 Vessels of all types of construc- ton intended for bulk oil carrying, and built in the last 12 months. amounted to IA of 602399 tons.

 Some 209 vessels of ,395.92 tons were fitted for burning oil fuel dur ing the year. and whereas in July, 1914, the vessels so fitted totaled 1.310.209 tons. the figures for July, 1922. were 14464,1 ,162 tons.

hnder orders from his physician to reduce himself sixty pounds. The stout man said that the doctor had told him that unless he made good in reducing that he might notify the undertaken. The gymnasium attend ant said the "ship1my machine" would do the trick and immediately started work on the fat man. The fat man made round trip to Braemen, Ger many on the America and every day for several hours he was held in the. embrace of the "shimmy machine"
 Late each afternoon, following his session with the "shimmy machine the fat man would step on the scales in the presence of a crowd of pas sengers and each day saw a decrease in weight. The fat man literally shimmied his way across the Atlantic and after five days in Germany he returned to the ship to continue his training and when the port of New York was finally reached he had lost the sixty pounds necessary to the sav- ing of his life. Thereafter the "shim- my machine" became the vogue not only on the steamshA America but the big liner George Wilmington.
 It is the women Travellers who arc making the most of the new iunova- ton and during the trip across and back the fair sex seem to dominate the gymnasium of the two big liners. The gymnasium attendants have a regular course for their patients and those who follow instructions claim to get results. After the 'shimmy machine" session and a shower the seekers after reduction go for long walks around the decks and then visit the scales to visualize the results of their efforts.

The t'Shimmy Machine" in action.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-Ever7 woman, whether she be Ay-weight sylph or double-chinned enchantress, is more worried over increasing avoirdupois than any other problem that >besets Ger days. Women travel CTS on the vessels of the United States Lincs fleet have made an amazing, and at the same time prac- tical discovery. They have found what they claim to be sure method for the taking off of superhuous flesh. And, it might be stated, men jealous of their figures are making use of the new discovery.
 In the gyfnnasiums of the steam- ships George Washington and Amer ica there has recently been installed two exercising machines which fur nish solace and gleaining hope to stout folk. The apparatus has be- come known as the "shinmy ma chine" because of the gyrations through which the user of the con- trivance is put when in the grip of the flesh reducer. The principle of the mechanism IS that of vibration. A canvas girdle encircling the mid rift section of the seeker after slim ness is attached to an oscillating de- vice, and when the electric power is applied the patient is shaken in a manner that is fearsomely fat defy ing The shaking of mouse by a cat is mild comparison. The "shim- my machine" is capable of shaking a mountain of fat with the ease of a strenuous housewife shaking a plate of jelly.

Ellen MahOn Is
 Freed By Order Of Judge Jennings

By an order issued by Judge Newell Jennings of the Superior Court, Ellen Mahcn, who applied for a divorce from David A. Johnson, is again free.
 At the time of the divorce proceed ings held here June Is, last, Judge Jennings was unable to determine whether there had been a marriage ceremony or not, since no marriage certificate was presented to the court.
 Mrs Ellen Johnson was 16 years old, when on October 24, 1920, David Johnson, local taXicab driver. asked her to take a ride to New Haven with him. She consented and when the couple were approaching the Elm City he asked her to marry him showing her a license he had already procured. They went to New Haven, just where, Mrs. Johnson could not recall, and were married.
 When she returned and told her mother, sanction to the marriage was not given and Ellen was sent back to school. No one save the imme ediate members of the Johnson family ever knew of the marriage and she re- nnained Ellen Mahon.
 During the testimony al the hear ing before Judge Jennings it was shown that Johnson represented FL lens age as 21. On this action, di- vorcc was asked for on the ground that a fraudulent contract had been made.

Insurgents To
 Meet Tonight
Somewhere" in Bridge port to Be Scene of Democratic Rebels" Meeting.

Democrats from the various parts of the city who are opposed to the control of the party by Town chair man John A. Cornell and the present executive committee, eight of whom are office holders. are expectd to met tonight "somewhere' in Bridge port. to lay plans for the wrestling control of the Town committee and the town chairmanship from Cornell. Those who are in the know of the 1nsurgent camp, refuse to state where the meeting will be held but it is as- cribd to the Twelfth district.
 The inSurgent Democrats say that the distribution of patronage under Cornell was unfair and that he gave political jobs to members of the executive committee in order to be able to hold an axe over their heads. One man control is another charge of the insurgents who through their leaders say that they are not going to wreck the party but purge it.
 They will attempt to correct the alleged corruption of having mem berS of the executive committee hold puhlsc office Revision of the rules of the organization will be attempted.
 The administration charges that the leaders and followers of the in surgent movement are "soreheadS' and 'disgrunted job seekers"
 Town Chairman Cornell is ex- pected to arrive in Bridgeport today end one of the first things he will do will be the calling of a meeting of the town committee to consider the mat ters now confronting the party.

Echo Of Firecrackers
 Heard Despite Showers

Unfavorab1e weather and frequent showers failed to dampen the Fourth of July enthusiasm of citizens in and about Bridgeport bent on celebrating g 1ndep endence Day in a good old fash it'ned manner. Explosions of giant hreCrackerS ana torpedos echoed through the streets all day yesterday and the night before the Fourth. Youngsters came out at dawn and shot off all their fireworks at once, then had to wait patiently until darkness fell to shoot off their night skyrock cts Roman candles and rinwheels.
 A shower at g o'clock took all the patriotic vim out of baseball fans when the Bridgeport Hartford game was called off because of rain. A game was played at Hartford in the afternoon, Bridgeport scoring a vic tory over the Capitol City team.
 At Fairfield the Fourth celebration was held indoors. The Milford Yacht club carried off it's yachting events without a hitch. 4 diving exhibition conducted by the club was won by Miss Alice Perkins and Lila De Witt. A dance was held in the evening at the clubhouse.

Mayor Feels
 AttackOn Cornell Unfair

Mayor Atwater is undisturbed by the rumblings of party discord in the Democratic ranks. He does feel, how ever, that the town chairman is un- justly attacked by patronage critics and says that he is the one to pick on and not the town chairman. The mayor will carry out his prediction pledges of economy and diminished operating expenses of the city and a lowered tax rate.
 .If we place people in jobs where there is no work we cannot carry out our economy policy" Mayor Atwater said. He pointed out that it cost approximately $9,0OO,O0O to run the city last year while the budget for the current year shows a saving of approximately S1,3OO,00O. The mayor further declared that he wanted to give the tax payer 100 cents for every dollar and that he didn't care rap for re-nomination.
