. NATIONAL W. C. T. U.

Close of the Twenty-sixth Annual Cos-
ventioa and Silver Jubilee.

Seattle. Washington. October 26—
The National W. C. T. 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.
