WELCOME TO BRIDGEPORT.
 DAVID

Everybody who travels the river road to Derby knows the big vel low mansion, at Putney center, in which David Boothe lives, and the big four dialed clock, in the tower over the barn.
 David is well-to-do and gener- ous: also patriotic. When the Whippet tank came along, yester- day afternoon. David said: Put the tank through it's paces right here, and I'll do the right thing by Uncle Sam" The tank gracefully greensward, and David took SS. 900 in Victory bonds, which was twice the total government asked of Putney. Then he subscribed $4,- 900 more for the credit of Bridge port. whereby hangs a tale.
 David bought the clock, which is worth a great deal of money, and 1t told the time right merrily, for all the public. Along came a Stratford assessor with a mean dis position, and put the clock on the tax list of the town, as if it were 6 luxury instead of benef1cence.
 He kept the clock, but discon- nected the hands.
 When David Boothe has occa- sion to go abroad he generally ar ranres his intinerary to avoid stratford Center. He doesn't ex- actly hate the sight of the place, but he does like Bridgeport. Da- yid will be welcome in Bridgeport when he makes up his mind to move in.

Captain Cronan Believes One of Lashar Bandits
 Entirely Innocent.

Daniel Llydicksen, the 19-year-old accomplice in the blackmailing at tempt against Walter B. Lashar, was bound over to the Superior court un- der 5000 bonds by the City court this morning.
 Efforts on the part of Lydicksen's counsel to question the jurisdiction of the Bridgeport City court failed. Judge Wilder found no grounds to appeared to credit the contention of the city attorney that the crime was committed within the courts baii- wick
 Captain Edward J. Cronan of the Detective Bureau expresses his opin- ion that the boy is innocent of the charge and believes there is no con nection in the relations of the boy with William J. Haggerty, the princi- pal in the crime.
 Haggerty was bound over by the City court last week without exam ination after the court was informed that detectives had arrested him af- ter he had taken a decoy package of imitation money from a planted mail box on Bruce street, Stratford.- The package had been placed there fol- lowing instructions received in a blackInailing letter addressed to Wal ter B. Lashar and later turned over to the police.
 Lydicksen claims that on account of the recent papering of his room he went out to get some fresh air and while strollfng along Bruce street was told by some boys that there were some tramps hiding in the bushes nearby. The supposed tramps were po- lice detectives lying in wait for the 11I oIr 10 visit the mail box and get possession of the demanded ransom.

ENGLISH PAPERS
 PRAISE WILSON,; FRENCH CRITICISE

Paris, April 24-As to the gravity of the peace conference crisis there are no two opinions in France today. There is agreement, also, that no stone must be left unturned to find a solution.
 As to the causes. views differ wide ly. The more conservative opinion, as represented by organs which in clude the Figaro. is inclined to depIore President Wilson's action in making his statement public, as likely to do more harm than good.
 Its evident object the Figaro says, fis to transfer to the market place negotiations and discussions much better carried on in calm and privacy. What was only difference might thus be transformed into 8 quarrel"
 Nj. St. Brice in Le Journal says: The incident was the result of the manifold mistakes made by all part ies. The Italians, he thinks, commit ted a gross blunder in publishing their claims in advance, thus elimi- mating all possibility of maneuvering.
 Tt was a bad start which weighed heavily on the negotiations from the first" he continues "and the discus sions only a.ccentuated the points of difference. The compromise plan left by President Wilson when he with drew from the council of four on April q might have had some chance of success if it had been put forth by an independent arbitrator, but France and England could not very well en- dorse a proposal at variance with the treaty of London

 The Italian press as a whole con- siders that the withdrawal of the Italian delegation from the Peace Conference is inevitable if Italys as pirations are not to be recognized. Should this be the case, 1t is forecast in political circles that Premier Or lando and Foreign Minister Sonnino will return and offer their resigna- tions to the parliament, which will unanimously reject them, and that they will be confirmed in the tenure of their office by all parties, inside and outside of parliament, with a man date to uphold what are considered Italy's rights with complete unity and by all means.
