 after the court hearing.
 Large quantities of goods from the county home were found in Ford's possession, police said.
 While state police searched rec ords to discover whether any finan- cial mismanagement of the institu- tion had occurred, county commits sioners announced Mrs. Mary Os- born, Dayville, has been named temporary head of the home.
 Sensation Probe Tuesday
 The sensational case, which pre-: cipitated bitter debate in the state senate yesterday over an investiga- ton resolution introduced by Sen- ator J, Kenneth Bradley and which was sidetracked to the judiciary committee, "broke" Tuesday when police picked up tw1 children who fled the home because of alleged indecent advances by Provandie.
 Later, a third child added similar charges against the superintendent, Then, questioning of 20 children yesterday produced admissions by three more children that Provandie allegedly had annoyed them. More children were to be questioned to" day.
 More Revelations
 Revelations children at the home had not been served with any but ter for a year, although 129 pounds were purchased during the past three months, sent investigators pouring into institution records as to receipts and expenditures.
 The home has a two-year budget of $ll5,57O, fo which the state supplied $68,OO0, authorities said. Individual expenses of the institu- tion, police said, showed an outlay of $3,OO0 for housework, although children do most of that work there; $1,2O0 for laundry, although inmates do this work; outside labor, $4,O00; salary of matrons, 5000; provisions, $24,000; furnishings $2,200.
 Although five girl inmates were employed regularly at the home, state police said, and were promised $15 month compensation, they rarely received 1t. A diversion of $l25 in one month in this branch of work at the home was discovered, police said.
 Embezxlement Charges
 These discoveries, it was indicated, may result in embezzlement charges being filed against the Provandies. Mrs. Provandie was said to be at Hartford hospital sufefring from an eye ailment.
 Miss Mildred Bogue, conducting separate investigation of the in stitution for the Connecticut Hu- mane Society, reported that few cases of undernourishment were found, but that dlet of the children had been neglected. Their ages ange from to 18.

Judge Patrick B. O'SWllivan in superior court today overruled the demurrer of the Connecticut Light & Power company which claimed the maintenance of the crib work at the base of the Stevenson dam, in Ok ford, was not a nuisance. The de- murrer had been entered in answer to six of the numerous actions brought against the power company by owners of cottages along the Housatonic river.
 The cottage owners claimed their property was destroyed March 12 of last year, during the flood, due to the negligence of the power company in the operation of Stew enson Dam. The demurrers which were overruled today were filed against the action brought by Mar garet A. Kane, Anna Moore, John M. Beauton, Jennie Drapeau and William Wargo.
 The amended complaint of the plaintiffs contended that the sev- eral of the acts of the defendant company constituted a nuisance. It is claimed that the crib work, which

 Those Calling Strike
 The Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen and the Brotherhood of Enginemen end Firemen called the strike. The Brotherhood of Railway Engineers and the Order of Railway Conductors took no part in the strike plans. The latter two organ nations apparently sided with the management and their spokesmen termed the strike "an attempt by the B.R.T. and the BEEF. to gain increased Jurisdiction over railway employees" President Roosevelt irl- tervened on Wednesday and ordered mediation. The strike call violates that order.
 should Stay Strike
 Under the Railway Labor Act, the presidents order to arbitrate auto matically stays strike for 60 days. The National Mediation Board IS given 30 days to conduct hearings ad 30 days to consider and plan action. The President intervened in the Southern Pacific dispute this week. c. v. Mclaughlin, vice-presi- dent of the Firemen and Engine men, said: we have protested to Washington against inclusion of the Brotherhood of Railway Engineers and the Order of Railway Conduc- tors (the other two units of the Big Fouro in the orders for us to arbitrate.
 Not Called Off
 "The strike has not been called off" c. H. Smith, president of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, concurred. Southern Pacific offi- cials charged that the trouble rec suited from a disagreement among the four brotherhoods over jurisdic- tional matters. They said the com- pany was not involved. McLaugh- lin, however, said the dispute con- cerned the refusal of the railway management to recognize Brother hood rights in labor matters.
 Sign New Agreements
 Mclaughlin and Smith said the railroad has already signed new agreements with the Engineers and the Conductors and they did not want those brotherhoods included n mediation conferences.
 Meanwhile, Dr. William H. Leiser- son, chairman of the National Medi- ation Board, prepared to open a hearing on the dispute next Tues day. He will preside over 'three- man board.

 Assault on Officials
 Kansas City, April 16.-UP-- Workers threatened new strike at the Ford Motor company plant to- day in retaliation for assaults on two officials of the United Automo- bile Workers last night. Hired thugs" were blamed.
 Barron De Louis, president of the union local, and o. w. Penney, union organizer at the Ford plant, who are directing campaign to enlist Kansas City Ford workers into the affiliate of the Committee for Indus trial Organization, were waylaid and beaten in the streets.
 De Louis was set upon by four men as he left the Ford plant after work. He said they beat him with guns and blackjacks.
 At union meeting few hours later, 400 workers from the chassis department, best organized unit of the Ford plant, voted to authorize union officials to call a strike, If they deem it necessary to obtain withdrawal of company thugs"
 Tells of Attack
 Penney addressed the meeting and reported on the assault on De Louis. As he left the union meeting hall, he was assaulted by four men and beaten with guns and black jacks. He said the men did not say a word as they approached, and that they left him lying uncon- Scious in the streetS
 De Louis said he notified union officials in Washington and Detroit and that Ed Hall, vice president ot the International Union, was com ing here today for an investigation
 Penney was spokesman for Ford workers when they conducted one- day sit-down strike at the plant two . weeks ago, the first strike of its . kind in the history of Ford Motor company.
 Why Strike Was Called
 Two weeks before the strike, the union had organized local at the plant. The strike was called when the company laid off $50 men. Union leaders said JAW men had been discriminated against in the lay offs. When the company agreed to take back all workers and not to molest union organizers, the strike was called off
 Company officials refused to com- ment on the assaults last night.
 Penney said:
 For a period of years it has been noted that the Ford company was viciously anti-union and used meas ures of coercion to keep it's workers from organizing. Now they have started to use more violent methods in dealing with their employees"
 A wiry little man of 38, Penney suffered dislocated jaw and scalp wound that required six stitches to close.
 Penney recalled other violent in cidents that have marked the organ ization of labor in Kansas City. He said that Sol Goldberg and man named White, of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union had been slugged recently and needed disqualification.
