 This settlement has nothing whatever to do with the alleged boycott of the firm constructing the White City at Savin Rock by the lumber dealers of the state, simply for the reason that a number of the striking Waterbury car penters have been employed in connec- tion with the work.
 The contractors of the White City and the carpenters union are resolved to take a determined stand in the matter, and if there is a refusal of any dealers ito furnish lumber to-day a course of action has been decided upon which it is said will bring refusing concerns in- to court on a charge of conspiracy.
 A meeting of the directors of the Con- necticut River Lumber Dealers asso- citation was held in the office of Louis Mansfield Grand avenue, yesterday afternoon, and whether or not the meet ing had any special significance with reference to the present troubles could mot be learned, but it is said that the matter was informally discussed.
 To-day is likely to be one of much interest in the circles of the building trades and the events may become of enough importance to attract national interest and bring some people into un- desirable prominence.

patent office received the congratulations
Of his associates today, on the completion
of his twenty-fifth year in the government
service. Mr.. Irelan was appointed as

fore the civil service rules protected his

ment. Mr.. 1relan is native of Maryland.

CHANGE FOR THE BETTER.
Local Meat Dealers Report Small De-
crease in Price.

Merchants report a slight change for the
better in the local meat market today. On
some grades Of beef the price has dropped
a cent a pound, and there seems to be no
suffering on the part of any consumer.
There has been some talk about the retail
butchers taking advantage of the present
situation to sell meat at a much greater
advance than the selling price of the whole
sele dealer justifes. This report, however,
in nearly every instance, has proved I'M
true 1t Is explained that only the better
cuts are marketable in Washington; pla .e
beef. the bone and fat bringing no more
now than when choice cuts are cheaper.
These poorer parts weighed with the
carcass, and if the price of the latter is
increased the better cuts have to stand
the advance for the entire carcass, SO far
as the retailer is concerned
Believing that agitation of the meat ques-
ton hurts their trade the wholesale butch
ers prefer not to discuss the situation to
any great extent. The aba.ttoir men de-
clare they are not alarmed over the situa-
ton: that there will be no meat famine
and that prices will be little above normal
during the rest of the strike

A Young Globe Trotter.

Maritus Hechter, a young Roumanian, is
the latest addition to the list of globe trot-
ters. Young Hechter arrived here this
morning on his way to the St. Louis expo
sition. He left Burcharts, Roumania, fif-
teen months ago, and has to complete his
tourney within eighteen months from the
date he started In order to win a purse Of
1000 francs. This prize was offered by
the Roumanian Tourist Club to any Rou-
manian who would walk to the world
fair at st. Louis and earn money on the
trip to provide for his sustenance. During
Hechter's long walk across Europe he met
with many adventures and was received
by the crown heads of the various countries
through which he would pass.
In appearance Hechter Is a dark, pleas
ant-featured lad, about seventeen years Of
age thin and wiry from his continuous
pedestrian exercise. The young adVenturer
has received great NUMBER OF medals
during his trip from the rulers OF Germany
Belgium Austria and other countries, all
of which are worn neatly upon his breast.
Stuck in his picturesque crimson sash he
carries a revolver and a handsome broad
bladed dagger, which Is equally serviceable
for stabbing wild boar or piece of
bologna sausage. At times during his
lonely trip he has been without either food
or drink for as much as twenty-four hours

boars through the mountain Businesses and

Two companions started with him on MS
trip but one of them was shot and killed
by a band of Bulgarian bandits and the
other died from sickness.
The incidents of his travels are all re-
corded in book carried by Hechter, which
also contains the signatures and good
wishes of innumerable mayors, councillors,
editors and other influential persons.
In walking his average pace is four miles
an hour, and, judging from his appearance,
he could keep it up for considerable Pc
Rod In addition to an overcoat or gray
cloth. which affords protection from the
damp midnight dews and to hide his med
ais, Hechter carries knapsack strapped
to his shoulders. His boots are square toed
with long flaps.
