Within a few days several OF the women

Of City Magistrates. II any action wes
taken on her case no record OF 1t has been
found. The Magistrates themselves admit
that not within their memory have u
Of these good behavior bonds been for
feited.
The Magistrate who held these fifty
women, who finally accepted a bondsman
through the intercession OF the lawyer
concerned, is still a member OF the Board
Of Magistrates. He acted strictly within
his legal rights in keeping the women
locked up until a bondsman tina was salts

is no knowledge that he was cognizant in

thing to show that he knew how the money
obtained in the auction was divided.

Silas b. Brownell, secretary OF the Bar
Association, said yesterday afternoon that
he had not yet received the formal request

When the request is received il will be

state Railroad Commission Issues More
stringent Orders TO the Central.

The State Board Of Railroad Commits
sioners made some recommendations yes
, terday in regard to the running Of freight
trains on Eleventh avenue by the New York
Central Railroad which are still more strin-
gent than those mad on May 81, 1905.
This action was the result Of a hearing that
the board gave on Tuesday to the West
Side Taxpayers Association, which COM
planned that the railroad company had been
disregarding the former recommendations
of the board. Tn board now recommends
to the New York Central:
1. That its freight trains on Eleventh avenue,
New York city. between Thirtieth and Sixtieth
streets, shall not consist Of more than twenty
cars.
=. That no freight train shall be started from
the Sixtieth street yard for the Thirtieth
street yard until il il known at the Sixtieth
street yard that there will be room in the
Thirtieth street yard for the reception OF said
train; also that no freight train be started
from the Thirtieth street yard for the Sixtieth
street yard until II Is known at the Thirtieth
street yard that there will be space in the
Sixtieth street yard for the reception Of said
train. This recomm endation is imperative,
and is TO be construed strictly.
3. Tina between the hours OF Gas and 7:l5
A. NJ. $50 and . A. NJ. ~ NJ. and 1 P. NJ. , to
800 and 4:45 10 5l5 p. Nj. no freight trains
shall be operated on Eleventh avenue.
4. That a fiagman be stationed by the COM
pany between Thirty-sixth and Thirty-seventh
streets to take care OF both crossings. That
a fiagman be stationed at Forty-fOurth street.
Also that "A laRman be stationed between
Forty-hfth and Forty-sixth streets to care for
both crossings. Also that a fiagman be
located between Forty-seventh and Forty
eighth streets to care for the two crossin gs.
We also recommend that the hagman sta
toned at Fiftieth street be directed to care
for the crossing at ~Forty-ninth street.
These recommendations are to take effect
on Monday. November S.
The first recommendation az originally
made in 1905 allowed the trains twenty
five cars instead of twenty. The old second
recommendation was to be carried out only
when practicable, instead Of being impera-
tive. The old third said that az few trains
as possible be run in he specified hours,
instead Of non at all, n the old fourth
put flagmen In only two places.
The board also passed a resolution in
structing their inspectors TO examine and
report on the condition of all ~drawbridges
in the State of New York over which rail-
roads are operated.

WANTS GOLDFOGLE'S JOB
As Counsel 10 Birth Abraham Says Gold.
fogIe Charges Too Much

Henry NJ. Goldfogle, the Tammany Inc
Hearst candidate for Congress in the Ninth
district, IL a defendant in a suit in the
Supreme Court brought by Alfred Jawor-
over, a lawyer. The other defendants are
the United States Grand Lodge, Order Birth
Abraham, and Samuel Dorf, the grand mas
ter Of the order.
Jaworower seeks TO nave the order and it's
officers restrained from continuing TO en-
ploy Congressman Goldfogle as it's counsel,
and also asks the court to compel the order
to employ only Jaworower. He alleges
that Goldfogle has been getting too much
money out Of the order for his services as
counsel, and more particularly he charges
hat during the two years from May, 1902,
to May, 1905, Goldfogle was paid IS 1883 in
fees, whereas he was supposed TO be get
ting only 81 500 a year. At the biennial
convention last year. J~aworowcr says he.
was a candidate for the position OF counsel
to the order, as were Goldfogle. Isaac
Sargent and Charles Frankel. Frankel
withdrew and a ~disorderly scene followed,
says the plaintiff, in which many OF the
delegates showed personal animosity toward
G~oldfogle.
One of Hearst's papers was attacking
Goldfogle bitterly at the time and, Jawor-
over says, copies Of his paper were

To Offset the possible political harm to
Goldfogle, Samuel Dorf, the grand master,
asked Jaworower n Sargent TO with
draw as candidates, so that Goldtogles
nomination might be carried unanimously.
The plaintiff alleges that he agreed TO
withdraw on Doris promise, as G~oldfogle's
personal representative, that the Congress
man would resign his place as counsel to the
order soon after the election and Dorf, as
grand master, would appoint Jaworower
10 I'LL the vacancy. This plan was put
through as far as the election went. but
Goldfogle has never resigned, and Jawor-
over wants the court TO compel hin 10.
GoIdfoale. through -GuggenheiIner, Un-
termyer 4 Marshall, his counsel, has put
in an answer denying that he made any
such promises TO Jaworower or that ne
has been receiving as counsel any more
in fees than he IL riEhtfully entitled TO. The
other defendants have made similar an
swers to the complaint n II Il expected
that the suit will come TO trial shortly.

Brotherhood Of Locomotive Firemen,
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen and
Order Of Railway Conductors. The lines
involved In the East up to the present are
the New York Central, Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western and Central Railroad

mands will also be made on the Erie, Penn
sylvania and other systems.

committees OF the men on the Central
Railroad of New Jersey and General SUI
perintendent Huntington in the Central

ions are to be put before me relating to n
raise Of wages and the readjustment or
shortening OF the hours of work There
is no reason to suppose there will he any
trouble. The engineers and possibly the
fremen, 1 understand, ave propositions
to submit. The committee conferred with
other officials Of the company but was
not satisfied with the result and decided TO
bring the matter before me-"
vice-Presf6ent and General Manager
william @. Besler OF the Central Railroad
OF New Jersey said there had been confer
ences and that the company would hear
from the engineers next. The relations
between the company and the men were
very cordial, he said.
Conferences have been arranged between
representatives of the men on the New
York Central and the officials relative to
readjustment OF wages and shorter hours.
General Superintendent c. F. Smith said
that the men would tie received not as
representatives OF the unions but as EN-
ployees. He also said that he expected
no trouble.
Demands were made n few days ago IN
all the railroad companies operating tug
boats or steam lighters in New York Harbor
by the New York local Of the American
Association OF Masters. Mates and Pilots
for an advance in wages averaging $40 a
Luther b. Dow. general counsel

the demands were made in the form of
requests, that most of the companies had
granted them and that the rest would
follow suit.

FRACTURED CHFLDS SKULL.
Pole Enraged At Halloween Trick Attacks
Innocent ".

A lot Of small boys slammed Albert
Rotchkosky over the head with stockings
full Of f1our last night as he came out OF his
boarding house at Sl6 First avenue. Rotch-
kosky, who is a Polish laborer, hasn't been
long in the country and did not know any
thing about Halloween pranks. He was
bound for a saloon to get a pint Of beer
and carried an agateware pail.
The Pole chased the boys and they
skipped away. He was Infatuated and
walked up and down the street waiting
for them to show up again. Soon eleven
year-old Edward Callahan walked out OF
his home at 800 First avenue. Rotchkosky
thought he was one OF the gang that had
whitened him, and rushing up TO the boy.
he struck him ove the head with the pail.
The boy fell to the sidewalk unconscious.
Patrick German, who lives at 800, saw that
the boy was hurt. and grabbing the little
fellow in his arms hoped on a passing
car and took him TO Bellevue Hospital.
The boys mother followed. AZ the hospital
IT. was found that the child had received
a fracture Of the skull and his condition
IL critical. Mrs. Callahan became very
hysterical at the hospital. and she too had
TO be treated.
The police Of the East Fifty-frst street
station house were mott fed and Detectives
Geary and McGrath were detailed to arrest
Rotchkosky They found him in a room
on the third floor OF the tenement at slS
with a lot Of other Poles. There was con-
siderable OF a rumpus before the detectives
managed TO drag him down to the street.
A short distance from the hOuse the Pole
managed to wiggle out Of his ~overcoat:
The Iieuths had him by either arm and
they found themselves holding an empty
coat. Rotohkosky ran back 10 his home.
The sleuths went back for him, had TO
batter in the door and then found the Pole
IN an overcoat that was intended for a man
four times his size. Evidently Rotchkosky
thought he could wiggle away a second
time, but tho sleuths too no chances and
yanked him 70 the station By the neck
