Edward Murer, sixty-two years old, OF
II Delaney street, were arraiSned be-
fore Justice Feitner in the Essej Market

Post. The three men were talking whcn
Policemen Frank and Bue5se. of the
Il lriGye street station, entered the room.
They hal walked through the hallway
OF a tenement-house down the rear stair

before htey got into the pace. They
asked for beer and were informed That
nothing was sod to strangers. oc tho
"Oh. that's all right" said one OF the
officers. You needn't be AFRAID oil us.

in civilian dress, as was also the otner
officer, approached Fatzer and an.
nounced himself as ponGemsn' ana
Maurer and Keller said that II was
shame to arrest such an old man In the
tricky manner they did. POLICEMAN
Frank, they allege, began to POKE fun AZ
the old gentlcmRn's war record, ana
when Maurer called him a sneak, FRANK
Il is said, struck him violent blow In
the right eye, discolloring 1t.
Maurer claimed that he received so
many punches that he was beNi,dered
He said that he raised his hands to pre-
vent receiving any more blows. and that
he might nave accidently struck Frank.
Policeman Frank alleged that Maurcr
who is old enough to be his grandfather,
deliberately struck him violent blow
in the left eye, discoloring 1t. Justice
Feitner was in doubt as to who was
guilty of assault, and adjourned the
hearing until Wednesday afternoon
Maurer furnished $500 bail to appear at
that time Fatzer was held for violation
of the excise law.
Policeman Frank also arrested Philip
Keller of i03 Forsyth street, on charge
OF violation of the Excise law: When
Keller asked Frank why he had ar
rested him, 1T is said, he made the fol-
lowing reply:
you kicked my stool pigeon, Yud-
sky, out of your saloon on Saturday
night, and yesterday told me to arrest
you"
The saloon-keeper said he was tired
furnishing Yudsky with cigars and beer
without pay. He was held for trial on
the officers statement that he found no
one in the place, but found beer on tap.

ELEVEN THOUSAND MEN OUT
Great Textile Strike Is On in
New Bedford.
Mills silent and Operators Fill the
Streets.
(By Associated Press.)

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Aug. 90
The great textile strike, which bids fair
to prove the biggest of its kind in the
history of New England, is on.
Some fifteen OF the non union weavers
who deserted the strikers during the re-
cent Wamsutta strike are at work In
that mill. and few Portuguese are at
work in the Southend. With these ex-
ceptions, every mill in the city is silent
and the streets are full of operatives
who seem to be well behaved and cheer
full.
II Is estimated that over 1000 persons
have stopped work. Meetings of the
various unions were held this forenoon
and encouraging reports are made.
The Rowland officials and Secretary
Ross of the spinners' union. are to
have conference to-day, and 1t Is
hoped that an understanding will be
reached. This mill has always been
noted for It's good treatment of the
help and its Treasurer, William d. How
land, is believed to be anxious for a
settlement. Even II this mill should
settle with it's employees, 1t Ia thought
the other mills Will hold out longer.
Among the business rpen of the city,
however, there Is general belief that
n settlement of the whole trouble will
be made within week.
