THEY CHASE Thee BOSS
Strikers Pursue Superintend-
ent of Garment Factory.

Pursued for a number of blocks through
the business portion of the city early last
evening by a hooting, jeering crowd made
up of several hundred of the striking gar
ment workers and their sympa thizeTs, III.
G. Curtis, superintendent at Robitchek,
Frank & Hollar's factory, was finally
compelled to make his way back to the
factory to escape his tormentors, and it
was only under the escort of a police SER
geant and four patrolmen that he was en-
abled to leave there to take car for
home
Mr.. Curtis, who seems to have incurred
the enmity of the strikers while they were
at work under him, has been the special
object Of their resentment ever since the
strike was declared last week. On one
occasion a crowd of them followed him
from the factory to Thirteenth avenue
south and Franklin, where he, it is
claimed, crawled into wood pile to get
away from them. On another occasion
the strikers pursued him through several
of the down town streets. finally giving
up the chase when he took refuge in a
barber shop in the rear of the Hyser hotel.
Last night when the factory closed Mr..
Curtis left the building in company with
Messrs. Frank and Hollar, members of
the firm. whose presence was expected to
stave off such experiences as Mr.. Curtis
went through with on the previous occa-
sions. In this instance, however. some of
the fair sex were concerned and accord
ing1y the unexpected happened The pres
ence of the two firm members merely
served to spur the strikers on to their
greatest efforts.
The moment the three men appeared
at the door of the factory a howl Of deri-
sion went up from the girls and their
friends. who had been waiting about the
entrance for half an hour or more.
Without paying the least attention to
them the men stepped briskly down
Fourth street to First avenue south. fol-
lowed by the crowd, which gained
strength at every corner
Curtis was forced to return to the fac
tory, where he summoned the police and
secured an escort to his street car
