According to reports from members
of the striking body of garment work-
ers formerly employed in the Victoria
Waterproof Company's shop in Water
street, downtown. It appears that the
strikers are considerably “bet" up
‘over reports which have been circu-
lated throughout the city. which they
claim to be erroneous.
It is claimed by the strikers that
the. men working in the factory. get
but 618 per week at the most. for 56
or 60 hours. and that the girls em-
ployed in the factory get but 810 for
pvorking 50 hours.
The members of the union also wish
to correct the general belief that they
are. a desperate bunch who would un-
hesitatlngly start a riot, 'should an]
attempts be made to break the strike.‘
Partly in sympathy with the New
{York strikers, bttt more to better their
own conditions. the mployes of the
cmupany walked out sterday morn-
ing. after delegates arrived from
New York City. .
A meeting of the’ union strikers
.will be held tomorrow evening, at
which time, important matters rela-
tive to the continuance of the strike.
Will be considered. '

The Rev. J. Harrison Thompson.
formerly of Randolph. Vermont, who
recently accepted the call to the pas-
torate of the downtown Baptist
church, arrived in this city last even-
ing, and will preach his first sermon
as the official pastor of the church,
Sunday morning at 10:30 o'clock.
0n the second Sunday in June, Rev.
Thompson preached a sermon here,
and the Baptist people were unant-
mous in the belief that be was the
man for the position.
tion and members of the church were}
so delighted with the preacher, that
they decided at once to look for no
‘Oiher candidates and a call was there-1
fore sent to litev. Thompaon.
Rev. Thompson is a young man of
unusually attractive personality, and1
his work in past pastorates proves;
him to be not only an able preacher.j
but a keen and energetic worker. The
outlook for the church. with the newl
pastor in charge, is very promising“

Warden Zerbst today. after an all-l
night and my search had failed to
yield the slightest clew to the whore-i
abouts of the prisoners.
“Fay was a man of too much in-
telllgenco." said Warden Zerbst yes-
terday. "and too shrewd to have III-J
tempted such an escape unless he was
certain that the necessary arrange
tments had been made to take care of‘
him and of his companion. after they
reached safety from the guns of the
guards." . l
The impression is growing in ofii-'
cial circles in Atlanta that German:
sympathisers were behind the escape;
of the two men.
Yesterday more than 20 prison
guards and county and city police
were searching territory where the,
two prisoners might have found ref-Ii
uge, and messages had been sent to,
all parts of the country. The guard
whose alleged negligence opened thei
way'To the liberty of the two men,l
was questioned yesterday by'Wardeni
Zerbst. He could throw no light on'
the escape and has resigned his posi-
t on.
The escape of Pay and Knobloca

NEW HAVEN, Sept. l.——Violent
deaths in Connecticut during August
were 73, according to unoloial reo-
ords, of which 68 were accidental.
nine suicides and one homicide. Of
the total number one half were due to
drowning and automobile. In the listl
of accidental deathsrdrownlng leads
with 24 victims, automobiles come
second with 15, falls of d six, and
the remainder resulted fro various
other um. ‘ -
. Sixty deaths during the month from
Infantile paralysis were reported.

paid.
"As an earnest advocate of
prompt payments and one who voted
for weekly payments in the Con-
necticut Senate several years ago.
my sympathy with the boys at the
front was at once aroused when i
learned last night that they had re-
ceived no pay for their services as
yet. i went to the war department
this morning and found that owing
to the failure of the enactment of
the army appropriation bill for the.
year of 1916, there was no money
in that bill for them. Repeated do-
lays in legislative entrtment, col
tinued further beehuse of the veto
of the President. have prevented lhi‘t
army appropriation bill for 1917 be
coming a law until Tuesday when.
together with several other bills, all
were signed in the presence of an
admiring company.
”Meanwhile the boys
waiting for «their money. and
learned that there was no knowl-
edge at the war department up to
today that they had not been paid.
"i assume, however. that the sign-
ing of these bills will now enable
the boys to get their money at an
early day. but it. . y be indicative
both of present ' rum policy in
this respect to s stb that the army

rlos an appropriation for the pay of
the militia up to the 31st day of
December so that If the troops are
motioned on the border beyond that
time It will be necessary in the next
session of Congress to bring in a
deficiency bill to cover whatever ex-
tension of service may be called
