MAY REVIVE THE
OLD PILOT fight
Masters Yet Of Opinion That
They Should Select Their
Apprentices

Should the views Of the Delaware
river pilots prove to be in accord with
those Of John virden, president Of tho
Pilots Association, a fight will be made
against the stand taken by the Com
nissioners of Navigation ia the matter
Of apprentices, the effect Of which was
70 break down the monopoly of admit
ting apprentices. which the assocla-
ton has long enjoyed
When it was decided recently tha1
FIVE apprentices were to be indenture1'
the pilots held a meeting and drew
lots to see who should have the priVi-
lege of nominating. The Commission
ers of Navigation decided that the
n,Iots' berths we're not to be handed
down absolutely as the association
might elect. and by determined effort
procured two additional nominations.
one of these was chosen, so that the
n,lots' slate was broken, only four Of
4he five nominated according to lhe
original arrangement being admitted.
Captain virden is Of the opinion that
the Pilots Association should sho"
fight. He saws that the pilots take
ahe apprvxfices and should have the
right TO name the boys they want. ha
sharply criticised the pilots Who after
the original slate was made sent IN
nominations to the board.
~It seems to me-" he said that q
piIot should abide by the decision o.
the association in the matter. / dc
not know what viii be done. but
know how feel. and have no hesita-
ton in saying that I should favor op-
posing the commission. OF course al
nhe boys selected were the sons and
rrandsons Of pilots. even the one whc
was selected on the outside. In iaee
he is a nephew Of mine. But believe
that the pilots should have the rige'
70 say what apprentices they VII
take"

WOMAN'S GUN
ROUTS RUSSELL
George Didn't Wait to Argue,
But Started Over the
Fence
TELL DIFFERENT STORIES

Patrolman W. ]. Snyder. while on
post at Twelfth and Elizabeth streets
Yesterday afternoon. heard a shot and
ran down Elizabeth street where a
small girl pointed out a house whers
the shot was supposed to have come
from. The officer hurried into the
ward and there he saw Katie Bartee,
colored. with a double-harreled shot
gun. and a colored man. George Rus
sell. who was. making all haste to get
over a fence.
The officer placed both of them under
arrest. and in City Court this morning
Russell told the story Of what hao
happened. The Bartee woman also
told story of the affair, but it did
not agree with that of the colored man.
Deputy Judge Joslyn continued the
case to Saturday to allow Chief Of
Police George BlaHk to make an in
vestigation.
According to Russelrs story he went
TO get the gun Yesterday afternoon 10
go hunting. He boarded with the
Bartee woman at No. 1923 Elizabeth
street. He said that when he went to
the kitchen the woman had the gun,
and as he was standing in the door
she suddenly fired at him. The charge
of shot, he said. went about three
! inches above his head. and he didn't
wait any longer but started TO get
over the fence.
Russell testified that the Bartee wo.
man had threatened to shoot him.
Russell. besides being a witness. had
a charge against him Of assault and
battery. When the Bartee woman was
brought to the police station yesterday
she had a cut on her lip and she said
that Russell had struck her. Russell
denied this in court and said that the
woman had fallen Tuesday while she
was under the influence of liquor.
The Bartee woman said that Russell
set a bottle up in the ward yesterday
and said he was going to teach hei
to shoot, as he wanted her TO go hunt
ing birds with him. She said thai
Russell was standing in the door ano
she in the kitchen. Size fired out the
door at the bottle but denied that she
meant to shoot Russell. The door was
wide. she said. and she snot TO one side
Of him.
Il could have blown bis head of, D
she said, IF 1 had intended to shoo
him"
According to Officer Snyder when HI
got into the yard the woman was il
the act of blazing away q second tim'
at the man going over the fence.
eDputy Judge Joslyn held the Barte'
woman without bail until Saturday
Russell will probably be arra'gned a
that time on the charge Of assault ant
bttery.
