 To-day is pay day with the strikers Each of them received a check for the full amount, $4 for unmarried men, $6 for married men.
 John J. Flynn of Brooklyn, N. r., one of the vice. presidents of the Fed eration of Labor, is in town to-day trying to adjust the differences be- tween the moulders and the employers at Matthews & Willards.
 The secretary of the local union has received telegram from the secre- tary of the Ansonia union bidding him to be of good cheer; that the men im- ported to the town were not machin- ists and therefore cannot harm the cause.
 A meeting Of the machiniSts that were employed by Cross 6 Speirs was held this afternoon, at which 1t was voted that the committee should inform Mir Cross that his terms were not ac- cepted and that they would not return to work under the circumstances. MT Cross was so informed. Late yester- day afternoon he was confident the men would return to work.
 It is reported that the Benedict & Burnham Go has been sending much of their work that they were accustomed to having done in the machine shops in Waterbury to Torrington. If this is so the company cannot be making much money in that way of doing business, and although there are but very few machinlsts out down in that large factory, evidently they have be- gun to feel the effects of the strike.
 'Why, the Farrel foIfndry will not let Cross x Speirs make any agreement with the strikers" said g manufactur- CT yesterday, when he heard Of the conferences between the firm and the strikers. When asked the reason why, he simply said that the Farrel foundry would come pretty near say iMg what should be done in this case Is it so, then, that there is little trust among tho manufacturers, or the ma 5ority of them, in this city? Those re- ports were very prevalent during the nrSt days of the strike and perhaps there is some grain of truth in them.
 One of cur local manufacturers, who is but drop in the bucket when com pared with the majority of the Water bury manufacturers, but who has been the loudeSt shouter and kicker against the union and union men, was very outspeken against Cross & Speirs Manufacturing Go for even limiting that they wanted to have a conference with their workmen This man ac- cussd the firm of lack of backbone and was very bitter in his talk Those who heard him paid no more attention to him than they did the other even ing when on his way home to supper, in the cars, he made the statement that a striker that would insult workman ought to be shot dswn. It is just as well that this manufacturer is only a little part of the community, and 1t Is also q reason for thankfulness that the larger manufacturers are not given to silly, nonsensical talk in public and are not throwing or lot of Supernu- ous gas.

Tacoma, Wash, June 12.-All gov ernment work on ships, according to arrangements made by the local union and a Bremerton union, may be done at the Bremerto dry dock without in- terference of any union on Puget Sound.
 The committee of machinists and boilermakers who went to Port Or chard returned, and afterwards a meet ing was held and the order to quit work was rescinded. An officer of the local union says:
 "The Tacoma, as we'll as other un- ions on Puget Sound, was aware that the movement to take the government vessels to the drydocks was intended to involve the Puget Sound machinistS' unions with the government. There fore we were prepared to meet this movement and have authorized all strictly government work to be done there.
 'This decision will permit the Rose crans and the Bear to go to the dry dock to complete repairs, and local men will be given work there"
 New Britain, Conn, June 12-The non-union machlnists employed at the Stanley works had the police escort them to the depot last evening after work and crowd of several hundred followed them. There was some jeer- ing by the crowd, but there was no attempt at violence.

 The Ansonia Sentinel in telling the story of the arrival of the trainload of men says as follows:

He says that when he attempted to break away from his companions this morning he found it difficult to do so. as the doors of the foundry were locked and he could not get out until after re- peated attempts. Finally he gained the street and was immediately escort ed to headquarters.

PAMPHLET ON BOER WAR.
Portuguese Consul Places England
In n Bad Light.

Portuguese Consul Places England
In Bad Light.
Viscount de Matelha formerly con-
sui general and special plenipotentiary
for Portugal in the Transvaal, says the
London special correspondent Of the
New York Tribune. has issued PAM
phlet reviewing the administration in
South Africa during the last quarter of
century. The viscount throws little
light on the political intrigues Of the
Boer government. He states that
Conyngham Greene, the British repre-
sentative at Pretoria, was kept we'll
informed Of the doings Of Mr.. Kruger
and the preparations that were being
made by the Beers for war. Mr.. Greene
was also supplied BY friends with the
correspondence Of the Transvaal rep
resentatives and agents In Europe with
Pretoria detailing their interviews with
different foreign ministers on the Eu-
ropean continent, besides copies Of Of
fetal and secret correspondence that
went from Pretoria to Europe.
1t Is only fair to assume that Mr..
Greene forwarded all the documents
that came into his hands to the Brit
ish government, so that 1t becomes
more difficult than ever to understand
England's unpreparedness for this war;
Copies of the secret correspondence are,
says the viscount, still in existence for
all that is known to the contrary. Be-
fore hostilities broke out one Of the
parties who held the information sent
| the particulars out of the country for
safety and future use. On the arrival
| of Lord Roberts at Pretoria an order
was given to send the papers back to
the Transvaal capital. Directly after
ward it was deemed fit to counter
mand this order, but lest the papers
should be lost the ciphers were confid-
ed to Major Poore, provost marshal at
| Pretoria.
The writer Of this pamphlet express
es the hope that when the time Is ripe
and seasonable the press will be In a
position to publish this correspondence.
With regard to the future, he thinks
that If there was a Laurier in South
Africa, one whom the Dutch people
could implicitly trust and believe In,
always close to the high commissioner,
there would be chance soon of Great
ing the desired harmonious whole by
making the able proconsul better un-
derstood and appreciated.

wild Balloons In Connecticut.

An invasion of simians threatens the
farmers Of Fairfield county, says dis
patch from Derby, Conn. Last August
a large female baboon which was on
exhibition at Pine Rock park escaped
and has been at large since. 1t Is now
found that she has given birth to four
young, and these, separating, have
scattered over the country. Many Of
the rural residents knew nothing of the
original balloons escape and We're ter
rified to see the ungainly animals leap
ing across their fields. perched on way
side fences and even grinning through
their windows ut night. Rumors of
ghosts became so numerous that only
the most hardy would venture out ut
night. The mother was shot by Morris
B. Graves and Fred w. Beard. who
had found her taking eggs from a pi-
geon cote high up the side Of barn.
They gave chase, and the baboon had
swum across the Farmill river, thirty
feet wide, when shot brought her
down,
