White of Obtuse, last Thursday night.
He had been quite poorly for some
months and to his immediate friends
his death was not unexpected. 1t is
thought the immediate cause was a
paralytic stroke. OF four sons but one
survives him. Mr. White was a ma
chinist of skill and ability and would
be considered anywhere a skilled work
man. The funeral took place on Satur-
day, Rev Mt Whitcome conducting the
service. The body was taken to Hart
ford for burial, Prindle & Morris being
in charge of the funeral arrangements.

TROUBLE IN THE
SICILIAN COLONY,
Italians Have Split on the Question
Of the Propriety of Fruit Ped
ding by Boys.

The Sicilian colony In st. Louis, between
Morgan and Wash from Sixth to Ninth
streets. is split into two factions over the
question OF fruit peddiii<- by children. Ev-
cry day for the last week the police have
arrested Sicilian boys for peddling lemons
and other fruits without license. and In this
course have had the support Of q faction
in the colony. backed by Milanese, Genoese
and Neapolitans. who live in other quarters
OF the city.
Judge Wislizenus, before whom all the
boys cases have been tried, called upon
Father Spigardi Of the italian Church to
learn the priests attitude in the matter.
Father Spigardi said that he would do moth
ing TO obtain leniency for those arrested, as
he believed the children should be kept of
the streets, even II not sent to school. He
said yesterday that officially he could take
no action in the matter for fear Of dis
RIPPING his congregation, but he hoped the
laws would be enforced in such a way as
to remedy the evil, which. he said, was
harmful to the moral growth Of the boys.
The retail fruit business Of the city Is in
the hands of the Sicilians alone. The two
factions in Little Italy" where the Sicil-
ians reside are championed by Frank lap
sends his sons out with baskets Of lemons
and his neighbors side with the North Italy
population In opposing peddling by children.
The North Italy faction. with their adher-
that the boys should be kept on the streets.
Those Of the opposing faction say the
nrst duty OF themselves and, their children
is to gain livelihood. and that as the boys
they might as we'll be started In that bust
ness at the outset.

RETURNED PAY ROLL LISTS.
Proof Wanted of Water Depart
ment Appointments.

President Phillips of the Board OF Public
Improvements yesterday directed com,
munication to Water Commissioner Flad
drawing attention to an ordinance reqnir-
ing his approval to all appointments of sub
ordinate employees. The pay rolls of April,
May and June were returned with the let
ter. with request that Mr.. Flad submit
for approval the names Of new laborers
whose appointments have not been con-
firmed.
It seems that several members CT the
House OF Delegates combine succeeded in
obtaining situations In the Water Depart
ment for constituents. The places were
filled after the House held up the tenn
porary appropriation bill, and threatened
TO eliminate the appropriation for Water
works extension. Mr.. Phillips was criti-
cised somewhat for taking this action be-
fore the general appropriation bill shall
have become a law. but his friends argue
that the House is committed to the Swee-
ney bill and cannot restrain Speaker Gro
min from signing It.
On the other hand. 1t is also said that
NJ. Phillips Is not attacking the appoint
merts. but Is insisting on exercising all the
prerogatives OF his Office. For this reason
he is indicating to Mr.. Flad that the Mu-
nicipal Code ordains that the President of
the board shall approve all appointments.
The Incident, i is said, is solely a demon
otra3ion OF policy.
