$500 Damage.

Fire which started in the basement
of a double tenement at 15S and $50
Seventh avenue caused a loss of s}00
to the buildings today. Mrs. Mads.iae
Maccio, who lived in the basement of
1913, left her 1~1-year-old daughter in
the house while she went to see her
physician. The fire started in her apart

Many of the neighbors of the Ne

which tended to throw more light on
the tragedy. Simon Stiesel, a grocer,
said that Mrs. Nemeth came to him
yesterday to get some coal on credit.
and that he had refused to give it to
her because of an unpaid bill. Ne
meth was out of work, and it is be-
lieved that his wife's inability to get
things for him caused his i'll humor to
be intensified. The police are continu-

GARMENT WORKERS
ARE To STRIKE


was inadvisable. but it finally sane
toned it with the stipulation that 1t
shall not be extended to shops wherein
there is an agreement between the en-
ployers and the union.
The New York strikers demand that
they be granted a / per cent. increase
in wages for week workers, a general
nine-hour work day and the abolition
of task work.
Mr.. Steglitz who led the strikers to
victory three years ago after a seven
weeks battle. will probably act as man
ager of the coming strike.
Although there are about forty coat
shops in the city the majority are open
shop" but union men are employed and
work side by side with non-union tai
Tors. The union men, however, feel that
every garment worker will lay down
his sheers and needle and join the
strike. They claim the trade is down
lower than ever before. and that the
tailors are not able to make a decent
living.
Mr.. Steglitz said today that many of
The taiIors work as high as fifteen hours
III receive from SIS to $40 per week.
IT'S busy season just now said Steg-
litz, land every tailor, whether he Is
union or not. will go on strike, for the
trade is down. very low. We expect to
be successful.
while we were expected to strik ,
today, we decided not to create any
fights or sensation by visiting the diff
ferent shops and pulling the men cut.
When we meet Thursday night and
vote to go out We may not return to
work, but, at any rate, we will be out
by Monday"
The strike will not affect the clothing
cutters, and the members of Clothing
Cutters Local No. % will remain at
work unless non-union tallors fill the
places of the strikers. If this occurs
the seventy cutters in this city will
join the strikers, and thus tie up the
work completely in this city.
Many of the garment workers who
were members of Garment Workers
iEONol 'C' -oo, "iiSh uiopohdCu, Will
make demands similar to the strikers.
There are about $500 non-union gar
ment workers in the local shops, and
the union tailors figure hat the ma
jority will be anxious to strike.
NEW YORK. Aug. 3.-Thirty thou
sand coat t%ailors. five thousand of
whom are women, are on strike today
in New York and Brooklyn, in an eff
fort to compel the master tailors to
grant them an increase in wages and a
shorter w%orkday. They also demand
changes in customs prevailing in their
work.
A general strike was decided upon
at a meeting Of the locals of the Broth
erhood of Tailors, held in Clinton Hall,
in Clinton street. The meeting was a
very enthusiastic one. Many stirring
speeches were made, the coat tai
lors seemed anxious for the struggle.
The strike has been in ogr in
Brooklyn for more than a week. Rep
resentatives of the union declare that
at the end of the week, unless the mas
ter tailors comply with their demands,
the business will be paralyzed.

MILK SHORTAGE A
SER|OUj: PROBLEM
Drenching Rain Would Revive
Fields and Diaries Are Long
ing for 1t.

The milk shortage still presents a
serious aspect TO those In charge of
furnishing Newark with its daily sup
ply. The shortage Is growing greater
and unless there is a sudden change In
the weather the situation will assume
famine proportions.
There is one thing only that can re-
lieve the milk dealers and farmers OF
their anxiety, and that is a drenching
rain of sufficient length to restore the
streams to their normal running pro-
portions and thus give life to the pas
turage.
Asked if there was contemplated any
more change in the price of milk, a
prominent wholesaler today assured a
STAR reporter that such was not the
case. outside the f1ve-cent milk which
had been raised to seven cents a quart.
The eight-cent milk will remain the
same with the more responsible deal
ers. None but the INSCRIPTIONS, he
said, would take advantage of the
situation to impose upon the people.
The famine has resulted in the great
est competition among the large COM
panies that has ever been known. The
big firms are sending out agents and
wagons by the wholesale to scour the
country regions throughout the East
in an effort to get a supply.
