DR.. Curtis has prepared a map show

WAR WAKES WARM
BETWEEN TENANTS
AND HOUSE OWNERS
DiSpoSSeSS Notices First
Blow of the Deter
mined Landlords.

NEW YORK. Dec. 2s.-war actually
began today between the East Side
landlords and tenement dweIlers who
refuse either to pay the present rentals
or quit their premises.
The landlords struck the first blow.
Iispossess notices were served on three
families which have figured as leaders
in the threatened rent strike-those Of
John Baffin, John SReider, and John
Neizel. all residents in a big double
decker tenement in Cherry street
The tenants say their rent is paid 10
December 80. Landlord David Jacob
Witt does not deny it. He simply
wants the rooms. 1t is admitted the
move is designed to cripple the strikers
by involving their leaders in litigation
at the very outset.
Must Snow Cause.
Baffin. Sneider. and Neizel must ap-
pear in court the day their rent is up
to tell why they should not be com
PEELED to move out.
Jacob Wits action seems to have
made the strikers more determined than
before rather than TO have alarmed
them They think the three leaders
Will be defeated, but Will care for them,
however. and that when the cases be-
gin to pile up by the thousands the
landlords will begin TO realize the fight
they have on their hands. Their attor-
neys assure them the courts will be
swamped and that vigorous resistance
will stave off evictions indefinitely.
Leaders Of the tenement jewellers say
they have 10000 enlisted in their ranks
and now that the number is continually
increasing.
Injunctions Against Collections.
one Of their first steps will be to ask
iDjunctions against collection of rents
for all houses in which the sanitary
and health regulations are violated.
They say such injunctions can be made
70 stick against three-fourths OF the
tenements in the city.
Four thousand families have pledged
themselves to furnish accommodations
for their fellow-flghters who, losing
eviction suits. may be thrown into the
street.
The field of the campaign spread to-
day from Manhattan to Brooklyn. where
headquarters have been established and
an organization formed to conduct the
fight on the same lines as on this side
of the river.
Several landlords weakened today and
gave rent reductions Of from 81 to g
weekly. Most of them. however, are
determined to resist the strikers de-
mands.

Safety Device to Be Installed.

AS result Of the unfortunate chain of
fatalities which the railroads Of this coun-
try, as well as those abroad, have been
experiencing for the last year, there Is
great deal of activity in the matter Of In
stalling safety devices. some of which have
been under consideration for years but
which have been held in allegiance not be-
cause their value has not been sufficiently
demonstrated, but really for the reason that
the cost Of their introduction has not been
regarded as warranted heretofore.
1t Is now compulsory that every safeguard
should be thrown around the lives of the
persons whose lives are temporarily in the
custody OF the transportation companies
In this connection 1t is noted that there
Is a marked tendency to employ visual as
well as audible signals. In England new
system Is being introduced which combines
the visual and audible signals with an au-
tomato device for arresting trains which
are being moved along in violation to the
signals The visual signal in addition to that
placed beside the track also includes pneu-
matically operated semaphores of miniature
proportions placed In the cab of the en-
CINE directly in front Of the engineer. This
feature is regarded as Of especial value in
England. where the dense fogs are to be
commended with during a great portion OF
the year
1t seems as IL II would be almost i'm
possible for an engineer to overlook both
Of these signals. but in the event Of such
a contingency the train Is brought to
stop automatically. At the same time the
man in the signal tower controlling the
block which the train is moving In is i'm
repeating apparatus which gives an alarm
by the ringing of a bell and which Is
maintained without interruption until
stopped by the signal man.
