CARRIER TRAPPED
BY WOMAN'S AID
Postal Employe Accused
of Stealing War Relief
Funds from Letters.

Three women. one of them his wife
figured in wrecking the schemes cf
Joseph F. Meschberger, letter car
rier. arrested yesterday on charge OF
stealing mail containing war relief
funds said TO total more than $500
United States Commissioner Houghton
advised Meischberger TO plead guilty
as the latter is alleged TO have ad-
mitted he had been footing letters con
tanning contributions ranging from two
cents to 90 for more than year.
Meischberger, who for thirteen years
has been attached to the branch post
office on West Eighty-third Street, was
arrested by Postoffice Inspectors Fitch
and Martin. The accused. when ar
raigned before Commissioner Hough'
ton, waived examination, and. on the
motion Of E W. Mcdonald, Assistant
Distric. Attorney. was committed TO
the Tombs, in default Of $4,000 bail, to
await the action Of the Federal Grand
Jury.
Although married and the father OF
two children, Meischberger did not
stay at his home, 2s72 Bailey Avenue.
He said he had been living at 9 West
107th Street At the latter address
Inspectors Fitch and Martin recovered
about 1000 opened letters and a col
lection Of mail packages. When taken
into custody about a dozen more let
.ers were found In Meischberger's
pockets. The mail recovered filed two
big sacks.
Heischberger and young woman
who is a clerk IN a Broadway depart
ment store, moved into the apartment
at 8 West 10th Street, according to
the housekeeper. Mrs. Moore, last
August. Meischberger said yesterday
that he had known the woman for
five years. She confirmed this state
nent. and added that she knew moth
ing whatever about "the letters IN the
trunk"
The letters were discovered by Mrs
Moore. She said yesterday that she
had been missing articles from time
to time. and mor.h ago employed 2
loeksmth 20 make key for the trunk
What she saw inside astounded her
she said. and she delayed notIfyin :
the postoffice authorities until Wednes-
day.
Mrs. Meischberger knew nothing OF
her husbands plight when seen at her
home in Kingsbridge. She said his ex-
cuse for not staying at home was that
il took too long 10 get to the postoffice
i'm the morning.
Most of the letters which Meisch-
berger is alleged to have admitted
stealing, according to Mr.. Mcdonald:
were addressed to Mrs. Otto Heine, OF
33s West Eighty-eighth Street. She is
collecting funds for the relief of Ger,
man soldiers in the trenches on all

FROST BLIGHTED
SUFFRAGE TEAS
W. p. u. Rooms Were Cold
Enough for Esquimau Rally,
Say Workers.

Many women prominent in suffrage
work gathered in the Supreme Court
yesterday 10 support Mrs. Harriet
Stanton Blatch in a new cause. As
president OF the Women's Political
Union, Mrs. Blatch has been sued in
dividually for $4,000 rent of quarters
formerly occupied by the organization
at 10 East Forty-sec,nd Street. The
union moved out before the expiration
of the lease, and George F. Parsons
insists that Mrs. Batch as president
should be compelled to pay Tor the un-
expired term Of the lease.
It il conceded by Mrs. Blatch that
Mr. Parsons was not responsible for
the extreme cold of December, 1918, or
of January or February. 1914. 1t is
contended. however. that the landlord
could nave mitigated the effect Of the
cold on the members OF the union and
their friends, by giving them steam
heat in the clubrooms. This. 1t is
alleged, was not done. with the result
that the organization was compelled
to call off the usual Sunday afternoon
teas. unless, as Mrs. Blatch said yes
terday, they felt like serving iced tea.
To the fur covered Esquimau in his
sitting room temperature of de-
grees above zero would be agreeable, If
not a little too warm. But for group
of women used TO the domestic COM
forts of the temperate Zone-B-rrrrrrr.
And Mrs. Blatch says that is just what
the thermometer registered one day
in the suffrage headquarters.
Mrs. Blatch was the first witness at
the trial in the Supreme Court yes.
terday. There were two radiators,
said the suffrage leader.
"And these we're connected 70
boiler in the basement" asked the
urbane lawyer.
"Well | have reason to believe that
they were not connected" replied the
witness with a laugh. When ! COM
planned, Mr.. Parsons sent man with
a screwdriver TO open the valves, but
il didn't do any good. When ] COM
planned again he sent an engineer, who
said there was not sufficient radiation
Before you vacated the premises
many of the members complained OF
the cold. did they not?'
ooh. yes; very often We were COM
PEELED to keep on our outer wraps.
Then the lawyer came down TO the
actual temperature in the room. Mrs.
Blatch produced a diary In which were
written the thermometer readings
These showed an average temperature
of "a degrees. :.
James II. Scarr, the man who dis
penses weather for New York, testi-
fed that for the three days preceding
the day on which the union moved the
highest temperature was 20 above and
the lowest 8 degrees below zero.

URGES FIRETRAP
SHOPS BECL0S
Industrial Commissioners
Accept Recommends
tiOnS of Council.

Spurred by the disclosures Of the in
quest into the death Of twelve persons
in the recent Williamsburg factory
fire, the Industrial Council, made up
of representatives Of employers and
employees, yesterday adopted recon-
mendations for further safeguards.
Their findings were adopted immediate
" afterward by the State Industrial
commissioners. That buildings of FIVE
stories and less be classed with six
story buildings, thus settling the ques-
ton raised in the Diamond fire, and
that factories be closed when the own
er fails promptly to meet the Indus
trial Commissions requirements were
the principal recommendations. Henry
d. Sayer, secretary Of the commission,
said that the State Industrial Council
considered a proposed amendment to
the Industrial Code, submitted by the
Industrial Commission TO cure the de-
feet in the law SO as to make il cover
five story buildings, as we'll as build
ings less than Ave stories throughout
the State of New York. The council
advised the immediate enactment o.
such a rule.
Irving T. Bush, Of New York City.
member of the council, proposed that
the council advocate an amendment TO
the law which would give the Indus
trial Commission power to close any
factory building which failed prompt
ly TO comply with an order of the de
partment relative 10 safeguarding
stairways and exits, continued Mr..
Sayer. This power the commission did
not possess now.
Miss Melinda Scott. president OF the
Women's Trade Union, suggested that
the council advocate an amendment re-
quiring posting in factory buildings all
orders issued against such building for
violations of the law Both of these
propositions were unanimously adopt
ed by the council.
Among those present were ex-Sena-
tor ]. Mayhem Wainwright. chairman
Of the council; Edward j. Barcslo, OF
Buffalo; John c. Clark, vice-president
