Strike Situation Is Unchanged, and Men
 Await Developments.

Await Developments.
 The strike of the machinists, local ly, seems to hitch upon the result o1 the conferences between the shop com. fnittees of the strikers and the Sargent factory. It is generally agreed among the strikers, and was so expressed last evening that when Sargent's gives in everybody else will give up."
 Meantime there are all sorts of committees out and all sorts of con- ferences; some helpful and some not so. The Kilbourn Bishop men went to work yesterday morning after a weeks S absence. It was said at strikers head quarters in the Insurance building last evening that the men returned because they got a nine-hour day, substantially, but did snot get the whole of the 12% per cent increase in wages demanded.
 Only four "scabs' have been seen hereabouts during the past week, but peared from view, either through coer- cion or incompetency.
 There are no changes in the situation at any of the shops. The strikers are confident, and so is the other side It is said that Sargent & Go. has made some very favorable propositions look ing toward settlement of differences but it is not so much a question in that shop of the nne-houh day as 1t is of a substantial increase in wages. The men demand 1922 per cent, and the entire question hinges on that propo- sition. The firm agrees to some con- sessions, but does not fully meet the requirements of the union
 The strikers are good natured withal, and last evening spoke jokingly of Mir. Sargent's reply to their shop commit tee the other day: You fellows are away behind the times! I got nine hours day ten years ago."

LAYING THE CORNERSTONE
NOTABLE CEREMONIES AT Y. M. c.
 4. BUILDING YESTERDAY.

Governor Mclean Held the Trowel-
 Admirable Addresses at the Grant
 Opera House-PrestdentII IIadl ey, Mayor
 DriscoII, Dr. Mckenzie of Cambridg,
 and Others Among the Speakers.
 Yesterday was an eventful day in the
 history of the Young Mems Christian
 association of New Haven, in that it
 saw the laying of the corner stone of
 the fine new building now erecting on
 Temple street, facing Center street. The corner stone was put in place by Gov
 ernor Mclean, accompanied by his
 staff, in the presence of multitude,
 and there were cheers for him, and for the building. { The structure is expected to cost com plete about $25OO and of this sum, Ca
 quarter of million), up to yesterday
 noon $1S5, ,000 had been raised. That left a balance of $65,000 yet to be secured
 But during lull in the exercises yes- terday afternoon note was slipped into the hands of Samuel H. Read, chairman of the building committee, which told of an additional pledge of $10,000, making the deficit to date $55, 900. MT. Reads announcement of the generosity of an unknown donor was greeted with enthusiastic applause.
 Weatherwise the day had been un- propitious until almost up to the hour for the exercises at the Grand Opera House to begin, and further discontent was caused by the delay in the arrival of the governor and many other visit ors, who were held up by a railroad wreck and did not reach the Grand Opera House fop more than half an hour after the programme had opened. But the clouds broke just in time and the corner stone was laid in sunbeams, the ceremonies most fittingly.
 On the stage were seated many prom inent citizens and officers of the Y M. c. A., including: Secretary W. c. Lotze, Hon. John Robinson, Mayor Rev. A. V. Higgins, Rev. w. A. Beardsley, Rev. David Levy, Presi- dent A. T. Hadley, Governor Mclean. President P N. Welch, Professor F. K. Sanders Rev. G. s. Eldridge, Dr. B. F. former general secretary; Rev, Anson Phelps Stokes, Professor H. W.

START OF THE BATTLE.
Hartridge and Collins Forces the
First at the Polls.

The Hartridge and Collins workers
were the first to reach the Court House
in the morning, and when the polls
opened at o'clock the first votes for
these candidates were deposited. Capt.
McAlpin's forces arrived shortly after
wards. There was a steady stream of
brown ballots until they were dupl-
Gated by the Hartridge crowd for the
purpose of getting the workers for Nc
Alpin mixed. The Hartridge people
were successful, and the next "sus-
picious" ticket was of a brick dust
hue. These, too, were duplicated and
all sorts of ballots were in use during
the day.
Crisp bills were flashed early in the
game, and when it became known that
there is no law to cover vote buying in
a primary election, the long green was
openly displayed. No pretense at Sc
Crecy was made, and the workers of
some of the candidates decided that it
would be necessary to resort to desper-
ate tactics. Then it was that the
scheme to raid the McAlpin headquar-
ters was planned by the Hartridge and
Collins supporters.
In the neighborhood of thirty husky
workers started for the little frame
house on State street, but somebody
had tipped off the occupants, and they
prepared themselves for the rush. In
some way, too. the police got next to
what was happening and rushed to the
headquarters. The three forces met.
and the raid was ended. The combined
forces of Collins and Hartridge would
probably have gotten through the Nc
Alpin lines but for the presence of the
police, who were on the alert. The
attempted assault on the State street
house occurred at IL o'clock, when it
became generally known that City At
torney Adams had officially notified the
Mayor that nothing could be done to
stop vote buying in an election such as
was being held.
One of the defeated candi-
dates stated that he had been APP
preached by more than one man whose
outward appearance entitled him to
the name of gentleman, and who SEEM
ingly was prosperous enough, but who
announced that he wanted to vote

FOUND DECOMPoSED BODY.
WeII-KnOwn Negro Carpenter Died
Alone Tuesday.

The decomposed body of Arnolf
carpenter, was discovered yesterday in
his room at No. 500 Mill street. The
man was in bed, and the door had been
locked from the inside. 1t was broken
open by Patrolman Umbach, who was
sent from police headquarters to make
an investigation. There were no sus-
picious circumstances connected with
the carpenters death which is believed
to have occurred Tuesday night from
acute Indigestion.
Methin lived in a room on the sec
ond floor of the house, and was last
seen alive Tuesday night by colored
girl named Ester Cuthbert. He moved
to the house Monday and on Tuesday
afternoon repaired a window in his
room. On the same night the Cuth-
bert girl carried him supper and he
seemed to be in good health. He prob
ably suffered from the attack of in
digestion after he had gone to bed.
Yesterday a woman who occupies an
adjoining room, noticed an unusual
odor, and traced in to the room oc-
cupied by the carpenter. She found
the door locked, and at once suspected
that Methin was dead.
The woman telephoned to police head
quarters and the sickening discovery
was made by officer Umbach. Coroner
Keller was notified and gave permits
sion for the removal of the body to
the cemetery for burial. Patrolman
Umbach learned that Methin has
wife and children in New York city,
