NEW ENGLAND BRANCH NET.
Yesterday afternoon in the rooms of the
Bartenders union there was a session of
the New England branch OF the Bar
tenders union. when several matters per-
tanning TO the good of the body were dis
posed OF.
There were a number Of delegates from
all over New England. and since this was
the time for the settlement OF the cues
tlon or the rejection OF the constitution
adopted AT the last convention every dele
gate sent from the several unions was
on hand and took the greatest amount OF
interest in the meeting.
The question was brought up soon after
the opening OF the convention and there
was a long season OF discussion. The
effects OF the adoption OF the institution
were freely made known and the whole
proceeding of the convention which adopt
ed the measure was gone over.
After all had a chance TO speak on the
matter the vote was taken, and II was de-
cided 10 reject the same. The constitu-
tion was of such nature that II was
thought that the doom OF the Bartenders
union was sounded IN It. owing TO the
power which 1t took away from the
unions in the east and elsewhere. one
OF these was the right TO dispose Of the
moneys owned and collected by the va
rous unions
The new constitution provided for the
turning over OF all tho moneys of the
various unions To the general treasury
and the expenses from that body be paid
from the general treasury. All the money
over that was 10 go 10 the expenses Of
/. .g,l, ~ to -
for themselves The bartenders saw
that II was a scheme 10 weaken them NJ
the expense OF other portions Of the
country and hence voted against the
mea sure.

Point for a dinner and then to Crescent
Park for an outing where a bowling team
competed for honors. Messrs Murray OF
Pawtucket and Hayes Of this city were

ampton and A Hearne OF Manchester.
I History does not record the winner OF the
contest but does make note OF the fact
that there was not one in the party that
did not fall far off the water wagon,
though Hayes proved 20 have the best
control OF mundane affairs when IL was
time TO return 10 this city and IL fell 10
him 10 see that the party reached haven
