TRUMBULL DENIES
 ALL ACCUSATIONS
Insists He Had No Understand.
 ing on Ripper Bill
ALCQRN WON'T COMMENT

Assertion Made n Bridgeport That
 Executive Had Agreed to Appoint
 mcnt Of Certain Officials Under
 New Statute.
 Hartford, July g Ex-Governor John H. Trumbull today emphati- cally denied that he had the slight est understanding with the men he appointed to the Bridgeport board of apportionment and taxation, the so-called ripper" board, regarding the appointments they were to make to the office of tax collector, tax at torney or other offices provided for by the ripper" board.
 Makes Hat Denial
 The governors statement Is in ef- feet flat denial of the reports re- terred to In a resolution passed by the Bridgeport common council in which the council asks States At torney Hugh Nj. Alcorn to conduct an investigation into what 1t calls probable evidence of fragrant vio- lation of the corrupt practice act" by Senator Howard c. Challenger who has been appointed tax collec- tor and the governor executive sec retary, Edward |. Kelly. who has been appointed tax collector.
 Concerning Challenger
 Tn connection with Senator Chal- lenger, the Bridgeport council reso- lution said in part: Whereas be- fore the vote of either the com mittee CT the general assembly on this legislation creating the office to which Howard S. Challenger has been appointed, the daily and Sun day newspapers of the city of Bridgeport continuously carried the story that Howard s. Callenger him self, had stated he would be ap- pointed to this office and had stated to some people In the city of Bridgeport he would be appointed to the office Of tax collector, and had further stated that the governor had agreed with Howard Challenger that no member Of the board Of ap- portionment and taxation would be appointed unless they first agreed to his election as tax collector, there fore he 1t resolved, etc
 Governor Trumbull was in the executive offices In the state capitol today following his return last night from his recent trip to Maine where he attended the conference of gov ernors and spent a few days at his summer camp with his family and with Executive Secretary Kelly. The executive secretary was not in the capitol today.
 Alcorn Is silent
 The request of the Bridgeport common council for an investigation into the activities of Senator Chal- lenger and Executive Secretary Kelly reached States Attorney NJ. AIcorn today but the latter officially re- fused to comment on the situation until he had further chance to study the facts.

Declares He Will Re- move All Public Trustees And Dis- charge Every Carnan Who Walks Out In Boston.
Trouble But Technical, Is His Opinion, and Public Servants Should Remain on Job Pending Arbitra- tion.

Boston, July g Fl-Notice that he would remove the Ave public trus- tees of the Boston elevated and dis charge every carman who leaves his work f 8 strike is called over a 'technicality was given to the trustees by Governor Alan T. Full Ter today during a conference with the trustees at the state house. Elm ployes Of the elevated system voted this week to suspend work to force the trustees to reCede from their demand for a change In the method of arbitrating differences.
 Governor Astcnished
 T am astonished. that a strike would be contemplated on the Bos- ton elevated on technicality," the governor said With the utmost esteem for the trustees and the men, desire to say here and now that if there is any cessation of work CT the Boston elevated should consider it so grossly unfair to the public, such a wceful disre- guard of the duty of every one re- sponsibly connected with the ele- vated, that, so far as l have the power, l should remove every one of the trustees will to permit q strike with it's consequent penalty to its 1.500,oo0 patrons and any en- ploye of the elevated that struck would never be employed again, at least as long as I may be governor
 Has No Objections
 T know of no objection to the trustees and employees debating any subject they chose, but l think it is poor judgment for these people. who are less public servants than policemen to even consider a strike to say nothing of seriously con- templaing such contingency
 When inc trustees quit the con- ference. each of them denied that they had resigned.
 Predicts "No Strike"
 There will be no strike" the governor predicted to newspaper men who waited outside of the executive chambers during the con- ference. He also said that he did not fa1or any change in the method of Arhitrating disputes between the elevated trustees and the employees
 The present form of arbitration has stood the test of 14 years" he said, and has been adopted suc- cessfuly by almost every industry V

BRYAN SHOUTS OUT HIS LAST WARNING
Declares Scopes Is Greatly h. turing Teachers of Country
MIGHT CHANGE POLICIES
It Erolutiontsts Win. Hc says, No Teachers Would Re Engaged Without Giving Their Personal Views on Questions.

Dayton. Tenn, July 2 fP-Wil- liam Jennings Bryan believes that John T, Scopes, defendant in the Tennessee evolution trial "Is doing more harm to the teachers of the country than 10 any other class. :" This harm, he said today, would be Indefinitely increased If his (ScopesD views as to the inde- pendence of the teacher were es- tablished"
 Grave Problem Ahead
 If the elolutionists can succeed in establishing the doctrine that a teacher can teach anything she or he pleases," said Mir. Bryan, 'and teachers disregard the wishes of their employers, it will become nec- essary 10 find out before appoint ment what the teacher thinks on disputed questions, because the people who employ teachers will be just as certain to prevent teaching what is objectionable to those who employ the teachers as bankers and business men are to prevent clerks from running the banks contrary to instruction of their employers"
