WOMEN TO PROTEST
PLAN MASS MEETING.
Say Shirt Vast Pickets Are
Unfairly Treated By Officials.

1t was decided yesterday at meeting OF
a special committee of women who take an
interest in the striking waist girls, Mrs
O. II. p. Belmont presiding, to call a mass
meeting for Sunday evening in Carnegie
Music Hall to protest against certain mag
istrates and policemen for their treatment
of the strike piokets
Among others on the committee are Mrs
Mary Beard. Mrs. Clarence Burns, Mrs
Dore A. Lyon, Mrs. Eva Mcdonald Valesh,
Mrs. Belle de Rivera Mrs. Nathan Straus.
Miss Violet Pike and Mrs. Therese Maltkiel
The organizations to be represented at the
protest meeting are the Federation of
Womens Clubs. Peoples Institute, Equal
Suffrage League, Womens Department of
the National Civic Federation, Consumers
League, Women's Trade Union League and
the Equality League of Self-supporting
women.
Another attempt is being made to bring
about peace between the manufacturers
and the strikers through disinterested out
siders. A committee of the Federation of
Jewish Organizations waited on President
/. B. Hyman OF the manufacturers asso-
citation Yesterday Among the members of
the advisory board of the federation are
Edward Lauterbach, Simon Wolf. David
Leventritt and Justice Joseph Newburger.
The offer of the federation will be sub
mitted to the executive committee of the
Associated Waist and Dress Manufacturers
to-day
Mr.. Hyman said that the manufacturers
could not agree to anything that could be
construed by the strikers as the closed
shop.
There we've hot gusts of indignation at
the Women's Trade Union League building
early in the day over rumors that the
league was going to wash it's hands of the
strike. Miss Dreier, president of the
league, said that the organization would
stand by the strikers to the last.
Chairman Simon of the executive COM
mittee of the Manufacturers Association
said last evening that if the strike goes on
it may drive a good part of the waist
making industry out of this city.
Il know of at least twenty firms
he said (which are preparing to move
their factories out of town. They will
probably take their main plants to such
places as Poughkeepsie. Newark, Hartford
and Mount Vernon, leaving branch fac
tories and salesrooms in New York
Marcus NJ. Marks. who with John
Mitchell has made two attempts to arbi-
trate the strike, said last night that he has
not given up hope yet.
1T is possible" he said that the manu-
facturers will experience a change of heart
and agree to the modification in the agree
ment which they refused to accept. 1t is
simply technical matter, allowing officers
of the union to confer with employers, and
if the manufacturers accepted it the strike
would end.

INCREASE WAGES OF 5000.
New Scale Adopted for Newark Motor
men and Conductors.

The board of directors of the Public Ser
vice Railway Company, at a meeting in
Newark yesterday, decided to increase the
wages of the five thousand motormen and
conductors employed all the company s
lines. The new scale, which means an ad-
vance of one cent an hour to every man
each year until 1912, by which time every
man three years or over in the service will
get maximum wage of % cents an hour
will go into effect January l.
The action of the company was Volun-
tary, no demand having been made by any
of the employees, and was decided on. ac-
cording to Thomas y. McCarter. president
of the company. in recognition of the 10y
atty and cooperation of the trolley crews.
In addition to the increase in wages, the
company also proposed that after the
first of the year any of these employees vol
unteering duty after their days work is
done shall be allowed extra time off. and
that all extra list men who answer all roll
calls shall receive minimum wage OF
$40 30 a week.
The directors created the positions OF
third and fourth vice presidents of the COM
pany and Randall Morgan, of Philadel-
phia and Anthony r. Kuser. of Newark
were elected, respectively. Both men have
been in the directorate of the Public Ser
vice since it's formation, six years ago.

G1YNOR RETICENT.
Department Heads Irritated at
Being Kent an DARK.

William B. Ellison. former Commissioner
of Water Supply, Gas and Electricity and
later Corporation Counsel. seems TO be the
only man really wanted by Mayor-elect
Gaynor for any office Judge Gaynor has
three times asked Mr. Ellison to be Com
missioner of Water Supply. Gas and Elec-
tricity. and three times has been unequivo-
caily refused
So far as known this is the only proffer
of the head of department definitely
made by Judge Gaynor.
j. Sergeant Cram, chairman of the ram
many General Committee. was one of
Judge Gaynors callers yesterday. 1t is
understood that Judge GaynOr has decided
TO appoint three or four well known Tam
many men to heads of departments. and
that he sent for Mr.. Cram to learn the
attitude of the organization toward the
proposed appointments. Mr. Cram was
president of the Dock Board during the
Van Wyck administration and knows all
about the Dock Department. 1t is under
stood that Judge Gaynor wanted to know
about the qualifications of Commissioner
Spooner now at the head of the Dock De
partment.
Judge Gaynor's decision TO keep the
names of his Cabinet to himself until Sat-
urday keeps the politicians guessing. The
best guessers make UP the slate as fol-
lows:
Corporation CounscI-William B. Ellison.
Edward NJ. Grout. Charles I'll. Hyde or
Mlrabeau l.. Towns
Commissioner of Water Supply, Gas and
Electricity.-John H. McCooey, Democratic
leader of Kings County.
Fire CommissiOner.-Arthur j. heete
Police CommiSsioner.-William F. Baker,
present incumbent.
President Department of Taxes and AS
sessments.-LawsOn Purdy
Nearly all these men are Brooklynites.
but there are many more departments for
Manhattan men.
A good deal of irritation is felt by vari-
Gus heads of departments over the failure
of Judge Gaynor TO indicate privately what
he intends TO do. Some of the commits
sioners have not been asked to see the
Judge at all. while others have been sent
for. Some have called on the judge with
out having been sent for Generally
TO the present not offered any one COM
missionership that has been accepted.
Mayor Mcclellan said yesterday that he
mad not received any designations from
heads of departments or bureaus as a pre-
Hminary step 10 the end of the Mcclellan
administration.

will do" he said. lit Will. of course be
necessary to await their action. When L

THOUGHT TO BE HULL'S BODY
Missing Architect Wife Skeptical, but
Will Make Sure.

Word was sent yesterday from Amity-

Huh, in Brooklyn, that a surfman of the
Glgo life saving station off Amityville.
had found on the ocean shore the body of
Il man which might be that of her husband,
Washington Hull a we'll known Brooklyn
architect, who is supposed to have been
drowned when his yacht. the Commodore.
went down off Rockaway Beach in Novem-
her last. Wreckage of the yacht was
picked up from time to time along the
shore.
Mrs. Hull said last evening that the let
ter which she had received stated among
other things that there were two pair of
trousers on the body and tan boots reach
ing almost to the knees. She said that. so
far as she knew. Mr. Hull did not have
such boots. and the fact OF the two pairs
of trousers further satisfied her that the
body was not that of her husband. She and
other members OF the family however,
may go to-day to Amityvile with the
dentist who had attended to Mr.. Hun $
teeth.
