ENGLAND BROWNS ON WORLD WIDE
 PEACE PROPOSAL
(special from United Press.) ,

London, Jan. 6.-The worldwide peace proposal of Secretary of State Knox, which was addressed to the Foreign Offices of the great powers, will have no definite results, in the opinion of a high official of the Eng fish Foreign office.
 It is conceded that the proposal will receive as far as outward appearances go, a cordial reception, and that the various European chancellories VIII accept the peace principle involved.
 The trouble will arise, according to the English Foreign office attache, in bringing the nations into definite. binding agreement, most of them pre- ferring to settle their own difficulties without outside interference.
 Soveriegns, like the Czar and Elm manuel of Italy, who have been the strongest advocates of a world peace movement, would probably give Sec retary Knox's plan every possible en- couragement if not checkmated by their advisers, which would be- alto gether probable.
 England would prove hopelessly un- friendly, it is said, owing to her be- lief that she was caught mapping in the Hague peace conference when they the late Henry Campbell Zimmerman, the premier of England, actually cur tailed the English naval program only to find out later that Germany had correspondingly increased numbers of warships building. Ever since the Hague conference, England has looked with suspicion on any plan for Inter national peace.

NOT AUTHORIZED TO URGE BOYCOTT
TESTIMONY OF JOHN W. SCULLY ! OF SOUTH NORWALK, FORMER
 DIRECTOR, IN DANBURY HAT
 TIERS CASE.

Hartford, Jan. 6.-John w. Scully, of South Norwalk, a former director of the United Hatters of North Amer lea, was the principal witness for the defense in the $240,000 boycott suit in the United States court yesterday. Witnesses said that prior to the bring ing of the present suit he had only general knowledge of the trouble at the Loewe factory in Danbury. He said the agents of the unions who sought to have the union labels used ere not authorized to urge boy colt. A gruelling cross-examination was given the witness by Lawyer Merritt. Scully said he never knew of boycott being brought against a concern because it did not sell union made goods.
 Patrick Heating was another wit ness called. He said he knew noth- ing about the trouble at the Loewe factory at the time the suit was brought and his property was at- tached.
 At the afternoon session eight wit nesses from Norwalk and Danbury, all defendants. were examined. The significant feature of their testimony was that none of them was familiar with the details of the doings of the national officers of the Hatters' union relative to the alleged boycott against the Loewe firm. Daniel Barnes of Danbury when cross examined re- gard1ng the conditions of the unions in Danbury said the sentiment in that town was overwhelmingly in favor of unionism. William A. Brennan of South Norwalk testified that he had been a director of the National asso- citation some years ago. He said he had the utmost confidence in these officers for which reason he did not personally investigate their doings in connection with the Loewe trouble. The other witnesses were w. J. Wefshert, Nathan Hoy, Elmer R. Clark of Danbury, and James Kin nane, c. J. Flynn and Robert Drossor of Norwalk.

COLONEL WOOD LUOkS INTO
 THE HIKE MUTINY' TROUBLE
Coast Artillery Men at Fishers Island to be Tried by Garrison Court==Present Difficulty Declared to be
 tEe Outgrowth of Old Grievances

New London. Jan. 6.-The little mutiny'' of New Years Day, in which sixty-two men of the One Hundred and Thirty-first Company, Coast Ar tillery, attached to Fort H.G. Wright, on Fishers Island, finally brought Colonel w. T. Wood, United States inspector, down from the headquart- CTS of the East, on Governors Island, to investigate the trouble.
 Colonel Wood had all the sixty-two men before him separately and gave them a chance to air their grievances. All refused trial by @ summary court and will come before @ garrison court composed of three officers. The in- vestigation was conducted behind closed doors, and Colonel Wood re- fused to make public his findings un- til he reports to his chief, General Wood. This may lead to some changes at the post.
 Developments go to show that the trouble on New Years Day was only enlisted men complained bitterly of their treatment, making serious charges against three commissioned officers.
 Chief among the things complained of by the men was the order requir- ing the long walk on New Years, on which day, according to the customs and traditions of the service, all ex- cept guard and fatigue duties are suspended. Inquiry developed that General Wood has never issued an order requiring artillerymen to make a fifteen mile ''hike." It is only the mandate of the post commander here. The soldiers told the story of one enlisted man who reported to a com missioned officer. This superior did not like the way his hair was cut, so he made the private stand at atten- tion while he applied the shears. '"The barber wouldn't attempt to repair the damage that the officer had done," explained one of the sol diers. The man exhibited the ton sorial finish given his head by the of- ficer. The judgment of the barber was to be commended.
 As indicating that they are i'll used the soldiers pointed to the number of assertions and the many men who are
 buying their way out of the service. According to one soldier three men
 bought out in the Twelfth Company last week, and six non-commissioned
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1910-01-06

officers and four privates are buying out now.
 "Non-commissioned officers get their discharge here and re-enlist at some other post as privates to start all over rather than serve here again." said one man. "This ain't soldierin'. this is prison," he conclud- ed.
 One man who will be discharged very soon said that he would not re- enlist at this post for $1,OOO, but that he would enter the service anywhere else. He added that those who couldn't buy their way out of the service deserted if they got half a chance.
 The soldiers said that the whole Twelfth company had been refused leave for two months because the commanding officer at the post said their barracks were dirty. The men say that he reported them to the De- pertinent.
 According to the men, a blank has to be filled out with the reasons if a man desires leave.
 And they have to be good reasons, too," volunteered one soldier. They say that at no other post is this re- Quired.
 None of the men is allowed to ap- pear at the window or on the porches of the barracks during any military
 
 drill. They said that one man in the Twelfth company was fined $20 look ing out the window. They are not allowed to go out of the barracks ex- cept with their blouses on, even in summer. The blue and olive drab army shirts are not considered uni- forms by those in command.
 One discontented soldier complain ed that prisoners in the guard house were forced to do a servants duties around the officers houses.
 They maintained that fines were imposed for the slightest offence, and that the enlisted men receive no con- sideration.
 They made charges of brutality and excesses against some of the officers which could not be repeated. They say that they have to submit to four hours drill at the guns even in the most bitterly cold weather. Colonel w. c. Rafferty, the district commander, denied the charges or tried to explain these which applied to orders.

 The falling rain, which froze as it touched the ground, formed one great sheet of ice over the great city and by o'clock last. night Gotham was one vast skating rink.
 Horses fell to such an extent that street traffic was almost impossible Before midnight there were blocks on nearly every surface and elevated line and today they are making little effort to maintain a regular schedule.
 Mails were late in getting to the post office because of the slippery condition Of the streets. Few horses were seen cn the streets today and delivery is practically paralyzed. A dense fog that hangs over the rivers has made ferry traffic slow and dangerous.
 So busy have been the hospital phy- sicians caring for injured persons thai the anbulances could not answer hall the calls Outside physicians had tc be called upon. t8g

BUCKINGHAM IN PADDED CELL AT
 POLICE HEADQUARTERS
MAKES TOUR OF INSPECTION OF POLICE AND CHARITIES
 BUILDING.
Cordially Greeted By Inebriate Cell Occupant who Insists That the Mayor Shall Ascertain Why He is Locked Up.

Mayor Buckingham occupied a padded cell at police headquarters last night. His environment was not the result of any disturbance of his mentality, but was one of the fea- lures of a tour of inspection he made of the Police and Charities Building following the organization of the new police commission.
 The mayor had never been through police headquarters further than to visit the sergeant's desk, and the of fees of the superintendent and cap tain of detectives. Last evening, when the condition of the building was brought up in an informal talk fol- lowing the meeting of the commits slonerS, it was suggested that the mayor become acquainted with the structure.
 Escorted by Doorman James Hal pin and Clerk Smith of the police the portion of the building devoted to the housing of law-breakers. On the first floor he found pair of drunken men, one of whom in tear full voice saluted him as Eddie" and insisted that the mayor should tell him why he was locked up, On the second tier is the section devoted to the incarceration of females. None was arrested yesterday. On the third tier he found a score of pennileSS wayfarers, lying in all sorts of pos lures, some inside the cell rooms, and others about the corridors, drying their wet clothing and shoes against the steam pipes.
 On the top tier he saw the two steel cages used only for murderers, both of them vacant. The mayor found number of repairs needed, the accumulation of years of neglect, and he expressed surprise that the building should have been allowed to run down.
