Declaring the recommendation of the State Board of Conciliation that employes return to their work and the strike and wages and conditions be determined by mutual agreement was a frame-up, the strikers are determined rot to return to work.

More than 500 of the strikers remaining here attended the mass meeing today and voted unanimously- against the proposition. Pres John Quinn, speaking for the strikers, said the cutjerg welcomed intervention by the President or by the Nations War Board. Not only have hundreds of gutters left the city but many operatives in other crafts have been obliged to seek employment elsewhere. The cutters are firm in their decision not to return to the Boot and Shoe Workers' Union, and until they do the manufacturers cannot employ them. 4 'A fV'y Sv, ff.

Idem Arthur Providence, Go I. 23d Infantry. i No Charge for Alterations rf instantly killed this afternoon when the automobile he was driving on the Newburyport turnpike overturned about 22 miles from the Topsfield line. He was pinned under the car and his chest crushed so badly that he died while being aken to the Beverly Hospital. He did not regain consciousness.

Stanley vvas alone when the accident occurred, He was proceeding toward Boston at a high rate of speed. The turnpike at this point becomes a hill. As his car topped the. hill, he apparently lost control. Jt swerved toward the left, narrowly escaping collision with two other cars, and climbed an embankment.

Upon reaching the top it overturned. The auto was a five-passenger steam car. The windshield was crushed almost flat. Mr Stanley was born in Ktngfield, Me, and spent his boyhood on his fathers farm. He was educated in the village school and later attended the State Normal School, following AjTiigh he became a teacher and taught in various schools in his section until hir, marriage.

Shortly atfer this, with his brother, Freelan O. Stanley, he opened a photographic studio in Lewiston. Shortly after this, dry plates began to he used and the Stanley brothers devoted themselves to the pertection of this improvement. Thy called tneir product the Stanley dry plates. So great became the demand for these that they moved their factory from Lewiston to Newton.

In 1897 there appeared the first Stanley steam motor ear on the streets ef Newton, and ever since have been manufactured there. Francis E. Stanley was one of the first men to inaugurate motor racing in the Fast. In 19t4 he gained Nation-wide prominence by being the first chauffeur to drive a motor car tip Mt Washington. He, with his brother, built the first motor carriage to travel two miles in less than a minute.

This was clone by Fred Marriott, who some little time later was severely injured while driving one of Stanley's cars. The latter then withdrew his cars from, the racing game. hen other automobile manufacturers in Europe anil America shifted from the sltam type of motor car to the gas-oline tvpe, the Stanleys steadlastly held to the former style. Li June of last year Mr Stanley re- signed the presidency of the Stanley and Prescott Warren, a son-in-law, was elected to the position. MISSING I.leut At illiam Litchlnirg, in Aviation service.

WASHINGTON, July 31 Control pf telephone arid telegraph lines wi3 taken over at midnight tonight by the Postoffice Department and their operation placed under the general supervision of a special committee created for the purpose by Postmaster General Burleson.

Mr Burleson announced that until further notice the companies will continue operation in the ordinary -course, and that all officers and employes will continue in the performance of their present duties on the same terms ef employment. The plan is. however, to coordinate the facilities of the various companies to the best interest of the public and the stockholders. Regular dividends heretofore declared and maturing interest, on bonds, debentures and other ooiigations maybe paid in due course. says Mr Burlesons statement, and the companies may renew or extend their maturing obligations unless otherwise ordered by the Postmaster General.

All officers, operators and employes of the telegraph and telephone companies will continue in tno performance of their present duties, reporting to the same officers as heretofore and on the same terms of employment. Should any officer, operator or employe desire to leave the service he should give notice as heretofore to the proper officer. I earnestly request the ldyal cooperation of all officers, operators and employes and the public, in order that the service rendered shall be not only maintained at a high standard, but Improved wherever possible. It is the purpose to coordinate and unify these sere ices so that they may be operated as' a Na-( tional system with due regard to the interests of the public and the owners of the properties. Investigations into wire conditions being conducted by the special committee, composed of First Asst Postmaster General Koons, David J.

Lewis, formerly of the Tariff Commission, and William H.

The statement was issued after a meeting of the companys officers to discuss continuation of their duties under the Federal regime. It was indicated that it was expected that the companys affairs would run along virtually- as usual. Mr Vail said that at a conference In AA ashington. the Postmaster General asked cooperation and assistance. He was equally emphatic in the statement of his desire to conserve the properties of the companies with a view to returning them when called upon to do so to the owners in as good condition as received, Mr Vail added.

It was his desire that the owners should receive just compensation in the full sense for their use. The Postmaster General, until other instructions are issued, desired that the conduct of operations shall continue as heretofore, and also states that no changes will be made until after consultation and full and careful plosive shells simultaneously with gas shells.

May 1, 1359. Col Gaston was twice the Democratic candidate for Governor, first in 1902 and then in 1903, but those were years when the party aspirant was the leader of a forlorn hope.

Col Gaston has fought' many hard battles in the numerous fields he has explored, but of them all, perhaps, none are better remembered than his slashing bout away back in 1879 with Ramon Guiteras for the middleweight boxing championship of Harvard. Theodore Roosevelt was one ol Gastons seconds and Guiteras threw up the sponge. After obtaining his AC at Harvard 18S0, and later going through the law school, Gaston was admitted to the bar at 24. In 1897, he welded the properties of the West End Company into the Boston Elevated. After completely effecting the reorganization during' four years filled with obstacles in wljieh he raised wages and introduced workmens compensation, 10 years before there was any legislation on the subject, he passed the leadership over to others.
