JEWETT CITY

During the electric shower early Sat urday evening Lewis A. GiITs house was struck by lightning. MT. Gill lives a mile north of the town on the Hopeville road The fluid entered in the peak of the gable. travelled along the ridge board to the chimney. Here the bolt seemed to split, one part did business in the at tic, played havoc with an iron bedstead and after setting some clothing afire grounded by way of the drain pipe. An other section went down to the living room via the chimney. tore around the kitchen, doing considerable damage. it got into the stove and killed a cat that had fled under it for shelter. This bolt made it's exit via the cellar.
 MT Gill and his wife were able to put out the fire with some difficulty. Tue damage was several hundred dollars.

 Sunday was a bad day for Webster baseball teams, for while the Manhasset nine was trimming the American Woolen team on the Putnam grounds Thomas McDermott's Grosvenordale team was romping away with a victory over the Webster K. of C. team on the North Grosvenordale grounds. The score in this game was to 2. The regular Grosven- ordale lineup was in the field for Man ager Tom, and even though both teams were hitting heavily, the superior field work of the Grosvenordales was enough to clinch the victory for the locals. The Kasey's played good ball but Grosvenor dale played a shade better-and therein lies the explanation of their victory on Sunday Porter played his usual sensa' tional game at short, and handled 10 as sists without an error. He also has one put-out to his credit.

The Paper Wage Negotiations

Leading interests in the paper-mak-
ing industry expect the new wage
agreement will be reached between the
workers and the manufacturers within
the next few days. 1t is believed that
the various locals of papermakers and
pulp and sulphite workers will ratify
the 20 per cent compromise increase
offered by the manufacturers. It is
expected action will be. taken in time
to permit meeting of manufacturers
and union officials to settle the matter
definitely within the next week. Locals
are now voting on the question. AS
soon as they indorse the action Of
their chiefs an agreement will be
drawn dated May 1. running for ona
year. Officials Of the Union Bag and
Paper Corporation have already re-
ceived word that the unions in their
territory have ratified the compromise
terms. Officials Of the International
Paper Company have yet to hear from
their mills. although favorable action
is anticipated. An officer in large
newsprint manufacturing company esti-
mates that if the 20 per cent increase
goes through it will mean an advance
Of between S. and 81 ton in manu-

Distribution of $5,OOO,OOO An.
nonnced; Capital Stock
To BE DOuhled

Directors of the Union Bag and
Paper Corporation declared yesterday
a stock dividend of SO per cent on the
capital stock. A special meeting of
stockholders has been called for May 4
to increase the authorized capital stock
from $l0,000,000 to $20,0O0,O00. The
stock dividend amounts to $5,000,000.
The distribution is expected to be
made some time in May, although no
definite date for payment has been set:
It was stated after the meeting Of the
directors that there is nothing in the
present situation that would lead the
officials to believe that the company
will not be able to continue the present
SO annual dividend on the new stock.
Since the Supreme Court made it's de-
cision early in March declaring divi-
dends in stock non-taxable, distribu-
tions of this character by leading cor
poratlons have a,eo reached eac .e total we'll in

Money and the Market

The real key to the money situation,
IN the opinion Of keen observer Of
market conditions, is supplied by the
extraordinarily high cost involved in
the few new loans SO far arranged for
the current equipment or other capital
needs Of some of the strongest rail-
roads. 1t is believed that while there
are few railroads that may be able
to make similar terms, many more are
in position that will make them will
ing to borrow on materially higher
basis. The need for new money is
acute in many industrial concerns as
we'll. MANY PERSONS" says this OBJ
server, "will we'll recall the rush not
SO many years ago to get in on the
