No statement was forthcoming from the company’s offices, and attempts to get a definite statement from the strik- ers as to their demands met with lit- tle success. Many Rumors Current. All sorts of rumors were current during the day, one of them to the ef- fect that the strikers would attempt to get out about 125 strike breakers at wofk in the Farrel Foundry, but moon passed and except for small knots of men near the plant demonstration was made. Sheriff Philip Hugo arrived here ftrom New Haven about noon and later ponferred with the company officials he situation, it was said, was now in is hands, but it is understool that he hought it advisable to have state roops ready to come to the city if écessary, and that orders have beea iven for troops A and B of New aven and Hartford respectively to o0ld themselves in readiness to re- spond to a call. It was understood ere that no marching orders had ibeen issued pending a conference to be held this afternoon at Hartford between Governor Holcomb and Ad- jutant General George M. Cole. No Disorder Today. Accotding to the compnay no de- mands have vet been presented to them by the strikers. The latter, it is understood, take the attitude that if | he response of the compnay to their emands proves satisfactory, they are eady to return to work tomorrow. While the mills of the company are dle because of the walkout only about two thqusand of the men out are on strike, the others having quit as a matter of personal safety when the rtikers swept in force through th2 hops.

A cold rain which set in about noon today apparently Kept many per- ons off the streets and only normal rowds were seen about the center of the city. There was no disorder dur- of the throng scemed to view vesterday’s rush through the wire and copper mills of he Ansonia Brass and Copper com- pany, and the brass mill of the Coe Brass company, as a huge diversion \with its humorous aspects in high relief. The strikers did no parading his morning and congregating on the city's streets had no disagreeable gatures. No person was actually in- jured in vesterday's rush and the property damage, sifted down to a befinite basis, was trifling, chiefly to doors in the mills which the crowd pore down with as much eagerness as n football backfield shows in hitting ine line of its opponents. Knots of fstrikers were in a happy mood, and [while their language was not intelli- gible to many others the gesticula- tions and roars of laughter seemed to Jndicate that individuals were re: |ating their experiences.

May Close Saloons. ; Mayor Schumacker announced that he would probably order the saloons closed later in the day as a precau- Bionary measure.

Paris, Feb. 18, “ 5:05 a. m.—The Paris Journal’s correspondent at Tan- anarivo says that German agents financed and otherwise encouraged a native.plot to overthrow the govern- ment of Madagascar on Dec. 31 last. The seat of the conspiracy was at | Fianarantzoa and it was planned to poison the French officers and sol- diers on New Year's eve and either gain the native troops to the cause of . the conspirators or obtain from them their military weapons. The white officials and colonists were then to have been massacred. The plot was revealed to the au- thorities and already over 200 per- sons have been arrested and other | arrests are expected, as the investi- | gation is still proceeding. The great {bulk of the population remains loyal to France and has not been affected j by seditious propaganda. The correspondent adds that docu- { ments discovered at the German con- sulate show that plans were made fomenting an insurrection even before the war broke out. WANT PERMANENT FIRE DEPT. HERE Board of Public Safety Planning to Do Away With Callmen—Wants Five Extra Men and Engine.

Chairman Magnell explained today that the cost of the call department is $9,600 a year and about twelve regu- Jars could be employed for this gmount, bringing the number of regu- jars up to approximately forty.

He said it would make the United States the ally of the belligerent whose mer- chant marine had been swept from the seas. The senator spoke at length, dwell- ing upon the history of international law relating to the arming of mer- chantmen for defense and citing prec- edents in the record of the United States. He referred to reports that the administration was preparing to change its policy, which have been de- nied by Secretary Lansing since the issuance of the German and Austrian memoranda announcing their inten- tion to treat armed merchant ships as war vessels ‘after Feb, 29. As late as the president’s note of May 13, 191 signed by Mr. Bryan, Senator Lodge said this government recognized that “American citizens were within their indisputed rights in taking their ships and in traveling wherever their legiti- mate business calls them upon . the high seas.” Practice of All Nation “Such,” the serrator added, ‘“has been the practice of all nations in re- utterly incredible that this position should be in any way altered now or that our government should be ready to surrender the unquestioned rights of Americans to travel or ship gaods on a belligerent merchantman sub- ject to all the rules which have been established by the courts and by ail international authorities for at least two centuries. “The abandonment of those rights by an neutral government on the ground that the invention subm rines with the necessary limitations upon the powers of capture pos: o1 by those boats is inconce ible. uch abandonment could only rest on ths ground that the rights of neutrals, the rules which for centuries have been greed upon by all nations of the pro- tection of innocent lives upon vessels captured in war must be thrown aside and discarded in order that a new in- structment of maritime destruction must not be impeded in its work of death and murder. Such a doctrine is revolting to every instinct of human- ity, to every principle of law and jus- tice. of Another Side of Matter. “There js, however, another side to this matter which is of even greater importarnce. There can be no question that any act by a neutral which alters conditions created by the war is an unneutral act and placed the neutral upon the side of one belligerent or the other. “This is eminently true of any form of embargo. The war, and the war alone, has also created conditions un- der which any change at this time in the attitude which we took officially at the outset of the war in regard to armed merchantmen would be an un- neutral act. The merchantmen of one belligerent have been swept from the seas. Thercfore if we should abandon all the principles on this subject that we have ever sustained, if we should abandon the rules laid down by Mr. Lansing in his circular of September 1914, and declare that our ports were closed to armed merchantmen, or that goods and passengers from the United States could not be placed on an un commissioned merchantman, armed solely for self-defense, our action would affect only one belligerent; 1t would alter conditions created by the war, ana would therefore be unneu tral. Tt would make us at once the ally of the belligerent whose merchant marine has been driven from the ocean. [t would be a step toward war. Must Stand Firmly. “I cannot believe that the adminis- tration thinks for a moment of alter- ing the well-defined position which it took at the outset of the Kuropean war, and T believe that it must stand as firmly on this question as it has on the question of the embargo. Should it act otherwise it would accept a hu- miliation and incur a danger of war from which even the boldest and the most unscrupulous would shrink.” avest Crisis, Senator Sterling, of South Dakota spoke on his resolution to declare the senate's cencern at the recent German naval order to sink all armed allied merchant ships: He issue brought the United “gravest internatl . “Instead of yielding to the claims of the German admiralty,” said he, “their very mention should meet with vigorous protest.
