Man Badly Hurt As
 John Smith

At death's door in St. Vincent's hos pttal, the man struck and fatally in 1ured by a trolley car at Fairfield avenue and Broad street last night was identified this morning as John F. Smith of 1s6 West Liberty street. He has been a resident of Bridgeport for tn. past four years, and during most of that time has been employed in the receiving department Of the Howland Dry Goods Company, repre- sentatives of the concern having 1den- flied the man this morning.
 Smith was on his way home at 9:4o o'clock last night when he was struck by the car a few feet past the inter section of Broad street. According to the story of Motorman Arthur J. Bou- do,1in of 1926 Noble avenue the troll lev which was on the Stratfeld-Sea- view avenue line, was running very slowly, having s1ackened speed to cross Broad street. A few feet pe- yond, Smith suddenly stepped from in into the right front door of the trolley.
 Smith was knocked to the ground, and is believed to have received his Injuries when his head came in con tact with the pavement. The car was going so slowly that it was stopped before its length had passed the pros trate man.
 Dr. B. J. Burns of the Emergency Hospital was called and immediately removed Smith to St. Vincent's, suf- skull, and possible internal injuries. At noon today his condition was re- ported as critical.
 Motorrnan DorIey and Conductor Bondine, who were in charge of the car which struck Smith, have not been arrested as yet, but will be taken into custody if the mans injuries prove fatal.

Democratic Candidate
 Has Splendid Record

Fred Atwater, Democratic candi- date for Mayor of Bridgeport, is descendant of one of the oldest Demo- cratic families in the state. One of his ancestors was mayor of Derby, an- other was a member of the legisla- ture, and all of his people have been active Democrats and prominent men in their communities. His father was a we'll known man in this city, being president of the Peoples Savings Bank.
 MT. Atwater is 51 years of age, al- though he looks to be a younger man. He attended the public schools of this city, upon the completion of his stud ies becoming associated with the Nal leable Iron company. He was mar rted in 1894, is the father of two girls, and is also a grandfather. | Since 1903 he has been with the Columbia Nut and Bolt company which he organized and of which he | is treasurer.
 The only political experience that he has ever had was a member of the paving and sewer commission, to Lee when he was mayor. Atwater resigned from that body after five years of service, however because he felt he could not sign the Warrenite contracts advocated by Mayor Wilson. MT. Atwater is an active member of the Fifth District Democratic club and has always been interested in the vel fare of the party, although he has studiously avoided public office until the present time. The demand for him this year was a curious thing, as he made no advance for the office but seemed to be brought to the front by a spontaneous demand, absolutely un- fostered by any faction. It is thought that many old time Democrats who nave not been to the polls in years, will come out to vote this time be- cause they well remember the family of the candidate and know what sort of people they have always been.
 Socially MT. Atwater has been very prominent for a long time. His ex- tremely democratic character has won him hundreds of good friends and he Is popular wherever he goes. He is president of the Kiwanis club and also "a member of the Algonquin and Brook lawn clubs..
 AS a business man he is known as possessing the highest attachments. In addition to his own business he Is a director of the Peoples Savings bank and the Manufacturers Insurance Lia- bility company.

 Recognition
 For Women

Miss Josephine Kiely, the first woman in the history of Bridgeport to be nominated for an important po- itical office, is a woman born and bred in Bridgeport. Selected from among thousands to be the stanard- bearer of her sex, she was nominate ed last night on the Democratic ticket to run for the office of town clerk.
 There is very little for me to say" she stated this morning to Times reporter. "I accepted the nom ination and 1 want to offer my sincere thanks to the people who have and will place their faith in me. I feel that my nomination is more of a recognition of the part women of Bridgeport have played in public life than it is a personal reward. How evere, as the men usually say. I cer- tainly will do my very best if I am e1ected.''
 Miss Kie1y was born in Bridgeport 30 years ago, and attended the paro- chiaI schools of this city. She resides at 34S Connecticut avenue, and for some timo has been connected with the Birdseye, Sonera Corset Company of Connecticut avenue in the capacity of forelady.

Is
 In Serious Condition
Death May Result From Fractured Skull Sus- tained in Auto Crash On Post Road.

Another fatal automobile crash on the Boston Post road. the second in last evening a short distance over the Fairfield line on Fairfield avenue. Edward F4nnesan, 797 North avenue, died before he could be taken to a hospital, and Nathan B. Olmstead, 255 French street. driving a Haynes car belonging to the Peck & Lines garage on Middle street. is at St. Vincent's hospital, and may die as the result Of a fractured skull and other injur- les. The machine was almost totally demolished when Olmstead apparent " tried to cross in front of an ap- preaching trolley in order to get to the right side of the roadway.
 The trolley, Norwalk, bound, had stopped at Ash Creek, and had enter ed the single track, which is in the center of the roadway, and was trav- cling comparatively slow, there being gradual up grade at this point. From the looks of the automobile, the left front or which crashed into the troll ley, the machine must have been go- ing at high rate of speed. It Is thought that one of several chuck" holes In the roadway may have pre- vented the driver making safe pas- sage.
 pr. John T. Powers, 64s Noble ave- nue, who was in a machine closely following the doomed machine, ad- nainistered first aid, and rushed the victims to the hospital in his own machine. although Bridgeport ambu- lances summoned were soon on the scene. Passengers on the trolley, which had reached a point about half way between Grasmere avenue and the old Grasmere farm gate, were con- siderably shaken up by the impact, and a near panic was narrowly avert ed.
 Coroner John J. Phelan will con- duct an inquest at 9:30 Monday morning at the County court house. In the meantime the Fairfield police are investigating, but up to noon to- day had not placed Olmstead under arrest. Both men were employees of the Peck & Lines garage, the dead man having been a foreman at the establishment. FinneEan's family did not know of the accident until o'clock this morning, the man finally being identified at the Rourke & Boucher morgue, on Washington ave- nue, through means of initials on 8 watch, where the monogram, "E. M. F." appeared.
 The Bridgeport police will assist Tn the investigation.
 A bulletin by pr. D, J. Mccarthy of Washington avenue, at noon today said that Olnstead was suffering from q concussion of the brain. possible fracture of the skull. and severe la cerations of the face and head It will be early In the week before 1t can be decided whether the man has a chance for recovery.

 Contrary views were expressed as to the view point of the conferences. report was current in official circles that the British delegation was pessi- mistic and that the Irish envoys feared that the conference might end next week. On the other hand the Daily Express said that There is entire sat isfaction both sides over the amount of progress made so far.

Close Saloons By
 Injunction
Further Evidence. of the Crusade Authorities Are To Wage - Ask Mayors to Co-operate.

Hartford, Oct. 1.-The campaign of Director Harry E.. Mackenzie to rid the state of saloons violating the Vol stead act was well under way today, with requests of the director in the hands of the mayors of all the cities of the state requesting cooperation of local officials in the attempt to put a stop to illicit liquor traffic. The announcement that District Attorney Edward L. Smith will proceed by Fed eral injunction to close places found to be doing business illegally has cleared up the uncertainty as to the method to be employed in carrying out the expressed intention of MT. Mackenzie tC seal saloons discpvered selling liquor of more than one half of one per cent. alcohol, concerning which there was much uncertainty yesterday.
 Evidence of cooperation of local authorities was evident in the raids and seizures of liquor in several places, notably New Haven and this city and the raiding in New Britain of a saloon which refused to obey the order of Chief of Police Rawlings to close its doors.
 In Hartford the police seized a 25 gallon still operating in the Bond street garage of Santo Motta and con- fiscated IA barrels of mash.
 In New Haven the police held up an automobile leaving the warehouse of the Connecticut Distributing and
