World Court Petition
 Continues To Gain
75O6 Representative Citizens Now Enrolled as Move=
 ment Spreads

The average fcitisen 7 apbears, to have no interest in the ,movement in this country for the entrance of the United States into the World Court. The same condition existed during the World war. Few gave the matter thought and when some body introduced the question those who thought they were wiser than their neighbors made light of it and referred all who differed from, them to the pictures posted all over the country showing niothers .on their knees pleadingi for the reelection of Woodrow Wilson because he kept us out of the war. But regardless of all this we were taken into the World war and the country stands a fair chance of becoming a party to the World court compact.
 Already 7,506 citizens scattered all over the 48 states have signed a petition in favor of our entrance in the court. One might say this is a small number out of a population of 122,775,076. New York heads the list with 1903 signers; Illinois is next with 899; Massachusetts is rep resented with 610; Minnesota, 608; Iowa, 495; Pennsylvania 453; Cali fornian, 371; Ohio, 217, and so on all through the different states, Con- necticut being credited with 181.
 The occupation of as many of the signers as are mentioned includes 161 bankers and business executives; 98 bishops; POS universally and col lege president; SOP clergymen; 285 deans, professors and teaches, and 100 judges and lawyers. If there are any generals or privates who figue in the overseas conflict in the list they are not prominent in the roll

MAYOR ATTACKS PROPOSED WATER RATES
Points To Past Recommendations Of
 Commission As Proof
Chief Executive Claims Previous Proposals of Body Had to Be Changed or Dropped-Works Board Meeting Brief Out of Respect to Dead Supt

Proposed new water rates for Wa terbury, as proposed by the charter commission in it's report, came in for "shot" from Mayor Frank Hayes last night at the meeting of the board of works. Incidentally. the mayors remark was also directed toward the commission, itself, ap- parently. Mayor Hayes declared that the worth of the proposed new rates can be based upon the past performances of the charter com mission and it's recommendations, many of which had to be changed or dropped. -
 The matter came up when let ter was read from the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company asking what had been done with it's petition for a revision in the water rates for large consumers. Executive Secretary Thomas P. Kel- ly. who is acting superintendent of streets. stated that he would inform the board that the charter commis- sion's new rates are under consid- eration at this time. Mayor Hayes interrupted at this, time to res mark on thesworth of the recom- mended rates.
 The charter commission recom- mends service as well as quan- tity charge on all water bills and also advises two sliding scales. One sliding scale would be based on the amount of water consumed by the customer. The other would be based on the height of the land to which the water service must be carried.
 Out of respect to Superintendent Edward F. Bradley. whose death oc- cured yesterday morning, the board made its meetlng brief. Adf1kn Wolff. whose car fatally injured Pa@ trolman Matthew McNalIysin front of Hendrickena school onSEast Main

The addition of 12 more men to the working forces of the relief com mittee to-day brought the total SC employed nearer to the 2,000 mark This figure is far beyond the original expectations of the relief committee but nevertheless,, efforts are being made to give everyone work so that suffering vii be avoided among the needy of Waterbury.
 Chairman Harris to-day decared that, the drive for clothing for the needy of the city is proceeding so fine that his expectations have been exceeded. Clothing is coming in on all sides and it is figured that if the cooperation of thei citizens of the city is kept up the relief committee will soon be well supplied with equipment for al lthose needing aid of this kind. j
 MT. Harris explained to-day that 1t does not matter whether the cast off clothing to be donated to the drive is out of style or not. A staff of women working under the direction of the helief committee is capable of remodeMng such clothing, he said, so that it vii lbe of use to whoever receives the articles of wearing ap- parel. ..t.
 Any clothing to be donated may be left at the nearest firehouse to the donor and it will be promptly relayed to the relief committees re- pair department.

MERCURY BOILER b. PROVES SUCCESS
Hartford Generating Unit
 Works With ExtraOrdin= { tary Fuel Saving Device USED FOR FIRST TIME

Among the more important devel- opments. of the year of 1880 in the field of light. and power service in Connecticut was the introduction in lcontinuous commercial use for the first time of the Hartford Electric Light company's mercury boiler and turbine. a. distinct innovation in elec- trical generation. The mercury ap- paratus was placed in commercial operation after several years of ex- perimental operation had definitely proved 1t capable of extraordinary efficiency as compared with the use of steam generating machinery. l Although the mercury boiler burns than a steam installation of equal capacity, it produces about fifty-two percent more power than the latter. During 1880, the Hartford mercury equipment generated approximately 125.00O.000 kilowatt hours. During this production, it consumed only seven-tenths of pound of coal per kilowatt hour generated. This fuel consumption is forty percent less than that of the company's steam units and is a full pound below the average of one and seventy-seven hundredths pounds for the entire country.
 As its name implies. the mercury installation. instead of water. uses mercury which Is evaporated like the water is q steam boiler. Mercury vapor is then passed through a specially built generating turbine which it operates. It is later con- Licensed with water. but the latent heat Of the mercury is so great that lthe condensing water is immediately turned to steam under such pressure that it is carried to the steam tur- as heat conyeyor and also delivers Eenergy to the mercury turbine. The 1 condensed mercury flows back by gravity. to the boiler and is used fagain. ss
