SODA DISPENSERS
 QUIT THEIR WORK
Two of Dicldnson's Employes Strike and the Pursuit of the Elusive
 Milkshade Becomes Difficult.

Pandemonium reigns, strike fol-
 lows strike with the rapidity of ma
 chine gun fire, capital trembles in its
 boots, labor with fever in its blood
 shot eyes strikes, demands and strikes anew. The climax of the whirlwind of recent events came today when the soda dispensers at the Dickinson Drug company fountain laid down the tools of their trade and walked from the scene of their labor with not a word of explanation of an expressed wish. ~>~ The words soda dispensers are used advisedly-there were two. At Riker-Hegeman's Clark & Brain erd's and CrowelPs the proprietors sit wearily within the sacred precincts dividing the bloated plutocoats from their hired hoipolloi and regard ask ance the least movement of the white coated clerks behind the advance trenches of prohibition. There has been no strikes as yet in any place, but Dickinsons but well it would be if every citizen should conscientiously save his interior from the soothing connections dispensed from the white marble counters with all the shiny things in back in anticipation of a lack of such delicacies in the days to come. They are still serving drinks at Dickinson's of course, but it is well to be prepared.
 It was impossible to locate either of the striking dispensers today. They have probably gone fishing or swim ming. Therefore the paper is not in a position to state whether the forma- ton of a union is contemplated or not. The proprietors state, however, that it is their intention to fill the places of the strikers as soon as pos sible, probably tomorrow. In the meantime the public anxiously waits for word from stands where it is wont to enjoy the festive milk-shake as to the possibility of far-reach- ing walkout and the consequent lack of between-meal disspations.

stockholder. against the New York Gen.
trail and the Rutland Railroad for an
accounting and an injunction restrain
ing the New York Central from exercls-
ing further control over the affairs
OF the Rutland as majority s~tockholder.
The contention that Hunnewell was
an improper complainant because he
was not a s,ockholder OF record in the
Rutland load at the time of the films
OF the suit in 1911 is dismissed by the
Judge. because 1t is too highly TECH
nical and narrow" since the complat 1-
ant legally owned eighty-three shares
OF the stock at the time he brought
suit, on May "a. 1911. Testimony shows
that James +. H%unnewell. father OF the
complainant, died in November Of the
preceding year and that his son had
been in possessions OF the stock, part or
the estate, since January 20. 1911.
There is no attack here against the
directors or officers in respect to mat
tiers OF internal management. nor is this
a case OF purchasing stock to stir up
litigation" said Judge Mayer. "On
the contrary, the suit proceeds on the
theory Of seeking redress for wrongs
inflicted by another corporation upon
