BACK TO WORK
Forty-Three Bridgeport Trolley
 Men Went on To-Day
WHAT PRESIDENT WOOD SAYS

Strike is Still on and Deserters Will
 Be Fined $5O-They Will Be Unable
 to Secure Work Elsewhere Unless
 They Pay Up-Grumbling at New
 Britain Over Interference of Trolley
 men-New Haven Strikers Sentenced
 to State Prison. +.s
 Bridgeport, July 13.-Despite the ac- tion taken at meeting of the trolley men Saturday, when a vote of 4a to l9 was in favor of returning to work, President Frank Wood to-day said the strike was still on and sixty members were upholding MT Wood. The latter also said that the So-called deserters will be expelled from the union and a fine of $50 will be placed upon each one of them. He concluded with the statement that the names of those men who returned to work would be pub lished throughout the United States and Canada and they would be unable to secure positions in any city where union labor is recognized until the fines were paid. Of the forty who voted to return to work, forty three were placed in positions on the lines this morning. President Mahon of the Amalgamated Association of Street Railway Employes is expected here soon.
 New Britain, July 13.-Many union men employed by the trolley company and the leading business men of the city have protested against the pro posed action of the Central Labor union of this city to place the lines of the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Go on the unfair list. Pressure from the Waterbury and Bridgeport strikers to do so is being brought to bear.
 New Haven, July 13.-Patrick Mur- ray and Thomas Sullivan, the two striking teamsters who were convicted in the superior court last Friday for as sault on Joseph Kenny, non-union workman, and also for conspiracy to assault Kenny, were to-day sentenced to one year in jail and $1 fine for the assault case, and on the charge of con spiracy were sentenced to not less than fifteen months nor more than two years in state prison.

4 VERSATILE SNNDLER.
"Prof." A. A. Arthur, Badly Want
ed by the Police Of a Dozen Cit
les, Caught at Monmouth, Ill.
he OPERATED UNDER VARIOUS NAMES
Object the Acquisition of other
Peoples Coin Without Rendering
a Fair and just Equivalent
Therefor.

Chicago, June 20.-"Prof." A. A. Ar
thur, a septuagenarian who has been
sought by the police of a dozen cities
for nearly a score of years, has been
detectives.
Arthur has operated under many
different names, and when he was ar
rested papers were found in his pos
session indicating that he was trav-
cling as the vice-president of a bank,
a professor in an eastern college, a
tourist, a lecturer and a minister.
In his satchel was found a full bank
ing outfit, including 500 imitation
drafts on the National Park bank of
New York. The police of Chicago
have been working on the case for
more than a year, or ever since it was
discovered hat the drafts were print
d in this city. where the professor"
apparently had headquarters.
The alias, prof. Arthur" was the
name under which he made his last
appearance; an eminent member of
the faculty of Hamilton college, as
he is reported to have represented
himself. He was to have lectured
Thursday night in Hinsdale on Egypt
and the Orient"
As 81. s. C. Bliss he is said to have
posed as the vice-president of the Peo-
Piles national bank of McMinnville,
Tenn. "A quantity of drafts and sta
tionery, duplicates of that used in the
southern bank, were found in his pos
session. 1t was while working in this
guise that the prisoner is alleged to
have deceived many persons in the
smaller cities, and even some in Chi
cago.
As as. c. Bliss" he was represented
as a tourist just returning from the
orient and Egypt-a lecturer. Letters
of Endorsement, given by pastors, were
found by the police.
As REV. A. ID. Postham." it is said
the prisoner professed to be a Meth
odist preacher, driven by his health
to travel in the mountains of Colo
RADIO, securing funds and entertain
ment by delivering and Supplying"
the pulpits of many churches.
"Arthur's'' latest alleged swindle,
by which he is alleged to have OBJ
tanned $4,000, is thus described by the
police:
He would deliver a lecture, and
when about to leave would produce
a New York draft, sometimes $25
and sometimes $500 or more. The pa
per appeared regular in every way,
and there seldom was difficulty in
cashing it."
-. S. c. Bliss is wanted in Kansas,
Nebraska, Indiana and Illinois.

New Trial Necessary.
THE NEXT TRIAL TO Be AT cYNTHIANA.
Gov. May Take . Hand In
the Matter When All the Facts
Are Laid Before Him by State
Inspector Hynes, Who Has Been
Studying the Case.

jackson, KY, June 2O.-But for one
juror Curtis Jett would have been
convicted here, Friday, of the ,assas-
sination of Attorney J. B. Marcum,
and a majority of the jury favored the
conviction of Thomas White also.
Both are tonight in Jail at Lexing-
ton, and their next trial will be at
~Cynthiana, more than one hundred
miles from Jackson, away from the
mountains and in the Blue Grass re-
gion, under very different conditions
from those existing in Breathitt coun-
ty.
The interest in the change of n
was second only to the verdict. When
Judge Redwine refused to hear argu-
ments on the change of the location
it was stated by many in the court
house that the presiding judge had
heard from Gov. Beckham, who is gen
orally believed to have had something
to do with the change of venue to
Harrison county, which is in the
Eighteenth judicial district of Ken
lucky, where j. J. Osbourne is the
circuit judge, L. P. Fryer is the com
monwealth's attorney and the sheriff
and other court officers are also IA
vorably known.
With such general confidence in the
surroundings of the next trial, there
is a general belief here that every
thing is for the best after all" If
the verdict had been one of convic-
ton the residents here feel that vio-
1ence would have followed, and that
it would have extended to others than
witnesses, jurors and those who had
taken part in the prosecution. 1t is
thought now hat after the trials of
Jett and White in Harrison county
the cases of other assassins who are
known here and who have never been
arrested, will be taken up with some
assurances of justice on a change of
venue. Among the cases cited is that
of the late DR.. Cox, whose friends re-
fused to secure witnesses for any
jury in Breathitt county that was Sc
lected under the present regime.
The next case on the docket here
was that of Curtis Jett, for killing the
town marshal, James Cockrill, but it
will be postponed until after the
trials at Cynthiana.
Col. Williams is at Frankfort con-
ferring with the governor regarding
the withdrawal of the troops. 1t is
understood that he advised the gov
that no number of troops could
stop the lurking fire bugs or the hid
den assassins, but that at least one
company should be retained in Jack
son as long as Provost Marshal Long
mire was kept in charge of the town.
The troops that escorted Jett and
White to Lexington will not return.
There is still much apprehension in
the community for the future and
many here share in the movement in
different parts of Kentucky to have
Breathitt parcelled out for annexa-
ton to other counties
