G. Adams sanitarium at POmptOn Lake,
n. j., this afternoon when two women
in an automobile drove by and signaled
to her.
She ran out into the roadway. followed
by her nurse, a Miss Hoagland. Urged
by the strangers, Miss Borden started to
climb into the car. The nurse caught and
held her. The two women then grasped
the girl and lifted her into the tonneau,
dragging Miss Hoagland with her.
I'VE mean no harm to the child" said
one of the women. I'VE simply want to
give the little one a ride
They drove to Newark and stopped at
the Hotel Navarro. The strange women
paid the chauffeur and dismissed the ma
chine. The party then went into the
women's waiting room of the hotel. Miss
Hoagland stepped into an adjoining room
to telephone to the sanitarium regarding
Miss Borden, and when she returned her
charge and the two women had disap-
peared.
The nurse learned from the hotel at

women, had fled south in Broad Street

truth society WILL
ASK AID Of Police
Bare Legs and Knees in Musical
Comedies will Be Objects
of Protest.
HEAD OF COMMITTEE TALKS

Branding as an affront to common de-
cency the fad recently inaugurated by
musical comedy producers of displaying
the bare legs and knees of chorus girls
in stage exhibitions, the public morals
committee of the Washington Truth
Society last night declared its inten-
ton to ask for specific police regula-
tons making such displays on the stage
punishable by law.
The new society dances" which are
shown in many musical comedies were
likewise condemned, and the efforts Of
the Monday Evening Club and similar
organizations to elevate the moral tone
of the Capital were lauded. Francis de
Sales Ryan, chairman of the public
morals committee, said:
'1nasmuch as it seems impossible to
stop the bare-limb vugarity by appeal
ing to the good taste Of managers, the
only recourse left is to have a clause
inserted in the police regula tons speci-
fically forbidding such violations of pub
lie morality. Maj. Sylvester is warmly
in sympathy with such action, and 1
believe there would be little difficulty
in having such clause approved by the
District Commissioners.
Public Taste Varies.
The excuse given by certain producers
that indecent exhibitions are what the
people want is not acceptable. The de-
cent people are not negligible quanti-
ty. and what the people want should
not be gagged by the demands OF the
crowd of debauchees who are constant
ly on the lookout for rsque theatrical
entertainments
I'm regard to the new dances which
are being produced by some of the So

ant and the weak as much from their

long struggle for moral progress, a loss
that is inevitable if such dances as are
now being presented are tolerated
Some OF the names given these dances
have been borrowed, as is well known,
from the beasts Of the field and the birds
of the farmyard, but this practice only
too often wrongs the fowls and beasts"
Rev. Charles J. Mullaly, S. j., presi-
dent of the Truth Society," stated that
the day had passed when a society might
feel its duty fulfilled when a series of
resolutions condemning all evils had been
passed. This is an hour Of action, said
Father Mullaly, and the fact that so
many strong local organizations are TAX
ing up questions dealing with moral bet
terment he declared to be a healthy in
dication.

ARMOR TESTS WITNESSED.
Congressmen and Naval Officers See
Eject of ProjectiIes on Target.

For the purpose of witnessing a series
of ordnance and armor tests, members
of a subcommittee Of the House Com
mittee on Naval Affairs, headed by Rep
resentative Hobson, Admiral Twining,
chief of the Bureau of Ordnance, and
other officers and a number of repre-
sentatives of projectile manufacturers
went down the Potomac River yester-
day on the gunboat Dolphin.
The tests are part of a series ordered
by the House committee to ascertain the
armor penetrative power of naval shells
and projectiles. David Isham, who for
several years has advocated a different
type of explosive than now used in the
navy, also was a member of the party.
1t was said at the Navy Department that
none but standard navy materials would
be used. The target for the tests con-

The New Munsey Trust Company
and That Munsey Building
Some Rather Clarifying Remarks
By MIR. Munsey

THE MUNSEY TRUST COMPANY is receiving
some criticism from certain sources because it is
proposed to buy the Munsey Building and make
it part of the assets of The Munsey Trust Company
The criticism, however, is aimed at this contem-
plated transaction the merits of the but because
of the lack of any other possible chance of attack The
criticism, as a matter of fact is AIMED AT THE
TRUST COMPANY ITSELF, the purpose being to kill
it off before it gets started doing business
Such determination might be helpful to certain inter-
ests, but necessarily helpful to the community
whole,
Let ME say, and say very frankly, IT IS MY PUR-
POSE TO MAKE THE MUNSEY BUILDING THE
HOME OF THE MUNSEY TRUST COMPANY, AND
1T IS LIKEWISE MY PURPOSE TO HAVE THE
MUNSEY TRUST COMPANY OWN IT'S OWN
HOME, AND NOT BE A HOMELESS TRAMP

FIREMEN WIN
wage INCREASE
Arbitration Board Grants 10
to IL Per Cent Advance
In Salaries.
SOME DEMANDS REFUSED
Helper on Heavy Engines Denied, Ex-
cept in Certain Cases-Award
Not Retroactive.

New York, April 23-The locomotive
firemen Of fifty-four Eastern railroads
have won an advance of 10 to u per
cent in wages. or about $3000,000 per an
mum, by the decision of the arbitrators,
published tonight. But their demand for
two firemen on all heavy engines is de-
MED, although provision is made to have
a second fireman put on when necessary.
The arbitration board was selected under
the Erdman act to settle the controversy
between the $4,000 firemen employed by
the roads North of the Potomac and East
Of the Mississippi rivers. The men asked
for an increase of Is per cent. The award
standardizes the roads by basing the pay
of the firemen on the weight Of locomo-
tives on drivers and by specifying ten
hours or less, or one hundred miles or
less shall constitute a days work in all
classes of service. The firemen are re-
lieved Of all cleaning Of engines. The
award was unanimous, the three arbi-
trators-William l.. Chambers, William
w. Atterbury, and Albert Phillips-sign-
ing it without dissent.
Committee to Decide.
When a second fireman is deemed
necessary on any engine. the matter
has to be taken up with the proper
officials by the firemen's committee. If
they cannot agree, an adjustment COM
mission of five persons will take 1t up,
two chosen by the railroad. two by the
committee, and the fifth by the four
selected. If the four men fail to agree
on the fifth, the presiding judge of the
commerce court Is to select him; and
if he cannot name the man. the United
States district judge of the district in
which the controversy arose is to chose
him.
The award stipulates that the earnings
of firemen in any class of service shall
not be diminished by the provision of
the award. The award is made effec-
tive ten days from the day the docu-
ment was filed, as provided by law in
the Erdman act.
