STATE ROAD REPAIRS.
Work Now Progressing in Cheshire
County After Delays.

After more or less delay all summer.
work is now progressing satisfactor-
lily on the state roads in this town, al
though the delay in replacing the
bridge on the west side trunk line over
the canal is becoming serious The
same is true on the construction of the
cllvert on the Brattleboro road. which
was washed out early last summer.
The delay on the bridge for the most
part has been due to lack of steel grid
crs. and, on the culvert, because of la
Dor shortage, but more laborers are
now available and it is hoped to have
the work completed in a short time.
Highway work is progressing we'll
throughout the county, with the excep-
ton of Troy. where it will be held up
this fall at the Gulf bridge, where the
Boston G. Maine tracks cross the high
way, for the reconstruction or replace
pent, probably the latter of the iron
railroad bridge. AS Troy was not in
tending to replace the covered high
way bridge between the two bridges
and their approaches at present the
general Improvement will not be much
delayed.
In order to renew the railroad
bridge and its abutmentS, q gang of
bridge men is now putting in a tim
Der trestle across the gulf, which will
be of heavy construction and will car
ry all trains until improvements are
completed. 1t is said that the central
pier of the bridge. which was built a
long time ago, will have to be replaced
The end abutments are in fair eondi-
ton. so far as is known.
The central pier was built in lS47 to
support engines and cars of II to 90
| tons gross weight and not for engines
| of over 100 tons and ears nearly as
| heavy when loaded such as are used
| today. About the time engines of sc

in this locality, reinforcing with con.
crete and heavy iron rods and corne,
plates made for the purpose, on the

| This cement work has carried the
loads ever since, although not designed
to carry weights such as it has beer

of three Children at Barre last Nav,
which begins in Washington county

tentions of Attorney General Frank C.
Archibald of Manchester. who has taken
personal charge of the prosecution. Mr..
Archibald will have associated with him
States Attorney Earl r. Davis of Barre,
who conducted the preliminary inquiry.
, Undoubtedly the Long case will last from
three to five weeks, since great deal
of the evidence is of a circumstantial
character.

torney's fees, the state has assigned J.
Ward Carver of Barre City to defend
him. 1t is expected that Mr.. Carver will
be assisted by Richard A. Hoar and

ENGLISH STRIKE SETTLED.
Some Compromise by Government and
Railroad Employees.

LONDON, Oct. with dramatic sud
denness, Sunday afternoon, it was an
nounced to a knot of persons waiting in
Downing street that the great railway
strike, which appeared to have brought the
country almost to the brink of revolution,
was settled and that the strikers would
resume work as quickly as possible.
The terms of the settlement are in the
nature of compromise. The National
Union of Railwaymen agrees to call off the
strike and the government consents to a
renewal of the negotiations, the continu.
ance of the existing wage scale for another
year, instead of six months as previously
minimum wage of 81 shillings while the
cost of living is 10 percent above the pre-
war level
The settlement was the result of long
conference between a trade union dclega-
ton, including representatives of the Rail
waymen's Union and Premier Lloyd
George and Andrew Bonar Law, in the
amous conference room in Downing street
tprIor to this there was cabinet meeting.
1t is conceded on all sides that the set
tlement is the outcome of the moderate,
but determined, efforts of the executive of
the Transport Workers Federation and
men like Arthur Henderson and John
Robert Clynes, who throughout have set
their faces steadily against the idea of a
sympathetic strike until every possible
avenue of mediation had been explored
