Which May Mean Open Shop.
NEW YORK. Aug. 22.~—A crisis in
the building trades lockout is expected
to be reached today. The ultimatum
of the Employers‘ Association that. the.
men must return to work or their
places will be filled. becomes operative
today. The Eillployers' Association
announces that the men individually
will have to sign the arbitration plan.
and as their numbers become sufficient
they will be. formed into unions. This
is interpreted by some of the union
leaders to mean the open shop and
they are. ready lmfight it,
Although the bricklaycrs are «still
at work. much onxlety is expregaed as
to the stand they will take. There is
a feeling of unrest. and dissatisfaction
among the men and if they are asked
to work beside non-union men. some
of their representatives say that trou-
blc will surely re uit.
A meeting of th employers as a
body will be held today, followed by
meet tags of the emergency committee.

He. said that he believed she had been
Ilirown overboard, as there were some
men about. the place when he found

slatted to carry them away they yelled

He. stated that the woman had boon

she had been in the shed on the wharf.

there, for about 12 oclock she tcio~
pill. nod to Solulalis' dtables to have II

was refused unless she paid flit in

and apprehend her. but was unable to
discover iler whereabouts. it must
have been shortly after this that she
tell overboard. as the elliptic appeared
to have been in the. water for sev-
eral hours at least. , .
Tile most peculiar thing in connec-
tion with the case. is the fact that the
body floated so soon after death. It is
a fact that a corpse already dead when
put in the water will float. and like—
wise will a person thrown into tlle
water in all unconscious state, but.
other circumstances which would cause
a body to float ale rather rare.
The condition of the dress skirt
found on the edge. of the wharf would
indicate that her potations had been
too much for her stomach. and that
while at theI edge of the wharf trying
to vomit she fell overboard and was
drowned. This would not explain the
fact of the body floating
Youngs was not held as a witness,
but the medical examiner instructed
Acting Chief of Police Pennington to
Investigate the case thoroughly. and
see what could be ascertained regard-
ing it.
Mrs. Bubia has relatives living in
West Norwalk. The body was taken
