Stevens Still
 Unconscious
Condition Critical, But Not
 Entirely Hopeless

John Stevens. 40, who was struck and seriously injured by a trolley car late last Monday eve- ming, was still unconscious to-day at St Mary's hospital. His condi- ton is regarded as critical, but not hopeless. His identity has been confirmed by the arrival of his wife. Stevens lived at the State hotel.
 Late Monday evening the injured man was crossing near the corner East Main and Cole street when hit by q car in charge of Motor man Thomas Foody. The latter in his statements to Deputy Coroner Walter Smyth stated that Stevens stumbled and fell into the path of the car. The motorman is not be- ing held by the authorities.
 For two days stevens' real iden- tity remained a matter of doubt. but the appearance of his wife, has cleared up the mystery concerning his place of residence and nearest of kin.

New York, July 2s-(UP)-- Buoyed up by a constantly grow ing public demand, the stock mar- ket resumed it's upward march to- day. By mid-afternoon the mar ket had reached its best levels in nearly three months.
 Undismayed by refeated fiurries of profit-taking, which swelled the turnover, bulls confidently bid up stock after stock, carrying them anywhere from 1 to points above the previous close. It was one of the most enthusiastic bull demon- strations of the year. e
 Trading went ahead at a terrific pace as leading stocks repeatedly broke through to new highs. Real izing sales were absorbed with lit- tie difficulty and the market ap- peared to be riding the crest of a public opinion that the bottom" may have been touched.
 This scramble to get aboard re- suited in striking advances in a wide line of stocks, including American Telephone, American Can, Allied Chemical, Standard OH of New Jersey and Union Pacific. Bears put out fresh short lines on

$4,OOO Fines for
 Illegal Lights
Motor Vehicle Dept Seeks
 to Eliminate Hazard

Twenty-Five years ago on a single summer day 21 persons paid $5 each for operating rubber-tired vehicles after dark without lan- terms" In the year 1926, All mo- torists paid $10,092.14 for the same type of law violation. Dur- ing 1881 the state received $4,- 313.53 because 294 persons were fined for various violations of the motor vehicle lighting laws.
 Conditions of traffic have changed radically in this quarter century, says bulletin. of the de- pertinent of motor vehicles to-day. Where in 1907 there were but 7,S95 motor vehicles registered in Connecticut, in 1891 there were 363,386 cars. Highways are bet ter, automobiles are vastly su- perior. safety equipment is of a high standard to-day in compari- son with that of 1907 and yet the necessity for lights and the states insistence upon their use has not changed unless to be emphasized by modern requirements. Lights now are more important than ever because of the increased highway traffic and it's greater speed of movement.
 No little educational effort has been exerted in the passing years to inspire motor vehicle owners and operators to Illuminate their cars in night use for the protec- ton of themselves and others. Not withstanding this fact, 621 persons were haled into court last year for failures of one sort or another in the matter of car lighting. These participants were arrested for hav- ing cars equipped with illegal lighting devices. driving without parking without lights or operat- ing with but one headlight.
 Illegal lighting equipment on their cars resulted in the arrests of 222 motorists. There were 1S0 others arrested for parking with out lights. 115 for failure to dis play rear light, 76 for driving without lights and 2S for driving with but one headlight in service.
 Records show there were 30 ac- cidents, including two fatalities. during 1881 in which improper or insufficient fights was the main or contributing cause.
