That there is such a plan on foot is evident from the follow ing which appeared in last nights Waterbury American:
 The machine appears anxious to roll the starch out of Senator Tenn pleton's aspirations for governorship, it would appear from information ob- tained from excellent sources. Ger tain leaders, fearing Senator Temple tons strength. have tried to head him off by rendering him on the prover- bial platter nominations for other of ices on the ticket.

.34 FOR JITNEYS
 [ FOR TR0LLEYS

Thirty-four readers of the Times had voted for jitney service in prefer ence to tro1leys at noon today while seven preferred the trolleys. Quite a few of those who voted favor the jitneys, but add that they would fav- or the trolleys if the trolleys would come down to five cents.
 One man who favors the trolley wrote on the coupon: ''The trolleys are tired; let them take a rest"
 Another wrote that "the trolleys could use the interurban lines at req sonable fares"
 The coupon for the vote will be found today on page 10.

OF THE REDS
 STOPS
Poles, Aided By Allied Officers, Stiffen, the Defense of Warsaw and Some Parts of the Bolsheviki Army is Beaten Back.

b London, Aug. Russian Bolshe- wiki armies hammering the Polish lines northeast and east of Warsaw With the exception of the area around Brest Litovsk, east of the Polish capital, no new advances by Soviet troops have been reported and even there they have been limited by the desperate fighting of the Poles.
 Polish forces have been forced to retire from Terespol, four miles west of Brest Litovsk and have lost Muramiec, five miles to the south. Thus the Bolsheviki have gained a foothold on the west bank of the Bug river in this reg1on but it is probable their further progress will be very slow as permanent forts erected years ago to defend the city must be storm ed if the Soviet legions are to gain ground there.
 the Bug river, the Polish have and have succeeded in driving back across the river Bolshevik detach- ments which had succeeded in reach ing the left bank of the stream. Further north along the battle front toward the east Prussian frontier a great battle is being fought but no details of the outcome have been giv- en in late despatches.
 In the southern sectors of the front fighting of a serious nature is going on and the Poles seem to be gaining ground at some points.
