workers could chip in. but all the thirty
nine trades in the old Board Of Building
Trades were idle. more or less, except

GRUBER'S SPEECH DIED IN HIM.
County Committee Wouldn't Let Him
Orate on Cutting.

An attack on II. Fulton Cutting aud the
Citizens Union which Abe Gruber had pre-
pared to deliver to the Republican county
committee at it's meeting last night died
sputtering in his throat. He couldn't get
one fifth of those present to join with him
in request for roll call on the question of
tabling the resolution which he offered.

sprang up with his resolu ion in his hand.

Of persons yesterday afternoon near the
elevated station at Halsey street and Broad
she asked the same excited question:
what have you done with my child?'
Some persons shook themselves loose
from her in fear. and almost ran from her
presence. Others piled her with questions
or tried to soothe her with words Of SYM
pathy. She stared at all of them in the
same uncomprehending way, and replied
to everything with the question:
'What have you done with my child:'
This abe kept up for nearly thirty minutes,
her excitement increasing as time wore on
without any answer being given to her
question. At last she tried to hold several
women by force. and the cries OF her scared
victims attracted the attention Of police
man. To the policeman. who told her to 60
home and leave other people alone, she re-
peated as before:
what have you done with my child?'
The policeman had to send for an an,bu-
lance, but 1t was no easy task for him and
the surgeon to get the woman into it. She
fought against them with all the strength OF
madness and IA she struggled she filled the
air with her hoarse screams OF:
what have you done with my child?'
They took her. to the insane pavilion
at Flatbush and locked her in a padded
cell. Then the police began to investigate
the matter. II was found that the woman
had been staying for several weeks in the
Salvation Army Rescue Mission at Hancock
street and Broadway, together with her
four months old boy. On her arrival there
in search Of assistance, she said that her
