SOME LETTERS TO
CYNTHIA GREY

Dear Miss Grey: While rehdihg
over your columns last evening,
ran into the MIND" Of a business
girl. who signed herself "Baehelor
Girl" II just fairly made my blood
boil. She rang the Spiker-Knowles
case in for an alibl. But her one ana
only thought was. TO run down me

man. or either am / "A working man.
but / have been among business men
and women enough TO know that
real business man or woman has no
time. or even "A desire, 20 let their
mind run TO the opposite sex, at least
to the extent that she did. She
states that she has analysed each
and every one. and. In most cases,
she finds II hardly worth the while.
She says nothing OF the women, tho,
only she tries to make II sound IKE
she has never done anything out or
the way, and that an the rest Of the
women are as good as she is Il say,
where there Is wild men there also is
wild women"
], myself. don't pretend TO be any
thing other than wild" or what she
would call. mot worth while" but
know lots more good man than
do women: the only thing that |
ever pretended 10 be successful in
was TO travel with my lady friends.
(which were many" until / got mar
ried: then / quit until my wife and
dissolved partnership. Now, Miss
| Gray, the bachelor girl is talking
from the business world, where the
true moral OF a person Is In most
cases completely hidden. Where my
life has been among men and women
as they really are. | can safely say
that my knowledge Of the morals
! they possess is far superior of that
possessed by those who have spent
their life in business. Now here
is the only thing that is the matter
with the Bachelor Girl She has
either been turned down cold" by
some nice young man. or she knows
IL Is impossible for her 10 ever be
anything other than a staid bachelor
girl. Naturally she has 1t in for

FIGHT ON EDGE
 OF PIT FULL OF
 MOLTEN METAL
Necessary to Call In Police
 to Separate the Workmen

Involved in an argument as to whd should be first in line, Charles Mon terio, of 54 Lexington avenue, and Joe Condro, of Center street, battled on the edge of a pit of molten metal yes- terday afternoon at the plant of the Bridgeport Ma1eable Iron company Only the timely arrival of the police prevented the serious injury of one or both.
 In the City court one of the iron shop foremen stated that the two men engaged in an argument over their place. in line early yesterday after noon. They were employed in catch ing the hot metal, and carrying it to the forms.
 The foreman separated the fight CTS, but a short time later they met again and came to blows. The fore man declared that Condro attempt ed to push Monterio into the hot met al, but was halted by other workmen. The police were then alled in and both men were placed under arrest Both men told their stories in the the City court this smorning and ad' mitted that they made as high as $1O0
 week at their trade. Judge Fred
 eric A. Bartlett warned them that
 further fighting would land them in
 a. place where they would not earn such good wages. He then fined each
 man $5 and costs for assault and
 breach of the peace.

64 OUTRACES ARE REPORTED
 FROM MEXICO
Railroads Losses 5O,00O- Freight Taken With
 $25O,OOO

Washington, Jan. 30-Sixty-four in stances of attacks, derailments and dynamiting of trains in Mexico dur ing the last year are classified as seri- ous in an official report, a copy of which reached Washington today. The instances reported were chiefly in the the Mexican line, between Mexico City and Vera Cruz, and the isthmus line.
 The report makes a point of the fact that most of these wrecks as a result of rebel activities, occurred during the first half of the year, and officials here regard this as due to tn e refusal of the United States to permit shipments of arms and munitions, in cluding dynamite into Mexico during the second half of the year.
 The decrease in the number of these outrages was credited in the report however, to changes in the personnel of the railroad administration, the appointment of General Manager Fontes to handle the railroads and his activities on inspection trips in various parts of the country. The building of a series of block houses along the Vera. CTuz-Mexico City line occupied by soldiers is given as a req son for the decrease on that line.
 The railroads suffered losses of $50, GOO. eight locomotives and ITO freight and passenger cars as result of the rebel raids, the report said. In addition to this more than $250, 900 worth of freight and baggage was re- ported to have been destroyed or stolen by rebels.

SOKOLOWSkY IS PAROLED IN
 LAWYERS CARE
Was Taken in Raid on Charge of Being
 Communist.

Joseph Sokolowsky of 1 468 Penn broke street, who was arrested by the Department of Justice agents on Jan. 2, when a number of foreign born residents of Bridgeport were taken for connection with the Communist party, has been paroled in the custody of his lawyer, George sFerrio, of the First Bridgeport National Bank build ing.
 This is the first of the men who have been paro1ed. Others have been liberated on bail, but Attorney Ferrio was able to convince Emigration In- spector William Clarke, before whom the hearing was had, that his client was not a member of the Communist party, although his name was in the register Of that organization.
 SokoIowsky who is a well known expressman of the East Side, ad- mitted that he had joined the Russian Workers society some time ago but when he became aware of the ob- jects of the organization he sent in his resignation. When the Workers amalgamated with the Communist party sCme time afterwards his name was given to the officers of the Com munists and was put on the register of the party. Sokolowsky was able to show that he had never attended any of their meetings and did not know that his name was on the register.
 Inspector Clark will hold hearings on the other men next week and At torney F'errio will appear for the men and try to prevent their deportation.
