MlLKMEN MET
Price of Milk Will Remain as at
 inc Present Time.

The Milkmen's association held g
 meeting Saturday night and talked over prices for the winter season
 Producers from Watertown and other places were represented and made an effort to push up the wholesale price so that retailers would be obliged to charge about ten cents quart. Hans Rausmussen and other Waterbury milkmen made a bitter fight against an advance and after a good deal of speechmaking our neighbors were routed horse and foot and as con- sequence the price of milk is very likely to remain where it is for the present. It ought to be lower, but the farmers don't think so and now that they got it going upward it will be hard to keep them from adding a cent or two from time to time until they get 1t so that they will be able to make more money out of one COW than they do now from the product of two.

ACCIDENTAL DEATH
Finding of Corner in ihe Cosenzo
 Fatality.

Gabrielle Santora and Saverio Min- grone who were held Saturday morn- ing for the murder of Givovanni Cosenze in their boarding house on Jackson street were released yester- day and the case against them nolled.
 It is the opinion of Deputy Coroner Makepeace that the death of Cosenze was due to accidental shooting by himself while cleaning his revolver early Saturday morning. And an- other feature that tends to show that the accused were not responsible for the mans death is that they did not ny the town as men of their kind us- ually do when they get into a scrape that cost some one his life.
 The deputy coroner found that the bullet after entering the body glanc- ed upward indicating to his mind that the man held the weapon slight ly vertical. The accused men said that Cosenzo was cleaning the wea- pon and snapping the hammer while doing so and told them it was not loaded.
 The accused told him to be careful and just then the weapon exploded and Cosenzo was dead in minute. The accused not knowing what to do remained in the house until the. oth- CT boarders were up, and then in- formed the landlord of the accident. Under these circumstances the de- putty coroner considered he was justI- fled in coming to the conclusion that the death was accidental.

DEATHS AND FUNERALS.
Well Known People Who Have Been
 Called Away.

The funeral of John O'Donnell was held this morning from his late home on South Willow street to the Immaculate Conception church, where mass of requiem was cele- hrated by Father Frederick. The bearers were w. c. Kleinecke, J. A. Duggan, J. L. Saxe, James Hurl- burt, Michael Pendy and James Murphy, the four first mentioned rep resenting Court Falcon, F. of A. The floral tributes included a standing cross from Charles E. Egan>& Son, pillow, Court Falcon; heart of roses, M. Dillon. The remains were taken to Holyoke for burial in charge of J. H. Mulville.
 Mrs Mary Davis, wife of Enoch Davis, died suddenly yesterday at her home on Chapel street, Waterville. She was siXty-three years of age and with her husband, had planned to leave for their former home in Car maven, South Wales, in week or so. The couple called at the office of the board of charities Friday and talked about their circumstances. They had
  collected enough to pay one passage, but as one didn't want to go without the other and they didn't see how they could raise any more by subscription, it was finally decided, as last re- sort, to ask the city to help out. The superintendent promised to bring the matter to the attenion of the board and both went their way satisfied that favorable action would be taken on the proposition, for it would be much easier to do this than run the risk of having to maintain them for the balance of their lives. They have children in the old country and would be all right if they could get back. They came here two years ago, too late in life to make their mark in the new world. The funeral of Mrs Da- wis will be held tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. .f..... ..

WILL FORM TONIGHT
Classes at Catholic Women's As. sociaiiOn al St Patrick's Hall.

Tonight the first regular meeting of the season of the Catholic Wo- mems association will be held in St Patrick's hall. This is when the classes will be formed and those who desire to join should be present. A group of ten members, all friends who desired to be in one class togeth- CT have handed in their names to take advantage of the privilege of be- ing allowed to choose the special night they want for their class. Wherever groups of friends wish to join the same class they should hand in their names together and every they that can be will be done to meet their wishes. However, the names should be handed in this evening in order to do this
 The new president, Mrs Cornelius Maloney, will preside at to-night's meeting, and the superintendent, Mrs c. P. Hayes, will be present to receive strangers. It is especially de- sired that former members of the as sociation, who have been unable to attend the association of late, will re-join this year and again take an active part. To re-join merely means to pay the dues for the ensuing year.
 The classes are grammar and arith- metic, the instruction being accord ing to the needs of each pupil; short hand and typewriting which has been taught by the same teacher at the as- sociation for six years; art work, in which the classes have always excell- ed; dressmaking, which is under the direction of two skilled dressmakers; and millinery, which is one of the most popular classes with most grati-- flying results.

RAIN FOR FISHERMEN,
Postponed the Sport and Spent the
 Day in Stratford,

A party of clock makers from the Clock shop, consisting of Charles Dud- ley, Frank Spellman, John Butler, Frank Borst, John FaiX and George Decker sailed from Derby on steam launch yesterday morning, intending to go to Port Jefferson, l.. I. to fish. So far as the condition of the water was concerned it was smooth sailing till they reached Derby and there it was found advisable to unload some of the ballast, and there was danger of swamping the launch. The water was quite choppy and there was a head wind that made slow and un- pleasant sailing, because of the spray flying from the whitecaps.
 The launch put back to Stratford and some of the party remained there. The others, more courageous, started off, but there was so much fog and wind and nasty choppy seas they were about half way over when they concluded it was the part of pru- dence to turn back. So back they turned and adjourned their fishing trip to 8 more suspicious day. The rest of the ballast served as a din ner and they passed the day iii Strat-

LOOKS ONIH0US FOR
GROWERS Of FRUIT
Cold Weather. After a Period of
Spring zephyrs, May Cause
Great Damage.

The sudden fall in the temperature
which has prevailed in this section Of
the country for the past forty.eight
hours, coming as it does after a spell of
beautiful spring weather may have a
serious effect upou the orchards.
The balmy weather of the past two
weeks has rushed forward the buds and
peach, apricot and other trees are in
full bloom 10 the Salt Lake, Ogden and
the valleys to the north and the south.
Friday night the outlook for the
fruit grower was omnious. a keen frosty
wind was blowing and AS the night ad
vanced it increased IN intensity. 1t will
be fortunate indeed if the fruit is not
seriously nipped in the bud and suffers
from the climatic conditions.
In seasons past the fruit grower has
suffered in this respect. After a week
or two of mild, beautiful weather,
bringing the fruit trees into full bloom,
serious setback has occurred by Just
such n change in the temperature as we
are now experiencing and considerable
loss has been the result, and it is 10 be
hoped that such will not be the case
in this season of prosperity.

DIFFERENCE Of OPINION
CONCERNING CONTRACT
Attitude Of Utah Fireproofng
Go, in Controversy Be
tween Board and Council.

There is a slight difference of opin-
ion as 10 the Utah Fireproohng com
pany S contract for cement sidewalks
in 1905 between the Board of Public
Works and the City Council. The board
sent recommendation to the Council
that the company be released from the
balance Of it's contract This was done
on the advice of Judge Hiles, City At
torney. as the company already had
done all it could be expected under its
contract.
The original contract called for
206,000 square feet Of sidewalk, and
with all the additions the city put on
the company really has completed under
it 100000 feet, or six times as much
as the original contract called for. The
company refuses to do any more, and
Judge Hiles held that no court would
compel 1t to do any more The City
Council apparently differed from the
board and the City Attorney, for it
sent the matter back to the board. The
Board of Public Works last evening
simply ordered the original recon-
mendation releasing the company to be
again returned 10 the Council

TAKING DOWN Of
WIRES AND POLES
Street Railway and Telephone
Companies Say City to Blame
for Their Presence.

1t is very much the fault Of the city
that some of the streets are not free
from wires and poles. Representatives
of the Utah Light and Railway com
pany and Of the Rocky Mountain Bell
Telephone company were before the
Board Of Public Works Friday evening
to discuss the matter of making ar
rapgements TO remove poles and wires
from Second South.
O. A. Honnold for the railway and
D. S. Murray for the telephone com
pany stated that there were seven or
eight miles Of streets upon which the
poles could have been removed months
ago If the city had looked after the
taking away of'its fire aud police alarm
wires. These streets would have been
clear of wires long ago but the COM
panies were waiting for the city They
stated that general plan of clearing
the streets of all poles had been
agreed upon but they could not see
what could be done just at present an
til the details had been worked out.
They were moving as fast in the mat
ter as they possibly could The mat
ter was left in abeyanoe for two
weeks as regards the companies and
the City Council will be asked to rec
ommend that the police and fire de
partment committeesN have their wires
and poles removed in the paved and
TO be paved districts.
The Postal Telegraph and the West
ern Union will be notified that they
must at once get their wires off the
poles on Second South.
