WENT TO GET RENT
But Tenant Met Patrinell at the Door
 With an Axe.

Charles Patrinelli went out last eve- ming to visit his tenant, Antonio Pas cale, of 1O6 Liberty street, for the pur- pose of collecting his rent for said tenement. He nearly succeeded in losing his own head When Pascale came to greet him he was accompa- nied by an axe, which he brandished so valiantly that Patrinelli forgot that he wanted rent and sought the police instead. He got Officers Cassidy and Molloy, of the Howard avenue station, who went over to the house and after a struggle succeeded in getting Pas cale, warlike as he was, to the lookup, Patrinelli was uninjured in the en- counter.

GREENWICH HOUSE ROBBED
Wealthy Resident Finds Home Ram
 sacked on Return from Vacation.

Greenwich, Sept. 5.-It became known to-day that when B. J. schol- ermann, wealthy resident of this place, and justice of the peace, re- turned last Tuesday from a summers stay at Lake Waramaug, he found that his home had been entered and ransacked, and that silverware, jew elry and sealskin garments had been taken, and that other of his property had been gathered together as if the burglars had intended return trip for the removal of the goods. With Sheriff Rltch and one other man MT. Scholermann remained on guard all that night, but no burglar appeared. It is supposed the burglary may have been the work of some one in town, who possibly had planned to take away the rest of the property before the owners return. The value of the stolen property is placed by MT. Sehol- ermann at about $1,000.

ORANGE CHARTER IS TURNED DOWN Referendum Clause Pro- vided by Legislature De- feats Plans for
 City. DIFFERENCE IS
 ONLY 35 VOTES Both West Haven and the Farming Section Car ried by the 0p-
 position.

The freemen of the Town of Orange went to the polling places ri the two districts yesterday and defeated the city charter granted by the last legis- lature subject to a referendum vote, by thirty-fve ballots. The opposition to the charter won out in both the first district, West Haven, and in the sec ond, the farming section of the north of Orange. The official figures in the borough of West Haven were 4S1 to 424, @ difference of seven against the charter and in the second district by the figures 64 to 36.
 The result was a general surprise to the people of West Haven, many of whom thought that there was not the least doubt about the charter going through. Henry A. L, Hall, who has been one of the prime movers for the charter said last night that the people of West Haven, were so sure of suc- cess that many of them did not go to the polls. He said that the meetings to protest against the charter had proven so overwhelmingly In favor of | llS ClldFlcr DSlOT6 they IlnlSneQ LTlGI the success of the movement for city was foregone conclusion.
 The outcome, said MT. Hall last night, lis a great disappointment to me and to the other citizens who hoped by 1t to put Orange on a firm | financial foundation. think that the rainy weather had much to do with the defeat of the charter. Many West Haven people who are employed in Winchester's factory went up to work early this morning with the intention of coming down at noon to vote. Al noon the weather was very disagree able and thinking that the charter would go through any way they stayed in the city. Then the people oi Allingtown are to blame. They are paying an eight mill tax and getting every sort of an improvement. They did not want city and they went and voted. We have $45,000 indebtedness and under the new charter could have reduced 1t year by year. Now ] suppose that g movement will be

Especial to Journal and Courier.)
 Hartford, Sept 5The story of the long drawn out fight between the lob by of the liquor dealers and the lobby of the temperance people Is one of the most interesting chapters of the entire session of the recent General Assem- bly,. It has not been told and few out side of those who actively took part in the manouvers have the least idea how the liquor men were whipped and their organization routed
 Fight in the Open.
 Unlike the legislative work of agents for the corporations, and more espec- ially those of the railroad interests, the excise fights were mostly in the open. F6r the first time in the history lof excise legislation the temperance people had a lobby in Hartford when had It's eye teeth cut by experience and which took no mans word until by his works it had been proven good and true. Tale temperance lobby was l fair and square in its activities, and neither did the liquor men attempt to hide the identity of most of its agents. So on the principle of the thing if the lobby of liquor men to influence leg islation was wrong the activities of the temperance men were equally wrong. even if thedr cause might have been considered to be meritorious.
 Headed by Brewery President
 To the facts The liquor mems lob l by was headed by the president of brewery who acted throughout as tho chairman of the dealers of the state, assisted, 1t was understood deyal- opments confirmed in a measure the Ireport--by two members of the senate and two members of the House, and very late in the session several mem bers of the railroad lobby and one man who holds a state of1oe--or sixteen members in all. Of tha last mention ed individual the entirescourse of lob4 by work in the Capitol invariably led back to his office.
 Financing Liquor Campaign.
 The liquor dealers campaign for mo excise Legislation" was financed, it Is understood, by the levy in April of @ tax of ten cents per keg on beer sold during 1907, which on the basis of rev. enue stamps would net $Sa COG The money it was understood was to be handled by certain lobbyist who draws salary as state officer.
 Temperance Peoples Fund.
 The temperance people financed their campaign by collections from churches, and the prayers of the members of their congregations. The funny part of the whole thing to the temperance people is that the money was spent, the liquor dealers were more or less buncoed, and, to cap the climax, at the recent state convention of the Liquor Dealers association a private detective sat in that body with a members credentials and made a complete report of the proceedings. which report is now said to have been sent to the state capitol and has been

Lonsshoremep's Strike In New York
Far From Settlement.

New York. May 1.-THE long
shoremens strike 80 far as It con-
Germs the trans Atlantic lines, gives
promise Of lasting some time, and
being a fight TO a finish.
The strike against the coastwlse
lines Is settled. The settlement was
q partial victory for the men, for It's
basis was q compromise. But the
deep water steamer companies take
the ground more dstermlnedly than
ever that the strikers demands are
utterly unreasonable and that there
oan be no settlement 20 long as the
men persist in them.
Evidence Of the present temper OF
these arrangements Is found In an in
terview given by Bmil Boas, agent Of
the Hamburg American line,Rnd In 4

into the second story Of the American
line she'd for the accommodation OF
the strike breakers.
Mr.. Boas was quoted as saying OF
the situation with regard to his com
pany
THE action OF the strikers has been
outrageous. They walked out with
out saying word although some OF
them were making from S25 to $50 a
week by working overtime, and we
think they were being well paid for
the character OF work that they were
doing"
In reply Patrick Connors, OF the
Loneshoremen's union in Manhattan,
said:
ut Is not true that we struck with
out making any demands. Before we
struck a. circular with demands was
in the hands OF every pier superinten-
dent and we struck because the de-
mRnds were refused. At the wages

Rehesrssls Now Being Held for One
Of the Worlds Greatest Productions.
Apropos the Wiegand's Festival
Mass, now under rehearsal at Holy
Trinity church, it may be of interest
to those participating to know that
Mr.. Petrie of this city was well ac-
quainted with the composer in Sydney,
Australia.
Mr.. Petrie states that Wiegand cap
tured the organist's prize, a 5000
pounds annual salary, for which many
noted organists competed - among
them the organist of the great Salt
Lake City Temple.
Wiegand has the proud distinction
of having in his organ the only sixty.
four-foot pedal stop in existence.
When one thinks of the volume Of
air required TO produce musical note
through a wooden chute sixty-four
feet high by four feet square. 1t
seems almost impossible As mat
ter of fact, before this organ was
built such an enormous pipe was con.
sidered absolutely impractical and
useless.
Wiegands ecclesiastical music ranks
very high, and it is to be hoped that
a chorus OF sufficient size may be
gotten together in our city to do Jus
tice to the work now under rehearsal.
The ambition exhibited by our young
people in undertaking TO produce this
work is certainly worthy Of common.
