Joseph Jones of Rutland, attorney for
man named Warner, who is under his
sentence TO be electrocuted at the state
prison next month, has approached Gov.

OF sentence, but as far as could be
learned this morning. nothing has yet
grown out of the matter for there is
no record Of it in the governors office
at the State House.
Gov. Clement was at his Office in Mont
pelier to-day, having driven his automo-
bile last evening after attending the
meeting Of the board of control at Wind
sor yesterday. This afternoon he left
for Middlebury, where he will attend the
commencement of Middlebury college.
The board Of control, after its inspection
of the state prison at Windsor yester
day, authorized the repairs on the boiler
plant, and the extension of the electric
lights to the farm MS well as the con-
struction of the refrigerator, all of which
were done under the special act of the
legislature They did not reach the de-
cision on the woman's dormitory; the APP
preparation appeared to be too small for
the demand.

PROHIBIT STRIKE MEETINGS
Following Riot at Waterbury, Conn
Last Evening.

Waterbury, Conn, June 20.--No more
police under a ruling made by Supt.
George M. Beach of the police depart
ment to-day. Yesterday permission was
given for meetings under certain restrie-
tions but in view of last nights riot a
firm hand will be kept on the situation.
There were no disturbances during the
night. Every officer, total Of 200, was
on duty, and the city guard patrolled
the Brooklyn section all night
Search was made for more men and
women who are thought to have been
active participants in the rioting in
which Patrolman John Moore was hurt.
His condition at the hospital this morn
ing was reported to be very serious.
The police authorities expressed belief
to-day that not only had they full con
troll but doubted if there would be any
further serious breaches.
John Ernesky, 30, and Alex Drumac
were arrested during the morning on
the charge of assault with intent to kill,
and the police say that evidence against
both men is such as to indicate that they
were in the group and active in the
scrimmsge which brought down Patrol
man Moore, who was struck by stone
and clubs
In the city court 30 persons charged
with breach of the peace and assault
with intent TO kill were each held in
$4,000 bonds for hearing later, and
nine persons were each held in $1,000 on
similar charges. Risal Alike was fined
500 for carrying gun The police are
theoretically searching the Brooklyn dis
triet for certain persons who are said to
have been recognized among the disturb
ers

CITY COUNTS VACANT LOTS.
Responsibility for Unimproved Property
Assumes Added Importance.

Owners of unimproved lots in Ameri-
can cities have suddenly found them
selves more or less accountable for the
shortage of houses now so acute in all
parts of the country
According to reports received from
Kenosha, Wis, the various city com
mittees, which are working with the
commerce and the manufacturers asso-
citation, recently held a conference in the
mayors office, at which a plan to en-
courage building on vacant property was
freely discussed. 1t was estimated that
at least 500 unimproved lots could be
found on streets with water supply and
sewer connections To convince the
owners of these lots that it is their
civic duty to build was decided to be the
first logical effort. In cases where lack
of money prevented needed improve
ments the suggestion was made that

GERMANY WITHOUT A FRIEND
Nation Stands Alone In the World,
Seemingly With No One to Mourn
for Her.

One cannot help wondering what
could have been the emotions OF the
German agents In Spain when they
read the dispatch sent by King Alton
so TO President Poincare. Those
agents have worked hard through oil
these years OF the war and spent money
lavishly TO make and keep Spain the
friend Of Germany. They can claim
with some show OF truth to have kept
her neutral, but now In the day OF
Germany's humiliation, she gets no
sympathy from the Spanish king. In
stead he telegraphs TO the French
president enthusiastic congratulations
on the victory Of the allies, and calls
the result achieved the reaching OF
"the end OF this glorious epic Of the
French army and nation, which have
shown us ALL" he adds, what bravery
and patriotism mean
Alfonso says ms ALL" md no Span
lard protests, so they must join not
only in the kings felicltation Of Ger
many's enemy but also IN the implied
denial that Germany has shown any
body what bravery and patriotism
mean.
Another failure, therefore, must be
scored against German diplomacy and
propaganda. Is it the hundredth or
the thousandthl-New York Times.

HIGH-CLASS WOMEN WRITERS
Fair Sex Has Taken a Prominent
place in Literature, and in the
Production of Plays.

Further signs Of the emancipation"
Of women are seen on the covers ~
now books and magazines. The names
Of women authors. except In the case
OF war books, where the women are
at disadvantages seem TO outnlmher
the men. In no class Of writing are
the women unreprescnted. For many
years women have been writing nov
els and doing good job Of it more
than occasionally, as readers Of Jane
Austen, George Eliot, the Brontcs ard
others less known VIII bear witness.
Among contemporaries there are per-
haps as many women novelists from
whom q ssillful and high-class work
can he expected as there are men.
Until a few years ago the woman
playwright was more or less a rar-
ity. Looking back over the history Of
the theater It win be difficult for the
average person to recall single fem
mime name that stands out promi-
ncntly through connection with the
making Of PLAYS. Last year several

INK plays seen were by women writer's.
Names OF women dramnfsts on Broad
way heatcr signs are almost as com.
mon as those OF men.

FIRST CLEAN UP THE MESS
British Majors Attitude on the War
Typical Of Most OF the Soldiers
"OVer There"

Generalship. heard a chief Of stan
at the front once say. Is three-Quartcrs
a knowledge Of the mood, the condi-
ton and the character Of your men.
For week | travelled the British
front with Il grlzzled major OF High
land regiment, who had been IN the
game since 1914. We lunched one day
with a mingled group of field and in
telligence officers, a Belgian on liaison
work and visiting French captain.
The talk. which was chiefly upon spe-
cialues beyond the range of war, made
one fact cvident-the world Of civilian
life was more interesting than ever
before to these men. They were pas
siouately DESTROYS TO get back. to
"clean UP the mess" there, to go on
with their broken careers.
How do you stay 50 keen on your
job here" / asked the major, after
ward. "when you are more weary Of
war than they are at homer"
He flushed d little, British fashion.
"Have TO clean up this mess. FIRST" he
answered.
A week later one Of the most Iowa
Bile boys have ever known (hc was
killed a week later) stood By his Nieu-
port on the American front, talking
TO me before a fight.
81 don't think much Of the danger"
he said. though | don't forget 1t. It's
all part of the game.'-Harper's Mag

Americas Tin Industry.

While the unitel States has at
tanned n commanding position in the
tin plato export trade. it by no means
equals that which England had before
the war; Data show that while our
exports Of tin plate have grown from
$500 tons in 1913 TO more than 23S,-
600 tons in 1917, they even now are
less than 30 per cent Of England's be-
fore the war, and only 30 per cent
more than that country's present ex-
ports.
VIII this country ever have = I'm In
iustry of its own? asks the Phuadel-
phia Inquirer. The American tin-melt.
ing industry IS still in the childhood
stage. Ore supplies in Bolivia. in
South America, are believed 10 b.
large, but Bolivian producers are md
ing conditions here unsatisfactory FOR
doing business. Only the future Gnu
tell whether any relief Is possible from
this source.
