NO REDUCTION IN WAGES.


Rumors Of Cuts Made by Several Lo-
cal Companies-Denied by the Vari-
Gus Firms
1t was reported yesterday that cuts
in wages had been made by the New
Haven Clock company, Mallory, Wheel
err Co., the Candee Rubber Co., and
Henry Hooker & Co., but investigation
of the cases showed that the rumors
We're unfounded. 1t was stated on the
streets yesterday that the Clock Co,
had reduced wages about 10 per cent,
but superintendent Coe stated shat no
reduction had been made by the COM
pany, nor by any of the contractors, to
his knowledge. President Andrews of
the Mallory, Wheeler Co. said that
there had been a little revision of the
prices paid to the buffers and polishers,
the prices for some work having been
lowered and for other work raised,
making the average the same as be-
fore, There is, also, probably no truth
in the report that the Candee Rubber
Co. had made a per cent. reduction
Secretary n. A. Hooker of the Henry
Hooker e Co., states that there has
been no cut of any kind in their fac
tory. He said that business was dull
and it was found necessary to lay off
some of the men. Some Of them pro-
posed to work for less wages than not
at ALL so they were allowed to keep to
work.

ANIMAL D0NIrIoN Day.
The Home for the Friendless Its Work
and Great Usefulness-New Building
Hoped For Soon.

The Home for the Friendiess Its Work
and Great Usefulness-New Building
Hoped For Soon.
Although the Home for the Friend
less has been in existence only a little
more than a quarter of a century, it's
well doing has extended over an i'm
mense field of misery and wretched-
ness, with small thought for creed or
color, so long as the need was there.
Yet there is, perhaps, no work of mercy
among the many In New Haven about
which so little is known.
The institution, unlike many eharita-
BILE homes, is exactly what its name
implies-a home for friendless women.
When the appeal for aid goes forth
quietly once every year the response is
liberal enough to keep the home from
debt.
The care of homeless hayward girls
was the first object of this corporation.
Although it's charity has since branch
ed out widely, this first object still con-
tinues one of the foremost. The insti-
tuition differs from some others mas
much as it will not open its doors twice
to the same unfortunate woman.
Girls who have met with misfortune
are welcomed with open arms, cared
for and sheltered, and many are made
g., q Rr;
influence of kind women. Those who
need medical attendance are sent to
the hospital, where they are kept by
special provision of the home.
The single condition on which they
are received is that they return to the
home after their recovery, and here
they must remain for six months 1t
is during these six months that the
society hopes to so mould the charac-
ters of the girls that they may become
useful members of society.
Nearly every young woman who is
received lays the foundation of a char
acter while she is ini the home, which
enables her to live an upright self-re-
specting Christian life, and very few
fall back in later years. The special
work of the home is to give help to
such cases as these girls who are not
hardened
The institution has begun to outgrow
the old wooden house at Clinton ave-
nue. and Pine street, in Fair Haven.
A new wing of brick, containing twenty
bedrooms, has been added recently, and
these apartments are given over to
the aged women of the home-women
who are more than seventy years old.
The managers of the home look for
ward to the speedy realization of their
plans for a new building which will
adequately shelter the inmates. Special
subscriptions to this object have been
received to the amount of over $4,000.
Tomorrow is donation day. The
home will be open to visitors and a cor
dial invitation is extended to all its
| friends to visit it at that time
To accommodate those desiring TO
give, who may be unable to visit the
| home, or to send their donations there,
| the store at 694 Chapel street, at pres
| ent vacant, has been generously placed
| at the disposal of the home for to-mor-
| row. All contributions of goods or
| money may be sent there, where some
| one will be present from 9 a. m. until
p. m, to receive them Checks should
be made payable to L. F. Cowles treas
urer.

VISITING IN THIS CITY,

Mrs. Ruth Ward Kahn of Colorado,

POOR PAID IN GOLD.

Meriden Nov. 10.-The selectmen paid
the outside poor in gold this morning,

a penny, but on further examination
she discovered it to be the precious
metal, and exclaimed that it was the
first piece of gold she had seen in
