The police claim that they have obtained

They say that the man who was arrested
at Peterhof in connection with the assassi-
nation of Gen. Min hastily attempted to
swallow a piece of paper which. when re-
covered, proved to be orders in connection
with attempts to be made on the lives Of
high personages.
The Novoe Vremya says it has been es-

ACTION DEFERRED
MASTER PLUMBERS UNABLE TO
ANNOUNCE ARBITRAToRs:
Awaiting Information From the Men
Saskatchewan Abroad Of
Strike Resumption.

There will be no final action taken by the
Master Plumbers Association as to the
naming Of two members Of the board to ar
bitrate the differences with the journeymen
plumbers until Tuesday afternoon. 1t Is
expected by that time the two lawyers who
have been asked to serve will either send
their acceptance or refusal to act as arbi-
tiers. This information was received by
The Star from undoubted authority this
afternoon.
The Master Plumbers Association will
not meet again until Tuesday afternoon,
when 1t is believed the arbitrators on the
part of that organization will be named.
Mr. Robert B. Caverly. who is at the head
of the master plumbers executive board.
left this city at o'clock this afternoon. to
be gone until Tuesday. 1t Is not known
whether his going away has any bearing
on the selection of members Of the board
of arbitration.
There were reports current this after
noon to the effect that the journeymen
OF the building trades were dissatisfied
at the delay of the master plumbers in
making the appointment Of arbitrators
One rumor had it that unless the names
OF the mon selected by the employers are
announced this afternoon there will be
trouble. 1t was intimated that there
might be Sunday conference Of the
building trades and a decision to resume
the strike Monday morning.
One of the officers of the Master Build
ers' Association. when asked about these
rumors today. said he had not heard Of
them. He added. however. that he would
consider it manifestly unfair to the mas
ter plumbers for the building trades ito
take snap judgment" as he expressed It,
against the master plumbers by resuming
the building tie-up. 1t was his opinion
that as the Journeymen plumbers had in
augurated the plan of selecting lawyers
they ought to give the masters sufficient
time to select such attorneys as they de-
sire to represent them in the matter It
was intimated strongly that In this con-
tention the sympathies of the master
builders are with the master plumbers.
The matter Will De CONSIDERED TINS even
sentatives of the building trades to be
held at the headquarters Of the Journey
men plumbers in the Corcoran building.

Arlington Yutzler. At 12 o'clock, to the strains of the wedding march from Lohengrin, which was rendered by Miss Clara Mead of Falls Village, the process sion formed and marched to place, ar- ranged ill the front parlor, which was banked from floor to ceiling with hyd- Iangea forming a handsome background for the bridal party. The Rev. Charles N. Fitch led the procession, followed by Joseph c. Miller, brother of the bride, and William H. Oviatt of Bantam, as ushers. Then followed the flower chil- dren, who were Miss Dorothy Memmott, a cousin of the bride, and Master Harry A. Yutzler, brother of the groom, all ill white, who formed pathway with white ribbon, through which passed the bridesmaid, Miss $. Louise Miller, sis ter of the bride, attired ill white Persian lawn, and Joseph Carter Yutzler, a brother of the groom as groomsman, fol lowed by the bride gowned ill white silk batiste, trimmed with val. lace and inser- tion, with veil of tulle, and carried a shower boquet of white carnations and ferns. She also wore brooch set with pearls, gift of the groom, and with the groom brought up the rear of the pro- cession and took their places before the Rev. MT. Fitch, who with short, sim pie service, using the ring as pledge, made them man and wife.
 A short reception was held and con- gratulatious extended, after which the company adjourned across the way to the Masonic Hall, where a wedding breakfast was served, two tables the length of the hall, accommodating the guests, some D in number.
 MT. and Mrs. Yutzler left on the 2:20 express for two weeks absence, and the train being some ten minutes late, gave ample time for well wishes to be expressed, as was evidenced by the quantity of rice scattered all about the station.
 The village made holiday of the occasion and attended the wedding and gathered at the station in body, Smith & Sons store, where the groom has been employed for the past eight years, being closed. The gifts were numerous, being furniture, money, cut glass and silver.

The impression has gone abroad that the knen of the commercial traveller had been sounded and that his work was be- ing superseded by the mail-order busi- ness, but this impression is not founded on fact, according to Lauris Page, secre- tary of the Commercial travellers acci- dent association. MT. Page said: Dying out? Not in the least. In fact, the number of men in the profession is in, creasing steadily. until to-day there are twice es many men on the road as there were 30 years ago. Why, there are 50,000 that go out of New York, and about 10000 that go out of Boston. I should say that there are between 5OO,- 900 and 600, 900 at the present time.
