CLOTHES BURNED.
Three Men Suffered Through
the Careless Handling Of Naph-
.tha by Joseph Gayton.

Joseph Clayton, city lamplighter
poured some naphtha on an oil stove yes.
terday forenoon with the result that three
men were burned and two rooms and
some clothing in J. W. Harrison's cottage
on Eleventh street were damaged.
II happened about 10 o'clock and box
1876 was pulled in at 1905 in consequence.
Clayton, it is stated, was sitting in his
wagon near Harrisons house and snap
ped his whip at one OF Harrison's boys,
who was playing on the sidewalk.
The boy cried and his father ran out
and expostulated, whereupon Gayton, IL
Is alleged, followed Harrison into the
kitchen, taking his quart can of naphtha
with him.
He sat on childs rocking horse near
the lighted oil stove the naphtha can be-
ing i'm close proximity to the stove.
Harrison objected and Gayton, who is
stated to have said that he guessed he
knew how TO manage an oil stove as
well as anyone, tipped the can and half
pint of naphtha dropped on the stove.
There was big blaze at once. Harrison
and his father-in-law. Richard A. Tolly.
were burned trying 10 get the blazing
naphtha can out doors.
Gayton VINO was said 70 be intoxicated,
ran into an adjoining room, his clothing
all ablaze In the next room, on a sew
ing machine. was some clothing that ig-
nited from Gayton's.

beginning week ago today there has
been a strike on at the Narragansett
Brewing Companys plant at Arlington.
The bottlers employed there, or, at least
ID OF them, went for more pay.
They had been receiving 50 per week, ir
is understood for six days work of 10
hours each, instead OF the $l2 per week
demanded by the scale of the c. I. l.. U.
AS no action had been taken by the la
Dor union toward ordering strike at the
brewery. the announcement this morning
that the entire force at the Narragansett
might be ordered out brewers and all,
caused a little surprise.
The first that was known OF any diff
Guilty at the brewery was when
members of Brewers Helpers
Unions No. l66 and ia were notified to
meet with the, executive committee of the
c. r. L.. u. last Friday evening to dis
cuss the troubles between the members of
Bottlers' Union No. 155 of the Narragan-
sett Brewery and their employers.
Then came out a peculiar state of af-
fairs dating back three or four montis.
IL seems that one Alec. Kramer, who
was formerly teamster for the Eagle
Brewery, is president OF the Bottlers'
Union at the Narragansett. He is also
a member of the executive committee OF
the G.. r. L. u.
According TO one of the bottlers who
struck last week, Mr.. Kramer, who is a
German. while most of the strikers aN
Irishmen (some with families). was look
ed to TO bring the matter properly before
the executive board and he agreed to do
so. II is said.
Whether the board took no stock In the
Sottlers claims, or whether Herr Kramer
oft off more than he could chew, does not
appear.

Men Employed al the Narra-
gansett Brewery Quit Work.
They Want Shorter Hours and an
Increase Of Pay--A Peculiar Con-
diti0n Of Affairs.

What did transpire was tn strike OF
last week. without waiting for The sane
ton of the c. 7. l., U.
1t is stated that p esident Kramer en-
couraged the boys to strikc, well know
ing that under the rules of the union
they could not do SO without orders from
the executive committee
And the significant fact is that Kramer
is the only one who did not strike What
his object was In thus pulling the fellows
legs nobody knows. but that is 10 be in
vestigated and brought out it is stated.
IL Is also stated that Mr.. Kramer was
specially appointed on the executive
board so that he might help the men in
the Narragansett In settling all their diff
iculties.
At present, IL is understood the brewery
has hired few Italians 10 do the ardu-
GUS work OF bottling, but the complement
Is by no means full.
After the meeting Friday night there
was another Saturday evening. but no
definite action was taken at either.
IL was left TO special meeting of the
executive committee of the G. II. l.. IT,.
to be held at 3 D. m, yesterday, To de-
termine whether "A strike shall be ordered
at the Narragansett brewery. thereby
shutting down the plant, or not.
No strike has yet been ordered. II is
understood. but Is liable 10 be any day.
One thing that the bottlers kick"
about is 20 think that brewers helpers
can and do get SIC or $i7 per week ana
the Narragansett folk are not willing to
pay them the schedule-Si2 per week.
for as hard, IL not more dangerous work
Neither President Sullivan nor Secre-
terry Houston of the G. 7. l.. u. could be
seen today, so II is not known just what
will be the next move.
Bottlers' Union No i55 belongs to the
National Union.

a manner that carried Joy to the hearts
of their progenitors. The baseball game
was the principal attraction and the
cranks and ''rootcrs" were delighted
when Providence won.
The vaudeville show at the Forest
Casino was one OF the best of the season
and came in for large share of the
patronage, while the chutes, railroads
and other amusements were also thor

WHAT FRANCE WILL DO

Paris, Nov. 2S.-The conversation Mr..
ident Kruger had with the French Min
lister OF Foreign Affairs. NJ. Delcassc,
yesterday. was confined to the former
sounding the latter as to the probable
attitude of France in certain eventual
tiles. Mr.. Kruger did not press for 4
definite reply and the conversation
lacked preciseness. NJ. Delcasse let II
be understood that France had not
changed her attitude since he explained
the governments position in the Cham
Der OF Deputies last March. France will
not take the initiative IN Intervention
In South Africa but will not discourage
any other country from so doing. On
the contrary, she will join In such lni.
tiative taken under such conditions as
appear to her to merit acquiescence.
Mr.. Kruger did not intimate what he
intended to do, but II Is believed lie
will take the official diplomatic step at
The Hague. II Is not known whether
he will ask Holland to propose media
ton or open other and less clearly de-
fined negotiations.
Mr.. Kruger today drove to the School
OF Fine Arts to inspect the plaster mod
el of the monument to be erected to the
memory Of Col. Deville Bois- Mareuil.
