DANBURY HATTERs' STRIKE
STILL UNSETTLED.
Failure of Father Kennedy's Efforts
for Cancellation.

Danbury, Conn, June 4.-The meet
anss between the national executive
and advisory boards of the United
Hatters of America and Rev. ]. d.
Kennedy of st. Josenh's church, look
ang toward a local settlement of the
hatters' strike, were brought to close
tonight without reaching an agree
ment.
Nothing definite was given out as
10 the propositions submitted at the
conferences, which have been in daily
and nightly sessions since Tuesday,
but it is understood that the plan was
to have the men return to work pend
ing a settlement of the strike by ar
bitration. The shops, it is said, would
take the men back for period of
ninet days and run as open SHOPS.
To the open shop question the union
representatives refused to assent. The
only basis on which the manufactur-
ers could open the factories would be
as open shops unless they either vio
lated their agreement with the Manu-
facturers association. Of which they
are members or to resign from the
association.
Under their agreement with the
Manufacturers association the local
manufacturers are bound not to treat
directly with the union and it was for
this reason that Father Kennedy took
up the matter with the official boards.
The failure of the conferences to
effect a strike settlement is a great
disappointment to both sides, as it
was thought that an early resumption
of work might be brought about

ing. medicine Illegally and once for

Statement by Prospective Bride.
The wedding of Miss Garwood and
Count Bettino di Noise Padua was set
for yesterday and a license had been
procured. According to Miss Garwood
the marriage was not broken on on
account OF the Intervention Of her sia-
ter but by the count himself when
he received letter from a brother in
Austria, who had learned Of the pros
pective union, saying that his sister
in-law claimed that the bond between
herself and the count had not been
annulled.
Miss Garwood says that the count
whom she intended 20 marry becaus3
he was a refined and cultured Rentic-
man, was astounded at this claim. and
had now gone to Italy to obtain from
his father, who. was in possession OF
the papers, proof of the settlement

Paris, June 4.-The heroine OF the
proposed marriage which the machin-
cry OF the state department at Wash
ington was put into motion to pre-
vent Is Miss Isabel Garwood. a white
haired woman, who gives New York
as her place of residence. She is now
a guest at the Continental hotel here.
The prospective bridegroom is Count
Bettino di Noise Padua. who once was
a resident of New York and whom
Miss Garwood met in Egypt. The en-
gagement of Miss Garwood to the
count was announced in these des-
patches on April 16.
How Intervention Was Brought About.
The Intervention Of the state depart
ment AZ Washington was secured
through the Rev John b. Quinn of
the Church of the Ascension, Wash
ington, at the instlgation of Miss Gar
woods sister, Miss Frances A. Gar
wood of New York. The state depart-'
ment transmitted to Ambassador Reid
at London and later TO Ambassador
White, here, the results OF its inves-
tigation into the record of the counts
life in New York and of his antece-
dents in Italy which were obtained by
Baron Mayor des Planches, the Ital-
ian ambassador to the United States.
According TO this information the
count is not an Italian nobleman, but
an Austrian, who practiced medicine

COMPROMISE PROBABLE
In Trouble Between New Haven Road
and Adams Express Company.

New Haven, June At can be stat
ed authoritatively that the claim of
the New York, New Haven e. Hart
ford Railroad company for a large
amount due to alleged violation of con-
tract by the Adams Express company,
has now entered the realm of active
negotiations. and conferences have
been held upon the subject, The Ad-
ans Express company having been
given until July 1 in order to make
a definite answer. In railroad circles
here the view prevails that the matter
is one of great seriousness and in
wolves the future relations of the two
corporations.
1t is understood also that the mat
ter is connected with the contract be-
tween the Adams Express company
and one or more companies on whose
lines IL operates outside the New Ha-
ven system. The impression prevails
among those in position to- know the
facts that the outcome will be a COM
promise, owing largely to the difficulty
of accurately defining the New Ha-
ven's claims, as they reach back
through such a long period of time.

ers OF the striking motormen and con-
ductors. followed by the deportation OF
the 450 strike breakers who came here

employees of the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit company.
Strike Lasted One Week.
The strike began one week ago to-
morrow morning and at about the same
hour the men quit their positions on
May 29 they will again take up their
burden tomorrow. The termination OF
tbe trouble between the capital and its

officials and the strikers representa-
tives. These conferences were follow
ed by additional meetings today

abolished: ten hours viii constitute a
days work; all employees will be per-
inftted to purchase their uniforms in

cation by The city controller OF the
books of the company, 1t can be shown
that more than 22 cents an hour can
be paid without crippling the finances
of the Rapid Transit company then
tie men will insist upon a further ad-

day set fire to the veil of another
child, Doris Maloney, age 10, who was

hands, while robe wrapped quickly
about her served to smother the
flames. There was no panic among
the congregation, one of the priests by
his coolness succeeded in calming a
few excited women who arose in their
seats as if intending to run from the
church. The burned child was re-
moved to an ante-room and an am
bulance which was summoned hurried
her to the hospital 1t was found that
she had sustained serious burns about
the limbs and the lower part of the
body. The physicians tonight would
make no prediction as to her prospects
of recovery. The girl is the daughter
