Der OF men who are willing to sacrifice
their time as delegates TO the consti-

The Central Federated Union yesterday. in con
fornity with the recommendation Of President
Compers of the American Federation of Labor some
time ago. has decided to take steps to form an IN
dependent political party The idea was started by
the reading Of the minutes of the miscellaneous
section In which proposition to nominate specldl
candidates for Supreme Court Justices was reterreo
to the Central Federated Union, with the request
that II take action on the matter next Sunday. The
minutes stated that II high time for organized

unions were acting within their legal rights

executive committee. He said that something def

done for many years at intervals.

Detective Sergeant Price and his men are at
the end of their rope. They will continue the
examination of the Stenton house rather as a

odds and ends of refuse of every sort. A large
parlor was in fairly good condition. Across the
hall, Mrs. Stentons room contained mouldering
remnants of food, broken furniture, dirty cloth

The kitchen filthy. The only broom in the
house was one taken there by Mrs Stentons
nurse few days ago.
The rooms upstairs were in even worse con-

some few broken chairs and some rubbish. The
bed was covered by dirty, tumbed clothing. An

School Principal and Wife Capture Fish from

Lake Placid, n. Y, June II (SpeciaD.-Many
wonderful fish stories have come out of the Adj
rondacks. but it is doubtful II any equal that
vouched for by Myron r. Van Ness, principal
of the Lake Placid High School. man of un-
questioned integrity and high standing in this
community.
With Mrs. Van Ness, he went fishing the other
day In the Cascade Lakes on the preserve Of the
Cascade Lakes Club of which Governor Higgins
Mrs Van Ness could not manage to land the
fish nibbling at her hook. Finally she got an ex-
cellent bite, and giving the fish plenty of time
got him fairly hooked. When she attempted to
pull him in however, he fought furiously. and
the slight pole she was using nearly broken
in the struggle
Mr.. Van Ness went TO his wtte's aid, and be-
tween them they managed to tire the fish out
He finally foated to the surface, and they got
glimpse of a monster lake trout, fully two feet
long Overjoyed at her good luck Mrs. Van Ness
gave the line gentle tug to pull the fish ashore.
Then remarkable thing happened. The big
fish gasped as If in death struggle. opened his
mouth wide and out popped a smaller fish. with
the hook firmly fastened in its mouth. With an
angry snap of his tail the big fish turned and
disappeared beneath the surface The small
fish when pulled in limp and half dead, meas
ured eight inches in length.
Old fishermen here explain tho occurrence by
saying that the big fish swallowed the little

hook The big lake trout in Adirondack waters
commonly prey on smaller fish.
