 Policeman ROBBERS HAD A TEAM Discovered in a Drug Store Cellar They Drove Off Firing as
 They Went.

New York, Oct 23.-A duel with revolvers between two police rounds men on foot and a fleeing burglar in wagon ended in Brooklyn to-day

As they whip ped up their horse the roundsmen reached the sidewalk and opened fire on them. With the roundsmen in hot pursuit down the street a run ming battle took place, the burglars from their wagon returning the fire of the policemen. The police shots went wild, but at the first reply of the burglars McGarry was wounded in the face. A second bullet pierced his arm and third brought him down with a wound in the head from which he is not expected to recover.

UNDER WHICH HEADi
K. of c. Men Are Divided About
 Work of Consolidation.

The article in the Democrat yester- day regarding the proposition to bring all the local councils of the K. of c. under one head and one name has aroused considerable discussion, some favoring it and others taking the ground that 1t would be a serious mistake. A great many. claim that one serious objection to the plan would be that all past grands would be strippeds of the honor that goes with the office for It appears that when n council disbands this knocks out all the past grands that ever were connected with the organization, rec ognizing no past grand only those who can point to existing councils as the source of their authority. But aside from this much has been said in favor of consolidation. even such old warriors as F J. Finn of Sheri- dan council, believing that the scheme would pay and having a notion that the best way out of the snarl about a name would be to hold onto Barce- Iona. In this Mir Finn is supported by some of the most prominent knights in Waterbury. many of who claim that they believe that the knights would have come under one head long ago. were 1t not for the silly conflict over which name should be retained. They claim that 1t would do away with all bad feeling about Sheridan. Mulcahy and Hendricken in case all of them should he dropped and all rally under the standard of Barcelona.

APPEAL TO C0MPERS
Chicago Manufactures Ask That Union Be Made to Cease Their Internal
 Bickerings
LOCKOUT MAY FOLLOW

Chicago, Oct 23.-President Sam uel Gompers of the American Feder- ation of Labor was asked yesterday by leading Chicago manufacturers to compel local unions to cease fight ing among themselves. If this fight ing was not stopped. he was told, the "open shop" would be established in the large woodworking factories of the city.
 The case was put plainly to MT Gompers. He was informed that either the unions must abide by their written contracts and conduct themselves peaceably or else a great lockout which may involve as many as 6,000 or 1000 skilled factory workers will follow.
 After receiving the complaints of employers MT Gompers admitted that they were in the right and declared inter-union strife must stop at once.
 The labor leader felt for Lafayette, Ind, where he promised to confer with President William D. Huber of the International Brotherhood of Carpenters, one of the organizations involved in the controversy.
 The committee of manufacturers which waited upon President Com pers consisted of President B. E. Bensinger of the Brunswick, Blake Collender company, Oscar Bauer, of the Liquid Carbonic company, and J. H. Handley of A. H. Revel & Co. All are members of the Woodworking Manufacturers associantion, which comprises practically all the large factories in Inicago.

COL0RED MEN ORGANIZE
Will Ask Members in Congress to Advocate Enforcement of Amend-
 ments to Constitution
WILL MAKE VOTES COUNT

New Haven, Oct 23.-An organiza- ton named the Constitutional League of Connecticut which has been form ed by representative colored men of the state, and of which Dr A. Clayton Powell of Nv Haven and Preston M. Edwards of Hartford is secretary has sent to the members of the state delegation in congress a letter asking mem to support the enforcement of the fourteenth and fifteenth amend ments to the constitution. The ob- ject of the league is to secure support i'll more general agitation for the enforcement of the amendments in question. The letter says in part: Every passing year confirms the fact that the result of the 'doctored' southern constitution is the esablish- men in that part of this land of a condition of quasi-slavgy.
 Southern white men who make and administer the laws will feel re- sponsibility only to those whose votes elect them to office. The black men of the south can have no adequate security in life, liberty or property until they are able to protect these things with their ballots
 We cOlored men of Connecticut, together with other colored men of the north, are going to make orr votes as influential as possible in the matter of reinfranchising the black men of the south, whose votes are un- justly withheld from them. We think potent influence in this direc- tion lies in the reduction of south ern representation in congress, us provided for under the constitution"
 The letter calls the attention of each congressman to the fact, judged by record of the last session that he did not take part in the debate upon the question, and each is asked to state his attitude.

ON TRIAL FOR MURDER.
Middletown Man Who Fled to TOrOn'
 to and Was Brought Back.

Middletown, Oct 23.-That there is great interest in the trial of Henry G. Bailey for the murder of George H. Goodale, which opened in the su- perior court here to-day, was evident by the crowd in the court room, one of the biggest attendances in several terms being on hand. Judge George w. Wheeler and jury will hear the case. Bailey showed to-day the first signs of nervousness since his arrest. this show of uneasiness being noted as he was driven from the jail to the court house.
 The selection of the jury was a tedious task and took up the entire day. A panel of eighty-two men had been summoned.
 It Is understood that counsel for Bailey will endeavor to show that the prisoner is a degenerate and that if he did kill Goodale, he was not re- sponsible.
 Goodale was a fish peddler and was found dead in his home on July 9. Bailey was seen about the house a few days previous to the discovery of the body of Goodale and suspicion pointed to him immediately. A search of several days eliminated in the finding of Bailey in Toronto.

CUTTING SHADE TREES
A Lineman Working For the Western Union Co Was Hauled Up at
 Greenwich
WAS FINED s2s AND COSTS

Greenwich, Oct B The first pros ecution under the new law for wilful injury to and reckless cutting down of shade trees on public high way is believed to be that made in the Greenwich borough court to-dny with the foreman of gang of line men working for the Western Union Telegraph company as the defendant and the tree warden as the plaintiff. In the past the tree warden m a town has been an officer with little to do. The increase in interest in forestry, and the agitation to preserve shade trees, resulted in the enact ment of 3 law giving the warden con- siderable power to prosecute mutlia- tors of trees. Tn the case tried to- day the defendant was Jeremiah callahan and he was arrested by Tree Warden c. T. Hotaling and consta- ble. The linemen were strinaing wires from New York city to Bed ford, N. Y., and the line went over ! part of Connecticut known as Peek's land in the northerly part of the town. According to the testimony of Oscar Peck, Mrs Livingston, and Thomas Brennan. who live on the highway, the linemen cut swath along the roadside for half mile lop- ping off branches and cutting down trees which were in the way with lit tie regard for the appearance of the trees or without asking permission of the owners of the property. There was also some cutting of trees in front of the I. N. Phelps Stokes es-. tate Tree Warden Hotaling claimed that the men did not even take the trouble to gather up the debris. Cal lahan was not represented by. conn., sel and the only witness for the de- fense was r. l.. Hayes of New York, the right of way man for the Western Union company, and he testified that the damage to the trees was not great, in fact only insignificant.
 Justice Burns, who sat upon the case, said that the law permitted q fine of $50 for each tree wilfully mu- tilated In this case the offense was aggravated as the linemen did not ask permission to cut the trees, but as it was the first offense he would only impose, fine of s25 and costs.
 Tree Warden Hotaling later said that it was his intention to stop the destruction of trees which has been going on of late by telegraph and tele- phone linelpen.
