is causing so many to be fired that
behavior is much better.
On the railroads there exists sys-

fired. 1t is lucrative means of in

This graft among railroad foremen
was exposed in The Day Book last

spots, but those are the spots upon
which the light of Inspector Knights
lantern has not yet turned.

said Knight, were so effective that
the railroads came right around to
the side of the working men. Today
they are aiding in preventing their
exploitation. Today most railroad Of

CLAIM GUARDS
TRIED To GET
STRIKERS DRUNK

Ridiculing the statement given out
by the managers of the Phoenix
Ceramic Works at Metuchen that the
strike at the plant is being carried
on by men who were receiving up to
sixty-five cents an hour, but who
were reduced ten to fifteen per cent
the first of the year, one of the strik-
ers has written letter to the EVEN
ING NEWS setting forth the mem s
side of the controversy. In bringing
the letter to the NEWS office he
said there was no fear of violence at
the ceramic plant for the men did
not believe in such tactics. He said
the concern at first employed several
detectives" to guard the plant and
these detectives" tried to get the
lien drinking so as to stir up some
strife in order that the detectives"
might hold their jobs. The strikers,
however, refused to be Influenced by
the guards and, finding there was no
use for them, after few days, they
we're dismissed.
The letter or the situation is as
follows:

THE GERMAN TOUCH

Poultney Bigelow, in the New York Times
quotes a letter which he has received from
"the man who more than any other, insured
the success of America at the last Olympic
gathering OF athletes in Stockholm. He is uni
versally respected as a captain of industry:
n man of wide travel and sound judgment"
The letter refers to incidents at Stockholm:
Germany was represented by an exceedingly
strong able and very delightful set of men, all
highly educated. All three could speak with
equal nuenCy in the official languages Of the
man, and you would pick out that delegation
prima facie as the one welding the greatest
influence in the convention. Yet. through some
lack of tact or delicacy of touch, they could
do nothing with the convention. When they
presented some amendment to our rules, using
as their sole argument that the Kaiser or
Prince Max wanted it, did not wonder that
II voted down. AS they had on their list
a number of propositions, some of which we
in the United States were in favor of, / sug-
Eested to them that they had great many
things to look out for 1t would perhaps save
time If they would let the United States take
charge of at least part of them. At first the
suggestion received with surprise-almost
insult; but after a little further eNpe-
rience with the temper of the congress they
agreed to turn them over to us, and we had
them rushed through the congress as
recognized and after the congress adjourned
the German delegates gave a dinner In
Acknowledgement of my services.
81 tell YOU all this to make this point: That
with all their ability and many good points,
the German delegates never once sensed the
reason why they themselves could not carry
things through the congress. They antag-
onized people. not knowing that they were an
tagonizing them, precisely they are doing
now in the United States"
