TWO MISHAPS
ON CITY STREETS
Collisions at Baldwin and
Liberty Streets and
on Town Plot
NOBODY INJURED

A collision this morning at the
corner Of Baldwin and Liberty
street resulted In a sedan operated
by Miss Ellen Doran Of AT East
Main street being badly damaged.
One OF the front wheels OF the car
was broken and the body dented.
The machine figured in q collision
with a truck owned by the Adiey
Express company of New Haven
and driven by Nicholas Aiberin Of
Franklin street, New Haven.
Miss Doran was driving under
the Instructions of Jos. phi Cunning
ham of ~ silver street at the time
or the accident. No one was In
jured. ~
A report Of the mishap was re-
corded at police headquarters by
Patrolman Albert Lacey.
Walter Rasmussen Of Bradley
avenue reported that while driving
near the Town Plot school to-day
youngster named Henry Icayiello OF
95 Hawthorne street stepped of
the sidewalk and struck against the
side of his machine. The boy fell to
the ground but picked himself UP
and ran away. When finally locat-
ed by Mr. Rasmussen who was anx-
ious to learn whether or not he had
been injured the youngster was rid
ing a bicycle and had apparently
forgotten all about the incident
which caused Mr. Rasmussen some
anxiety and resulted in two or
three reports being made to the po-
lice about the accident. 4

In a school district contest
which established a new record for
the number Of votes cast a ticket
led by Thomas j. Caldwell, q
former Waterburlan, registered q
decisive. victory in Hartford. II
was the second defeat administered
to an old administration faction
within two weeks time and practi-
caiiy paves the way for the dis
Jnissal Of the vanquished leader,
Michael ID. Fox, present superin-
tendent Of the Washington school
district Of that city. The contest
was on the adoption Of a resolution
which would have empowered the
school committee defeated two
weeks ago to appoint teachers and
other school employees of the dis
trict. Friends OF Mr. Fox attempt
ed to secure the power of appoint
ments, but lost In battle of ball
lots. The total vote cast was 6,21S
Of which the successful Caldwell
ticket received 1902 and the Fox
faction 2,027.

the results, which were antici-
pated with city-wide interest In

page importance yesterday there
were ~ number of informal cele-
brafi6ns. Many Waterburians were
on hand during the closing hour

an admirer of Governor Richie.
Cleveland was born In the White
House, the last child born In the

Already there are circulating
around Chicago copies OF n speech
he has made on bi-metallism. He
has lived much In California OF

Regardless of climatic conditions
prevailing along the transcontinent-
al rail lines after June /, dining
car patrons on Southern Pacific's
Overland and Golden State Limited
trains will enjoy the comfort of the
finest man-made weather.

been completed for installation of
the most modern air cooling and
conditioning equipment in dining

ating between the Pacific coast and

The air conditioning system,
Major said, will control the temper
ature and humidity in the cars
during both summer and winter.
In the summer the air will be
cooled by passing over ice, it was
explained, and in winter it will be
warmed to comfortable tempera-
ture regardless of outside weather
conditions.
The Improvement in the diner
equipment will greatly increase the
comfort of passengers, Major de-
