HATTERs CHEER
C0NNETT AS THEY
RETURN TO WORK
Two Hundred Former Strikers
Applaud Employer When He Ap-
peals for Future Harmony.

With good feeling displayed by both
sides of the controversy when they re-
sumed their former relations today the
employees of p. V. Connett & Co.. in
Orange and this city, We're back this
morning at their benches
When the men assembled today in
Orange Eugene V. Connect. jr., in a
peasant talk with his old employees,
called their attention to the new rules
which will govern employment in the
hating factories and urged spirit of
| harmony. The men greeted his an
nouncement with cheers and the talks
will be given in all the departments.
Some men who had not been in the
| employ of the firm for some time prior
to the trouble in January were not
shopped when they started to work, as
1.-The firm is not shopping any men until
the new conditions right themselves.

agreement articles, which in measure
are similar to those of the mems, yes
terday afternoon ended the trouble for
the Comets, and the women returned
today.
Asked as to the possibility of an early
settlement of the trouble, so far as the
other firms are concerned, Mr.. Moffitt
president of the United Hatters of
| North America, said.
Il have knowledge from authentic
sources that several other manufac-
turers will be ready in few days to
make arrangements with the unions
The men who deserted the union and
remained at work for the firm were
reinstated to membership yesterday on
payment of 13 per cent. of the wages
earned by them since January Is, when
the trouble started. The few members
taken In were granted cards of nem-
bership on a cash payment of SIS each.
The women .in their agreement took
into their union the deserters and strike
breakers on the same terms.
The agreement of the women was
signed by Miss Mary Mulrainey and
Miss Kathryn Kennedy, president and
secretary of the United Hat Trimmers
of Orange and vicinity, and by Miss
Mary Hember and Miss Melinda Scott,
president and secretary of the Hat
Trimmers Association of this city.
Eugene V. Connett jr., and Ernest r..
Connect signed for the firm. and Judge
Davis affixed his signature as witness,
About 200 employees of the II. V. Con-
nett & Co. hat factory at 70 Richmond
street trooped to work today for the
first time in nine months.
Probably $50 hatmakers called at the
Richmond street factory between 1880
and 8 o'clock today. In that number
all of the old employees who reported
for work, about 120 in all, We're at once
put to work. The others, mainly men,
were told to come back Thursday,
which is the last day the old employees
have to report for work under the
agreement signed Yesterday by the firm
and the representatives of the United
Hatters of North America and the Hat
Trimmers unions of Orange and New
ark.
WITH the opening of the Connect fac
tories here and in Orange it is eX-
pected that other factories will rapid
ly fall in line. In fact, negotiations be-

union officials are now said to be un-

.BAlLOT-BOX LAW
SADDLES $4,000
BURDEN ON STATE
Gaskill Ruling That They Must
Be Delivered at Polling
Places Is Costly.

City Clerk James r. Connolly, of
this city. told Governor Fort in Tren-
ton today that it would cost $50, 700 in
this State to deliver ballot-boxes to
polling places as advised by Assistant
Attorney General Nelson b. Gaskill.
The law was construed by Mr.. Gaskill
last week to require such deliveries.
Heretofore election officers have called
at the city hall for their boxes
"The statute is negative" said the
city clerk today. ut could have been
construed, 1t seems to me, either way.
1t is not alone a question of delivery
costs, but of getting boxes out in time
for use and finding some one at the
polling places authorized to receive
them. Boxes and ballots cannot go out
of my hands except into the custody of
election officers"
Governor Fort said he knew nothing
of the Gaskill opinion, which was gwen
at the request of an obscure municipal
ity. So the decision to deliver stands.
Il will do as have In the past" said
Mr.. Connolly after his talk with the
Governor. II will have the election
officers call for the boxes at the City
Hall. Only this time 1 will pay them
what they deem proper compensation
for delivery of the box. That means
probably "a box for delivery to the
polling-place and return.
In that way we will get along in
Newark for about 5000 or $500 year.
This is the only practical way of de-
livery and 1t benefits the election
officers. Where am to get the money
for this increase, however, I don't
know"
