MIL SONS ILLNESS CAUSES AUSTRIAN PAPERS TO SHEER
Vienna Newspaper Says President Abandoned
 Ideals.

Vienna Sunday, Oct. 5-(By A. P.) Vienna newspapers contained to- day, for the first time, editorial com- nent on the illness of President VII son. The VolksbIatt says:
 ''The spirit of the master walked through the world, but he from whom we hoped for salvation did not see him, nor lid he grasp his mantle. He is now stretched on his bed, where he has ample time to reflect on his lost opportunities
 Accounting the sacrifices made by America on entering the war. the Neu F'ret Presse comments on MT. Will sons "high ideals at the beginning and has subsequent actions" It then says if his illness forces him to aban- don office it will be an important political event, because it would then become doubtful if the peace treaty, with the League of Nations would be ratified by the Senate-' Speculating on world politics as they would develop in such an event, the newspaper predicts: ''The whole peace of Versailles would totter. The peace is as sick as MT. Wilson,"

Fear If Brigade Leaves D'Annunzio Will Make

POET NOW HOLDS
 6 MILE TRIANGLE

Plume, Friday Oct. 3-(By Courier to Paris) - Captain Gabrielle D'An- nunzio's army at present holds terri tory forming an equilatOral triangle, with Plume on the base and with the apex located at Clan, to the north. Each side of this triangle is approxi- mately six miles long and one is formed by the sea coast. The west ern angle Is at Preluca, about two miles from Abbazia. and the eastern angle Is at Urignt, which is between Sussak and Buccari. The line froTa Preluca to Clana passes through Castuna, while that from CIana, to the coast traverseT Grobntca.
 The town of Su5sak, the Jugo Slav section of Plume ,is thus included in the territory occupied by the DAnnunzio army. A problem of great difficulty to the regular Italian staff has thus presented itself, for in Sussak the queens brigade, which has remained loyal to the Italian government has been biIIeted. The brigade, entirely surrounded by the D'AnnunEio forces, has been living on the supplies 1t had when the raid on Plume was made. The Italian staff has been conjecturing whether it would be better to withdraw the queens brigade at the risk of armed intervention by the DAnnunzio forces or to find a method of getting sup plies into Sussak

This Act Makes For liar mony in Party-s Senator Clark Withdraws His Name As Candidate For Mayoralty.
Monday. October $. 1919.


 Allen E. Vincent, one of Bridgeport's best known busi- ness men, a large dealer in feed and coal. was nominated for mayor on the Democratic ticket, Saturday night, through the simple process of one bal lot cast by the clerk of the con- vention.
 This happy solution Of many diff culues, and this unanimous and haF- monious result was made possible by the far-sighted unselfishness of Sen ator George B. Clark, who. ignoring the waiting aid of the so-cal'~d King delegates on the floor, kept himself in the ring, until the very instant came to nominate him, and then withdrew, leaving the hostile delegations in dazed surprise, with neither time nor mind to make any new aHgnments. Alderman John Cornell also withdrew, contributing to the happy occasion, by casting in hts lot with Mir. Vincent
 But two contests subsequently, oc- cured Francis P. Dunnigan of the Ninth district, being nominated by Lynn W. Wilson, was chosen as can didate for city clerk, against Lawrence T. Gallagher, who was supported by the forces of William P. Kirk Dunni- gan was victorious by 32 to 2G. IL was thought by experienced observ- CTS that GaIIagher's vote fairly rep resented the Kirk strength, had there been an alliance between the Clarke and the King delegates, which there was not.
 Something of the same alignment of forces appeared in the meeting of district chairmen, where the align ment was five chairmen for the Kirk candidate for Board of Education. Max Boucher, and seven for Dr. Ed ward F. McGovern, who was SUD- ported by Senator Clark
 MT Vincent being nominated, a committee comprising William P. Kirke, Alderman Cornell and Lynn W. Wilson, was raised to escort MT. Vim cent to the hall, in Masonic Temple, where the conv vention assembled at s o'clock.
 When MT. Vincent appeared and was introduced by MT. Kirke, he was received with tumuItuous applause.
 MT. VincCno spoke but briefly, thanking the convention for the honor 1t had conferred upon him, and an  municipal conditions will be express ed in his letter of acceptance which will be forthcoming in a few days.
 The business of the convention was transacted speedily. It was called to order by Town Chairman Hugh J Lavery.

 The government has made con- tracts in America for 100000 tons of coal.' the newspaper says. "Ainerlca now is Italy's only hope, as the 5000 tons of German coal daily promised by France and Switzerland has not been delivered because of lack of transportation.
