 Information of the wreck which was received in a telegram to Major Albert Lambert, an official of the race, from Tobermary, Ont, which said the balloon was found near Cove Island.
 The aeronauts' life preservers were not found in the craft and this led Major Lambert to advance the theory that the men may b. on one of the numerous islands in that region, too exhausted to make their way to a telegraph office. Major Lambert has offered a reward of $500 for any in- formation of the men.

MUST DIE IN
 2 YEARS TIME
 TO GET AuIARD
Death Will Not Transfer
 Claim to Dependents.

A Wolkman who dies more than two years after receiving an injury is not entitled to compensation accord ing to the Connecticut Compensation Act and although if he had lived he would be entitled to 520 weeks com pensatiOn he cannot by dying trans fer that claim to his dependents.
 Charles H. Bordman of South Nor walk was working for the Locomo- bile company in this city on Jan- 26, 1916, and while helping to lift an au- tomobile chassis it swung against him and injured his left hip.
 By voluntary agreement with the LoCOmobi1e company he received com pensatiOn to April 6, 1916, the Com pensation Commissioner approving.
 He left the employ of the company shortly afterwards and died of pull nonary tuberculosis on April $, 1918.
 Attorneys Gray x Gray of South Norwalk in behalf of the widow and dependents applied TOT compensation claiming that the tuberculosis result ed from the injury and that they were entitled to either the amount provid- ed by the compensation act when death results from injury or for 520 weeks compensation allowed when the employe is totally incapacitated.
 Compensation Commissioner F r. Buckingham dismissed the claim say ing that 1t was the first time that the contention had been raised under the Connecticut Act and that the cases cited by the attorneys in their brief were decisi ons in other states whose acts differed from ours.

SUES COMPANY ERR DEATH OF
 YOUNG SON
F Year Old Boy Was Flee trocuted By Live
 Wire.

To recover damages for the death of his l ? year old son, who was cleo trocued in May, 1919, by picking up a live wire, John Schneider of Fair field has started suit against the United Illuminating Go. for S10,00O. Papers in the action were filed today in the Superior court.
 Schneider alleges that a highly charged wire strung on the company S poles in Fairfield broke and fell to the ground about a. m. on the day of the fatality. He clamis the com pany's office in this city was notified almost immediately but did not re pair the wire.
 At 1:30 m., the plaintiffs son, John B. Schneider, picked up the wire as he was passing through Cen ter street, Fairfield. The boy was in stantly killed. The father said the fatality was due to the negligence of the company in failing to repair the wire in reasonable time. The com panys defense is it's employees were given the wrong location of the break and went to Southport first instead of Fairfield.

REPORT
 SAYS LINER WRECKED
 ON COAST OF NORWAY
British Admiralty Has Not Been Informed of Disaster Unparalleled in Maritime Annals May Have Been Re turning Troops

Arehaheei Friday, Oct 10 - Two thousand lives have been lost in the wreck of an unnamed British ship on the Norwegian coast, according to a wireless despatch received here from Helsingfors.
 Neither the admiralty nor Lloyds have received any information rela- tive to the wreck of a British ship on the Norwegian coast. At these sources, the report is discredited.
 If the loss of life in the wreck re- ported in the foregoing despatch is as large as indicated, the disaster will mark @ new record in the annals of the sea. It would seem probable the ship which was wrecked was a mili- tary- transport bringing British sol diers from Archangel, which port Great Britain has been embarking large numbers of men during the last month.
 The largest recorded loss of life in marine disaster occurred when the with an iceberg south of New Found deaths showing 1,503 names. The Lusitania, sunk by a German sub marine May ', 1915, carried with her more than 12C0 of her passengers and crew. When the Empress of Ire land was sent to the bottom in the Gulf of St. Lawrence on May 30, 1914, the loss of life was 1,027. One thousand died when the Japanese steamer Kicker Maru sunk in Austra- lian waters on September 2S, 1912.

NEW WAR ON THE BALTIC, PERIL
 ID CAUSE OF PEACE
Deliberately Scheming To Get Control of Huge
 Country.

Cnpenhageni Oct ll,-GermaR and Russian forces under ooWmaRd Fe= sHpetiFeF of General Ven Der 36itz and Get Avaioif= BermoRdt, have at tackled Lettish forces over a wide front In the coastal region about 20 miles south of the city of Riga. Reports reaching here indicate the German Russian onslaught has gained ground at least at some points. and that the own of Shlotsk has been captured.
 Allied powers have the hardest problem they have encountered since the armistice thrust upon them by the German-Russian attack on Riga. It is believed the Lettish government will expect the peace conference to furnish troops to resist General Won Der Goltz and his Russian supporters, but who will furnish the new armies is a very serious question. There is certainly no enthusiasm in Great Britain for embarking on more mil itary expeditions and shedding more British blood.
 Latest news received by the gov ernment is declared as confirming the view that Germany is deliberately scheming to secure a controlling po- sitiOn in Russia and that she proba- billy contenplates the occupation of Petrograd. There are more than 100000 German soldiers with head quarters at Mitau.
 The Baltic states, with the excep- ton of Finland, appear to have agreed on policy of arranging an arnlis- tice with the Bolsheviz government, but declining peace terms on the ground that the soviet government is too unstable to arrange a permanent peace. Altogether, the Baltic situa- tion is recognized as presenting acute ly dangerous possibilities.

 The only apparent hope of avertins a spread of the strike, Or of termi- hating the strike in New York lay in a meeting of the strike committee with the national adjustment com mission. starting at 10 o'clock this morning. This seemed a forlOrn hope, however.
 The coastwise longshoremen's s strike, if made effective it was stated, would add at least 16,O0O to the total number of strikers. Eight thousand
