THREE BOYS ENTER SAME STORE FOUR
 TIMES IN 4 WEEK
Police Go on Trail of Key workers While Lads Use
 Window For Thefts.

Having foiIed the police and de4ec- tives of Bridgeport for nearly a week, three youths, none more than Is years of age were arrested this morning by Policemen J. E. Barton and W. H. HaIpin, charged with the burglary of Moses Friedman's grocery store at S1 Hamilton street, entered four times within a week.
 So clever1y were the burg1aries exc cuted by the boys that in each case the police were sent upon the trail of expert key-workers, for there was no evidence to show that entrance had been by windows, which Fred Fermo, aged IS of 58 Green street, Peter Fer. raro of S36 Pembroke street aged IF and Mike Santer aged 12 of IA Green street had opened by means of a case knife and had closed after them as they left the building.
 At headquarters to-day where the little fellows were brought,k much sur prise was shown by officers long schooled in tracing crime as the boys explained their methods of getting in- to the building. Small amounts of money were obtained from the bur glaries, the proceeds of which were spent for confectionery.

Washington June 5. -. President Wilson was to-day putting the finish ing touches on his latest note to Ger many concerning the sinking of the Lusitania- It already had been ap- proved in principle by the cabinet

TEACHERS WILL HAVE INDIGNATION
 MEETING MONDAY

That the expected coup of the mem bers of the board of education who approve of the merit system at any cost-to the teachers may fall through is- evidenced to-day by the fact that the teachers who claim to have been treated unfairly say they will refuse to sign their contracts.
 Competent counsel has been con- suited and the instructors have been informed that they do not have to sign the contracts. It is expected that lively session of the board of education will develop on the evening of June 4 as a result.
 It has been learned that many teachers never signed their contracts hitherto until the middle of the sum- mer and some signed them in Sep tember. There is no doubt in the minds of the teachers who have been deprived of their increase that the new form was adopted to prevent ac- ton.
 The Bridgeport Teachers associa- ton will have a meeting Monday af- ternoon. That something of import ance is likely to develop is evidenced by the fact that the notices urge ev- cry teacher to be present.

HAMILTON UNDER FIRE AT NAVAL
 ACADEMY PROBE
Bridgeport Midshipman, With Six Others, in Trou-
 b1e At Annapolis.
SEVEN GET LAWYERS
 TO FIGHT DISMISSAL
High Marks in Recent Elk aminations Leads to Sus-
 picion of Irregularity.

Accused of ''gouging'' in connection with final examination in modern languages at the U. s. Naval Acad- emy, Annapolis, Midshipman Stuart A. Hamilton, son of H. H. Hamilton, of this city. faces the possibility of court martial and dismissal from the institution and the naval service.
 Hamilton's case, together with those of six other midshipmen, was heard yesterday by Secretary of the Navy Josephus Daniels. At the hear ing were several members of the con gressional committee on naval affairs, Capt FNullam, superintendent of the Naval Academy and other high off cers. The accused nidshipmen were represented by Representative Car lin, of Virginia, ,and other attorneys.
 The hearing was in secret and con tinued for several hours. Though the farewell hop for the graduating class took place last evening. the inquiry continued into the evening. A de- cision is expected today or tomor- row.
 Hamilton is graduate of the Bridgeport High school in the class of 1912, and is now 8 member of the second class in Annapolis. His class will be graduated next June. Hamilton is prominent in athletics at the Naval Academy and is now sec- ond basenan on the varsity baseball team.
 When the recent Combinations in Spanish were held, there was an un- usual number of high marks. This led to an investigation, and the re- port was made to Supt- FuIlam that many nids1ipmen had advance in formation as to the questions of the examination. The report of the in- vestigatfng officers, 1t is said, recon mended that the following r11idship- men be dismissed:
 Ralph Nick. Nelson, of New York, first class; Chaplin E. Evans .of vir- ginia; Stuart A Hamilton, of Connec- ticut, and l.. P. Vessels, North Caro- 1ina- second class; James D. Moss, of Maryland; T. W. Harrison, Jr., of Virginia, and D. E. Duncan, of Michi- gan, third class. st1
 The report of the board of inquiry which Is said to have recommended disrn issa1s in all cases, led to irnme- dfate action by the parents of the accused midshipmen. They, as well as the nidshipmen, held that the stu dents had not been given fair oppor- tuntty to defend themselves. Counsel was retained, among the lawyers be- ing Attorney Robert Moss. of An napoIis, father of one of the accused midshipmen.
 The hearing by Secretary Daniels yesterday lasted six hours. A mum Der of cadet officers, as well as aca- denici ommcials, were called to tesd- fly. It was reported that the investi- gators sought to determine if there eoists at the academy Q definite sys- tenn of obtaining advance information on examinations. The testimony. it was reported, may reflect somewhat on the teaching staff at the school
 Midshipman Nelson, of the first class was to have received his dipIo- ma yesterday. It has been held up pending a decision in his case.
