TO FIGHT
SAFETY STREET"
Laurel Hill Firms Threat
en- Shutdown, Despite
Girls Deaths.

Solomon Richman, manager of the
National Enameling and Stamping
Company, on Ncwtown Greek at Laurel
Hill, of which two young girl employees
were killed on the tracks Of the Long
Island Railroad Tuesday, made the
statement yesterday that if the resi-
dents and public officials OF Queens
succeed in the campaign to take land
from the company he represents to
create street between the factories
and the railroad for the accommoda-
tion OF the working people the fac
tories will discontinue business there.
He specifically mentioned, in addi-
tion 20 his own factory. that Of the
General Chemical Company and the
Nichols Copper Company. These fac
tories employ more than 5000 men and
women, and their yearly combined out
put is more than $4,000, 900.
Mr.. Richman is also authority for
the statement that these companies
are willing TO cede sufficient land on
the opposite side Of the right Of way
Of the Long Island Railroad for the
street, and the tracks from the fac
tories 70 this street can be crossed,
he says, by bridges that will be per-
fectly safe.
Mr.. Richman's statements created a
sensation in the Long Island City sec
ton. The thousands of employees do
not want 70 see the factories closed
up, neither do the business men and
owners of property that is rented TO
working men. II is possible that Rich
mans statement may result in alter
ing the plans Of some of those who
have been leading the campaign for
the new street They have thus fa-
succeeded in enlisting the support not
only of the borough officials OF Queens,
but also of the city.
A meeting 70 consolidate the agita-
tion for the new street was called for
tomorrow evening, but it is now pos
sible that committees will be appoint
ed 20 consult with the owners of the
factories

50 iusiet,ut that he held all three un-

This is the most daplorable case 1

tel. IT. a dreadful thing that peo-
pie can exist i'm sUcn poverty and not

URGES CHARITY HERE
St. Vincent de Paul Head Pre-
diets Hard Winter for Poor.

Thomas VI. Mulry, president oi the
superior council OF the Society OF 81
Vincent de Paul, has written Mayor
Mitchell the following letter about
charity conditions in this city the COM
ing winter:
~ wes glad 10 see in the newspapers
,bi. rornine YOUR remarks about con
5;,ions which are likely 20 exist for
so7,c time TO come owing 20 the lacH
~ work and the many other serious
matters due TO the war
The coming winter is likely to be
very severe one on the poor ana uh-
or,3loyed And we are all having a
,,,eatsr demand upon us than we nave
Ia in many wears. While, as you say,
10 conditions abroad are most dis
trcssing. due largely 20 the war, the
result Of that war has been 10 maze
co,Jitions here worse than they would
ordinarily have been. L -
"Our society has a larger number OF
moor upon the list OF applicants tnah
we have had in long time, and as we
consider one of the most important
works is 10 preserve the home and Keep
tho family intact as far as possible, we
ore sure OF having a larger demand
Spon us than we can possibly meet.
And ali the charitable organizations
viii have to depend largely upon the
generosity of those in position TO
Give and help to tide over the situation
OF those who will suffer.
81 only trust that the combined ef,
forts of all will solve the problem ana
that New York will hold its usual place
AS a city of people with red blood IN
their veins and who are always TO the
front in every good work.
~ also hope the new employment bu-
reau opened will prove a success as
anything that will help 20 obtain posi-
tions will be a great boon 20 the un-

Has ReserviSt Army Of
10000 TO Shovel 1t
Into Sewers.
SCHEME WILL CUT
COST Is PER CENT
Streets May Now Be Clear -Four
Hours After End of a IA
Hour Storm.

Fighting" snow rather than remov-
ing it is the way Commissioner Feth-
crston Of the Department Of Street
Cleaning expresses the plan he has
FOR the coming winter. The snow will
never have a chance II the scheme he
has worked out is success. Thirty
thousand reservists, who will be "on
call" for the work, will shovel the snow
into the sewers.
"In past years the city depended
upon trucks alone TO haul snow from
streets 70 waterfront dumps" said tho
Commissioner yesterday "the work
starting, as a rule, after the storm was
over and traffic retarded or completely
blocked. No other method was CON
sidcred available, and the speed Of
clearing snow from streets thus de
pended upon the supply of trucks for
snow work
"Thc maximum number of vehicles
which could be procured last winter
was 1900, and each truck averaged
tfty cubic yards day. Under these
conditions $50 900 cubic yards of snow
was the maximum amount per day
that could be removed from roadways.
With the 3S-inch snowfall in Febru-
airy and March of this year it required
more .han forty days to clear snow
from the 1911 scheduled area of 20-
600. 900 square yards.
"The only additional method OF ac-
celebrating the removal OF snow up 20
last winter was by decreasing the
length of haul for trucks through the
use Of main trunk sewers for snow dis
posal, and only a limited number of
such sewers were available i'm Man
haitian.
"As a result of last winters expert
ence and tests il appears that the city
has had available for years past a
possible solution of the problem Of
rapid snow removal through the ex-
tensve use Of sewers, not alone after
snowfall but during the progress Of
the storm. A further principle mas
likewise resulted from the experience
of this administration j. G., snow work
should be started with the storm"
H. an estimate given Mayor Mitchell
rs TO the difference in time required
for Kidding the streets Of snow by the
old and new methods the Commis-
/ sioner assumed a storm Of fourteen
aouIs' duration. with the snow falling
~ the rate Of half an inch an hour.
lie estimated that the snow fighting
force would have the streets clear in
four hours after the storm ended. I'm
Ger the old contract method the time
for removing the snow would be iGS
hours. Tre estimated cost per 1000
600 square yard cleared by lighting
would be S5.l6o. By contract work IL
would be S32A3s.
This estimate IS based on the as
sumption that q sufficient force OF
emergency men can be started 20 work
/ within four hours after a storm ar
rives, be it day or night.
Tomorrow the Commissioner will
begin enrolling the "reservists." Po-
licemen arc 70 be used to give the
word 20 these men. City employees will
have the privilege Of enrolling. and
they will receive pay at the rate of
80 per cent increase over their regular
wages. Other men will receive SO
cents en- hour
