 AT BRASS GO.
Coroner Disappointed, How ever, As Valves Are Still
 Missing.

The tank which exploded at the Housatonic avenue plant of the Bridgeport Brass Co. recently and caused the deaths of five employees, has been recovered from the bottom of the Iequonnock river. Divers in the employ of the Bridgeport Brass Co. located the tank yesterday after noon and brought it to the surface later.
 The wales and other equipment, by means of which it was hoped to get some clue as to the cause of the ex- p1osion, were not on the tank. It is supposed that when the tank was blown through the roof of the build ing the valves we're scattered about. The company will conduct a further search around the premises.
 Col. Dunn, head of the Bureau of Com bustibles in New York city, will be brought to this city by the Brass Go. to see if he can discover what caused the explosion. Coroner Phe- Ian has asked that the matter be in vestigate before next Monday as he wishes to complete his finding on that day.

EXPELLED FROM
 CATALPA CIRCLE,
 SHE SUES L0DCE E
Mrs. Elmer Fitzgerald De- mands Reinstatement, in
 Superior Court.

Chraging that she was unjustly ex- pelled from Catalpa circle, Compan- ions of the Forest of America, Mrs. Elmer Fitzgerald, wife of member of the local fire department, appeared before Judge Curtis in the superior court this morning to testify in her suit for reinstatement. She is suing for $4,5OO damages also. The court room was crowded with members of the lodge when the case was called.
 The complaint alleges that in 1913 Mrs. Fitzgerald, then, Miss Lillian Farrell, was financial secretary of the circle. There had been some dispute about funds and Mrs. Anna Poth, su- preme financial secretary of the or der, came to this city to adjust mat ters. Mrs. Fitzgerald is said to have turned over a check for $7O9 and later Mrs. Poth gave the amount of the check as $634.
 Mrs. Fitzgerald noticed the shrink age in the value of the check and said Mrs. Poth was dishonest. Charges were preferred against Mrs. Fitzger- for making this remark and the board of arbitration of the order held a hearing. Mrs. Fitzgerald says she was sneered at and threatened at this hearing so she did not put on all her witnesses. She thought the boArd was not impartial. As evidence of this she claims the chairwoman dur ing the hearing remarked after charges had been made against Mrs. Poth, Tt is all I can stand to hear these things about a lady we so dear. ly love-"
 The trial was resumed this after noon.

Acting in cooperation with the Council for National Defense at Washington and with Governor Mar GUS H. Holcomb, the Bridgeport Chamber of Commerce is engaged to- day in a movement for federating Fairfield county organizations that immediate mobilization of the indus trial and agricultural resources of the county may be accomplished.
 Seven hundred invitations have been mailed from this city for a con- ference that will be held at assembly hall in the new high school building next Friday at o'clock.

 In Washington it was said that the Council for, National Defense will have to depend largely on county CO., operation for carrying out plans that the national council will make public in about 10 days for protecting and mobilizing products required by the army .and by the. civil population en- gagged in the production of foodstuffs munitions and materials necessary to the successful prosecution of the present war.
 Following the general conference to be held in Bridgeport which has taken the lead in Connecticut it is expected that similar orga aniZations will be established in the several counties of the state and that all will act under state authority in the con- duct of their work.

ss The explosion occurred soon after 10 o'clock in the pellet room of the shrapnel building, where about 100 girls were employed putting the fn- ishing touches on shells In a building were stored. A second explosion de- molished this building and scattered the shells in every direction.
 Immediately calls were sent for out side aid and physicians, firemen and policemen from surrounding towns arrived in great numbers. The build- ings in which the explosions occurred caused fire, but by strenuous work the flames, which burned two hours, were confined to these structures. Mean while charred bodies were pulled from the wreckage and injured per- sons were picked up and taken to Chester. The two main hospitals of the city were soon filled and others injured were taken to the Fifth regi- ment armory.
 No official of the company was found who could tell anything about the explosion. There were whispers of a plot to destroy the plant. If there was a plot no more effective place could have been selected for the wor. It was near the Delaware river bank and we'll isolated.
 The plant was originally constructed by the Baldwin Locomotive Co. inter ests soon after the European war started. Recently it was taken over by the Russian government, which has been employing about 10000 persons making shells
 The place has been strongly guard ed night and day and after dark searchlights made every part of the grounds as light as day. In addi- ton secret service men and detectives worked in the various departments disguised as intuition makers.

TORE DOWN FLAG
 OF U. s. AND PUT GERMAN IN PLACE
Oleomargarine Demonstrat or Discharged for Desc
 crating Banner.

Tearing the American flag from the button hole of an employees coat, fe- male demonstrator of o1eomargarine, in the Bridgeport Public Market, told flag, that if her husband wore the Stars and Stripes. -'Pd spit in his face"
 The incident created quite a scene in the market but the action of the woman a few minutes later exceeded her first offence. Employees had placed small American flags around the demonstrating stand which the woman was using. She tore them down and raised in their place a German flag.
 The management of the market, thoroughly aroused by this time, tele- proned to Swift & Co.,, who employed the woman and had assigned her to the store. The Swift mana cement hurried to the market and promptly recalled the woman.
 At the offices of the Swift Co. today it was stated that the woman's name is Mrs. Richardson. The company officials said they did not know her first name or address as she had been hired only a few days before the flag incident.
 A heavy penalty is provided for a person tearing down or desecrating the American flag. The Department of Justice has sent out the following notice to all federal attorneys and town marsha1s:
 "Any alien enemy tearing down, JnutiIating, abusing or desecrating the United States flag in any way will be regarded as 8 danger to the public peace or safety within the meaning of regulation 12 of the proclamation of the president issued April 6, 1917, and will be subject to summary ar- rest and coEdnement."

 A German diversion southwest of Ypres, according to Gen. Haig's re- port, met with no success.
 Correspondents at the front report the fighting continuing keen1y throughout last night with the British offensive gradually extending north ward, there being fighting this morn ing in the direction of La Bassee.
 Some 50 officers are among the prisoners taken, these including five battalion commanders. Although 40 guns captured is the official count so far, the number is expected to reach three figures, while quantities of trench mortars, bomb throwers, ma- chine guns and ammunition also have been captured.
 The Germans destroyed great quan- titles of supplies at the last minute to prevent their capture.
 The weather continues bitterly cold, with snow furries, but the British forces are clad in sheepskins and are kept we'll fed.

The Canadians, who had one of the hardest bits of the front to contend with, are now in complete occupation of the famous Vimy ridge, even the eastern slopes of the ridge having been cleared of Germans. The Cana dians also have repulsed German counter attacks.
 These reactions by the Germans in- dicate the importance they attach to this position, whence the conquerors look down over the plain of Douai With Vimy ridge gone, the whole Ger man line covering the French towns and industrial districts to the north becomes a wavering one, and any leisurely retreat the Germans may have planned is made uncertain and precarious.
 With the capture of the famous ridge the British made a, considerable stride along the road to Douai, while the capture of the high ground north west of St. Quentin tightens the chain which the Anglo French forces are

 O'Sullivan said:~ 'The food supply is a matter of grave economic concern to this country. Connecticut ought to do its part to r\ise every ounce of food the ground can be made to yield, and should provide the measures necessary to insure a broad cultiva- tion.''
 his bill laid on the table, said: 'I am informed that Governor Holcomb is now discussing with the State Cham Der of Commerce the principles in- volved in my bill.
