May Be Held with Cutters

Quincy, Mass. March members of
the Granite Manufacturers association
of Quincy, last night gave the committee
which has ben representing them in con
ference with the workers in the indus
try vote of confidence, and also full
power to act for them in an effort to
settle the strike now on here. No con-
ference has been held between the repre-
sentatiyes of the manufacturers and the
strikers since the men quit work We'd
nesday, when the old wage agreement ex
pired. New wage agreements have been
drawn up for workers in all the branches
of the industry, but none of them can
go into effect until the question of how
long they shall run has been settled. The
strikers demand either three-year or a
five year agreement The manufacturers
want the new agreements to run four
years, at the end of which time present
wage agreements at Barre, Vt, and other
places will expire. A meeting between
the two sides win probably be held in
day or two.

BERNSTORFF GETS
APPAM DECISION
Contents Withheld at German Request
Pending Action of the
Courts.

| Washington, ID. c., March 3.The state
| department yesterday sent to Count Won
/ Bernstorff, the German ambassador, its
decision in the case of the British liner
Appam, which was captured by Ger
man raider and brought into Hampton
Roads in charge Of prize crew. An
nouucement of the contents will De with
| German government, pending a decision
in the libel action brought by agents of
the original British owners in the federal
court at Norfolk.
Consequently, the court win be allowed
to interpret the Prussian. American
treaty, which is claimed by Germany to
provide that German prize may remain
in American waters indefinitely, with inn
munity from legal proceedings instituted
by the original owners in an attempt to
regain possession of the ship. In await
ing the Interpretation of the treaty by
the courts. the state department is act
ing in accordance with precedent.
The executive branch of the govern
ment always has refrained from inter

HER MONEY MISSING.
And Body of Mrs. Karl Perry of Spring
field Found in Locked Room,

Springfield, March 3.-Alrs. Karl Perry
about 35 years old, was found dead from
gas asphyxiation in the bath room of her
apartments in the DIR. b. A. Chapman
residence on Summer street late yester-
day afternoon. Her body was discovered
by Mr.. Perry, who is employed by the
Jones & Lamson Machine Co., on his re-
turn home. Not finding his wife in the
living apartments, Mr.. Perry investi-
gated and found the door TO the bath
room locked. The door was forced and
the woman was found upon the floor,
where she had fallen, breaking her
glasses and cutting her face.
No cause can be assigned for the wom-
ans act, If it was premediated as il is
generally believed, except that she had
been somewhat despondent because of i'll
health. The burner on a gas range and
on a gas fixture used for Lighting were
open when the woman was found.
Mrs. Perry was the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. G. K. Upper of Bakersfield. She
was graduated from Brigham academy
in the class of 1900. Besides her parents,
she is survived by her husband, three
brothers, Charles f. Tupper of Barre,
Royal, of Bakersfield and Herbert G..
Tupper of Springfield, and two sisters,

has not been found, though a search has
been made for it.

And 345 Changes, All Told,
Were Made for Barre
Voters ...,....
LAST SESSION WAS
ATTENDED BY D151SH
Many NaturaIize 4 Citizens
to Vote for 7 Time
Next T ! day

Judge j. II. Watson's opinion, in which
other members OF the supreme court con,
CURED, doubtless quickened activities
among the delinquent taxpayers here in
Barre, for the influx of persons anxious
to get their names on the checklist was
unusually large for the last meeting of
the board of civil authority +. G. How
land presided at the session last night,
which was held in the court room at city
hall, and in total of IS changes ordered,
there were 80 new names. Previously,
an aggregate of les names had been add
ed in two meetings of the board and that
that number should be augmented by as
many as 80 was a matter of remark. it
was thought.
In three meetings of the board. held
for the sole purpose of preparing the
checklist for use on election day, exactly
80 changes have been authorized. Addi-
ti6ns rather than transfers from one
ward to another We're predominant, as il
the case usually although the proportion
of new names is seldom as large. In the
main, this increased proportion is traced
to the naturalization courts. where many
aliens have been admitted to citizenship
since April /, 1915. Then, too, the su-
preme court decision, extending the fran
chise on state issues to delinqueEts,
brought out many hom election day
had previously promised to affect but
little, inasmuch as they were thought to
be deprived by their delinquency from
voting on local issues. All told, there
are to be 2l5 names on the checklist this
ysar that were never there before. Apart
from that class of new citizens who have
qualified under the naturalization act,
there is, perhaps, more than the usual
number of young men who have attained
5heir majority since April /, 1915.
After session no less busy, if not
quite so prolonged as the two previous
meetings, the board adjourned last night
1ntil 5 o'clock Tuesday morning. The
justices of the peace were ap-
pointed to administer the oath to ward
,fficers in the various polling places on
he morning of election day: Ward |,
4. A. Sargent; ward 2 James f. Hig-
rms; ward 3, w. d. Smith; ward d. w.
T. Blackmore; ward 5, Stephen Rizzi;
yard g. James Mackay. Meanwhile, the
evised checklists have been handed over
o the printer and practically the last
pportunity for registering has passed.
The total checklist is 2,062 gain of
6 over last year.
