YONKERS STRIKERS RELENT
VIII Return to Work This Afternoon,
Pending Decision of Case.

Another surprise came in the Yonkers
strike situation yesterday when the pro-
ceedings brought by the city and backed
by the strikers to compel Receiver Suther-
land to operate the cars or forfeit the
franchise came up before Justice Nor
schauser at Poughkeepsie.
Justice Morschauser promptly sent the
application back to Justice keogh. and 1t
is expected that it will be heard this
morning at White Plains. The men have
great confidence in Justice Keogh, and say
they will return to work at 1 o'clock to-
day pending his decision as 70 the justice
of their demand for higher wages.
When the application reached Justice
Keogh on Tuesday he declined to dispose
of the motion on the ground that 1t would
not be courteous to Justice Morschauser,
since Receiver Sutherland on Saturday had
forwarded a report to him asking him to
deal with the strike situation.

BULL. MARKET FOR GRIZZLY
Brown Bears Go Begging, and No De
mand for Red Foxes.

Almost by the same mail the director OF
the Central Park menagerie has been no
tilted by a citizen Of Portland. Me, with
four red foxes, and citizen of Portland,
Ore, with a black bear, that the respec-
tive animals can be bought dirt cheap. y
The Portland Me. citizen says it takes
all his time and money to feed the foxes
and the man in Portland, Ore, says his
bear is an elephant on his hands.
From all indications the four red foxes
and the bear will remain where they are.
for Keeper Bill Snyder voiced the senti-
ment of the menagerie officials when he
said they were no good"-the foxes, be
cause they ate so much, and the black
bear. because the Central Park zoo was
'.long on black bears already
I'VE want a grizzly said Snyder, "for
we've got three black bears now"

"BARRINGER BOYS" IGNORED
Educators Hear Caswell Defend
ed-500,000 on Part Time.

There was not the fight expected in the
Board of Education yesterday over Theo-
dore B. Barringer, principal of Public
School SO, Harlem, who has been trans
| ferred to Public School 80. Brooklyn.
Mr.. Barringer was popular in the Har-
lem school, and his pupils, including an
organization known as "Barringers Boys
had made a spirited protest to the COM
mittee on elementary schools regarding
his transfer
Abraham Stern made a report for the
committee. stating that although 1t had
been published that Professor Barringer
was transferred because of a false report
on a pupils standing, this had nothing TO
do with It. He said the transfer was made
only after complete Investigation of COM
plants as TO the schools condition. The
report Of the committee was adopted.
The committee on special schools recon-
mended that Benjamin Wet be rejected as
of Public School "a.
General G. W. Wingate spoke scathingly
of Mr.. Waters, and so did Abraham Stern
and Frederic Coudert the latter saying:
THE elementary schools committee has
conntved at fraud. I do not see how this
board. having in charge the normal educa-
ton and character of 10000 public school
children. could retain Mr. Waters in the
position"
Horace f. Dresser and Superintendent
Maxwell said that to dismiss Mr.. Waters
from the evening high school would be to
punish him second time. as he had al
ready been fined. The matter was finally
reported back 10 the committee
Arthur S. Somers made elaborate de-
fence OF the memory of Professor Caswell.
Speaking of the Brooklyn teacher whose
name was brought into discussion, Mr.
Somers said
FOR this young woman. who lives, and
must live, give her justice. She has done
no wrong, unless following the example of
her sanity mother in being a help and
power for good be wrong. l have known
their home life / have lived IN that home
life, and as God is my Judge l have never
seen or heard there the slightest sugges-
tion indicating an improper relation. 1t
did not exist Ny faith In this young
woman will never be shaken, though the
world should turn against her.
For the sake OF the truth, and In the
spirit OF fair dealing. I make this state
ment, and as far as Miss Burns is con-
cerned the matter ends The board is JUS
tifed in placing a garland around the mem
CRY of Professor CaswelI. for he was a
good and faithful servant, and deserves
good, not III at your handa.'

Father ManteI illustrates Attack
of Gang on East Side.
BADLY HURT WHEN RESCUED
Reserves Find Patrolman Hold
ing Prisoner, Though Bleeding
from Gashes in Head.

Patrolman John P Murphy. of the East
51st street station. fell into the clutches of
a gang at the corner of 46th street and
Second avenue. last night, and to-day he
will tell his friends he owes his life to
Father Mantel, of st. Boniface's Church.
When the reserves from the East 81 st
street station, in response to the alarm
given by the priest. reached the corner
they found the patrolman lying upon the
pavement, bleeding from two gashes in his
head, but still clinging to the man he
charges with precipitating the fight.
A crowd of ten or twelve roughs con
gregated at 4sth street and Second avenue
soon after dark and were amusing them
selves yelling and insulting passers by. Pa
trolrnan Murphy arrested young man and
had not gone more than half dozen yards
when the prisoner called back to his com
panions.
why don't you help ne?" he shouted to
them
With that there was a rush upon the Of
1cer and he was thrown to the sidewalk
and kicked.
Father Mantel was in the act of leaving
the rectory and ran 10 where the roughs
were pummeling and kicking Murphy and
begged them to desist. He was laughed at
for his pains and, seeing that his interfer-
ence was Of no avail, he ran back to the
rectory and telephoned to the East 51st
| street station that a policeman was being
| beaten within a hundred yards of his
| church
! Lieutenant McEniff sent the reserves on
| the run. but the roughs scattered before
| their arrival. The officers, however, had
| their hands full queting the neighborhood,
for a crowd had gathered when the word
| trat policeman was being beaten was
passed around. The police cleared the
| corner and Patrolman Murphy. still holding
| TO a prisoner, was helped TO the station.
There DR.. Reid of Flower Hospital. was
! summoned. He found that the injured po-
| lceman had received numerous Contusions
| and bruises and he had to take several
stitches in the gashes on Murphy's face
and head.
The prisoner arrested by Patrolman
Murphy said he was Patrick Bergen. twen-
| ty years old. a plumber. of No 500 East
46th street Another prisoner taken by the
reserves said he was Thomas Woodbridge,
| twenty-five years old, Of No. SOL Second
avenue. carpenter.
| Patrolman Murphy was removed to
Flower Hospital for further treatment
Afterward he was taken to his home, No
321 East S5th street.
Thomas Baldwin, Asemblyman in the 18th
District entered the station late in the
night and said he wished TO bail out a
man named Woodbridge. he understood
he was being held only as witness.
Lieutenant Brady informed the Assembly
man that a charge of felonious assault had
been made against Woodbridge, and told
him of the attack upon Patrolman Murphy;
oh, If that's the case, I'm through,
Baldwin said, and left the station.
