Other manufacturing com- panies, likely to be affected as a con- sequence of the passage of the schedule referred to, have also filed or are about {o file protests. The following protest is by Warden W. 1. Bullard, vice president of the E. H. Jaccbs' Manufacturing company, doing business here: Danielson, Conn., May 1, 1913. | senator Chas. F.

It is the most inconsistent tarift schedule that an intelligent body of men could possibly conceive, and I| urge you to oppose it to the last stand. Woolen and cotton mills in this sec- tion of the state are planning to cur- tail operations just as soon as possi- | | ble and plans that have been made for | | extensions and improvement have been | abandoned because of the serious conditions that must develop if the proposed cotton schedule goes Into ef- fect.

It has been de- cided not to call a special borough meeting relative to the change of the name of Mechanic street until some time about June 1st, this being due to the fact that several other matters must be considered at this svecial meeting, and some of them relative to the bullding of sewers are not yat ready for consideration.
