The three-story Stillnan building in High street, near Broad, is to be mod erniZed, and when the work is completed the building front will compare favorably
 with the new granite building of the
 Washing ton Trust company adjoining, and
 add to the appearance of the business section. Changes are to be made on the second and third floors, but the most mo-
 tieesble changes will be OH the ground
 floor, which is occupied by the stores of
 Ira B. Crandall, Vars Brothers and Will
 liam T. Goodgeon. New fronts of the most modern type will be placed in each
 of these stores. It is planned to have
 the improvements made with the least
 possible inconvenience to the tenants.
 John D. TrAggis, who recently purchased
 the three-story corner building adjoining the Stilfmaa building, contemplates im- proving that building soon. These im- provements will mean an extension of the civic center of Westerly.
 The Briggs building, corner of Main street and the bridge, built on spiles in the Pawcatuck river. on the Westerly \ side. which has been gradually settling. as spile would be removed occasionally by the strong tide and the banging of float l ing ice. is being strengthened at the I foundation, so that now there is no dan ger of the three-story wooden building | toppling over into the Pawcatuek. Since 1 the Broad street dam has been carried away, the velocity of the water at that point has materially lessened, and makes
 much less difficult the work in the water
 under the building. With the dam, the
 water was about eight feet high, while now it runs from two to three feet. Iron l caissons are being substituted for some of the spiIes and as these are filled with l cement they will endure as long as they gre required for that service.

BRIDGE MATERIAL.
Continued from Page H.

Shartle, chief of the general staff
headquarters of the northeastern de-
partment at Boston, Office of the de-
partment engineer, reads as follows:
Dear Sir:-Referring to your letter of
April I'd, respecting the construction of
a bridge over the Connecticut river at
Brattleboro, you are perhaps aware that
the department engineer officer was sent
to investigate the matter. His report
setting forth the conditions was re-
ferred to the war department, which.
you understand, would have to approve
any construction of this nature This
report has been returned by the adju-
tant general, approving, on the au-
thority of the secretary of war the
following opinion of the chief of en-
gineers:
1T is my understanding that no au-
| thority of law exists for the use of
government property for other than
| government purposes except where its
use is required to save life or relieve
distress or suffering. If this under
standing is correct, it would seem that
the request of the selectmen of the
town of Brattleboro could not be grant
ed unless legislation specifically au.
| thorizing the use of the pontoon equip
age were enacted, as was done a few
months ago in the ease of West Point
Ga, where the urgency was much great
or than appears to be in this ease
Under these circumstances, the
use of the bridge equipage cannot b
recommended. -

PLANNED GENERAL
STRIKE IN AMERICA
Communists and I. w. w. Were to Stop
Every Industry May Con
spirators Avoid Arrest.

NEW YORK, April 2S.-The collapse of
the railroad strike in the New York re-
gion and the shoulderto-shoulder attitude
of the railroad brotherhoods and manage
ments have defeated what the prophets
of the ''One Big Union planned as the
first real celebration of May /, the birth
day of the Commune. According to re-
ports submitted to the department of JUS
tice and to the New York Police de-
partment the more optimistic of the agl-
tators, the majority of them being cam
outraged Communists, have been predicting
that mot a wheel in any big industry
in America would be turning" Saturday
morning Such state of affairs was sup
posed to obtain for a hours, when, salts
fled that the country was convinced that
the radicals could do as they chose with
labor, the wheels were TO start turning
again
Economic social and political demands
were to be made while this "fair warning
was fresh in the minds of wall street,
! in with the scheme, was to be too scared
to whisper protest.
Absurd as all this may seem, it is but
| meagre hint of the May Day plan as
conceived by the l. w w and the Com
munists The plans were evolved in CHI
cago and propagandists with ample funds
and vocabularies were sent east to line NJ

Of labor.
| No arrests have been made for the sim
pie reason that the agents Of the May day
plan committee have been Just a LITTLE
cleverer than most Of the detectives seek
ing evidence of criminal radicalism. Th'
propaganda has consisted of unsigned Int
erature-dodgers, letters, small stlcker
and the like When directors, propagan
dists and district leaders feared spies am
photographs they abandoned personal con
ferences and used telephones and seldom
the same telephone twice.

Say 1t Divides Rather Than Unites

RUTLAND, April 2S.-The main bust
ness of the closing session of the conven-
ton of Universalist ministers yesterday
morning was to pass the following reso-
luton condemning the Interenurch World
movement
Resolved, that we. the Universalist
ministers of Vermont, cannot ndorse the
present Interchurch World movement be-
cause it divides rather than unites the
Christian forces of the world by refusing
TO admit Episeopalians, Universalists, I'm
itarians and other Christian forces. That
we therefore urge our people ito refuse
to contribute TO the present movement
in any way But that we do urge all
Christian people, regardless of creed TO
unite in a real Interchurch movement for
large action and broader fellowship in the
solution of world problems
Other resolutions indorsing the Muir.

between Unitarians and Universalsts, and
thanking the local church were also adop

Rev G.. f. Fortier proposed plans fol
the convention church, the visitation Of

ings during the summer as a solution
for Vermpnt's problems and the sugges
tons were adopted.

were Rev. w. II. Nichols of Montpelier
and Rev. John l.. Lowe of Boston whC
told Of the proposed pilgrimages to Coco
