The game with Metropolis by the
Indians. which was composed of a
majority Of the players in the Elks'
lineup, was one of the fastest and
best Of the season. Dye, a pitcher
in the Three ! league, had the In
dams fooled by his slants and he won
handily Davis, a first baseman and
a south paw pitched creditable
game for the Warriors. but it was
the result of luck and snappy playing
that won out

the side was retired
Both pitchers were banged for

players stood in the back ground,
yelled for joy, and then ran for the
first train home.
The first game was between the
Paducah Elks, No. 217, and the May
field Elks, No. SOS. Paducah started
on with vim and in the first hair
pulling two runs were pulled over
while Mayfield shrieked with pain.
After this il was easy, and the goose
eggs were presented to Mayfield reg

good measure responsible for the
agony of Graves county. as but two
safties were hit out, and he had good
backing by his team mates. Sutton
had speed, control, and bewildering
curves that made the Mayfeld Elks
dizzy trying to hit them. Another

END NOT IN SIGHT
More Boilermakers Informed
That They Will Get the
Axe To- morrow.
NO WORK IN READvILLE
Local Men Apply I'm Valn-Great
Financial Gain to Road by
Discharges.

That the trouble between the New
Haven road and the machinists and
boilermakers has not come to sat
isfactory close, was the statement of
one Of the employees to the Journal
Courier last evening. According to
this authority, one OF the overseers
talked with number of the men a
few days ago and informed them that
on Friday they would terminate their
services with the company The rea-
son for this was said to be that the
road is to transfer all its heavy re-
pairing to the shops at Readville, and
practically close the shops hero. one
of the men asked II those thrown out
of work could find employment at
Readville, and received negative
answer. The overseer said that for
the present there we're plehty of en-
ployes at Readville and that there
might be cutting down even there.
The bolermakers say that 1t Is i'm
possible for the railroad to keep the
engines In good repair with the small
force of workmen that they have. In
this city there are less than ten left
and reports sent to the local union
from Readville say that the force has
not been increased there. In spite Of
denial issued by the road the men
claim that one day last week there
were six engines hauled up in the To-
cal yards unable to move.
According to the statement of the
prominent railroad man last night
there are about l75 locomotives here
now that are In some need of repair.
In many of them the repairs neces-
sary are Of a minor nature, out sever
al of them are absolutely broken
down. 1t will be necessary for the
Readville shops to send some men
down here to put them In order II they
ever are to run again.
1t Is claimed that the road has ta-
ken off a great many trains and that
for this reason the force of repair men
can be cut down accordingly. But
the number of engines cut out of the
service by the taking off of trains is
|
discharged could care for.
Incidently the taking off OF the
trains and the lengthening out of the
runs of the crews has caused a great
deal of hard feeling on the part OF
the employees, and protests will soor
be brought to the main office. The
conductors have already asked fol
shorter runs, but have received 10 sat.
isfactory answer. The engineers
whose runs have been heightened, say
that If they had further distance t,
cover 1t would be unsafe,
In President Mellen's last annual re-
port he said that the expenses of tht
road had greatly increased through
the demands OF organized labor, Th,
discharge of employees since that timt
is believed to have more than mad,
up for the deficit.

was hummer The political situation of
the nation, state and town was gone

the campaign early and stay in until
after the votes were counted next No

The topic OF local interest to the COM
mittee was on the town representation
in the legislature next year. Under the
ususl custom Of the borough of West
Haven getting both nominees every
four years, several names were sug-
gested but none were brought forward
prominently enough to choose. 1t is ex-
pected also that although the upper
district had its representative, Watson

that 1t wolNd seek to get one of the
nominees again this year. A fight will

Alleged Wretched Condition.

New Haven, May 20, 'os.
My dear Editor:
/ wish to call attention TO the pub
lie Of the wretched condition Of col
lection of mail In this city. For IL
lustration, practically no collections
are made in the residential section
after p m. and the mail is not In
the main Office until noon and In
many instances not delivered before 5
p. m. This consumes twenty-four
hours, and In radius of say one or
two miles while It only takes a few
hours to get a delivery from New
York.
In many cities there is a midnight
collection, assuring prompt deliv-
cry in the morning either for this city
or nearby points.
1t is safe to say that not one-half
OF the boxes are tagged as to hours
OF collection.
New Haven Is too important cen
ter to be so far behind the times,
and ! believe there are many people
who voice this sentiment
Trusting you will publish this re-
main, Very truly,

reason the committee did not carry

1t was noticeable fact that ths fiva
