Tug Boatn1en's Strike
Postponed "a Hours;
Smith to Seek Facts

At the request of A. II. Smith, re-
gional director Of railroads, that he
be given an opportunity to investigate
the laying off of union tugboat men
who refused to handle coal boats and
lighters owned by firms and individ-
uals fighting the Marine Workers Af-
hlation, the strike of railroad towboat
men, scheduled for O'clock tonight,
has been postponed twenty four hours.
IN the mean time Mr.. Smith and the
strike leaders will hold another con-
ference, at which the leaders hope the
necessity of strike action viii be
ayoidcd
The truce was granted after the mon
c.nployed on the night boats Of the
railroads had voted authority to their
leaders to call strike. Later the day
men took a similar vote. In both in
stances action was substantially unani-
nous, but seven out of 22l OF the night
men casting secret ballots against "A

The truce was reached after Mr..

Tunnel Linking the Seventh
Avenue Subway 10 Long
Island Begins Operations;
No Formal Ceremonies
Makes Trip Continuous
Times Square Shuttle Ride
and Wall Street Trans
Ger Now Are Eliminated

Atlantic Avenue, Brooklyn. and the
West Side Of Manhattan were put into
direct communication again Mt ii :5S
last night for the first time since the
Lexington Avenue subway was opened.
AT 1l:58 n train bound for the West
Side by way of the new Clark Street
tube under the river LETT Atlantic Ave
nue., the first to take that route with
Scent passengers aboard, although Of
ficals made the initial trip last Fri
day, and since then test trains have
been run,
Only about forty persons were on
hand at that hour to take the train.
Thereafter West Side trains left At
lantic Avenue at tive-minute intervals
until the carly morning schedule went
into effect 1t is only five minutes by
the new route from Clark and Henry
streets, Brooklyn, to Wall Street
Manhattan. The train which left At
lantic Avenue at 11:5S was due at
tecnth Street in eighteen minutes; at
the Pennsylvania Station in twenty
and one-half minutes, and at Times
Square in twenty minutes.
The new Clark Street tunnel, carry
ing the Seventh Avenue subway to
Brook lyn, was officially opened at one
minute after midnight to-day.
At that hour the first train from
the West Side subway left Wall Street
for Brooklyn. simultaneously a train
left Atlantic Avenue for New York.
The first train carried officials of the
Interborough and The Public Service
Commission. No formal exercises,
however, marked the opening Of the
new route. Train operation through
the tunnel will involve several travel
changes. Among .hem will be:
Transfer to the Forty second Street
shuttle-Interborough passengers to
and from Brooklyn will be able to
make their trips on either the West
Side or the East Side lines without US
ing the shuttle.
Overstrect transfer al Wall and Rec
tor Streets-The direct routes will
eliminate this.
Partial elimination OF the Hoyt
Street station in Brooklyn During
the rush hours East Side (Manhattan)
trains will not makcathis stop. Trains
on the West Side route wll make the
stop at all times. During light traf-
tic" hours all trains will make the
stop.
The station at Ncvins Street, Brook
lyn-This will be used as an express
and local station at all times by all
trains.
The most important change occurs
at Atlantic Avenue. Due to the run
ming of two separate routes into the
station, separate platforms will serve
the two routes. The centre platform
will be served by East Side trains and
the outside platforms by the West Side
line.
West Side trains will not run into
thc old Borough Hall station, but intc
a new two-lcvel station in Fulton
Street
BY direction of the Public Service
Commission the lntcrborough is hay
ing printed several thousand circulars
showing the map of the subway lines
and the Brooklyn connections. to-
gether with explanatory texts, which
will be distributed on trains, from,
stations, etc.

investigation of the shooting of two
American citizens by Mexican bandits

bing of a paymaster of the Huasteca

tcndcnt was shot through the neck,

Bureau Admits Inability
10 Enforce Restrictions
Against Liquor Sales
With Present $ y ste M
New Legislation Urged
Statutes Are Searched for
Authority 70 Put War.
Time Bill Into Effect

WASHINGTON, April IA. Legal ad-
cstcd in liquor regulations examined
statutes and executive orders to-day
without finding specific legal authority
by which the Internal Revenue Bureau
might enforce wartime prohibition
after July !.
President Wilson, under the Overman
act giving him power to transfer func-
tiQns from one department to another,
might delegate the authority to the
Revenue Bureau, some lawyers de-
clared. However, TINS still would leave
the bureau without adequate funds to
pay the costs of maintaining a large
Federal police force. unless there is
some legislation at an early special ses-
sion of Congress.
Suggestions received to-day did not
change materially the air of uncer-
tainty over the question of how pro-
hibition is to be enforced after July /,
caused by Internal Revenue Com
missioner Ropers announcement that
his bureau had not the authority nor
the funds to carry out the enforcement
measures properly.
Enforcement Uncertain
Legal advisers Of other agencies to-
day discovered that an executive order
Of the President, date September 9,
1917, issued under authority of the
Overman act, delegated to the revenue
bureau and the customs division the
enforcement of the provision of the
Food Conservation act of August TO-
1917, which prohibited the use of food
materials in production Of whiskey
and paved the way for restriction of
beer brewing.
The amendment to the Agricultural
Appropriation act of November 2l
1918, by which wartime prohibition
effective July 1, was established, did
not become law until long after that
executive order was issued and CON
sequcntly the order would not apply
to the prohibition measure.
The act of November 21, 1918, pro-
vided THAT after June 80, 1919, until
the conclusion of the present war and
thereafter until the termination of
rehabilitation, the date Of which shall
be determined and proclaimed by the
President of the United States.
it shall be unlawful to sell for bever-
age purposes any distilled spirits.
Not Prepared to Act
The act also specified that in this
time mo beer, wine or other intoxi-
eating malt or vinous liquor shall be
sold for beverage purposes except for
exports"
The distinction between this act
and other wartime liquor restrictions,
as pointed out to-day by officials, is
that it relates to the sale Of liquor
whereas, the others related to manu-
facture. Consequently it was explained
that the Revenue Bureau will not have
power to take action against illicit
sale.
