 ing for Sunday Outbreak.

 Buttons and Were Paid Off This
 Morning. N
 Bridgeport, May .22.-The city off cials of Bridgeport will not be taken unawares in case there are serious dis turbances of any kind in connection with the trolley strike. The police commissioners began last night to make arrangements for housing and feeding of the entire police department Saturday and Sunday. Never before in the history of Bridgeport has force of reserves been kept at the precincts and the present move is therefore re garded as important.
 Bridgeport, May 22.-For the first time since the strike of conductors and motormen began a week ago, all the lines of the Connecticut Railway & Lighting Go centering here were i'll operation to-day, though not with tne usual quota of cars. To-day the com pany had 45 cars running, and promises to resume it's regular service in full next Monday, with a night as well as dav schedule. Ordinarily 68 cars are in service here. General Manager sew ell says his reason for not running cars at night has been the lack of familiar ity on the part of the new employees
 DxrA AT,o Rrscs% of next week he will have all the regu lar day an night trips resumed, mean while continuing to operate cars as al present between 8 a. m. and D. m.
 No trouble was reported this morn ing, and the deputy sheriffs on guard on the cars had practically nothing tC do An evidence of the return of con f1dence on the part of the public in the safety of trolley travel was seen in tho marked increase in the number of pas sengers carried by the cars. The rain was also factor in the increase of business.
 The strikers buses were filled tt their capacity on most early trips. Late in the forenoon, after the rai1 stopped, the patronage of the car: dropped off noticeabIy and was abou l the same as on previous days.
 The strikers today referred to tht loss of one man who they said had re turned to work for the company. In response to notices issued by off scials of the company yesterday, tn, union men to-day turned in thei badges, buttons andNother property ant 1 received the pay due them.

Allen, in the service of an Antwerp family, was allowed vaca- tion some time ago in order to go to Washington to see his family, accord ing to an Antwerp dispatch to the Her aid.

When Placed Under Arrest To-day He
 Resisted-Drew a Revolver and
 Tried to Do Officer Lonergan.
 New Haven, May 22.-Officer James Lonergan, patrolman of the Grand avenue precinct, to-day made cap- ture which is considered of much inn portance in connection with recent dis turbances due to the strike of team sters. Last Tuesday afternoon a non union driver named Hutchins was passing along street near Belle dock when he was attacked by persons in d crowd of a thousand or more who were on their way to the factories in that neighborhood, and was roughly ham, dled. The police made two arrests at the time, but man who drew re- volyers and fired twice, neither shot taking effect, managed to escape. Since then the police have been making quiet search for the man, their only clue being that he wore white cap. This forenoon Officer Lonergan located a suspect on canal boat which was about to leave one of the docks, and after struggle, in which the man drew a revolver and a razor, put him under arrest. To Captain Brewer at the Grand avenue station, the man gave his name as Francis Brown. He is said to have been former truck driver, but was not a member of the teamsters' union. His revolver, which is of thirty eight caliber, contains five chambers, three of wflich were loaded while the other two had empty shells, believed by the police to have been discharged during the attack on the trucknaan Tuesday.

 taliates for Boycott.
The Shut Down Will Be Made in an Effort to Defeat the Drivers Union On Saturday at Noon the New Order Goes Into Effect.

AL @NcOAA SAAS @NOW SANASA
 Goes Into Effect
 New York, May 22.-In return for a boycott of the labor unions on a lum- ber yard in Brooklyn, the lumber trades association has decided to close all the yards of Brooklyn and Queens, which, with those now closed in this city, will practically tie up the lumber market. As far vaster business is done at the yards in Brooklyn than in this city, this latest move shows the intention of the dealers to defeat the Material Drivers union even at great pecuniary loss.
 A concise statement from the lum- bermen as follows told the tale:
 "A boycott on the lumber of the All bro J. Newton Go of Brooklyn has been declared by the labor unions, no tice being served on as many as three operatives that lumber delivered by that company would not be used by the union men. On Saturday at F o'clock noon, lumber yards in Brook lyn and in Queens as well as those now closed in Manhattan and the Bronx will cease delivering lumber in Brook lyn and in Queens. .
