U.. closed its twenty-sixth annual couventlou‘ sud silver jubilee in this city yesterday. and today will witness the departure of a number of delegates for the east. The excitement over the denuciatory resolutions passed Tuesday on the nag tionai administration policy in the Philippines and interpretation of the anti-canteen law had not died out when yesterday's meeting convened. but throughout the session yesterday noth- ing was said about the resolutions. Mrs Hannah .1. Bailey, of Maine. superin— tendentof the peace and international arbitration parliament. under whose auspices the Philippine war resolution was introduced, read her report. The only reference to the critclam was when she said "We do not criticize the soldiers who from a sense of ap- prehended duty and so-called patriot- lsm enlist." The' executive committee, to whom has been referred the matter of select- ing next year's meeting place. met last night. but made no selection. They will meet again today and there is ev- ery indication that Indianapolis will be named. TRACTION WIPANY SUE”. Administrator of Bradley Estates ill-lar Two Actions for 010.000. The Bridgeport Traction Company was served yesterday by Deputy Sher— iff iloollns with papers In suits for $5,000 damages each, brought by Otis B. Bradley. of New Haven. adminis- trator of the estates of Elias E. Brad- ley. of Milford. and his wife. Ellen u. Bradley. both of whom were killed in the Shelton trolley accident at Pecs‘e Mill bridge Sunday. August 6 last. 'l‘hr property of the defendant corporation was attached for 87.000 in each case. Mr. Bradley. who was a sslcctman. and his wife boarded the car In Bridgeport. They were both killed outright and the only surviving heir is one daughter. These are the first cases actually brought an a result or the Shelton disaster. the company having reached a compromise with nearly all the others. The adminis- trator for the estate of the 'Iiradlcys presented claims for damages. but no settlement was reached. Attorney W. B. Stoddard. of Milford, is counsel for the administrator. A, peculiar feature of the cases is that the Shelton Street Railway Com- pany is not recognized in the writs in any way. but the action In brought directly against the Bridgeport 'irsc- tion Company. whose car was being used and whose employees operated it. The second pargraph of the com- plaint contains the allegation that August 6. 1899. the defendant was op- erating and running by electric power certain cars for the transportation of passengers in the towns of Bridgeport and Stratford. The complaint goes on to say that the plaintiff entered up- on p. car upon which were the words “Milford Street Railway (.30., No. ". that he paid his fare and was arcc on as a passenger. The car was derail- ed at Peck's Mill bridge. plunged from the trestle carrying with it. Mr. Brad- ley. and he rccclvrd injuries from which death ensued. ADVANCE IN DINING TABLEH. Chicago.
