Farmers Park Harvest
Is Gathered in a Few Minutes

1t took Brooklyns baby farmers"
two months to raise their first vegeta-
bic crop in their tiny plots at McCar-
ren Park, but it took them just about
two minutes yesterday to strip the gar
den clean Of those vegetables and pack
them into coal scuttles, knitting bags
and baby carriages. For yesterday
was harvest day for the children, an
event long planned and waited for, and
it only took the blowing of whistle to
send them flying to their plots to dig
up the radishes and beets and pluck,
the beans that later were to grace the
dinner tables of five hundred north
side families.
G. A. Colgan, superintendent of
parks, was there to lend dignity to the
OCCASION; but no dignity was needed,
for when five hundred children from
two to sixteen years old congregate to
dig vegetables ceremony is the last
item called for.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, July 11.--Em-
ployes of Smith e. Wesson, small arms
manufacturers here, have voted unani-
mously to go on strike tomorrow
morning unless their demands for i'm
proved working conditions and an
increase IN wages are granted. This ac-
tion follows a long drawnout contro-
versy between the concern and the en-
ployes. 1t was brought to crisis
yesterday when members of the COM

discharged for joining labor organi-
zation without notifying the manage
ment.
of the contract system of employment,
the abolition Of the practice of max
ing employees buy tools and materials
such as oils, cottonwaste and other
things essential to production, and the
adoption of "A standard working week
of forty-eight hours. They also de-
mand overtime payment at the rate of
time and half for all work done after
the regular quitting time and double
time for holiday and Sunday work.
They also seek the right of collective
bargaining and a 25 per cent increase
in wages.
Robert Fechaer, international execu-
tive board member of the Machinists'
Union, will have charge Of the situa-
ton. Notification of the impending
strike was sent to Secretary of Labor

States Must Conduct
Own Elections Abroad
Especial Dispatch to The T,.ibu,

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Rules for
taxing the vote of soldiers with the
American expeditionary forces were an
nounced to-day by the War DEPART
ment.
Few state laws governing soldier vot
ing have been found practicable to meet
the peculiar conditions abroad. 1t is
suggested, therefore, in order that SOL
dlers IN Europe may exercise their vot-
ing privilege that the states coi;nerata
with the military authorities to the ey-
tent that they shall so amend their
present election laws as to validate SOL
der votes that have been cast under
inc LIMITATIONS which the department.
mas found necessary to prescribe.
Inc rules prescribed by the War De-
partment order follow:

responsible for obtaining votes of soldiers
abroad. but will assist wherever it is noss;.

one of them is the wife of a place
holder. Six others or their wives are
alternates.
When the attention of Attorney Gen
eral Lewis was called to the facts
pointed out by his followers, he said
he had no comment to make Answer
ing another question, he said:
mo; there will be no delegates to

Hearst Still Uses
Meaken's Letter
AS Propaganda
New Rochelle Man Flags
Publisher for Sending Out
Preparedness Statement

In spite of S. Stanwood Menken's
public denunciations of William Ran
dolph Hearst's misuse of the "pre-
paredness statement" Hearst agents
apparently are still mailing reprints
of the Menkcn article into communi-
ties which have arisen against Hearst
publications. To Offset the effect of
Hearst's misuse of the statement was
one of the reasons that Mr.. Menken
resigned as president of the National
Security League, yet only last Tues
day L. H. Andrews. of Rochelle
Heights, received a reprint of the
article by mail.

the following letter:
yesterday l received at my resi-
dence in Rochelle Heights, New Ro-
chelle, N. Y, through the mail what
is evidently a one-sheet circular re-
print of your issue of Tuesday, June
the 18th, containing an extract of
letter written by S. Stanwood Menkcn.
"lt is only natural for me to as
sumo that 'The New York American
was responsible for the mailing out
" lhlS Sntet, Wnlcn might properly
be called German propaganda In
fact, there is quite relation between
the two methods, for you do not use
any more sense than the Germans do,
for their propaganda, instead of terri
flying, only increases the intensity of
feeling against them. while your com
munication increases the feeling
against your sheet.
Il am taking the liberty to send a
carbon of this letter to The New York
Tribune. and also inclosing the ma
terial which | received yesterday
"Thc fact that l received this sheet
convinces me that every little helps,
and that you are tremendously afraid
of the feeling that has been created by
articles published. such as The Tribune
publishes from day to day, otherwise
what would be your object in sending
out this sheet?
"While note there is nothing on
the envelope to show that it really
came from you, the fact that YOU
have practically no friends who would
stoop to such actions is quite suffi-
cient, otherwise who else could it be
from ?"

Appellate Division
Clears Lawyers Name

Thomas j. O'Neill, a lawyer, won
long deferred vindication yesterday at
the hands of the Appellate Division,
which dismissed the charges of unpro-
fessional conduct made against him to
the Bar Association.
The dismissal of the charges, which
was made upon the recommendation
of the official referee who heard them,
also was regarded by Mr.. O'Neill as a
New Haven & Hartford Railroad, at
whose instigation, he declared, the
charges had been brought because of
his success in obtaining large verdicts
against the railroad company in acci
dent cases.
Charles j. Fox, a clerk in the law
department Of the railroad company,
confessed that he had been induced to
commit perjury in an effort to obtain
the disbarment of Mr.. O'Neill. Attor-
ncys for the New Haven denied the
statements made by Fox, who declared
that some of the statements he made
against Mr.. O'Neill were his own, while
others he "polished up" and made
stronger at the suggestion of the rail
road lawyers.
Fox was injured while a brakeman
in the employ Of the New Haven, be-
fore he went into the law department.
He retained Mr.. O'Neill to bring suit
for his injuries. and the case was
settled before trial for 800 A dis
pute over the division of the money
arose between attorney and client
Fox testified that Mr.. O'Neill had
induced him to move to Yonkers from
Connecticut, in order that he might
sue the company in estchester
County, and that while he was in
Yonkers O'Neil paid him $40 week
for twenty-seven weeks.
Fox later repudiated als testimony
and stated that he had been urged to
make the statement

English Slackers
In Ireland Called
New Threat of Conscription
Is Made if Recruiting
Drive Fails

DUBLIN, July IA proclamation
has been issued here calling to the
colors, under penalty Of an offence
against the defence of The realm act,
all British subjects liable to military
service who have come t. Ireland to
escape it. These men are known locally
as "f1y boys They are fairly numer-
Gus, and rounding them up will not be
unpopular.
Captain Stephen Gwynn, member of
Parliament for Galway City, addressed
a large meeting in the Chamber of
Commerce to-day. He said America
was wondering why Ireland had gone
out of the war. Ulster had not refused
conscription, but the rest of Ireland,
which had refused it. was all the more
bound to help voluntary recruiting.
How could Ireland, he asked, be neu-
trail to America or be an enemy of
Americas closest ally?
The recruiting council, continued
Cwynn, were anxious 20 get $4,000
men, to avoid conscription, but if they
failed to do this there was the gravest
danger of CONSUMPTION, and in military
judgment the equivalent of $4,000
Irish volunteers would be 100000 con-
scripts.

Since then DOC" has been hidden
as far as the police were concerned
until yesterday.
Then it so happened that. with .

After fourteen years of labor Will
lam 2. Lawlor, blacksmith, of Boston,
decided that his conscience would al
low him to take vacation.
Accordingly, he put out the forge
fire, packed his grip and went ventur-
ing into strange lands, penetrating as
far into uncultured wids as New York
City, which he reached yesterday. He
was stanh ding at Broadway and Gates
Avenue. marvelling at the metropol-
tan aspect of Brooklyn, when he found
himself firmly propelled toward the
Gates Avenue police court.
Fourteen consecutive years of labor
had toughened the muscles of Lawlor,
but he was too dazed to resist, until
he was taken before Magistrate Fol

Whats the charge? ?" his honor
He's loafer," Lawlor's captor re-

For few minutes jeremiah would
have envied the sounds of lamentation
that issued from the courtroom. The

and headed straight for railway sta
ton to return to Boston, where they
still let man take one vacation every
