FATHER O'HAREs POSITION.
Father OHare. who was said to have
taken an active part In the GreenpoihI
disturbances yesterday afternoon, and
who afterwards received a letter from
Mayor Schieren notifying him that
troops Will be sent to Greenpoint unless
rioting and interference Win cars lS
stopped, sent a reply to the Mayor to-
day. The Rev. Father says that 1T is
false to assert that rioting occurred;
that to his knowledge there was no y1o-
lent mob on the streets as stated, ana
that he has been engaged in quieting the
people and stilling their angry passions
Father O'Hares version hardly agrees
with that of Capt Roe, OF Troop "A,
whose men apparently were more sue
cessful in ouieting the passions than
was Father O'Hare. The latter does not
attempt to explain the windowless cars
that remain in evidence against the citl-
zens of Greenpo.nt.
Up to eleven o'clock today the Bergen
street and Sumner avenue companies had
been unable to run cars owing to Grip
pling of the wires of those lines. Twelve
cars were stalled at Bergen street. A
detachment of Company G was guard
ing a number of non-union linemen who
are engaged in repairing the wires at
that point.
QUEER EMPLOYEES

of the integrity Of some of the men
brought here by the trolley companies
to fill the strikers places, have been

This morning John Mulhauser, one OF
the suspects, was arrested, and on being
searched at the station house a loaded
revolver, half a dozen ladies' gold

of other articles of jewelry were found
upon him. He was subsequently ar
