City Faces Bridge
 Suit For Half Million

City Attorney William H. Com1ey Is struggling with the accumulated mass of claims against the city which have grown out of the construction of the Stratford avenue bridge. Bridgeport has been unfortunate in it's relations with bridges ever since the day, thirty years ago, more or less, when the Yellow Mill bridge gave rise to various annoyances,
 The contractors for the Stratford avenue bridge claim that they were delayed some six months by the fail ure of the city to have the eastern approach ready, They claim they were delayed by the failure of the company which was to furnish the steel, and did not, and that these wo factors brought the bridge into the war period of high cost of labor and materials.
 When asked about these claims to- day City Attorney Comley expressed the opinion that the total of the de- mands will add to half a million, He explained that the delay in respect to the eastern approach was caused by the litigation of property holders, the Noble estate and other. and would not give possession to the City, He explained the default of the steel com pany as due to an embargo placed up- on the shipment of materials by the United States government, during the war,
 At any rate all these items of de lay caused the construction of the bridge to lag until the war was over,
 The contractors were Holbrook, Cabot and Rollins of Boston.
 City Attorney Comley apparently does not expect that suit will be brought against the city, at least dur= ing his term of efficer

Locations For
 Primaries Have Been Changed

In the official announcement of the places at which the Republican pri- maries will be held in the various districts of the city, several changes have been made from the original plans. In the Fifth district the Ju- nior High school will be used instead of the Maplewood school because it has better facilities for accommodat- ing the voters, in the Tenth district the Barnum avenue school will be used instead of Kossuth school, be- cause it developed in the recent meeting of the town Republican com
 nittee that the Kossuth school is ac- tuaIly not in the Tenth district, and in the Twelfth district the Summer field school has been abandoned in favor of Lincoln school because it was found that the former has not the necessary lights for an evening meet ing.
 Secretary J. Alex H. Robinson said today that the changes in place had been discussed by the town commit tee and that he had taken them up with Town Chairman John Leonard at Wallingford, with whose approval they fully met.

No Mystery,

 Says Havens

'"There was no mystery and there was no secrecy hotly declared Col. Elmer H. Ravens this morning deny ing reports that a secret caucus had name a delegate tickets for the Re- publican primaries. 'A1l that hap pened," he stated, was that a group of from 20 to 25 interested men and women assembled at my home last week to discuss the primaries as they applied to our district We went over a great many names and selected three who we believed would make good to submit these names to the caucuses of the Republican Voters League and the Fifth District Republican club when they met"
 The delegate candidates who have the endorsement of those who met at Col. Havens' home are David w. Price, Mrs Elmer Haven, and Andrew Coop CT. MT. Ravens stated that he had appearing on the list but that the oth- CTS present had insisted upon it.
 The Republican Voters League will meet in the Fifth district tonight and the Fifth District Republican club will hold it's caucus tomorrow night It is considered probable that the above mentioned names will be the choice of the two organizations as they are both strongly anti-Wilson.
 The statement that angered MT. Ravens appeared this morning and was to the effect that a secret caucus, surrounded by political mystery had been held at his house and that no official information as to what had transpired was available. Hr. Ravens branded the story as cheap politics.
 Some excitement was caused in the Fifth district by the publication of what was intended to be an official advertisement of the club to the effect that @ meeting will be held tomorrow night Through an error the word secretary was omitted after the signature of Town Clerk c. D. Winton,
