MORE INTEREST
IN FISH BILL

they could. because of their lack of
storage room and shipped them into
the New York market, and then
waited for returns. and this was what
one received. "Your fish was packed
so poorly, the barrels broke, and we
can only give you credit for one
quarter of the amount you shipped"
That was not only financial loss
to the fishermen. but It was a notice
to them that in the future they were
not to ship such large quantities of
food fish into the market and a gen
eral reminder that the best way TO
get rid of the surplus catch was to
let the fish sink to the bottom.
Displease "Cordage Trust"
Another interesting story that came
to light was a case of pound-net
man who did something to incur the
displeasure of the people that are
known along the shore as the
"cordage trust" as they have con-
troll of the manufacture of the pound
nets.
1t appears that this man didn't
like a net that he purchased and a
brother of the man who sold 1t to
him, happening to be n brother of
a man connected with the fish trust
in New York, had the latter tie the
| fsherman's catch up for week. so
that he didn't get penny income.
and this brought the pound-net man
to his senses and he stopped kick
ing, but not before he was also in
| formed that he might lose his net
position through some license trouble.
Ask Flshermens Aid.
These and a few other stories of
Such palihra were told I'm an off hand
manner, and 1t is to correct such
things that the Evening Star asks
| the help of the fishermen themselves
| in order to break the grip of the
fish trust. Between the members of
! the LEGISLATURE and the fishermen,
aided by The Star, the people of New
Jersey look to have the first square
deal in the game of fighting the high
cost of living.

schools, is fitted for the per cent.
of the children who graduate and go
to college and not for the 81 per cent.
who. after graduation, enter shops
and stores to make their livelihood.
The schools, he declared, do not teach
the dignity of manual labor. Some
adjustment of the curriculum is
needed and moro publicity should be
given the work of the schools.
Death Rate Unusually High.
Mr.. Stelzle told of tenements, I'M
sanitary conditions of houses and
back yards particularly in the Ital-
ian district The death rate in Nor
ristown, he asserted, to be 80 per
cent. higher than that of New York
city. He told of the many deaths of
children under five years of diges-
tive troubles and of pneumonia, and
said 'the remedy was one of educa-
ton, and that the foreign-born
mothers must be taught how to care
for their children.
" taking up the police work he
said that last year there was one ar
rest for every sixteen persons. OF
the arrests 16 per cent were of
colored people. For disorderly con-
duct and for drunkenness and dis
order the arrests aggregated 73.1 per
cent, of which 80 per cent. were of
laboring men, while % per cent. of the
arrests of a single week were made
on Saturday night.
He scored the people for self-com-
placency and said that conditions
cannot be remedied by outside
agencies, but must be taken up by
Morristown people, who must regard
these problems as affecting the entire
community, and not some particular
section of which they are not part.
There was needed the social message
of Jesus Christ carried into the
foreign sections and into the homes
of poverty and distress, and not SO
many ''ice cream socials" and "oyeter
suppers." The church, he declared,
was not an end, but the means to an
end--the people are the end.
Mr.. Stelzle promised to give further
particulars as to the findings of the
survey at dinner to be given in the
Young Mems Christian Association
building tomorrow evening.
The church was crowded at the
mass meeting, all the Protestant
churches of the town dispensing with
their regular services. Frederic r.
Kellogg presided and Rev. Philemon
z. Sturges read the lesson and offered
prayer. Rev. DR.. Ralph B. Urmy
announced the dinner and the OPP
portunity for those who desired to
contribute towards the payment of
the $400 which the survey cost. Rev.
Merle H. Anderson pronounced the
benediction The music was particu-
larly fine, the singing being led by
the vested choir of the church, to-
gether with the girls choir.

TROOPS MOBILIZE
FOR BUTTE WAR
President and Secretary of War
Asked for Regulars in
Miners Struggle.

Butte. Mont, Aug. 31.-News that
state troops are modifying at Helena
for service in Butte became known
generally to-day, and created excite
ment. Many of the miners are armed
and the fear is general that resistance
will be offered to the state troops
when they make their appearance.
The I'd Regiment, 600 strong, will be
modified in Helena tonight. The
troops are equipped for field service:
The request of Governor Stewart, OF
Montana, for federal troops has been
forwarded to Secretary Garrison at
Seabright, n. j., as well as to Presl-
dent Wilson, at Cornish, n. H.
Miners openly threatened tonight to
lay the town in ashes if either state or
federal troops attempted to enter
Butte. They would not fight the SOL
diers, but would take vengeance on
business men for bringing soldiers to
Butte.
1--WE have quantities of dynamite and
OIL" said one leader, "and the troops
will find ashes"
The electric light plant and all the
larger stores are guarded by many
armed men, as are the mines. On the
attic floor of the courthouse are fifty
guards armed with rifles.

LABOR UNION STRS
CONTROLLERS IRE
Challenges Unemployed
to Take Their Complaint
to Governor Glynn.
DENIES HOLD-UP OF
MUNICIPAL WORK
Idle Plan for Parade to City
Hall in Protest Against
Retrenchment.

The subcommittee Of the Central
Federated Union appointed by that
body at Friday nights meeting to ad-
vance the cause Of those unemployed
as a result Of the city's retrenchment
policy gave out a formidable list OF
contracts in Queens yesterday which
it contNlded had been held up, al
though duly let and registered in the
Office of the Controller. The contracts
were for sewer and paving work. Most
Of them were let and registered in July.
When the matter was called to the
attention of Controller Prendergast 1t
drew his fire.
"The responsibly elected officials OF
the city," he said, "are going to dictate
a fiscal policy, and it will not be dc
tated by the Central Federated Union
or any other organization. Most OF
these men who are making irresponsl-
Bile statements about the city contracts
never did a days work in their lives,
but live off the laboring man. They
cannot take their complaints to Gov
ernor Glynn fast enough to suit me-"
The Controller said that he had
looked through the list of contracts
given out by the Central Federated
Union and did not recognize among
them any contracts which were await
inc the action of his Office. While he
could not give his personal attention to
all such contracts, he asserted empnat,
ically that any contracts which had
been registered in the Controllers Of
flee had gone out and been ordered to
work.
The members of the subcommittee,
consisting of Frank X. Sullivan, coun-
sci to the Central Federated Union;
Ernest Bohm, secretary Of that BODY,
and Edward /. Hanna, chairman OF the
committee on the unemployed, gave out
the list of city contracts after long
session of the committee at its mead
quarters, 223 East seth st. They de-
clared they had compiled the list from
the city records. They contendes fur
Their that contracts in Manhattan
amounting to 100000 and sewer work
and street paving in the other bor-
ouZhs amounting to 100000 had been
DELAYED. The contracts in Queens were
comparatively small.
Mr.. Sullivan said that the committee
would probably go to Albany to-mor-
row to see Governor Glynn and lay the
situation before him. They would ask
him, he said, to provide work for as
many men as possible on state con-
tracts.
A letter was sent out by the Hanna
Bohm- sullivan committee yesterday IN
viting delegations from taxpayers or
CARNATIONS, civic bodies, church asso,
Citations and unions, whether affiliated
with the Central Federated Union or
not. to attend a mass meeting to be
held week from to-day at Beethoven
Hall, 210 East 9Th ST., which will be the
first of the big meetings arranged as
protest against the city's retrenchment
policy. The union men assert that 20
600 men are out of employment as
result of this policy. Plans for large
parade of the unemployed to City Hall
following the mass meeting at Beetho-
ven Hall are under way.

HEDGES MEN TO BE SAFE
Prendergast Assures Candi.
date None Will Lose Jobs.

Controller Prendergast wrote to JOB
f. Hedges yesterday 10 assure him that
ne was wrong if he thought support of
the Hedges candidacy by any men in
the Finance Department might lead to
the loss of their positions.
"If there are any men who honestly
entertain this idea" he said, "it only
proves that the standard of public duty
which | have tried to establish in this
department is not understood by its
employees"
The Controller cited the fights for
Roosevelt at the Republican convention
of 1910 and for Roosevelt delegates and
the Progressive party in 1912, in all Of
which he was interested. and pointed
TO the fact that men in the department
who took the opposite sides had not
been affected in their positions.
al hope have said enough" the Con-
troller ended, "to convince any timor-
Gus employees that they are at liberty to
shout for Hedges; and ! trust you will
be able to draw from the results Of the
rimary election something more sub
stantial than three cheers.

PUTS HIGH BEEF
UP TO COMPETITION
Packer Tells of Secrecy
Surrounding Stockyard
Bargaining.
PUBLICITY URGED,
TO SHOW HONESTY
Retail Grocer Suffers from
Police Investigation Ayers
Witness at Inquiry.

Through Theodore L. Price, manager
of the New York Independent Beef
Company, Chief Magistrate McAdoo
and William A. De Ford, Assistant Dis
trict Attorney, made another unsuc-
cessful effort yesterday to ascertain
how the packers determined their
prices, which one of them had said
"you could feel in the air."
"Why is it," asked Magistrate Nc
Adoo, that If the big packers are COM
peting among themselves in both buy
ing and selling, when our local butch
ers try to buy meat here the prices
of the various packers are as similar
as so many ranks of well drilled SOL
ders?"
1.-THE competition is so keen that it
drags them all to about the same
level" said Price. They try TO dis
pose of their meat at the best prices
they can. II they can't get what they
ask they have to come down, for the
meat must be disposed Of before the
end of the week. 1t is only the utillza-
ton of every ounce of every steer that
enables the packers to do business at
all now. II the wasteful methods which
prevailed twenty-five years ago were
still common beef would be rs cents a
pound to-day"
In support of the blend of beef prices
with the atmosphere, which former
witness had described, Mr.. Price de-
scribed the secrecy which surrounded
bargaining in the stockyards. No buyer
was allowed within fifty feet of pen
while another was inside, he said, and
so long as the first buyer was within
fifty feet of the pen his offer was BIND
ing upon the commission. man. only
the books of the commission men and
the packers would show the true prices
paid for cattle, he said, although the
prices in newspapers and the price oil
feed were pretty true indications.
A tendency to higher prices IN sew
eral stores yesterday was taken TO De
reflection Of the confidence gained by
the storekeeper upon reading the opin,,
ion Of the Acting Corporation Counsel
that the individual could not be prose,
cuted for boosting his prices. Special
legislation dealing with that problem
is under consideration.
The Mayors Committee on Food
Supply has resolved to keep ITS plans
to itself until something definite has
been accomplished. The executive COM
mittce met yesterday. II is consider
ing particularly this week TIE prob
lem Of food substitutions. Ten detec-
tives assigned to the committee by
Commissioner Woods will start out
this morning to investigate five hun
bred complaints of overcharges that
have come in.
Edwin T. Atkins, chairman Of the
board of directors of the American
Sugar Refining Company, testified yes
terday in the inquiry conducted by
District Attorney Cropsey Of Kings
before Justice Benedict, that the in
crease in the price of raw sugar justi-
fed his company in asking 81 20
hundredweight for refined sugar. The
company was selling no sugar abroad,
he said, although it could DO so at in
creased prices.
