PASSAIC, April 3.-Twenty girl tex-
beaten by squad of thirty special
deputies in the employ of mill-owners.
The riot took place at the Garfield
mill of the Furstmann-H Huffman Com
pany today while the girls were doing
picket duty.
Among the striking girls who were
dubbed were Lizzie Timochy and Mary
Guerre. They say that they were in
front of the plant asking "scabs" not
to go to work
We used no violence" said Miss
Guerra, Just moral suasion. OF a
sudden the squad of private detectives
fell upon us and beat us brutally We
scattered as soon as we could, to avoid
further trouble, but not before many
of US were badly hurt. The attack by
these men was unwarrtned We had
done nothing to break the peace"
The strikers say the mill-owners are
determined to put them in a bad light
and show the public that they are be-
coming unruly and riotous.
The clubbing today was the first sign
of any deliberate plan at violence.
It is openly stated that, despite Hay
woods visit yesterday afternoon and
his direct action advice, it was not
the strikers forces that began hostih-
ties 1t is believed. however. that II
the special deputies provoke violence
they will be met more than half way
by the strikers.
One of the men strikers was badly
injured about the head, and. after
being arrested, was rushed to the
Hackensack jail
When Patrolman Morris, of the Car
field police, was asked If 1t is usual
to send prisoner to Hackensack. he
said it was not The prisoner is Batiste
Rento, who speaks no English.
The Garfield police are silent about
the occurrence. They say that they
do not know much about the riot"
The fact that they shipped Rento to
Hackensaci makes some people be-
lieve, however, that they know more
than they care to admit
Interference by deputies and private
detectives was first noticed yesterday.
when an attempt was made TO open
the Garfield and Clifton plants. Twice
did these men make an effort to break
up the procession of the strikers. and
once they were prevented from doing
so by the local police.
At one time yesterday, when one
over-zealous deputy rushed for a
strike leader, a riot was averted by
the timely intervention of a uniformed
man.
The Gera mills. according to the
strikers. were not opened today. They
said that the weavers did not return
to work despite the fact that Otto
Bruckner, the superintendent. alleged
that about half of the 800 employed in
the plant were at work this morning.
A crowd of 800 strikers surrounded
the mill today They repeated their
circular procession of yesterday and
sang their campaign songs as they
marched. There was no sign Of vio-
lence.

Board Approves
Action on Dogs

By unanimous vote. the Board of
Health, at its meeting last night, con-
Cured in the contemplated action Of
Health Officer David D. Chandler, who
will forward communication to the
finance committee of the Common
Council tonight in reference to the
failure of the, Humane Society to cope
with the handling Of the dogs at large
in the city. The commissioners have
left the entire question in Mr.. Chand-
ler's care and he will give facts and
figures showing the many dog victims
during the regime of the society.
The reports of The inspectors on the
number of dogs at large they counted
and the records at the City Hospital,
in the opinion of Mr.. Chandler, will be
sufficient proof to show that the HUI
name Society, despite the opinion of
DR.. James c. Corlies, its president, is
not doing sufficient work to warrant
its receiving the annual appropriation
of 800.

ON TRAIL OF
ASSAILANTS
Two Men Who Shot Three
People from Ambush
Sought.
INTENDED VICTIM MAY
DIE FROM TWO WOUNDS
Feud, in Which Woman Is Said
to Figure, Supposed Motive
of Assault.

The police of this city and Passaic
are making every effort TO run down
the man who made a murderous as
sault, in the course Of which he
wounded his intended victim and two
others. Pietro Biacca is the man ae-
cused, and Salvatore Fulfaro, go years
old of "a State street, Passaic, was the
intended victim. Biacco did not sue
ceed in accomplishing the desire, but
he was successful in manning Fulfarc
and injuring William Mazzo, % years
20. years old, all of whom are in the
Passaic General Hospital with bullet
wounds. Fulfaro may die, having re-
ceived a bullet in the abdomen, which
The physicians have as yet been unable
10 locate. Mrs. Fulfaro was i'm fthe
party but was not injured.
With party of friends the Fulfaros
had witnessed a performance of the
Passion Play at a moving picture
house. They were on their way home,
and near the Dundee bridge when fire
was opened on them from behind. Full
faro fell but the shooting continued and
Nazzo and his daughter were hit by
bullets The shrieks of the woman and
child brought many persons to the
scene. Fulfaro received two bullets IN
the abdomen, the girl one in the leg,
and her father one in the right hand.
Two men were seen moving about
behind a pile of rubbish after the
shooting and then boarded a Paterson
car bound for this city. In the excite
ment no one gave chase. Several hours
later Captain Schmidt sent two of his
plainclothesren to follow this clue.
Shooting Outcome of Feud.
The shooting is from all accounts
the outgrowth of an old feud between
Fulfaro and Biacco. Biacco was very
attentive to Mrs. Fu1faro. the police
claim. This led to an estrangement
between the two men last September
Then the two men met on the sire /.
and opened fire. and each received a
slight bullet wound. Since then they
have seen very little of each other,
although it is intimated that Mrs. Full
faro has been the recipient of threat
Aening letters from Biacco.
The police have ascertained, they
say, that Biacco was accompanied by a
friend whom he had enlisted to shoot
down Fulfaro. Investigation by the
police has shown that even before the
shooting affair last September there
was a bad feeling between the two
rnen, during which blows were ex-
changed. 1t is known that the little
girl was not Intentionally injured, but
the work of poor Workmanship.

P. S. HAS NO
WIRE PLANS

No definite stand vas taken by the
Public Service Corporation today con-
corning Commissioner O'Connell's
statement that the overhead trolley
wires would have to be abolished by
the company. 1t was not stated that
the company would or would not COM
ply with the demands made by the
president of the Board of Works. II
was shown however that under the
a commission would have to be selected
to determine whether or not the
scheme was practicable.
The ordinance states that one of the
members of the arbitration commission
is to be selected by the city, one by
the Public Service and the other by
both contending parties
President Thomas n. McCarter today
declared that the matter of removing
the overhead trolley wires had not
been called to his attention either by
the Board of Works or Martin White,
of the Public Service Railway Com
pany's street repairing department.
Mr.. White had attended the Board of
Works meeting in place of Mr.. Nc
Garter, who was in Washington, and
could not accept the boards invita-
ton.
1t was stated, however, by a Public
Service Corporation official that ''it
would be unwise to attempt anything
that would mean the destruction of the
large property represented in overhead
wires unless 1t was definitely settled
that such change would be for the
best Also the great expense in sup
plying the underground construction is
to be considered"

Gone;
Girls Have Dance

NEW YORK, April 3.-After a trip
to Europe under the surveillance of
three chaperons, fifteen girls of the
senior class of Mrs. Jessica Finch's
School for Young Ladies got home to-
day aboard the Holland-American
liner Noordam, from Rotterdam, via
Halifax. where she stopped to land 600
colonists bound for the British north
west.
Thank heavens two of the three re-
lentless chaperons were left on the
other side, and when the girls arrived
today-that is to say when Mrs. Finch
wasn't looking-the first thing they did
was to have a dance on deck to the
music of the special band.
There were no undignified dips, rolls,
glides or trots. 1t was the first dance
they had had in three months. The
trip did not include dancing.
All the girls wore white gloves and
Paris bonnets when they came ashore.
They include Miss Prudence Durand
and Miss Mary Plum. of Newark.

boys took s5.s5 in money from his
pockets. loaded the body on mud
sled and, hauling it home, told their
mother some enemy had killed him.
Both admitted their father had been
kind to them. and that they had no
reason to kill him except that he had
compelled them to go to school, and
"they we're tired of being bossed"

TRAFFIC AGAIN DELAYED
ON TORN-UP MARKET ST.

The repaving of Market street with
bitulithic today again interrupted traf-
fic on that street. Because of the torn
street the drivers of wagons were COM
PEELED to take to the tracks, and this
upset the Public Service railway
schedule considerably. A heavy truck,
laden with stones, broke down at
Springfield avenue and Bergen street
today and held up traffic on that line
for twenty minutes
Another heavily-laden truck, driven
by six horses, broke down in Market
street, east Of Ferry street, and held
up traffic for half an hour.
