 lieye With Stuyvesant Fish.

 Manufacturing Go,

Manufacturing Go.
 Boston, Jan 3.--Following a series of attempts to burn its plant, Nos 253 and 255 A street, South Boston, the Bolyston Manufacturing Co, makers of shoe machinery. has placed patrol of armed guards in the factory. both day and night. The officials of the company. of which William A. Copeland Is president, de- clare belief that determined at tempts are being made to destroy the factory and ruin the business. Sev- eral fires in the plant, plainly of in- cendiary origin. have been discovered and an unexplained turning on of gas jets in the experimental depart ment of the plant has occurred. Not long ago Manager George H. Nobbs was attacked by unknown men as he was leaving the factory at night. Private detectives. it is alleged, failed to find any clues, and the patrol plan was devised.
 The Boylston Manufacturing Co employs 300 hands. Two modern six story brick structures make up the plant. which is located not. far from the south station.

Gnesen, Province of Posen, Prus- sia, Jan 3.-The Prussian govern 'ment, in consequence of the disturbed state of the public mind in Prussian Poland over the school strike and the renewal of the Polish nationalist agi- tation,continues to prosecute severely any infraction of the political ordi- nances.

EDUCATING ENGINEERS.
Surprise Tests Made During the Past
 Year.


 Chicago, Jan 3.-The management |of the Chicago & Northwestern rail- road has just completed a remark |able demonstrated showing what can be accomplished in the way of edu- eating enginemen to obey block sig nals. During the year 1906 the com- pany made series of surprise tests" numbering 1925, and the record shows there was not single failure to obey the signals and to ob- serve the rules governing block sig mailing.
 Surprise tests" are made without previous knowledge of the engine crews and consist of every conceiv- able question which may arise in con nection with block signals and their observance.
 The management of the Northwes- tern began making thes tests several years ago and found that in certain percentage of cases the signals were not observed. As the result of se- ries of early tests ten engineers were discharged from the service and oth- CTS we're severely dealth with for failure to obey signals.
 In each case the men were told they had done all in their power to contribute to an accident, and 1t was no fault of theirs that an accident had not occurred. It was given out plainly by the management that fail ure to obey signals meant dismissal. The result of the campaign on the Northwestern shows, according to the officials, that engine crews can be disciplined to the point where fail- ure to obey signals will practically never occur.

ICE CUTTING STOPPED.
That Cut From Bras Mill Pond Only
 Nine Inches Thick.

Charles B. Everitt, secretary and treasurer of the Waterbury Ice cor poration. said to-day that although the weather of the past week has not been very good for the icemen still a large amount of ice was harvested the latter part of last wek.

The ice cut last week at the Brass Mill pond in the eastern section of the city was about nine inches thick. MT Everitt thinks there'll De plenty of ice this winter and says 1t should be much less expensive next summer than 1t was last.

A. P. HAYEs's CHANGES.
Backed for Judiciary Committee by
 Leading Members of Party.


 Notwithstanding the great scrau1- ble for committee appointments Mir Tilson has not yet definitely fixed one. Except in one case he declined to be specific even as to applications for those positions That was the case of Representative Abner Hayes of Waterbury. He said that Mir Hayes had applied for appointment on the Judiciary committee and that his application was backed by lead ing members of the party in New Ha- ven county. If it should be decided that Mir Banks is not eligible for the house chairman of the judiciary. it is quite within the bounds of probabil- ity that Mir Hayes may be selected for the place. His education and political training fit him for the posi- ti0n, it Is pointed out.
