According to the police officials man left with them last night SUCK of dynamite about six inches long. Who the man was, where he found u or anything else about it the pollce ulu not wish to say. Inference, LhereloIe is a mater Of choicel When the oIn. cials of the strikers were informed or the find they said they would not De surprised to hear of barrel ot uyna- mite being found. The men employed on the cars probably knew all about IL, the strikers would not be surprised II the explosive had been found Dy one of the strike breakers. They them selves knew nothing about it. MT Dlu- worth said strike breakers use dyna- mite for their own purposes. It Is re ported found wherever there is strike, but never until after batch of strike breakers have been imported to the town, where the strike happens to be. Then it is found to create sympathy, to cause alarm. But there have been cases where the dynamite turned out to be a fake, composition containing very little of the explosive matter. However, they knew nothing about it, but would not be surprised if it deyel- oped that the dynamite came to town with the non-union men.
 A man alighted from a car on East Main street yesterday afternoon and entered saloon. Taking out a rolF' of bills he threw one on the bar and said:
 'AGiye me a little schnapps.'
 TIa had 1,iS sSnbnanTlS', and bn wajte6 for his change. He waited so long that finally he said to the barkeeper:
 Haven't you forgotten something ?'
 The barkeeper looked around in evi- dent wonder and then said:
 Guess not"
 What about my changer said the man
 'Oh. there's no change coming to you" replied the man behind the bar, and the other man, looking as if he had been frozen, backed out. remark ing: Didn't know I was in the Klon- dike.
 A man yesterday applied to David B. Meth, superintendent of the linemen employed by the trolley company, for a job MT Meth ascertaining from the man that he belonged to the Linemen's $ union, told him there was no vacancy for such as he, as the company would hire no more union linemen. This closed the interview and thus was fur nished another proof that the Connecti- cut Railway and Lighting Co.'S attitude in the strike of the trolleymen is aiming to break up the union and all other branches of organized labor in their employ.

Still he said he could not tel l what would happen, some people are so unreasonable. Talking on the actor of the Winchester and Torrington Trol 1 ley Co, he said in raising the employees l wages to 21 cents an hour, it was { | good auger for the local situation Surely if such a small company.

Before he leaves town MI I DlllWorth said he would furnish : l basis which he expects will lead LID tt a settlement. So far he has taken nc active part in the situation. as the citi zens' committee appears to have tn,
 matter in good shape
 There is no truth in the rumor tha1 the drivers and conductors on the un lon buses intend to strike for more wages and shorter hours.
