TWO MORE FALL RIVER

Fall River. Mass. Oct. 22.-Two
more local concerns, the Anawan mills
and the ERGO company announced to-

will be reduced to the extent of 20
per cent, in the case of the Anawan
mills and approximately Is per cent

hands. The Anawan is waste mill.
in which some 200 operatives are EN-.
ployed. The reductions go into effect
at both plants next Monday, Oct 25,
and the managements say the EN-
ployes have agreed to accept the new
schedule rather than face a complete
shutdown.
The same reasons for the wage re-
ductions is advanced by the officials of
both companies, inability to continue
operating unless at a loss unless pro.
duction costs were reduced. Labor.

is one OF the big items to-day in the

proposition was submitted TO the oper.

Westminster, Mass, Oct 22--Rev
Burton S. Gilman, 56, died suddenly on
Wednesday while driving an automo-

II is believed that Mr.. Gilman suf
fered an attack of heart failure. The
machine left the road and struck a

Rev. Mr.. Gilman had been actively
engaged as a farmer since last March
when he retired after serving for %
years as pastor of the First Congre-

LIQUOR UNDER BARN FLOOR.
Big Seizure Made at Home of Lee
Chase In, Canaan.

Burlington. Oct 22,- Yesterday the
office OF the internal revenue depart
ment was notified of seizure of about
81 900 worth OF contraband liquors at
the home OF Lee Chase, whose farm is
on the Canaan road in Canaan. The
liquors were concealed under the barn
floor and in bransacks concealed among
the trees in the woods nearby. Chase,
who has been arrested once before on a
charge of handling liquor illegally, was
taken before Commissioner Clary in
Newport and placed under bonds of
81 600. in default of which he was
locked up in Newport Jail
The government officials swooped
down on Chase's place about o'clock
Wednesday afternoon and caught him
unawares. II is the opinion of the gov
ernment men that Chase has offered
relay place for the use OF smugglers as
he is ideally situated on the main road
from Colebrook, n. H., to the Canadi-
an border.
He has been under surveillance for
some time and on Tuesday a member
OF the government force purchased
sl20 worth of whiskey from him. Yes
terday the officials were certain that
thAre was g good-sized stock of liq-
,ior on hand and went through the
premises in a thorough manner The
barn floor was torn up and there re-
posed several hundreds of bottles of
whiskey. gin and brandy The whis-
key was Canadian club, Imperial and
other weIl-known Canadian brands.
There was some Gordon, Geneva and
other brands Of gin and few bottles
of brandy. In the woods still more liq-
uor was found.
II is likely that Chase will be tried
on two charges; having illegal posses
sion of intoxicating liquor and selling
liquor Illegally.
