Red Cross Tells
How War Funds
VIII Be Employed
Service to Allied as Well
as u. S. Forces Aim of
Organization

Washington, June IA specific
statement as to the purposes to which
the Sl00,O0O,0OO TO be raised next
week-Red Cross week in the United
States is to be devoted, was made to-
day by Henry P. Dawson. chairman Of
the war council of the Red Cross, as
follows:
"The Red Cross war council has been
asked to name the specific purposes to
which il expects to devote the 100000
900 which it has asked the American
people to contribute between June IS
and 25, the period the President Of the
United States has set apart as Red
Cross week.
"Our first obligation is to render
such service as comes within the prov
ince of the Red Cross to our soldiers
and sailors at home and abroad. Con-
sideratiOn of the vastness Of this un-
dertaking alone, as compared with any
other situation ever known to US, will
impress one with the impossibility of
forming a definite budget or specifying
in particular the amounts of money re-
quired to care for our own countrymen.
after making every provision neces-
sary for this purpose, our endeavor Will
be TO supplement the efforts OF our
Allies in caring for their sick and
wounded
"We shall help provide the bare ne
cessties of life 10 the homeless in de-
vastated France; TO aid them to re-
habilitate themselves and thus strength
en- the man power of the French army.
Eve shall strive TO hearten Russia
by providing additional ambulances and
other relief for the sick and wounded
along the battle front. We shall try 70
succor the homeless and wandering peo-
pies of Poland, Lithuania and Western
Russia.
Eve hope to extend aid to those who
are fighting the battles of liberty in
Rumania, Serbia and Italy-indeed to
relieve human misery everywhere
among our Allies.
1--WE have set 100000 900 as the min
imum of our need. II is evident that
we could use many times that amount.
To administer these funds economically
and efficiently we are developing an or

competent and experienced business
men in the country. They serve with

The riot began when crowd Of 100
pickets attacked strikebreakers and
their guards as they were on their way
TO the handkerchief factory of Herman
Aukum e. Co. The guards fired over
the heads of the mob and the strikers
rushed their opponents under cover OF
a continuous volley OF stones and bot
ties. One of the guards was knocked
down. and the order TO fire low was
given. With two dead the strikers fell
back and the strikebreakers reached
refuge in a brick building. The strik-
ers threatened 10 burn down the build
ing, but the Sheriff and the Home
Guard prevented the accomplishment OF
their purpose.
A strike was declared at the factory
three months ago. The workers are
mostly Russians, while the strikebreak-
ers. brought in from Newark and New
York, are Italians.
Trouble is feared when the two vic
tins of the riot are buried tomorrow.
No parade will be permitted by the
authorities; the strikers say they Will
hold one.
Two of the factory guards, Gordon
Thorn and John Van Allen, were ar
rested late this afternoon by Sheriff
Houghton and will be held for the
grand jury on charges Of manslaughter.
They are alleged TO have fired the shots
which killed the two strikers.

Examination
tBy Telegraph TO Tie Trbunel

Albany, June 11.-Although as fit
body of New York State young men as
ever assembled in the Capitol took the
examination for the newly created state
police this afternoon, only 252 out Of
$50 were able to pass the physical test.
Major George F. Chandler, the superin-
tendent, declared that the physical ex-
animation was even more severe than
that for the United States army.
There had been / 400 candidates, but
this number was reduced to $50 because
of the limitations of weight and age
The age is from twenty-one to forty,
and the weight from 145 to 175 pounds.
The 252 men who passed the physical
examination took mental examination
afterward, the results of which will be
announced within the next two days.
Major Chandler expects that less than
half will pass, and as 232 men are need
ed for the force, another examination
probably will be necessary.
The men who finally pass will be
modified Immediately at the Troop d
farm in Syracuse. The commissioned
officers already have been selected They
are, besides Major Chandler, Captain

ent; Captain Willis Linn and Lieuten-

VIM. S. Bennett Is Sued
For $1,OO6, $50 in Deal
Broker Charges Former Rep
resentative Broke Con-
tract for Ship Sale

William s. Bennett, former Repre-
sentative in Congress from New York,
was made defendant yesterday in suit
for 81 ,OO6 ,62O, fled by George Carrigan,
r. shipping broker Of 90 West Street,
in the Federal District Court. Carrlgan
alleges that Bennett broke contract
with him in connection with the sale
of a group of ocean going steamships.
According TO the complaint, on April
6. the former Representative told the
broker that he had entered into an
agreement for the sale of the steam
ships Nassovia, Armenia, Arcadia, Sax
onia and Savonia. owned by the Atlas
Line Steamship Company.
On the strength of this assertion
Carrigan says that he contracted with
Bennet to obtain purchasers for the
vessels at the agreed price of S2,Si6,-
AIS. A contract was made, the broker
saws. and Bernet told him that as a
former member Of the House Of Repre-
sentatives ne would guarantee a trans
fer of the flag registry of the boats.
The complainant further states that
he obtained a purchaser for the ships
at $3.50 ton. Notwithstanding the
agreement. he asserts, Bennet notified
him three days later, on April 9, that
ne had sold the liners TO other parties:
Because of this alleged breach Of
contract. Carrigan complains, there be-
came due to him commissions on the
sale of the ships totalling sl,25S,275.
OF this amount he says that Bennet
was entitled TO receive one-hfth, or
s25l .655. as his share of the deal.
