Pay Rent or Move Out on
Tuesday, Court Tells
lnSurgent Leaders
232 CASES DISPOSED
OF BY FEW WORDS
Landlords Want Agitators
to Go - Brooklyn
ANGELS" Offer

The militant Bronx tenants, on strike
because their landlords demand an in
crease in rent, received their ultimatum
yesterday. And it was not from the
landlords whose ultimatums haven't
counted much in the last week but
from Justice Michael j Seaman, of the
Second Municipal Court, Bronx. He
wasted no words.
EITHER pay your rent or move out
on Tuesday" was the way he put It.
That one sentence disposed of 232
cases. Twenty-six others, whose prin-
cipals are represented by L. A. Malkiel,
counsel, will come up before Justice
Seaman on Monday.
So far as the court was concerned
yesterday, the strike was settled with
out much effort or legal research. But
the decision only partly satisfied the
landlords and didn't even make pre-
tence OF pleasing the tenants.
Want Agitators Out
The landlords, Oh their side, aren't
disposed to house the leaders of the
strike any longer, no matter how much
rent they are willing to pay. Repre-
eentatives of Benjamin VI. Gruensteln
and Joseph l.. b. Mayer, in whose flats,
on Trinity Avenue, most Of the strikers
live. declared yesterday that the own
crs would not accept the rent OF the
strike pilots in, any circumstances
They want the agitators out; they are
anxious that another strike does not
develop next winter when the hot water
pipes refuse to sizzle.
The tenants are even more bellicose.
A few of them weakened after Justice
Seaman had pronounced his decision
and made a mad rush to the renting
office. But the great majority, after
they had held a turbulent indignation
meeting on the sidewalk outside the
courthouse, resolved TO intensity then
fight against the high cost Of breath
ing in The Bronx"
To Decide on Next Move
The next move will be decided upon
LO-nlEuLt MNtn Tue HbiAhtAo h'iN
other mass meeting in Centenary Hall
East l66th Street. Mr.. Malkiel thinks
that they will agree either 70 let their
landlords evict them and then sue for
damages, or to deposit their rents with
some trust company and actually hght
for their right 10 their homes.
"If necessary | will carry this case to
the Supreme Court" Mr.. Malkiel as
serted last night. "If tenant has abb
solutely no rights as opposed to those
of his landlord I want the higher court
TO 20 on record as saying so. If the
tenant does have certain rights-even
though they may be meagre-they
should. be protected against the en-
croachments of avaricious property
owners"
The good angel" Of the strike pre-
scented himself yesterday in the person
of a Brooklyn fiat owner. He invited
all the tenants facing eviction to cross
the East River and take quarters in
his buildings, promising them lower
rents and better living conditions than
they have been receiving in The Bronx.

Cant Find Place
 To Hang Murderer

Spokane, Wash, March 30.-Be- cause there is no place in which to hang him, Edward Bayberry, half breed Indian, probably will escape the death sentence imposed for the murder of Alice Vivian on the Col vile reservation last August.
 President Wilson granted May berry a 30-day respite so his law yers could appeal from the sen tence, on the ground that it could not be legally carried out in the state of Washington, where capi- tai punishment is barred. This res pite will expire week from Sun day.
 The woman killed by Mayberry was alleged to be his wife. He said the shooting was accidental. As it occurred on federal government property, United States Judge Rud- kin went ahead and condemned tO ucdIu, III Spitt Ol Washington's law against execu- tions. The original hanging date was January 19.
 Mayberry obtained a postpone ment until March. Then it was nec- essary to find a place inside the state boundaries and yet not under state jurisdiction where a gallows could be legally erected. The feder- al building was deemed United States territory and plans were made to hang Mayberry on the roof. His lawyers objected and demanded a ruling by the treasury depart ment. Mayberry remained calm and carpenters began measuring off a place to build the scaffold.
 The treasury department ruled that the plan was illegal. President Wilson granted Mayberry a reprieve to April 10, at which time he will be imprisoned for life, likely.

Dardanelle Revival.

The past two weeks have been epoch making weeks./ The special meetings have just closed. The record of the work done, as well as conversions and reclamations, will read well in glory. The current of joy runs deep in all churches in Dardanelle. A spirit of consecra- tion has taken hold of the people and the church will evidence to the world in time to come the cleansing, purifying and sanctifying power of our Christ as has not been done for many years.
 Rev. Jas. F. Jeruigan of Para gould rendered the greatest assist ance it has been my pleasure to enjoy in all my ministry. He has left a mighty impress upon the people, in sermon as well as in song, which will deepen as years pass. I have been associated with ministers for many years, but none have left so sweet an influence among my people as has this ven- erable man of God. He carries his hallelujah on his face, in the pull pit, and on the street. The good people of Dardanelle all fell in love with him-Eli Myers, Pastor Methodist.

HIGHER PRICES
 PAID FOR HOGS

Chicago, March 31.-If hogs con- tinue to advance in price only the wealthy will be able to have the luscious roast pig that Charles Lamb cherished as the best of sN meats.
 Hogs sold on the Chicago market today for $15.55, the highest price ever recorded. Even in the dayA of the Civil war, when the prices on this meat were regarded as pY0- hibitive, prices were lower than at present.
 After the food riots in Nov York, when the boycotts were on certain kinds of meat, there was . period of lowering prices. Every thing went down. But those who have been watching the markets closely say that the prices on po- tatoes, on eggs, on butter and poul- try have advanced steadily in the last week or two. In fact, they have very nearly reached their pre- vious high marks.
