FOUR STRIKERS ARRESTED
Mass. Meeting Will Be Held In City
by Cigarmakers

The arrival in Philadelphia of Will
liam. Young, chief mediator of the Penn =
sylvania Department of Labor and In
dustry, and the arrest of four strike
pickets comprise the latest developments
in the strike of the fifteen hundred
cigarmakers which began Monday.
The strike is progressing in an or
derly manner.
Louis Hernfeld chairman of the
general strike committee, declared yes
terday that so far the strike is successful
and that with the exception of few
small shops the city is tied up com :
pletely so far as cigarmaking is con
cerned.
The strikers claim to have the back
ing Of the American Federation of
Labor. At the last meeting of the fed :
Grafton. the strikers said yesterday. a
resolution was passed to the effect that
if the cigarmakers went on strike they
would be assured of the support of the
federation. The strikers want a 80 per
cent increase in wages, forty four
hour week and the right to organize.
A monster mass meeting Is to be
held tomorrow afternoon at o'clock, II
the Labor Lyceum Hall, Sixth ant
Brown streets. Prominent labor leaders
of New York and Philadelphia will ad
dress the meeting.

come now regularly each day and this
results in general exodus for home
when a heavy downpOur comes along.
At Hog Island alone the schedule has
been set back two weeks, launchings and
deliveries have been held up and the
workers have lost thousands of dollars
in wages. Most Of the men employed
along the shipways are on an hourly or
pipcework basis. This condition OBJ
tains in the other yards. and it is the
first time since the revival of the ship
building industry along the Delaware
river that the production has reached
such a low mark.
The launching of the Tulsa. Hog ISL
and's forty fth vessel. scheduled for
today. has been postponed until Satur-
day. and the scheduled launChings of
several other vessels have been set back
week or ten days on account of the
rain. The Maiden Creek. Lchigh and
Iuxpalilc. three 1928 ton cargo car
rcrs that have successfully passed the
trial tests. are held up on delivery due
to n small amount of exterior painting
that cannot be done till the sun shines
again.
The heavy downrour has done very
little damage to the plant. Several
small washouts have occurred in vari-
ous parts of the island. but the drain
age pumps. working day and night. are
keeping down the amount of water in
the various drainage bitches surround
ing the yard.

the accident victim as that of his
brother Henry.
When IIadduk' s body was found near
the railroad tracks on Sunday his I'm
derwear bore marks which showed he

by the police, apparently, to establish
his identity.

year old Tony Corfu, 316 Canal street

motortruck. The vehicle, belonging tc
the Derbyshire Brothers, came from
Easton to Philadelphia.
The hardships that attended the ad
ventures of those who slowed away or

EVIDENCE IS SOUGHT
TO ARREST BREWERS
Failure to Attack Source of Pro-
hibited Beverage Due to
Lack Of Data
MORE SEIZURES DUE TODAY

Difficulties experienced by agents of
the Department of Justice in securing
evidence against brewers in this dis .
trict who are and have been making
2.75 per cent beer is responsible, It was
declared today for the failure of the
government authorities to attack the
source of the prohibited beverage.
With the operation of the field
force of the United States Internal Rev. q.
cnue Department, nearly 100 men, It
is hoped by United States District At.
torney Kane, that sufficient evidence
will soon be secured to warrant the ar :
rest and prosecution of half n dozen
brewers in Philadelphia and vicinity.
Following the arrest and arraignmcnt
of eleven saloonkeepers and seven bar :
tenders yesterday, the first move in
the government campaign to stop the
sale of beer, other warrants for the
seizure of other law breaking saloon
men are now in the hands of the United
States marshal and agents of the De
partment of Justice for service.
1t is expected that more than n score
of saloon proprietors and their bartender.
will be arrested during the day and ar.
raigned before United States Commits
sioner Horace r. Manley. Members Of
the Philadelphia Retail Liquor Dealers
Association, customarily, under advic,
of counsel, waive hearing and offc,
bail for court. Ordinarily, the beer case,
would come before the United State.
District Court in September, unless, be
cause of their Importance and number
it is elected, with the courts consent
to empanel a special panel of petit juror.
to try some or all of the cases.
With the filing of information against
the saloon men now being arrested there
is simplification of legal procedure, il
being unnecessary to bring each case be
fore a federal grand jury. This viii
result in the saving of much time ant
effort on the part of the government.
legal forces.
Neil Bonner, president of the Phila
delphia Retail Liquor Dealers Associa
tion, at a conference held with United
States District Attorney Kane, is sal,
to have urged upon him the necessity, il
order to clarity the situation regarding
beer selling, of proceeding. against tn
brewers who make and sell the tabooet
beverage to the retailers.
Few saloons in this city that wcr
open before the prosecution of beer sell
ers was started by the Department o
Justice closed yesterday because of tn
action of the federal authorities.

to an assurance in letter from Genera!
Peyton G. March, chief of staff, to
Senator P. G. Knox. The letter reads
as follows:

sonal consideration and am glad tc

that that insignia and designation
should revert to the state of Pennsyl.

GIVES SHORT WEIGHT, FINED
Cheat Arrested and Forced to Make
Up Loss TO Customer

Montgomery Ganser. Norristown. does
not intend to be fooled by merchants
who practice giving short weight.
Mr.. Ganser bought basket of pota :
toes from Isaac Kehan, trading as the
American Fruit Company. under the
impression that the basket contained
thirty pounds. When he got home Mr..
Ganser weighed his purchase. He says
he discovered it was -four pounds shy
Mr.. Ganser then prosecuted the
tradesman. The judge fined the de .
fendant S25 and made him deliver the
missing four pounds of potatoes to Mr.,
Ganser's home, nearly two miles from
the store,
After passing sentence. the judge con
graduated Mr.. Ganser for taking mains
to prosecute. He said that if other ner :
sons similarly imposed upon would take
similar action in such cases the imposi :
ton practiced upon consumers by dis
honest tradesmen giving short weight or
overcharging would soon cease.
