On Monday evening between nine and
10 o'clock, Francis w. Labor, farmer
residing on Johns's hill, six miles north
east of Bristol village, discovered
Charles and Stephen Halock emerge from
his pig-house with shovel and rake. AS
the Hallocks passed the window where Mr.
Labor was they were requested to halt,
but didtnot Labor stepped outside with a
double barreled shot gun and again ordered
them to halt. The Hallocks dropped the
shovel and rake but did not stop. Labor
raised his gun and fired. Charles Hallock
was wounded in the neck and face, and
Stephen Halock received a number of shot
in his arm and side. Rumor has it that
Charles Hallock is liable to die from the
effects of the wound The Hallocks have
enjoyed a hard reputation for years, and
Charles was liberated from the Vermont
State prison last October for stealing a
harness. Last week Mr.. Labors sugar
house was burned, together with an evapor-
ator 800 tin sap buckets and other sugar
| utensils, causing loss of some
| $3.50 1t was undoubtedly set on
fire and suspicion points to the Hal
locks. Mr. Labor has been compelled
to lock up everything on his premises. His
| fences have been torn down and in places,
they have been set on fire. The Hailocks
have been terror to the community in
which they live for years. 1t is hard work
to get any one in that part of the town to
testify against them, Several have stated
that they were afraid if they testified
against the Hallocks that their buildings
would be burned. States Attorney Wilde:
was summoned from Aliddlebury, arriving
| here at IL a. IN. He will investigate

THE SHOOTING AT BRISTOL.
L. w. Labor, the Shooter, Bound over to
Await Action of the Grand Jury.

The shooting affair in Bristol village
reported in Wednesdays FREE Press
will not turn out to be as serious
as at first supposed Tuesday after
noon States attorney Wildes, Grand Juror
Compton, Deputy Sheriff Lawrence and
Sheriff Clark visited the scenes of Monday
nights shooting on Johns hill. The ofli
GERS were unable to find any of the missing
property on the premises Of the Hallocks.
Wednesday morning j. w. Labor, the
shooter, came to this village and had a
hearing He was bound over to await the
action of the grand jury. The Hallocks
were not seriously wounded. There ap
pears to be a feeling in favor of them in
the neighporhood, but it is evidently Of a
fictitious nature caused through fear, In
this village where both parties are known
the sentiment is nearly unanimous in favor
of Mr. Labor, and all hope that he will be
acquitted at the County Court.

The United States Court at Windsor re
sumed the consideration of the case of
William Suzer VS. Mary Maud Watson
Saturday morning, at $50 o'clock. This ID
the case the trial of which was begun at
the opening of the term, and it grows out
of the suit brought by the plaintiff to re
cover the sum of $40, 900 for his services as
attorney for the defendant in the famous An
derson will contest, the testator having been
Mrs. Watson sgrandfather. Judge Lacombe
charged the jury who retired at $50 and
remained out until 1915 when they brought
in verdict for the defendant. Both sides
took numerous exceptions and there is a
possibility that the case will be carried to
the Supreme Court.

CONGRESSMAN BoUTELLE was not spec
tally happy yesterday in his remarks on
the Richmond demonstration. The
southern sentiment about the war is a
purely sentimental one, and has been
relieved from anything that should
shock fair-minded man. On every oc-
casion in which it has been proper to
give expression to genuine national
feeling the south has done it in a spon-
taneous and patriotic manner. The late
Henry w. Grady was conspicuous in
stance of this, and his utterances were
specially happy. The southern people
naturally cherish their dead heroes, and
they would be very poor lot if they did
not, Mr.. Boutelle to the contrary not
withstanding. Their sentiment is re-
markably like that which finds express
ion in the Waverley novels, and which
invested the Stuarts with halo without
disturbing the political effects of the
battle of Culloden.

IT LOOKS very much as if the people of
San Francisco will shortly have a COM
peting railway. A telegram in other
columns says that a party of surveyors
of the Atlantic and Pacific railway passed
through The Needles yesterday, and that
their instructions were to survey road
of about four hundred miles. This is
about the distance from Mojave to San
Francisco, and the surveying party is
supposed to be detailed to make prelim-
mary surveys for that work. 1t will be
remembered that some years ago the
Southern Pacific railway was somewhat
hard pressed for cash, and they then
sold their road from the Mojave to The
Needles to the Atlantic and Pacific,
which is another word for the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe railway, the lessee
of the Atlantic and Pacific. The road is
certain to be built shortly.

THE STRIKE WAVE.
THE MONTH OF MAY MEMORABLE
IN LABOR ANNALS.
An Unprecedented Number of Strikes
Occurring-Thus Far the Strikers in
the Main Have Been Successful.

New YORK, May 80. -Bradstreet'. says ::
The month now drawing to close will
go on record as one in which an unpre-
cedented number of strikes took place
Up to Thursday of this week there were
243 strikes, involving 81, SOY persons, re-
ported since May 1st. For the five
months of the present year, the contrast
furnished with similar periods OF late
years is striking one, and we have to
go back to the great 1867 strike wave
for like exhibit. A fact worthy of
mention is that the strikes of carpenters
and other workers in wood ac-
count for less than one-half the
total number of strikers in May,
1890, and while large number
of building hands went out there were
nevertheless a very considerable num-
ber of strikes and strikers in other lines,
pointing to the existence of general un-
easiness seeking expression in strikes or
lockouts. All things considered it is
doubtful whether this will not make
itself manifest again before the end of
the year.
In an interview with Bradstreets
representatives this week, Mr.. Gompers
estimated the total number of carpen-
ters on strike, at present, for an eight
hour day, at only 5000. In the list of
disturbed points he mentions Portland
(Oregon), Boston and Philadelphia.
That only 5000 remained idle, while
$4,000 men of the federation gained
their point, is apparently considered the
best possible proof of what is claimed to
be practically a success. The federation
will not take any further steps till the
carpenters strike is thing of the past.
