One of New Britain's: automobile chemical engines was called to Chris- tian Lane late yesterday alternoon when a huge haystack and shed at Stiles & Reynolds’ ‘brick yards was set afire, presumably by children, and e fiercely burning hay, fanned by a brisk summer breeze, for a time threatened to set fire to buildings in the vicinity. Onief Robert M. Dame of the New Britain fire department, and Chair- man E .B.

Officials of | the brick company when questioned this morning as to the source of the fire’ were of the opinion that it was started by chil- dren who were seen playing about the place during the afternoon. Not #sactly knowing the graviiy of the gituation, it is thought that one of the children touched a match to the hay. Having been thoroughly dricil by the scorching sun, the haystack was in a mass of flames in a moment. The flames shot high into the sky and the wind carried fragments of the burning hay to. the |u4ilding. Because of the heat nothing could be done towards trying to extingmish the fire.

It was reported this morning that their | efforts are meeting with some suc- cess and there is a strone probability | that the demands of the corporation will be met. Hartford has been given until Tues- { day to meet the conditions made b the company. Should it fail, the directors are prepared to accept the proposition offered by J. H. Trumbull and other Plainville business men for the remaval of the plant to this town. James H. Carney vice president and general manager of the company, was in Plainville yesterday to look after the sites under consideration and to make preparations for the course the concern will follow if Hartford fails good. Land, owned by the Trumbull Electr: company and uated on the north side of the rail- road track near East street and prop- erty on Whiting street, near the plant of the EIm City Prass nd Rivet company, are the sites that will be considered should the company decide to come here. Both are admirable locations and either of them .can be selected by the company. The factory building will be erected and paid for by local capital, the company paying but six per cent. on the investment, with the privilege »f purchasing the preperty for its ori inal cost at the end of five yvears.

None of them is willing to discuss the matter at this time, although they do not deny that Mr. Hart's name i may be presented at the caucus. Tt is known that they have invited the former sheriff to confer with them and at the meeting the selectmanship matter will probably be considered.

London, Thursday, Aug: 12, (De- layed by Censor)—There are strong indications that Serbia will give a flat refusal to the demands announced by the Bulgarian premier, Vassil Ra oslavoff, three weceks ago, and that the hopes of the entente allies of bringing Bulgaria into the alliance will come to nougzht according to some diplomats here. Serbia’s for- mal reply has not yet been given, but those best posted in diplomatic quar- ters, say that Bulgaria’s demands far exceed anything that Serbia ('uulrl possibly yield. The outcome is being watched with | the keenest interest by the chancel- lories throughout Europe, as Bulgaria is the chief obstacle to united action by the Balkan states in joining the entente allies and thus -throwing the Balkan barrier between the centrai powers and Turkey. Bulgaria contends that by a treaty with Serbia the latter ceded to Bul- garia about 7,000 square kilometers of Macedonia, which Bulgaria was compelled by the great powers to re- linquish during her enfeebled condi- tion after the second Balkan war Bulgaria now in that the origin treaty be carried out, and that unle she secuires the return of Macedonia she will refuse to join the other Bal- kan states in assisting the allies. The present issue has renewed smoldering feuds among the Balk and much bitterness is said to have developed in the course of the nego- tiations, all pointing to Serbia’s re- | fusal to vield Macedonia and to Bul- garia withholding her support from [ the entente powers, Officials of both | sides say, e itnariine negotia- | Will be surprised tions have not vet been abandoned | ®nd freshens your and that much depends upon the at. | that short time. titude of the Serbian parliament which meets next Monday, although ' ticipate and that 'the impeo of the state will be here music upon this day of ganized labor. organizations of all kinds to .keep open house on Lal insure all visitors from ou Repair work on the Advent Chris- voints a good time, tian church is progressing rapidly and it is expected that the improvements will be completed within two weeks.
