S92,3S1 INCREASE
IN BENNINGTON
GRAND LIST
Listers Have Completed Work for
the Present Year
TOTAL VALUATION s5,G46,9l7
Some Shrinkage Due to New Offset
Law and Reduction in Quantity
of Live Stock.

The listers H. B. Hutchins, r. F.
lockwood, James II. Grennan and Ed
mond Lafranchise have completed the
annual assessment of property for tax
alton purposes and closed their books
Wednesday afternoon.
In completing the totals the listers
find that the valuation of all property,
both real estate and personal, is $92,.
3S1 in excess Of the valuation secured
last year.
There was a loss of two in the num-
Der of poll taxpayers but the listers
are Of the opinion that there are more
bona fide residents in the list than
was the case year ago.
In view of the loss sustained through
the amendment to the tax laws per
mitting offsets up to $1,000 and the fact
that not nearly so much live stock is
being kept on the farms, the listers
feel that the town has made an excel
lent showing, especially in view of the
fact that in some of the cities and lar
ger towns the grand lists are not near
ly so large as they were last year.
The total valuation of both real and
personal property is S5,646,S17, divided
into real estate at $3,964,95S and per
sonal at Sl210,559.

C. 0. P. DELEGATES
MANIFESTED NO
ENTHUSIASM
Opening Session Was Dull and
UnlnterGSting
HARMONY TALK CONTINUED
Conference With Progressives Expect.
ed to Show Some Definite
Developments.

Chicago, June 9.-The republican ma
tional convention assembled in the
Coliseum yesterday, heard a keynote
speech delivered by Senator Warren G.
Harding OF Ohio, perfected an organiza
ton and adjornued until II o'clock
this morning. 1t all took just two
hours, and in its lack of demonstration
and its strict attention to the busi-
ness in hand was reminiscent of the
Philadelphia convention Of 1900 that
nominated Mckinley and Roosevelt.
For one hour and 20 minutes Senator
Harding, the temporary chairman, de
lvered carefully prepared speech,
punctuated in the telling points with
brief periods of hand clapping and ap-
pause, but at no time did demonstra-
tion occupy more than a half minute
by the watch The convention was 20
minutes behind the hour arranged for
its assembly, but when Chairman
Hires of the republican national com
mittee brought down his gavel at ll.25
o'clock it moved quietly and with pre-
cision until adjournment at LIS.
The talk OF harmony with the pro
gressiyes who assembled in convention
about the same time was lost for the
time being in the work OF organizing
the republican convention but it went
on under the surface meanwhile and
there we're renewed indications that
the republican leaders were consider
ing the plan OF appointing a confer
enee committee to talk with the pro
gressives in the hope of finding a com
promise ground. Among members OF
the republican national committee the
report persisted that there was plan
TO have the republican convention IT.
self name such a conference com
mittee at todays session.
Former Senator Jackson of Mary
| land, republican national committee
man from that state, last night sent
a telegram to Col Roosevelt at Oyster
Bay. urging him to go to Chicago in
the interest of harmony and announc
ing that he would do his utmost in
case of an acceptance to have Mr.
Roosevelt given the privilege of the
convention floor.

TROLLEYMEN VOTE
TO STRIKE At
PITTSFIELO
Step Almost Unanimously Favored
By Members of Union
MEN MAY GO OUT SATURDAY
Berkshire Street Railway Company
viii Be Given Opportunity to Meet
Employees Demands.

The strike vote taken by the Pitts
field trollymens union on Tuesday
were in favor of strike by 323 to
80. The result Of this vote has been
communicated to the international
trollymen's headquarters at Detroit,
Mich, and the sanction OF the inter
national executive committee is await.
ed by the Pittsfeld union
The Berkshire street railway com
pany officials are to be notified of the
vote, and it is likely that they will
be given one more opportunity to
meet the demands of the union before
the strike is declared The union
has promised that it will notify
patrons of the trolly cars of the time of
the strike, if one is called, by ad-
vertisements in the papers, so that
they will not be caught unawares.
1t is not probable that the strike
will be declared before Saturday or
Sunday. The vote is by employees of
the street railway company from
Williamstown to Canaan, CT, and a
strike would tie up all trolly traffic
between those points.

day morning brings to mind that she is
the last survivor of Bennington fam

tury, with the exception of her niece,
Miss Matilda Marley whose life has
been spent with her aunt.
Miss Downs was the daughter of

For many years the Downs family

BELIEF GRO WING
THAT HUGHES IS
TO Be NOMINEE
CirCumstantiaI Evidence FaVOrS
Justice, His Friends Declare
CLAIM 300 ON FIRST BALLOT
Second Ballot Should Show Sufficient
Lead To Assure the Naming of
the Justice.

Chicago, June S.-More political lead
ers were predicting the nomination of
Justice Charles Evans Hughes last
night than at any time since the repub-
lican national convention began to as
semble. They declare that unless
the accumulation of Overwhelming
circumstantial evidence fails to re-
fleet the situation in 'its true light,
the nomination OF the justice will come
even sooner than has been predicted.
The men who take this view are prac-
tical politicians who do not make es.
Inmates unless they are based on care
full canvass of the delegates.
The situation is illustrated best by
the fact that conferences between
leaders to discuss the availability of
different candidates virtually have
ceased, indicating their belief that a
majority OF the delegates already
have reached a decision to name Jus.
tice Hughes. Convention observers
find it impossible not to be impressed
by the confident predictions Of these
leaders, who say that the Hughes
boom now has grown to such for.
midable proportions that Col. Roose
welt no longer holds the veto power
which until yesterday afternoon had
been conceded to him as part of the
program to bring the republican and
progressive parties into accord
The Hughes managers last night re
peated their claim that he will have
about 900 votes on the first ballot
| Frank II. Hitchcock, spokesman foI
| the Hughes followers, said there would
/, be no attempt to nominate the justice
On the first ballot and that it was theii
desire to have all the favorite-son del
| egates deliver their complimentary
| votes. He believed, however. that the
| second ballot, with the release OF
many delegates from their obligations
would swell the Hughes vote to sucf
| proportions that his nomination woulC
almost certainly be made on the thirC
ballot, Many of the Hughes support
ers were even more optimistic ant
said they thought that before the re
suit of the second ballot was aunounc
ed the drift would be apparent to al
delegates and there would be enough
changes OF votes to bring a nomina
tion on the second ballot.
