those led by Senator George T. Gull hane, were flor the judge"
 Atty. McLinden Still In
 That meant elimination, in one senle of the candidacy of Attor- ney McLinden, close to the Culhane unit for some time and Attorney McLinden told The Democrat that he "is candidate" While he has not actively sought to pledge the delegates. he said, he, with others mentioned, have asked for considera- ton and he has not withdrawn from this aspect of the race, he remarked.
 Candidates today found them- selves confronted with less time than had been expected to make their solicitation among delegates. First report was that the probate convention, as well as the senatorial and town conventions, would not be held until after the state conven- ton next week. But Attorney Walter E. Monagan returned to Waterbury at the weekend and, after con- ferring with party leaders. decided on either Thursday or Friday night, with the latter understood now to be the official date.
 Question May Arise
 On the other hand, reports were circulating today that there might arise some question as to the con- duct of the caucus which, with Thomas F. Mccarthy as chairman, was held secretly. But none of the known candidates subscribed to this stand and some of those most prom inently mentioned remarked that the contest for delegates has seen no friction which might throw" the convention to compromise candi- date.
 It was considered likely that some candidates with between r. and 15 delegates might concede after the first or second ballots to the strong CT contender, provided the delegates were agreeable to this position prior to the session. No known deals" were reliably reported as of today, however, and the picture of last weeks alignment, whereby one seg- ment of delegate strength was known to have certain commitments seemed lost as dominant factor.

BLAZE DESTROYS
 CHESHIRE PLANT
Worst Fire in Towns His- tory Does Damage ESti-
 mated at $75,OOO
Special to The Democrat)

Cheshire, Sept. 6-No cause has been determined for the blaze which totally destroyed the Star Water Go. plant on Willow street in spec- tacular fire here Sunday night. Damage from the fire, the worst in thetown's history, was estimated at $75,000.
 Two small trucks and garage near the main building were all that flremen could save. The building was a mass of flames when f1remen arrived, and it was feared for 8 time that nearby buildings might catch fire.
 Bremen reported that several minor explosions occurred as the building went up in flames. Chief Richard Williams directed the fire fighters at the scene.
 The building was literally leveled to the ground. So thorough was the destruction that little hope was held that the origin of the blaze could be definitely determined.
 Constables were kept busy keeping crowds back at the scene, since there were fears that serious explosions might come as the building burned.

under consideration, however, of posts in the probate court and this aspect of the delegate solicitation is expected to have important bearing on at least one candidacy. Another consideration will be, of course, the suitability of the candidate to make a strong race in the event the Re- publicans agree on some nominee such as Republican Town Chairman J. Warren Upson, who has not, at the moment, made announcement of his plans.

TWO-ToNED LACE

HOLLYWOOD. Jan 31.-Second- guessing on the James Cagney-NVar- ner Bros. peace treaty effected the other days gives us a pretty piece of backs age drama.
 On the surface, Il would appear lhe boys merely got together and ironed cut their troubles with smil- ing sweetness all around. Ca2nay, after making two films for the in dependent Grand National com pany, goes back to the studio where he became Q star in hard-hitting malodramas. Ills suit to free him- self from a $4,000 a week contract was victorious nearly two years ago. The state supreme court, when both contesting parties agreed. reversed that decision.
 The result takes a load off many minds Cagney won originally, not on his contention that he was over- worked. but on a slip of the studio in billing him under Pat OBrien at one of the Warmers theaters, which was a breach of contract.
 Had the case gone through to a

supreme court test on it's merits, many studio contracts with stars would have been endangered in the event Of 9 Cagney victory Had Cagney lost, on the other hand, he would have been compelled to give up pictures or return to War ners under his old contract Acute discomfort, in either event, would have resulted, either for Cagney or for Warmers and the other maj0 studies. The outlook was sufficient 1y serious, apparently, to induce the Warmers to make concessions, at the same time inducing the actor to change his mind. Cagueys mind, freely spoken during and after his studio fight WIS against further re- lations with those Warmers in any circumstances.
 Insiders credit Bill Cagney, his brothers manager, and Harry War ner, the studio president with prime responsibility for the peace pow VOWS. Bill persuaded fiery Jimmy to talk terms, and Harry sinoothed over Inc ruffled spirits of brother Jack Warner, and the turkey ensued. The whole affair was strengthened out in a three-hour conference.
 Two-AYear New
 This way both the studio and the star are winners. Cagney, feuding with Warmers. could never have worked for a major studio, as ma- ior studios have a silent. unofficial agreements about employing each c.her's rebels. A star of Cagney's importance needs a major" re- lease and Warner Bros. needs a star like Cagney. Several poten- tial "Cagney substitutes" did not pan out If report is true, Cagney will get $10o,o00 a picture for two pictures yearly. His old deal netted him S160,OO0 fer four pictures.
 Toe many pictures a year was one of Cagney's kicks against the studio Another was the way he WAS required, in films. to do un- gentlemanly deeds like seeking ladies. pushing in their facas, and kicking them about-deeds all lln- pleasant to Cagney personally. The laugh is that while Cagney was at Grand National playing gentle manly roles, the rest Of the screen went berserk and leading ladies learned to regard slaps and kicks as part of their days workl

Wide-skirtad iroUny frocks are ] skimming over New York's smart est dance floors these evenings.
 They pillow around their wearers feet like foam, and appear in hues which make the smartest supper clubs as colrful as flower gar dens. Tine best are of pleated chif- fon or net, are nearly always very decollete and are often topped by brief boleros. Some slender-skirted irocks are also seen.
 Ii you are choosing a new party ffcek to put zip in your spirits and wardrobe, try one of the new color schemes. Have a full net frock which aitarnates panels Of fuchsia and blue, pale blue pleated chif- lon banded in white velvet ribbon CT 2 gray chiffon with pink roses massed on the bodice.
 Use your imagination in selecting accessories. Garry one of tine new gleamng gold apple compacts and wear a gold necklace and bracelets instead of the pearls that have served you 50 long.
 When your dance costume is ready give thought to your manner on the dance floor or in the night club Leo Reisman, whose jazz orches- ira plays in one of New York's smartest supper rooms, says dance manners are as important to suc- cess as dance trocks. Here are some of his suggestions
 Give most of your attention tt your own man. Don't smile toe much at the others More incipien .ronances have been spoiled in nigh clubs by a woman's flirting with another man than by any other cause.
 Don't act in way to attract at tention. Draw it by your appear ance and poise, not by an overvivac- lous manner.
 Don't dance cheek to cheek or kick your heels backward.
 Look as though you were having a good time. Smile.
 Don't powder your nose on the dance floor or in the club. Go 70 the powder room.
