DEATH FROM GAS IN AMBULANCES
 IS ELIMINATED

With the American Army in Francv, March 6.-Carbon monoxide gas has caused deaths among patients being [ transported within the closed bodies of some American-made ambulanoes equipped with exhaust gas heaters, it is announced. All precautions now have been taken to insure these ve- hicles being safe in the future.
 investigation disclosed the presence or gas in lethal quantities within am- { balances, it having passed through highly heated iron parts and leaks in Nxhaust pipes. Poor ventilation was ! responsible for theo gas remaining in the closed bodies. .-
 OrdersNnow have been issued for the boring ofhone inch holes at three inch intervalssin a double row through the wooden front of all vehicles being us- ed by the American Expeditfonary forces. Similar holes will be made in the tailboardsA All exhaust gas heat CTS in the futuEe will be carefully in- spected under operating conditions and repairs immediately made upon those found even slightly defective.
 All ambulance drivers and orderlies have been ordered to investigate the condition of all passengers within their cars at five minute intervals. This will be done by requiring an answer to nSnterrogation. Particular atten- ton will be paid to the condition of patients when anrbulances are at a standstill with the engine running.

MAKES HENS LAY
 BY ELECTRICITY

While in New London Saturday, Professor w. F.. Kirkpatrick and R. B. Jones of the Connecticut Agricul tural College visited the poultry farm of Morton F. Plant where efec- tricity is being used successfully in increasing egg production. The suc- cess Of this plan is owing to the fact that the hens eat more feed and a better balanced ration.
 In describing the working of the experiment, R. D. Jones said there are 5000 hens on the farm, 1900 of which are in the experiment. These are divided into groups of 400 birds each. In the first the birds have tomatfc hoppers while the lights are on. The second group do not have lights, but are fed from hoppers, while the third are without lights and fed by hand. The lights are con- trolled automatically by two clocks which it is only necessary to wind twice a week. The automatic hoppers used in the first pen are used only during the lighted hours. At 4:4E D. m. two-cand1e-power light is l turned on over the roosts, and at o'clock three orty-candle-power lights are lighted in each house. These re- main on until daylight and are turned
 on again at dusk until g p. m. wher they are replaced by the small lights
 until 9:15 o'clock.
 The greatest increase in produc. tion is found in the case of the olG | hens.

TO
 ENACT SOLDIERS .vOTELAW ON 18TH

No legislation, other than that which bears on the taking of the sol diers' vote next October, will come up at the special session of the General Assembly on March 19. This decision was reached at a conference yesterday between Gov. Marcus H. Holcomb and prominent members of the General Assembly. They came, 12 in number, from all parts of the state and gather ed at the Hartford club about II o'clock yesterday morning. The meet ing was called before 1 o'clock.
 The proposed measure for the taking of the vote was gone over 1E detail. It will provide that the vote be taken through the military chan nels, both in the cantonments and among the troops which are abroad. This is contrary to the method pur- sued when the vote was taken at the Mexican border, special voting com missioners being sent down at that time to handle the voting.
 When the question of taking up other matters at the special session came up, Governor Holcomb said that there was a constitutional objection to introducing other business at a session called for a special purpose.
 'The state constitution authorizes me to call a special session in the case of an emergency" he said. "But only measures pertaining to that emergency can be acted on at such a session. I do not expect that any leg islation will be enacted, except that ot l taking the soldier vote"
