The public service commission has
set the time for the hearing on the

the office of the commission in the

kins, secretary of the board of trade,
at the insti9ation of that body, and
was fled with the public service com
mission a week ago last Saturday
The delay in setting the date for
the hearing on the railroad station mat
ter was due in part to the session of
the legislature and in part to the in
disposition of Commissioner W. A.
Dutton.

AUSTRIANS IN RETREAT
AFTER STUBBORN FIGHT
Servia and Bulgaria said to Have
Reached Friendly Settlement of
Their Troubles.

LONDON, April 6, 1916 p.m-What
has been called the Easter lull in the fight
ing is marked along both battle lines eX-
cept in the Carpathians, where the strug
gle for access to the Hungarian plains is
still going on.
This relative quiet has given opportunity
for discussion by the British press Of the
American note in reply to the British or
der in council The comment on the COM
muncation has been widespread Most of
it expresses qualification with the tone OF
the note, but a great difference of opinion
is shown as to possible results.
Newspapers which from the first have
advocated a formal blockade of Germany
see a loophole in the note for action on
the part Of England leading to this end,
while others express the feeling that a
fuller understanding by the United States
Of the British position will lead to acqui-
escence in the present order in council.
Russia reports fighting within the boun-
daries Of Hungary.
The Austrians are described as retreat
ing after stubborn fight.
On the other hand, the Austrians claim
to have prevented the Russians from cross
ing the river Dniester and to have taken
140O prisoners.
In the diplomatic field there IS little OF
interest except a report that Bulgaria and
Servia have reached friendly settlement oi
the trouble arising from the invasion Of
Servian territory by Bulgarian irreguiars

The little girl was playing in

large boulder rolled down from the top.
Her left leg was broken twice be-
tween the knee and hip and both
bones of the right leg were terribly
crushed and broken.

TEXTILE INDUSTRY
is THREATENED
Thousands Of Hands Will Be Thrown
Out of Work Unless Dyestuffs
Are Imported.

WASHINGTON, April 6.-Represen-
tatives of American textile manufac-
turers headed by former Congressman
Metz told the White House and state
department officials today that the
end is in sight = for operations of
American textile mills unless the gov
ernment can do something to bring
dyestuffs out of Germany
They were assured by Secretary Tu-
multy and Counselor Lansing that the
question would be taken up for further
effort.
The manufacturers told the officials
that the supply of dyestuffs in the
United States was now practically ex-
hausted and that unless more could be
imported many operatives would lose
their jobs or have their earning ca
pacity greatly reduced.
The committee declared they had
in communication with manufacturers
in 2S states and had found that mills
employing 100000 operatives would
face being closed within 80 to go days
unless relief comes.
They declare other mills will ulti
| mately feel the neeu of dyestuffs ant
viii have to throw many others out o.
| work. Members of the committee De
clared efforts to produce dyestuffs il
| the United States can be of no practi
cal value for some time.

YEARLY STATISTICS
Gain in Membership in Church and
Sunday School Home Expendi-
lures Less-Investment More.

John NJ. Comstock, statistician of
the Congregational denomination in
Vermont. furnishes the following facts
in yearly statement for the current
number of the Vermont Missionary:
The membership of the churches has
made a substantial advance, standing
at 1868, gain of 134 from last year.
A decrease, unprecedented in recent
years, in the nonresident membership,
makes the increase in resident mem
bers even larger, 261.
The number of additions, 1916, is the
largest in five years. Seven hundred
sixty of these were by confession and
456 by letter The removals were 1882,
402 by death, AL by letter, 239 by re
vision of roll. The total is fairly av-
erage number, but the removals by re
vision are more than for many years
This partly accounts for the decrease
III the absentee list
Sunday school members, now 1S,945
show gratifying increase of 137. and
the membership of young peoples so
cieties SOFA, an even larger gain of 455
Men s organizations, while one more il
number, show loss of 421 in member
ship, and boys clubs are reported
from > fewer churches, with a loss il
membership also of 5.
Home expenditures, $24s, ,923. are
$443l less than last year, while the
appraised value of church property
| $2.213,375 has increased to the amount
| Of $54, ,375. Invested funds, now 1869.
400, have increased $33,711.
The report of benevolence leave
something yet to be desired. While tn,
total reported gifts, $49.75s exceed
| those reported last year by $1,461. tn,
increase is in the way of undenomina
tional gifts, the contributions for tn
support of cur regular denominations
work $33 ,433, being $1.0l6 less than il
the preceding year. Very likely tn
/ European war has diverted many gift
i from their usual channels, and may q
i the same the present year.
i On the whole, the review of the pas
year which the figures brings is encou1
aging and the outlook for 1915 is hope

Expects England to Make Reply.

WASHINGTON, April 6.-With the
publication today of the note in reply to
the British government orders in council
proclaiming a blockade commerce to and
from Germany the American government
rested its case.
Great Britains next move is awaited
with keenest interest in diplomatic circles
The note, although couched in friendly

and reiterates the intention of the United
States to insist upon its rights.
1t declares that to admit that right
would be TO assume an attitude of neu-

Great Britain, which would be inconsistent
with the solemn obligations OF this govern

The torpedoing of the Italian steamer
Luigi Parodi, reported last night, is be-

the Curpathians are doubted in Berlin.
Further fighting has occurred between
Belgian and German forces in Africa. An

MRS. AvERILL NOT A PARTY.
Judge Fish Sustained Her Demurrer
Cross Bill Insufficient.

Judge Frank L. Fish, as chancellor,
has sustained the demurrer of Nellie
f. Averill to the amended cross bill of
the Vermont Valley Railroad Co.
against George G. Averill and Nellie
f. Averill, and her motion to dismiss
He sustains the demurrer, and the
cross-bill, insofar as it makes Nellie
f. Averill party to the suit, is ad-
judged insufficient and dismissed with
costs to Nellie f. Averil
This suit grew ont of the attempt of
the railroad to remove a cement wall
which Mr.. Averill had built at the
rear of his Main street property adja-
cent to that of the railroad. The rail
road later tried to have Mrs Averill
made party to the suit.
Judge Fish, as chancellor, declined
to grant a motion to stay the prosecu-
tion of the suit of Mr. Averill against
the railroad in the law courts.
