whether James Hunt, who has been
nominated as the republican represent
alive from the ward, and who at pres
ent occupies a seat in the common
council, would resign his seat III the
council in case he was successful at
the polls next month. While there is
nothing to prevent his holding both Of
fees. it seems to be the opinion of
prominent politicians that another man
should be given the seat. In case he
resigns his council seat, there will be
another vacancy in the ward represent
alton, and an unexpired term of one
year to fill. Were such a case to ex-
list, both of the gentlemen mentioned
would be likely to receive nominations.

Executive Committee Expected to Report
Today on the Wilton Trouble.
As yet no definite action has been ia
ken regarding the matter of the dis
charged stage hands who formerly
worked at Lothrop's Opera House. The
matter has been placed before the ex-
ecutive board, Boston Union. of the
National Alliance of Stage Employees,
and they will render decision on the
matter before long. Mr. Pickering, be-
fore leaving for Boston, stated that his
investigation would probably result in
immediate settlement.
Jefferson d. Pierce, vice president of
the National Federation of Labor and
an interested observer of labor move
ments here, went to Boston on the
same train that Mr. Pickering did
Whether President Plerce's visit had
anything to do with the trouble, is not
yet known as he is now out of town.
David Doran, the discharged stage
manager, was in good spirits last night
because he said that by today, sure, the
story would be told in favor of the
stage hands.

VISITING MECHANICS
They Are Taken Through the Power and
Engineering Plants at the Tech.

They Are Taken Through the Power and
Engineering Plants at the Tech.
About IS members of the National
Association Of Steam Engineers and of
the American Association of Steam En-
gineers, paid visit to the power plant
and engineering laboratories of the
Worcester Polytechnic Institute on
Thursday evening They came at the
invitation Of Prof Sidney A. Reeve of
the mechanical department, extended
through Noah Ashworth, the engineer
in charge of the power house, to in
spect the plant and the facilities which
the institute possesses for instructing
students in steam engineering.
The shops and power plant were run
during the evening for the benefit of
the visitors, who were conducted
through the departments by Prof.
Reeve. They expressed themselves as
being highly pleased with what they
saw, some of the members Of the as
sociation saying that the Washburn
shops were among the finest equipped
machine works Of their class they had
ever seen.
The institute possesses in its mechan-
zeal engineering laboratories some of
machinery that exists in New England,
and these machines were operated for
the inspection of the visiting mechan-
les, many of whom had never wit
messed anything of the kind previously.
Several specimens were tested and
broken and the extreme delicacy as
we'll as the immense power Of the ma
chimes, was illustrated.
Methods were shown of testing steam
engines for capacity, by the improved
absorption thermometers which the in
stitute has in its laboratories and the
theory Of the instruments was explain
ed by Prof. Reeve. The electric light
| ing and power plant Of the institute
was inspected, and proved of much in
terest to the visitors. The inspection
Of the three engines which furnish
power for the whole institute was of es-
pecial interest to the engineers, as the
three units of the system are arranged
in manner that is not met with else
where. The three engines are 80 ar
ranged that they may be run in a va
riety of ways, as single units, double
and triple compounds and so forth,
thus furnishing most excellent facilities
for experimentation by the students.

LOSES ALEC.
Thomas Finn Run Over by a Brookfleld
Electric Car.

A man who gave his name to the
police as Thomas Finn, 40 years old, of
North Brookfeld, was brought to this
city last night and taken to the city
hospital The man was lying on the
tracks of the Warren, Brookheld and
Spencer electric road, opposite the
power house at Brookfeld, when the car
leaving Spencer at $50 came along.
The heavy rain and darkness pre-
vented the motorman seeing the man
until the car was almost on him. Firms
right leg was fearfully crushed just be-
low the knee joint.
He was put aboard the train arriving
in Worcester at 1920 O'Clock. The police
ambulance was at the Union station
and took the man to the hospital, where
it was found necessary to amputate his
leg at the knee joint

RELIEF FOR DESTITUTE CUBANS.
AShip Loaded with 5000, 1000 rations
to Sail for Havana.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-The Ad-
ministration has well in hand its
preparations for sendiug relief sup
plies to the destitute Cubans. both in
the native army and in the civil popu-
iation of the island. A ship loaded
with 100000 rations, which have
been prescribed by the Subsistence
Department of the army will leave
Tampa today for Havana, and the
distribution OF food among the desti-
tute will be made from that city.
The War Department for some reason
is observing great secrecy in regard to
the plans for sending the relief sup
plies, and the officials will give no de-
tailed information on the subject.
The shipment to be make from
Tampa to-day is the first OF several
which arctic be sent within a. short
time. The President, is resolved to
carry out his policy OF believing that
it is the duty of the Government to
do this, in view of the declarations
which were made at the time the
causes for war with Spain were dis
cused. The War Department will
detail number Of soldiers from regi-
ments now stationed at Tampa for
duty on the relief ships as military
guards. 1t has been especially decid-
ed to allow the Red Cross Society to
take charge of the food distribution
in Cuba, although strong opposition
to this course has been manifested by
the subsistence officers of the army.
