labor does not begin TO justify
the increased price in any com

fnanently relieve the high cost Of

it will be necessary to go to the
grass roots or 10 the source OF
the stream and gradually work
to the head waters. There must
be corresponding decrease at
all points. Prices now as always
are governed by supply and de
mand. There is existing the

BRIDGEPORT GROCER
 RECEIVER TO REMAIN

The claim of Samuel Rosenberg of s453 against the Bridgeport Grocers' Syndicate was denied this morning by decision handed down by Judge Curtis Rosenberg claimed he had loaned the money to the syndicate just before it went into the hands of a receiver. The receiver declared Rosenberg gave his check as security for a subscriber who had not paid for his stock.
 The receivers report accepted by the court showed a balance of s6,- 97S.44 after all claims had been paid. Receiver Irving Elson asked that he be allowed to continue in office longer because there are several suits that must be instituted against persons who have not paid for their stock subscriptions.

FEWER ALIENS
 GO ABROAD

Very few aliens are leaving the city at the present time, according to a abatement made by State Permit Agent Frank R. Weaver, who was at the Custom House today, granting passports to those who have declared their intentions of returning to their own countries in Europe. Statistics show that only 25 per cent. of the alien citizens are making applications for passports and these are of the opinion that they will come back to this country.
 There are a great many whom we 4lrge to leave the country" MT. Weaver said today, "and there are also some whom we desire to remain here. A few months ago aliens left in large numbers. but conditions ex- .isting in Europe now tend to make some think over the situations before olaking the change. Then also, the knowledge that it will be more diff1- cult to come back here prevents some from leaving the country"
 Nearly two months ago there were as many as fifty or more applicants for passports during the permit agents stay in the city, and today there were hardly fifteen. MT. Weaver is in Bridgeport every Tuesday.

NO FOUL PLAY IN
 HILDA OLSEN CASE.

That there was no foul play in the case of Hilda Olsen, the masseuse found dead in her apartments in Greenwich last week. is the conclu- sion of Medical Examiner J. A Clarke of Greenwich, in a report received to- day by Coroner Phelan. The medi- cal examiner said that although the reports that the woman had met with foul play, he was satisfied that death was due to natural causes.
 The coroner has not yet made a finding in the case of David Hale, the eight year old Danbury boy struck by Miss Florence Walsh's automobile last week.

SENT $2T7 TO
 WIFE IN SPAIN
cContinued from Page 1.)


 Rochei is a sweeper in the employ of the Columbia Graphophone Com pany and boards on Howard avenue. He left work at nine o'clock last night, and as he passed through the gate he met two men whom he con- sidered friends. They had heard of Jose talking of returning to Spain and they knew he had plenty of money-or at least they thought he had-for Jose had purchased Liberty bonds for cash at every loan. The men told him they would get him a passport in ten minutes if he would jump into an auto they had waiting.
 Without any suspicion of evil-doing Jose hopped in the auto, and shortly after found himself In the woods. The two men jumped out of the car, and while one pinned the Spaniard's arms to his sides, the other pressed a wet cloth over his nose and mouth. This was at about 9:15 p. m. The next thing Jose emenbered was coming to under a tree with terrible pains in his jaw and head He discovered the loss of his teeth, and his S6, but could not passport.
 Wandering back to town he found it was past midnight, but could not account for the elapsed three hours. He went home, and early this morn ing appeared at police headquarters on the advice of one of the Colum- bia officials. The odor on his clothes established the fact chloro- form had been used.
 Captain Cronan dispatched two de- tectives to locate the robbers as the Spaniard claimed he knew them well and where they lived. Up until press ghour no report had been made.

STAMFORD
Especial to The Times.)

Stratford, June 1.-The cost of laying the curb along Barnum avenue, the work being done by William Ar thur, who has laid the concrete pave ment over that street, is 95 cents a linear foot. While there was one other bid, that of Jackson & Green 90 cents a foot it was decided at the recent meeting of the board of select men that as such good work had been done on the street paving it would be good business to let MT. Arthur have the contract. MT. Arthur guarantees to keep the curb in repair for five years as well as the pavement, a fact which was considered by the town fathers as being a big item.
 The curbing which is 20 inches high by 10 inches wide at the base taper ing to six inches at the top presents very fine appearance and consider able favorable comment is heard from those people who have viewed the long stretch that has already been laid. This curbing and gutter is to be laid on each side of Main street from the top of Franklin hill to the city line.
