mind with so many impressions or
beauty and grandeur and that he was
able to lift his soul above his surround

power. His mothers furious temper
and her cruel mockeries stung him. not
into a reply. but into silent and lonely
brooding on his wrongs.

LONCSHOREkEN READY
TO QUIT IN SYMPATHY
Their Strike Would Cut Off Coal
from Railways.

Although the Tidewater Boatmen's
Union threatened 20 declare a sympa-
thetic strike to aid employees OF the
Interborough and New York Railways
Company. longshoremen along the
waterfront last night we're doubtful if
such strike would be ordered, as it
would have TOO far-reaching effects and
would jeopardize their interests with
ship owners. Shipping men said If the
Boatmens Union did strike il would
practically stop all cars in New York,
Ms nearly all coal used by the railway
power houses arrives by barges and
must be handled by longshoremen, who
are members Of the union
DESPITE some feelings Of doubt as to
the benefits Of such strike, William
B. Fitzgerald, general strike organ
izer. asserted last night he had the
pledged word Of the leaders Of the
Tidewater Boatmen's Union that
strike would be called the moment he
issued the order.

STRIKERS MOB
TWO POLICEMEN
Crowd of 100 Falls Upon
Pair Who Try to Arrest
Men on Train.

The most serious disturbance thus
far in the strike occurred last night
More than a hundred strikers who
poured out of the Lyceum Hall, in East
Eighty-sixth street, tried to mob De-
tective Mcdonald, of the First Branch
Bureau, and Patrolman George Fitz-
gerald after they had arrested two men
for creating a scene on Third Avenue
AZ train at Eighty-ninth Street.
Walking backward and brandshing
his revolver, while Patrolman Fitz-
gerald pushed the prisoners ahead Of
him, Mcdonald kept the crowd back
until he reached the East Eighty eighth
Street police station. where the mob
was routed by reserves.
Mcdonald and Fitzgerald were on the
train when a crowd OF fifteen men
pushed through a car, trying to drag
the conductor from the platform. In
the fight which followed a girl, who
said she was Helen Millington, was
trampled.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1916-09-08
And the crowd laughed!


STEPPED in the words Of William B
Fitzgerald, general strike organizer
with "the most serious strike the Anal
gamated has ever handled; hampered
by the lack of traction facilities in go
ing about their business; worried, per
haps, at the thought Of possible riot
ing, that unique, cosmopolitan entity,
the New York crowd, laughed!
The crowds were not laughing at any
body, or with anybody They were not
amused because the ely-heralded
strike had hindered the movement Of
trains but slightly. Nor did they find
the sight of faithful old men, many OF
whom were allowed on account OF the
emergency to come back into the SER
vice of the Interborough, acting as con-
ductors and guards. source Of amuse-
ment. The spectacle Of trains, manned
by inexperienced strike breakers,
was not mirth-provoking. And yet,
these proverbially goodnaturcd crowds
laughed
Take, for example, an incident re-
lated by a patrolman stationed yester-
DAY on the a." platform at l25th
Street and Eighth Avenue. A bottle
hurtled dangerously near his head and
crashed through a wiadow in a south
bound car The matter was at once re-
ported and futile search for the
"sniper" made.
But in speaking of it. this policeman
said: "When that bottle sailed by my
head, | felt like the negro who was
walking under a building in the course
of construction. A brick dropped on
him. Rubbing his head, the darky
looked up and said;
"'Yo' bettsh look out dab, boy. Yo'
pretty near made me bite nah
tongue
Nor was humor lackino even among
the strikers. At Fifty-ninth street. at
the end of the Sixth Avenue surface
line, stood a group of them. As each
car came up. they yelled, "Why don't
you join the boys" Usually the an
swer was a smile and a shake of the
head.
Once or twice fists were shaken and
ugly remarks made. Yet even these
threats did not seem to be made seri-
ouslv nor taken seriously.
You better join u.s." yelled one col
larless fellow with an excessively red
nose 10 a wizened conductor who had
been in the service sixteen years.
"Ain't you got no spunk?"
The little old conductor merely
smiled. But this seemed to irritate the
owner Of the nose. He sprang upon
the steps of the car.
"You darned little shrimp" he bel
lowed. "You better Join this strike il
you know what's good for you. You
know what you'll get if you don't. You
know what happened last time. You
know" -
