PASS PAVING RESOLUTION
Property Owners Do Not Favor Con-
struction of Sewer.


There was copious mastication of
the W. k. textile remnant when the
question of paving a stretch of streets
to connect the paving OF North To
peka avenue with the hard-surfaced
stretch of the Victory Highway known
as the lower Silver Lake road, came
before the city commission this morn
ing.
The commission passed the resolu-
ton providing for the paving. There
were present five property owners
along the proposed improvement, with
D. H. Brannaman, former city attor-
ney as their legal representative.
Brannaman informed the commits
sion that he understood that there is
unofficially connected with the plan
for paving, a plan for sewering the
district, and that the cost of the sew
ering and paving together would
amount to confiscation of the prop
erty along the route.
There was much discussion of the
project, which ended in the recon-
mendation of Mayor Herbert ]. Cor
wine that the street commissioner,
w. S. Hancock, Brannaman, and the
property owners hold an informal
conference and attempt to accomplish
a thoro understanding of the project
and it's cost
The filing of a protest against the
paving is still within the power of the
property owners. The protestants. led
by James Herrick, indicated today to
the commission that they will not OBJ
ject to the paving but that they will
oppose the construction of a sewer at
the same time.

DURANT AFTER
 LOCO FACTORY

W. c. Durant. head of the Durant Motors company, and formerly head of the General Motors company, was in Bridgeport yesterday to inspect the plant of the LocomooIIe com pany, with the end in view of making an offer to the receivers of that com pany.
 After the inspection a conference was held, at which MT. Durant, the receivers, Edmund s. Wolfe and El- mer H. Ravens, and their counsel, John S. Pullman. were present. It was learned that the offer which is to be made at the creditors meeting scheduled in New York today, is &C., ceptable to the receivers. Just what the amount to be offered the credit ors today by Durant is, could not be learned but it is reported to be near the S2,00O,00O mark.
 If Durant acquires the Locom obi1e plant it is believed that he will con- tinue to make a high grade car here. The Durant car, in probability, will not be made here but will be made in its present factory
 Durant also has plans to manufac- ture a four-cylinder fve-Ipasenger car to sell for s34S, 120.000 of which will be put on the market the first year.

POLICE FAIL TO
 0VERTkKE TRUCK

A heavy truck load of furniture escaping the clutches of the Milford police yesterday caused considerable commotion in the otherwise even tenor of the lives of Mir. and Mrs. George Sherwood and Mrs. Willis W. Wilmot, of that town. The truck is still at large.
 The Sherwoods purchased the fur nished house at 21 Highland avenue. Milford, four and a half years ago and agreed to pay for it by a specf- fled sum down and monthly payments according to Mrs. Wilmot. who seeks the furniture. She states that the payments are nine months in arrears and that a lien was issued on the property by town officials for taxes due, several weeks ago.
 When the date for dispossession came Mrs. Sherwood asked for a day of grace, nd was soon seen superln- tending the removal of household furnishings. Mrs. Wilmot was in formed by telephone and arrived as a piano was in transit. She sounded the alarm to the police just as the truck got under way. The truck is still on its way. evidently. for the po- lice osal6 not catch it even though they 1sa out in q touring car.
