TEACHERS WILL VOTE
Committss yfssn Lstislatuss Expect {. a Ia Waterbury Next Week

The arguments that have been made for and ngainst the bills to pension the school teachers and principals, and to retain the superintendent of schools in office permanently, will be put to the test by the committee on cities and bor0ughs next Tuesday afternoon. Ac- c0rding to member of the committee 1t would be unfair to the teachers, and the advocates favoring and opposing the two bills not to accept Senator Phelan's invitation, or rather chal. lenge, to give the teachers chance to express themselves in a secret ballot under the auspices of the committee.
 Ill the face of such arguments as those made by Senator Phelan and Senator Peck at the last hearing, the committee decided 1t could scarcely do anything better than to satisfy them. selves In personal way on the merits of the controversy over the bills. So wide was the difference between the arguments put forth by the respective senators from Waterbury that several members of the committee concluded there must be vital error in some di- rectiOn. For according to these argu- ments. of the 215 teachers 100 of them had invoked Senator Phelan to oppose the bills, and about forty of them had talked with Senator Peck and helped him buckle on his fighting togs to do battle for the bills. Superintendent of Schools Tinker stated to the board that secrecy. while SenHtor Phelan implied Intimidation was used and that the school principals were aware how the teachers in their respective schools voted. The arguments. 50 forcble and yet contradictory. and Senator Phelan one against many, yet positive and sometimes almost pugnacious. the com mittee determined to come to Water. bury next Tuesday afternoon and as certain what truth there was in the representations made about the two 'bills
 . The voting will be held in the dis trict court room on Leavenworth street. under the personal supervision of the committee. What method will be employed is not yet known, but it is presumed that 1t will be as simple as possible. It is said, however. that slips of paper bearing the words Yes" and No" will be used. A report has it that one of the polling booths will be erected in the court room and as much precaution for privacy as that prevailing in the city elections will be taken, so that every protection will be given the teachers In. order that it cannot be said by them they were not given every safeguard to express them selves truthfully and fearlessly.

LOST HER CASE
Counssl for Hrs. Barrett Will Araue
 to Have Aotien Set Aside.

Mrs Annie Barrett has lost her case against N. F. r. Hansen to recover $45 for three tickets from Liverpool to New York. The jury in the district court yesterday reversed Judge Burpees de- cislon in the city court by giving Mir Hansen verdict.
 Judge Burpee held that when Mr Hansen accepted the deposit of SS5 from Mrs Barrett to furnish her with three tickets for $45 he made coIl- tract which he subsequently violated when he refused to give the tickets because the rate war between the steamship companies was over and the price of tickets went back to the for mer figure.
 Counsel for Mrs Barrett will argue 10 have the motion set aside at short calendar next Saturday. In all proba- billty the case will go to the supreme court. as the point involved is of con siderable interest to the legal fra ternity to have it decided.
 Judge Cowell refused to have the verdict in the suit of Baxter X Bro against the Hotchkiss & Templeton Co recorded on the ground that 1t was against the evidence. How the jury came to the conclusion favorable to the defendant In the face of the eyi- dence is puzzle to the court. Ibwas admitted that the defendant returned to the plaintiff the money, $7.5O, they sent for certain quantity of sweet corn seed, and that the defendant. de- clining to send the seed, returned the money minus 50 cents to the plain tiffs. who. however, Immediately sent 1t back. Judge Cowell's refusal of the verdict leaves the case as it was be. fore 1t was tried.
