YELLOWTAXICAB DRIVER
TRAPPED In TEST CASE
Hired in Street by License Bu-
reau InspectOr-Jail Next
- Time, Says Magistrate.

Magistrate Krotel in the West Side DO
lice court yesterday fined william McGee,
chauffeur for the Yellow Taxicab Com
pany. $50 for operating a public hack
without holding license and $50 for hav-
ing no public hack license for his cab.
The complainant was Inspector Arthur
Reisner of the License Bureau. With ST.
mon Falk, another inspector and two
cab in front OF the Calumet Club, at
Twenty ninth street and Fifth avenue. II
the cab was engaged. MCGEE said 1t was
not. Reisner and his party climbed in
and were driven to the Knickerbocker
Hotel. There the inspector served MCGEE
with a summons.
s. c. Fiero. counsel for the taxicab
company. set up the plea that member
OF the Calumet Club had telephoned to the
garage for taxicab but when MCGEE
arrived the man who had telephoned was
not ready. He contended that since some
one had ordered the cab 1t could be used
by anybody else without violating the
ordinance which requires all vehicles and
drivers doing a public hacking business
to operate under licenses.
THAT contention Is a farce" said Mag
istrate Krotel. 1.-THE pretence OF the
Yellow Taxicab Company that II is a
private livery and not engaged In public
hacking is ridiculous. / ought to send
this chauffeur to jail. but I'll let him on
this time with a fne OF $50 on each OF
the charges. Hereafter any Yellow Taxi
cab chauffeur brought before me charged
with operating a cab without license az
required by law will get jail sentence"

Stenographers Union recommended that
the credential granted to Miss Katherine

speak at all labor meetings be rescinded
because the organization she represents
consistently opposes the employment of a
union Office force" The credential was
Withdrawn and the w. i. U. was 30
notified by the Central Labor Union.
Mr. Boyle made the same statement
at meeting of the Central Federation Of
tinued Mrs. Batch. I'VE should be glad
our first requisite was that they should
be suffragists and l did not feel that we
could turn any one out IL they proved to
be opposed for any reason to Joining the
Stenographers Union. 1 added that 1
should be glad to have an organizer from
the union sent to see them.
"A man and a woman after Interview
ing our office force found that every one
was willing to Join the union. Nothing
more was ever done about sending notices
or taking their names.
''Under the circumstances do not think
We are open to Mr., Boyle's charges. and l

this manner"
