FRENCH TROOPS
 MASS ON BORDER

(Continued from Page D jected to being disarmed. Many ot them struggled with French guards for possession of their guns.
 Handling Refugees
 Meanwhile, the ministers of health and the interior arrived from Paris to supervise the handling of refu- gees and the frontier was closed temporarily at Perthus, the main point of entry through the Pyrenees mountains, after l8,000 refegees had crossed.
 The total number of refugees al- ready admitted was estimated at 30,0O0, and arrangements were made to admit 25,000 more in the next two days.
 Meanwhile it was reported that the Loyalist government was pre- paring to evacuate Catalonia and continue the civil war from a new headquarters in central Spain. Loyalist troops had reformed along a line 40 miles north of Bar celona. Their rear guards were fighting fiercely to impede the Ma. tionalists, now along a line un. dulating westward from the coast sometimes 20, at one point as far as 27 miles north of Barcelona. Wal communiques from Nationalists as well as Loyalists showed that the insurgent drive had ben slowed re- markedly within the last 48 hours. Can't Be Stopped But, there was no reason to be- lieve that the overwhelming pres- sure of the Nationalist army, cofn- prising Italian and German air. planes and Italian, Moorish and Spanish infantry, could be stopped for long.
 United Press correspondents re. ported that roads leading north from the Barcelona area to the French frontier still were crowded with refugees, that traffic was i'm. peded and that military transport was difficult.

DEATHS REDUCED
 95,OOO IN l93S

Chicago, Jan. Si-(UP)-Acciden- tai deaths were reduced to 95 5,000 during 1898, a reduction of 10,200 from 1887, the greatest decrease ever recorded in @ sigle year, the Na- tional Safety Council announced today. The provisional total was the lowest since 1883. Accident pre- vention programs were successful everywhere except in the home. For the first time in e decade home accidental deaths exceeded traffic deaths.
 The council said home accidents increased two per cent from 32,000 in 1887 to 32,500 last year while traffic fatalities dropped 19 per cent from 39,643 in 1887 to 32,000 during 1888.
 Forty-five states cut their deaths below 1897 figures. Rhode Island led with e decrease of 36 per cent. Pennsylvania was second with e 35 per cent reduction in traffic fatal- ities. Conn. had 21 percent decrease, 91 lives saved.

a large number of such jobs in the city government.
 He pointed out that the bill recommends the names of the three commissioners who would be named by the governor to handle all the city's affairs during the remainder of 1889. They would also be resi- dents of Waterbury.
 Had Other Desires
 A desire not to interfere with the orderly procedure of the Waterbury conspiracy trial was also expressed by the Representative and conse- quently was withholding actual submission of the measure itself un- til later. In explanation of several features he said that the commits sion's powers would be broad and their responsibility be only to the Legislature. The Board of Aldermen and other civic commissions would not function throughout the erner- gency period. Consolidation or elimi- nation of any city departments could be ordered by the connmis- sion as they saw fit. Wide powers of dismissal or suspension are also iri- cluded.
