disinfectants. He decided upon this
measure to-day after a tour of the
city with DR.. Ernest b. Lederle. Com
missioner OF Health, who feared that
conditions were such as TO menace
pubic health. DR.. Lederle said he
found conditions on the East S.da
pretty bad"
Rain. which is falling tonight. is
expected to flush much of the refuse
away. but it was apparent to-day that
II was accommodating faster than the
inadequate force of strike breakers
was able to remove it, the weather
lo-uay' moreover, was of a springIile
lniidness. which did nue. toward rem
dering the decaying piles of matter
more menaciHg than ever.
Efforts of the department to remove
the fetuse on the lower East Side to-
DAY were comparatively successful. but
In other parts of the city the work
was hampered by the continuation of
rioting. Although protected by heavy
SQUADS OF police. practically every
cavalcade of garbage wagons that left
the stables was soon surrounded by
mobs. Hoots and jeers were followed
by showers of stones. bottles and
other missiles and then by charges
upon the police in efforts to drag the
sFike-oreakers frog their wagons.
Gangs Join Rioters.
Gangs of East Side .guerIllas"
joined with the rioters for no other
reason, apparently. than TO wreak
their vengeance on the officers of the
law BY vigorous use of their clubs
the police always kept the upper hand.
but this did not prevent many Of the,
strihe<bseakers from deserving ri1eif
wagons On the upper East Side 100
police battled for over an hour with
a mob Of 500 men and boys that at
tackled cavalcade of wagons. The
rioters appeared to have determined
leaders. and made concerted rushes to
reach the ike-breaking drivers.
Time and again the way would be
cleared by the charges of the mounted
men only again 10 je closed up by
the mob. The police finally started the
wagons going. but not before a nine
year-old boy, Isaac Galman, hit by
bottle thrown from the roof, was
taken to hospital with a fractured
skull The child probably will die
About dozen persons, including
two policemen, were taken to hospitals
during the day. Very few arrests,
however. were made. On many streets
detectives were patrollng the roofs to
prevent the throwing of missiles while
the street cleaners were at work.

CROWLEY SWITCHES
And Causes Defeat Of Race Track
Gambling Bill

Denver. April 25.-The second attempt
to pass the race track gambling bill over
the governors veto failed by the same
vote that lost to the friends Of the bill the
first attempt. True to his contract,
Senator Metz moved a reconsideration
and Senator TwininR. who was with the
governor three days ago. changed and
supported Metz. but Senators Crowley
and O'connell voted the other way and
the result was the same.
It was known that Twining and Metz
were going to change in support Of the
bill and It was also known that O'Con-
nell was going to change to the gov
ernor's side. but it was not known that
Crowley was going to change. and when
he voted to sustain the governor II eaus-
cd decided sensation and decided
drop in the eountepances Of those who
thought they had the bill passed. Rumor
has It that Crowley took . long shot and
evened up on the treatment that the
Denver crowd gave his bank guarantee
bill two weeks ago. He decided that in
asmueh as the bill was upon trade and
not on its merits that Re would just get
into the game far enough to even old
scores and to feel better Whenever he
looked at the bank bill that has gone
through carrying his name. He can a,
least feel that there is one bill that didn't
get through that was supported by the

against the people instead Of bank
