Lavolta Will Attempt to
Bring Cargo of Lumber
Back From Canada.
Capt. William Bolletta, of Boston,
arrived in this city today with the ex
press Intention of taking the three
masted schooner Lavolta, American
registry, ' from Bridgeport to New
York, thence to Halifax, N. S. This
is the first schooner to clear from this
port since January for Canadian
waters and the third since Jan. 1.
The Lavolta has been tied up in the
West End waiting , ror diminished
stress of weather and clearance from
war dangers. Her former captain is
said to have relinquished charge of
the vessel when owners asked for the
passage to be chanced. ,
Captain Bolletta is known among
Down East captains to be fearless and
it is believed that under his naviga
tion the vessel will make Halifax and
return with a load of lumber, which is
at a premium today. The local har
bor and also all ports along the At
lantic coast are filled with vessels
which are tied up because of war dan

cials. .
Work by carpenters on all jobs
throughout the country, held by ,the
Austin Construction Co. will cease un
til the dispute is adjusted, Mr. Sullivan
declared, t '.
"If an attempt is made In this city
to put non-union men in the (places of
the union carpenters, all the building
traides workers on the jobs will quit,"
Mr. Sullivan asserted, "through the
enforcement of the 'No card, no work'
rule."
Stoppage of work at the Projectile
Co. la looked upon as serious at this
time because this plant is said to have
received orders from the United
States government.i
The 'jurisdictional dispute is some
what similar : to the one that was a
primary cause of the great Remington
Arms Co. strike two summers ago
when the carpenters ' and the. machin
ists were at odds concerning jurisdic
tion over millwrights.
The present dispute has come to the
attention of the American Federation
of 'Labor at several conferences and
at the last,- it was ordered settled by
April 1, 1917. Committees have been
appointed from each uifion o confer
on the; matter with the object of mak
ing a settlement, the only satisfactory
end of which, according to the car
penters, will be concession by the met
al 'trades workers.
. - In a local dispute at New York sev
eral years ago, Mayor Gaynor, acting
as arbitrator awarded the work to
the carpenters.
Derby Cars Express

The Connecticut Co. has decided tu
run all Derby cars "express" - to and
from ' Stratford Center, instead of to
the Bridgeport city line as at -present,
as a result of the protests of residents-
of Shelton, Derby, and Paradise Green.
Commuters living ; In these districts
protested that' Stratford, people crowd
the cars, leaving nothing but standing
room for other patrons of the com
pany and not even that. . '
The result has been, the commuters
allege, that they were subjected to
danger of Injury by accident Jbeoause'
of the car. crews running at excessive
speed to make up lost time, after fre
quent stops between Paradise Green
and this city to let off Stratford pas
sengers. Denies He Accused

Mr. Keller said his remarks had been
misconstrued. . He did say' there had
been a sheriff in former years who
