lower and this fact Influenced market con-
ditions at this point and buyers started in

themselves facing down market. Buyers
were especially Indifferent and there was
no demand fer even the best light and

early and were slow taking hold. The

BLOCK ON BRIDGE THIS A. M.

Caused by . Train Leaving the Track
1t tho Brooklyn End.
An elevated train went off the track
In the yard. at the Brooklyn end Of the
bridge about half-pa 1 o clock this morn
ing, blocking all trains behind 1t. In fact,
the elevated tracks In both directions were
put out Of business.
Trains from New York were stalled as
far back as the middle Of the bridge. The
Brooklyn yards were full OF trains. The
trains running on the Brooklyn elevated
lines we're sent around the loop
The platforms at both ends of the bridge
for both directions we're closed to the public.
A shuttle train made one or two trips. but
did not relieve the trouble. Passengers
in the L trains got transfers both ways, but
much delay was suffered before passengers
could get from the stalled elevated trains
to the bridge trolleys.
At2o'clock this morning men we're at work
with jacks under the glare Of calcium lights
attempting to put the derailed car back on
the tracks.
The accident blocked the Manhattan
bound trains from Coney Island and Bright
on Beach. Instead of coming across the
bridge the elevated trains made the loop
at the Brooklyn terminal. Passengers
we're then transferred to shuttle trains
and trolley cara coming over the bridge.

bv the Socialists, the Socialist Trade and
Labor Alliance of this city decided yeeter-
day to form a body OF local unions in OPP
position to the Central Federated Union.
The Industrial Work ers of the World 10
opposed to and will fight the American
Federation Of Labor.
1t was announced here by returning
delegates from Chicago at the local head
quarters of the alliance yesterday afternoon
that the following officers have been organ
lied for the Workers: General president
Charles O.. sherman; general secretary,
treasurer, William E. Trautman;, general
executive board, F. W, Cronin, c. H. Meyer,
F. c. McCabe and c. Kirkpatrick:
The local representatives Of the Fedora
ton saw that they do not take any stock
in the Workers.
The Central Federated Union at its meet
ing yesterday unanimously approved a
Recommendation Of its general executive
committee requiring all the knights Of Labor
organizations represented in the body to
leave the Knights within ninety days or be
suspended by the Central Federated Union:
The Central Federated Union has general
charter from the American Federation Of
Labor and most Of its unions are affiliated
with the A. F. of L., but there are still nine
Knights Of Labor assemblies represented
in the body.
This action resulted from charges Of the
Asphalt Workers Union. which is affiliated
with the American Federation Of La Dor,
that Patrick Spellman, a knight of Labor,
had organized a local assembly Of the
Knights composed OF asphalt workers, in
opposition to Wallaces organization.

SILHOUETTE BILLS BIG FIND.
It's . Postage Stamp Gum That Denies
Humid and Hot Weather.

William F. Wood, commonly known as
Silhouette Bill" is dreaming OF auto
mobiles and country residences and copper
stocks these days.
Mr.. Wood is the Young man who cuts your
profile out of black paper while you wait
and hands it over to you stuck like postage
stamp on a neat GARD, two for a quarter.
He practised in the Waldorf-Astoria all
last winter and is now filing a summer
engagement at Luna Park. He has cut
his way around the world three times with
his scissors. The next time he expects to
cut his way with private steam yacht.
For Bill has invented an invention
Ever since he has been cutting silhouettes
Bill has been bothered by the way the gum
on his black paper got sticky in the hot,
moist weather of the seashore. The sheets
would cling together in spite OF all he could
do, and the paper would curl, making his
He has experimental for many years to
find satisfactory gum. This summer he
had an unusual lot OF trouble, and he went
at it harder than ever.
One night about three weeks ago, as he
was going to bed, Silhouette Bill had an
idea. Just as he was, in his nightshirt,
he Jumped out OF bed and worked all night
By morning he had managed to mix a
gum which, he proved to his own satisfac-
ton, would neither stick in humid weather
nor cause tne paper 70 CURL .
few days later he mentioned his dis
covery to the local manager Of the firm
from which he buys his paper. This happens
to be the biggest label concern in the coun-
try. The manager got interested and asked
for samples. And last week one Of the
heads of the firm came up from Washington
to talk the discovery over. 1t is understood
that the house has its eye on Government
postage stamp contract A gum which
viii not get sticky in hot weather is thing
which the Government has ardently desired
ever since postage stamps came into use.
The experts OF the firm are making further
experiments with Mr.. Woods new gum.
