NEW WORKERS FURIOUS.
Aroused to Lyn;hing Spirit Over Murders
of Women sIldi Little Girls.
Three Men Mobbed.

Another murderous assault was add
ed Sunday to the police record of re-
cent crimes against defenseless wo.
men and girls in New York The vic
tim was Miss Ellen Bulger, a woman
Of middle age. who was attacked in
her apartments in the Bronx, cruelty
beaten, and left in a helpless state
The woman was removed to a hospi-
tai, where it was found that her skull
had apparently been fractured, her
face and hands lacerated, and her
body otherwise bruised. There was evil
dence that the woman had made a
courageous fight. From what the po-
lice were able to learn from her. she
was surprised by smooth-faced stran,
ger, perhaps forty years of age. He
was coatless and wore an outing shirt
and dark trousers. He escaped.
The dangerous temper of the peo-
pie, particularly in the foreign quar-
ters, who had ben aroused by the re-
ports of attacks upen women and girls
was exhibited Sunday night in repeat
ed instances. A cry that a stranger
had approached a child with familiar
ity was enough to start a mob.
Sadie Hamburger, aged eight years,
playing in the hallway of her tene-
ment home in East Fifty-ninth street,
late in the evening, cried out that a
man had seized her. The childs ia
ther seized George Keshner, a Rus
sian bookbinder, by the throat. The
excitement attracted 500 men and wo.
men, who fought with each other to
get a chance at the Russian. Thirty
policemen rescued Keshner, bleeding
from a score of wounds, when all his
clothing but his shoes had been torn
from him. The police wrapped the
prisoner in a blanket and hurried him
away. Sadie's sister corroborated the
story of the attack, and the father
says that he saw his daughter in the
grasp of the Russian.
About the same time Hyle Saloda,
nearly lost his scalp in Thirty-fourth
street. He was accused of having Of
fered pennies to girl of II years.
The father wanted to know why, and
Saloda showed fight
He slashed about him with pen
knife, and then knocked down a po-
liceman. A crowd of perhaps thou
sand persons attempted to reach Sa-
loda, but police reserves beat them
back and took Saloda to the station.
Louis Concalia was the victim of
circumstances. A man and wife quar-
relied in One Hundred and Seventh
street, and their youthful daughter
went out to the sidewalk and wept.
A passing boy slapped her. and ran
away. The girls cries and the running
boy aroused the neighbors, who chas-
ed the lad. The boy escaped and Con-
cola, who had outtooted other purs
suers, was mistaken by the mob for
the girls assailant.
Overtaken at last Concolia was set
upon and knocked down and kicked
until he was nearly dead The police
rescued him after he was dangerously
injured.
This wave Of crimes against women
and children has reached stage
where severe measures are called for.
Acting Police Commissioner O'Keefe
late Sunday issued orders directing
that every plain clothes officer on the
force lay aside all other work and
devote himself entirely to an attempt
to bring to justice the perpetrators

When the report was posted in the
New Orleans exchange at II o'clock
Friday morning, there was an advance
in values. The October option, which
stood at 1922 just before the report
was made, jumped to 1913 on the first
bid and then advanced to 1880 There
were similar advances on the other
options. 1t was generally expected that
the report would be buIlish in its ma
ture, but it was never anticipated that
it would be lower than II, and when
rs was posted as the condition, even
the mos. sanguine Of the bulls were
thoroughly surprised.
At New York the report was con-
sidered bullish, and there was con-
siderable excitement in the local fu-
lures market. The immediate effect

UN9ULY BOARDING.

The chief trouble in the present fin
ancial panic seems to be that the New
York banks are unduly boarding cur
Bency. They seem to have in mind
more the wants of the stock spectators
than of the farmers who have corn,
wheat, cotton or oats to sell. And they
are doing this although the govern
an emit has loaned them without interest
q vast sum.
It is best to indulge in few criticisms
IN this crisis, but it does seem as if the
New York National banks should issue
more circulating notes, and that they
BhoNld a. rapidly as they consistently
can do their utmost in aiding the move
ment of crops. The farmers are inclined
10 blame them because currency relief
comes slowly in the outlying districts,
but still they should remember that 80
days have not yet elapsed since the
scramble for cash was begun.

There is a widespread feeling, especial
