W0ULD-BE SUICIDE IS IDENTIFIED AS
 BIG CONTRACTOR
Information From Atlantic City Received to That
 Effect.

Information received today from Atlantic City clarified the mystery surrounding the suicidal attempt at the Hotel Warehouse on Wednesday of a man whose name was given as George L. Hommedieu." The man who attempted his life and is now at St. Nincent'S hospital in a serious condition, is George L'Homnladieu, head of a prosperous and wealthy contracting firm of Atlantic City.
 It was stated in the information from the New Jersey city that Mrs. LHommedieu had come to Bridge port to see her husband. At St. Vim cents hospital today it was stated that the mans wife was here, but no further information was given.
 L'Hommedteu slashed his wrists with a safety razor blade nine times and then jumped from a third story window at the hotel, breaking both feet and suffering internal injuries As a result his condition is very ser ious although it was stated at the hospital today that he was somewhat improved after a good nights rest.
 When he was found outside of the hotel Wednesday morning, he de- clared that some information which he wished he hadn't learned, caused him to attempt his life. Then there were rumors of domestic difficulties but the appearance of his wife rather upsets those.

Men Would Have Plants Run By Committees Say Wilson and GCn1pers With Them Threats Made.

Washington, Oct. Activities of union organizers in steel districts be- fore the present strike was called had "alI the elements of conspir- acy," T. J. Davies, a, Newcastle, Pa, tin worker, told the Senate committee investigating the strike today. For etgn workmen, in some cases, he said, expect it to result n soviet operation of the mills.
 These men moved mystertously around the plant" declared Davies, who said he represented the senti- ment of 5000 tinworkers. We kept hearing that they intended to cripple the plants. paralyze operations.
 These foreigners, when we asked them, explained they were going to get the closed shop
 President Wilson, President Gompers,' they all say, are with us. You Americans cant work here afterward. Nothing but union men.
 ''We'II get the check off system . they said. and collect all the union dues
 Some of them explained to me, We won't need bOses after this, com mittees will run milIs'''
 Davies said some workers intinai- dated because they "are told their houses would be blown up and their wives kiIled.'
 Union officials admitted today that the Bethlehem Steel Co. has made in roads into the ranks of its striking workmen. but accompanied the ad- mission with the statement that they Were well satisfied with the situation. David H. Williams, the strike leader, who until yesterday had declared that at least S5 per cent. of the men were out, said that he could not now claim 75 per cent. of them He de cIared, however, that many shops are crippled because the men still out are virtually all highly skilled work men. 4 drive to bring out more of these skilled workmen who are essen tiat to the operation of all the shops, he said, is under way.
 The strike zone in the Pittsburgh district was quiet today in apparent anticipation of developments Monday when many mills which have been shut down by the strike will resume e operations. word of which has come from various sources. Steel companies continued to make plans preparatory to opening of plants. it is said while . union leaders continued to exert every effort among steel men in local plants and in those in the Pittsburgh dis trict to keep them away from the mills
 One of the biggest breaks in the ranks of the strikers. it is said, oc- cured yesterday when hundreds of employees of the Farrell works of the American Sheet and Tin Plate Com pany, one of the largest in the cOun- try, expressed a desire to return to work after having been on strike ac- cOrding to Superintendent Daniel T. Haddock. The works will be in full operation Monday morning, Superin- tendent HadlOck said following a conference with employees yesterday. There are 2,5OO men employed at the mills. The Mercer plant of the Amer Iican Steel and Wire Company at Far rell expect to be running at normal, also, it was announced.

GERMAN CHINA IN BRITISH SHOPS
 CAUSES ALARM
Prices Are Such That Lon don Makers Can't
 Compete.

Longton, Eng, Oct. 4.-(Corres- pondence of The Associated Press) ).- The British pottery trade has taken alarm at the appearance of German trict at prices which, manufacturing potters declare they cannot approach. Even in this city, with its important pottery industry, German ware is be- ing offered below the cost of loca. manufacture.
 These German goods. it is stated. are being represented as of Dutch English China Manufacturers Asso- ciation said that no china was manu- factured in Holland.
 The price of the German goods is fully fifty per cent. under the cost of local production and this is Longton, the real home of English china.
 'If it is true, as has often been said" said a pottery manufactures, that Germany has been accumulat- ing vast stocks of manufactured goods during the war, 1t is possible she has been passing them over the Dutch border in exchange for butter and cheese. In that case the pros pect of wholesale Humping" from that quarter, added to the certainty of severe direct German competition in home and overseas markets will create a serious situation for the English china manufacturer"

GEORGE MAKES APPEAL
 ID CITIZENS
Wants Citizens Guard to Protect Life and
 Property.
Appeal Meets With
 Prompt Response

London, Oct. 4-Premier Lloyd Georges appeal for the formation of .'citize1 guards throughout the country in the emergency caused by the railroad strike and it's possible spread met with a prompt response on all sides today The Lord Mayor of London lost no time in complying with the request, and his example was followed by other lords mayor, lords lieutenant. chairmen of country councils, watch committees, chief con stables and town clerks the country over The representative commit tee were formed everywhere to re- cruit the guards whose duties will be to assist the police in the protection of citizens engaged in the mainten- ance of the supply of food and oth- eTwise preserve order.
 Meanwhile the strike situation had developed no important new features up to the early afternoon since the breach of last night, when it was announced by the government that the railway men had rejected an offer of arbitration and a seven days truce.
 The members of the cabinet discus sed plans throughout the forenoon Tor dealing with the situation, while the delegates of the trade unionists who are engaged in a mediation ef- fort remained in almost constant ses- sion, in the endeavor to formulate a method by which the strikers and the government could be brought to- gether again Most of the leaders ex- pressed the hope that mediation would still be found possible. Even the executive officers of the railroad men apparently have decided to aban= don the campaign of speechmak ng throughout the country districts they had planned, the indications being that they would remain in London to be prepared to meet and pass upon any proffer for a solution of the crisis.

COMMISSIONER BR0PHY HAD
 FINE RECORD
Had Been Often Honored At Home By Fellow
 Citizens.

The retirement of John Brophy of Ridgefield from the office of county commissioner removes a faithful and conscientious official from public life. Former Commissioner Brophy, who stepped down a few days ago in favor of Charles H. Hart of Bethel, had served three terms of four years each as commt tssioner. He made a fine record and it was with great re- gret that his associates saw him leave.
 In his home town former Commis- sioner Brophy has been frequently honored with public office. He serv- ed many terms in the General Assem- bly,, representing Ridgefield. His most notable act while in Hartford was his fight to have the law regard ing the commitment of children changed. The old system had al lowed the civil courts to send orphans to work in homes of individuals throughout the county. Often these people would not let parents see their children and many complaints Were received. Due to the efforts of For ter was placed in the jurisdiction of the Probate Court and all trouble was eliminated.
 In his early years MT. Brophy oc- cupied a responsible position in the New York Custom House. Since his residence in Eiidgefield he has served on the School Board and held other offices.
