STRIKE IN 2 WEEKS Frank Rowland, Secretary for Local Photographers,
 Looks for Trouble. FIVE MEN AFFECTED. Others May Join Them When
 They Leave the
 Offices.
FIVE MEN AFFECTED.

1 The five local members of the Com mercial Photographers Union are await ing summons for strike and when it comes there are at least two non union men who will go out with them. The demands of the telegraphers are for an eight hour day, a ten per cent lincrease in wages which the Western Union promised, but which the men never realized, and the reinstatement of union telegraphers who were dis charged without any reason being given
 Frank Rowland, the secretary of the local Commercial Photographers Union, stated last night that he thought Presi- dent Small of the national organization would order the strike within two weeks. Mir. Rowland gave another statement which follows,
 In my belief there will be no strike ordered until President Small sanctions the same, in whose power 1t is to order one, at the present time. MT Small will | order this strike when the commercial companies least expect it. As believe it will not be only the largest offices of | this country that will be affected, but | the smaller ones also. It is recognized by the public as we'll as the telegraph CTS, that if the Important offices" only I strike that the companies involved will or may be able to close their smaller offices and put their operators, who are incompetent, to fill the fast and most strenuous wires in the art of teleg- raphy. It will certainly be very poor service to the public in general The public does not realize what the telegraphers have had to put up with ] in the past few years. Why? Because the telegraphers have been trodden on since the strike of 1883 in way that would shame any human being that tries to build up an office, taking an in terest in his work and getting not even verbal thanks for his very strenuous work rendered the company.
 It has not been an extraordinary case that the chief operator would curse the operator for neglecting to endorse a sheet after calling an office from five to ten minutes, not because the opera i tor was negligent, but because he was moving from one way wire to the other
 It has always been the case in the large offices that. man is held from seven to eight hours until he gets a re- lief for lunch, and even then has to re fuse to work any longer, walking out of the office to get, the support which would keep him over until his regular time" was worked.
 It seems to me at the present time, if the companies continue in the un thoughtful use of the telegraphers at large, that the telephone companies will improve their business fifty per cent. more than they have already, thus diminishing the service and the stabili- ty of the Commercial Telegraph com ipanies of this country,

CASE OF SUICIDE.
sturgis Comn's Death at New Canaan
 Due to Shooting.


 Due to Shooting.
 New Canaan, June 19.-The sudden death of sturgis Coffin, business man of New York. but who was one of the alI-year residents here, on Friday last, is attributed to a gunshot wound, self inflicted MT. Coffin is said to have been suffering from melancholia. due in part to the death, last summer, of his daughter, Mrs. Johnston DeForest, and to financial matters. He had a splendid residence at Smiths Ridge, about two miles from the village cen- ter. The funeral occurred on Monday afternoon and interment was in Green wood cemetery, Brooklyn. @
 On last Thursday MT. Coffin made a trip to New York, and on his return, 1t is said, he jokingly referred to his in tention of killing himself. Nothing was thought of his remark.
 MT. Coffin came to this place two years ago by reason of the delicate health of his daughter. He was sixty two years old.

 The delay in getting the conference under way created the suspicion that the leaders are deliberately delaying the preliminaries in the belief that by the great powers more time. now that they understand each other, the work will be facilitated later

tenn for the session. Another struggle over the introduction or evidence de- veloped over Attorney RusselRs offer ing a typewriter copy of the minutes of the meeting. Judge Robinson de- cided to allow it's introduction.
 The remainder of the session was taken up principally with testimony as to the exact details of the meeting of Jan 10 Mir. Molloy testified to reading the roll at the opening of the meeting and stated that when he first read the roll McKerness was not in the room but after he had finished he saw him in the next room coming in and called his name. McKernness, he stated, looked pleasant" but did not answer to his name. He testified that motion to adjourn was made but he could not say that he had heard it put.
 Alderman Mulvey followed, He stated that there were two roll calls, one at the beginning of the meeting, the other on the motion to adjourn. He also tes- tif1ed that the motion to adjourn was just voted on by roll call and carried at exactly at SOS. He was very def- nite in his statements. Attorney Dag gett and Mulvey had quite tilt over the question and answers. Mulvey testified that four minutes elapsed be- tween the entry of McKerness and Isoos on the night of the meeting.
 Deputy Sheriff Hut testified as a. spectator at the meeting. He stated that the motion to adjourn was put and that he saw Alderman McKerness enter the chamber of the board.
 Alderman Healy put on second time, was asked who else besides the aldermen were present at the meeting. He stated by mentioning Attorney Reynolds, one of the counsel for the plaintiffs, Attorney Daggett asked MT. Healy if 1t was not true that the whole meeting had been planned out before hand. He admitted it was so.
 Alderman McKerness was the last witness. His chief testimony was to the gathering of the republicans down stairs in City hall during the demo- cratic session. He admitted on ques- tions by Attorney Russell that they had talked over the time of their go- ing up stairs together.
 The case will be finished this morn- ing,

INSTITUTE FOR BLIND. Miss Ida Adams Working for State School of
 Hartford. HOPE FOR STATE GRANT Subscriptions First Required About SIS, ,OOO
 Raised.
HOPE FOR STATE GRANT

The Connecticut Institute for the Blind has sent to New Haven to work toward raising funds for improving and enlarglng that institution Miss Ida M Adams formerly of New Haven, now studying in the Hartford School of Religious Pedagogy. Miss Adams work in New Haven, however, is wholly in the interest of the Institute for the Blind. Several years ago Miss Adams was active in religious work here and in 1900 was a delegate to the International Christian Endeavor Con- vention which met in London. On Tuesday evening at Dwight Place church she will make statement of the aims of the institute in the present effort to raise funds and explain the work now being carried on there. No subscriptions are to be sought at this meeting. Miss Adams is relying on personal contributions and will devote the whole of next month to New Ha- ven and vicinity. Contributions are be- ing sought from all parts of the state by other representatives.
 While the Hartford institution is a state institution, MISS Adams explained last night, the state does not by any means wholly sustain the work. For each child In the school the state makes grant but the work of teaching the blind children of the state and school ing the blind adults in different trades requires greater expenditures which must be met by contributions from in dividuals. Connecticut was the first state to make any provision for sys- tematie instruction of the blind chill dren of schoolage and the first to have a nursery. in connection.
 At present the training for the blind at Hartford is carried on by the ln- stitute proper and the Farmlngton nursery. In these two schools are forty nine children at present. In the trades

 In order to prevent friction at the outset the question of the limitation of armaments was ignored temporarily, though there is a well defined plan to bring it up at the first favorable op- portunity in the form of a proposition to reiterate the resolution adopted by the latest conference. recommending that the governments again study the subject and postpone it's consideration until the next conference.

Shall We Celebrate?

That is the question heard
quite frequently in connection
with the 4th of July and it seems
to be the concensus of opinion
that it should be done in Broken
Bow this year, If we are to
observe the National day in an
appropriate manner it is n one to
early to hold a public meeting,
committees and start
the ball rolling so it will be a
hummer aud not a half-hearted,
weak affair such as celebrations
usually are when decision to
celebrate is reached only a two
or three weeks before the glorious
day.
Broken Bow should be patriotic
enough to observe the day IA,
least every other year and this
year is the other one by two
years,
