George Gowdy Start Baking.
 New Haven, June 12.-The master bakers have made decided forward movement. Becoming tired of waiting for their old hands to come back and becoming more tired at receiving a flat refusal to arbitrate. they have set to work to reopen their plants by hiring new men. They first gave one more chance to the old hands to come back. None coming they obtained new men in New York and elsewhere.
 A lot of new men arrived yesterday, and lot the day before.
 MT Thompson has had cots and bed ding put in at his bakery for the &C., commodation of his new men.
 The boss bakers who signed ne union agreement several weeks ago have not enlarged their plants in any way, and are working their union men night and day, notwithstanding tho union demands that the men shall work days only. The other boss bakers who haven't signed consider this an in justice to them. as the union allows these shops to bake bread in violation of the union requirements and the chief thing that the unions are contest ing for. Moreover, none of the union bakers are taking any steps to enlarge their plants so that the union men need work only in the daytime.

After the meeting had been called to order by Clerk M. O. German, Thomas B. Walk or was elected chairman. Reports of the. committeeman, John l.. Anderson, Tax Collector Charles Tyack and Treasurer Israel L. Upson were read and accepted. The reports were very favorable and showed that the district is in growing and fourishing condi- 't1on. Very pleasing was the report that every cent of the school tax for the past year was collected. This was something never done before in the district. There was general satisfac= ton and nothing but words of praise from all sides for the methods en- ployed in conducting the school affairs during the past year. The children have made rapid progress in their studies. The election of officers result ed as follows: Committeeman, John L. Anderson; clerk, M. c. German; treas urer, Edward J. Carver; tax collector, Charles Tyack; auditing. committee, Thomas Walker, NJ. c. German. MT Carver is the only new officer, the oth- CTS having been reelected.
 This warm and dry weather is apt to make persons dry and thirsty, When persons feel thus they should at once seek a remedy for the benefit of their health. The best remedy is those temperance drinks which are sold at A. O. Walkers drug store. Here the finest soda is sold, the best of fruit / juices being used. The ice cream soda
 is delicious.

Operatives Hope For an Early Set~
 clement and Victory.
 PHILADELPHIA, June 12. The granting of concessions in four mills and the coming out of the operatives in another has revived the hopes of the textile workers for an early settle ment of the strike. The possibility of it's extension to the engineers working in the mills was another important feature of the day. A suggestion along that line was thrown out by Isaac Cowan of Cleveland, O.. general inter- national organizer for the Amalgamat- ed Association of Machfnists, an or ganization whose headquarters are in England. The proposition has not yet been taken up by the executive coun- formally presented to them.
 Two of the four mills conceding the shorter~work week included the grant ing of sixty hours pay for ffty-fve hours work. They were the Grown Knitting mill and the Mckinley 6 Klink Spinning mill. The other places yielding to the strikers demand were Regar & Oughton, upholstery mill, and Alderman Bros, hosiery establish ment. This makes eighty-six concerns whose employees are working but f1f- ty-fve hours week,
 The Firth & Foster Dye and Finish ing works, one of the largest estab- hshments of it's kind in the city, was reported tied up by the going out of the burlers and menders in the finish ing department. The borders and full fashioners at the Buck Hosiery mill tied up that esta blishment also.
 The executive committee Of the tex tile workers, which is conducting the strike, report. conditions in the Frank ford, Kensington, Manayunk and Southwark districts as unchanged. In all these sections referred to except Manayunk a pra actieal tie up exists. Mass meetings are being held daily in Manayunk, and efforts are still being made to bring out the workers in the Fairmount district who have not yet struck.

"OId Nassau" was sung whenever a train started with 1908 men aboad.
