POOL SELLERS FIGHT.
wIl Carry Their Case to the Highe'
 Court to Test the Law.

WIn Carry Their Case to the Highest
 Court to Test the Law.
 Stamford will be the starting point in a celebrated case which, if necessary, will be carried to the supreme court of the United States, with unlimited money backing, by the race track men. The Electric News and Money Transfer company has had branch office there. and similar offices have been established in other cities of Con- necticut. A state supreme court decision several months ago peclared that the busi- ness was violation of the anti-pool sell ing law passed in the Connecticut legisla. ture, and immediately after the decision was rendered, the office were closed.
 On Saturday the Stamford office was re- opened, and two Stamford policemen, with full knowledge that they w're officers Of the law, were admitted. Money was taken from them and sent by telegraph to New York to bet on horses in & race. Every facility to give the officers full acquain- tance with the method of business and its purpose was afforded.
 The managers of the company will now be arrested on warrant and will be tried under the state law in the local court. A conviction is conceded The company will then appeal, alleging that the Connection anti-pool law is unconstitutional.

LABORERS DISCHARGED.
Contractor LanGefcldt Has Littl
 Tromblr To-DaY.

Contractor LangefeIdt Has a Little
 Trouble TO-Day.
 It was reported about town to-day that there was a strike among the men in the employ of Contractor Langefeldt, who is putting down the paving blocks on South Nam street. A reporter of the DEMOCRAT called at the place this afternoon and talked with Mir Langefeldt and his men. At the time of tbe interview the contractor was paying eff and discharging all hls help, except the payers. The misunderstanding arose because Mir Langefeldt dId not ap- pear at the work this morning, but left orders with one of his men to see that the men were attended to until he stould get around. The laboreIs refused to work and demanded their wages. This afternoon Mir feldt called with big bag ot money and paid the dissatisfied men up to the last cent The paving is all done on the east side of the street and he says that there IS nothing to do for some of them at present anyway. The rest of the pb will go ahead as though Io:hine had happened The workmen said they had no fault to find with their employer.

ACCOUNTS

BOOkkeepsr For the City Lumber & Coal Co Charged With EmbeEEIement to the Amount Of SI,OOO.
 Edmund J. Corden, bookkeeper for the City Lumber < Coal Go, was arrested this noon by Officer John BIickel. charged with embezzlemsnt. The amount named in the complaint is SI ,0O0. Members of the firm, when interviewed this afternoon, said that the:accused was a popular employeIand that only the desire to save the firms good name prompted them Tn causing his ar rest. >,.7
 Last fall N. W. Greenman, member of the firm, was accustomed to turn over to Bookkeeper Corden the money he col lected. He received in return receipt. This receipt, it is alleged. was changed by the bookkeeper. Mir Greenman would write on a small book the names and amounts of those who paid, and on this same book Corden would sign his name. Some times F. G. Humphrey, the general manager, would receive the money and sign or it, and everything apparently was all ight.
 Last March Bookkeeper Corden was taken sick and the man that took his place found that many bills were due, which should be closed. He was ordered to send bills out to everybody. As consequence l within lew weeks peOpIe Nuo ASSclNoN bills went to the office and claimed ulat they had settled thelr accounts. An ln- vestlgation was begun and it was found that Mir Greenman's accounts had been ''doctored" Paid sums were erased sometimes amounting to S10O. As soon as the kookkeeper was well and able to return to work. he was informed Of the discovery. He acknow ledged his guilt. The firm was kindly dis posed toward him and consented to retair him n his position if he would pay $6 [ week to make up his shortage. This h' failed to do.
 Two weeks ago it was found tha he had collected from another firm and had failed to credit the amount It was decided then to call in the law anC the arrest was made to-day. The mem bers of the firm are very sorry at the dis closures, but many of their customers ar complaining that they are trying to collec twice and they had to resort to sever measures to save themselves. Such is tn story they tell.
 Corden is a very popular young man ar' has hosts of friends who hope he may b able to explain away the accusations. IT to press hour he had not obtained bonds | man
