rpr TELEGRAPH 70 TIE rRIBuNE.l


Atlantic City y. J., July 30.-As result Of
the annual conference here to-day between rep
re.entatives of the National Association Of
Manufacturers of Pressed and Blown Glassware
snd the American Flint Glass Workers Union,
over 10000 employees in the Union Flint Glass
work after short summers suspension Of four
weeks. The manufacturers refused 70 meet
the workers this year unless the wage commit
tee came with full power TO act. The convention
workers declined 10 give the committee this
power, and serious trouble was only averted
when the nanufa ctUrers withdrew their first
statement
The bright prospects in the flint glass trade
have increased the determination 10 get idle
factories started Immediately. Ten thousand
workmen besides those resuning work Monday
will go TO work August Is. Trouble is expected
over the chimneys. The iron mold scale was
agreed on, being practically the same as last
year. but the number OF moves was increased
on several articles. Workers have asked for an
advance Of 10 per cent in the punch lumber
and steamware scale. and al a late hour to-
night no agreement had been reached. though it
IS believed a satisfactory compromise will be
found. In the pressed branch scale the workers
have sixty-tive changes 10 suggest Monday.
President Thomas w. Wroe, OF the Workers
association, said tonight: We are going along
tremendously. and do not expect any trouble"

T. H. DARRAGH KEEPS CHILD.
Court Says Girl Witness Against Her Mother
May Remain with Her Father.

Justice Giegerich. in the Supreme Court yester-
day awarded 70 Thomas Il Darragh the Gus
tody Of his daughter Ruth. who had been in the
care Of his wife. Mary Darragh by ruling OF the
ChiIdren's Court. When the Darraghs separated
some time ago. Mrs. Darragh retained their daugh-
ter. who is not yet fifteen years old. They had
several disputes about the custody OF the girl ana
IN a proceeding brought in the Childrer's Court
the Society for the Prevention % Cruelty 10 Chill
dren took the ground that neither OF the parents
should have her. Mrs. Darr4gh won. and then had
her husband I'D IN police court for failure 20
support her.
the question Of the custody Of the child again
came up AZ Special Sessions. but DarTa gh had
begun an action for a divorce in which the girl
Is the principal witness against her mother. that
tribunal declined 20 interfere. Mrs. DarTagh al
legged IN haoeas corpus proceedings. IN which she
now has failed. that Ruth was kept by her father
when sent TO his home .Or her weekly allowance
Darragh declared that Mrs. DarTagh had received
male visitors in her apartment and that Ruth did
not wish 70 stay with her mother this account.
Justice Giegerich says that II IS undisputed that
Ruth lived with her mother until about July 10
when she ran away and voluntarily chose 10 go
with her father. with whom she expressed a strong
desire remain. alleging. among other reasons
certain specified acts OF improperly the part OF
her mother who denies the truth Of her state
ments.
II am convinced. however" says Judge Gieserich
lin view OF the serious accusations contained IN
the chld's AFFIDAVIT against her mother. that IL
would be unwise 10 place her in her charge. More
over the child has expressed decided preference
for her father, and is Of an age when such pref
erence should be given great weight, especially
when it IS placed upon substantial grounds. Writ
