cause of the reduction in wages made
the first of the year, ranging from
per cent to 12h per cent.
The strike was a complete surprise,
though two of the men had already
served notice May is. The four
spinners working through last night,
met the force of five that were to have
begun at o'clock this morning and
together they marched into Kay's Of
flee and demanded a return to the old
scale under which six of the nine re-
ceived 81 a day instead of $1.75 as at
present, and the other three made $50
per month instead of $40 as they do
now
Kay has sent his foreman to Ore
gon City to secure spinners, but is un-

Not Die Easily.

La Porte, May 11.-Evidence came
to light today indicating that the body
OF Andrew Helgaline, one of Mrs.

a victim to his death blow until af-
ter he had made a desperate fight for
his life.
DIR. j. H. Meyer who made an ex-

 Street Writes of Voyage.

William McGowan of High street is in receipt of Il letter from his son Charles A. McGowan, who is on board the Illinois in the great naval trip of Uncle Sam's war ships which is causing such stir all around the world. Mir McGowan also favors his father with a number of postal cards from various. countries which are quite curiosity to people who have not seen much of other countries. The letter was written when the fleet was nearing the Straits of Magellan and contains description of the course to he followed in passing through them. Mir McGowan speaks very highly of the treatment accorded to the men and feels that with Waterbury man, Admiral Sperry, in command on the homeward trip, himself and all the other Waterbury boys will have reason to feel proud of the city of their birth. MT MeGowan also speaks of the Waterbury papers and the pleasure it is to him and others to receive them, so that no matter how fast the war ships glide over the seas the Waterbury papers manage to get ahead of them at the different stop ping places.

WILL RETAIN DR CLARKE.
Gilbert School at Winsted Had Cor
 porators Meeting Yesterday.

Winsted, March 24.-The spirited controversy over the affairs of the Gilbert school was practically settled at the meeting of the corporators and trustees yesterday afternoon, that is so far as the 'principalship is concerned. The only information given out was to the effect that a resolution was unanimously adopted to the effect that the retention of the principal. Dr J. E. Clarke. and the hiring of teachers be left to the com mittee. As the school committee is known to be enthusiastically in favor of the administration of Dr Clarke there is no doubt of his retention. Dr Clarke has been at the head of the school since its establishment thir- teen years ago and his popularity Is unlimited. IL is probable. however. that there will be a shakeup among the other instructors as a result of the controversy.

CHEN YEN GONE
White Woman Who Called Her
 self His Wife Also Missing

Chen Yen the Celestial who was be- fore the city court a few weeks ago charged with keeping disreputable house in the building east of the Brass City hose Go house on East Main street, has fled the town with the white woman who called herself his wife, and there is much specula- tion in the. east side as to when the laundry will disgorge its contents. Those who had business relations with Yen are pleased that he did not take with him their linen he had be- longing to them. Attorney Joseph H. Reid represents most of Yen's clients and the attorney has set in motion summary process and a notice to quit and several other fea- lures of the law in order to get an execution which will be the means of opening the doors of the laundry. This he expects to be able to do on Monday, and all who hold Yen's "washee checkee" will be given the goods it calls for. Attorney Reid will read the checks.
