badly injured in the Park-ave. tunnel collision
January s. left the Presbyterian Hospital and went
home last Friday. On Saturday afternoon he was
showing friends who called to him how
well he could walk his right leg. which had
been broken. AS he stood up he suddenly tainted
from weakness, and the bone which yet
strongly knit, gave way. Later in the day he was
brought back to this city, where the leg was put
in another cast. He will be confined to the hos

HOLIDAY MEAT HIGH ALWAYS.

The meat situation on the East Side under
went little change yesterday For the first SUM-
day in months the Kosher" shops were open
and did business. unmolested by the police So
thankful were the East Siders for this conces
sion that they forgot the hardships OF Increased
prices. They are used 10 high prices during
their holidays. There is a Yiddish proverb that
when the Christian has holiday he lowers
prices but the Yid uses his holiday to raise
prices.
Lambs and sheep were half cent dearer
yesterday than previously. and general appre-
henson that beef would also continue It's rise
was expressed. The real effect OF these prices
will be felt if they remain after the holidays
During this time the frugal Hebrew becomes
almost prodigaI. and spends freely. Even the
little children in the streets have pennies 70
spare The same general openhandedness that
prevails among Gentiles at Christmas occurs at
this time in the Ghetto. When the holidays are
over the real protest and the real suffering
from high prices will occur.

sFIREMAN STOPS RUNA WAY.
IA CROWD SEES HIM DRAGGED FOR A
BLOCK IN EIGHTH-AVE.

Careening wildly from side TO side, first on one
t,wheel then on the other, a hanson cab dashed
;furiously down Eighth-ave. yesterday afternoon
with its driver pulling with all his strength on
the reins and screaming hoarsely, For GODS
sake get out of the way"
His face pale with the fear Of being dashed
s4o the asphalt pavement the driver was hardly
lAble TO guide the frantic animal out or the way
of the numerous bicycle riders that swarmed
.ahead of the horse when he broke into The fu-'
irious pace at Thirty-fourth-st, on account OF
f.be sudden breaking of the strap which girdlas
the horse and holds the cab shafts al the ami
mails side A few sprang out OF the croEd
of pedestrians and made faint hearted attempts
ITO stop the runaway. but the pace was too ho1'
and they danced aside the big animal thun-
Sered down upon them.
Suddenly, at Twenty-eighth-st., a. crossto"h
rar dashed into the avenue and before the
driver Of the car could stop in response to the
scries of the spectators he was directly in the
spath of the runaway. The driver OF the cab,
which was coming down the west side of the
avenue braced himself and grasped his right
rein with both hands. Just the least bit did the
animal swerVe, and. poised on one wheel, the
cab tore past lust grazing the rear of the car.
AS he passed the cab driver sank back in his
seat and the conductor heard him cry hyster-
ically, oh thank Cod!
Al ,rr,entv-seventfi-st a man in a blue uni
form sprang out OF the crowd on the sidewalk
and dived straight at the horses bit He hung
there for block then he lost his footing and
was dragged for another block. The morse made
savage attempts TO shake him off, and increased
his pace The animal finally capitulated. The
man in blue proved TO be Martin Murphy, OF
Hook and Ladder No. II
When the driver climbed down from his box
he looked around in a daZed sort Of way. then
uhivered convulsively and dropped 10 the pave

He was taken away in the cab by two men,
who said they his friends He refused to
give any information. The vehicle was licensed

Will All that Mr.. Baker would say in this con-
nection was that the matter rested entirely with
Mr. Morgan, and that officers Of the company
had not yet been chosen
In reply TO a question to what benefits the
Atlantic Transport Company would receive from
the holding company, Mr.. Baker said:
1t will do away with all rate cutting. More
convenient arrangements for SailingS from dill
ferent ports will also be an advantage l want
to say that there will be no advance in rates
other than is controlled by the usual laws of
supply and demand
MI Baker further said that the completion of
the deal had been postponed from time TO time
because of the desire TO what kind of ship
subsidy bill would be passed by Congress.
1T has become evident continued Mr. Baker.
that the public and the newspapers do not
want a ship subsidy BILL and we have been COM
PEELED TO proceed with our plans"
Mr.. Baker produced figures to show that the
cost Of ship construction in this country is 80
per cent greater than il is in Europe and the
cost Of provisioning and OF the crew under
American law is also greater. Regarding the
contention that the shpyards Of this country
have all the work they can do, he said he had
letters from six ship building companies offer
ing to bid on the construction Of new ships. Mr..
Baker has several ships under construction in
England. besides equal number in this coun-
try.
Asked If he could give the terms on which the
Atlantic Transport Line would be taken in the
combination. he said they were still the sub
ject of conference. It is understood that the
stock will be taken in on q valuation of from
$500 to S325 a share. All shareholders will be
treated alike Mr.. Baker refuses TO entertain
any plan on other terms. Mr. Baker himself
