AT THE PRINCESS

Claiming Pollock's breezy and
exciting play I'm the Bishops
Carriage" is the new offering at
the Princess theater beginning
with the matinee tomorrow after
noon. This announcement should
be especially pleasing to the pat
rons of the Princess who prefer a
good comedy with thrills thrown
in for full measure. I'm The
Bishops Carriage" deals with a
crook, but an unusual one-n
girl who steals, not through
choice or inclination, but through
force of circumstances.

AUTOMOBILE WHISTLE

James Nuder, of Stockton street,
was thrown from wagon in run
away on Amboy avenue yesterday
afternoon and escaped with Few
cuts and bruises. Nuder was IN
charge of q surrey and a spirited
horse. When in front of st. Mary
cemetery a large machine passed
the wagon sounding its shrill
whistle. Shortly afterward another
auto coming from the opposite d1-
rection ran in back of the wagon
and the sound of the latter S
whistle excited the animal. starting
1t on it's mad dash down the street.
Nuder tugged at the lines but In
vain. When Barclay street was
reached the wagon swerved from
side to side and the driver was
thrown out. Fortunately the boy,

DO NOT FAVOR
FULL TICKET
Third Party In MiddIesex
Likely to Endorse Local
Republican Candidates.
WILL TALK IT OVER

1t is now the belief of prominent
workers in the local movement back
ing former President Theodore
Roosevelt IN his fight for progressive
Republican principles, and, incident
ally, to acquire the nomination of
the third party at the national con-
vention in Chicago August 8, that
no attempt will be made in the city
or county this year to oppose the
election of the regular Republican
candidates. Instead, in all probable
ity, the third party will endorse the
nominees of the Republican ticket
and work hand in hand with the
regulars" for the election of such
candidates over their Democratic
foes.
If this method Is employed, 1t will
be with the belief that the returns
will show the relative Taft and
Roosevelt strength in every district.
1t Is the free prediction of the
Roosevelt men that such course, If
employed In every county in the
state, would result in an overwhelm-
ing majority for the Bull Moose"
forces In November. This claim is
not only disputed by the Taftites,
but by the Wilson men, as we'll
Nevertheless, the Roosevelt leaders
believe that such a course would
mean the success Of the third ticket
in New Jersey. Many Roosevelt
men believe that the famous colonel
will carry Perth Amboy over Will
son, If such a course is pursued.
In exchange for their willingness
to back the regular nominees, the
Roosevelt men In Perth Amboy and
Middlesex county will probably ask
for vote for the head of the tick
et The city and county candidates
will be the same on both ballots, ac-
cording to the plan, therefore the
staunch Republican, who declines to
Jump" his party, will find the third
party ticket similar, in every par
ticular, with the regular Republican
ballot, save for the name of the
ticket and the candidates for. presi-
welt men assert that there are
scores of men right in Perth Amboy
who desire to vote for Johnny"

lamented the probable fact that the
two candidates will be running on
separate tickets. Under the propos-
ed plan, the VOler WOulu De III d po-
sition to favor both men.
The "Bull Moose" delegation
which left here today for Asbury
Park, on the special train, will talk
over the advisability OF holding a
meeting of the local Roosevelt Re-
publican Club the latter part of this
week. The Roosevelt leaders say
that the next meeting of the organi-
cation will be featured by large at

LABOR LEADER ARRESTED
AT THE CIGAR FACTORY
Charged With Inciting Riot
This Morning--jaiI Sentence
Hangs Over Him.
300 GIRLS RETURN
Authorities Believe the Strike
is Now Practically Broken
--WiII be Protected.

Activity of Joseph Tylkoff, a gen.
eral organizer of The American Fed
Grafton of Labor, when it became
evident to the cigar works officials
and the police that the backbone of
the cigarmakers' strike had been
broken, brought him Into the tolls
of the police and he narrowly es-
capped going to jail for thirty days
this morning. The man was accused
by Chief of Police Burke or melting
to riot and a thirty-days' sentence
hangs suspended over his head. He
was warned several times by the
court and police officials that his
next appearance in or about the
Perth Amboy works at Johnstone
and Neville streets would mean his
committance to the county Jail with
out further hearing.
Woman Also Arrested.
Shortly before his arrest early
this morning Mary Chesnar, Pol
ish woman, thirty-three years old,
of the Rosett tenement in William
street, was arrested for rioting. She
was seen throwing stones yesterday
and was watched by the police. This
morning she resumed stone-throW-
ing, the police declare, and her ar
rest followed at the hands of Pa
trolman Tonnesen by orders of
Chief Burke, the complainant. She
Is confined in cell and will prob
ably be tried tomorrow morning.
The police are weaving net of evil
dence about her.
800 Girls Return.
Despite the denial of labor or
ganizers, 1t is the opinion of officials
of the cigar works and the police
that the strike was practically brok-
en- when about 800 girls returned to
work at the old wage scale. Accord
ing to the police, this seems to have
been the cause for the over-activity
of Tylkoff. Chief Burke testified
that he was about twenty feet away
from Tylkoff shortly before 7
o'clock this morning when he broke
the peace. The chiefs story is that
General Manager Lester Hofheimer,
of the cigar works, was talking to a
striking girl. He had his hand on
her shoulder. She did not seem to
object, but smiled as the official was
talking to her. AS soon as Tylkoff
discovered this, he ran up and push
ed the girl away from Hofheimer.
With that the latter, tall and bur-
ly man, hit the labor organizer and
knocked linn off his feet. The chief
grabbed Tylkotf and placed him un-

SAFETY GATES
OUT OF ORDER
Great Danger at the Central
Crossing at Smith Street
--Many Risk Lives.
ONLY FLAGMAN ON DUTY

Conditions at the Central railroad
crossing in Smith street are peril

killed or will meet with serious in
jury If improvements are not made
Immediately, was admitted by the
watchman employed at the crossing
this morning to a NEWS reporter.
The gates which were the means Of
safeguarding the pedestrians and
others engaged in traffic have been
out Of working order nearly three
weeks and despite the fact that one
person has already been killed,
there seems to be no apparent hust-
ling towards lettering conditions.
Everyone seems to realize the dam
ger to the public, but still no move
is made b. the railroad authorities
who have been warned of the condi-
tions. The watchman has advised,
in fact, has requested that another
workman be employed to aid him in
lessening the danger, but no heed Is
taken by the officials of the COM
pany.
AS conditions prevail at present,
the lone watchman on duty Is kept
busy continually signaling the many
trains and has not time to warn the
passers-by. Some of the pedestrians
do not know the meaning of the
waving flag and as the gates are
not lowered they proceed to cross.
The danger is greater when two
trains pass In opposite directions as
they frequently do. AS soon as one
train goes by the people rush across
the tracks falling to heed the fact
that another train is approaching on
the other track.
Almost everyone in this city who
is engaged in traffic is having a

road crossing. The trains are run
ming fast and frequently at this time
of year and the main crossing in this
city is protected only by a lone flag

WHITMAN PUTS
IT DIRECT UP
TO THE POLICE
Remarkable Interview by
HeW York District Attorney
on R0senthaI Murder.
special by United Press Wirs.

New York. July 23:-In re-
markable interview today District
Attorney Whitman said he was not
satisfied with the offer Of the police
authorities to cooperate with him
in the Rosenthal case. He said:
"I will protect, as far as my pow
er goes, every man in this case, If
can get the evidence l want against
the policemen, evidence which l
know exists. l will let Shapiro and
Libby, Sam Paul, Jack Rose him
self, turn states witnesses if / can
get the police conspirators. There
are bigger men in this case than
Becker, and I want them"
"What has the police department,
except Dougherty, done? Nothing.
They aren't doing anything now.
Dougherty is honest and on the
level, but can he swing this thing
alone? The murder smells of po-
lice connivance. For an hour be-
fore Rosenthal was shot prepara-
tions were being made in Forty
third street for the murder. There
were fifteen or sixteen men, at
least, in the crime. The streets were
kept clear of taxicabs. Rosenthal
was watched. The details were
worked out in plain sight, but the
police were blind. After the killing
there was plenty of time to get the
murderers. 1t was q leisurely Job,
but the police didn't hurry any.
What did they do about getting
evidence then? The only man they
held was young Gallagher, who gave
the correct automobile number af-
ter half q dozen policemen had re-
ported incorrect numbers, and they
locked Gallagher up. In another
murder they would have hurried
around and arrested everybody in
sight.
"Dougherty knows the police are
back of this and that it was to the
advantage of several policemen that
Rosenthal be murdered"

WORK
ABOUT STREETS

Street and other improvements
underway for the city were found to
be progressing satisfactorily and
places where other Improvements
seemed to be needed 9 were looked
over by Acting Mayor Garretson
and Chairman Seaman of the streets
and sewers committee of the Board
of Aldermen today. The officials
made tour of inspection and did
not find complaint to make on any
of the work.
Alderman Seaman inspected
rough section of the pavement on
New Brunswick avenue from State
and Smith streets to New street,
with view of making repairs to
the worst places. He said after
wards, one OF the main obstacles
seemed to be the inability to secure
suitable brick.
The acting mayor and alderman
inspected a filling of dirt at the
southerly end Of High street where
the grade has been slightly raised.
They afterwards found sidewalk
construction well under way at
Lewis and Water streets and then

THREW PEPPER
IN THEIR EYES
Mother Was Nursing Her
Baby When a Strange
Woman Attached Her.
CHILD MAY BE BLIND

Mrs. John Posner and baby, nine
months old, are at their home in
Fox Hill Road in a semi-blind condi-
tion as the result of another woman
filling their eyes with red pepper
last night. DR.. M. S. Meinzer, who
is attending the injured ones, says
that the sight of the mother will be
saved, but the baby received more
of the binding substance and it is
very probable that it's sight will be
impaired.
According to the story told to the
doctor, Mrs. Posner was sitting on
her front porch nursing her child
when another woman came from the
street and began asking her ques-
tions. The mother did not pay
much attention to the visitor, but
answered her questions as best she
could.
Suddenly the intruder threw a
bag full of red pepper at the mother
and child. With screams that could
be heard for a block around the
mother attracted the attention Of
neighbors. The child's eyes received
more Of the substance than the
mother did. The woman, 1t Is un-
derstood, made her escape by way
of the back lots. From those whom
the physician questioned the woman
seemed rational and in no way at
tracted suspicion.
DR.. Meinzer was telephoned for
and did all he could to relieve the
sufferings of mother and baby. 1t
is the opinion of the doctor that the
work was one for revenge. AS far
as known the mother did not have
any enemies in the neighborhood.
