SUICIDE TREE MUST GO.


Mulberry Bends Famed Landmark to be
Cut Down-Men Hanged Themselves On
1t Years Ago.
New York, May 1.-THE World says;
The old mulberry tree, which has stood
near Mulberry bend, opposite Park
street, for more years than any oldest
inhabitant' can possibly remember, is
doomed.
Contractor John Slattery, who has
the contract for making the new park
there, has decided that the old tree
must go, and he will have it taken down
and carted away in sections either to-
day or very soon.
The tree is said by experts to be fully
$50 years old. 1t was in the back yard
of Mulberry bend house until the
houses We're RACED, and now it stands
alone on the edge of the ground where
the park is to be.
Old residents of the neighborhood
tell how several people hanged them
selves at different times on it's branches
many years ago. 1t was called sui
eide tree" for a long time.
The tree is quite dead now. The
wood is so decayed that it is spongy
and without strength or substance.
Still the people of the neighborhood
don't like to see the old tree go, for
they have known it all their lives.

UNITED STATES RUBBER TRUST.

Changes ON the Staff-Rumor of Founda-
tion ola New Company Denied-The New
Haven Concern win Put 1000 Hands mt
Work Next Week.
Providence, r. l., May THE United
Rubber company is making reductions
in it's staff of officials, and also reduc-
ing salaries. The general counsel and
also several of the under officials have
been retired. The salary of the selling
agent will be cut down from $4,000 to
$4,000 a year, and other changes are
expected to take place shortly.
There is nothing definite in regard to
the rumor that Mr.. Banigan had con-
templated erecting a factory to fight the
trust. Local directors said yesterday
that Mr.. Banigan was still a director,
and that they did not think that he
would do anything prejudicial to the
company, under the circumstances.
NEW HAVEN FACTORY TO OPEN.
The improvements at the L. Candee
& Co. factory are so far completed that
about 1000 hands will be placed at work
Next week.
The engines will start Monday, May
II, and the shoemakers will fit up Tues
day, May IL.
The new improvements made during
the vacation are very extensive. A
great roof covering an immense new
packing room has been raised. This
part of the work was delayed owing
to the delay in receiving the girders
for the same.
1t looks now as though the factory
would be very busy during the sum
mer. A big loss to the city's business
is caused by long shut down of the
rubber shop and the opening is glad
news for those employed there. When
running full time about 1,600 hands are
employed.
