Following the announcement made by Superintendent Frank L. Kiblins of the local Connecticut Cornpany's lines last night that trolley service on North Main street between Went worth street and the Bethany chapel would be discontinued after June 30, rumors were going the rounds this morning among prominent citizens and some public officials that this was the first step in the war upon the jit- ney service with the intention of put ting them out of business in this city,
 There are more jitneys operating in Bridgeport at the present time than in any other city in the state and it has been admitted by trolley officials that the many people who favor rid ing in the jitneys in preference to the trolleys has struck the trolley conn pany hard and has been the means of them suffering heavy financial losses. ,
 Charles G. Sanford, trustee of the Connecticut Co.,. refused to affirm or deny the rumors when asked about the situation this morning as did MT. Kibling, both saying they had noth- ing to say at present. The appoint ment of manager of the local lines still remains a mystery, no successor having been dppollled LO SuICSeo Joseph s. Goodwin, who resigned on June IS. Commenting on the resig- nation of MT. Goodwin a prominent lawyer of the city said this morning that the resignation of Goodwin was really the first move in the campaign that is to be waged in driving the jitneys out of business.
 According to the runners going the rounds this morning it is planned by the trolley officials to take steps at the next meeting of the state legisla- ture to legislate the jitneys off the streets Of this city with the claim that between the two servers of the public the people prefer the trolleys to the busses. If it comes to show down between the two, the people would most likely favor the trolleys, especially the older people, as they claim it is not safe to ride in the iitneys. Other claims that will prob- ably be cI Aa~ed by the Connecticut Co. are that the jitneys are not in a position to handle completely on all lines in the city and furnish enough transportation facilities to meet the demand.
 That there is some truth in the ru- mors and that there are big doings to come in a shake up of the transporta- ton of the city was admitted by an ex-officials of. the Connecticut Com pany when seen this morning. The jitneys were ruled off the streets in nearly all of the cities in Massa oflu- sets and Rhode Island by the trolley companies in those states and time will produce the same situation in this state with the initial start being made

R. R. CONDITIONS
 HAVE IMPROVED

New Haven, Conn.,, June 2s-Im- proved operating conditions in train and yard service were claimed in the official statement of the New York, New Haven & Hartford rail- road officials today, by reason of re- turn to work of many of those men who had been idle. Passenger ser vice is regarded as normal and the freight train movements are expected to increase.
 The statement follows:
 At New Raven, the labor situation has improved somewhat. This morn ing there are forty-nine men work ing out of a normal of sixty, or elev- en men actually short on the first trick, starting at o'clock.
 stF'or the three shifts or tricks yesterday one hundred and five men worked out of a total of one hundred and sixty-one, leaving flfty-six men out.
 At Meriden both crews have re- turned to work and the conditions are normal at that point
 ''The striking extra gang men who all returned to work, and the major ity of those who left the service at Putnam have returned there being eleven out of eighteen men working this morning, Passenger service has not been af- fected at any time, and freight ser vice will shortly show an improve ment"

 ''The American people desire prog ress and when they come, as come they must to a comprehension that all kinds of selfishness and tyranny interfere with it they will discard their advocates as they discarded the leadership of toryism, nullification and secession.
 Whether we seize the opportunity to lead in a great advance depends solely on ourselves. We have the re. sources, the power, the material force. The only question concerns our moral force. What leadership shall we fol. low? We have come through adver sity, can we bear prosperity?''

ton as its candidate for committee chairman, was declared by his friends to be certain of election though a movement against him had been started by Western delegates
 The candidate of the anti-Glass ele- ment was Senator Walsh of Montana, who supported the peace treaty with the Republican reservations. Those favoring him deciared their fight was not an anti-administration movem ent and was based primarily on the be- lief that the Northwest had not been accorded proper recognition in the convention. No one from that sec tion, they declared, was on the slate of convention officials or was promi- nently mentioned for either the presidency or the vice presidency. Election of the resolutions commit l tee chairman was expected late in the day and at the same time the newly formed credentials committee was to take up the Georgia and Mis- souri contests while the rules com I mittee was determining on a list of permanent officers for the conven- | tion. Senator Robinson of Arkansas, [ had been selected by the administra- l tion group for the permanent chair
 manship and his endorsement by the 1 committee seemed assured.
 ! Contrary to the expectations of 1 many delegates William J. Bryan l was having little to say about the | permanent organization of the con- l vention and it's committees. Busy | with his fight to put "a dry plahk into i the platform he apparently was inter l posing no active opposition to the ad- | ministration organization program ! although he was credited with lending | encouragement to the candidacy o1 Senator Walsh for the resolution ! chairmanship.
 As in more than one previous na tionaI convention MT. Bryan was look l ed upon as an unknown quantit. l which might turn out to be deciding
 factor in almost any of the politica equations now confronting the part. leaders. No one professed to knov
 what new and unexpected element h.

 time.

Directly behind were the seats of the a1ternates and all about then, in a circle were places for more thar LOCO other persons.
 With the exception of patrio- touch given at the start by the pre-. senting of the colors by a deachmen of ma rines, opening prehmmaries were not unlike those of prior conventions The feature was the keynote speecI which is understood to have the ap proval of President Wilson.

TREMENDOUS PROFITS IN
 INDUSTRY

Scranton, Pa, June Exchanges of profiteering and monopolistic control in the anthracite coal industry were made before the Anthracite Coal Com mission today by W. Jett Lauck, for mer secretary Of the war labor board and now consulting economist of the United Mine Workers of America.
 He appeared in hearings on the de- mands of the anthracite workers for wage increases that would bring their earnings to a level with those of the bituminous workers, with a minimum of S6 a day.
 "A survey of the anthracite indus try" he said, shows an increase in net profits of the principal operators for the period of 1916-191S over 1912 1914 of nearly 90 per cent. as com pared with an increase in production during this period of less than 12 per cent. In the case of seven rep resentative mining companies there was an increase in net profits of 69.7 per cent. Expressed in terms of dol lars, the total net income of these companies advanced from an aggre- gate of s29, 9,354,9s9 for the period oof 1e12-1914 to s55,52S,S49 for the period 1916 to 1918, an increase CT s26,17S,s60, or S9.2.
 ''The net income earned by these companies on their capital stock out standing during the period of 1916-191s ranged from 204 per cent. to 36.6 per cent, as compared with a net income in 1912-1914 ranging from 14-2 per cent. to 13.9 per cent"
 The Lehigh Valley Coal Sales Com pany, Lauck said, had paid since 1910 annual dividends at an average rate of nearly 20 per cent. The Delaware, LIackawanna and Western Coal Com pany since 1909 had paid 300 per cent. in dividends, and the Philadelphia and Reading Company during the war years increased its profits nearly 800 per cent.

My Fellow Democrats:

My fellOW OenOCIaISs
 Led through a labyrinth of devious political pathways. lost in the mazes of political trickery, following the Pied Pipers of. Republicanism, the Chicago convention emerged upon the well-paved roadway of standpatism.
 That heterogeneous mass promu1- gated a remarkable document - re- markable in the fact that it is masterly exemplihcation of the art of evasion. Not content with the direct insult to the intelligence of the pro gressive elements wrongly placed in their ranks, they once more surren- dered the control of their party to the old forces of reaction and nomi- mated a leader of that dynasty of dollars, against whose influence the common people rebelled until the great movement of progressfvism drove 1t from power and installed in it's stead a party truly representative of the people.
 In marked contrast to the gather ing of the opposition, we have met
 today to deal with living issues and
 to advise the people of America and
 of the world of Democracys stand
 upon the question of the hour. It
 Is with justifable confidence of pre- that we approach tbe important work
 of presenting a platform and naming a candidate, for we offer to America an assurance based on achievement. We present a pledge founded on per formance.
 The Republican party would turn backward, unmindful of the hopes and aspirations of forward-looking
 men and women. and would have us restore to power reactionary forces | which could only result in ruin and disaster, but we will continue to keep our eyes to the front and will hold to the path that during eight
 glorious years has led America to prosperity, peace and world leader ship.
 Our opponents speak to the people in the language of yesterday. They see only through the lenses of reac- ton. Through years of retrogresSi on | their party has now reached the de- cadent stage. The Chicago platform | stamps it as a party of destruction. | It's declaration of principles condemns | but suggests no remedy either for real | or fancied ills. It is out of tune with | free people everywhere; it is out of 1 harmony with the worlds desire it no longer, as in the days of it's re- | birth, stands as a giant championing

BRYAN PLANK ON
 PR0FITEERINC Proposes State Body Simi- !, lar To Federal Trade Commission.

San Francisco, June 2S.---State com- missions similar to the federal trade commission to prevent profiteering are a feature of a plank on profite ering proposed by William J. Bryan.
 The plank pledges the party to s'en- deavor to eliminate all unnecessary middlemen by the encouragement of organizations among producers that will bring those whoT sell and those who use nearer together" Laws are urged to prevent excessive charges by such middlemen as are necessary. Corporation officers and employees who give or carry out instructions that re- suit in extortion would be subject to prosecution. Corporations would be required to disclose to customers the difference between cost price and sell ing price. Profits would be limited as the rate of interest now is limited.

INCREASE PRODUCTION
 TO DECREASE H. (. E.

Burlington, Vt. June 2S-Increased production in order to reduce the cost of living was urged by Governor Cool idge of Massachusetts at the Univer- sity of Vermont commencement to- day. The degree of doctor of laws was conferred upon him.
 ''It is absolutely impossible for the public to evade or shift the burden of meeting the cost of the war and pay ing the public debt,'' he said. This is our part of the price of victory. Until this is met a higher range of costs will be the price of prosperity. There has been and still is in some cases a range of artificially high prices which has not been caused by but has re- suited in profiteering. This is always the result of a long process and its application requires patience and fore bearance.
 The conflicts of the past six years have strengthened the determination
