Davison Attempts To Take Possession of
 Lavit's Quarters.

How much did you get from the manufacturers for trying to break this strike? Throw them out! I know you You scabbed in Hartfor d two years ago at Pratt & Whitney's. What are you paid for, our interests or by the manufacturers to look af- ter theirs?'
 The foregoing and other remarks and threats by members of the Ma chinists' union at the headquarters, this morning, caused Sam Lavit to send a hurry call for the police. He told Supt. Redgate that the officers of the Grand Lodge were in his office creating a disturbance refusing to leave and melting the men to vio- lence.
 Sergeant Quinn and four police men soon appeared and while the threats and attempts at force stop ped, the personal remarks continued through the morning. About nine o'clock Secretary Davison of the Grand Lodge with four orga- niverS from other cities appeared at the Machinists rooms. Davison un- folded a paper and asked Lavit if he knew what that was.

The bursting of a water main on North avenue early this morHing, washed away 20 feet of trolley tracks, flooded all cellars in the neighborhood and caused serious damage to property before the pressure was shut off.

 HOME USE-1 PINT IN 10 DAYS FOR ILL.

House bill, reporting the latter as amended by unanimous vote of the full committee.
 Like the House, the Senate subcommittee adopted the plan of having separate sections in the bill to deal with war time and constitutional prohibition.
 The subcommittee left un- changed the House definition of intoxicating beverages as those containing one-half of one per cent or more of alcohol.
 As revised, the bill will not in terfere with storage and personal use of fntoxicants in the homes of individuals.
 Probably the most liberal amendment to the House bill is a provision exempting from pen alties any person "manufacturing intoxica ting cider and fruit juices exclusively for use in his house." This would permit home manufacture of light wines and cider for personal consump-

SUES PROMINENT PHYSICIAN FOR
 'S10,OO0 DAMAGES

Upon the ground that his right arm may have to be amputated be- cause of the alleged careless medical treatment given him by Dr. Fritz c. Hyde of Greenwich Christian s. Hof- man of that borough has brought suit against the surgeon for $10, 900 damages. Dr. Hyde is one of the most prominent physicians in the western part of the state.
 Hoffman claims he engaged pr. Hyde to set broken arm.

Hyde denies the charge of negligent treatment and will contest the case. Papers were filed today in the superior court and are returnable to the September term.

Carnegie g IS I)e ad:
 Aged 85
Steel Magnate Passes Away In Summer Home At
 LenoX, Mass.

Lenox, Mass, Aug. 11-Andrew Carnegie. S5 years old, the steel mag nate and philanthrop died at his Lenox summer home, Shadow Brook" at 7:10 this morning, afte1 an illness of less than three day; with bronchial pneumonia. So sud- den was his death that his daughter. Mrs. Roswell Miller, was unable to get to her fathers bedside before h. died. His wife and private secretary were with him at the end.
 Carnegie had spent most of the summer in LenoX, coming here late in May and up to a few weeks ago enjoyed himself in almost daily fish ing trips on Lake Mahkeenac, which borders his big Shadow Brook es- tate, and in riding about his grounds. He was taken i'll Friday night and grew steadily worse. His advanced age and lessened powers of resistance hastened the end.
 Carnegie came to I4enox to make his home in May 1917 and had spent the past three summers there. He intended to spend his declining days there and when he bought it of Spen- cer B. Shotter, it was announced that MT. Carnegie would spend all of the spring and summer months there. He came up from New York late in May, this year.
 . Carnegie leaves his wife, who was Miss Louise Whitefield of New York and his daughter Margaret who mar ried last April Ensign Roswell Mill CT of New York. Identified so long with the international peace move I1lent, MT. Carnegie was said to have been more severely affected by the world war than most men. It came as a hard blow to him and the cause which he had so close to his heart. N
