William liowsrd, Accused of
Conduct Ilnllecominp e Fo‘ro
man. But its Takes all Ap-
peel From the Finding of the
Finishers

Hailing circles in South Norwalk
were considerably surprised yesterday
and today, when it became known that
3. fine of 8100 had been Imposed on a
oreman in one of the largest factories
in this district.

The foreman is William Howard. of
the soft but department, at the fac-
tory of the Crofut d: Knapp Company.
He was tried before a committee of
the men in the various factories in
Norwalk, each shop sending two men
as representatives.

The specific charge was “conduct un-
becoming a foreman." It was stated
by the witnesses examined that Mr.
Howard found unnecessary fault with
the men. turned back work on some
slight and unwarranted pretext, and
.lnposed numerous hardships on those
under his charge. The men resented
iblfl after a Willie, and brought formal
charges against the foreplun. lie was
found guilty. and a fine of $100 was
imposed.

Attached to the fine were some In-
teresting conditions. One was that
Mr. Howard must pay $60 of the fine
before he could go to work in the
factory yesterday morning, and anoth-
er was that the remaining 850 should
be paid today.

Mr. Howard, it is understood, has
not complied with the order of the
representatives of the Union, and has
announced his intention of taking an
appeal to the executive officers of the
national body. He claims that there
is no Justification for charges against
him, and that the trouble was all
-brought about by one man who fel-
lnerly worked in Boston, and who has
developed an animoillty against him.

Some further interesting develop-
ments are expected in the not for dis-
tant future. -

DUES FOB, RETURN OF .200.

Funny Michsk Hes Vincent Pianovskl
Arrested for Breach of Promise.

Fit nnuy Michell. of Springwood. has
ilevll disappointed In her love affairs
and incidentally ill her financial af-
fairs.

The result of this poignant disap-
pointment in two such important parts
of the human life have resulted In her
bringing a suit for breach of promise,
Planovski, a tailor employed by Davis
and Company.

Papers were served in the case this
morning by Constable John J. Good-
win and the case will come before the
town court on the second Monday in
September with Attorney John Keogh
acting for Miss Miohek. The papers
allege that Planovski obtained from
Miss Michek the sum of $200 and that
upon receipt of it he promised to be-
come her husband. Her affection for
him was such that 8200 appeared very
cheap. Since that time. she has pass-
ed through eleven months of dreary
heart breaking waiting and still Vin-
cent as not led her to the altar. The
0200 did not come back either, and
Miss Michek felt that she should have
either a husband or the, 3800. so the
suit was instituted. Plsnovskl gave a
bond of 8800 to stand trial.

CIRCUS OF A HIGH ORDER.
Everywhere the comments on the
circus at Roton are of a high order and
the show is growing in popularity dal-
ly. The crowds are growing larger
at each performance. The management
has been disappointed in the batons
accessions. as yesterday there was so
much wind that it would not have
been safe to make the attempt. The
management stated this afternoon at 1
o'clock that this afternoon the batons
will positively go up. The slide for
life has also been put in working order
if this sensational feature of the

supply and examined the reservoirs
and water shed. The water supply
was found to be an exceptionally good
one. however, and there was no com-

water about which complaint has been
made arises from the necessity of run-
ning the water through the old reser-
voir or pond, where it becomes foul
and muddy.

Dr. Sharer stated that in his opin-
ion the water supply will never be

GREENWICH, August 23.-—-Alonso
Ferris. a well-todo farmer of Sound
Beach, was burned to death In a fire
which destroyed a large barn, together
with horses and farming implements
during last night. The fire was dis
covered by a ooachman named William
Williams, who notified the owner of
the born, but the lire had gained too
much-headway to be extinguished.
In anattempt to save his favorite
more, Mr. Ferris entered the barn.
but was overcome by. smoke and
dropped in the stall with the horse.
the bones of both being found side by
side when the ruins had cooled suffic-
iently to permit men to enter.

In connection with the burning of
the barn, William Confort. a prosper-
ous farmer in the vicinity. has been
plced under arrest and is now in the
Greenwich jail awaiting a hearing.
About a month ago a large barn on the
property of Mr. Ferris was destroyed
by fire, and Mr. Ferris ordered the
arrest of Confort, who he claims had
threatened to burn him out. Sheriff
hitch had been on the lookout for
Confort ever since that time but has
been unable to find him. After last
night's fine Sheriff Bitch made a
search of the Conforl premises and
found his man. whom he immediately
placed under arrest. The financial
loss is about 35.000.

in Mr. Ferris' barn at the time the
fire was discovered wore two farm
hands asleep, and both had difficulty
in getting out. one being slightly hurt.
Mr. Ferris bad a mare and three colts
stalled besides a horse he was train-
ing for New York man. Mr ii‘errls
wanted to save all the animals and be
rushed through a shower of brands to
get them. Possibly he. would have
been successful had he not had trou-
*blo in getting the slump back out
of her stall, for while he was trying
to subdue her the wells of the barn
fell in and he was seen no more.

in regard to the charge against Con-
fort is is said that the man had had
disagreements over; cattle. during
which it is said that Confort made
threats. Soon after this a barn was
burned and Mr. Ferris obtained a war
rant. against his neighbor. The paper
had not been served. however. but af-
ter last night's fire Deputy Sheriff
Bitch went to Confort's house and
took him to the Jail. It is said that
Ferris' son was a witness to the dis-
pute between his father and Confort.
