Benson had given his notice to Manager Davidson. Mr. Davidson stated on Wednesday evening that he felt as.though he was being unjustly treated by the union inasmuch as he considered he had a right to hire or discharge a _man at any time providing he gave him proper notice. Mr. Davidson -said that Mr. Benson had served notice upon him three weeks ago after Mr. Dayidson had made some suggestions about Mr. Benson's way of conducting the or- chestra, at hich Mr, Benson took of fense. Mr. Benson worked out his notice and was paid in full for his services on last Wednesday but on the follow- ing day he appeared again at the thea- tre and told Mr. Davidson he was going to work there as the union had said that he must. Mr. Davidson told him that 'he would not take him back and that he had hired someone else to lead the orchestra. Mr. Benson immediate- ly took the matter up with several members of the musicians’ union with the result that the union ordered the other members of the orchestra to leave the theatre on Friday. Mr. Dav- idson immediately secured a make- shift orchestra but says the union in- timidated these players so that they were obliged to leave. This action of the union leaves Mr. Davidson with- out an orchestra unless he agrees to do as the union dictates and Mr. Dav- idson stated that he would not employ any man whom he considered was not capable of giving the service that was necessary. The union held a meeting on Wed- nesday evening to consider the matter but nothing that was done at the meet- ing was given out. Several of the members of the union stated on Wed- nesday evening that they thought that Mr. Davidson was not receiving a square deal and that the action of the union was not the will of all the mem- bers. | (Continued on Page Ten, Col.

MOTOR STREET SWEEPER BOUGHT FOR THIS CITY On Tuesday the city of Norwich through public works committee of the common council purchased the mew street sweeper for which an appropriation was made at the city meeting on Monday evening. By purchasing the sweeper on ‘Tuesday the city saved $400 as the price of the sweeper was advanced that amount on Wednesday. The price of the sweeper was $6,600.
