New Haven, June 12,-A decision from the arbitrators in the wage dis pute of trolley men with the Con- nectcut company is expected today. It was at first looked for during the morning but at noon it was stated that the liklihood was that the de- cision would be made known in the afternoon.
 A report was current Saturday that the decision would be an per cent cut in wages but today there was nothing to confirm the report.
 It was thought this afternoon that the decision would not be made known until late, giving the trolley men an opportunity to hold meet ing before the decision was. made public generally.
 Delay in making public the decision is said to have followed the question of Mir. Nahey, arbitrator for the men, who asked that the employees have a chance to receive it in meetings this evening.

She became frightened and dropped her candle against the veil of the girl in front of her and that also caught fire. The flame from this ignited to the one in front, and it seemed for an instant that every one of the girls wells would catch fire in the excite ment.
 Several of the men in the congre- gation rushed to the aid of the chil- dren. and put out the flames without the children suffering any serious burns, although each one had her hair singed, but the mothers and fathers of the children who were in the pro- cession, fearing that his or her child was one of those who was in danger, began to rush to the front of the church.

Excitement at St. Peters, Church
 When Girls KeiLs Catch on Fire
Four Children in First Holy Communion Procession
 Slightly Snged-Prompt Action Averts Panic

What might have been a terrible disaster was averted at St. Peter's S church yesterday morning by the pres ence of mind of several of the male communicants in pulling the clothing from several little girls when it had become ignted from candles they were carrying. This prompt action, and the calm attitude of Rev. Charles Coppens, undoubtedly prevented a panic. As it was, while four of the little girls had their hair singed, none was badly burned.
 The accident occurred at the 8 o'clock mass when the veis of four Of the little girls, who were carrying lighted candles in a First Holy Com munion procession, caught fire. There were about 150 children taking part in this ceremony and they were proceed ing down the isle, when the flame from one of the candies was seen to ignite the f1imsy veil which one of the little girls was wearing.
 One of the men present rushed to the child and in the commotion that ensued, the little girl in front turned

WHAT CAN YOU GIVE TO FRESH AIR CAMP
Annual Appeal for Worthy Cause Made to People
 of City

The New Britain Herald today starts it's annual appeal to the people of the city for sufficient funds to make possible the maintenance of the Fresh Air camp at Burlington, an ap- peal which has been answered most generously in the past and which we hope will be as generously answered this year. The Fresh Air camp, its methods and its good work, is well known to New Britainites and shojld be well supported. All of the funds come from subscriptions by individ uals and organizations, its work Is among the children of the city who are in need of vacation in the coun- try to build up sturdy bodies for the strain of winter. The camp is not planned for children who are ill, but for those who might become ill., whose reserve strength is not great and who will be immensely fortified by the time out of doors. From standpoint of human economy the camp is a great asset to the city, it undoubtedly wards off many times what might prove to be serious illnesses in the younger generation. From a stand point of sentiment--it gives to many children a good time in the open which they could not otherwise have.
 The Fresh Air camp will open a week from next Thursday, June 22nd, when the first installment of visitors, 65 girls, will be transported to the city property in Burlington. From then on until August 1 girls only will be guests of the camp. The number to be entertained will remain the same weekly. the individuals will change every two weeks It is hoped that 800 children will be given the outing. two weeks at q time. during the summer. After August 1 and con tinuing until September l, the boys will be taken into the country.
 The number to be taken care of this year will be larger than formerly and another farmhouse has been fixed up to accommodate the extra visitors "Millstones,' which was open last year, will room some of the visitors "f3rooksde" will accommodate the re mainder.
 The committee in charge has pro- ceeded with the plans for the camp despite the fact that the necessary money for conducting it is not on hand Confidence in the public ap- proval of the institution is great and
