DANIELSON Ticket Agént Has Disappeared and $200 Is Missing from New Haven Office—New Man, Coming from Nor- wich—Local Automobilists Leave on 1400 Mile Tour—| Will Cost Less This Y. W. P. Hayes, who has been_acting as telegraph operator and ticket agent a the Danielson station of the Y. N. H. & H. Railroad company, isappeared. About $200 of the company’s money is known to be miss- nd when the auditor, who is ng up the accounts finishes his work, a still greater shortage may be shown. Haves has only been in Danielson about a fortnight and came here as a substitute for the regular operator, who is away on his vacation, Where Hayes' home is no one in Danielson seems to know, but he came here from Norwich, where he had also been doing substitufe work. It appears that on Tuesday evening Hayes forwarded by Adams express to the auditors’ office in New Haven two envelopes, one pre- sumably containing about $150 of freight receipts, the other $50 in pas- senger receipts. When the envelopes reached New Haven each was found to contain a dollar bill and a wad of telegraph blanks. In the meantime Hayes had made good his escape, getting out, it is said, on the same train that took the envelopes that were supposed to contain the money. He has been trac- ed to as far as Plainfield, where he left the train. but whether he went drom . that place toward Providence or Willimantic is not known. Hayes is about 26 vears of age, tall r. and well put up. He wore a suit of | medium brown shade and a erush straw hat when he left here. Tt is said that Hayes had been drinking for a few days previous to his disap- pearance. EXPENSES OF SCHOOLS. Cost Will Be $1,300 Less Than Last Year, J. A. Paine’s Estimate Shows. It has been learned that John A. Paine,’ as secretary of the town school committee has prepared an estimate of the expenses of the schools in Kil- lingly for . the fiscal vear that will commence in September, that will be about $1,300 less than the one sub- mitted 8 year ago. This substantial reduction has been made possible by the exercise of economy wherever possible and without impairing in any way the efficiency of the teaching or- ganization. While in a very few in- stances teachers have been granted small advances in salaries, other places, including the principaiship of the high school, have been filled at a saving over last vear. The list of the successful candidates for entrance to the high school will be announced in a few days and the class going in will be a large one. Progress On New State Road. “Road closed, keep out,” is the warning written on the signs marking the ends of the section of highway between Elmville and Dayville where the work of building the new piece of state road is being built.

The road roller and other high- wey building apparatus of the town is- at the job, which will probably be complcte sometime during _ October and will constitute a fine piece of road work. i 1400 MILE MOTOR TRIP.

Searls Mome—Death of Mrs. Melissa Fisher. Striking Italian laborers to the num- ber of about a dogen, and who have been in the employ of the Contecticut ‘Contracting company, bullding one of the sections of sewer, ave the police concern Thursday when they threat- ened to fight if any attempt was made by the company to fill their places. The whola trouble originates over the fact that the men, up to Thursday night, had been unable to collect five weeks' pay ‘due them. They quit the job Tuesday and have been awaiting a Eettlement since then. Thursday morn- ing an agent of the company made his appearance in Putnam and had a con- ference with the men. v Two Weeks' Pay Offered. They say he offered them two week: pay as an inducement gs £0 baeck ti work, but they demanded the fuil amount due before they would go back to work. Some fiery talk ensued when the agent said he would fill their places with other men. . Threatened Trouble. The leader of the gang later tol Captain Murray of the police that if the attempt was made to put new men into the trench there would be trouble. Captain Murray came back at this defi ith the announcement that if there was any trouble it would be promptly and radically squelched and those that engaged in it would be locked up. This ultimatum was received with some grumbling, but it carried weight. The agent of the company alse announced his intention 5f getting other men to finish out the contract, which is nealy completed, but he did not do 80 Thurs- day. Took Legal Action. During the afternoon ten of the strikers appeared in the office of a legnl firm and took action for the collecti of the amount due them. They were in a quiet but not pleasant state of mind. Just how the matter will be adjusted was uncertain Thursday, but a -lan to have the city guarantee the men's wages for the time that it will take 1o complete the section of sewer was be- ing worked out and the men may go back to work under siich an arrange- ment today. Peter Suzio of New Britain is treasurer of the compan but he has not put in an appearance of late. Work Has Been Delayed. The contract that this company has proved an =exasperating one. called for the laving of sewer through the ledges in the vacant lots between the river and Elm street as far nortl as Water street. The work has provad extremely tedious and difficuit. The contract should have been completed in December of lazt year, but it is still to be finished. Just what the financial strength the company having the contract is. is uncertain, “but the fact remains that an attachment was recently placed upon money due creditors in the amount of $4,500.
