CHORUS GIRLS STRIKE
LIKELY TO BE CALLED
Aim to Fight Against Increased Rate.
at Hotels.
Special to The Washington Herald.


New York, Sept. R.-There's another
strike brewing. and this time it's the
chorus girls
No: they're not going out on strike for
more money, or for shorter hours, but
are planning to form a union to fight
against increased rates charged by theat-
rical boarding house keepers.
Just think Of It! Last season they
could get accommodations in any number
Of boarding houses at the rate OF S a
week. and now the boarding housekeep-
ers have jumped the rate to eight and a
half and in some cases nine great big
American dollars.
Why, only last week one Of the bur
lesque companies dropped of at Bridge
port, Connecticut, for a three-days' stand,
and going to one OF the hotels they had
used in the past were informed that
the rate had been raised from one TO
one-hfty a day.
Fifteen chorus girls pleaded and plead
ed with the clerk, but without result,
and they all walked out, looking for an
other place to sleep. All the other hotels
and boarding houses had also raised the
tax. so they returned to the first hotel
announcing that, although they were be-
ing robbed, they would take the rooms
TIM sorry. girls" said the clerk, but
while you were gone the rate took an
other jump, and now it's going TO cost
you 500, instead OF one-ffty.'
The fifteen girls turned about and
marched right over to the last place they
had visited and, hired rooms before that
boarding house keeper could learn Of the
latest advance In prices.
That's the reason Edith F1emming. of
the Globe Trotters; Edith Mandivill, of
the Bowery Burlesquers: Fannie Ott
from Watson's Beef Trust; Maude Per-
rin, of the Star and Garter; Edith Mae.
Of Dave Marion's Show, and Florence
Jerome. one of Al Reeves's burlesquers,
decided, together with many OF their sis
ters-you know in burlesque shows. all
chorus girls are "sisters''-to form a
union and fight against increased room
rent.

The following analysis of the New York
market situation was received yesterday
by w. B. Hibbs G. Co. from Logan &
Bryan. their New York correspondents:
Despite a closing level generally higher
than Mondays final, the market did not
meet the expectations of the constructive
element, and while bulllsh enthusiasm
was in evidence in the early trading, 1t
waned and distribution Of stocks aided
by short selling was apparent in the last
hour. The news was in keeping with the
Streets desire, the result In Maine being
construed as evidence OF a probable
change In administration at Washington
is probable in November and legislation
of a sort favorable to corporate values
An improvement in Mexican affairs is
suggested in the near 'uture a result
of the New London conference. No let
up is reported in demand for metals and
railroad net earnings are much above 1915
figures. The inability Of the market to
advance further today in the face Of bull
ish factors leads TO assumption that the
list for the present Is entitled to a reac-
ton as a result of marked expansion in
the long and the contraction in the short
accounts"
