NEW BRUNSWICK, Jan. 22.--
Sheriff Edward f. Houghton today
ordered the dismissal of the twenty
two deputies arrested Wednesday
and charged with manslaughter IN
connection with the strike riots at
Roosevelt that resulted In the death
of two men and injury to score.
The men are all in the employ of the
O'Brien Detective Agency, of New
ark.
The sheriff would not say what
prompted him to order their dis
missal as deputies of Middlesex
county but it is believed that popu-
lar feeling against them by the citi-
zens of Roosevelt led to it.
The sheriff declared that he had
discharged the men under the rule
that provides that a policeman under
charges shall be suspended.
One of the deputies Is missing to-
day. He is Otto Guenther, or Gun
ther, of Newark. Joseph e. Stricken,
attorney for Guenther, said today:
II know nothing of his whereabouts.
If there is any truth in the report
that he is the man who fired the fatal
shot, and has skipped, have heard
nothing of it. / suppose he will come
UP here today"
County Detective John R. Ferguson
professed to believe that Guenther
was not concerned in the shooting.
II believe 1t will be found he had
nothing to do with it, but, anyway,
he is under bond,' he said.
Sheriff Houghton said it was none
of his affair.

Brunswick Wednesday night are:

months at the Hopkins & Allen Arms
company factory here, while active
preparations are under way for the
manufacture of the British army rife
which the Hopkins & Allen Arms COM

working on the machinery and tools,
for which orders have been placed to

received it will be installed in other
buildings for which negotiations are
under way, with a view to the extern

tons these are it is not yet stated, ex-
cept that the Gordon building on
Chestnut street has been leased for a
term of three years. Just what de-
partments are to be located in the
present factory or in the Gordon build
ing or the other places to be used can
not be stated until the whole plan is
worked out. but the inevitable extern
sion of the business to carry out the
big contracts it has undertaken will
mean the bringing to Norwich of a
constantly increasing force of mechan-
les and skilled workmen.
When the manufacture of the army
rifle is taken up it will call for the
| services of several supervising ex-
perts in that line, and after the war
contracts are over, the company ex-
poets to have established a. thoroughly
modern plant and to continue to man
