Although running its passenger trains quite regularly, the Central Vermont railroad has not been able to do much with the freight prob- lem. The strikers seem content to let matters take their course and are qui- etly awaiting the time when their re- quests will be granted, which il thei opinion is bound to come. The rail- road officials have displayed no in- tention of relenting and hold firm to the stand they have taken. They are confident that .in a short time the conditions on the road will be such that it will be running its trains, and to this end they are working night and day in an effort to break the strike. Freight Steamers Resume Trips. The freight steamers of the com- pany, which were taken off the line Wednesday night, resumed their trips Thursday night. The freighter New York, which was tied up at the wharf | of the company in East New London, made the trip to New York with 12 cars of hay and a considerable amount of merchandise. The New London ar- rived in New London with a large cargo of freight. All the through passenger trains are being run out of New London on time, | although the passengers are few. The traing due are arriving at the Union station with considerable regularity. John McCraw, general agent, arrived at New London Thursday night. * An- other passenger was a Strike breaker who had been injured in Bratleboro Thursday afternoon by some one in a crowd which had been in a fight with strike breakers. The injured man was taken to the office of Supt. Costello, where he received medical attention from Dr. John G. Stanten. The man had several broken ribs and an injur- ed foot. Wiil Establish Food Supplies. John H. Galleher, agent for the Central Vermont railway at its New York pier. was a bpassenger on_the steamer New London from New York Thursday night. Mr. Galleher will be occupied in establishing food stations at points along the railroad line north of New London, for the strike break- ers. This was made necessary because of the fact that people, most of whom are in sympathy with the strikers re- fuse to furnish the men who take their place with food. Quarters for the strike breakers have also been prepared in East New London. Several box cars have been filled up. in which they can live, these peing the only available means of providing shelter. Previous to Thurs- day night the men were quartered on the steamer. Costello Goes to Brattieboro. Friday morning Supt. Costello de- COMPETITIVE EXAMINATION FOR ANNAPOLIS APPOINTMENTS. Two Vacancloa ta Be Filled by Con- gresman Higgins from this District.. On Friday Congressman Higgins an- nounced that there will be two vacan- cies from this congressional district at the United States naval academy, to be filled by his appointment—two prin- clpals and for each principal three al- ternate appointments for the entrance examinations, the first to be held-on the third Tuesday in April and the second and last examination on the third Tuesday in June. It has been a number of years since these appointments have been open to competition in this district. Congressman Higgins has designat- ed Henry A. Tirrell of the Norwich Free Academy, Walter A. Towne of the Bulkeley High school and Chess— man C. Spratt of the Putnam High school an . examination committee to pass upon the mental qualifications and general fitness of appointees for these appointments. . These preliminary examinations will be held at the Norwich Free Academy on the 17th, 18th and 19th of Novem- ber next, and those passing the most satisfactory examinations will receive teh appointments. Those desiring to take the examina- tion should send their application on blanks furnished by the congressman, or Mr. Tirrell, and this application should be accompanied by a report from the candidate’s family’ physician as to his physical condition, and also from the candidate’s it teacher of his fitness in ‘his studie The examining committee, whe pass upon the qualifications of candidates, is a representative one, and it is the congressman’s hope that this new method of selection will be favorably accepted. In the Second congressional district and in many others this practice has been followed in making the appoint- ments for a_ good many years. It is not recalled that it has ever been done in this district. street left here on Friday for a two weeks’ visit with friends in Meriden.

Symmpathy is altogether with the strik- ers there, and every opportunity which has presented itself has been takem advantage of to make it disagreeable for the new men. The strike breakers are not the only ones who are receiving discom- fiture along the line of the road. En- gineers and firemen running the traing are being subjected to insults and abuse from the strike sympathizers. One engineer running a train stated Thursday night he and his fireman had been the tarzet of all kinds of missiles thrown at them by people in towns through which they run. Police Call New London. For the first time since the strike was starteq a disturbance which ne- cessitated the calling of police assist- ance qccurred at New London Friday morning. Someone, thought to be a strike breaker, fired a shot from a pis— tol into the air from the top of one of the freight cars in the yard of the Central Vermont railway in East New London. The matter was report- ed at police headquarters and Patrol- men Benjamin White and Charles A. Pinney yere sent to the ene of the firing. Two strike breakers were tak- en into custody and brought to police headquarters, where they were ques- tioned regarding the shootlng. As they were able to furnish of that they were in no way respo sible for the shot, they were released by Captain George Haven. The firing of the shot was the re- sult of the hostility which has been displayed against the strike breakers by the women and boys in the wicinity of East New London. For the past two or three days this hostility has taken the*form of stoning the freight cars and the strike breakers as they went through the yards. Friday morn- ing a couple of women, assisted by several youngsters, took to stoning the cars and hurling other missiles. The pistol shot was fired probably as a means of intimidating the offenders. As a result of Friday morning’s dis- turbance the authorities of the Central Vermont railway in New London have asked for police protection. Several supernumeraries have been detailed to report for duty, and the vards of the road in that city will be policed. There is no evidence as yet that the strikers are in any way responsi- ble for the action of the women and boys toward the strike breake The strikers have asserted that they will not sanction any displays of violence and that they have thus far lived up to this policy. On the other hand, one of the strike breakers in New London reported that the strikers were aware that the strike breakers are nearly all armed. OLD LYME FERRY IS 2560 YEARS OLD. Established About Time Norwich Was Founded — Washington Crossed There. Most of the automobile owners up and down the Connecticut river valley know the Lyme ferry. Many of them have paid the small fee for taking them from one side of the river to the other and have remarked at the con- venience of the arrangement, but few have realized that th= ferry between Lyme and Saybrook has had a long history and has borne noted men across the bosem of the Connecticut. The ferry is about 250 years old, older than all but two ar three of the towns of the state. It was establishad by the general court in 1662, has been ir use continucusly since, and is the oldest ferry in the state and possibly in New England. In the early days the charges were twelve cents for a man on horseback and six cents for a man afoot. In 1696 the charges were, reduced to eight cents for a man and horse and three cents for a man. In those days the ferrvman did a thriving business, for this route was tha prin- cipal one between New York and Bos- ton. The officers of the king of England were much in evidence in these days, and they pestered the ferryman with- out measure, for they’ expected to be speedily taken across in all sorts of weather or at any hour of the night or day. To make the matter mora trouble- some, the ferryman was not allowed to charge an officer of the king. In 1732, therefore, the general court was politely informed by certain prominent men of Saybrook that they were “weary of carrying the king’s officers free of charge.” The court mollified them somewhat by allowing them to add a few pennies to the charge of the com- mon people. April 9 6, was a proud day for tha Lyme farry, for that day the ferry- man carried Gen. Geerge Washington across to Saybrook on his way to Ndw York. In September of the same vear four companies of Continental troops, marching to New York kept the ferr: man busy for sevaral hours. A few days after the battle of Gro- ton Heights, near New London, on Sept. 6, 1781, the dead bodies of five soldiers were carried acro the ferry and buried in ths old burying ground at Saybrook Point. Among them was the body of a lad whose grave bears th inscription: Daniel, son of Capt. Charles and Mrs. Temperance Williams, who fell in the action on Fort Gris- wold. on Groton Hill, on the 6th September, 1781, in the 15th year his age. Jabzz Stowe, who was the first to ‘bring the news of the above battle to Lyme, probably crossed this ferry, reaching Saybrook about 4 o'clock in at the W. W. Backus hospital, where she has lately undergone an operation for appendicitis. Miss Marcaurelle. daughter of Hec- tor Marcaurelle, who lives on the old Stanton farm or the Canterbury turn- pike, has lately been poisoned quite badly by poison ivy. James White, Archie Norman, Leo Jacques and Fred Caron leave today (Saturday) for a two weeks' camping at Ocean Beach. They will go down to Oeean Beach in a steam launch.
