 Parents Left Behind.

New York, July 30.-In their haste to get out of their apartments at l33 Mott street yesterday because of fire Tony Cirella and his wife forgot their two children.

Still Fighting Over the Removal of a
 COnseryator. =


 Another attempt was made in the probate court this forenoon and af- ternoon by Edward w. Webb to have his brother, James w., removed as his conservator. In support of his con- tention that he is now completely re- stored to his capacity he produced a number of witnesses to show that his property on Abbott avenue is now in a worse condition than 1t was when himself had charge of 1t. On the other hand. 1t was shown by several witnesses that he was discharged from his position in the shops of the Waterbury Manufacturing company on account of his staying out and Drs Goodrich and Swenson stated that within a year they have treated him for alcoholic effects.
 When Webb married without the consent or approval of his conserva- tor it seems he plunged himself into all kinds of trouble. On account of a ruling by Judge Peasley the conser- vator Is not responsible for Mrs Ed ward Webb's board. and as he has refused to pay he has been sued by Mrs Marie Cummings. her iandlady. in the superior court. Judge Cowell repeated what he had said at the previous hearing held In May that Mrs Webb was a drinking and a de- signing woman and that she made two attempts before she succeeded in getting Webb to marry her.

LOWELL OPERATIVES ARE NOT SAT|Sf|ED Voluntary Increase of Five Per Cont IT Wages is Not Agreeable to
 Them THEY VENTED 10 PER CENT Forty Thousand Employees in New England Were Given the
 Increase.

Boston, July 30.-Forty thousand cotton mill operatives of northern New England receive to-day an inc crease of 5 per cent in wages. The operatives affected are employed in mills in Lowell, Mass, Manchester, Dover and Nashua, N. H., and in Wa teryille. Lewiston and Biddeford, Me. In all these places except Lowell the increases were voluntary by the sev-. eral mill arrangements. At Lowell the offer by the owners of an increase av- aging per cent was preceded by a request from the operatives for an advance of 10 per cent. The offer of the Lowell manufacturers has not been formally accepted by the Lowell textile council, which presented the demand. The employees claim that the 5 per cent offer was surrounded with conditions too vague to be under- stood.

COMPANY CLAIMS GAINS.
Some of Striking Trolleymen Ask for
 Old Jobs at New Bedford.

New Bedford, Mass, July 30.-The second week of the strike of electric car employees opened to-day with no prospects of settlement in sight.

The company planned to run the cars on all lines on sched- ule time to-day as on yesterday.
 Although the company is maintain ing a full service, the cars are not so well patronized as under normal con- ditions. partly because of the fear that rioting might break out and partly because many of the labor or ganizations have boycotted the com pany.

Freight Business Quiet.

The freight depot at the Great
Northern of this city as we'll as at
every other place on the system is ex-
periencing their quietest season of the
year. Between January 1 and March
the trade is extremely dull, and the
foremen find 1t necessary to discharge
about two-thirds of the number of
men at this season of the year. The
freight house in this city handles al
most as much merchandise and
freight as any other on the Great
Northern system and it is found neces-

to handle the business. Foreman Jim
