 Fails.
 Three strikers of the rabid, danger ous type felt the iron hand of the law descend upon them in police court this morning when Judge James T. Meskill, determined to put an abrupt stop to all forms of vandalism and lawlessness sent Joseph Geoski to Jail for two months for throwing a stone through the window of the Cor bin Screw corporation factory and inn posed an additional fine of $10 and costs for drunkenness. Frank Andre .,zek and Tofial Parulski, Union Works strikers were each fined $25 and costs for threatening the life of Charles Ea1kus, a strike breaker
 ss9s 1t is the intention of the police de- pertinent and the prosecuting authori- ties to treat the strikers as other citi- zens just so long as they remain peac- able; but the moment any trouble is started the guilty ones will be ap- prehended ai1d prosecuted to the full lest extent of the law. The determina- tion of the authorities to put an in- stant stop to all misdeeds which savor rof mob violance is shown by the sum- mary punishment meted out to those who have let their enthusiasm run away with their better judgment during the past few days and have been brought into court
 s Strike Breaker Threatened.
 At -eaofaci yesterday afternoon Officer Fred Wagner was called to the Church street railroad crossing by Charles Kalkus of 574 Arch street. vIo declared that three men had held him up as he came from the Union Works and threatened to kill him if Z he returned to work today. He took ' the policeman to the depot where he 2 rickeo Frank Andrezek, Stanley poloski and Tofial Parulski out of -~the crowd as the men who had threa- tened him. Tn court this morning srEalkus testified that the trio stop ped him as he was coming from work and that Andrezek said "If you don't stop work we will kill you" Andre zek is on a strike from the Union works as are both Po1oski and Parul- ski John Slaney, who overheard the threat testified that Andrezek had threatened Kalkus' life if he insisted on working.
 Blame KallSus For Strike.
 Poloski denied taking part in the 1. threatening and in this he was cor roborated by the two other prisoners, s both of whom admitted that they were talking to Kalkus but denied tflreatening him. Parulski said that when the strike was called Kalkus went out with the rest but had re- Rcorsidered and returned to work. He did not think this was fair and 1t was simply to tell Kalkus so that he stopped him, he said. rAndrezek told the coort that Kal- lx,1s was one of the strike leaders and it was he who urged and influenced { the other men to leave their work. After persuading them to strike Kal- rkus himself changed his mind and returned to his employment and by so doing is simply taking the bread out of our mouths said the prisoner. He denied threatening Kalkus and said he simply asked him to remain ,away from work until the strike is settled.
 Judge Meskill discharged Poloski but fined both Andrezek and Parul- { ski s25 and costs.
