QUIET DAY in WATERBURY
NO VIOLENCE AND FEW ACTS OF
LAWLESSNESS.

Heavy Dowup0ur of Rain Keeps the
People from the streets-Cars Operated
ON Schedule Time but Few People
Ride-Strikers' sBusses Well Patron-
tzed-sermons on the Strike.
Waterbury, Feb. S.-To-day, the be-
ginning of the fifth week of the strike
of the trolleymen employed by the Con-
necticut Railway & Lighting company,
was extremely quiet and no violence
was reported in any of the districts.
The day opened with light snow fall
ing, which soon changed to a heavy
downpour of rain and this aided mate
rally in keeping the people from the
streets.
The cars of the company were start
ed out at the regular hour and during
the entire day were unmolested. De-
spite the rain few people took advan-
tage Of the cars, while the 'busses run
by the strikers did a good business.
Early this morning it was reported
that in Naugatuck the feed wire which
carries the power to that city had been
cut in three places. A repair car was
Immediately sent out and this trouble
was soon remedied.
In almost every church in the city
the pastors took occasion to refer OF
the strike situation and to impress up
on the peoples minds the necessity of
keeping the public peace.
Shortly after dark a few cases of
stone throwing were. reported from the
Brooklyn district and on the Oakville
line a number of horse shoes were
placed upon the tracks, evidently for
the purpose of deraiIing the cars. No
damage was caused and as the night
wore on the disturbances were discon-
tinued.
The deputies who were riding on the
cars made an investigation of every
disturbance but made no arrests.
The small crowd. which was on the
streets early in the evening slowly dis
persed and the streets were deserted
when the cars were run into the barns
at midnight.

Monticello, N. Y, Feb. 8.-Mrs. La
fayette Taylor, of Centeryille, Sullivan
county, to-day confessed to having
killed her husband, Lafayette Taylor,
and burned the body on January rs to
escape detection. Taylor disappeared
on the night of January Is and was
supposed to have deserted his family,
On Friday, February 6, Mrs. Taylor at
tempted to sell a horse to Cent nterville
man, who would not buy for fear Tay-
lor might come back and claim the
horse. Mrs Taylor told him to rest,
easy on that point, for she had killed
him and burned his body.
The fourteen-year-old daughter Of
the Taylors was asked about the story
her mother had told about having killed
her father, and was offered five dollars
to tell the truth. She said the story
was true. Mrs. Taylor was arrested,
and to-day made full confession. Her
story is that Taylor, who was a hard
drinker, came home on the night of
January 25, very drunk, and immedi-
ately began to abuse her. She secured
a revolver, which she had purchased a
few days before, and tried to frighten
him. He attempted to take it from her

ened for fear of being arrested for
murder that she decided to cut up the
body and burn it. Her fourteen-y year
old daughter witnessed the shooting
and helped her mother to cut up the
body in small pieces with an axe and
burn it in the kitchen stove with the
clothing Of the victim. The bones were
ground fine and fed to the hens The
blood-spots were covered UP with paint.
The Taylors live on farm mile from
the main road and the chances of dis
covery were few. ii
Mrs. Taylor is about forty years old.
She says she confessed because her
crime haunted her. She was brought
to the Monticello Jail tonight. The
daughter has not been arrested.

Campaign Against Crime.

Louisville, Feb. S.-A campaign
against crime in Louisville and Ken
lucky was begun by the ministers of
the state to-day. In nearly every
church in this city special services were
held and the ministers and prominent
laymen made addresses urging reform
in the administration of the criminal
laws. Specials from various points in
Kentucky state that similar services
were held in the churches throughout
the commonwealth. The direct cause
of the action of the Ministerial associ-
alton was a number of murders which
have occurred in Louisville and
throughout the state during the past
few months,

in Pay.
Boston, Feb. S.-Delegates from vari-
GUS street railway unions of the Old Col
ony and the Boston and Northern sys-
TENS of the Massachusetts Electric COM
panies will meet in Boston tomorrow
to take preliminary steps towards secur-
ing substantial advance in wages, the
recognition of their unions and general
ly improved conditions. These delegates
will represent nearly 1000 men. They
are instructed to demand 25 cents an
hour, 80 cents an hour for over time and
the recognition of the union. From this
stand the delegates claim they cannot
recede unless further instructed. In
Lynn, the headquarters of the unions
of employees of the Boston and Northern
system, street railway men say that
there is little Likelihood of strike, the
idea being to accomplish as much as
possible by repeated requests rather
than summary action at this time. In
Fall River, the headquarters of the Old
Colony system unions, the men say they
are unwilling to cause strike to gain
their object, having in mind the violence
in Waterbury, but in the event of re-
fusal of their demands the national as
sociation, with headquarters in Detroit,
will be asked to take charge of the sit
uation.
The Boston and Northern street rail-
way men made their requests for bet
ter financial and working conditions
some time ago and We're promised an
answer by tomorrow. Anticipating
that it will be given as promised, a gen.
been called for tomorrow night to re-
ceive it. In Fall River the statement
is made that all demands have been
fatty refused. The chief point, it is
claimed, is the recognition of the Anal
gamated Railway Employees union.
Tonight it is anticipated that the Bos-
ton and Northern system officials will
make public it's answer in Lynn early
tomorrow without formally recognizing
the union. In such a case that answer
is expected to be much like the an
nouncement recently made by the Bos-
ton Elevated road inswhicf the employees
are placed on graded wage scale and
with a premium for long and faithful
service, and made eligible to a pension,
the new plan to go into effect on March
1 and to be extended later to the Old
Colony system

Blockade is Raised. NJ
4 washington, Feb. S--The representa-
ttves of the allies here are busily en-
gagged in the preparation Of the proto-
coils which they are to sign with Mr..
Bowen for the reference to The Hague
Of the question whether the blockading
powers shall be entitled to preferential
treatment in the settlement Of their
claims. The blockade will be raised
when the protocols are signed. They
are in constant communication with
their governments on this subject and
are anxious as far as possible to cover
every detail which should be comprised
in an instrument of this character Mr..
Bowen also is anxious that the proto-
coils shall be Identical so far as this may
be practicable, and he is directing his
efforts to that end and also that they
shall be signed on the same day.
Mr.. Bowen was in communication
with the English and italian ambassa-
doris and the German minister to-day.
He saw Sir Michael Herbert at the lat
ter's home, the ambassador still having
disagreeable cold. From the instruc-
tions he has received Ambassador Her
bert has prepared the draft Of proto-
col, which he submitted to Minister
Bowen. 1t was the first of the three
protocols which have been prepared.
and the manner in which it was drawn
was very satisfactory to Venezuela's
representative. Nothing seriously oh
jectionab1e has been inserted in its pro-
visions and the minister found only one
or two places where he felt called on
to suggest any change. He is convinc-
ed that the ambassador is making every
effort to bring the tvexatious matter to
a close and to arrange protocol which
will be mutually satisfactory.
The italian ambassador was at Mr..
BoWen's apartments on two occasions
to-day with reference to the terms Of
the protocol and Baron Sternberg saw
Mr.. Bowen to-day for conference re-
garding some feature Of the instrument.
Minister Bowen continues optimistic
of an early settlement and speedy rais-
ing of the blockade. He is hopeful no
perplexing or vexatious problems may
intervene now that the matter has pro-
gressed so far and that it will not be
long before the whole question is settled
in its primary stages, the raising Of the
blockade, arbitration Of the question ot
