SHARPLY IN PRICE

The spring fur sale in London
showed a sharp advance in certain
varieties of skins, according to the re-
port of Consul General Robert P. Skin
ner which says:
THE American buyers purchased
freely of the finer furs, but the main
support came from the home trade.
Orders from France were small, buy
ers therefrom being unable to at
tend.
Compared with the January, 1918,
sale, Australian opossum declined 20
per cent; fox, red Australian, sold
readily at an advance of Is per cent.
Compared with the spring sale, of
1917, black bear rose 80 per cent.
and brown and white so per. cent.
Mink advanced 20 per cent. Kolinsky
rose 40 per cent as did civet scat.
Beaver advanced 100 per cent, but
prices did not reach those obtained in
the winter sale. For gray fox the
demand slaokc ned, but old prices were
per cent. Squirrel rose go per cent.
and mole 20 per cent; for the latter
there was keen competition. White

COUNSEL ASK
FOR ACCOUNTING

Counsel for Mrs. Kate Ifeberum
have petitioned the Superior Court for
an accounting of the rents received
from the property at Water and State
streets, which is in dispute in the suit
brought by Mrs. Lieberum against
Jennie NussenIbaum for $4,000 dam
ages. The claim advanced by Mrs.
Eeberum is to the effect that she
was misled by Mrs. Nussenbaum when
the property was sold.
Under the agreement made the
price to be paid was s67,264 and the
rate Of payment was 81, 900 cash and a
mortgage Of $57, 900 to be repaid at the
rate of $1,000 a year for 81 years.
Damages were asked for on the
ground that Mrs. Lieberum thought
the mortgage was payable. on demand
and alleges that she would not have
paired with the property had she not
SO understood the terms Of sale.

$4,000 TO CAIN
THROUGH AWARD
OF LABOR BOARD

Considerable progress was made
yesterday in the hearings on the wage
award before the Taft Walsh board
in the Superior Court room of the
County Court House yesterday. Both
sides presented a great deal of data
and it became evident that the final
decision Of the board would affect a
great deal more workers than the 10
per cent. who were first directly con-
cerned in the controversy.
The heads of the greater portion
of the industries of the city placed
with the board signed pledges that all
of their workers will be paid in &C
cordance with the decision of the
board. This will bring the number Of
men up to inthe neighborhood Of 5O,-
900 and it is hoped that 1t will settle
all difficulties for the duration of the
war and will no doubt go far toward
keeping relations between employers
and employees free from all strife for
@ long period of time.
Great Importance attaches to the
decision of the board and the matter
of the classification of the men is one
of the chief bones Of contention, The
counsel for the manufacturers pro-
posed that the hearings be adjourned
until July Is in order to give them
more time to go into the matter of
the necessary classifications. This
provoked considerable discussion as
the counsel for the machinists said
that they had worked night and day
to prepare their facts.
At this juncture a note was read
by Fred Hewitt, editor of the Ma
chinists' Journal, to the effect that
If adjournment was taken machines
would be needed TO keep the men in
the plants. This aroused argument
and effort was made to find out who
had written the message but to no
avail.
Figures were read to show the in
creases in wages received by the men
in the u. M. c. and Remington plants
and it was stated that they are higher
than in other cities. Attorney Wal
lace, speaking for the Remington Co.,
stated that the enforcement of the
Rogers award would destroy the basic
principles of the plant. Each new
order that comes to that plant brings
a new classification. He emphasized
the fact that production is the greatest
issue.

MATINEE EXCURSIONS,

The special matinee excursions on
the steamer Park City, 1870 p. M, are
more popular this season than ever
before. The residents of Bridgeport
and vicinity are taking advantage of
this very pleasant outing. There is
no short trip that embraces so many
advantages at a moderate expense as
this invigorating sail across the
Sound to the quaint ship building
town of Port Jefferson. The steam
er leaves the wharf at the foot of
Fairfield avenue at 1880 o'clock, re-
turning leaves Port Jefferson at 4:30,
arriving in Bridgeport at o'clock.
Thus you can enjoy three hours on
the Sound and one hour and thirty
minutes on Long Island. If you have
not taken the trip you should GER
tainly do so at as early date as pos
sible.-Adv.

DIFFICULT FIRE
ATMILLER PLANT

Fireman John Willis of No. 8 En-
CINE house, was slightly injured while
fighting the fire which broke out in
the Frank Miller Lumber Co.'S plant.
East Washington avenue, a few min
utes before o'clock last night. A
number of steel sltvers entered his
hand when he grasped a steel cable
and it was necessary for the fireman
to be terated at the Emergency hos
pital.
1t was only after hours of work
with shovels that the firemen were
able to get to the blaze and extin-t
guish it as they had to hack their
way through veritab1e mountains of
material before they could get to the
bottom of huge saw dust pile which
had caught fire. The sprinkler sys-
tenn installed in the shop had put out
the remainder of the fire.

Y. M. G. A. FENCING.

The new gymnasium at the Y was
filed with men in their white uni
forms and shining weapons. Till very
late in the evening they fenced over
and over again as they all wanted to
have that endurance necessary for
competition fencing and most of them
did fine work. Also the honor of not
being defeated made each bout last
pretty long.
When Leandre Strandt appeared in
the gym all waited in turn to fence
with him because he is one of the
most skilIful and they wanted to try
their ability Very few succeeded in
defeating him.
DR.. William Duclos had an inter-
esting match with DR.. E. L. Meier
fridge. Both were on the alert from
beginning to the end.
John KERN and Edward Arthur did
not like to give UP their bout because
it was difficult to find the real best
man Both are making good.
Morris Meyers and Lincoln Weld
attracted the attention of all for Mey-
ers is a left hand fencer and despite
his late start is one of the fencers who
have shown the greatest endurance
and he will give good account of
