As was indicated by the abrupt
ending of the conference between
the trolleymens' board and Presi-
dent John K. Punderford of the
Connecticut Company in New iiav-
on Wednesday afternoon. the wage
dispute will be arliitrated by repre-
sentatives of both sides and a neu-
tral representative to be chosen by
the opposing forces.

Formal notice was given yester-
day to the Connecticut Company in
New Haven, that the joint execu-
tive board of the trolleymcns union
had agreed to submit the contro-
versy to an arbitration board. and
had selected Jamcs l-i. Vahey of
Boston as its representative. The
Connecticut Company selected .105.
F. Berry of Hartford to uphold its
interests in the dispute. Both of
these nrliiters represented the re-
spective parties iii the last wage
arbitration between thc Connecti-
cut Company and its employees.

In the former arbitration confer-
once Mr. Berry and Mrs. Vahey
agreed upon Justice John K. Beach
of New Haven as the third member
of the board. but it could not be de-
termined yesterday whether Jtlstice
Beach. if requested. will again serve
in that capacity. Mr. Berry is on a
Western trip.

The trolleymcn have demanded
an increase of wages. and adjust-
ment of working schedule to make
the working hours continuous, a'
the application of seniority rights
for operators of motor buses.

The present rates of pay for the
operators of one-man trolleys is 67
cents an hour. Trolleymen on two-
man cars receive 60 cents an hour.

Another counterfeit bill made its
appearance in Norwalk this morning.
This time it was a new $5 bill

that was presented to Louis G.

the South Norwalk Trust company.
who immediately saw that it was a
counterfeit,

A local merchant brought his de-
posit in to Mr. Soderstrom early this
morning and the bill was with it.

Soul is Green

The bill had a. few colored lines
representing the silk fibre of the
genuine. The seal is green instead
of blue. in the center of the bill
is a portrait of Lincoln which is a
very bad one and the lines of the
lathe. work 6n the border of the face
are badly broken and disconnected.

It has the check letter B on it
and the number is 21,950,260 of the
series of 1914. It has the name of
Secretary of the Treasury A. W,
Mellon and Treasurer of the l'nited

given him the bill.

RUMSON. N. J.. July tin—(AP).
The bodies of Sergeant Detective
Henry D. Walling. of Long Branch.
and Miss Mary A. Linzmayer. of At-
lantic Highlands. were found in a
limousine in \Vard avenue early to-
day. Both had been shot through the
heart. Police said that whether it
was a case of murder or suicide
would depend largely upon whether
a revolver found in the car was of
the kind used by the Long Branch
officers.

Walling was 28 years old and a son
of Chief of Police William D. Wall-
ing. of Long Branch. He was mar-
ricd and had one child.

First District Post Office
Moves; Service th Disturbed

 

The Norwalk post office is in its
new home on the corner of Wall
and High’streets.

The present quarters are the larg-
est that the first district has had.

Three thousand two hundred
square feet constitute the floor
space of the new home. compared
with 2,100 square feet of the Main
street. and the 1.800 square feet of
the original Wall street offices.

All the‘ fixtures have been moved
and the full force was in running
condition this morning.

The lobby will be of small dimen-
stone for two or three months until
new equipment is installed.

It is expected that, the Corbin
Lock Company will be awarded the
contract fer the new equipment.

Postmaster C. Irving Bylngton
and assistant Postmaster. Stephen

. ,

 

Bray were at #work until about 1:30
o'clock this morning getting every-
thing ready. and were able to dis-
card their keys to the Main street
location at the opening hour this
morning.

Service has not been delayed: de-
liveries were made on schedule
time. Larger space will facilitate
the sorting of mail. and a loading
place for trucks in the garage in the
four will result in greater efiiciency.

Until new fixtures arrive the post
office will be open on Sundays only
from 8:30 o'clock until 10:30 in the
morning and from 4 to 5 o’clock In
the afternoon. This has been nec-
essary because of the fact that easy
access is permitted from the lobby
to the rear. and therefore the office
can not be left open without a clerk
in attendance. ‘

Is an Attempt to Sti-

Thought and Speech

LONDON, July 10.——(AP). It has
been a. long time since any occur-
ence in the United States has attrac-
ted such an amount of attention here

as the prosecution of John T. Scepes
at Dayton. Tennessee for teaching
the theory of evolution in violation
of a state.law. .

The incident has already been the
subject of numerouscabled stories
and mailed articles. and with the
opening of the trial today the papers
feature it with remarkable promin-
ince.

Some publish long detailed special
articles from their correspondents in
the United States and others display
the news agency reports. while most
of the front pages bear pictures of
Scopes and William Jennings Bry-
an.

No sympathlzcrs with the anti-
evolution standpoint have expressed
themselves publicly thus far. and all
the editorial comment either treats
the case in a humorous vein or pro-
fesses amazement that the funda-
mentalist view is seriously held by
men of Mr. Bryan's position and at-
talnments.

This, however, is not to say that
believers in the literal text-of the
bible do not exist in England, but
the view of the ordinary English-
man is probably correctly gauged in
the Daily Mail editorial today. which
says:

"In this country. where free ex-
pression of opinion has been so long

HARBOR SURVEY

FOR FERRY IS TO
BE MADE TODAY

Officials of Dulce wncox FlTnt.
Inc, announced this morning that a
survey of the local harbor will be
taken probably this afternoon. at
which time it will be ascertained
whether or not local harbor condio
tions can accommodate daily ferry
service between Norwalk and Hunt-
ington. L. I.

The "Transford." a ferry owned
by the distributors. which has 8. ca-
pacity of 40 cars and 900 persons.
has been'operatlng from Stamford.
but it will have to be moved from
there because of the lack of suffi-
cient depth of water.

The boat requires at least 11 feet
of water, and the Lock City harbor
has only seven.

Local waterfront men say that the
Norwalk harbor has 12 feet of water
at low tide.

The Flint Company will investi-
gate this afternoon and. in case con-
ditions are found satisfactory. ferry
service from here will start immedi-
ately.

COURT ROOM, DAYTON. Tenth:
July 10.—The case of John 1.
Scopes. charged with violation of the
Tennesseee law against the teaching
of evolution in the public schools
was placed in the hands of a. Rhea;
county grand jury for the second
time here today. When court con.
vened for the trial of the 24-year-
old school teacher Attorney-General
A. '1‘ .Stewart asked that the grand
jury be summoned. , ‘

Judge Raulston informed the
grand jurymen that some question
had arisen as to the legality of the
indictment against Scopes and the
case would be given grand jury eon-
slderation again. The point at issue
not elapsed after the call for the spe- ‘
was the contention that 30 days had
cial session of the grand jury and
the meeting of the body.

Change in Counsel.

A last minute change in counsel
for’the defense was indicated by the
failure of John L. Godsey, Dayton
attorney. to appear with the other
lawyers in court after his absenoo
from a conference of defense attor-
neys last night had been regardedal
significant.

Several school boys. former stu-
dents of Scopes, were called beforo
the grand jury to testify. They wet.
followed by the presentation as evic
dence of Hunter’s biology. the text
book used by the defendant. and the
testimony of Walter White. superin-
tendent of the Rhea county school.
and prosecutor of the case.
