CHANGE IN DEPOTS.
Boston and Albany Now
Runs Trains Into New
Terminal.

Boston, July 29.-The entire passen-
ger traffic of the Boston and Albany
railroad was transferred today from
the companys station on Kneeland
street to the New South Union station,
and hereafter all trains of that road
will arrive at and depart from the new
terminal. The change was made with
out difficulty, but tomorrow it is ex-
rected that there may be some delay
in running the large number of daily
trains in addition to those of the two
divisions of the New York, New Haven
and Hartford railroad.
1t only remains now for the Provi-
aence division of the latter road to
leave the Park square station and come
over to the new station to complete
the quota of the roads for which the
new station was built The transfer
OF that division, however, will not be
made until September. The Plymouth
and Midland divisions of the New Ha-
! en-, used today for the first time one
of the spans Of the big roller lift bridge
over the Fort Point channel, just out
side the station yards and the new
bridge worked to perfection.

New York, July 23.-Hundreds of del
egates representing the trades union
in New York were present today at the
regular meeting of the Central FEEDER
ated union, at which the organization
in the new labor party came up for
discussion
The project was enthusiastically en-
dorsed by the delegates, number Of
speeches being made in it's advocacy.
A convention was formally called for
Aug. 7th, the place of meeting to be
announced later. Every union and re-
form body in the city of New York will
be asked to send delegates and an or
ganiza ton will be effected
At the meeting today, Samuel Prince,
president of the Central Federated
Union, presided. Master Workman John
M. Parsons and District Master Work
man Pines were among the speakers,
and the former spoke strongly in favor
OF the POLITICAL movement. He said the
time Cor acting had arrived, and that
the unions of this city must either
show their power as American people
or go down to destruction. He asked
that a treasurer be appointed - act as
treasurer of the fund to be~s@ lsed &c
aid the strikers. This was done. and
delegates of various unions then
pledged sums ranging from 500 to $500
each, and gave assurances of more
money If needed.
Theirs was further talk on the strike
and one OF the delegates denounced
the board Of aldermen, saying. "They
had $4,000 to give to entertain Al
miral Dewey, but not penny for the
poor strikers. For them there were DO
ljcemen's sticks and prison celia"

NORTH CRAFT IN IT.
Finlayson, Bousfield Com
pany in the Thread
Trust.

North Grafton. July 23.-The expected
has happened, and the local plant CT
the Finlayson, Bousfield & Company,
limited, has been absorved by
the big thread trust. For several
weeks past. it has been evident to those
who are in position to follow matters
of this sort, that the local mills would
eventually fall into the hands of the
combine, though it is extremely doubt
full if any OF the 500 employees of the
mill knew that any such deal was OH.
The Finlayson, Bousfeld Company of
Grafton, limited, is one of the best
known thread manufacturing firms in
this part of the country, and its pro-
auction is worldwide in it's reputation.
ii is safe to say that as fax thread
spinners, the corporation has no peer
IN New England. This fact, combined
with the other circumstances which
have come to the notice of The spy
man, removes any possible surprise
over the fact that the deal has 3,'vn
made.
When the Finlayson, Bousfield Com
pany first came to North Grafton sew
eral years ago, there was joy untold
in this part of the hill town Outside
other industry in North Grafton at the
| time.
The company began in a business
Ike way, and soon skilled labor from
all parts Of the world began to arrive,
until at the present time 500 employees
answer to the call to work morning
and noon. The major portion of the
employees are English and Scotch, and
no better class of citizens can be
found in this part of New England than
they.
The transaction by which the Fin
| layson, Bousfield Company, limited,
became part of the mammoth trust.
was made Saturday. All of the de-
tails had been previously arranged, and
when the officers of the company met
those of the big thread trust, but a
few moments were consumed in con-
summating the big DEAL
The deeds We're passed quietly, the
revenue stamps showing the price paid
to be 1921, 900. 1t is understood that the
mills viii be run as usual, and so far
as any of the employees are concerned,
| they will practically know no d .ffer-
ence between the original company and
the present owners.

THE WORK OF RUFFIANS
Mrs. Jacob Fisher Wounds Burglar After
He Had Placed Revolver Muzzle
Against Her Temple and Stolen
$500 and Valuables- Hus-
band Was Away.

Webster, July 2S.-The quiet little
neighborhood surrounding the small 10
acre farm of Jacob Fisher, in Webster
Gore, was visited last night by bur-
glars who got away with about $500
and many articles Of value.
Fishers farm is situated about two
miles out Of Webster, on the Sutton
road, and is at least half mile from
any other farm house. Here Fisher
lives with his wife and two children.
The robbers evidently knew that Fisher
had left last night for Boston, for the
farm was never nolested before.
In the afternoon about o'clock, the
family drove its head to the depot in
Oxford, where Fisher took the GAS train
for Worcester. The family returned
home and found things all right and re-
tired at a rather early hour
About 11.45 Mrs. Fisher was awakened
by peculiar noise in her room. She
was frightened very much, to say the
least, but gained courage enough to
raise up and demand Of the intruder
what he wanted
The reply the ruffiian gave her was
that it was none of her business, all
that he wanted was the $3.50 Fisher had
in his trunk which he had received re-
Gently from the sale of a wood lot.
| The robber threatened to take Mrs.
Fishers life, and placed the cold nozzle
of a revolver he had in his possession,
against her forehead.
BY this time the rest of the inmates
of the house were awakened, and two
children came running to their mother.
The robbers companion, who had all
this time remained in the background,
now came forward and, taking the two

room.
Mrs. Fisher had a revolver lyinsa
beneath her pillow, but in her fright.
forgot all about it. She acoeded to the
robbers threats, and to save her life
and those Of her children, unlocked the
trunk which contained the money. The
robbers, who were masked, sprang for
the booty, and after getting 1t into their
possession, left the premises.
Mrs. Fisher had now recovered hev

pulled out the revolver and with great
courage, cooked, aimed and fired the
pistol at the fleeing men. Her aim
was good, and took effect in some part
of one of the mems bodies. It did not
cripple the man, however, and he made
good his escape. That the shot took
erect was proven this morning bv
large drops of blood which were found
| and traced for a quarter Of a mile bv
the neighbors
The lady fired four shots after the
first one, into the air, to make the men
think the officers were after them, and
also for the purpose Of awakening the
Phillips family who live in the next
house.
| Mr. Phillips and his son were imme-
diately on the scene, but the robbers
had a carriage and a fast horse with
which they left the place.
There is slight clue which may
lead to the arrest of the robbers. Near
the spot where the man was struck by
the bullet fired from Mrs. Fishers re-
Volver, there was found robbers
mask with the initials f. o. N. on tho
inside.

SCRLEY'S LAST CALL
At the Navy Department Before Co
ing on Board.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Rear Admiral
Schley. who is about to assume com
mand of the South Atlantic squadron,
called at the navy department today
and had a long conference with Acting
Secretary Allen concerning the general
character of the trip on which he is
about to embark. 1t was the admiral
final call before going as he goes on
Thursday to New York, where on next
Saturday, he viii raise his flag on the
cruiser Chicago. The sailing orders of
the ship giving her route and destina-
ton have not yet been issued and it is
said no definite determination has been
reached on this point.
The admiraIs visit led to renewed
conjectures as to the probability of his
going to some of the South African
ports AS to this, however, the admiral
declined to say a word and there was
the same retince throughout naval cir
cles It is understood. however, that
the governments general line of policy
as to the South African war will be
made known to Admiral Schley before
he sails, as thereafter he will be the
executive officer in closest touch with
that field of action.
