serving of the luncheon, when Mr.
Sculley announced that Master James
Walker would sing “I'm Wearlii' My
Heart Away For You." A flashlight
picture of the gathering was taken by
John Thompson. The feast was then
begun. The service was excellent and
everything went off as smoothly and
pleasantly as possible.

The affair was in charge of a joint
committee from the Hatters’ Unions. of
The Norwalks. and to them belongs
great credit for the successful manner
in which the affair was conducted. The
chairman was Charles M. Raymond.
whose ability in providing elaborate
suppers Is well—known, and he was as-

Plans in New Haven.

The quarterly meeting of the state
board of health, to be held at the
office of State. Health Officer Dr. C. A.
Lindsley. Elm street, New Haven to-
day. will prove of special interest to
the military men of the state.

The principal matter that will be con.
sidered will be a drainage system of
the state camp grounds at. Nlantic.
Recommendations made by sanitary
experts will be considered.

The question Is one of vast import-
ance and has given the military author-
Itles much to think aboat. In the
summer of 1898 when volunteer sold‘
Icrs were encamped at Niantlc many
cases of fever resulted from the poor

STAMFORD. Conn” Oct. lit-More
trouble in the form of law units, was
brought yesterday to Charles G. Quin-
tnrd. of this city, who has gained
considerable notoriety of late because
of his elopement with Miss Alice Brad-
ley, a wealthy heirest, of Stamford.

Previous to his elopeinont, Quintard
was the proprietor of a livery stable
at Sound Beach and this property was
auctioned off this afternoon. The real
estate connected with the property was
bought by Dr. Clarence Burley. a broth-
or of Mrs, Quintard, for $7.200.

While the auction sale was In pro
gross. Deputy Sheriff Hendrie appear-
ed and served copies of complaints In
several actions. One of them was a
suit by Walter Hurley. father of Mrs.
Quintard, who claims 0600 damages
from Qtilntnrd. In a bill of particulars.
a board bill for Mrs. Qtiintard from
Sept. 4, 1902. to April 4, 1003, for 0261,
Is mentioned.

Another siilt was brought by Louis
W. Hoffman, of Bridgeport who seeks
to recover 8600. Hoffman claims he
loaned Quintard 3400 last October. An-
other suit by Louis W. Hoffman and
his wife, Anna J, Hoffman, of Bridge
port, is for the recovery of $142.26. The
basis of these suits in the alleged loan
of personal property for which Quin-
tard was to pay 020 a week.

Auctioneer Dr. A. C. Hexamer was
served with a summons to appear be
fore the common pleas court to show
whether he has In his maession any
money belonging to Qiilntard. This
summons grows out of the claims
made that Quintard transferred his
property to Harry Williams,

five Panhandlers
Operate in Norwallt

Gang Stopped Four Not-walk Citizens,
but Escaped Before Police Could
Capture Thom.

*- t

A gang of five panhandlers were at
work last night In Norwalk, but un-
fortunately the police did not get hold
of them. because of‘ the excitement
raised. The beggars stopped a number
of people In Main street, about 11
o',clook among others James H. Mag-
ner. John Lycett, George Lockwood
and George Murray. These four gen-
tlemen were going up the street In
iwos, Messrs. Murray and Lockwood
considerably In the lead. Two men
stopped them at the corner of Hoyt
and Main street and put up a pitiful
tale and wound up by asking for some
money for food and lodging. They were
directed to the police for assistance.
A short distance further up they were
stopped by two more. About this time
they came to the conclusion that the
police. should be notified and after
meeting Messrs; Magnum and Lycett.
who had also been stopped, decided no
all this course. A telephone message
was sent from Mr. Magner’a residence
in Cross street, but no one was at the
police station and a message was then
sent to a Main street cafe. This stari-
ed a rumor that there had been a. big
hold up and a crowd started up the
street on a run. This gave the pan-
handlers ample opportunity to “gel
on." and they disappeared and the po-
lice were unable io find them.

ed by the International
Silver Cunpany Will Not
Do Soto Enforce Demand
for a Nine flour Day

MERIDEN. Oct. 16.—-Tho metal
workers employed by the International
Silver Company Ill this city and other
places have voted not to strike to
enforce the demand for a nlno-holir dfiy' l 2
WllI(Il was recently refused by. that ,,
company. Meetings of the unioniiikl «
Walllngford, Bridgeport, Derby and
other towns where the International
Silver Company has factories, were ”I
held last evening and ballots were ' ‘ '
cast on the question of striking. Thane .
ballots were not counted at that. time
but were sent here to be counted today " ‘
with the Meriden union’s vote.

i‘lCeithlll E. J. Lyncn and rice-presi-
deut John J, Flynn, of the lnuernarlou- ~
al Metal and Brass Workers' Union,
and State Organiser M. J. Hanlon, of
the Federation of Labor, conducted the
count. They found 1,702 ballots east.
of which 1,152 were against a strike
and 550 In favor. Vice‘presldent Flynn
said the vote represented all the unions
in the factories of the company where- 2'
cver located.

The tact that the sentiment of the
union men proved to be against airlif-
lng was no surprise to Merlden people
for there has been little fear2‘fof a
strike here. it is said that theZconi-
pa‘ny has a sufficient supply of manu-
factitred product on hand to meet the
demands of the holiday trade. and the
time has been iegarded generally an in.
opportune for a strike from the stand
point of the men.

No statement of the vote cast In
each of the meetings was given out to-
day. In this city It Is known that
there was a large representatbon of
members of the unions at the meet- .
ing in the town hall many new mem-
bers having been added til the grills in
the last few days.
