oil tanks in the building to de- termine the amount of oil on hand and to report whenever oil was needed, which they supplied. The defendant executors provided this trapdoor for the use of the des fendants McElligott in this con. nection, and the latter instructed
 Irwin to use 1t in entering and leaving the building when making the inspections required. On Oc- tober 2oth, 1884, at about half past two in the afternoon, the plaintiff Campus, in the exercise of due care, was walking along the sidewalk in front of the byild- ing approaching the trapdoor which was closed. Just as he reached 1t, the section further from him was pushed open from below by Irwin, who had been making an inspection of the oil tanks in the cellar pursuant to the instructions above recited, causing Campus to step into the opening 50 made, whereupon the door was let fall upon him, re- cutting in a comminuted fracture of both bones of his left leg just below the knee.
 The court concluded that the defendant executors and the de- fendants McElligotts were jointly liable to the plaintiff Campus and the plaintiff Connecticut Light and Power Company, intervening as his employer under the Work mems Compensation Act, and ren- dered judgment accordingly. The defendant executors have ap- pealed, assigning as errors this conclusion of the court, and the overruling of their claims that no
 negligence upon their part con- tributed to the plaintiff CanapuS injuries, but thata the sole prox- innate cause thereof was the neg- ligence of the defendants McElli- gott, who were independent con. tractors and against whom only, judgment should have been rerl. dered.
 In this case, as in Cole Hs Dur- ham, raising the door involved work of an inherently dangerous character, and doing 50 without warning to pedestrians constituted negligence. What the court said in that case (p. 300) may well be said of this one: If the work to be done is dangerous only by req son of the absence of proper care of doing 1t, the doctrine as to an independent contractor may apply, but if 1t is dangerous in itself and will continue to be 50, and prob- ably cause injury unless reasorl- able care is taken to render 1t harmless to others who are therl- selves in the exercise of due care, 1t does apply" For the reasons we have stated, the court did not err in holding that the appellant de- fendants were jointly liable with the defendants McElligott.
 In view of our conclusion stated 1t is not necessary to discuss what effect, if any, any violation by the defendant appellants of the city ordinances might have had upon the issue of their liability.
 There is no error. Tn this opifl- ion the other judges Concurred.

The sergeant said several witnesses who had seen the girl 8 short time before she fell or was pushed through the window said that while she had been drink ing beer she was not intoxicated.
 Story of Simpson
 Simpson told police he met Miss Sullivan after the dance hall closed at midnight, went with her to 6 nearby restaurant and met several other young folks. He claimed she told him of drinking earlier in the evening and said he advised her to be careful about taking any more but she insisted on several beers. He said because of her condition he. did not want to take her where there were many people 50 they went to. ward the dance hall.
 Simpson said by the time they reached the promenade ct the enc trance to the dance casino she be. came hysterical and he decided to take her into the hall. After she got inside, he said, she threatened to commit suicide by jumping out of the window.
 Went to Get Help
 Finally" said Simpson, "she laid down in corner and I went out to see if could find some girl who might be able to do something for her, and I had gone down the en- trance steps about half way when I heard a faint crash of glass, I was just going back when I saw my brother Chester at the gate at the Stuart avenue side of the hall and he told me someone had jumped out of the window. I then realized what had happened and made my way out through the promenade to Bently avenue and ran around the corner to Stuart avenue and found the policemen putting Ellen into a car"
 Sergeant Cavanaugh said Simpson denied making any attack upon the girl, referred to her as @ decent girl for whom he had the utmost re. spect and said he was grief stricken over her death.

 but that he expected to obtain vital information from him.
 Seek Information
 Police hope to obtain from Gaddy additional information about Q pass key found in the door of Miss Cleven- gers room when her uncle, Prof. W. l.. Clevenger of North Carolina State college, went to awaken her Thursday morning.
 Brown claims the key was used by the murderer. The key and other evidence led police to believe that the staying was Ian inside job"
 The new line of inquiry turned the Investigation away from Mark Woll- ner, concert and radio violinist, held for three days. Detective Chief Fred Jones said the inquiry into Wollner's movements the night of the staying indicated he is inno- cent" of connection with the crime.
 Wollner, his 1iance, Mildred Ward, and two negro hotel employees re- mained in Jail. No charge has been placed against any of them. Miss Ward, 10 year old daughter of Woll- ner's landlady, supported his alibi that he was in his room at the time Miss Clevenger was slain.

section of Waterbury. In the
 seven foot sidewalk abutting the front of this building, is Q trap door affording access to the base- ment. This door when closed is approximately flush with the side- walk and extends out onto the walk from the door'S inner edge
 close to the front of the building, 64 inches.
 It is approximately 36 inches in with and is in two sections, each IS inches wide, made of plank one and three-quarters inches thick and each section weighing 35 pounds. Each section opens upward, being attached on its outer edge by two hinges to an opposite side of the hatchway opening, those sides extending at right angles to the front of the building. There was no guard or warning in connection with the door. Ordinances of the city fore bade the construction of such Q doorway without permission from its authorities, and also leaving such a door open unles properly puarded.
 About a month before the plain- tiff sustained his injuries, the de. fendant executors engaged the defendants McElligott to supply fuel and oil for heating this building as needed, and in con- 1ection herewith authorized them to make inspections for the pur- pose of keeping the oil tanks filled.
 Persuant to the arrangement the defendants McElligott inc structed their employe Irwin to make regular inspections of the

increase in revenue made 1t inpos- sible at this time to accede to the request of drivers and platform men for higher wages. The statement said the majority of over.the-road drivers were now being paid the equivalent of 9l an hour whereas the agreement last year was for 7S cents an hour.
 Pay in Waterbury
 The statement said further that platform men in Waterbury were re- ceiving 50 cents an hour and local drivers 67 and Ia cents, the basic rates throughout the state, and ex- pressed the belief that state and federal regulations will eventually stabilize rates and place the truck ing industry on Q more profitable basis"
 Strikers countered with the asser- ton that due to minimum time al- lotments for making trips, wage rates were in actuality much lower. It Is claimed that men have received as little as 2I cents an hour for trips to New York. The union also claims that most of the local companies are openly violating agreements made last year, either paying wages under the agreement or evading the con- tracts by paying salaries. Only the Laskas Motor Lines, Inc, has lived up to the letter of the contracts, 1t is stated.
 Police Superintendent Roach, Commissioner Henry Minor and De. putty Superintendent Daniel Carson have been in constant contact with the strike and have visited picketing points several times. Superintendent Roach said the strikers themselves had asked for police supervision of the picketing.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-07-22

Superintendent Roach declared that trucks of all descriptions were al- lowed to pass regardless of the lla. ture of their loads. It had been re- ported that pickets were halting oil trucks containing other than per- ishable goods.
 Another conference of union offi- cials was in progress late this morning at Building Trades Couri- Gil Hall on Union street but little information could be gained on the nature of the discussion. Asked whether there would be another attempt to settle differences today before the state board of arbitration and mediation, Q union representa- tive declared that this would depend upon the outcome of the morning session. He was unable to state how long the conference would last and refused to call to the phone either Edmund J. Naylor, bushes repre- sentative of the union, or Rudolph Tata, president, with the assertion that they were too busy to be dis- turbed.
 Spread Not Confirmed
 Reports that the strike might spread to other sections of the state could not be confirmed, although an incident reported in Bristol last night lent credence to this belief. Four men in a car, Bristol police re- ported, tried to intimidate New Haven truck drivers passing through the streets. Bristol police were of the opinion that the quartet repre- sented Waterbury strikers.

this activity the council had threa. tened to suspend o. I. o. members. At conclusion of Q secret meeting late yesterday Lewis and his asso- ciates sent William Green, A. F. of L. president, @ sharply -worded let. ter declining to appear for trial and denying power of the council to excommunicate them. "The council, which incidentally has notoriously prejudged the issue, is without au- thority to dismember the federal tion," the letter, signed by Lewis, said. "The 0. I. o. declines to sub- init to its jurisdiction"
 No Fight With Federation
 Lewis emphasized that his quarrel is not with the American Federation of Labor, but with its crafts-union- dominated executive council. The decision to ignore the council sum- mons was unanimous, Lewis said. Asked directly by reporters if he would carry the suspension fight to the floor of the Tampa conven- ton in November, Lewis said: "De- ponent sayeth not" Unless com- promise is reached within the next l2 days, 1t was regarded as certain that the council will vote suspen- sion of the IF insurgent unions. Hopes for . compromise, appeared slim.
 Green Will Not Predict
 Green declined to predict council action. T do not want to make any prediction on what the council will do because do not want to pre- judge the case," he said. Lewis now claims % per cent of the Federa- tion's 3.000,0OO members. His c. I. o. has gained nearly 500.OO0 recruits since it's formation last November. Friends of Lewis predicted that if the c. I. o. is forced out of the federation he will form e new labor organization and declare open war on Green for control of Che organic cd labor movement. Lewis, however, has denied any intention oe seced-

THE people oI South America 4 were driving Spain ofr that continent. New independent na. 1ions were forming. The czar of Russia. owner of the territory that now is Alaska, feared loss of his own control in America. He sought the aid of European rulers to bring Spain back to South America, and to strengthen his own hand in the New World.
 Into this situation, in 1923. stepped James Monroe. president of the United States. His note to Congress, now known as the "Monroe Doctrine" denied the right of European powers to fur. ther colonization in the New World.
 Monroe was one os the most popular presidents of the United States. His administration, from 1877 to 1925, was known as the ''era of good feeling" for then the United States made great progress in territorial expansion and business. He was reelected in 1920 by an almost unanimous vote, one elector voting against him to keep the honor of unani. nous election for George Wash- ington alone.

 LoyaIists Get Strong Points
 The loyalists seized strong points, organized them and from defense proceeded to attack. Their chief fortress in this Pittle Malaga war was the cathedral, the highest building in town, from whose tower they fired on the rebels. Some civil guards and storm guards deserted the rebels and joined the loyAlist forces. Then the refugees said, the i'll organized loyalist army went mad. They demolished buildings and homes and ransacked shops. BritonS took refuge first at the consulate and then, for greater safety, in the British steamship Calderon in the harbor. Most buildings in the city were bullet pierced, the refugees said.
