Preliminary steps in a campaign to unite the democratic party in the November election were taken this morning at meeting of three of the party leaders, Mayor Angelo M. Paonessa, Chairman John F, R. keevers of the democratic town committee. and Attorney Patrick F. McDonough.
 It is planned to have delegation Of IT instructed to vote as a unit for the state ticket which is to be named at the democratic state con- vention to be held in New Haven on September z and s.
 Today is the last day in which those desiring to be delegates may register for the caucus to be held in democratic headquarters Friday evening. The town committee has ruled that names will be received until 9 o'clock this evening.
 Realizing that when the 17 dele gates are chosen there would be members of two factions represent ed. Attorney Patrick F. McDonough and Judge William F. Mangan be- gan the work of uniting party lead CTS so that the organization will be ready for it's best battle on election day.
 It was argued that the democrats on both sides should forget petty rlNalrieS and nut the Jeffersonian party across for a victory
 The conference in the mayors of flee lasted for more than two hours. Only the mayor. Chairman keevers and Attorney McDonough were ores- ent and many of the difficulties which have been hanging fire for several months were "ironed out"
 Fear was being expressed by members of the party that the town committee and the members of the Alfred E. Smith for President club would not be united in the election.

HURLED DOWN BANK,
 R. R. WORKER HURT
Employe Drops From Swiftly Moving Electric
 Hand" Car
(Special to the Heraldp


 Plainville. Aug. 22.-Seized with sudden dizzy spell or caught in a wheel of a small electric hand" car as it was speeding along be- tween Plainville and Farmington about o'clock this morning, Louis Tenan, about 60, of Scott Swamp, hurtled from the car and down a 25-foot embankment, injuring two fingers so badly that they had to be amputated and sustaining other seri- ous injuries. Tenan was picked up by the other four men who were riding on the car and was hurried to the freight depot here, where he vas treated by Dr. George F. Cook He was then removed to the New Britain General hospital.
 The cause of the accident is not known. It was at first thought that Tenan, who had not been well of late and who had recently been dis charged from. a hospital after a three months stay, became dizzy and fell from the car. At the hospi- tai it was said that his overalls caught in one of the car wheels, pulling him from the platform and tossing him down the bank.
 The tips of two fingers on his right hand appeared to have been caught in the wheel; they were crushed and had to be amputated. Tenan also has probable skull fracture. pos sible broken shoulder, back and leg injuries. a severe scalp wound, three deep decorations on the leg, and decorations on the left arm. His con- ditlon is serious but is not thought to be critical.

M'D0N0UGH DECIDES
 TO RUN FOR SENATE
Lawyer Will Seek NOmina. ton of Democratic
 Party

Attorney Thomas F. McDonough today made announcement that he | would be a candidate for the demo- cratic nomination for state senator. He plans an active campaign which he hopes will bring him the nomina- ton of his party and his election over the republican nominee. This is the first formal move At torney McDonough has made in the direction of an elective office. Since he had his name stricken from the republican lists to join the demo- cratic party shortly before the last city election he has been mentioned for several places, but has declined in every instance.
 Friends have approached him with view to having him as the party candidate for the upper house in the state assembly and after several weeks of consideration he has de- cided 10 run.
 Attorney McDonough has made himself one of the partys foremost leaders in the short time he has been in its ranks. Shortly after the election he was offered place on one of the commissions, but refused stating that he was not in the party leng enough and that he felt older members who have been working annually for it's success should be rewarded.
 When James J. Butler resigned from the school board to take over the chairmanship of the board of fire commissioners. Attorney Me- Donough was mentioned for the place and councilmen offered to back him. but he again declined.
 In the democratic national con- vention held at Houston, Texas, he was an honorary sergeant at arms.
 Attorney McDonough is a student of politics and has already gathered much material which he expects to use in a campaign similar to the city election when he. Mayor Paon- essa and Judge William F. Mangan carried on an active speaking tour.
 It is probable that Ernest w. Christ. vice president and secretary of the Stanley Works and a republi- can party leader since 1908, will be his opponent.
