The six nights' fair of the Hat Fin-
Ishers’ nml l-iut Trimmers’ Associa

tions closed last night. in Music Hall
and will go dmvn in history as one of
the most successful events. socially
and financially, ever held under the
auspices cf the. batters in town. The
idea of the two associations combining
and holding a joint fair was a new I
one, but the grand success recorded
will probably lead to similar ventures
in the future.

There. was an attendance of about
six hundred last night and all proceed.
ed to enjoy themselves. There. was
no canvassing. no ladies to attend to
your wants at the booths. in fact. the I
central booth had been taken away!
and everything was given over to the
enjoyment of the workers. to whom
the committee was to give one night
of pleasure instead of work. Dancing
was enjoyed in the. early part of the
evening until i0 o'clock. when the
drawing of the prizes commenced.

There was the greatest interest mane
ifested in this feature. to which many
had looked forward with pleasurable

' :iutlicpation for several days and cv—
cryono was quiet when Secretary John
W. Scuiley stated that the prizes
would be drawn. The drawing was

Delivered Before the Town Teachers’ 1
Association and Friends, Last
Night. In the Assembly Hall.

The third in the series of entertains I

l

, meals and lectures of the Town Teach» ,

ers' Association was given last even-5
Ing. Rev. William Maher, D.D., rector?
of St. Joseph's Church. delivering an
address on ”imperial Home.” The ad-
dress was given in the Town Assembly
room, Norwalk, before a faerlaed an.
dlence, where. for over an hour and a
half Dr, Maher held the close attention
of his hearers, laying before them a
vivid picture of the Eternal City as he
saw it during his seven years stay
within its confines

Owing to the illness of Principal
Charles A. Tucker. president of the as-
sociation. it devolved upon Superin-
tendent. W. C. Foote to introduce the
speaker. in a few short. well-chosen
words. Mr Foote presented Dr. Ma-
her saying that the duty which fell
upon himself was a real pleasure and
that the reverend gentleman needed no
introduction. He simply presented him
to the audience.

Dr. Mnher opened his lecture by tell
ing how he came to make the trip.
which was purely through accident. but
which he should never regret and
would always look back upon his seven
years stay there with pleasant mem- .
.,ories for them 0 received straining
educational all religions. that heI‘

 

. could have received nowhere else. The

speaker described the city as It looks
to the traveler upon first entering it
and his picture could not fail to im?
press every bearer with Its beauty, but
especially those among the audience.
and there were quite a number, who
had visited Rome.

His descriptions of the city. whether
taken from the. lofty hilltops around

throng in its crowded streets, were re.
alistic and given with that polish of
diction and charm of delivery that
characterizes all ,of Dr. Maker's ser-
mons. it did not take even the average
listener but a moment to discover that
be was in the. presence of a man who
thoroughly understood his subject and
could impart It in a manner that was
both pleasing and interesting.

Along with his description the speak-
er wovo into his address bits of an-
cient history and readings from Lord
Byron. adding not a little interest to
his story. But aside from all the the
points the lecture contained a world of
information cf immense value to the
heforo him. giving them a
enlightened Idea "of“ the: size
and grandeur of the Eternal City. Who.
indeed. had ever dreamed that Ancient
Rome held 7.000.000 souls. a population
as great as London and New York com
biped? llr. Mailer bad figures and
dates on his tongue and was never at i
a loss for either. Throughout his en
tire address he showed his thorough
mastery of the subject and at the close
was vigorously applauded.

The next. lecture in the series will be
given by Leon H. Vincent. who will
speak on “American liumorists." Mr
Vincent was here last season, and so
well did he demonstrate his ability
that the association secured him for
two lectures this season. confident. flint
those who heard him last year would
beer hlnr again. together with many
who did not. This is only following
out the dercrmiuntion of the associa .,
lion to keep their lectures on the high»
0st plane of merit.

tlemen put in the claim it is stated.
that the selectmen of the town were
not even aware that such a project
was on foot and by similar tactics ob
ruined the adjournment.

The fact of the adjournment is not
mater lal but the methods used to ob
into it Are not of a character to de
serve commendation

Notwithstanding that every step tak-
en in the movement for division has
been of the most public character. and
that when the time appointed for the
hearing was obtained. the Norwalk
committee was Immediately notified.
the other side, by the tactics
mentioned. secured the adjournment
without any knowledge or any oppor~
tunity to be board by the South Nor-
walk committee.

This was probably the “up-the.
sleeve" something that has been hint
ed about for several days by the Nor»
walk Interests.

We are sure there is no desire on
the part of South Norwaik to take any
advantage in this contest. The plan
is for an open contest, and the depen-
dence is on the actual conditions and
its claims that It has topresent. to the
legislature. The antagonistic position

The consolidation committee held
another meeting in the town court.
room in Wall street. last night..,and it

appeared that the hearing on division
had been postponed to a week from
Thursday.

Representative Wallace Darin was
instructed to do all that he could to
secure a joint session of the commit-
toe on cities and boroughs. which will
consider consolidation and the com-
mittee on new towns and boroughs.
which will consider division. and to
have the hearing on both consolidation
and division at the same time.

It was voted to request Mayor Char-
les L. Glover to call a special meeting
of the City of Norwalk to emphasize‘
the feeling for consolidation in the
city and an attempt will probably be
made in outlying districts by those in
favor of consolidation to have similar
meetings.

Last night‘s meeting was called. to
getbor by Chairman E. S. Adams.
shortly after 8 o 'clock, with about thlr
ty members of the consolidation com
mlttse present.

Attorney John .1. Walsh stated that
the proposed consolidation charter
had been nearly drafted. but there

he understo‘ that (hpsolhlntion

bill had been presents to the legislav
turn vesterday and had been late red
to the committee on cities and
ouahs.

Harry Rider asked if it could not be
arranged to have Abe hearing on one
solidation take place In Hartford the
some day an the hearing on division.
The chairman lpquired if It was the
sense of the“; ing that it would be
adult to have til hearing on the some
day. Attorney Leo Davis asked if
that meant to have them all as a joint
committee.

Mr Adams said he thought it would

of certain funds supposed to go to the
strikers, which found their way else

last evening at a special meeting of

the team drivers. held In Central La-
bor Lyceum, South Main street. and
called by larwrence A. Grace, nation
ui organizer from Pihovldence ll. 1..
who has been in South Norwnlk the
past few days investigating

As a result of the meeting several
important facts were brought out. our
ong which was the knowledge that a
certain South Norwnlll man was mixed
up III the strike, and. it Is believed.
started it. There were about fifty
t‘tsuru drivers at the meeting. all very
rum-ll interacted. National ()I‘XIUII’LN
Grace, who is also president of the in-
ternational Board of Trustees of the.
Team Drivers', presided, and called up
on each man present to come forward
and identify his signature on [.le pay
roll. In a few cases the men were no-
able to recognize their handwriting
and It was shown that several had
signed the pity rolls. apparently, who
never received any strike benefits.

After considerable. questioning and
examination of the books of the Union
by Mr. Grace he was able to account
for 3250 of the sum of over 3400 not
accounted for, leaving about 3200 still
to be heard from. It .is thought. by
members of the Union that a consider
able share of this deficit went Into the
pockets of the International deputy O.
J. Stockford, of Hartford. who was
here live weeks iii the fall in charge of
the strike. Mr Stoekford is being ex-
amined today before the national oihc
are at their headquarters in Detroit.
and it is expected that his examination
will throw considerable light on the
situation.

A significant statement was made
last. night that Mr. Stockford had no
right to expel any member of the Team
Drivers’ Union and that millions who
had been thus treated by him. If they
had paid their dues and compiled with
the bv~lawl of the Union. were still
members. All the books and papers of
the Union were sent this morning to
Detroit for examination by the nation-
al board. The investigating committee

Ex Mayor Arthur 0. Wheeler added
that while It would he a big saving in
expense and time, It woiifd also be we
slblc to get a‘largcr number to go and
that more enthusiasm would be shown
than if two trips had to be made. This
would givexa chance, he said to speak

argue against division. He said he
understood that the hearing on divis-
ion had been postponed for a week
and thought that possibly It would be
postponed until a little later if a joint
meeting of the cormnittees could be ar~
ranked.

Mayor Glover moved that it be the
sense of the meeting that the two coni-
mlttec meetings be held on the same
day

in’ response to a question of Oscar
W. Raymond. Representative Dana
said that there had been a meeting of
the different committee chairmen yes-
terday. and It had been agreed here
after to hold their hearings on the day
assigned for them and to go on with
them whether anyone appeared or not
This, however. will not affect the hear
log set for division, and no date has
yét been assigned for a bearing on
consolidation. He said he would see
today if an arrangement could not be
made for a joint hearing of the com
mittees.

Chairman Adams added that the.
hearings before the committees were
the some as before a court. and each
side had the right of having attorneys
to present the arguments.

Mr. Walsh said the object of the dl
visionists in getting a date set so
promptly for a hearing was to hustle

he matter through the legislature as
quickly as possible. He thought it a
good plan for the meeting to instruct
the clerk to send to the committees
by Mr. Dana. aformal request for a
joint meeting. With a joint meeting.
be believed that the question of di-
vision or consolidation could be band-
led more expeditiously and better.

Mr. Dunn replied that in his opinion
a joint hearing could be arranged If
the request be sent today.

Loo Davis asked if the diviolouicts
would agree to a joint meeting. To
this question Mr. Dunn replied that he
thought that they preferred the bear-
