BOSS THINKERS ACT Will Bring Non Union Men Here From New York
 at Once.
 @--~----- MUCH WORK HELD UP Strikers Hope to Call Out All Affiliated Union
 Labor.
MUCH WORK HELD UP

The strike of the timers and metal workers of the city which, went into effect on Tuesday last took on new phase yesterday with the deciaive act- ion of the masters in deciding to bring the war into the enemy's country by importing new men from other cities to take the place of those on strike.
 One of the leading master plumbers of the city admitted last night that the strike has virtually tied their hands and he said that as they believe the mems demands exorbitant and as they have refused to consider the comprom- ise of $S.25 o:ered for their demand of a $3.50 wage, such action was practical ly forced upon them. The masters de- clare their determination to fill the places of the men out as soon as possi- ble and the first lot probably from 25 to 50 men is expected from New York city at once.
 The masters also declare that all overtures leading to compromise must come from the other side as they have made what they consider reasonable offer and that they cannot afford to yield to the mems demands of a $S.bO wage an eight hour day, and a limit ing of the number of apprentices.
 On the other hand the 15O journey men on strike are as firm in their de- termination to obtain complete con- cesson from the masters claiming that with the increase in the cost of living since the present scale of wages went into effect they cannot afford to accept anything less.
 It is said among the workmen that with the close utilization of other trades in the building industry with the strong organization of the timers and metal workers much may be accom- plished by them through the calling out of union men engaged upon construc- tion work of all kinds in the city. Just what the result of the masters action ! in bringing in non-union men cannot be said, but the men believe their position invinclble.

 Joseph w. Granniss, whc is the pres ent third selectman and who made a strong run against Walter IA. Main for first selectman and town agent in the last election, declined to have his name offered as a candidate for either of the place on the ticket. saying that his business keeps him away from the town so much that he cannot properly attend tc the duties connected with the office. Mir Granniss had been a selectman for several terms and his re- tlrelnenr from politics caused consid- erable surprise.
 Charles H. Stormont was chairman of last nights meeting and Henry C.. Thomas acted as clerk. When 1t be- came known that Mir. Granniss was not a candidate for the nomination for se- lectman, little disposition was shown on the part of anyone to run againset Mr Main. Finally Greene Kendrick was nominated by exclamation. For second selectman William A. Russell received the nomination, and for town clerk George H. Thomas, who was nominated by the republicans few nights ago, was named.
 The other officers nominated are: Treasurer, Alfred NJ Redwood; tax collector, Claude B. Davis; constables, George H. Reynolds, John Reynolds, John Nissen and William P Rourke; auditor, Charles H.

 No nominations were made last night for grand jurors. Before adjournment it was voted to empower the town committee to choose the candidates for the positions of grand jurors.

'CHATFIELD TALKS TO THIRD WARDERS Only Promise Made He States is to be Fair to Everyone if He is
 Elected. ULLMAN SPEAKS
 ON THE MACHINE Declares Leader Can Only Hold Position by Giving People What They
 Want.

Two republican rallies enlivened that party's share in the local city cam paign last evening and both were rouB- ing affairs. They mark the close of rather limited amount of campaign meetings of this sort on the part of the republicans and there will be no more vocal efforts from the public ros- trum on the part of their candidates, except the addresses which each will be called upon to make this evening al the ratification feast in the republican club banquet hall.
 Third warders assembled in Colonial hall last night to see and hear the candidates. Colonel Ullman and his brother, Police Comrnigstcner Louis M, Ullman. together with Mi- notte E Chatf1eld s. Fred Strong, Hd- ward A. Street. Fred Orr, Major Til- son, Barnett Berman Louis Coleman and Abraham Podoloff were among the occupants of the platform, and made the speeches of the evening. Colonel Ullman received a great ovation when he was called upon He said that 1t had been hoped that Governor Wood- ruff would be present at the meeting. but on account of slight indisposi-s tion he was unable to get out and so he had deputed him to urge the Third warders to support his friend, Mtnotte Chatfield, for mayor
 Colonel Ullman then took up the cry of machine which has been made in the campaign against the republican candidates. In part he sad:
 i've have to have a machine for ev- erything and the boss of machine remains so only while the people want him. A leader is man who discovers what the people want and gives it to them.
 "The defeated candidate for the dem- ocratic nomination expended 1,SOO odd dollars according to his statement filed to-day. This may be the will of the people. I do not know what the sue- cessful candidate spent. Some say he expended $S,oOO If that is so that is about one dollar for every vote that was cast at the primaries. Truly a free expression of the people.
 WpilI lO oCllOOI WILL MI, Alal ll1l. He is a fine man, but he had bad habit of promising"
 Candidate for mayor, Minotte ID. Chatfield, was also received with an ovation. His address was short one. In substance he said:
 "The only promise I have made and will make is to be fair to everyone. wish might crate and make a good speech to you, but you know that many business men while they may be able to present their business well cannot make good speeches at such an occasion as this. But the first essential is business. And it seems to me that the first essential for the mayors office is that it be conducted | in business-iilze manner.
 My first interest is in the health of the city, for I believe that with that we can look out for the other things but if we have not that we care little about the other matters. I am pleased to have on the ticket such good men as have been nominateds --------4------rs4-
