Public Market
 Drivers Strike % For Higher Wage

! The drivers of the Bridgeport Public. Market. who are not aniIiated with the; American Federation. of Labor. held sal=- little strike all of their own this morn ing when in a body they dropped the lines and steering wheels Of nins lwag- ons and automobiles in front Of the place and quit work.
 The proprietors at once notthed their patrons that deliveries could not be- made this morning but that a new force of drivers would be installed by afternoon.
 The walk out occurred after ,tsae drivers had submitted demands for=an- increase in wages from an average Of SIP and $14 to $1e-5o. A refusal of the company to grant this increase in lieu of shorter hours brought about the crisis.
 Drivers claim that their hours be- gin at 7.S0 and are indefinite, especial ly on Saturdays, when it is sofnetimes necessary to work until naidpight. No picketting will be resorted 10 though there Is talk of the drivers becoming affiliated with the teamster's union of the A. F. of L.

STOLE FATHERS BIG. TOURING CAR TO 60.
 HUNT TING OUT WEST.
Massachusetts Youngsters Found Here With Big Gar
 And No Funds.

Eugene Meas, aged 12. of Airing ton, Mass. and David Daley aged 14. of Somervi11e. Mass. were appre- hended in stratford yesterday after noon by Detective George Simons and are being held at police headquarters awaiting the arrival of their parents.
 Intent on taking trip as far west as Arkansas in a. seven passenger au- tomobtle touring car, the property of Florence Meas, a rich produces dealer located at 56 Longwharf, Boston, Mass. the two. youngsters had with them a complete supply of blankets and other bed coverings as well as well as a quantity of Ammunition, a Remington repeating rifle. a .3S ealibre revolver. fully loaded tennis racquets,- croquet balls. fishing tackle and everything that would go to make up a complete camping outfit
 When arrested by Detective Simon in Stratford Meas had but 24 cents in his pocket while Daley was pennd- less. Meas told the officer Of the law that in passing over the toll bridge at Saybrook, Conn, he was forced to deposit with the toll collec- tor a large diamond stud the property of his father. which was valued at $loo.
 The car which ds valued at ap- proximately $4,0OO was driven by the s12 year old son of Meas who is ap- parently an adept at handling the machine. On retiring for the night the youngsters would stop the car at some dark spot along a country. road, spread their blanket and go to sleep as unconcerned as could be. It was their intention to go on a. hunting trip in the Ozarks, according to young Meas. who claims to be experienced in bear hunting.
 They will probably be returned to their respective homes tomorrow and the rest of the tale will most likely be buried in the wood shed as the father of the Meas boy has expressed himself as being very indignant over the action of his son.
