QUIGLEY FAYORS ALLING
 BUT IS SILENT ON JUDD
msurgent Republicans Do not En- thuse Over Selection of G. O. r.
 For Representative.

"I believe Judge filling will make a good senator" ex-Mayor George A. Quigley, leader of the insurgent republicans, said this afternoon, but he declined to discuss the remainder of the ticket which includes William H. Judd, republican town committee chairman, and leader of the repub- lican faction which he opposes, as a candidate for representative.
 The selection of Richard Covert as candidate for republican state cen tral committeeman, which is gener- ally conceded to be a compromise to win over the Quigley support, has not yet brought unqualified support from the Quigleyites, their leaders refusal to discuss the ticket today indicated.
 The candidacy of Judd is contin- gent upon developments between now and the time for the republican primary, he said today. If business requirements are not such as will prevent his service in the legislature he will run, he explained.
 Representative Rackliffe is willing to return to the general assembly if it appears to be the wish of hS party that he be candidate, he saiG today. His desire to continue in public service is only in that event, he assured reporter.

Demands Adopting of Debt
 Funding Programs

Paris, July 16 P)-The govern ment will insist upon the ratifica- ton of both the Washington and London debt funding agreements before parliament adjourns for it's summer recess, Finance Minister CaillauX told the chambers finance committee today.
 "Without these notifications" he said, there is no possible chance of getting credits for the stabiliza- ton of the franc"
 The bill asking full powers for the government to solve the fnan- cial embroglio, which was referred to the finance committee of the chamber is composed of two short articles. The first reads:
 "The government is authorized until November 30, 1926, to enact by decrees, approved by the coun- cil of ministers, all measures neces- sary to financial restoration and sta bilization of the currency"
 The second article reads: "Al decrees involving new financial measures will be submitted for leg islative ratification at the opening of the regular session in 1927, but the measures decreed will remain definitely in force."
 The preamble to the bill says the government must act promptly and that financial plans submitted will not stand any amendment but must be accepted or rejected as a whole. The fiscal measures will entail no new taxes and no radical modifica- tion in the existing system.

 Restoration of water supply in the cottage made during the night was an act of Mrs. Hemming' s friends among the cottagers. The water comes from an artesian well behind the cottage and the guards during Tuesday night with a wrench took off a coupling. Last night while several women were calling on Mrs. Hemming she told them how the house supply was piped and the callers apparently passed the word along to the men and they replaced the coupling and this morning Mrs. Hemming was able to pump a sup ply of water for her needs.
 Among callers on Mrs. Hemming last night was Dr. filling of New Haven who prescribed for her, she claiming that her nerves were "jumpety." Today she was quite composed.
 The small tent which two guards on Tuesday hat pitched for their accommodations during the night and which was close up to the cot tage was empty of furnishings to- day.
