a Sailors Mob.
Four Hundred OF Them Attack a
Boarding House.
The Trouble Arises From a Strike for
Advanced Wages.
TIE WINDOWS sMASHtDIN.
Some of the Rinsleaders Arrested-The
Mob Driven from the Pier.

NEW YORK. October 30. Some four hundred
sailors formed mob in the south ward to-day
and assaulted McCaffrey's boarding house, smash
lug all the windows, but nobody was hurt. Three
or four rngeaders were arrested this morning.
The cause of the sailors mob was rs follows ::
Sailors were getting Sl4 per month, blu, the board
ing house keepers advanced wages to $40 month
and merchants could not afford TO pay this high
rate, and brought crews from Boston at fourteen
dollars.
McCaffray, who is agent asserted the shipping
agency has been shipping sailors for eighteen dol
lars a month. The men struck for twenty.
After the mob had broken every pane of glass
in McCsffrey's place. they marched to the pier at
East river where the Detroit, the ship which
the delinquent sailors were employed, was lying
to. They demanded whether there was q crew on
board, aud being informed the sailors had not ar
rived on board, the mob settled themselves down
to await the crews arrival, but the police drove
them off the pier.
The mob then turned up South street and made
for the fourth ward. The Dctiot was then lowed
out into the steam. She is all ready to ship for
Callao, but waiting for a crew.

dying consumptive, at least to try one bottle, as
40 900 dozen bottles were sold last year. and no

MIR. JoURNAL-As Anthracite or hard coal,
and also called Glance coal of the West has come
into such general use. it may of interest to some
of your readers to briefly state how it begun to be
known for use forty mine years ago. when the first
lot was mined. Blacksmiths first tried it, but
they had to have powerful bellows to keep it
burning, and they made but little use of it. When
the first small cargo was brought to Boston In
1928, the writer well remembers the fun it was
to try to kindle it at that time, owing to surface
mining only. 1t was like the slate that YOU some
times see in coal Of the present time. The stoves
had no Innings and poor draft. Soon, however,
a cast iron cylinder stove was made of different
sizes, with square base and plate in 'front.' to let
in the whole draft, and worked we'll, and some of
them are used to this day. Improvements fol-
lowed rapidly and we now can use it as we please.
1t is claimed by Capt. VIM. Day of Portsmouth,
n. H.. that he received small cargo at that place
in 1924 such may be the case but the writer has
reason to know the first in Boston was in 1928 .
In connection let me say all fires, coal or wood,
should be kindled on top, in particular in the fall,
as the hue from your furnace or stove is cold or
damp. 1t does not have to struggle through from
the bottom. By so doing all smoke is avoided in
cellar or room. JH.C.
