QUESTION AS TO
 GENERAL STRIKE

Butte, Mont, Feb. S.--The question as to whether a general strike in all industries of this city shall be de- clared at once as a protest against the reduction of wages in the copper mines of this district was expected to be determined today. At two mass meetings last night, said to have been called by the industrial workers of the world, resolutions were adopted calling for a general strike. Another mass meeting was set for this morn ing, at which demands of the miners were to be formulated and later pre- sented to the mining companies.
 The mass meetings last night were called following notice of a reduction of one dollar a day in the wages of miners, the reduction being based on the price of copper and made in &C., cordance with an agreement with the old Western Federation of Miners several years ago. Skilled miners now are receiving under the cut s4.75 per day. Reports today showed 1, 400 min CTS out at several big mines.
 The engineers union of the inter national union of mine-mill and smell ter workers refused to consider any strike action. The engineers union is the largest in Butte.

$21 900, 900 NEEDED
 TO COMPLETE STATE
 TRUNK LINE SYSTEM

Highway Commissioner Charles J. Bennett has informed the legislative committee on roads, bridges and rivers that it would cost $21, 900, 900 to complete the trunk line highway system in Connecticut. This figure does not include the cost of keeping the existing highways in repair in the meantime, about $3,000,O0O a year The information was given in reply to a question from the committee.
 The committee has learned from the commissioner that 1,500 of the 2,200 miles of trunk line highways in the state have been completed and that 700 miles remain to be done, in- dicating that the cost for each mile is estimated to be $30,000
 The figures that the highway de- partment has submitted to the board of finance to be included in the esti- mates for the two years ending Sep tember 80, 1921, provide for the ex- penditure of $7,000,0OO, of which s2,- 100000 will be taken from the re- ceipts of the motor vehicle depart ment and s4,7O0,OOO undoubtedly ap- propriated.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-02-08
HOWELES BOXING BILL EXPECTED TO NET
 STATE A TIDY SUM.

As the Howell boxing bill intro duced into the Hartford IegisIa- ture last week provides that the state receive five per cent. of the total receipts of all boxing shows, 1t is estimated that more than s3O,OOO will be turned in annually to the state comptroller from this source.
 These figures are based on the assumption that the sport be continued in Bridgeport, New Haven. Meriden. Hartford and Waterbury, as it did in previous years, and that several of the smaller cities, like Derby, take advantage of the law which would permit of their holding shows. There are no accurate figures to base the total receipts of the boxing shows given in Bridgeport last year, as the pro- motors as a rule were averse to making public a statement of re- celpts. The new law would compel the filing of a statement with the state comptroller inn mediately after the show. In New Haven the total receipts for nine shows last year was $48,- TOY, which would have meant with a five per cent. tax in order, S2, 435 for the state.
 Meriden is planning a big re- vival of boxing if the bill goes through.

M'QUILLAN TO
 HAVE TRyOUT

A fuIl-fedged peace-time chance to prove his right to labor in baseball as a Brave is now the portion of Pitcher Hughie McQuillen. Hughie had the wartime privilege which car ries less weight in these piping days of reconstruction of big league clubs. He showed enough quality during his brief stay last midsummer to war rant the belief of Chief Stallings the youth is worth another looking over.
 Accordingly an agreement has been reached between the Boston and Worcester clubs to that effect.
 There is nothing strong binding in the arrangement. It is of the same sort as that entered into with Spring field by the locals with respect to Outfelder King. This means that McQuinen will remain with the Braves until May 15, when he must be purchased at price to be nut ually agreed upon or turned back to Worcester.
 The first of next seasons signed contracts are expected today and to- morrow. The contracts all went out by registered mail last week and the return receipts have all been return ! ed with the exception of those Of hthe players living on the Pacific coast.
