B. r. T. STRIKERS JEER
AT GARRISON'S NAME
Leaders Say Fight Is Won If IL
Goes Oper Week End.

Predictions OF triumph for the B. r. T.
strikers through the Intervention of
Public Service Commissioner Nixon were
made at the last meeting Of their day
at the Williamsburg Labor Lyceum last
night After reporting what had been
done at yesterdays hearing OF the Conn
missioner and telling OF the invitation
for the strikers to appear before the
Commissioner to-day Louis Fridiger,
their attorney. said
II am convinced that there is some
thing doing and that 1t Is something in
your favor. We are going TO this hear
ing, and we are going to show that we
can act decently; that we can be rea-
soned with. We are 5000 loyal Brook
lynites ana we have the interests Of
Brooklyn at heart. The only interest
Garrison has In Brooklyn is his fees
We are going to show that we can COM
promise for the sake Of Brooklyn. We
will show up Garrison. We are willing
to give and take in order to show that
you men and women are fair"
1t was nevertheless asserted that the
same committee would appear before
the Public Service Commissioner repre-
senting the street railway union as the
one which Receiver Garrison has refused
to treat with
Anything but a conciliatory attitude
was expressed in the remarks of p. J.
Shea, the unions organizer, and those
of Edward Smith. chairman Of its execu-
tive committee. Shea said:
Three weeks ago you couldn't get
into Garrison's office and now the Pub
lie Service Commissioner Is inviting you
to meet him"
Smith declared that no settlement
would be made that did not involve
union recognition.
The meeting last night was an Inn
promptu one organized when nearly
5000 strikers gathered at the lyceum
A crowd OF 500 of them raised a cheer
when they marched in bearing a casket
adorned with the motto:
''GARRIsoN-He may know law, he
may know justice. but what does he
know about railways"
II the strikers will hold out over the
end OF the week their fight Is won, Mr..
Shea told 1900 members Of the union,
most OF them guards on elevated lines,
at another meeting.
This is about the biggest tie UP In
the history of street railways" said
Shea. IT want you men to act In an
orderly way. Garrison is arbitrary and
ought to go back to Jersey. Don't lis
ten to efforts to weaken you through at
tempts to placate you. Hold firm.'
The. mention Of Mr.. Garrison's name
called forth 1eers from the strikers.
The Amalgamated a is becoming
stronger In the ranks of the strikers
every hour" said Attorney Fridiger. IT

A glide OF thirty-hve miles with a
dead motor was made last Saturday by
r. c. Marshall, test pilot for the
Thomas-Morse Aircraft Corporation, ac-
cordins to an announcement yesterday
by the company. 1t is said that this

TEX" Marshall. as he is called, flew

like a subway train before starting to
Brooklyn.
Brooklyn subway trains In both East
and West sides were even more crowded
than usual Those who travelled this way
counted on getting jitneys at Borough
Hall or Atlantic avenue. and they were
not disappointed. On the whole the
jitney service in Brooklyn was excellent
and not extortionate in cost.
Only One Cop Injured.
All along the roadway of the various
bridges policemen were on duty at in
tervals, skipping nimbly in and out of
the heavy traffic In a manner born only
OF long practice. Only one met with an
accident during the entire day. Police
man Daniel Scannell OF the bridge pre-
cinct was knocked down at 7 80 o'clock
in the evening while directing traffic on
the Williamsburg Bridge. The truck
which struck him was owned and OPP

street. Brooklyn. DR.. Buckingham OF
Gouverneur Hospital, who examined the
bluecoat found that despite the fact
that the truck had dragged him some

The Williamsburg Bridge traffic was not

Downstairs under the Municipal Build

could have handled more. Apparently
the violence OF the strikers has con-
WINGED the average Brooklyn man and
woman that the b. r. T. conveyances
are no place for those who want peace
and quiet. Trains coming into the sta
ton were empty or carrying but a few
passengers.
Between 4 80 and o'clock last night
fourteen or fifteen thousand people were
carried across the East River on the
Thiyty-ninth street ferry There was
very little confusion despite the crowds.
A temporary ticket booth had been es-
tablished in the team gangway down.
stairs to take care of passengers in the
motor trucks and four men collected
fares here. Upstairs six deck hands were
introduced into the financial end of the
ferry business and proved fair sales

Just to keep everybody moving and
talking smoothly James Mulholland.
foreman OF the municipal ferries, and
Calvin Croker, with
seven policemen, stood about the en-
frances making suggestions about keep
ing In temper and single file. Three boats
instead of the usual two kept the crowd
In motion. each boat taking about 1000
passengers a trip during the create st
rush instead of the usual $50. Crowds
OF workmen from big plants and yards
along the Brooklyn shore patronized the
ferry on the return trip, although usually
these men take the b. r. T. The boats
at this ferry ran all night.

that he believed that the Commissions

and requested that he do 90. Commits
sioner Nixon said that he would be un-
willing to take such an action without
an inquiry into the powers Of the com
mission. He added that he would be
glad to have the strikers present their
side OF tho case at to-morrow's session
which will begin at 10 o'clock.
Later the Commissioner announced
that he had received from Judge Garri-

OVER RIVER TRAFFIC
HAS LITTLE DELAY.
Thousands Jolt Merrily to
Work in Improved Jit-
ney Service.

A big Improvement was shown yester-
day in the handling of the amateur jit-
neys and thousands of other vehicles
River. For the first time there was very
little delay or confusion during the
heavy traffic between 5 and o'clock in
the evening.
Apparently the Brooklynite has ac-
quired the jitney habit, for yesterday
thousands clambered onto big motor
| trucks and clutched a pole or rail with
the same bored air with which they
grabbed a strap in an elevated train a
short week ago The ease with which
the adaptable Brooklynite switched from
train to auto resulted in an absence of
great brushes on those elevated trains
that did finally run into the big shed on
\ this side of the Brooklyn Bridge. Most
of the B. r. T. patrons were staying at
home. were walking. or were Jolting
along the outer roadway in we'll filled
motor buses.
The police had succeeded by evening
in getting into operation a very good
system of traffic regulations which pre-
vented Jams both at approaches to
bridges and on the bridges. although
here and there a motor bus would quit
work with a despairing groan and gum
UP the roadway.
Some SCI" Trains Running.
Upstairs in the big Brooklyn Bridge
elevated station all elevated lines were
officially In operation with the exception
OF the Culver line. The Roadway was
nothing TO be proud of-from thirty to
forty minutes between trains-but this
was adequate to handle all the Brook
lynites who cared TO take a change on
the elevated lines. Only the Lexington
avenue line seemed taxed to the utmost
Police Inspector John O'Brien. in

was that most operators OF the Inn

Delaney Raps Murphy.


Borough Inspector Murphy, In charge
of Brooklyn and Queens. was the next
witness He declared that the police ar
rangements were not deficient and that
he had ample men to handle the situa-
tion. He said that he had 400 men at
various car barns in Brooklyn because
there were not enough crews on hand at
the barns to take cars out. He declared
that he had witnessed no disorder, but
admitted that there had been some in
stances reported. He was unable to
recollect specifically Just what these
episodes were and his vagueness on the
subject finally brought a sharp rebuke
from Transit Commissioner Delaney,
who sat with the Public Service Com
missioner
Inspector Murphy stated that orders
had been given by the Police Commits
sioner to suspend and bring up on
charges any patrolman who failed in his
duty. The inspector denied that this
order was issued by reason of any ten
dency on the part OF the police TO take
the part of the strikers. 1t was the re-
suit Of limitations in the newspapers. he
said.
He pointed TO the successful effort of
the police to prevent the tearing up and
carrying away Of section OF b. r. T.
track yesterday morning as an instance
OF the efficiency Of their work. Thirty
five arrests were made on this occasion,
he said.
William j. Lahey. Second DEPUTY
Commissioner succeeded Inspector Muir
ply on the stand He too declared that
the police arrangements were ample and
that the disorder had been no greater
than was ordinarily the case in a street
railway strike. He had instructed his
men to preserve an attitude of strict
neutrality as to the dispute, he said.
