In Death Of Daniel Cardell Of
Warren
BELIEVE 1T WAS APOPLEXY
Autopsy Performed On Body Of Man Who
Died Suddenly Monday--organs
Taken to State Laboratory
at Burlington.

States Attorney Gates and Sheriff
Tracey returned to Montpelier last night
from Warren, where they were summon.
ed 10 examine into the death Of Daniel
eardeil, who died suddenly and sotse-
what mystefionsly Monday. An autopsy
was performed yesterday afternoon, and
the PHYSICIANS expressed the opinion that
death was due to apopIexy rather than
poisoning as had ben intimated at first.
Dr p. II. stone and Dir. H. II. White az
Burlington went to Warren at the same
time and performed ain autopsy, remov.
lag the stomach, heart, liver ard other
organs and taking them To the state
Laboratory for examination. A fact that
their belief that death was
due 10 apoplexy was the squirting of
blood from the head when the skull
was opened. The man was not III a very
good physical condition apparently.
On Monday morning he arose, did the
chores, had breakfast and then sat down.
He began to complain about Ills head,
saying @0h, how my head aches,n and
repeating it again and again. lie then
vomited and after reeling about the
room for d time he fell dead.
The neighbors started the story that
they had never heard him previously
complain Of i'll health and they thought
that his sudden, death was remarkable.
Hence poisoning was suspected. As a
matter Of fact, it Ii said that CardelI
had not been well for some time and
that he had frequently complained Of
feeling ILL., He was married recently, it
being the third venture Of tile wonlen.
Cardell was 40 years of age.
The states attorney and sheriff had
TO jump freight train to get back to
Montpelier last night, and they were
accompanied by the two Burlington doe
tors who jumped another freight at

Manufacturers Believe Week
Iy Law Cannot AbrOgate
The PRESENT AGREEMENT
Law Requires Corporations to Pay Their
Employees Weekly, But Agreement
Says They Shall Pay BIZ
Monthly.

Pursuant 10 call, committees from
the granite manufacturers association,
The granite cutters, the polishers, the
tool sharpeners and allied unions met
at the rooms Of the manufacturers as
sociatiou last night and discussed the
recently enacted law respecting the pay
nent of wages by corporations weekly.
The situation " rather peculiar because
tlle present agreement between the
manufacturers and the union states
that wages shall be paid hi-monthly BIZ
all manufacturers, whether incorporated
oi not Now there are about dozen
firms in this city and id Montpelier
that are corporations and corporations
are commanded by the law To pay their
employees weekly
The corporations are confronted with
the problem Of following the law and
paying weekly or holding to the gen.
prai agreement which expires next
March and continue TO pay twice d
month. AT the conference last night
the manufacturers who were represent
ed by committee Of FIVE explained
their position They stated that they
believed the law enacted bv the legis-
latime Of 1906 requiring corporations to
pay their workmen weekly could not
abrogaje the agreement entered into
between the manufacturers and their
employees and which does not expire for
ten months.
The section Of the law which refers
particularly to this point is as follows:
"All mining, quarrynig, mannfactur-
ing mercantile, telegraph, telephone,
railroad or other transportation cor
poration and an incorporated express,
water, electric light or power company
doing and transacting business within
the state shall pay each week, in law
ful money, each employe engaged IN the
business the wages earned by such EN-
pioye to a day not more than six days
prior to the date Of such payment
provided that If at any time Of pay
ment an emplove is absent from his
regular place Of labor, he shall be en-
titled to such payment on demand.
1t il the desire to come to some ami.
cable understanding before June shall
have arrived. The manufacturers ara
firmly Of the opinion, and II Il said that
they have high legal authority on the
matter, that the law cannot wipe out
the agreement now in force IN
this city. Complications would arise il

the manufacturers association. were "a

Walter Carroll Disappeared
From School Monday
SAID HE WASOUTFOR WALK
Wesleyan Academy at WiIbraham, Mass
Closed To-day and Pupils and In
structors Are Joining in the
Hunt for Him.

Wilbraham. Mass, May 22 Wesleyan
academy was closed to-day and the whole
force Of pupils and instructors are scour-
ing WiIbrahan mountain for Walter
Carroll, the 17-year old freshman, who
has not been seen OF heard from since he
went for walk Monday afternoon. He
was subject to fits Of vertigo and II il
feared that he has been seized while
rambling in the woods and now lies help
less or dead.
The days search yesterday was en-
liyened by two features, false report
that the body of Corrol had been found
in secluded place in the mountain, and
the proffering Of advice by 4 Monson
clairvoyant, who called Wesleyan acad-
emy BY telephone and insisted that the
body of Carroll would be found within
Il half mile radius ON a specified place
in the ledge The country indicated by
the clairvoyant was thoroughly secured,
not because the searchers had any special
confidence in the clairvoyant's theory,
but largely because the members of the
party being without clews, were as ready
to search one part Of the town as an
other.
CAROLS father tclephoned from Rowe
yesterday morning that his son was sub
feet to its Of vertigo when alone, and the
theory il gaining ground that Carroll
fell from the precipitous ledge under
the influence of such an attack. Car
rolls father said that his son had never
complained Of being honesieil He was
of such good habits that lie had not the
slightest idea that he had left the town.
Young Carroll has a grandfather liv.
ing in Palmer, and telephone message
to that town elected the information
that the missing student had not been
seen in Palmer He has sister in
Madison, N, j., and one in Syracuse, n.
", both of whom have been notified by
