IN AND ABOUT THE COURTS
BOOKSELLER FORGE NOT GRANTED
 4 NEW TRIAL.
Went to Wethersf1cld Yesterday Re- ceiver for Butler S AIger Appointed preme Courf-City Court Matters.

In the criminal side of the superior court yesterday afternoon Judge Rora- back denied the motion of William L. Force for new trial. A number Of Forces friends decided that there was new evidence that warranted the grant ing him of another trial. Judge Rora- back heard them and denied the motion Force will now have to be committed to Wethersfield.
 The court says that the testimony of Michael Cutler the insurance agent, concerning the business relations of Force to A. H. Down, whose store at 99 Meadow street was the one entered, falls far short of sustaining the most important and material allegation con- taied in the application as to the own ership and possession of said store"
 The court further says: Secondly, the evidence as to the accounting does not sustain the proposition set forth in the application in this connection"

SCHOOLS AND PLAY
 GROUNDS.

Reports and Exhibition of Work To-
 Morrow Afternoon.
 All those interested in the work of the vacation schools and playgrounds are urged to be present at an exhibition of the children's work to be held to- morrow afternoon at 3 o'clock on the ground floor of Boardman school. At that time reports will be read by Mrs. James Kingsley Blake, chairman of the vacation school and playground com mittee, and by Miss Jessie I. Scranton, the superintendent in charge of the schools and playgrounds.
 In addition to the exhibition of the manual work of the children there will be shown a collection of photographs of the children themselves.

THE VETO MESSAGE.

 Was Announced Yesterday

Text of Mayor Studley's Veto Which
 Was Announced Yesterday.
 The following is the text of the veto message by Mayor Studley which was announced in this paper yesterday morning:
 To the Honorable Court of Common
 Council of the City of New Haven:
 Gentlemen-I herewith return the resolution de revision of the city char ter and ordinances with my disapprov al, because, in my opinion, the cost of the revision should not exceed the sum of $500. While the supply of copies is exhausted and necessarily some incon- venlence will result therefrom pending the revision, yet think 1t would be bet- ter that the revision should be made af- ter June next, when the board of coun- cilmen goes out Of existence by opera tion of law, and some changes in phra- seology will result.
 I would suggest that it would be bet ter, for obvious reasons. that the revis- ion be made (when it is made) under the supervision of the corporation coun- sel, the legal advisor of the city, by persons selected by him for that pur- pose. Respectfully,
 JOHN P. STUDLEY, Mayor.

ENTERTAINMENTS
HvpertOn Theater. ANDREW MACK TONIGHT.

ANDILELW MASn Tonight at the Hyperion Andrew l Mack will be seen in his successful play Tom Moore" An exchange says of the presentations: Andrew Mack, the singing comedian, began his annual en- sagement at the Walnut last night in Tom Moore," a play by Theodore Burt Thayer, founded on the life of the fla nous Irish poet. In From Moore MT. Mack has never been seen to better ad- vantage than in the part of Ireland s
 favorite singer.
 The play Is witty and overflowing
 with clever repartee. It is in four acts and begins in the district school, where
 Moore than an obscure rhymster loves the school mistress, Bessie Dyke. The story further tells of Moore's life in London his quarrel with Bessie through the interference of Sir Percival Lovelace, and his rise and fall in the favor of the Prince of Wales. The plot plot is consistently worked out, the &C., tion brisk and snappy, and the dialogue sparkling with wit. MT. Sayer's life of the stage From Moore" differs some what from that of the Irish minstrel,
  ing.
 MT. Mack has done nothing better than From Moore" As the sentimental singer he was seen to uncommon ad- vantage and his sweet voice was heard in many delightful numbers. Two of his songs Loves Young Dream" and "The Story of the Rose," were loudly applauded. The songs were not drag ged into the plots sin most plays of this character, but seemed quite appro- introduced. MT. Mack was ably supported. Miss Josephine Lovett was a sympathetic and charming Bessie" Moore's sweetheart, and she acted the part with the ease and grace which makes her as one destined to bright future. George N. Nash made the part of "Sir Percival Lovelace" as villainous as was required, and Theodore Babcock was entirely satisfactory as Lord Moira,' Moore's friend and patron.
 The symphony poem by Moreau, the young French pianist, who comes here with the Emma Nevada company at the Hyperion Friday evening next, is paving quite vogue with the big Eu- ropean orchestras at present and it is quite possible that it will be heard in this country during the present season. i At the London musical festival last | May 1t was given by the combined French and English orchestra and was voted the novelty of the festival. The tile of the work is Sur la Mer Loin- .aine," and the subject illustrated by he composer is taken from Pierre Ioti's we'll known "Pecheurs d'Islande.'

R. 1amlin, which is sufficient guarantee f the excellence Of the production. The day Is now having long run in Bos- on and comes here direct from that ity.

STRIKE WILL BE GENERAL.
If Cotton Mill Operatives Quit Work
 Trouble Will Result.

Charlotte. N. C.. April 25.-Dr. J. H. Me- Alden, President of the Southern Cotton Spinners' Association, said today that he had heard of no developments regarding the proposed strike of cotton mill opera tives on May 1.
 Do you think the operatives in the South will strike if ordered to do so?"
 If the strike is ordered by President Gompers of the Federation of Labor 1t Is sure to be general" he replied. That Is, every section of the country Will be af- fected by 1t. I do not think there has been much organization among the mill people except in the cities or towns. and am sure that most of the organization has been perfected in recent months. 1'he union seems to be strong In Raleigh. Bur lington. Greensboro. Concord. Gastonia and in Charlotte, but there are rot many members of the union among the opera lives of mills In rural districts. At Mo- Adensville. for instance the operatives are not members of the union and declare they will have nothing 70 do with the strike and operatives in other country places have a similar feeling"

POWDER WORKS EXPLODE KILLING AND |NJUR|NC 15O 0R MORE MEN Boilers and Powder Cylinders Burst and Set Fire to the tne FactoryFumes of Burning Chemicals Made It
 Impossible to Stay in Neighborhood

the greater part of the Frankfort fire department and the troops are trying to prevent its spread to the buildings out side of the fire zone. Hospitals have been improvised in the vicinity The flames apparently originated by the blowing up of vats of chemicals In the explosive de- pertinent of the works at o'clock this afternoon. The fire spread with frightful speed to the adjacent buildings and then over the River Main to Schwanheim. When a second explosion took place the fumes and masses of burning chemicals made it impossible to stay in the vicinity. The inhabitants of Gresham were ordered to leave their village, which they did, fleeing to Frankfort.
 The last explosion occurred at 7:3o p. m, and when it was ascertained that no further danger was anticipated the in- habitants were allowed to return to their homes.
 At S:30 the fire was burning in the cen ter and the work of extricating the bodies torchlight, gas light not being obtainable All railway traffic from Frankfort was stopped during the fire except for trains carrying the injured, but it has since been resumed.
 Four sheds for dressing the wounds of the injured have been erected. The catastrophe originated in a small fire which ignited several receptacles of picric acid, causing a terrific explosion.
 It is still impossible to say definitely how numerous are the victims
