LATEST FAIR HAVEN NEWS
BL4TCHLEY AVENUE FIRE
 HORKS OMITTED.

Concert Takes the Place of PyrOtech-
 nics-Fourth Quieter Than UsuaI-
 Grand Avenue Baptists to Put in Ten
 New Cathedral Windows.
 The usual celebration by the citizens of Blatchley avenue, which has been giv-n on the Fourth for number of years, was omitted yesterday. In its place, however, a fine concert was giv- en last evening at the corner or BlatchIey avenue and Grand avenue, by the Second Regiment band. An eX- cellent programme was rendered, in cluding several patriotic airs. A crowd of several thousand people from various parts of Fair Haven assembled and en- joyed the fine music and the promenad- ing on so fine an evening. As usual, BIatchley avenue was decorated with may flags, and Eor that matter the American ensign was well in evidence all over Fair Haven.
 The day passed off rather more qui- etly than for several years past. The church bells were rung and a consider able quantity of fireworks burned, but the night preceding the Fourth was re- garded as quieter than last year. Dur ing the day many people left town and there were many visitors here. During the day there were a number of private excursions down the harbor, and the fleet of motor boats were nearly all in commission.
 The trolley cars were well patronized day and evening. A great crowd was transported to the central Green to witness the fireworks, and it was late hour before the last of this section set tied down to its usual repose. So far as reported last night there were feWsr accidents than usual.
 The board of trustees of the Grand avenue Baptist church have voted to put in ten new cathedral windows in the auditorium of the church, Six of the societies connected with the church will each put in one window and the re- mainder will be installed at the expense of the church. This improvement will be very much appreciated.
 Mrs. Burton E. Phelps and daughter and Mrs. c. O. Norton have gone to Bar Harbor for month.

SHORT IN ACCOUNTS
HENRY M. ALLEN SAID TO HAVE
EMBEzzLED 81, 900.

In view of what transpired yesterday in
peared from his home at 1O6 Kentucky ave-
nue. last Wednesday morning, and sent let
tiers giving the information that his remains
would be found near Abingdon, Pa, the po-
lice about reached the conclusion that the
writing of the letters was done for the pur-
pose of throwing them off his track. The
alleged shortage in the accounts of the
treasurer and disbursing officer of the
symposium in the government printing
Office is placed at 81, 600 in warrant that
was issued from the Police Court yesterday.
William C. Beddow president of the money
lending organiza ton, swore out the warrant
after he had consulted the assistant United
States attorney and told him of the condi-
ton developed in the affairs of the associa-
ton
Detective Parham was given the warrant
to serve. He went to the home of the al
legged embezzler, on Kentucky avenue, and
interviewed members of the Allen family,
but they were unable to give him any In
formation In addition to that contained in
the letters. The parents of the missing
nan are here from jamestown, N. Y, and
are staying with their daughter-in-law and
her two children.
Mr.. Allen told Star reporter that he was
completely at loss to understand the
conduct of his son. At the place of his
birth. he stated, his son bore spotiess
reputation, and could have found friends
enough to have helped him out of any
financial trouble.

stated, "of course we will not shield him.

The American consul general at foko-

many and varied. The other night he
sisted at a Chinese wedding. The groom
sent word ahead that he wanted the consul
general TO be present to give him GER
tfcate, in order that he might carry his
wife into the United States. Later, IL was
explained that the Chinaman was born In

AMERICAN COMPETITION FEARED
New Zealand Workmen Hostile to

Special Cablegram TO The Star.
WELLINGTON, November 11.-Twelve
thousand workers have petitioned parlia-
ment to prevent the American Harvester
Company from doing business in New Zea-
land under existing conditions, as its OPP
erations not being subjected to labor laws
similar to those of New Zealand would, it
is claimed, be detrimental to the workers of
the colony. The petitioners demand that a
40 per cent duty should be imposed on all
goods sold by combination of this kind.
The implement manufacturers also ask for
prohibitive duties. The government APP
parently fearing hostility from the farm
ers, has not promised anything definite.
and, opposition may be expected from
the country members, legislation by the
present parliament is doubtful.

The missing man handled thousands of
dollars belonging to the symposium and
his honesty was never questioned. People
in the government Office who knew Allen
would have trusted him with any amount
of cash. as he had never done anything to
shake their confidence. 1t is said that he
was one of the most popular men in the
composing room of the big building. In adj
dtion to the 81 900 he is alleged to have
embezzled, 1t is stated, Allen obtained sums
of money on loans from number of men
In the office, for which. of course. he
agreed to pay the regular interest required
upon such loans. This money, it is said,
was obtained by Allen upon representation
that there was no money in the "sympo
sum-. and that he had applications for
funds. The receipts given for this money,
1t is claimed by interested persons, are not
binding upon members of the association,
as they do not contain the names of the
proper persons upon them. Aliens disap-
pearance caused great surprise to the people
who were associated with him in the print
ing Office, most of them having looked upon
him as being an exemplary man.
Friends Would Have Aided Him.
''If Henry Allen had come forward and
said he was 1000 short" said one of his
friends to a Star reporter last night, 1.-The
money would have been subscribed by his
friends and nobody would have been the
wiser, but his disappearance and subsequent
conduct put a different phase dpon the af-
fair, and I cannot tell what will be done If
he has not committed suicide and should re-
turn. Allen was not an extravagant man,
nor was he addicted to the use of liquor.
He perhaps had his faults, but 1t was not
until after he went away that his friends
were enlightened in this regard
