EXPECT ALL NIGHT
 SESSION OF CAUCUS
Five Candidates for New Haven County Commissioner to Stand
 by C0Iors.

Hartford, Jan. 2G.-The caucus of the republican members of the legis- lature from New Haven county to nominate a commissioner to fill the vacancy which exists with the ex- riration of the recess appointment of James F. Cloonan of Meriden, will be resumed at the capitol tonight. 1t is understood that all candidates are standing firm.
 Last Tuesday something like sixty ballots were taken, record breaking number. The exact number is a mat ter of dispute as two or three were thrown out because of the vote cast exceeded the number of members in the caucus. The candidates are for mer Commissioner John Wilkinson of Orange, Mayor b. J. Donovan of Meriden, c. w. Covert of Branford, Fred l.. Gaylord of Ansonia, and D. Walter Patten of North Haven
 The candidates and many of their friends were in the capitol corridors today. Reports were many that a great effort was being made to have one or more of the candidates with draw. The early outlook was that each candidate would stand by his colors and members of the caucus look for an all night session.

URGES STATE PRINTERY.
Former Senator Neebe Presents Bill
 at Labor Conference.

Hartford, Jan. 26.-A conference of la Dor men, officers and committees of the Connecticut Federation of Labor and other interested in labor legis- lation, was held at the capitol today. Former Senator Fred Neebe of Meri- den presented for consideration a bill for a state printery, as advocated by the printing trades of the state MT. Neebes idea is to have the bill carry an appropriation sufficient to estab- fish a complete printing plant to do state printing estimated at about s55OOO. Other proposed labor bills which the federation probably wilt stand back of are these:
 Changes in the compensation law so as to eliminate the fortnight period in which the injured employe does not receive compensation, extending med ical treatment beyond the thirty day limit, easing the compensation to 66 23 per cent. instead of fifty per cent, and establishing a state insur- ance fund; a shorter work day for women and children; elimination of convict contract labor, and providing that advertisements for help in tinsas of labor troubles shall state that there is such trouble.

GRIEF OF CABARET GIRLS
 HAS BEEN TURNED TO JOY
They Thought ZAP Hyatt. Their Manager, Had
 Quit the Ship.
Anyone see 'AI ?"

I'll bite, 'Al' who? Alimony?'
 No, no, this isn't any joke. Has anyone seen "A Hyatt?''
 The above conversation ensued Mon- day morning between two cabaret performers at the Hotel Grand When the situation was explained there was a general shedding of tears and much female expression of opinion. Hyatt had disappeared and, according to one of the performers, he forgot to settle some of his bills before shaking the dust of New Britain from his feet
 Hyatt is manager of the cabaret and has been in New Britain since the opening of the show. He confid- ed to friends last week that he had lost $150 in New Britain, but ne hoped for business to pick up when he could recoup his losses.
 According to information received Hyatt is conducting the show on a fifty fifty basis. He and the male performers act as walters and re- ceive fifty per cent. of the libation receipts in the dining room while the show is in progress. He in turn pays his performers a salary but, ac- cording to the Herald's informant, he neglected this important item Satur- day night.
 Hyatt had a dispute with Isidore Simons, proprietor of the Hotel Grand, Saturday when the former an- nounced that he intended to take his performers to the Hotel Beloin for that night only. The dispute ended when Hyatt crooked his finger to the troup and they followed him to the Church street hostelry. It was on Sunday, it is claimed, that Hyatt packed up his tuxedo, his other sar- torial adornm ents and took a train for points unknown and way stations. One of the performers claimed that Hyatt took all the copies of music in sight and left them stranded with nothing but a high c in their throats
 The girls who were left in the lurch are Miss Ruth Sherwood. Miss Agnes Shirley and Madam Cerise La Fonde. The latter's husband is stop ping at the Grand. Walter Shirley, brother of Agnes and employed as a waiter, was also said to be bemoaning the departure of Hyatt.
 The sun broke through the cloud last night when Hyatt returned and it was announced at the hotel today that everything is running smoothly as far as Proprietor Simons knows.

WANTS TO DIVORCE WIFE
 ON STOLEN HONEYMOON
Edwin H. Elton Charges Spouse With Desertion
 and Infdelity.
Especial to the Herald ]

Plainville. Jan. 26.-Charging his wife. Veronica C. Elton, who recently eloped with Irving B. Carter of this place, with desertion and inidelity, Edwin H. Elton of Bristol, has in- stituted proceedings for divorce and, maintaining that he is ignorant of Ter whereabouts he has secured an order from the superior court to ad- yertise the action as a substitute for serving papers on her. The suit is made returnable before the March term of the court.
 Mrs. Elton's two elopements with Carter, who is married, and was prominent socially and fraternally iif Plainville, created state wide sensa = tions. Both families had been warm friends and it was while visiting at the Carter. home in this town that the first stolen honeymoon was planned, Carter and the pretty Bristol ma tron deserting their respective partners in wedlock and leaving town together. Penitent and remorseful the pair returned a week later. and explaining that their trip was like five days in hell' they sought for giveness. They were taken back by their spouses and the incident was forgotten by their rela tives. who philosophically viewed it as an unfor- tunate escapade, until a few months ago when the soul-mates again dis appeared. #.
 Carter was employed as bookkeeper in the foundry owned by his father Representative F. T. Carter and it was said at the time that he had con- siderable money when he started on his last trip.
 Elton told a Herald man today that he had received no word from the couple since they left, and had no knowledge of their present where abouts. Asked if Carter's wife also proposed to sue her unfaithful partner for divorce, MT. Elton confessed com plete ignorance of the woman's in- tentions
 Shortly after the second elopement Mrs Carter and her young son left town, ostensibly on a trip to Phila- delphia. They have not returned since. Elton denied this morning knowing anything a about Mrs. Carter's absence, except having read that she had gone to Philadelphia. He declined to give the name of his counsel and refused to discuss the case further.
