Two attachments were placed on
the plant this morning by Constable

Another attachment was placed by

Several other attachments have.
been put in the hands of the officials,
but have not yet been served formally.
Judge John H. Light. who represents
the Dennis & Blanchard company, was
'asked today about the financial embar-

that they are principally New York

Whether the company will be forced
Into bankruptcy. or whether some com-
promise cau be made with the credi-

cannot yet be foretold.
The financial embarrassmcnts of the

Recent Rise' In Wages Is Being
Followed by a- Decrease in
Force
Following the announcement that
the New Haven road had increased the
vnves of its telegraph operators, it
vas learned today that ‘the company
vns planning to discontinue this ser~
lice at several stations along its sys
item at night and at many smaller ger
points during the day time. These sta-
tions are Iibt good payers in the tele-
graph business as the amount of this
stuff handled hardly pays the wages
of the station master, who is usually
an operator at the small stations
along the line.
in giving up the night service the
company cuts of! the cost of maintain.
ing an operator at these stations dur
ing the night and in closing certain
o'fiices during the day it saves further
operating expenses. On the day tricks
the company can hire other men to
handle the slations and these will pro
bahly be secured at a lower rate of
wages than has been paid the opera-
tors, though they have been getting
little enough. In taking this step the
company in a measure counteracts the
effect of the increase recently granted
the telegraphers it is forced to keep
on its payrolls.

that it will be several days before the

Important Meeting Held In the
.80th Norwalk Congregation-
al Church—Proposed Union
With Methodist Protestants
and United Brethren Discuss-
ed
The meeting of the Falrfiold West
Consoclation of Congregational
Churches held at the South Norwalk
Congregational Church, yesterday, was
one of the most largely attended meet-
ings of recent yeais. Nearly ever
church was repiesouted by full dele-
gatwions
The Norwalk churches were repre-
sented by Rev. Chailes S. Macfuilsnd,
Deacon Edward Beard, Rev. George I).
Egbert, Conrad Horde and Rev
Charles J. Vahlstrom.
The churches represented were Sec-
ond Church of Bridgeport, Black Rock,
Darien, East .Norwalk. Easton, Fair-
field, Georgetown, Georgetown S‘wed-
ish Greenfield Hill. Greens Farms,
Norwalk. Ridgebury Ridgefield, South
Norwalk. Southport. Stamford, Wes-
ton, Westport and Wilton.
Rev. Louis F. Bony, of Stamfod,
was the moderator, and Rev. W. P.
Lands-rd of Westport, the scribe.
The important business of the meet-
ing was a resolution offered by Dr.
Mucfarland, on his own behalf and also
representing several other ministers of
the Consociatlon, with regard to the
necessity for reorganizing the body.
Dr. Macfarland called attention to the
fact that the present. organization does
not provide for conferences. and does
not succeed in bringing the churches
together Into fellowship.
He outlined three ways In which a
church might take action under such
unsatisfying conditions. It might with-
draw und unite with some other con-
venicnt conference. It might unite
itself with other like-minded churches
and organize a new conference. Or
the present organization might be so
constituted as to meet the deficiencies,
He preferred the latter method. His
resolution was as follows: “That a
committee be appointed to consider
such changes in th I organization and
constitution of the onsociation as will
make it more. effective in bringing the
churches into fellowship and In pro-
viding for general conferences upon
questions affecting the common life of
the churches.
The proposition was earnestly sup-
ported by Revs. George D. Edbert, W.
P. Lenders, L. F. Berry. A. W. Gerrle,
H. H. Tweedy and several others.
There was some dissent, which was
mainly voiced by Judge 1. H. Perry. of
Southport. After the discussion. howl
ever, the vote. was almost unanimous
in favor of the resolution. The fol-
lowing committee was appointed to
carry it into effect: ' .Macfarland,
Rev. Mr Egbert, Rev. C. Woodruif,
Rev. H. H. Tweedy, Rev. W. H. Gane.
Rev. F. 8 Child, Judge J. H. Perry,
Deacon Harry Quintard, of Stamford.
and A. Morehouse, of Duties. This
committee is to meet at. South Nor-
walk the first week in July.
At 6 o’clock supper was served by
a committee of ladies from the Nor-
walk and South Norwalk churches.
In the evening a general conference
was held to discuss the proposed on.
Ion of the Congregational denomina-
tion with the Methodist Protestant and
the United Brethren. The devotionai
exercises were conducted by Rev. W.
H. Gone and Rev. H. H. Tweedy. The
program and speakers woro as fol-
lows: ,
The Principles Involved—Rev. Louis

The Possible Disadvantages of Un-

The addresses were all vigorous and
interesting. In the open discussion
which followed, the following persons.
among others. participated: Rev. H.
H. Tweedy. Rev. W. H. Holman, Judge
Perry. Mr, Egbert, Dr. Macfarland and
John B. Iawrence.
The next step in the matter will be
taken by the individual churches of
the Consociation. The South Norwalk
church will discuss the matter on
Thursday evening of this week. After
meeting of the Consociatlon will be
called to put the general sentiment
of the churches into some final form
III‘III' submission to the National Coun~
c .
The Consoclation yesterday Was of
unusual interest It has long been felt
that this association of the .churches
was not serving its purposein bring-
ing the churches into association with
each other. In years past there have
been several efforts to Improve the sit-
uation. but they proved abortive. The
present attempt seems to promise suc-
cess. The committee In charge of It
consists of the stronger ministers and
laymen In the Consoclatlon and it is
expected that they will succeed In ef~
fectlng such a reorganization as will
bring about the desired result.
