MASTERING SHELL SHOCK.
American Institution Near the Battle
Fields of France.
An Associated Press correspondent

An Associated Press correspondent
at "A Chateau in Lorraine" says
The dread of so-called shell shock,
that has grown out of inconsiderate
talk about it, is being taken out of it
here in special American hospital
within sound of the big guns. A
charming old chateau that grew out
Of sixteenth century farm has been
filed with twentieth century COM
forts for officers; enlisted patients
are quite as we'll housed in nearby
wards, where they enjoy the same
luXuries
A signpost Identifies the place as
Base Hospital No. IT," Mobilized
at Allentown, Pa, and brought to
France by it's present commanding Of
ticer, Col. Clarence r. Bell, it Is the
first and only American hospital
dealing with shell shock.
What appears to be going on here
mostly is farming, amateur mechan-
les and outdoor sports. There are
between 80 and 40 acres of land un-
der cultivation, piles Of stone being
broken for road mending, heaps of
old tin cans and old packing boxes
being made into all sorts of knick-
knacks, and soldiers playing base bail
and croquet, and officers tramping
around the roads and through the
handsome fcrests,

agents around the place. How eff

the. army, cured, out of IS officers,
43 out Of 240 Jprivates trated there
since it opened June 16. or those
that remain few have not reached the

Capt. Sidney T. Schwab, who came

All conductors and motormen in the employ of the Shore Line Electric O., Fast Lyme division, have rendered their resignations to the company and were to leave the employ of the cor pora ton in a body when they got through work Thursday night Thurs day afternoon the officers of the com pany were planning to meet this extra blow in an already depleted force, and II was stated by General Manager stratton that crews for cars on the East Lyme division would be provided as far as possible,
 The resignation of the men is due to the recent order which closes the car barn near Oswegatchie. recurring all cars to be directed from t>a car barn in Montauk avenue in New Lon don, To take their posts on schedule time, the men say it would be neces- sary for them to give up their homes which they have established along the Fast Lyme line, in Waterford, Mantle and Flanders, and move to New Lon don This part of the order. they claim, would entail a hardship. and for that reason they are obliged to seek other positions.

BALTIC STREET MAN
 FIGHTS DEE THREE


 Peter Angelic of S1 North street, Rocco Sabatino of 50 Lake street and Thomas Vigilanti, who also lives in the North street neighborhood, all with bleeding cuts and bruises on their faces. were locked up at police head quarters on Thursday evening follow ing a complaint by James Drew, a car penter living at 117 Baltic street, that the three had made a vicious assault upon him at his home.
 The three men were found at their homes some time after the fracas by Policemen Farrell, Carroll. Shea and Murphy, who were sent out to bring them in after Drew had complained of the assault upon him.
 According to the story Drew told he was on his. way home to supper when the three men met him outside his house. One of them had brother inlawf who was sick recently with pneumonia and MT. Drew had advised them in a friendly neighborly way to have the sick man sent to the hospi- tai This was done, but the man died.
 Thursday night when the trio met him they blamed him for the death of the brother in-law You llilla Char lie" said Angello,who was wearing the black band of crepe on his arm for the deceased brother -in-law.
 Angelic attacked him and Drew de- tended himself, eventually getting An gello down on the ground and then breaking away from him and going into his tenement. which is on the | second floor of the house. In the scuffie he had to fight all three of ttie men.

BRANDEGEE'S ANSWER TO PRESIDENT

Resolved. That the senate, having complete and full confidence in the discretion, Judgment and patriotism or the president, -indorses and ap- proves whatever methods -he may em- ploy to achieve the result of victorious peace and the establishment of the principles for which the war, andin dorses such determination as he shall reach as to the manner hest calculated to preserve the dignity of the nation and it's complete vindicatien in the contest between the United States and it's associates in the WAT between these and the imperial German em-' pire and it's allies"
 Senator Lewis is tho whip of the democratic party in the senate. He is now running for reelection to the senate, specially requested thereto by
 the president in writing. As expressed
 by the terms of this resolution his
 idea, and I have no doubt the belief of many of his colleagues is, that the senate of the United States should ab-
 dieate its functions, should have no
 ideas of its own, but should approve
 whatever course may be taken by the
 president of the United States" con
 corning negotiations for peace or an
 arnistice, ard should indorse and
 
 employ irrespective of what his
 course or methods may be- and should ''indorse such determination as he
 shall reach as to the manner best cal culated to preserve the dignity of the nation etc" One would hardly think that this could occur in a government of. for and by the people, and in the senate of the United States. which un- der the condition, is the co-equal of the president in the exercise of the treav making power. Yet this is typ ical of the state of mind and aOiect subserviency to which the president has reduced many members of con gress Surely there must be some distinction between reasonable SUD- support of an administration which ac- cidently finds itself in power at a time the congress has declared war and the utter effacement of all initia- tive and ideas.
 The president admits in his amazing appeal that the republicans are fol 1 the war, and in the next breath states
 that if they win the election it vii l encourage Germany. Every govern ment in Europe, including Germany | knows that the election of a repubi- l can congress will be a guarantee tha l the war shall be conducted with in | creased energy to a victorious ending
 and an enduring peace. A republican | victory at the polls in November woul( l be an inspiration to the allies. Ger | many would set no more of her in
