RELIEF FOR SUFFERERS
Paterson Charity Organization So
ciety to Act Again.

Paterson N J.. July "A (SpeciaD.--It was deci4si
to-day that the work OF relieving the suffersngs ot
those who were rendered homeless by the tornado
Wednesday will be taken Up by the Charity Or
ganization Society. which came into life at the
big fire and acted during that trying period and
through the food with success Some contributions
have already been made. but call has been sent
out A few requests for assistance we're made to-
day and they will be promptly attended 10.
The active work OF repairing the houses and
mills only partly destroyed by the storms was
begun in earnest to-day and workmsn were IN
great demand. Where there was nothing but
sightseers yesterday there is the hustle OF work
men to-day. and the sound Of the hammer is heard
In almost every house damaged
The splendid summer weather OF yesterday and
to-day has been fortunate. and no one Is suffering
much Neighbors are doing all they can for those
who lost their homes and now it looks as II the
greatest sufferers would be the poor working peo-
pie who owned their own homes and had the m De-
stroyed partly destroyed. as they can get moth
ing from the insurance companies.
The first funeral Of the victims OF the tornado
took place this morning. when Richard HancOck
ten years old who almost decapitatsd by
falling roof as he running to his home at 70

TO MEET EMPLOYERS.
PARKS,S UNION GIVES IN.
-Four Walking Delegates WM Com
nose Conference Committee.

.s;arnn Parks the indicted walking delegate Of
+te Housesmtths and Bridgemen's Union, who
mas several times announced that his union
would never send delegate to the employers to
consider the arbitration plan, seeing defeat
staring him in the face, descended from ms hgh
horse at meeting Of the union last night and
to-day a committee from the union will meet
the employers in conference on the aroitrauon
plan in the Townsend Building. Even in de-
feat however. Sam" Parks Is inflated with
victory, for he brought it about that the union
committee is to consist OF the four walking
delegates. How they will be received by the
employers remains to be seen.
The meeting was a stormy one, as all the
meetings of recent date have been, thanks to
Parks and his faction. 1t has been known Tor
some time that Parks, despite his braggart as
sertions has been seeking way in whlch ne
could tumble from his position without serious
injury to his influence. Two letters were read
at the meeting, one from John NJ. Cornell OF
the Iron League follows:
As agreed with your business agent Yesterday
have called a meeting Of the Executive Commit
etc of the Iron League to meet on Saturday next,
at u o'clock, to confer WIN coefe m .ete d'fl
culdes existing in the iron trade
Mention of this unnamed walking delegate
was taken to mean that Parks had been pre-
pairing the way for his easy fall
The other letter was from the Employers As
sociation 1t was In part as follows:
In order that questions which have arisen may
have thorough discussion, ask that you send
a committee from your union to confer with a
committee from side, which viii include en-
pioyers Of your industry. We ask that, if possi-
BILE, your committee consist of all the officers OF
your organization and be as large as possible We
would desire to have on the committee at Il asst
fifty or seYenty-fve men from your general body
Amid boots, howls and the greatest disorder.
Parks and his worshippers succeeded in having
passed a motion that a committee, consisting of
the four walking delegates. confer to-day with
the employers.
