BRE4THING TEACHER PINCHED.
County Medical Society Sieuth Says woman
Prescribed for Her.

Miss Met ie Van E. Cavalier, who has an
Office at SAP Fifth avenue and says she is a
teacher Of breathing was in the York.
vile police court yesterday charged with
practising medicine without a license.
She declared that her arrest was certainly
due to msta axe as there were Judges and
other members of the Government among
her patrons. She said that she had given
lessons on the proper way of breathing
to Just ices Joseph and Hoffman OF the
Municipal Court and to Congressman Big
Tim Sullivan. These were only few Of
the prominent men in the Government
that thought there was something good in
her theory of healthful breathing, she said.
She asked her counsel, Harold Spielberg,
to call up Florrie Sullivan on the phone
and ask him to come to court and bail her
out. Florrie Sullivan could not be reached.
The woman told Magistrate Finn that some
of her patrons were prominent in society,
but that many of them were out Of town
for the summer. She thought she would
be able to get Oakley Rhinelander to 60 to
court and testify for her.
The woman was arrested on the COM
plant of Anna Molinelo. an agent for the
County Medical Society. The complainant
said she went to the office Of the defendant
and was treated for a pain in her side.
The treatment consisted of rubbing by the
defendant and advice as to how she should
breathe. She also declared that Miss Cava-
lier gave her some medicine to rub on her
body when the pains returned.
The woman's counsel asked to have the
examination go over until to-day 30 that
her witnesses should have time to appear.
The Magistrate put the hearing over and
paroled the woman.

STRIKE AGAINST UNCLE SAW
For Supplying NOn.UniOn Furniture TO
New Custom House Post once.

1t became known yesterday that new
grounds for strike had been discovered
by the union carpenters working at the
post office station in the new Custom House.
The station was to have been turned over
to the Post Office Department In Octo be r,
but labor troubles came and the dat was
postponed until June The new grievance
is that the furniture, part of which came
in sections. was made by a non-union firm
in Pennsylvania, and the carpenters struck
against putting it together. The places Of
the strikers were filled.
j. C. Robinson, who is the general con-
tractor for the building, said that the strike
only affected the post Office station. The
supplies, including the furniture. were
looked after by the Government. As the
post office station is all hut finished there
was no other trade to strike in syn pathy.
The trouble which caused the last strike
on the building itself has been settled.

geons, but they held out only slight hopes

1t would appear that Miss Crone attempted
suicide because she knew she was not going
to graduate with the rest Of her class in the
Newark High School, She was one Of the
class the graduates of which expected to
get their diplomas at the commencement
exercises next Monday.
As late as last week Miss Crone con-

not been a member OF the. High School
