Skelly, of Norwalk, is receiving a lot of good natured joshing from his friends over a little tilt he had Tuesday afternoon with a young man who collects for a weekly publication. This oung man, a stranger named Lewis t. John, went around to Mr. Skeliy’a office to make a collection and the councilman reminded film that he had told him not to call until Sep- tember. Mr. Skelly was very busy and when St. Jphn wanted to argue the case, the councilman did not have the time, and told the young man to 0 along about his business. St. John nsisted and was warned that if he did not get out he would be assisted. lie St. John felt so aggrieved that be hunted up a policeman and finding Officer Bryan H. Silk, related his story to him. The officer turned him over to Prosecuting Attorney Leo Davis, who after hearing his tale of woe, is- sued a Warrant charging Mr. Skelly with assault. Judge Joseph R. Taylor listened to the case in the Norwalk court this morning and acquitted Mr. Skelly oi‘ the charge. St. John went away to Danbury, blit came back to appear in court. He took the stand and admitted that Mr. Skelly had ‘told him to get out but said he stayed to argue the case. which his company pays llim to do. He maintained that Mr. Skelly had struck him, but the latter denied it emphatically. He said he simply push ed him out. for when he told St. .lohn 'to get' out that young man replied that he could not. Mr. Skelly was repre‘ sented by Attorney James T. Hubbell. Attorney Hubbell then asked sever al questions, d when he inquired how many if ” was told to get out of the "’i a said they were without mini 6 he did not know. St. John was then asked why he did not go out when he was told, and he replied'that he was there on business ahd'thw he‘lipdra right to stay th'dl‘e. " ‘ .. 5‘ ' Mr. Skelly was called to the stand and testified. He stated that the young man oaine into the office, when he was busy in the afternoon, and said, "Well, here l. am again,".to which Mr. Skelly told him to comenround in September After some arguing, Mr. Skelly stated he told the man to get out of the office and be positively refused, and hethen Mr. Skelly said the young man then‘ told him he could not pllt him out, and he then got up from his chair, walked to the rail, put his hand back of the man's neck, and pushed him out so that he went up against a partition but he did notpunch him. Judge Taylor stated that Mr. Skelly had the rigiltto eject-the man as h( did after he had told him to go. Hi said it was one man's word against the other, and Mr. Skclly's was thi strongest case in many points. Taking up StrJohu’s claim that. ilir‘ face was injured. the judge said that this might have occurred when Mr Skelly pushed him against the parti ‘tion in ejecting him. Bicycle Rider Fined.

Politicians Decide He Is Needed For New York State.- NEW .YORK, August 21.-—-An an- nouncement was made at the National Republican headquarters today by James S. Sheraton, Republican candi- date for vice-president, confirming the Associated Press dispatch from Oy- ster Bay that President Roosevelt‘s conference with the party leaders at Sagamore Hill, yesterday, had develop- ed that political exigencies demand the rc-nominution of Governor Hughes for a second term. Chairman Frank H. Hitchcock was present when Mr. Sherman stated the result of the con- ference, and he annealed to all Mr. Sherman said. , The statement today unquestioably will put an end to the organised oppo sitlon to the candidacy of Governor Hughes, although it is possible that certain individuals will continue to voice their protest against the contin- uance of Mr. Hughes as the head of the Republican ticket. With Presi- dent Roosevelt, Mr. Taft, Mr. Sherman, Mr. Hitchcock, several News York members of congress alld other state leaders for Mr. Hughes. it is not be lieved possible that the fight against the re-nolninatlon of Mr. Hughes can gain any headway. in fact, political leaders are predicting flint no other name will he prosentcd to tho conven~ tlon. Mr. Sherman and Mr. Hitchcock ur- rived nt the Republican htuidqunrtcrs in the Metropolitan Life building, to- day, about 11 o‘clock. Tlicy trcuted laughingly the suggestion that they had avoided interview last night for the purpose of getting togetlierlon the announcement to be made. Mr. Hitchcock was asked for n ,statc- ment concerning the Oyster llay con- ference, but he said he preferred that the announcement should be made by Mr. Sherman. Without hesiiaucy, Mr. Sherman said: . "Well, the consensus of opinion among those who gathered at Oyster Bay to confer with the president, ycs- terday, was favorable to the re—nomin. alion of Governor Hughes. It. was developed by the representatives rc- ceived that the candidacy of Mr. Hugh. es is broader than the New York state lines. The trend in the state seemed to us to he decidedly toward giving Governor Hughes another term." Mr. Sherman said that no determin- ation was reached at the conference as to what course would be followed by the national campaign"managers, nor was it decided that any action would be taken. The inference from this remark was that the national campaign leaders feel that without their interference there is a certainty that. Mr. Hughes will be the choice of the state convention, and that no no- tive participation by thenl will be necessary. ~ ‘ lll reply to questions. Mr. Sherman said he did not speak for any individ- ual who took part in’ the conference. but merely sthtcd the consensus of opinion expressed. He would not re- veal Mr. Roosevelt's attitude in the Hughes matter, but. suggested that in~ tcrviewers should not probe too close. He said that no would be willing to tell what his personal view are on the subjectof the re-nomination of Mr. Hughes, but that he'did not think it wise, in view “of the fact that he is now a national character. The fact that there has come a de- mand from the west for the upholding of the principles Mr. Hughes has stood for in New York, he stated, had much to do with the decision of the national leaders to support Mr. Hugh- es.

The residents were out in good num bers‘, and all were exceedingly indig nunt to put up the building so near tht road. when all other buildings on twenty feet or more back. There was a warm discussion on the matter. Mr. Wliccler maintained that the factory had owned that property for many years, long before many 01 the houses were built, and the peoplt ought. to have considered that soon day the factory might want. to erect i. building on its own property. The people put up many strong or gulncnis, and while they perfectly agreed with Mr. Wheeler that thi company could put up a structurt there they thought It should be on i line or nearly so with the other housei of the thoroughfare.
