height of the basebdll fans’ ambition, as far as Willimantic goes, and Sunday these three will be the main attraction. It had been announced previously that the Singer team .of Bridgeport would play here ™waday but early.in the week news came from that city that as a city championship test was to be held that day, the manager of the Singer team would rather cancel the game with the American. Thread company. Man- ager . McQuillan of the Thread Makers' team immediacly, got in tduch with Her- man Bronkie of the Manchester team and arrangements were made for the third game of the serles between these tams. It needs’ mo booming for local fans as they rpmemberd that Manchest- er took the first i§me by a store of 3 to 1, but at Recreation park, this city, Conney won in a pitchers' duel from Thursday was to have been Wi to 0 when. Art Nichols stepped to the fore and laid out a perfect bunt for a squeeze play and Bronkie's uotfit bit the dust, while the Willimantic fans coliected a goodly share of another species of dust. Bronkie announced that Hyman, of Georgetown University, would do the pitching for the Manchester team, Hyma nbeing the man that beat the lo- cals when they played the first game at Manchester. Johnny Cooney of the Boston Braves will be on the mound for Willimantic and ca nbe expected to handle his end of the game in his usual first class style, After belng closed for several weeks while repairs were being made to the walls of the building, the swimming pool of the Y, M.

Telepione 105. ‘Walter Dickey was cheygpd Thursday with assault on William ‘Walker, a fellow employe of the L C. S. Box com- pany, the alleged assault having taken place at that plant Wednesday after- noon. Dickey entered a plea of not guilty, and after hearing the case Judge Foss continued it to Tuesday of next week. Dickey was released leaving a twenty-five dollar bond with the police, this ampunt having been handed over for his release Wednesdiy night. ‘Walker's testimony wes that he had re- quested Dickey to remove a truek that was standing near his mdchine, Walker being in a hurry to get through work. Dickey objected and both took hold of the truck. Suddenly Dickey swung on him hitting hi mon the jaw, leavink a gash requiring several stitches to close. | 1 Until this time he and Dickey had been the best of friends. Ralph G. Syphers of Johnston avenue, an assaciate work- man, told of seeing Dickey swing at ‘Walker. % Dickey stated htat Walker told him to let go or he would wing him one. Walker thn called him a vile name and made two passes at him before he re- turned the blow. He, also stated they had been good friends Qscar Peterson of Pleasant street ®id of leaving the truck near Walker but heard no names called as the ma- chines wege making too much noise. Walker did strike twice at Dickey be- fore the latter swung back. Walker went to the boss and wanted Dickey fired. Syphers, who testified that Dick- ey struck the first blow, did not see the affair as he was talking to him (Peter- son) and Sypher's back was turned. Peterson testified that he had had trouble similar to this affair, with Walker, but no blows had been struck. Prosecuting Attorney’ Sarnuel B. Har- vey called Walker and Sypher back to the stand and they admitted that Pet- erson did bring the truck but that was not i the vicinity when the assault took place. Sypher stated that he had told Anglofleece Yarns Made of best Australian Wool and Turkish Angora, and dyed the most beautiful tints and shad2s obtainable.

DROP IN PRICE OF SUGAR CAUSED LOSS OF $250,000,000 Boston, Sept. 30.—The drop in the price ‘of sugar has caused a shrinkage in wvalue of “at least $250,000,000, ne- cording to an estimate made to Atter- ney General Allen today by Edwin F." Atkins, head of & lotal sugar firm and an official of ‘several ~of -the largest companies in this country and Cuba. Stocks of sugar in this country now are enormous, he said, and estimated them at 2,000,000 tons. The attorney general an inquiry into the sugar situation with speclal reference to recent high prices, expressed the opinion that when the drop in price came the American Sugar Refining Company ' should have; absorbed some of the loss as a means of Selping small dealers who had stock- ed up at the higher prices. The at torney general said he had knowledgr that the company immediately before the decline from high prices made ii. compulsory for customers to do busi,, ness. on written contracts t}pulating prices.
