite steps to standardize bread and lower it's price will be taken tomorrow when President Wilson issues proclama- tion placing all bakeries under govern ment license December 10 and sub jecting them to food administration rules prescribing ingredients and weights of loaves. Prices will not be fixed, but with the standardization 1t is expected that competition and sim plification of distribution will force down prices for pound loaves to seven or eight cents.
 Fancy breads will be eliminated, and the multitude of sizes now produced will be reduced to four with standard ingredients. The weights will be one pound, one and a half, two and four pounds. The loaves will have a crease in the middle to permit their sale in halves. In baking only three pounds of sugar will be allowed for barrel of flour instead of an average of six pounds now used, and two pounds of vegetable oil shortening must be used, instead of six pounds of lard or oil. The food administration expects to save 100,000,000 pounds of sugar and the same amount of lard in this way. Bakers may use only skinned milk for bread, and rolls will be permitted only, if made in standard sizes and of regulation bread dough.
 Through the cooperation of the baking inustry and also with the bak- ing of the licensing system, Food Ad- ministrator Hoover hopes to work re- form in the present method of distri- button. He will urge grocers. for in stance, to buy regular quantities Of bread, limiting their purchase to a single bakery, and to make lower charges to customers who pay cash and carry their goods home to those insisting on delivery and credit. On the leash and carry" basis, he says. bread can be sold at a profit of one cent pound loaf. In addition an at tempt will be made to persuade whole sale bakeries to sell their product di- rect to customers who will pay cash and carry their purchases.
 In licensing the baking industry,

RESOLUTIONS CALL
 FUR PEACE AMONG
 WARMING NATIONS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire


 LONDON, Nov. 11.-A dispatch re- ceived from the semi official Russian news agency gives the text of reso.u- tion adopted last Friday by the work mems and soldiers congress in Petro- grad, calling for peace, the proposal declaring that all belligerent govern ments should enter immediately into negotiations flor a democratic and equitable peace"
 The government considers a peace to be democratic and equitable" says the resolution, which is aspired to by a majority of the working classes of all the belligerent countries, worn out and ruined by war-the peace which the Russian workmen called for on the fall of monarchy. It should be an im- mediate peace, without annexation Chat is to say, without usurpation of foreign territory and without violent conquest of nationalities), without in- demnities.
 The Russian government proposes to all belligerents to make this peace immediately, declaring themselves ready without delay to carry out all the conditions of this peace through pleni- potentiaries of all countries and na- tons.
 By annexation or lsurpation of ter ritory the government means in &C., cordance with the sense of justice of democracy in general and of the work ing classes in particular, any annexa- tion to a great and powerful state of a weak nationality without the consent of the nationality and independently of it's degree of civilization and it's geo. graphical situation in Europe or across the ocean.
 If any population be kept by force under the control of any state and if contrary to it's will expressed in the press or in national assembly, or to de- cisions of parties, or in opposition to rebellions and uprisings against an op- pressor, the population is refused the right of universal suffrage, of driving out an army of occupation and organ izing it's own political regime, such a state of things is annexation or violent usurpation. The government consid- CTS that the, active carrying on of the war in order to share weak nationali- ties which have been conquered be- tween rich and powerful nations is a great crime against humanity. Accordingly the government sol emnly proclaims its decision to sign peace terms which will bring this war to an end on the conditions mentioned above which are equitable for all the | nationalities'
 The proposal further says the fore going must not be considered final but that the government consents to examine into any other peace terms "only insisting that these terms be set forth as speedily as possible by some | belligerent, and that the terms be ab- | solutely clear, without the slightest ambiguity and without secret char l acter.
 The proposal suggests an immediate armistice of three months that the rep resentatives of all the nations in the war, "or it's victims" may participate in the negotiations and declares that

An organization which has adopted the name of the "All Russian committee for saving the country and the revolution announced that the defeat of the Bolsheviki move ment was matter only of days or hours.

 The chief wireless station now is controlled by loyal troops. The Red Guard has been defeated in Moscow. Premier Kerensky is said to be ap- preaching Petrograd.

 The early putting of this plan into effect" the clubs announce ment said, would give practice in flying to thousands of men upon whom the army and navy could draw as fast as they needed them. As the work of flying across the country and dropping mail bags is identical with the work of bomb dropping aviators, they would get practical training and the aerial mail service would become practical training school for military aviators." :"
