LABORERS STRIKE
TRUCkMEM'S HELPERS
ALLEGE DISCRIMINATION,
When There Is Work to Be Done, They
Claim Hill Bosses Give lit to HOBBS
and Greenhorns'-Will Organize.

Another strike is on among the He
brews of the Hill section. and it will
probably affect the rent strike that is
being waged by the tenants of that
locality.
This time the laborers employed by
men, who make Morton, Court and
Prince streets their stands, and who
number fifty, have quit, and through
Jacob Rather, the business agent of
Bakers Local No. 167. whom they have
engaged as their representative, appll-
cation will be formally made at the
meeting of the Essex Trades Council
tonight for a charter. The union viii
be known as Moving Laborers' Union
should the charter be granted.
In the summer time the men claim
the bosses criticise them for working
for others and in the winter time they
will not give them employment, but
hire ''greenhorns and hoboes'' and pay
them but five and ten cents a load, and
perhaps a glass of beer for their as
sistance.
There are about twenty truckmen in
the vicinity, and all have dropped the
old men and substituted others, the
strikers say. These, it is c~ontended,
have been imported from the lower East
Side of the metropolis.
The strikers have circulated several
thousand circulars printed in Yiddish
asking the union men and business
men to assist them and force the truck
owners to change their system.
In order to make their fight against
their former bosses felt the strikers
have already purchased two team
trucks. and intend to buy another in
a few days. They got Isaac Reisick,
of Isl Prince street, one of the truck
owners, to join them, and he has posted
$50 to show his good faith.
Jacob friedman is chairman Of the
strikers and Sam Gold is acting as Sec
rotary.
Our fight is going to be an honor
able fight" said Mr., Rather today,
''and if the bosses think that we in
tend TO let things rest they will find
out their mistake. If they refuse to
discharge those g%reenhorns m hoboes
they are giving work to now we in
tend to form a corporation ourselves,
and the public win not hire their
wagons or men, for they would sooner
engage a union man, who can be held
responsible and who has experience,
than trust the men the truckmen are
giving work to at the present time.
We intend to appeal to the union men,
business people and the public who be-
lieve in a live and let live motto

CAPTAIN
5 O B In
COURT
Clark, Aged Mariner, Agrees
to Support His Young
Wife.

Captain David Clark, thirty-seven years
a sailor in the United States navy. and
80 years of age, faced Judge Howell in
the First Criminal Court today, charged
with falling to support his wife. Judge
Howell tried to set CIarks domestic ship
right, but he practically failed because
Clark's wife, who now says she Is 10
years of age, refused to live in the home
provided for her by her aged husband,
Weeping bitterly as he told his story
to Judge Howell, Clark declared that he
had faced tidal waves, hurricanes and
storms in his experience, but hat in his
lifetime be never struck anything like the
matrimonial breakers.
Judge Howell decided that as the young
wife is in delicate health, Clark, who
showed a willingness to aid her in every
way. should pay her S a week until May
IA, when they will go to Keyport and take
up their home there.
The Clark woman said hat she was
married to her husband last April. They
lived together q short while and then she
went to New York claiming that she
could not get along with the woman with
whom they boarded. She wanted her own
house. and CLARK. after buying it for her,
refused to live in it. She supported herself
in New York for three months by sewing.
Later Clark came TO live with her again,
but in October they drifted apart again.
She brought her case before the Legal
Aid Society, of New York city, and they
advised her to take up a residence in this
city, and have her husband arrested for
non-support. She moved to ISL Washing
ton street and brought the complaint here
on Monday.
Clark swooned Just as his name was
called to answer the charge. He was
quickly revived and insisted on standing
while he told his story.
Clark told between %convulsive sobs that
shook his frame how he met and married
the young girl.
She was like a turtle dove before mar
rage" said thc old sailor, but after mar
rage she wa like an iceberg"
He had neye been married before, and
thought that as the girl was likely look
ing he would wind up his old days in a
home of his own. He was willing. he said,
TO live with his wife and support her, but
said that the "tenderloin of New York
appealed to her more than Newport"
Judge Howell declared that the wife was
not deserving of any sympathy from the
court and that he did not think he would
make IN order In the case.
1T has been clearly shown said the
court. "that the husband had provided his
wife with a home and money and tried
in everyway to make her happy

to SOS, 900 were announced. Outside of Pres

resignation of Professor Edgar Odell
Lovett, Phi. D., from the chair of astron-
omy, proved most surprising.

Rice Institute of Texas. Professor Lovett
is highly respected by undergraduates and
faculty and his departure is deeply re-
GREETED. He is a brilliant astronomer.
A bequest of $25, 900 from the late Profes-
sor S. Stanhope Orris, Phi. D., S. II. D., for
the endowment of scholarships, was also
announced.

BERKOWITz SILENT
TAILOR REFUSES TO AN
SWER QUESTIONS.
Bankrupt in Doubt as to Correctness of
Books-Given Hearing Before
Referee Adams.

Leon Berkowitz. the Market street
tailor who went into bankruptcy last
July and who is under $4,000 bonds TO
stay in New Jersey on a ne exeat writ
taken out by his creditors, made his
principal line of defense before Referee
Edwin G. Adams this morning a re-
fusal to answer questions on the
ground that it might incriminate him.
Some of these questions he was In
structed to answer by the referee.
Berkowitz was represented by Louis
Hood, of this city, and the creditors
who are the houses of Stern & Co,
William Eiseberg and Ginsberg Bros,
of New York, by Abraham Wolf.
The attorney for the creditors en-
ployed most of the time in attempting
to find out whether BerkoWltz mao
made any transfers within four months
previous to the application in bank
ruptcy. He admitted that before
March 1 of last year he transferred
building and Dan stock to his wire
and borrowed money on his life IN
surance policies.
Berkowitz's first refusal to answer
came when Wolf asked him to state MS
financial condition or declare whether
the paper which he (Wolf) handed him
included all items.
1t was some time before the bankrupg
would answer whether he believed ms
books were correct. They were correct
as most business books, he thought. n
afterwards said that he might "belleVe
them correct, but his answer was
stricken out. He could not ay, ne ae-
clared. whether the books Represented
