in the Sixth ward there are ninety dealers i'll
the article and 1O5 on Hester street from
Allen to Division street.
Before the "September deal" stale bread
was cheap ranging from "a cents to l cent
for a small loaf The stuff sold at tho latter
price is moro easily imagined ana descr1oed.
It is more than stale-it is moldy, decayed or
full of insect life. In front OF Nos % ana ..
Mulberry street are three old women, bread
peddlers, who employ scruoblng olusn,
sand and water to remove tho mold from
their goods. At No. 50 is another stand
where the same business is conducted Here
the bread is contained in old gunny bass,
which have been discarded in other trades
and which reek with filth. ihey are placed
directly on the sidewalk or, wors" still, upon
the damp and noisomc steps which descend
from the street to the vaults and cellars pc
low. This variety Of the staff OF life IS 1ound
in the Italian, Hungarian and bohemian
quarters; something trife superior OBTAINS

The rise i'll tho price Of bread increased the
demand for that which is stale. The hotels
and restaurants which supply food peddlers
raised their rates, the bakers followed e1-
ample and the stale bread dealer was COM
nelled to do likewise Hardly week mad
ELAPSED after tho action of the bakers
trades unions before every peddler ana
standkeeper, as if by preconcerted move
ment, raised the price of stale bread just
trifle more in proportion to tho valuo than
was the increase in rate of fresh bread.
At a stand on Baxter near Leonard street
the dealer had made speciality OF cent
loaves and built up a large trade among tho
moor of that neighborhood. When ne ln-
creased his price, storm Of indignation was
aroused At ono time it looked as II ne
would be n.obbed, but either quieter coun-
sells or else the police prevailed and riotous
snirit subsidized. One Of the women who was

States has the feel
insiess action of tho machinery of trade
been better exemplified than by the late
corner in wheat in Chicago The four
millions made by Old Hutch, and the
Gve or six millions by his followers, are
now being paid cent by cent from the pock-
cts OF the working people Of the land. Not
long ago one large organization of New York
bakers agreed to raise the price of bread one
cent per leaf to meet the increased cost oc-
casioned by tho Chicago September deal"
A day or two afterwards the German Boss
Bakers association, u large and powerful
union, met and passed similar resolutions
The great wholesale bakers, such as Schultz
and Friedman, had taken action in the mean
timc and reduced tho size of loaves to the
extent required by the increased cost of
flour. IL other large establishments both
courses have been adopted, tho price being
increased one cent and the size decreased
from sixth to a quarter.

G portentous feature of New York life Prior
to 1870 the stale bread, cut bread and frag-

immigration Of ignorant and underpaid
foreigners, stale bread quickly became

To appreciate the poverty and suffering of
life in the great cities one should visit a large
bakery on the east slde At an appointed
hour the place is devoted exclusively to the
sale OF stale bread. The regular stock is
moved out of the way and the counters and
shelves piled high with the bread which has
not been sold within twenty-four or forty
eight hours from baking. Long before the
hour crowd collects in front Of the place.
Mem and women, girls aud boys, even little
children mass before the window or, on those
rare occasions when the police interfere, form
line that reaches beyond the next street.
At the hour there is a mad rush into the store,
more the movement Of famishing wolves
than OF human beings. There is confused
dow Of loaves in one direction and Of cents
and nickels in another, and before the on
locker can realize the fact the sale is over.
The salesmen are mopping their brows and q
little crowd who have failed to obtain their
days food are standing here and there NUT
tering imprecations upon luck, fate or provi-
dence To him who thinks, the scene brings
up tho mobs who behaved in similar wise be-
fore the bakeshops of Paris just previous to
the Reign of Terror.

merchant of this city, has discovered
that he is married to his own daughter.
Waldorf separated from his wife in Aus
tria many years ago and came to Amer
lea, He married again and had three
children by his second wife. This wife
died several years ago. One day about
eighteen months ago Waldorf met u
pretty girl on the street, who was crying,
and said she had just came from Vienna
and had lost her way. He befriended her
and took her to his home temporarily.
HIS children liked her, and he retained
her as governness, and finally married
her. She in time became mother. Re-
Gently her mother came from Vienna to
visit her, and recognized Waldorf az her
husband. The grand rabbi has been ap-
pealed to for advice in Strengthening out

rumors had the effect of sending throngs
Of people to his modest home on Capitol

Scores of his colleagues IN the house, and

IMPOSING ON IGNORANCE.
Unsophistioated Emigrants Sold Into a

sachusetts Farmers Assist in
the Nefnrious Business.

BOSTON, June 1.-THE Globe prints a
Springfield, Mass, special giving an in
terview with Polapder and wife, who
have reported to the police the following
story; They came to America three
months ago, and were induced by man
they met at Castle Garden to sign con-
tract with one Charles Parsons
of Northampton to work for
three months at $40 month,
payable at the end of the period, with a
deduction for necessaries purchased.
They say that on reaching Northampton
Parsons sent them to a farmer in Frank
lin county. They worked there nearly
three months, when they were turned
adrift, no reason being assigned, and
were paid only s3 altogether. They
tramped their way back to Northampton
and thence to Springfield.
The story is that Parsons receives $40
from farmers for every person furnished
them under such arrangements as the
foregoing There is much Indignation
over the matter. Parsons has been en-
gagged in this traffic number of years,
and has netted S40G mouth therefrom
This help is secured at very low wages,
the men receiving s100 year and the
women $50. Several cases of extreme
cruelty have come to light, where parents
have been separated from their children,
where young girls have complained of
attempts at outrage on the part of their
employers, but usually the circumstances
were such that no witnesses could be OBJ
tanned who had seen such indignities.
One section OF Parsons circular to the
farmers sUates that "being poor, and ig-
norant of our language and ways, they
expect to work cheap, To some this is
no disadvantage; in fact we rather have
them ignorant of the knowledge of our
laborers, some of the /, for such wisdom
proves foolishness to the employers"
The extent of this traffic in New En-
gland has become enormous, and not less
tkan 1000 poor people c. this stamp
have been bound out throughout New
England by the Parsons agency. They
have no redress from the most tyranpi-
cal abuse, no one to complain, who
can understand or correct their griev-
lnces, and when this confinement and
abuse becomes intolerable, as it does in
some cases, they clear out, leaving
wages, clothing and everything behind.
