Willlams notified the attor- neys present that the end had arrived in regard to default cases that seemed to be arranged by counsel and without court sanction. According to a grow- ing custom, after cases, are received and continued for the customary two weeks for trial, as illustration, the at- torney for defendant does not appear. and attorney for pfaintiff announces that the case has been continued by agreement, and that seems to settle that point. In other Instances the at- torney for one side appears and with an array of witnesses, and the other side does not appear, but by some sort of an agreement no motion is made for default. Judge Williams said that in the future, uniess there is good cause for non-appearance, there will be order for dispositio= of cases on the appointed day. In regard to nlsll docket cases, the court 8aid that coun- sel seem to argue as a right to discuss them and take up the time of the court. Judge Williams ruled that hereafter no action or motion will prevail after a case is continued niel, until called for trial. The case of Michelo Giana against the Vito Construction company, a book| account with labor claim of 380, was; calied for trial with John J. Dunn for plaintiff and_Herbert W. Rathbun for defendant. The plaintiff alleged that he had been emploved gp the Watch Hill road work at the rate of $2 a day, straight time, rain or shine, and that Vito did not do this. Another ar- ranzement wi made whereby Giana was to receive $2.50 a working day, but he sayvs he did not get this in- vrease. He was also sent out to hire men and told that he would be reim- bursed for all expenses, including “giving the boys a good time.” He expended $40 in this way and was not reimbursed. He was employed by the Vito Construction company from April 26, 1916, to July 26, 1916, and his home Waterbury. He said he was hired y the foreman, received orders from him and arranged as to pay and ex- penses with the foreman, who was also companv. He had not received pay for the last three weeks he worked. The Vito company agreed that the sum of 228.75 was due Giana and no more. and this sum they were read: and arguments, Judge Williams ren- dered judgment for plaintiff to recover $28.75 and costs. Luigi Firando. a resident of We. erly for:15 years, was in court under est for a first time, charged with committing an assauit on Angelo Siki- no. It developed from - testimony that a bhad feeling of long standing existed between the two men over a little family affair. and that Angelo had been ordered by Luigi to keep off the s premises. Angelo visited a relat who occupies the wupper tenement in the Firando house and as | he came m the house into the yard he was struck in the head with a piece of iron pipe wielded by Firando. Angelo did not retaliate. Iirande pleaded guilty to the charge and was ordered to pay a fine of 5 and costs. It “was also Sikileno's first appear- e in court in any capacity. and he not seem to realize that he com- ted a contempt of court when in is testimony he sald that Luig! “lied ke hel A fine of 35 was imposed but wa. subsequently withdrawn by order of Judze Williams after he ful explained matters to the offender. Herbert A. Rice, attorney general for Rhode Island, declares that the only question taken up by him with the so'icitor of the postoffice department Mr mar. in connection with the recent ruling of the department relative to the piaeing of Rhode Island in the list of “wholly dry” states was the interpretation of that section of the state law referring to “particular loca- tions.” He interpreted that to mean authorized wholesale connection with the by ense to or retail. This this contention. has made public a copy of the letter sent to Mr. Lamar bject. The letter reads: nowledge the receipt of instant in refer- construction of section 83 of 23 of the generil laws of chap tutory law for several years. In my opinion this section not ail no-license towns and cities of the ate but equally applies to lcense towns and cities ‘except at the partic- persons are au- to' sell the same, tho; zed by licens votes for license the glicensing board may grant a definite number of licenses in proportion to the population, said s being at ‘particular locations.” The words ‘particular flocations’ i clude not only the town or city, the street and exact number on the street. The same words ‘particular lo. cations’ are used In section 63 and they evidently refer to the exact location of saloons and warehouses where persons are anthorized by license to sell liquor at wholesale or retail. If thix con- struction is correct. general solicitation wonld be prohibited throughout the state. “The no-license towns in this state THE LYONS CO.

The men were then measured for uniforms. At a meeting of the Wadawannuck Tennis club, Stonington, Gilbert Collins was elected president: ldward F.

Colonel Roosevelt strode « to his chair and exclaimed “Mr. Gompers, why don't I accuse afterwards? I'll answer now when murd®r is to be answered.” Storm of Hisses. With that the 1 brought down on Mr. Gomper ider his open left hand which raised above his head. At t Juncture many of the men on the piatform leaped to their feet and the was a storm of h es, cheers n?"lmn:" from all parts of the house. When Mr. Roos velt could make himself heard went on: “I will go to any extreme to justice to the Jaboring man, but when there is murder I will put him down.’ Gompers Deeply Stirred. When the former president had fin- ished, Mr. Gompers, evidently deeply stirred, started to rise to make rejoin- der but was pushed back into his seat by those who sat near him while Mayor Mitchel, who presided, pounded with his gavel in an effort to restore order. everal minutes elapsed before it was possible to introduce Bori hmetieff, the Russian ambassado continue the meeting. As the excjte- ment subsided Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Gompers found themselves sitting side by side. Gompers Defended Labor Union It was at the close of an address by M Gompers that the colonel was recognized by Mayor Mitchel My Gompers had declared that many la boring men are in much the same po- sition as Russians under the old re- gime, read a teiezram he said he had received tonight from the president of the Federation »f Labor of Tllinois This message purported to explain the in of the East St. Louis riots. & asgerted that instead of labor unions belng responsible for them they re- sulted from employers enticing ne- groes from the south to the city “to break the back of labor.” Roosevelt Replies. “There should he no apology for the infamous brutalities committed on the colored people of East St. Louis,” de- clared Colonel Rooscvelt, in beginning his vigorous denunciation of the riots. “Justice is not a mere phrase. It has to be translated into action. How can we praise Russia for doing justice to all people when we must apologize for doing murder to the helpless? “In the past we have listened to the same excuse from those in authority in old Russia for the fearful pogroms on the Jews. I will do anything for the laboring man except that which is wrong and that 1 won't do for him or anyone else. I care not a snap of my finger for a felegram from the head of the labor unions of Tilinois Let there be the fullest investigation into these murders. Gompers Interrupted. It was at this point that the inter- ruption came from Mr. Gompers. Mr. Roosevelt alreadr had departed a lit- tle earlier in the evening from the text of his formal speech of welcome to the Ruasians to refer to the riots. “Before | greet the envoys of the new republic,” he had said, “1 wish to say a word to vou in rezard to something that has recentiy occurred inside our ewn boundaries. “Before wa speak of justice to others hehooves us to 4o justfee within our — Mesindarias. | ielar e tha —e—- The Pt Factory End Sale out Eastern Connecticut.
