Pet tion For I. ' Illuminating Company, but the d Receiver Irar Inquiry Made Into the Affairs of the Ridgefeild Illuminating Company. ile- iore Judge 6. W. Wheeler. In Brlgeport. Yesterday An effort was made. yesterday, to Illumine the affairs of the Ridgefield lu- quiry was about as productive as an inquiry into the management of those speculative ventures which have dis- turbed New York for more than a year past. The matter came up before Judge George W. Wheeler at the county court house upon the application of Hiram K. Scott, and many other prominent ltidgefield citizens, for the appointment of a receiver. After hearing what evidence could be pro- duced and the statement of Attorney George H. Bartholomew of Itldgetield representing the petitioners the judge took the name of Judge Harvey P, Bissell, of Ridgeileld, as a prop- er person to be‘nfimed as receiver. and said that when the papers were prepared he would announce his de- clsion. According to the story which could be gleaned up from the few witness- es at hand this little company seems to have run things in an astonishing- ly happy-go-lucky way. Cyrus P. Ern- body, of this city. was down as the secretary and treasurer, but he does not seem to have ever kept a record or received a penny. The company had no bank account, and so far as the secretary knew. no check book, ledger or anything else. L. F. Curtis, the well-known druggist. was part backer of the affair, and If William J, Murphy, of, Ridgefleld, is to . be believed. Mr, Curtis is out between three and four thousand dollars on the ,Venture. Another former well~knowu Bridge- porter whose name not into the ven- ture as holder of the entire capital stock. whether or not he ever paid a penny did not appear, is William H, Brown, now of Baltimore. Mr. Curtis transferred 477 shares of stock to Mr. Brown, but just what for, the secretary could not tell. Mr. Embody admitted that he held some stock. and then he further ac- knowledged that he never paid airy- thlng for it. There seems to have been all sorts of funny things about the company and the location in Ridgefield, first to the joy and then to the sorrow of the town. One Mead—nobody seems to know his first name-dropped into Ridge field one fine day and told the were , thy people that with such great me tropolltan people as Mr. Carey and the Bankers Lounsbury, to say noth- ing of 'many others, in town. they ought to have a gas plant. Mr. Mead,was well qualified to talk gas. Before he left town, he had se- cured contributions to the amount of 31.800. Then wordwas sent that the Ridge— lleld. Illuminating Company was organ- ized and the “Cable Construction Company" would build the plant. All this sounded big and Ridgefield felt happy. « ‘ But the building operation was not altogether pleasing. Work was done that made many a hard headed Ridge- fielder look aakance at the job. An- cient pipes were laid in the streets. Some of it was so poor, so Attorney Bartholomew said. that it was after- wardsused for rail fences. But after- awhile the gas was gen erated-and Ridgefield felt big as life when the streets were lighted up. But'the joy was short lived. After awhile the ancient pipes ebgan to leak and that beautiful country air for which Ridgefield was famous. was soon as contaminated as a side street in darkest New York. There were all sorts of complaints. Things went from bad to worse. Fi- nally 'Mr. Murphy took hold of the plant and tried to run it, but he be- came disgusted and retired from the field. There was much inquiry for Mend, but the last heard of him he was in Canada. Nothing has been heard from the company and suits of indebtedness ' have been coming in. A judgment and an order of sale was obtained for a .00 claim. The property is to be ‘Ibld on July 15. The plant has been closed for a week and Ridgefieid is ' again at the mercy of the Standard » Oil Company. All this led to the application for 1h about of a receiver. The hope to save a few dot * the lights and interests on what he did not the. than old iron. I Runaway Automobile- Entered at the South Norwalk Post-Office as Second Class Matter. Crashed Into Stone Wall Exciting Experience of Broker W. K. Maples and His Chauffeur In Soa- vlow Avenue, Last Night. A rather exciting time took place last evening early on Roavlew nvr-rrur. The large automobile recently pur- chased from the Pope Manufacturing Company by William K. Maples. anti operated by a chauffeur from the fulf- tory, who is engaged in teaching Mr. Maples how to run the machine. was proceeding along at a moderate rate of speed. It struck a hammock in the road and a suspicious jingiing sound followed. The auto commenc- ed to do the Dutch roll, and crrt fig- ure 8's in the roadway. Artnur' Curr was riding his wheel along the street and the auto. which hurl become un~ manageable, proceeded to chase him around the street. He was finally com- pelled to ride down the bank and al- most into the river. He managed to escape both, however, by being dex- terous. The auto then started in an- other direction and finally went with a crash against the stone wall inside the. sidewalk. it was towed away and it is estimated that it will cost two or three hundred dollars to repair the machine. Neither Mr. Maples or the Chauffeur was injured in the accident. LOCKWOOD MAKES A GAIN. But Is Unable to Overcome Keisier's Load In Pool Tournament.

LOUIS, July 9.—Chief Judge Al- ton B. Parker, of the New York State Court of Appeals. was nominated about fifteen minutes to six o'clock this morn ing for President of the United States by the Democratic National Convert tion. But one roll call ensued and so decisive was the result of that one that contrary states began to call for rec- rgnliiou and the ballot finally resulted In a unanimous vote for the New York date. The scene was dramatic in the extreme. Darkness had witness rd the gathering of the llelrrocrutic hosts. while broad daylight—tire sun paling the electric light, witnessed the tlose. The convention was In session from .l o'clock last night until nearly ti o‘clock this morning. In that time right names were presented to the -~.onventlon. Nominating and second ng speeches innumerable were made ind as dawn approached it became no. cessary to limit the ascending speech- es to four minutes each.

There has been some slight misun- derstanding in regard to the situation .rrlsing over the differences between the hat finishers and the manufactur- ers and in the Sentinel's story yester- lay the inference was drawn that care urnerence existed between the lnlshers and curlers and the makers, rod that the demands of the makers would prove in a measure derogatory ‘o the interests of the curlers and fin- shers. This is denied by the makers. When the demand of the hat makers was made, It was sanctioned by the National organisation and the bills of the finishers and curlers had been sanctioned by the executive board and agreed to by the finishers and the curl- ers as well as by the manufacturers and was signed by both parties. The makers state that it would be far from their thoughts to increase their wages at the cost of any of their fellow workers. They have been for several days ascertaining the different bills of prices in nearby districts and find that the wages compare very simi- liarly with those in vogue and pro- posed here by the workers.
