cans took four straight from the Chi cagJ Nationals This playing form was a sharp reversal from the result of the spring series when the National League clubs played just previous to the opening of the two major league pennant races.
 In the minor league the majority of the flag struggles were reasonably close and there were less financial difficulties and disrupting of leagues than was the case a year ago. Among the circuits that confined their sche dules to one season the winning club of the Eastern League showed the highest percentage when New London finished with S6 games won and 34 lost for total of TIT.
 More leagues than usual divided their seasons into two parts and in some cases the winner of the first portion of the season met the victor of the second half in a play-off for the championship of the league. This

lodging at a farmhouse. There was
compensation for his rather disap-
pointed ideas Of the evening previous
as he viewed the general ensemble
the next morning. The air was bFac-
ing, the sleepy aspect of the village
suggested rest and peace. He came
across a grizzled old man mending a
fence.
Pretty little town you have here,
remarked Wallace. -
'Mod'rit so" responded the old
man, Stranger"
Why, yes. I've come to spend a
vacation. -
''You'n find it dull, unless you like
fishing. Game all gone long ago."
Rather a peculiar name you give

Wallace, feeling that he had found a

ooh, I seer and Wallace stroked
his chin refectivelyand felt that SEN
timent was at a low ebb in Lovedale.
The inhabitants of Lovedale did
not interest him. They were too busy
too get acquainted with strangers.
There was a touch of romanticism in
his woodland wanderings, however,
that fed his idealistic fancy. This
was the discovery Of a gypsy band,
whose nomadic life he found of in
terest and worthy Of study, and his
chivaIry and compassion were exer-
cised in behalf of a wrinkled old Ro-
many dame who had been arrested
for drunkenness. Wallace paid her
fine and sent her away grateful.
That gratitude found expression.

The gypsy band that had been camp

The speaker was the old Romany

Chicken Poisoner Is
 Fined $100 For Act

Charles Zimmerman of Trumbull, who poisoned a large number of prize chickens on the farm of Robert Mor- ris. was fined s1O0 by Judge Futile in the criminal superior court this af- ternoon. He pleaded guilty to the charge.
 In explaining the case to the court Assistant States Attorney Carter said there was some circumstances which Judge Futile ought to know. Pre- vious to Aug. IA, the day of the crime, Zimmerman had been employ ed on the Morris farm. He complain ed about the quality of the food and as a result of this had a dispute with Morris.
 Zimmerman alleged Morris struck him and injured him so severely that he could not leave his room for sev- eral days. After that Zimmerman nourished a grudge against Morris and poisoning the poultry was his manner of getting his revenge. At torney Garter said he would consent to a fine because he thought there might have been slight provocation for Zimmerman's act.

RICH LAWYER TO
 AID STRIKERS IN THEIR LITIGATION.
William Rubin Here To Espouse Cause of Mold
 CTS Sued by Founders.

William Rubin, known as the lawyer" who employs his time aiding the cause of the underdog, came to this city this morning prepared to take up the fight for the striking holders. whose homes have been attached in a suit by foundrymen.
 Attorney Rubin, who has nation al reputation, held conference this morning with P. F. Duy. organizer of the American Federation of Labor. and Attorney Thomas e. Cullinan. who represented the strigers when several of their number appeared in the city court recently.
 Following the conference it wns announced that the Molders' union has every confidence that the case against defendants is extremely weak. pri- marily because of the principles in- volved and secondly. because of de- velopments since the action was in- stituted.
 A mass meeting of holders will be held tomorrow evening in Rakoczi hall at which Attorney Rubin will de-, liver an address. Organizer Duffy will also speak and John F. Frye. edi- tor of trade magazine. will deliver e few words

LITTLE HOPE OF AVERT|NC GREAT
 STRIKE IN N. Y. Union Leaders Say That Walkout of 100000 Will
 Surely Come. GOMPERS IS ASKED
 TO USE INFLUENCE Attacks on Surface Cars Continue With Arrests of Twenty.

New York, Sept. 20-Despite the att tempted intervention of a committee of business men, there seemed to be littlep respect today of averting a general strike in sympathy with the street railway employees. Labor lead CTS aver that the proposed general wa1kout involves about 100000 work CTS in all trades.
 Throughout the night elevated trains, together with subway trains at points where they run on elevated structures, were subjected to almost ceaseless bombardmentsl of bottles and bricks, car windows being shattered and a number of passengers injured.
 Today there were several attacks by strikers and sympathizers on surface cars and police reserves were repeat edly called out.
 With the arrival here today ot Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, to att tend the funeral of Seth Low, it was learned that the business interests which are endeavoring to avert a sympathetic strike had invited MT Gompers to attend their meeting with labor leaders tomorrow. MT. Gompers held his acceptance of the invitation in abeyance pending talks with union leaders.
 During the forenoon the attacks on surface cars continued internationally In the past 24 hours police reports today indicated, there were arrested 20 men declared Ao be former em- ployes. Fifteen of these are accused of felony in attacks on trains and cars.

When he saw the girl was alone Terambry tried to attack her. but her cries caused him to cease Judge Futile was told Terambry is mentally deficient and on that account the court imposed a comparatively light sentence.

STEVENS GAINS
 UPPER HAND IN
 CANDEE QUARREL
Gets Control of Property and
 Mrs. White is Ordered to Leave Home.
LAWYERS CAREFULLY
 CONSIDERING STEPS
Mrs. White Declares She Has Been Refused Audi
 ence With Mother.

Latest developments in the Fred erick H. Stevens-Harriet c. White controversy over possession of the person and property of Mrs. Sarah B. Candee, widow of the founder of the Bridgeport Daily Standard. seemingly give MT. Stevens the ascendency. It is reported at the former resi- dence of Mrs. Candee, 1249 Fairfield avenue, today that Mrs. Harriet c. White, widow of Daniel White, for mer superintendent of the Chicago public schools, has been busted from the home here and win seek residence elsewhere during thel next few days
 MT. Stevens has secured tempor- ary power from my mother to pos- session of anything he wants here, and I shall have to move" asserted Mrs. White today. She further said:
 MT. Stevens came here last week armed with credentials from my moth CT. We were packing our things. MT. Stevens came into { the house and took quantity of silverware and oth- CT article including even the silver ware with which the table was set for ovr meal. Attorney Carl Foster, my attorney, has instructed me to make no opposition at this time to any act of MT. Stevens"
 James H. Horton, who has been in this city for the past week inves- tigAting the various angles of the con- troversy and who ostensibdy repre- sents Chicago interests allied to the estate of Daniel White, said:
 "A great injustice has been done to Mrs. White. For the past seven years she voluntarily has added to the support of Mrs. Candee whose es- tate is not sufficient for her maint- tainence. Statements have been made which need retraction and acts have been committed which we believe will not be sanctioned in the courts. I am in hopes that the difficulties which ,have. arisen without an appli- mutually adjusted without an appli- cation for a conservator over Mrs. Candee. which yet may be neces- sary.
 "I may say that friends of Mrs. White will spend as much as $10,000 for her vindication in this matter if necessary. I contend that Mrs. Can dee is withheld in New Haven by un- due force. Mrs. White has attempt ed to see her at 120 Cottage street. New Haven, but has been denied even entrance to the abode in which she is staying"
 From a relation of the family his- tory made by Mrs. White to a reporter for the Farmer it would appear that dissension has warped the family since early childhood of Mrs. White and her sister, now Mrs. Stevens. The eliminating episode is said to have been recent interchanges of stock in the Bridgeport Standard. which 1t is claimed have materially reduced the stock holdings of both Mrs Can dee and Mrs. White in that publica- ton.
