CAR STRIKERS FULL OF HOPE
All Labor Bodies in Brooklyn To
Re Asked for Support.

The trolley car strike leaders in Brooklyn
said last night that more men OF the De-
Kalb avenue line OF the Coney Island g.
Brooklyn Railroad Company had Joined
their ranks. making 40 OF the 260 employees
OF that road who have quit employment
since Sunday. The company still says that
only about thirty OF the DeKalb avenue
men have abandoned their cars
Fifty DeKalb avenue motormen and CON
ductors went on strike to-day. and were
admitted to the strikers union" said a
strike leader last evening. They are join
Ing our ranks as fast as they are ordered
10 run cars 10 Coney Island. It now looks
as II all the men OF that line would de-
sert the company. The company is filing
their places with strike breakers. but the
public is with, us. as the empty cars run
ming all day on the Smith street and the
Franklin avenue lines show. The DeKalb
avenue line also soon will be in that condi-
ton. We have no doubt about our winning
in the end"
Al official OF the company asserted that.
for all practical purposes. the strike was
over; that the company was increasing
every day the number OF cars on the strik-
ing lines, and that there were more than
enough men TO take the places OF all the
strikers.
A committee Of five members from the
Central Labor Union Of Brooklyn had a
talk with Patrick Shea. the strike leader,
and with some Of the leading members OF
the strikers union. at Third avenue and 9th
street last evening. An understanding was
reached by which an effort will be made
70 get all the labor organizations of Brook
lyn to support the strike.

COMMITS SUICIDE AT SEA
Young Man Was Under Guard
hit Got Through Portfolio.

During an attack of mental trouble last
Monday Richard Burke, OF Boston. first
cabin passenger on the italian liner Duca
desli Abruzzi, jumped into the Atlantic and
was drowned.
Mr.. Burke, who had been preparing Tor
the priesthood at the American College In
Rome, boarded the liner at Naples accom-
panied by his brother. Shortly after the
vessel cleared the Italian port Burke acted
strangely, and his brother kept him under
close guard. Fearing that the young man
might do harm TO himself he was locked
in his stateroom. He was quiet under
restraint. and 1t was thought that his
mental condition would change for the
better.
But on Monday. when he had an oppor-
tunity. young Burke worked through one
of the large portfolios and dropped into the
sea. He was seen by several passengers
and an alarm was sent to the bridge. The
liner was stopped within a few ships
length and boat WAS promptly lowered
but the young man could not be found.
The sea was running high al the time and
the men In the lifeboat had a hard search.
The officers looked from the bridge and
directed the movements Of the small boat
but no one was able to see the young man
in the water. After searching for two
hours the lifeboat was called back and the
Abruzzi continued on her course.
Burke was the son OF Michael H. Burke.
of Dorchester, Mass. Before going TO the
American College at Rome he had studied
at GEORGETOWN University.

TWO BATHS A WEEK ENOUGH
Lynn Water Commissioner Mod
ifies Once Week Idea.
fBy Telegraph to The Tribune.

fBy Telegraph 10 The Tribune
Boston. Aug. 14.-There was discussion
in plenty In Lynn to-day over the decla-
ration of Water Commissioner Thomas
Campbell, ID that people ought to for
sake their custom Of daily baths while
Lynn's water supply is low, and content
themselves with one bath a week. which
would prove plenty, he said. Later he
modified his assertion and said that
under the present circumstances two
ought to be enough.
Many city officials approved Of the
suggestion. being willing TO sacrifice
their desires for the good Of the many.
Among the dissenters was Chief
Thomas Harris of the Fire Department.
He said firemen had to battle after every
fire. and ought to be allowed the priv
ilege. As for himself. he said that on
his tours Of the city in his automobile
he became covered with dust every day,
and that a bath had become. not lux
ury, but necessity.
So opinion stands divided, with the
twice a -weekers apparently in the ma
jority.
