NEW YORK A WAY STATION.

New York has been called 3, lot of hard names, but no one ever had the temerity to speak so slightingly as to say way station.'' That is, no one ever did until yesterday, when the Canopic, of the White Star, line, called here on her way from Boston to the Mediterranean ports, took about 180 passengers aboard and left at 6 o'clock in the evening.
 Just think of that Boston to the Mediterranean via New York .
 Not only did the Canopic pick up passengers booked from New York, but she took on board 80 persons who came from England and arrived yes terday afternoon on board the Gale donia, of the Anchor Hne.s That makes it worse.
 The Canopfc did not even do New York Harbor the honor of making fast alongside a pier. She simply ran up and halted at the head of one of the White Star line piers long enough to take the tourists aboard and then got under way after the manner of any river vessel calling at way station New York Herald.

8-H0UR LAW SOON IN EFFECT
 AT POST OFFICE

Meriden, Nov. 13.-The Reilly post of flee law, calling for an eight-within- ten.hour day for the postal clerks, Postrnaster Dryhurst. said this morn ing, will be put into effect in the local office within a weeks time Although the law does not legally become effec- tive until March, the postmaster has decided to place it on a working basis at once. He has been working on a schedule for the eight t-within-ten-hour day for the local clerks and when it is completed will place the men on that basis.
 The summer vacation schedule is would have been put into effect some time ago, MT. ,Dryhurst states. The new law will not be an innovation at the Meriden office in that of the twen- ty-four clerks now employed, ten have for a long time been working under the eight in ten hours scheme, and the others are close to it. The law as introduced in the House by Congressman T. L. Reilly specifics hours a day these eight hours to be confined within consecutive ten hour limit Whereas the carriers have had the benefits of this law for long time, clerks have had no such specific pro- vision to fall back upon, and could be worked extra time during rush sea- sons, both during the day and in the evening As a general rule, however, compensatory time was given for hours off duty. This will still be done under the new law, but it will be re- quired that the time be given within the six days following the overtime work

ETT0R EXPLAINS FIGHT OF WORKERS
 FOR MORE BREAD

Courthouse, Salem. Nov. 14-An out line of the principles of I. w. W.-ism, Socialism and anarchism. and the ra- dical differences between them. was drawn. yesterday by Joseph Ettor. the I. w. w. organizer, on trial as ac- ceseory before the fact to the murder, last winter, of Annie Lopizzo, the Lawrence girl striker. Arturo Giovan- niti is also held as an accessory nur- derer" and Joseph CaRuso a 'princi- pal. The underlying principle which is on trial. W. W.-isrn-and the fight of the worker for more bread, was brought out by Ettor for the first time.
 He said he never counselled violence or destruction at any time during the strike, that he believed the real power of the worker was not in these meth OdS and that harm could be brought upon the workers by such methods.
 "A program of destruction <, cannot bring results declared Ettor. 'I bar red 1t from my program in the fulfil ment of my Socialistic ideas. am a member of the [. W. w., because of those ideas. I ann Socialist, polit- ically, and an industrial unionist, i'm Anarchy is the philosophy of individ- ua1isnn-I. w.. W.-1sm is the philosophy of co1lectivism."
 Shortly after assuming cross exam ination of Ettor, District Attorney Att will tried to show that E2ttor had ab- so1ute freedom while both. in Lawrence and Salem jails but Ettor denied that he was at liberty to write anything and send it out as he pleased.
 Ettor declared that he coldn't send anything out of the Lawrence jail un- til it was approved by Keeper Brown

NEW YORK GETS
 A WATERSIDE PARK

A supreme court decision busting the supposed owners of a large tract Of filled-in land on the Crravesend bay side of Coney Island and declaring thaE it belongs to the city of New YOr4e shows how questions of title in this country go back to colonial times, and also how states sometimes give away what does not belong to them Early Dutch and English governors deeded these lands to the town of Gravesend. which is now a part of the city, and the state of New York had no right to grant riparian rights to the people whose successors are now ad1udgec squatetrs. The thing of practical 1n- terest to the public about the decision is that it affords the metropolis what it needed very much, a bay front park, where the people can enjoy the cOoilnS breezes and, as the tract includes the large section known as Sea Gate it will be a welcome addition to New Yorlx's breathing spaces for the con gested tenement popufa;t1on--NeYvsl < Star

packing cases and a big French
automobile at the dock when Miss
Janis recently returned from her
summer in Europe despite the cir
cumstance that main tanning a
residence in England she had a

Miss Janis got her pretty gowns
in time to wear at her New York
opening, but Loeb held up the
automobile for a week, and she
spent more than she cared to in

have the automobile and gowns
with her, however, during her
forthcoming engagement at the
