terms of the contract he was to receive
a ssalary $4,000 for the first years
work. $500 for the second year and
$4,000 for the third year, and furth-
er that on or about December IL
1914. he was wrongfully discharged by
the defendant and that he is entitled
therefore. to damages of $1,000.
Attorneys Bill and Searls appeared
for Mr.. Wood, they demurring to the
complaint, claiming that it was a con-
dition precedent to the contract that
Mr.. Meissner was to have TO have the
position and salary provided that Mr.
Wood purchased the mill; that plain
tiff did not alIege that defendant die
purchase the property, and that until
that was done there was no contract

nectioE with his efforts to get pos

ALL MILK FOR PROVIDENCE
Producers to Send No More to Boston
Market After April LIST.

Danielson milkmen should worry
over whether the Boston contractors.
who have been getting their milk all
winter renew the contract on terms
favorable or otherwise before next
Saturday, the first of April. This
applies not only to Danielson, but as
well to shippers in all of this immedi-
ate territory.
1t was announced Tuesday that milk
producers have contracted with the
Shore Line Electric Railway company
| to run a milk car early every morning
from Dayville and Danielson to East
Killing, from which place the milk
| will be forwarded to Providence, in
stead of going into Boston, as at pres
/ ent, and for years past.
1t is understood that the milkmen
have pledged 80 jugs a day to start
| If this applies to 20 quart jugs, il
| means 1900 quarts day diverted from
