HE4RINGS Friday.

The Montpelier license board held q
five hour session Monday evening at the
home of Chairman William L. Dewey
and divided the entire time between
studying the law and discussing the
local situation. 1t was decided that
at the public hearing to be held at the
city council room on Friday evening
the licenses would be taken up in the
order in which they appear in the
published notices. The board will
welcome free discussions of each APP
plication and if objections are made
the applicants will have chance to
speak for themselves. Present indica-
tions are that some public objections
will be made.
1t is not improbable that after the
hearing some of the applicants will be
given an opportunity to withdraw
rather than have their applications
formerly rejected. This it is under
stood does not apply to cases where
are there objections for reason.
In all probability no award of IL
censes will be announced until after
the hearing on William Miller's appli-
cation for first class license, which
occurs on April 10. An exception,
however, may be made in the matter
of druggists licenses as the commits
sion feels that liquor for medical pur-
poses should be on sale as early as
possible.

FURNACE ACCIDENT.

Pittsburg, April IAN accident at
furnace 81" of the Edgar Thomsan
plant of the Carnegie Steel company
at Braddock yesterday is expected to
prove one of the worst in the history
of the plant in the number of deaths
resulting. Twenty men were injured,
six of whom are dead, and ten are
in the hospital and are not expecte d
to recover.
The accident was caused by a
"hang' in the furnace dropping and
forcing large quantities of white hot
dust down a large pipe into pit
where the men were at work. The
victims caught like rats in a trap,
were without means of escape and all
burned and blistered over their entire
bodies and large strips of flesh peeled
off their bodies when they were pulled
out of the pit by fellow workmen.
Furnace "I'' is equipped with the
famous electric "skids" that are now
used on all United States Steel cor
poration's blast furnaces.

Waterbury, Conn, April 1.-Decid-
ed progress has been made in the po-
lice court during the trial of the
eighteen men charged with assault
with intent to kill William Merena
and George MoIrisette, conductor and
motorman respectively of the trolley
Car which was attacked by band

50, 600 each, probable cause having
been found by Judge Peasley. The
remaining thirteen prisoners will be
arraigned in court today.
A portion Of the testimony of every
witness which caused considerable
comment was the positive statement
of each man that they had been prom
ised immunity from punishment by
iCol. Burpee and others providing they
told what they knew about the assault.

TERMONT Association

Boston, April 1.-The Vermont as
sociaton of Boston has definitely de-
cided that its pilgrimage to Vermont
this year shall be to the east side of
the State. At maple sugar party
held there last night at the Hotel
Westminster Judge f. E. Alfred, j..
A. Prouty and W. W. True of New
port, VT, in behalf of the board OF
trade of that town, extended cordial
invitation to visit Newport, and
Frank II. Brooks of st. Johnsbury
asked the organization to include that
town in its itinerary, While it has
not been decided officially that these
towns will be visited, there is no
doubt that they will be the objective
points. 1t is expected that $50 or
more will take the trip
The association passed resolutions
of sympathy for ex-Gov. w. w. Stick
ney in the loss of his estimable wife,
who was pleasantly remembered as
having entered the association last
year.
There were 1875 members at the din
ner and Vice-P President ALDER Clarke
presided. The maple sugar was
served in chatting dishes and then
served on ice and in saucers. The
unique plan proved very successful.

PAINTERS SHORT STRIKE

Barre. April 1.-The members of
the Painters union we're out about an
hour and half this morning owing
to the failure of the master painter to
sign the new agreement. The old
agreement expired at midnight and
the master painters held out against
the new demand which increases the
minimum wage from twenty five
cents to twenty-six and one-h half cents
an hour. When it was seen that the
men did not propose to work until the
new agreement was signed the bosses
held meeting at @. A. Heath's office
and made short work of coming to the
terms. The men resumed work al
$50.
