Misery, in Companies AS

The dregs Of the city were stirred
Yesterday. Up from the slums came
the unkempt wrecks Of humanity--oId
men or crutchcs and women with sickly
babies in shawls- to beg for clothing
from the bundle day committee.
Fifth Avenue had probably never
seen such a sight.
The applicants for the charity OF the
clothing committee were the kind that
seldom hobblc from the poverty
stricken sections where they 1--we, but
i'm these cases. since charity was slow
in coming to them, they came to char
ity. So distressing were some OF the
cases that Mrs. James Speyer. char
man of the committee, organized an
emergency relief department and hued
the sufferers out Immediately with
shoes and wraps.
The greater part of the clothing is
10 be distributed through local relief
stations. Applicants are supposed only
to fill ont their application blanks at
the central headquarters, 30 Fltth
Avenue. and then await postal cards
telling them where to call for their
bundles.
Money Needed First.
Before s O'Clock yesterday morning
there was long line of women waiting
at the Fifth Avenue entrance. Nearest
the door. evidently the first arrival
was bareheadcd woman with baby
folded in the gray shawl which was hef
only wrap. She stood there from
until IL O'Clock, with the heavy baby
in hor arms.
A. - o'clock it occurred to somebody
that there were chairs lnsid" where inc
women with babies there were many
Of them might rest until the comm'-
tee was ready for business. man

workers VINO could speak with ~"
woman. She said she was Mrs. Bessie
HimmelSteiu a Russian immigrant o.
three months residence at 80 Rivlng
ton Street. She had walked all the
way UP TO the headquarters and hSo
had nothing 10 eat all day. Her hus-
band was an invalid. she said, ana the
Hebrew Charity Society had decided TO
send MIN back 10 Russia.
The volunteer interpreter. Alexander
PCtruch, was so moved by her story
and the WEAKNESS n her dull eyes that
he took I'D a collection from the work
ers and sert out for coffee and rolls
for all the women with babies. After
waiting ar hour longer the woman was
sent away with the explanation that
she would get her bundle within a few
days.
