SAY s1ARnETT MIsREPRESENrS
Reply or the Tile Dealers 10 His Prophecy
OF Trouble I'm Bundlng.

The Tile, Crate and Mantel Association
through its president, Joseph W. Lantry,
has sent to THE Sun a reply 10 the state
ments made by Theodore Starrett in an
interview printed yesterday. Mr. Starrett,
the association declares. has been mis-
informed or has deliberately misrepre-
sented the present outlook in building
The statement continues:
He calls attention TO the alleged strike
which he states took place last week on
the Rogers Building in East Twenty seventh
street. between Fifth and Madison avenues
The fact is that no strike ~ any trade has
taken place up to the present time on TINS
building The tile contract Is held by n
member Of our association. who Is employ
ing men from the new Tile Layers lnlon
which Is not so-Called lake. spht or
scab union, but is composed OF 10 per
cent. Of the former union. These men are
working at the same wages and hours that
have prevailed heretofore. and all trades
are working harmomously with them. As
the men state that they desire TO avoid all
complications and continue steadily at
work we are not looking Tor any trouble
in the spring.
A committee was appointed yesterday
by the Associated Building Trades TO make
a second attempt TO order strike on the
Building mentioned by Mr. Starrett' =
strike was ordered week ago, but the
men remained at work, though the plaster
ers for two or three days threatened to
strike The committee ordered the p las
terers steamftters and tile layers last
evening not 10 return to work to-day.
The Building Trades Employers Assoc
citation has turned down another attempt
to settle the present building lockout
through the medium OF the Civic Fedora,
ton The Central Federated Union asked
the fede ration to try to bring about con-
ference. For the employers this state
ment was made yesterday
While we have every respect Tor the
Civic Federation refused its appllca-
ton for a conference looking to com
promise with the unions. They had every
chance TO return to work under the ar
bitratiop agreement before we formed
the new unions in their trades. Now we
regard the situation a. very promising Tor
peace this wear The unions which are
still keeping up the fight are hopelessiy
beaten. All that contractors need TO do
is to go right along making arrangements
for the building season.

They are going to tell him to leave the
city on general principles. because they
don't like his record. He doesn't have to
leave.
Commissioner McAdoo took time to see
him yesterday Afterward he said This
seems to be a reputable mining stock deal
he Is IN now. He's the same old Coleman
Drayton fellow, though.
II appears that Silver berg has been tell
ing all sorts Of stories about himself which
have led certain men and women TO infer
that he was "a man Ct large means and an
associate Of well known tinancers and
has mentioned with more or less freedom
the Arizona Consoida ted Mining Company
Of 43 Exchange place.
Richard T. Greene OF II Park Row, the
oompanys attorney said Yesterday.
y. c. Young never had any official
connection with this company nor WAS he
ever Garrett B. Linderman's secretary
At his own solicitation he was permitted
TO obtain orders for the stock OF the com
pany hut ell payments for stock were
sent direct to the treasurer through the
medium of a regularly appointed registrar
and transfer agent. Mr.. Young came to
the company with sufficient credentials
10 warrant his employment in the subor-
dinate position he occupied, but the COM
pany had no knowledge OF his past career
He will OF course b discharged by the com
pany at once.
Capt OBrien said that the company
has had it, books examined since IL
learned of ioupg's or Silverberg's true
character. but up to 8 o clock yesterday no

Silverberg admitted to O'Brien that he
had told one woman about n note for $50 900
falling due yesterday and also for another
for s60, 900 on May i. All those yarns he
said were simply fakes. He had to make
an impression, he said to be n success in
his business. He also admitted that the
paper which purported TO be a newspaper
clipping containing an account OF com
plimentary dinner to party OF capitalists
at Lancaster. Pa. in which the names OF
II. {. Frick, G. y, Lnderman Robert Ssyres
and others were mentioned was a lake
he had had made for business purposes
Silverherg was apprehended O'Brien
said. on information given to him IN con-
fidence.
PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 20 Silverberg came
to Philadelphia five weeks ago and re-
NAMED in the city for two weeks under the
name Of Young He was requested TO leave
one hotel and was refused accommodations
at two others. He managed TO make the
acquaintance Of wealthy Californian
who. with his two daughters. was stopping
at the Continental Hotel. and had begun
to pay marked attentions to one Of the
daughters when detectives began TO watch
his movements. and he decided TO move
on TO New York. At times Silverberg has
travelled with a woman said TO b
Countess. whom he married in Venice. A
woman answering the description given
Of the Countess was seen with Silverberg
here.
