Ills man who discovered the alleged
Irregularities in the bill of the Almirall
Grand Jury. whose members recently
were excused from Grand Jury service
for three years, was City Chamberlain
Philip Berolzheimer. Mr.. Berolzheimer
himself made the disclosure yesterday in
the following statement received in New
York from him at his winter place in
Little st. Simon's Island, Ga:

made an inquiry concerning their SER
vices. The clerk OF the court reported
that he had no current record OF their
work The bill was made up from pencil
memoranda made by the secretary Of
the Grand Jury, scattering and frag-
nientary notes concerning all that time
spent in pursuit of the 'overshadowing
crime and other bugaboos and In pur-
suance of a palpably partisan purpose.
Some sessions were reported beyond
those covered by the pencil notes. They
were held in Foreman Almirall's office
uptown. They could not have been held
in compliance with the law covering
Grand Jury meetings. IL they met at all.

I was convinced that the bill for jury
fees could not properly be paid by me,

ton whether everything done by this
Grand Jury was not likely to be de-
clared Illegal, null and void referred
the bill for jury services to Commits

disclosures made by my examination.

gested that suit upon the alleged claim
would be a good way TO get all the
questions involved before proper tri-

At Final Meeting of Term
Members Think Best to Obey

CITY COUNSEL REBUKED
Long Island Railroad Cannot
Have Streets Closed for
Brooklyn Yard.

The present Board OF Estimate neld
its last meeting yesterday. Its last act
was to escape the possibility OF 3ail by
the skin OF its teeth.
AS a part of Mayor Hylan's Gght
against mandatory legislation tho board
had sust finished voting to refuse an
appropriation of $ss.264 for increasing
salaries OF the teachers of the College
OF the City Of New York, despite a writ
OF mandamus and an opinion OF the
Corporation Counsel that the appropria-
tion must be made.
Adjournment sine die was I'm order
when Maurice r. Connolly, President OF
Queens. had a startling thought which
he communicated TO Edward Reigei-
mann. President of Brooklyn, as follows
Look here, aren't we liable to get in
the jug for this businessT'
The President Of Brooklyn looked
thoughtful and asked the Mayor. The
Mayor looked thoughtful and sent for
the Corporation Counsel, John p
O'Brien. The Corporation Counsel said
Yes and on second vote the board
looked sour and passed the appropria-
ton.
On the whole IL was a rough day for
the Corporation Counsel.
Concerning the contract presented for
the closing Of Stewart and Gardner
avenues from Randolph street to Mont
rose avenue. Brooklyn, to protect a Long
Island Railroad freight yard, the Mayor
said: 1T looks as If the Corporation
Counsel's office is not protecting the
city's interests properly" and the board
refused to act.

Counsel blocked the payment OF a death
benefit to the widow of city employee,
and Mr.. Reigelmann accused the Cor
poration Counsel's office of deliberately
trying to prevent the payment

FACTORY WORK
IN The HOME
Un-American Conditions Found
TO Exist in Three Rhode
Island Cities.
CHILDREN At HARD LABOR
Employment After School Hours, and
Frequently After Work in Factories
and Stores, Has Had Bad Effect, 40
cordlna to School Teachers.

In an investigation OF children en-
gagged In industrial home work in three
Rhode Island cities made by the chill
drens bureau Of the United States De
partment of Labor, II was found that
s per cent of all the children between
five and fifteen years of age had at
some time during the year done fac
tory work I'm their homes, either by
hand or machine. They assembled
jewelry, strung beads, finished lace and
underwear, carded snaps and shoe but
tons and performed many other simple
operations incidental to manufacture.
In the majority of cases the fact
that the family was in need was given
as the reason for home work. This
work, however, added but little to the
family income, since the average earn
ings for each family during the year
from this source were only $4S. over
half the children could not earn as
much as cents an hour.
Many of the children worked not
only after school, but also in the eve
nings; some worked exclusively at
night. A few of the children who
worked all day In factories or stores
also worked at home every night. and
eyestrain was commonly reported.
Teachers and school officials stated
that home work interfered with school
attendance and the quality of school
work.
The homework system makes fac
tory out of the home, and the workers
are subject to hazards from which they
are not safeguarded by law. The
health of the community is endangered
by the use of clothing and other ar
ticles made in homes in which infec-
tlous diseases are present. More than
half the employers interviewed stated
that it would be possible to make re-
adjustments In their factories If the
system of home work were abolished.

ANNOUNCE BONUS SYSTEM
United States Steel Cooperation Plants
Revise Profit Sharing Plan Opera
tive Since 1908.

Announcement Of profit-sharing
plan for employees Of United States
Steel corporation plants at Sharon
Pa, has been made. The basis of the
bonus system Is as follows: On profits
from S1DO.DO0.0O0 10 Si50,0O000.- a
bonus OF per cent. to S200eo.00O,
PA per cent, and IN excess of TINS
amount pa per cent will be dis
tributed.
The profit-sharing plan Is revision
OF a plan which has been operative
since 1903. The revised plan. however,
contains many changes. Instead OF
limiting the distribution Of a percent
age of earnings over a certain sum 10
men who occupy official and senior
fetal positions and who are engaged In
directing and managing the affairs or
the corporation and Its several sub
sidiary companies" as formerly, the
new plan provides that employees who
have been with the corporation or It's
subsidiaries for one year or more and
who. by their ability, industry and 10y
atty. have, in the judgment Of the com
mittee appointed. rendered services
which have contributed In an unusual
degree TO the success of the corpora
ton, shall be entitled to share in the
distribution of the fund.
The election of a committee OF three
stockholders at the annual meeting OF
the corporation is provided for and this
committee. aside from being charged
with determining the distribution OF
the fund is also empowered to dis
tribute il wholly in cash or partly in
United States Steel stock.

Farm labor Is relatively plentiful
this year, reports from all parts of the
country to the Department of Agri-

year ago when the labor supply in
all sections was far below the demand.
Wages for farm labor this year, ac-

farm hands plentiful, although wage
demands were higher than farmers
are willing to pay.
