NEW LAW PUZZLES
MANY EMPLOYERS
Uncertain as to Effect OF
the Workmen's Com
pensation Act.
INDUSTRIES SPLIT
INTO MANY GROUPS
Manufacturers May Have to In
sure Part, or All, or None
of Their Employees.

While Governor Glynn is being COM
mended In large measure for his work
mems compensation act which passed
the Legislature on Friday, employers here
and I'm other parts Of the state are
anxiously specializing as to some OF its
provisions An authority who is familiar
with the provisions OF the bill pointed
out yesterday some of It's uncertainties.
The law divides the industries OF the
state into two broad classes-hazardous
and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS affects only the
former. which In turn Is split up INTO
forty-two groups. Many employers are
specuIating as to whether they are In
cluded in any one or In several OF such
groups Moreover. they do not know
whether all or simply part OF their
employees will be subjected to the pro-
visions OF the law. 1t is expected there
will be considerable confusion. and prob-
ably litigation. in clearing up these points
Perhaps the heaviest work OF the new
commission which administers the law
will be deciding questions of this kind.
II appears from a reading OF the law.
for instance, that taxicab chauffeurs who
within its provisions, while private
chauffeurs will not. Drivers for public
truckmen, like express companies. are In
cluded, while truck drivers or chauffeurs
for manufacturing corporations are not
During the discussion of the bill I'm the
Assembly Mr.. Phillips declared that more
than 10000 workmen throughout the state
were not affected by the bill He pointed
out that one Of the largest manufacturers
of optical instruments In Rochester would
not come within the law except In so far
as he made Photographic lenses or shut
tiers. his other workmen not being pro-
vided for.
The consequence Of this will be, II Is
asserted that employers Will be FORCED
not merely TO insure against the payment
OF compensation under the law, but also
against liability for negligence suits. In
other words. the Rochester concern men
toned will have to insure against com
pensation" TO their Photographic lens
makers and against negligence liability
for their microscope makers.
Severe penalties are provided Tor fall-
ure TO meet the provisions OF the law.
The employer who does not insure con

To Save Immigrants Money.

The Department of Labor, through Its
Bureau OF Industries and Immigration
made public yesterday the work accom-
plished last year in dealing with the
many foreign colony private banks. by
which ignorant immigrants have been
heeced OF more than 100000 in the last
twelve months. Hundreds Of complaints
were received in 1918, but many were sent
in too late to insure successful action
Almost thousand Inspections OF these
foreign colony private banks were made,
however. for the purpose of enforcing the
licensing law. within the last three years.
4 majority of the victims OF these prl-
vate bankers" are entirely ignorant OF
banking methods and place blind faith IN
the statements of those who seek their
money. The State Department OF LABOR
devotes large part Of its work to stamp
ing out these fraudulent practices.

Paris, Dec. 14.-Detectiye Nicausse has
made an important discovery among the
effects Of Vincenzo Perugia. which seems
TO throw fresh light on his theft Of
Mona Lisa" The discovery tends TO
show that in taking the picture from the
Louvre Perugia was not actuated b.
purely patriotic motives as he pretended
was the case. and that the theft was
long contemplated.
Among mass Of miscellaneous papers
were two notebooks, dated December.
1910, the time when Perugia was en-
ployed by firm OF decorators which was
engaged at the Louvre In placing glasses
on pictures. The writing I'm the note
books, the detective says. is In the hand
Of PerugIa.
The first book contains list Of well
known millionaires. including the late J.
PierDont Morgan. John u. Rockefeller and
Andrew Carnegie The second contains a
list Of art dealers and collectors not only
in the Italian cities OF Rome Florence
and Naples. but In Hamburg. Berlin.
Frankfort and other German cities. In
this list appears the name OF Slgnor Geri,
the antiquary of Florence
The police investigations have revealed
the fact that Perugia was deeply In love
with an exceedingly beautiful girl, the
image Of "Mona Lisa" Ninety-three fer
vent love letters from the girl signed
Mathilde were found In Perugias room.
II appears that some years ago Mathilde
was brought 10 dance hall by another
Italian, who quarrelled with and stabbed
her and then fed. PerugIa witnessed the
attack upon the girl, and, being struck
by ner beauty. lifted her into a cab and
took her to the home OF an old Italian
woman, who nursed her back 20 health.
The acquaintance thus begun developed
into an ardent love affair. The police
hope to obtain from Mathilde Information
concerning Perugia which would clear up
the question as 10 whether he had ac-
completes in the abstraction Of the paint
ing from the Louvre. They have so far,
however, been unable TO find any trace
Of her.

W0MAN'S ACT BAlKS FIRE
Caretaker's Presence of Mind
Checks Dangerous Blaze.

Esther Schultz, caretaker in the Studio
Building. No "a East gath street pre-
vented a fire in that structure yesterday
which probably would have destroyed It.
Miss Schultz smelled smoke while on
the upper floors of the building. She
quickly descended to the basement and
found that a negro porter was trying TO
extnguish a fire which was burning
fiercely in his room. The flames were ex-
tending to the stairway leading to the
upper floor.
The young woman quickly closed the
door at the foot Of the stairway, and also
the one at fits top, shutting off the draft.
In the mean time an alarm had been sent
out. and the blaze eventually was eX-
tinguished by the firemen.

Florence. Dec. 14.-Great crowds
gathered at the Uffizi gallery to-day,
where the Mona Lisa" was exhibited.
Although strong cordons of carabineers
were drawn up around the building
and others guarded the entrance and
halls, the struggles Of the multitude to
get inside resulted in great disorder.
Soldiers were thrust aside or knocked
down, windows were smashed and the

average were admitted every minute.
Deputy Enrico Ferri, a noted crimi-
nologist, said to-day that although
Perugia must be condemned he should
be pardoned.
The chief Of police says Perugia
firmly believes he has rendered ser
vice to Italy. and is under the impress
sion that his imprisonment was neces-
sary to save the face Of the authorities
and that he soon will be released and
rewarded.

STAMPS OF CAR CAUSE STIR.
Empsrors Portrait Deemed Too Sacred
For Rostaae Stiekaea.

Philatelists will be concerned to
learn that the new Russian stamps
benring the likeness Of the car are to
be withdrawn at the close OF the cur
rent year. The reason is that the
stamp bears on it's face rather an efngy
than a proper likeness Of the reigning
sovereign and is considered degrada-
ton OF the august dignity and sanctity
of the reigning monarch and an offense
to the sacred memory Of his illustrious
predecessors.
Twenty archbishops OF the state
church have forwarded a petition to
the holy synod protesting against the
use Of the imperial portraits on these
stamps which are ISSUED in common

versary of the succession OF the Ro-
manor dynasty.
