WHY THEY CARRY.

An explanation for the large amounts of money carried by for eigners on their person is given by Captain Edward Cronan of the local police detective bureau. He cites the case of Michael ShulIer and Andrew Pinnent, Hungarians, residing at 91 Johnson street.
 These men were depositors of the Trans Continental Trust Co, an alien enemy corporation taken over by the government during the war. Since taking control of the company the government has re- imbursed all depositors. The Hun- garian depositOrS. since receiving their money. refuse to deposit the cash in local banks, intending to go back to Hungary as soon as transportation can be arranged.
 Michael ShulIer placed his S2.- 900 into a trunk along with a roll of S2,1OO the property of Andrew Pirnent. The trunk and contents were owned by the two friends. Michael carried the keys and worked nights. while Andrew worked days. In this manner the trunk was guarded day and night. Tho money was counted daily. Yesterday, Michael discovered that his roll contained only g. 500. The police are wondering if somebody did not try to balance the hold ingS.

The statement of the Grand Duchess charges Frederick William with cruelty to his wife, saying:
 "On one occasion some time ago the situation became so unbearable that my daughter actually fled from her home. She almost succeeded in reaching Switzerland. Orders were sent from Berlin to intercept her and she was captured at the German frontier like a common criminal and taken to their line under arrest.
 My daughter will be able to place before the German court overwhelm- ing evidence against her husband and will be able to prove against him many instances of the grossest cruel tv His inhdelities were numerous and there is abundant proof of them. His brutality was atrocious. On one more than occasion my daughter was treated with actual violence. She was bruised and her face was dtstigured py her husbands blows"
 Berlin despatches hy way of Zurich on February said that Frederick William had instituted proceedings for a divorce, but there have been no further reports on the case. The former Crown Prince and Princess CeciIe were married in June. 1905. The pair have five children, the youngest having been born in 1915. The former Crown Prince Is now in exile in Holland. His family has re- Inaiued at Fotsdam.
 The former Grand Duchess Anas- taste was a grand duchess Cf Russia before her marriage. Since the wal she has been living in Switzerland She renounced her German nation alitv and renewed her allegiance tc Russia late in 1914.

WINIFREDIAN IS NEARING BOSTON,: 1O2 M. 6. HOME Wire From Boston Says Transport Will Arrive
 Tonight or Friday. PATRICIA DOCKED
 WITH 26TH VETS Big Welcome for Machine Gun Unit When They
 Reached Boston.

Boston, April 17--More units of the Yankee division reached here today They arrived on the naval transport Patricia in q driving rain storm. The Patricia had hardly poked her nose through the fog at the entrance of the harbor at noon before she was surrounded by a fleet of small boats bearing relatives and friends and members of official greeting commit tees.
 The units aboard the Patricia in cIuded the 1O2nd and 1o3rd Machine Gun Battalions, composed largely ot former members of the old First Vermont Infantry regiment; the 101st Field Signal Battalion. a Boston or ganization. and several smaller de tachments. Also on board were casual companies from Massachusetts and regular army, besides a special casual company composed of men from various branches of the service making 8 total of 2,S12 officers and men.
 Members of the Massachusetts and Boston welcoming committees were there to greet the men from this state.
 A particularly warm welcome was extended by the Vermont delegation to members of Company D of the 103rd Machine Gun Battalion, for 50 per cent. of the vermont men cited for bravery during the war were members of this company, made up largely of votes of St. AIbans. The 103rd had its hardest fighting in the Xivray sector in June, 1918.
 Colonel William J. Neville of Bos- ton, commander of the 101st Amnuni- ton Train, was in charge of the troops returning on the Patricia, al though his own organization was not on board.
 The Winifredian with others Of the Beth Division was following the Pa tr1cia and If not delayed by weather conditions was expected to reach here tonight or early tomorrow. The ar rival of the Patricia today wSH un- looked for, army officials having ex- pected the Winifed1an to get to port first Both sailed from Brest on April g.

NO CHANGE;
 PRICES WILL
 TAKE EFFECT
Harry Walker Not Much Disturbed by the Idea Mayor May Build Ice .
 Plant.

Harry Walker of the Bridgeport Ice Delivery Company, Naugatuck Valley Ice Co, etc, said today that there was no change in the situation in this city and that the prices announced would go in effect according to schedule.
 MT. Walker maintained that he could see no need of him making a statement as in his original statement to the newspapers he had explained the ways and wherefores of the cause of an increase in price.
 He intimated that nothing had occurred to change conditions and seemed doubtful about the ability of New Haven to establish an ice plant on $25.000 or sell ice at 50 cents a hundred except at the stations
 While he didn't say so, it was evi- dent from the short converse ton which a representative of the Times Farmer had with MT. Walker today, that Mayor Clifford B. Wilson up un- til a, few days ago hadn't thought very seriously about erecting 6 muni- cipa1 ice plant. Whether Ills Honor has given more thought to the mat ter in the past A hours Is doubtful due to his trip to Boston.

 Here.

Boston, April 17.---The expected ar ricaI here today of John C. Rooms, first assistant postmaster general and chairman of the wire control board. gave some hope of a speedy adjust ment of the strike of telephone work CTS which started Tuesday when young women operators in all the New England states except Connecti- cut walked out. Yesterday the cable splicers joiIed the operators. and, to- day q strike of electrici&e which leaders claimed involved F, GOO men in g unions became effective.
 Miss Teresa Sullivan, Eastern or sanizcr of the Telephone operators, saiI this noon that there would be no strike in the Connecticut exchang ges unless there was an attempt to take operators from this state to act as strike breakers in other states where the girls are out. The local union will hold a meeting to take a vote on , the strike proposition tonight and if ! 1t is favorable to a strike the de- mIuds of the operators will he for mally presented to the officials of the company before a strike is declared.

ALLIES TO INSIST ON DEFINITE REPLY
LAUNCHING OF THE SERIES ,r

Hope" there won't be a bad omen as there was at the last one" was remarked in the crowd that came to witness the launching of the fifth ship at the Housatonic ship yards, Stratford, this after noon.
 You know the last ship when she struck the water, turned her bow up stream. That's bad sign. The sailors say she'll never get far from home when she turns her nose towards land the first time she hits water.
 At the first launching they didn't pull the cord hard enough to break the bottle, and so the ship did not get her taste of wine as she left the ways. The men be- low grabbed the bottle and drank the wine, but that did not take the curse off the ship.
 There was no hard luck this time. Mrs. Ethyl Munson, vie of George W. Munson, Jr., superin- tendent of the shipyard was spon- sor, and she saw to 1t that the bottle broke and the ship turned SeaWard when she struck the waters of the HousatoniC
