Privileged MULES.
They Were on Rapid transit business, 80
They Went Where They Pleased.

A man driving a team Of big mules,
hitched to a covered wagon, drove down
Park Row late yesterday afternoon and
pulled up opposite the City Hall plaza.
Observing that ono OF the posts which feud
wagons from that sacred space had been
removed. he deliberately drove into the
plaza The mules tapped their ears
and trotted peacefully out into the austere
expanse Of asphalt under the windows OF
Mayor Lows vacant Office A crowd
gathered. One indignant friend Of pure
government announced that he was going
to call at once on the Hon. James b Rey-
nolds and ask whether the mule driver
had any license and whether the mules
we're properly tagged
There is a police station facing the break
in the fence where the mules came through,
but no policeman came forth TO bar their
way. The excitement over this fact sub
sided when ii was seen that the driver was
on his way to deliver ten bags of cement
at the subway stairway leading to the
City Hall station.
The driver on his way out found il neces-
sary TO pull out one Of the posts on the
Broadway side He was interfered with
bv a policeman there, but when he explained
that this was Rapid Transit outfit, the
policeman evidently took it for granted
that almost anything would be permitted
and the team passed out and up Broadway.

The Canal Improvement State Committee,
which has been agit ating for labor indorse-

on the subject with labor men at the Ash

WAS headed by Gustav II. Schwab, and
among the labor men present we're Presi-
dent Sam Gompers OF the American Fed
GRAFTON Of Labor, james p Archibald and
Herman Robinson, representing he Central
Federated Union, and Coroner NJ. j. Fla
herty, representing the Brooklyn Central
Labor Union.
Gompers, whose voting residence is In this
city, has indorseu the measure, and it has
been approved by the Workingmen's State
Federation. week or two ago, however,
when the measure was brought before the
Central Federated Union for Endorsement,
one Of the delegates said the New York
people would not benefit by the plan and
discredited the idea that the canal would
ever compete with the railroads. On his
advice the matter was referred to the Law
and Legislation Committee of the c. f. U
This action was what led to the call for
the meeting last night by the watchful
Canal Committee. All the old arguments
in favor of the measure were gone over
again and 1t was agreed that the matter
should be brought before the {. F. U. and

no KEEP AFTER PROCURERS.



James b. Reynolds announced yesterday
that he intends to continue to bring to JUS
tice owners of employment bureaus who
use their business as q cloak for the
procuring Of girls. Since he has had
charge of the License Bureau, Mr.. Reynolds
has revoked the licenses Of several employ
ment agencies which he believed to be
of such character. but he intends here
after to prosecute those who Iun such
places.
Il have found" said he. Yesterday. that
there are many so-called employment
agencies which make a business Of pro-
curing girls for immoral purposes. But.
in Justice to the respectable agencies,
want TO say that the places refer to are
comparatively few when IL is remembered
how many employment agencies there are
in the city. At the same time there is
reason to believe that there are Some agen-
cies regarded as respectable which do not
hesitate to refer girls TO the worst class OF
employment agencies
"One of the worst features OF the meth
ods adopted by the procurers ia that they
will only supply dens outside of New York.
They do this because they think that by
sending girls to n distant city the risk il
minimz,d. Similarly, I understand that
the dives of this city obtain inmates through
agencies in other cities One Of the worst
features of the system is that in getting a
license from the city the owners Of these
places make II appear that in sense the city
guarantees their responsibility.

ROCHESTER,, Aug, 26-Failure to deliver
u telegram caused the discharge Of William
H. Doty, Il director of the Colonial Silver
ware Company, against which twenty-five
New York men have brought suits for
damages and preferred criminal charges.
Doty had been arrested for grand larceny
on complaint of William H. Hayes of
Schenectady Hayes had asked permission
to go TO Schenectady, promising to be here
and press a charge against Doty, but he
failed to appear,
Doty was represented by the Hon. George
Raines, and when the case vas called by
Police Magistrate Chadsey Mr. Ranes
demanded his clients discharge. Detec-
tives began to talk TO the Court, in the
hope that the complainant would appear
but after they had exhausted themselves
the Court granted the motion. and Doty
walked out of the room a free man.
In the hallway the party met Hayes
who was out of breath and explained that
his train was late and he had wired from
Lyons TO hold the examination Five
minutes later Il messenger boy stroled i'll
with the telegram. Hayes said he would
demand another warrant.
Civil act ions are piling up thickly about
the Colonial Silverware Company. A hun
bred men in New York city and in other
parts Of the East allege that they were
swindled by the Rochester concern, and
have brought civil actions for damages.
