the year when cities. usually begin to

THE HAT TIE-UP.
Concert for Trimmers, Thursday. to
‘Reileva the Monotony.
A little variety is to be introduced
into the monotony of the tie-up in the
batting trade. on Thursday, when the
members of the Hat Trimmers’ Union
wiii'be tendered a complimentary con-
cert and entertainment in the Library
Place rink by members of the Musi-
cian’s Union. of this city, and the
“White Trunk Minstrels.”
The entertainment is to commence
at 2:30. This will be the first gather-
ing of the kind since the operatives of
the factories stopped work nearly sev-
en weeks ago. The only other large
gatherings of any trade organizations
that have been held since then were
the regular meeting of the Trimmers’
Union held early in the present month.
and the public meeting which took
place in the Taylor opera house a
short time ago, at which Raymond
itobiu. of Chicago, made an address.
This absence of meetings and the gou-
crai quiet that has continued week af-
ter week, makes the situation one of.
the most remarkable in the history of
disputes between employers and em-
ployee in the United States.
The question uppermost in the minds
of most people interested in tho sit-
uation at its present stage was pretty
concisely expressed by a visitor in
town this afternoon, who asked. “Are
they going to fight it out?"
The same question has been askcii
in a variety of forms during the past
week or two. but it has not found an
answer that seems entirely satisfac-
tory, and there is still a general feeling
in this city, manifested in many ways,
that eventually there is to be a getting
together between the contestants upon
some basis or other. for conferences
and an ultimate adjustment. This scu-
timent ls notas pronounced. perhaps.
as it was two or three Weeks ago, but
the majority of the people have not yet
made up“ their minds that adjustment
is either impossible or Improbable.
As matters stand today. however,
there is no more to indicate a settle,-
ment than there was a week ago, and
the lines of combat are just as tightly
drawn. Not only is there nothing of an
official nature to indicate anything that
looks like getting together, but there
seems to be no undercurrent of talk
such as often precedes oiliclal action.
From two different sources, today,
conversations with manufacturers were
repeated, and in each instance the
manufacturer was quoted as saying in
substance: “it looks to me as though
the matter was to be prolonged indef-
initely. I see no indications of weak-
ening anywhere, and at the mceting
of our association last week it no
peered that the members were, if pos-
sible. more firmly united than they
worn at the‘bcginnlng."
0n the other side. Patrick II. Con-
nolly, secretary of the list Makers'
Association, said today:
"Not one of our members has broken
away or shown any sign of weakening.
so far as i am aware, since the iron—
ble commenced, and i don't think there
would be any use of any individual
member breaking away in Danbury.
for there Is no chance for him to go
to work here if he did."
it is known that various influences
are at work in a quiet way in hope of
finding a means of bringing about an
adjustment in this district. If not in
the trade in general. The general idea
behind these movements is that if
there is to be an adjustment it might
as well he brought about as soon as
possible, rather than to prolong a
Wllry struggle that must, if It contin-
uc much longer. be of. great cost to
this city and many, if not all of its in-
terests, including both parties to the
contest. *
Shortly before half past two this of-
terncon a. telephone message was re-
ceived at the Newa office from a prom-
inent manufacturer, who said that he
had just received a letter from parties
in another city, containing an offer of
$50,000 to move his business there. The
manufacturer declined to permit his
name to be used in connection with
the matter. and could not be prevailed
upon to do so. but said that he was
moved to bake public the purport of
the communication in the interests of
the city and its industries. He said
he had no reason to believe the letter
was not genuine, and that he was
ready to show it if a reporter were
sent to his ciiice.

NEW HAVEN, Feb. 23.~—Charics S.
Stickies and Carroll D. Kcelcr dis-
covered today in the United States
Court that the practice of working mir-
noise is a costly undertaking. Stiskles
was fined 81.000, and Kceier $750. In
their art of miracle working, particu-
larly In matters of love and courtship
and,marriage they used the mails for
the purpose of explaininig to their
prospective suspects all the wonders
of the plan and thereby fell under the
ban of the federal statute which for-
bids use of the mails for fraudulent
ends. Both paid promptly. Stickies
came from the west, and with Keeier,
who was employed in a dry goods
store, opened up a business advertising
a “lucky pocket piece." Keeier signed
himself as “Professor One. Nahomi."
The line imposed on Keeler was made
smaller than that of Stickies because
Stickies set the example.
Mtayor Hooker. of l-lartford, was
foreman of the grand jury which later
returned indictments.
