SECOND ATTEMPT TO
 KIDNAP CHILD HEIR
Darien Guard Shoots at Assailant After Mo-
 Carthy Boy

Darien. July 19 (P)-A second at tempt at q possible Kidnapping was frustrated here early this morning when Harry Sparks, watchman employed to guard the ? F year old son of Dr. James S. Mccarthy in- formed police that he had been bounced upon by an unknown as- sailant while sitting on the veranda.
 Sparks told authorities that he easily shook off his attacker and fired a shot at him as he escaped in the darkness. A similar attack was committed March 20 last. when ill gun battle Sparks drove off two alleged gunmen that evidently had planned to kidna,, the young son Of Mccarthy, who is heir to trust fund of S2,000,00O.
 Police Investigating last night found a section of lead pipe wrapped II. piece of rubber tubing near the. vcranda. Several newspapers were also found.
 The will of the late Mrs. James Mccarthy was the subject of a legal battle last winter when the daughter of the woman, Peggy Cowan of Paris, by previous marriage, was awarded S2,000,o00 by the probate court. after having been cut off by the will with small sum.
 Dr. Mccarthy, the husband. was allowed s6,000,000 and a trust fund established for the infant son.

AGREE ON S24,O0O BLACK ROCK SPAN
Mayor and Railroad Officials De-
 eide Upon New Bridge
QUESTION OF PROCEDURE
Corporation Counsel to be Consulted Council Meeting May be Called for Action-Present Bridge Found to be Unsafe.

A S24,00O structure to replace the present Black Rock bridge, afford d wider roadbed and sidewalks, and increase the guaranteed capacity from eight to 20 tons, seemed to- day to be a certainty following a conference between Mayor Paonessa and representatives Of the New Haven road.
 The question of procedure. only, remained to be determined. and this problem was referred to orporation Counsel John H. kirkham. If it is found that mutual agreement be- tween the municipality and the rail- road is sufficient to authorize opera tions, the common council will be called in special session next week to sanction the works. If it is found that the state highway department is con- cerned in the matter, a petition will be forwarded to the public utilities commission.
 J. J. Casey division superintend- ent, and a representative of the en-
 
 discussed the bridge matter with the mayor at today's conference. It was decided to employ a plan suggested by the railroad in 1927, this increas- ing the width of the structure to meet the highway width on both . sides and increasing the strength.
 Present Bridge Unsafe
 On the latter question, it was brought out that safety is assured not more than eight tons. but that sand and stone trucks crossing daily weigh nearly 50 per cent more than that poundage, and. when two meet, a situation inviting grave danger is the result.
 Mayor Paonessa inquired as to the feasibility of continuing the present structure but widening it. The rail- road men did not look with favor on such a plan, since it does not in- crease the strength or remove the traffic danger.
 The question Of finances will be determined by the public utilities commission, which will apportion the costs between the city and the rail- road Mayor Paonessa expressed a belief that the city would experience no difficulty in finding the necessary funds.
