The two men are Antonio Marcuai
and Amidio FigereIlo. Neither is
dangerously injured, it is said, and
they will recover unless some unfor-

According to the best information
thus far obtained by the authorities,
the men quarreled in the jungles, just
outside of Portland. yesterday morn

the fight during which he landed on
Figerelio's head with enough force
to fracture the skull Ffguerello stag

block traffic. The strikers took the mayors advice and immediately dis persed with the promises to carry out his orders.
 It is understood that Mayor Quig- ley has declined to speak at a meet ing to be held in Turner hall this evening.
 Wants to Carry Gun.
 Captain Grace received visit from a young man named Oliver Stowell last evening who asked for permission to carry a revolver. He claimed that he was frightened by intimidation on part of the strikers and wanted to have protection. Some sound advice regarding firearms was given the young man, and he went his way minus the permit.
 An Economic Loss.
 New Britain is suffering a great economic loss through the strike. Thousands of dollars which otherwise would be in circulation are tdling. The large amount of money the man. ufacturing concerns place in circula- tion each week will be tied up for some time at least and the city will suffer a depression as a consequence. Merchants will be called upon for extended credit should the strike con-. tinue much longer and it will be weeks, probably, before the strikers regain their financial poise. The Connecticut company will suffer to some extent. Working people who have been accustomed to ride to and from the factories are conspicuous by their absence and the coffers of the trolley company will be hit hard in the event of prolongation of the strike.
 But the greatest harm will result through the stagnation of the pay rolls. The butcher, the baker and all the others will be forced to wait for their pay and cash will be spent only in case of necessity. When the strike first broke out the workmen acted as if on a holiday but within a few days retrenchment began. /
 Conferences Being Held.
 Whether Mayor Quigley will be asked to act as mediator between manufacturers and officials is begin ming to be thought over by many who are keeping in close touch with the situation. Hardly a day passes that he is not in conference with fac tory officials although he declined today to state the purpose of the councils or their probable outcome. Treasurer Herbert H. Pease of the New Britain Machine company was closeted with the mayor in the lat ter's office this morning.
 Policemen Losing Sleep.
 One feature in connection with the strike that is being overlooked is the long grill through which some of the policemen are going. Many of the bluecoats are getting only four or five hours out of twenty-four. While there is no disposition to grum- ble, the policemen earnestly wish some relief would come One blue coat who had been on duty in the storm all night was forced to go out on the street again this morning without his breakfast.

FIRE PREVENTION
 WILL HAVE TW0DAYS
New Britain Is to Observe Event
 in Thorough Manner

Fire Prevention Day, appointed by coming week, is going to be ob- served in New Britain in a manner that will be remembered for some time to come. In fact it will extend over two days and a strong effort will be made to imbue all good citi- zens with the real spirit of the oc- casion. Fires, preventable fires cause tremendous damage in the United States every year and some effort is to be spent to educate people to take precautions that will result in fewer fires and consequently less loss of life and property.
 Definite plans for the observance of the day were made last night at meeting of the general committee in the board of public works room in City hall. Mayor Quigley chair man of the general committee, pre- sided and E. w. Schultz was secre- tary. Reports were made by the sub committees on education and pulp
 licity and on plan and organization.
 Alderman V. B. Chamberlain re- ported for the former committee. He recommended that arrangements be made for observing the day in the public schools with exercises and ad- dresses. It was suggested that six or eight speakers be secured for this work, that circulars urging the value of fire prevention be printed and cir culated among the school children and that the newspapers be asked to
 give full publicity to the campaign. It was also urged that a parade of the fire apparatus be held and that the Boy Scouts and veteran Bremen
 be asked to take part. Cooperation
 in making the day a success was sug- gested through meetings of the vari-
 ous Patents and Teachers associa- tions.
 Alderman Jester, chairman of the committee on plan and organization, gave report, which was acted upon by section. It was decided to have headquarters for the event in the rooms of the board of health in the City hall where information can be given and reports received. It was decided to appoint a finance com- mittee and F. H. Afford and W. l.. Hatch were named as members of this committee.
 The munlclCal autnOrltleS under Mayor Quigley are to have charge
 of the event and in each ward sub committees are to be chosen. These
 committees will be composed of the alderman, four councilmen and ten prominent citizens to be appointed by the alderman of each ward. This , will make a full committee of ninety members including all six wards of the city. It is planned to have 3 member of the Board of Fire Under writers and a member of the Cham Der of Commerce on each ward com mittee Each committee member will be furnished with a badge and will have auth ority to conduct inspections and give suggestions to property own CTS as to meth ods of fire prevention The badges will be issued by super intendent of the board of health. While the, committees will have au- thority to make inspections and of fer suggestions to citizens, the whole aim of the movement is to educate and instruct and the committees will seek to imbue everyone with the true spirit of the occasion, which is com munity effort in fighting a common and terrible enemy

WAR SHARES ACTIVE
 ON STOCK MARKET
Westinghouse Makes Gain Of
 Over Three Points

New York, Oct. 2.-Speculative in= terest in today's market centered around a few specialties, mainly those of the war contract variety. Westinghouse, which came forward with a bound in yesterdays late operations, claimed the bulk of at- tention, trading in that issue during the first hour amounting to one-third of the whole. At its maximum of 13s 3-s' the stock showed a gain of 6 1-2 points. Steel moved uncer- tainly, failing to equal yesterdays quotation. but sensational gains were recorded by General Motors, Amer ican Car and some of the more ob- scure industrials. Bethlehem Steel rose ten to the new high price of 375. Bonds were firm. The clos ing was trong.
 Wall Street, 10:30 a. m.-Heavy trading in war shares was resumed today. Westinghouse again looming into prominence. That stock opened with 5000 shares at 133 3-4 to 134, against yesterdays final price of 1927 7-S, later advancing to 1855 3-4. General Motors, which recently dis bursed a 50 per cent. dividend, rose 10 to $50, and a miscellaneous group of specialties showed gains of l to 8 points. United States Steel made further fractional improvement at the outset but reacted. Similar uncer- tain tendencies were manifested by other industrials. Railways were again virtually eliminated from spec ulative consideration.

They complained that the strikers used violence and threats and even went so far as to hit them. One of the striking women used stones, it is claimed. The complaintants sailants but said they could pick them out.
 Accordingly, when the Screw shop employees were paid off at 1O:30 o'clock this morning Officer Fred Wagner, accompanied by the three girls, was on hand When the Os- troski and Pothra girls called for their pay they were identified, placed under arrest and locked up in cell at police headquarters.
 Conditions Unchanged.
 Reports from other factories af- fected by the labor troubles state that conditions remain about the same. The workers at the Corbin Screw Corporation received their pay today and dispersed immediately on receiving it.
 There is no apparent change of the attitude of the strikers or the officials at the Union Manufacturing company, the foundry remaining closed.
 Meetings to Be Held.
 number of mass meetings are being scheduled by the strikers for next week in various halls. This eve ming the polisners and buffers will gather at St. Jean de Baptiste hall on Church street where plans for the formation of a union will be made A will probably be in attendance and will deliver an address and enroll mem bers in the union.
 The strikers of the Corbin Screw corporation will meet Monday after noon at 3 o'clock in old Turner hall. The machinists continue to meet daily at union nall, where the situation is thoroughly discussed by the men, and talks are given by Organizer Cedar holm.
 Mayor Talks to Strikers.
 Mayor G. A. Quigley last evening addressed the strikers of the New gathered in front of the factory as the workers were leaving. The may or said that he had been informed that they were not conducting them- selves as they should and he wished to acquaint himself With conditions. He advised the men against gather ing around the factory or on streets in a manner that would tend to

legitimate purposes. Lenders are, it is true, showing some disposition to put curb upon the sensational move ments shown by some of the indus trials that usually associated in the public mind with war orders. But this same restraint is not showing it. self in the market as a whole, the we'll known investment stocks being entirely outside it's influence. With the active season for crop funds hav- ing reached its peak, we are undoubt- edly facing a period of even greater easiness in money circles and it is not unlikely that, as in the past, the ac- cumulation of funds will seek the se- curities markets for profitable invest ment. .%-~ sN~-7 r z #-s
 Source of Nervousness.
 The war will continue to exert it's influence as a spasm odic factor in the market and will undoubtedly from time to time prove the source of some nervousness and more or less violent f1uctations. But prospects are very favorable to the belief that America will not become an actual participant. How important a market factor the war still is was indicated on Thursday, for instance, when the news was re- ceived that the American sailing ship Vincent had been sunk in the White Sea. The earlier reports asserted that the vessel had been torpedoed by a German submarine. This being so directly at variance with the assur- ances so recently given by the German Foreign office as to the change in its submarine policy clothed the incident at first reported with considerable inn portance and liquidation on quite an impressive scale ensued in the market Subsequently the real facts were cabled, namely that the ship had struck mine The relief that was felt caused a substantial recovery from the severe declines in the price level.
 The market conditions seem such as to encourage conservative invest ments in well selected stocks, espe- cially in the standard dividend paving railroads, which have. thus far not par. ticipated in the price advances to the same extent as many of the indus trials.
