BOY SCOUT, ON COUNTRY HIKE.
 HIT BY BULLET
Victim of Mysterious Shot, Youth of 16 is Taken to
 Hospital.

A most mysterious shooting which has been kept from the public for nearly a week, and a result of which Edward Thomas Lynch, aged Is now. lies in "a precarious condition in St. Vincent'S hospital has mystified the parents of the youth, MT. and Mrs. James F. Lynch of 64 Oak street.
 The boy, whose face is marked with the bullets course from one cheek, across the nostrils, and through the to tell his parents or nurses how the shooting occurred, Probing has fail ed to reveal the bullet although the youths condition is f$aid to be inn proving. The shooting has just been reported to the police who will prob ably begin an investigation into the affair.
 The young man, who has been em- p1oyed sas a delivery boy at the Mofai- can Co.'S store, started on a, boy scouting expedition with about 25 oth- CT boys last Sunday morning. They h1anned to go toward Newtown. Who the boys were, where they went or when the shooting occurred is not known by the parents of the young man. It is thought, however, that the bullet was accidentally inflicted by another member of the party.
 Early on Sunday evening, an auto mobile brought the injured boy to hiss home and in the excitement of the moment the parents did not ask the name of the people who convey ed him to them although they under stood that they resided somewhere be- tween here and Newtown and near where the shooting occurred.
 pr. w. H. Curley was summoned and he decided that the boy should be taken to the hospital, where he was immediately removed
 My only care has been for my boy'' said the mother today. ssI don't know what happened to him and am willing to wait until he is well enough to tell me-

NAVY YARD FORGE HELPS FIGHT FIRE
 ON THAMES WHARF

AIlyn's Point, Conn.,, May 12-Fire was discovered at the end of the wharf at Allyn's Point at 11:15 this morning and quickly spread to coal pockets containing 5000 tons of soft coal. Although no official statement as to the cause of the fire was issued, it was thought sparks from the chinn- ney of barge was the cause of the condagration. Throughout the past year A11yn's Point has been used as a coal depot, the coal being sent from here over the Worcester branch of tn New York, New Haven~& & Hartford Railroad through New England.
 As soon as the fire was discovered workmen from the railroad hurried to the scene and with buckets attempt ed to q1rench the flames. The smoke commanding officer dispatched two launches and between 80 and 40 men. A switch engine was sent from New London and help was sent from Nor wich. News of the fire reached New London shortly before noon and the T. A. Scott Co. sent the tug T. A. Scott, Jr., and thei Thames ToWb oaC Co., sent the Acqueduct to the fire Both these vessels are equipped with special fire pumps.
 At 12:2o railroad officials reported that from all appearances the fire was under control and unless the fire spread from the end of the wharf to the main coal pocket no additional href1ghting forces would be needed.
 Including the force from the navy yard there were upwards of 75 men fighting the flames within a half hour of it's discovery. No estimate of tho loss could be made at this time as it was not known how much coal was d

IRON MOULDERS OF CONNECTICUT VALLEY CONVENE Report Conditions All Over Country Better For Trade
 Than Here, NATIONAL OFFICER ADDRESSES MEETING Mayor Wilson Professes Deep Affection For La
 bor Unions.

Iron holders of the Eastern United States everywhere but in Bridgeport have bettered their working condi- tions and wages, according to the dis cussiOn this morning at the opening session of the Connecticut Valley Conference board, part of the Inter national Mo1ders' Union.
 J. R. O'Leary, national vice presi- dent of the union, declared that mold CTS have improved their conditions immensely A move for better con ditions in Bridgeport is likely to be instituted soon.
 The opening session this morning was begun at 10 o'clock. Half an hour later Mayor c. B. Wilson ad- dressed the gathering.
 Mayor Wilson expressed himself in favor of labor unions, thereby surpris- ing those Bridgeporters who attended the session. Capital organizes, so why should not labor?'' asked Mayor Wilson. He, declared that unions will help the men get the best returns from their 1abors.
 William Wilson, of Ansonia, presi- dent of the conference board, presided at the meeting. Reports were read by President Wilson, Secretary Treas urer J. J. Kavaney of Springfield and Business Agent J. A. Loveday. Dele Connecticut and Western Massachu- setts. One delegate.CC. c. J. Kimball, came from Springfield, Vt.
 Twenty-Five locals, are represented in the conference board Two dele gates from each were received.
 Following Mayor Wilson's talk, Vice President O'Leary of the national body, addressed the members. He has travelled throughout the country since prosperity has been prevalent and he reports splendid conditions in the holders trade all over. Bridge port mo1derss he found, hadn't been so fortunate. \
 Congressman John I. Nolan, whose trade Is n1oldings is on the way to the conference from San Francisco. He was expected today. but it is now thought he will arrive tonight. He may address the session tomorrow.
 Congressman Nolan is an interest ing man. He enjoys the unique dis tinction of having been endorsed by Democrats, sProgressives and Repub- 1cans for his place in the House of Representatives.
 The conference will be continued tomorrow and may hold over until Sunday.
 Commenting on the strike of 60 ma chine molders at the Crane Co., off, cers of the union declared these men do not belong to the union and be cause of the nature of their trade, it hasn't, been represented in the union. The machine molders turn out work on what is known as 8 "merry-go- round.' Each man performs one of about a dozen operations with the aid of machinery, instead of turning out a mold Joy hand on a foundry floor, as the ordinary molders go.

 Anticipating any attempt of Mrs Papp to end her life careful guard is kept by Police Matron Mrs. David Jack over the cell in which she is confined Her temporary detention at the county jail quarters will be ar ranged tonight.
 A sister in We1land, Canada, notified of the 7occurrence is hastenine to this city to aid Mrs. Papp. No appeal has been made by the prisoner to her we'll todo parents in Canada, owing to a rupture that has existed for a period Of five years, \caused, it is said here by the marriage of the young girl to Nicholas Papp, without parental con- sent.
 Arrangements for the burial of Papp from St. Stephens Hungarian Catholic church on Monday are being made by the shopmates of the pair at the Metal Goods Go, where both were well liked. Undertaken Frank Poke will have charge ~of the funeral and the body will be laid to rest in either St. Michaers or Mountain Grove cem- eteries
 Mrs. Papp has demanded that she be permitted to attend the obsequies and the police are arranging to grant her wish. She will be escorted by at least two, detectives, both to the church and to the grave.
 In her cell, where she has been stripped of all artices with which she might harm herself, the young girl cries continually. She declares that Nicholas Papp is the only man she loved or ever could love. She reiter- .ates the statement that she would not she could end her own life and there by be with him in death.

 An autopsy, held upon the body Tkt1rsS1Ry by Medical Examiner S. M. Gar1ick, disclosed the cause of death to be gunshot wounds inflicted yestsr- day.
 Coroner John J. Phe1an will hold a continued hearing in the case on Sat urday morning in the county court house and much interest is displayed in police circles as to what statements will be made by the prisoner, who has asserted that in spite of her counse1's injunctions not to talk she will tell her version of the shooting and it's cause.
 No one has attempted to visit or solace the distraught woman.

NEW HAVEN ROAD SOON WILL HAVE
 HOTEL DE GINk
Accommodations For $50 Provided in Strictly Pro-
 hibition Surroundings.

The weH-known and popular New Tork, New Haven & Hartford railroad is going into the hotel business locally.
 A modified Hotel De Gink. with ac- commodations for $50, will be opened soon in the old Naugatuck carpenter shop in Railroad Court The hotel is for the exclusive accommodation of those transients whom the police and railroad may induce to act as freight truck chauffeurs, at the railroads per diem wage for such labor.

Hughes Not Obliged To Be More Specific
 In Suit Over Injury

The attempt to find out which nerve was injured when Frank J. Hughes, president of the board of as sessorss of this city, was hurt in an automobile crash, was frustrated this morning when Judge Webb in the su- perior court denied a motion for a. more specific statement in the S1O, 900 action brought by Hughes against Hugh Keegan and George Burns. Hughes claimed his nerves were in jured when the machine in which he was riding collided with Keegan's machine but he did not think he ought to go into more minute detail on the subject. The suit is still pend ing.
