MORE THAN $500 FOR
POOR FROM SUCCESS

almost without parallel with tbs
more than $500 received through the
opening of the ship we will be ablo
to make Christmas merry for hua-
dreds o. poor people In Richmond.
Few persons visited the Success in
the morning hours. Only 500 passed
through the turnstile at the gang
plank between 10 o'clock and
o'clock.
But at 8 O'clock the rush of sight
seers began. Every car coming from
east and west poured out scores of
persons at Eighteenth and Main
streets, while Cary street and Eigh.
teenth street were black with human
forms.
Uniformed police were stationed In
Eighteenth street to control tho
crowds, and form them into waiting
lines. BY 4 o'clock the streets for
an entire block around the city dock
at Eighteenth and Cary streets were
filled with people and others stream
ed In as rapidly as room was made
by those who had boarded the ship.
So many people were turned away
because the ship was unable to accom-
modate them that Captain Smith has
decided to keep his snip open daily
during this week. He will keep tho
Success open TO the public from 10
O'Clock in the morning until 10 o'clock
at night each day Of this week.

number OF visitors on board at a time
and many, tired Of standing in the
waiting line. returned home to revisit
the old vessel later in the week.
Officers of the citys charitable or
CARNATIONS which are planning to fill
the stockings that would otherwise
be empty on Christmas morning, were
delighted with the generosity Of the
owner of the Success. and at the huge
sum of money realized from the bene-
fit opening of the vessel.

ceipts of his ship for the day." said

CABINET MEMBER
ATTACKS TARIFF
Secretary Redfield Says Op.
pressive MonopoIies Are the
Product of High Schedules.

William C. Redfeld. secretary of
commerce., attacked the present pro-
tective tariff in an address gwen last
night in the Unity Church, Mont
clair
lie asserted that the gigantic and
Oppressive inonopolies of today were
the product of the high tariff.
His subject was The Tariff on Its
Human Side. 1t was his first public
speech since he has become one Of
President Wilson's advisers.
The tariffs warmest advocate, !
do not fear to say" said Mr.. Red
field, "believes there are higher prices
here than abroad. and the tariff does
not affect those industries that pro-
vide the greatest employment and
pay the highest wages. The carpen-
ter. the brlcklayer. the steamfitter
and the plumber are not workmen
whose product the tariff guards. yet
there is not a land where such labor
is as highly paid as here. The shoe
industry, with almost the smallest
amount Of protection. pays higher
wages than the worsted industry,
which has many times tho duty.
1.-THE tariff has led to a certain kind
of business paradise; TO a lack of eff
cheney through a weakening of initia-
tive, and. worst of all, through be-
lief that business success is the end
of the law and the high purpose OF
the government. From this has arisen
an industrial aristocracy which has
found its supreme expression in gil
gantic combinations, known to us as
trusts.

the man in the shop is the most
valuable thing in it and that In order
to be most productive. the conditions
that make for his best conservation

JUDGE HAHN HAS DAY
OF STRENUOUS CASES
Questions of Many Varieties
Before Him for Settlement.

Judge Hahn had a rather busy and
exacting day in the Third precinct to-
day. Foolish questions, funny ques-
tons and puzzling questions were
pronounced in many guises to the
court
The Judges troubles started when
a Iaborer stepped up and asked the
court to have a Ferry street shoe
dealer refund his money. He paid $2
for a pair of shoes and then found
they did not have Il union label in
them. The court was powerless in the
matter, he was told.
Next came the crew of a trolley car
complaining of three rowdies. One
called the motorman an Irish harp
and was promptly locked up. Each OF
the defendants was fined $40.
Following the trolley car incident
an Irishman who had resented derog-
atory remarks about. the DAY We
Celebrate" was fined So for abusing
the patrolman who had arrested him.
"Christo Columbus" announced the
clerk Of the court, and to the bar
stepped Columbus. The Italian inter-
prefer took his place beside him to
tell his story. But what's in name?
1t had no effect on the court, FOR a
fine was imposed, and it fooled the
interpreter. for the man was a SlaN.
He was charged with being disorderly.
With a few neighborhood fights, a
couple of saloon brawls and the usual
quota of non-support charges, the
court concluded the strenuous MORN
ing.
