PALISADES RUIN GOES ON
4 Contractor Destroys Picturesque
Cliffs Opposite Yonkers, N. Y.
HE HAS NOT BEEN PAID TO STOP

r. 81. GaIlican, Who is Ripping Up the
Cliffs in An Alarming Fashion, Says
His Price is $4,000 - "Commission
Is Working Slowly at Present." Saws q
Member-Ruin Near Indian Head.
Yopkers, n. Y.-Destructior of the Pal
isades by quarrying continues, despite
the acts Of the Legislatures of the States
of New York and New Jersey and the
large appropriations Of money made
through both public and private
sources. Agitation has resulted in the
stopping of one firm of contractors,
the Carpenter Brothers. who have
large quarry near Fort Lee. They re,
ceived $125,O0o.
Great as was the destruction as con-
Quoted by them. it was Of little conse-
quence when compared to that being
done by P. H. Galligan in far more
picturesque section of the mountains
opposite this city. Mr.. Galligan Is at
work with large force Of men tear
ing out boulders and crushing them in
a plant at the base Of the mountains.
The stone which Is being blasted Is
located only a short distance north Of
the famous Indian Head.
Hundreds of persons saw the result
of this work few days ago. Large
pieces Of rock. having been loosened.
started to fall from the extreme height
of the cliffs at point that had hereto
fore remained unharmed. Yard after
yard fell so rapidly that for time 1t
seemed as If the entire cliffs were
about to plunge into the waters Of the
Hudson. A thunderous roar was
created, and it required many minutes
for the fragments to reach the base Of
the mountain.
Splendid trees and shrubbery were
carried down in abundance. Boatmen
Tn the vicinity rowed for life into mid
stream, believing that the mountains
were about to tumble into the river.
This is reported to have been the larg-
est portion Of rock that ever fell at one
time. A large gaping hole Of red clay
remains to mark the spot where one
of the prettiest cliffs Of the famous
mountain formerly existed.
Mr.. Galligan, who is a resident of
this city. when seen by a reporter and
asked why it was that he was still con-
tinuing the work, replied: "Why not?
The property is mine, and no one has
yet paid me to stop. They bought the
Carpenters out and let me alone. Send
up your photographers in week. and
I'll show you some scenery. intend
to cut down several hundred feet of
rock this week"
SLOW much money will you stop
work for?"
"well, for nothing less than St2o,-
oOO."
D. McNeely Stauffer, member OF
the Palisade Commission, said: 1.-THE
commission is working slowly at pres
ent. having disposed Of the most for
mIdable contractors in the persons OF
Carpenter Brothers. We expect to
open negotiations soon with Patrick
Galligan, the remaining contractor.
The commission has $450,0OO left to

city is quiet. Leaders OF the men out
have discovered that efforts are being
made by agents of the company to break
the strike by Offering all kinds of induce

hLACKSMITHS STAND FIRM.
At meeting of the strikers this even

his men have failed thus far. The COM

crs back and offered to pay them full
journcymcn bhcksmiths' pay with perma-
nent jobs, but all refused to 90. II was
stated that not boilermakcr would go
to work until all went in Il body.
The leaders have no fear that the
company can get men to come to Read

Spring Time.
The beautiful sun is shining,
Sending forth a brilliant ray,
Softening the dead seeds as it we're,
Bringing them nearer to lifo each
day.
We gaze on this wonderful earth,
Amid all its deafness Of life,
Mortal man having no power
In vain would be all his strife.
Bringing new life and beauty
To our rich and gorgeous land
We must know such miracles
Are wrought by Gods own hand.
He sends the sun to warm the earth,
To warm all children as we'll,
The great and small, the rich and
poor,
Gods great kindness on all has fell.
As God gives life to the dead seed,
Clothing them in their robes Of
beauty,
So gives He, Eternal Life, to this
human race
If we only obey, which is our duty.
As the sun strengthens and beauti.
fies
Each little flower, as it may shine,
So will Gods wOndrous love
Strengthen your heart and mine.
Then let US look unto God,
Weak ard helpless as we are,
Leaning on His mighty arm,
Guided by the Morning Star.

EAsToN STRIKE NAY SPREAD.
Building Operations at Standstill
Because Of Boycott on Union
Iahnr

Easton, July 1.-THE attempt to
frighten striking carpenters back to
work today with the threat that their
places would be filled by new men if they
continued on strike was complete fail
ure," said Il member Of the Carpenters
Union this evening. "Not Il striker has
left the ranks" he continued, "and there
is no fear that Outsiuers will come here
to take our places when 1t is known that
VIC are merely fighting to have removed
boycott that has been placed on union
bricklayrrs and plasterers, which pro-
hibits the latter from engaging in bnsi-
ness themselves and puts out Of business
Il contractor who employs union brick
layer. The carpenters and plumbers are
the only trades unions that have thus
far called their men out in n body be-
cause of the boycott, but You can rest
assured that in day or two there WI
be no painters, electricians or tinsmiths
at work. unless a settlement is speedily
effected"
The central Labor Union has voted to
aid the strikers, and it is probable the
strike may spread beyond the building
trades. There are said to be between 500
and 600 men on strike In Easton. and
building operations are at q standstill.
