$4,000 BACK AT WORK
IN CLOTHING STRIKE
Fight Against Non Union
Shops Partly Won.

Twelve thousand Of the $4,000 mems
clothing wo-lsrs who quit work at 10
O'Clock yesterday morning on the second
stoppage order of the Amaigamated
Clothing Workers Of America will re-
turn to work to-day. 1t was announced
yesterday by Hyman Blumberg. mana
ger of the New York joint board.
Mr.. Blumberg said that a settlement
had been arranged with lis OF the larg-
est manufacturers who employ from
10000 to l4.Do0 workmen. Between 900
and 400 small employers have not yet
compiled with the union demand that
cut goods are not to be sent out to nom
union contractors. but il Is expected that
most of .hese will acquiesce within a
few days.
The Amalgamated began It's campaign
against non-union shops last week when
10000 workers on ch,ldrens garments
quit work. -he trouble began last year
Mr.. Blumberg said. when some of the
manufacturers failed to live up to an
agreement made in June by which they
were to furnish the Amalgamated with
a list of the contractors to whom they
were sending wcrk. Because Of this tho
union had no way of checking UP on
tho contractors. and many Of them were
enabled to run ron-un,on shops
The stoppage was extended to Newark
yesterday, when 1900 workers were
ordered to quit.

BABY HIPPOPOTAMUS
GUEST HERE OVER NIGHT
Puts Up at Zoo on His Way to
Boston.

Sultan Fatmah H., baby hippopota-
mus. on his way from Philadelphia to
Boston. spent last night here. He was
the city's guest, with headquarters in
Bronx Park. The uncertainty and
tardinese of baby hIppo's arrival pre-
vented Mayor Hylan from giving him
an official welcome, and New York's
Mayor thus lost an opportunity to outdo
Mayor Curley of Boston, who will re-
ceive Sultan on his arrival there.
The hippo special. an automobile
truck especially designed for Sultans
comfort. was to have arrived at the
New York Geological Park from FhiIa-
delphia at o'clock last evening. but
was delayed by thunderstorm.
Sultan appeared immensely pleased
when he saw a small crowd to receive
him. He did fancy a demonstration.
he grunted. and the quiet welcome
suited him much better than what he
expects at the hands of Mayor Curley
and Bostons school children. His little
flexible ears wagged to and fro In con-
stant motion as he tried to catch every
question and his broad round muzzle
wrinkled into a wide grin as some OF
his friends poked wild grass and vege-
tables to him through the iron bars.
Sultan is one of the few Of his kind
to live long after birth in captivity
He was purchased from the Philadel-
phia Geological Garden. his birthplace
for 5000 in pennies and other small
coins contributed by the school children
Of Boston. Sultan recently celebrated
his fourth birthday and weighs some
where around ton.

OFFICIALS ARE DIVIDED

For the present there will be no raids
on liquor carrying ships-either Amer

decision of the Washington authorities.
1t was announced yesterday by Ralph A.
Day. Prohibition Director.
Roy A. Haynes. National Prohibition
Commissioner, and r. c. Yellowley.
chief Of general field enforcement agents,
had long conference on the subject
yesterday with Director Day. who will
await the Washington decision as TO
whether his men will make test case
OF such a proposed raid. Mr.. Day said :
1T Is understood that the question
as to the right of ships of American or
foreign registry sailing from or to
American ports, possessing, transporting
or selling liquors which are sealed within
the three mile limit, Is under considera-
tion of several interested Governmental
departments at Washington.
"As It Is known. there have been sew
eral differences of opinion In the minds
OF eminent counsel In the various Gov
ernmental departments involved. 1t will
not be the policy of this department to
act differently in this matter than In
the past on vessels entering New York
Harbor until further instructions have
been received from Washington based on
a decision of the Department of Justice,
which Is expected"

FALSTFIED FOR CREDIT,
GETS 3 MONTHS IN JAIL
Justice Salmon Makes on Ex-
ample in Fraud Case.

BENJAMIN Leipzig, of 1921 Union
street. Brooklyn. was sentenced to three
months in the workhousc when he con-
fesscd yesterday in Special Sessions to
having made false financial state
ment Justice Salmon said the court
wished to make an example Of the de-
fcndant TO deter others from committing
the same misdemeanor. which constantly
was growing moro frequent.
The case was presented for prosecu-
tion by the Merchants Protective Asso-
citation. It's president. Henry p. McKen-
NY. In urging the court to impose Jail
sentence. declared that merchants we're
defrauded OF millions every year through
false financial statements Offenders. he
said. we're becoming bolder because OF
light punishment.
II is alleged that Leipzig made false
statement in January. 1921. to A. a.
Auffmordt & Co.. as a result OF which
credit OF approximately s11, 900 was ex-
tended to Leipzig. II was later found
he was insolvent. he was forced into
bankruptcy and his creditors received
only fifteen cents on the dollar.
Mr.. McKenny said
"Tf n debtor can swindle and defraud
his creditors to the extent Of over $780,
900 and receive a suspended sentence
or a fine OF $1,000 that In our Judgment
Is worse than an acqulttal, for Il leaves
the door to commercial frauds wide

HYLAN HARNESSES NIAGARA
AND HE'LL GATE IN DREAMS
Mayor Confdes to Board of Estimate His Vision of
Using Nature to Smash Gas and
Electric Companies.

Mayor Hylan now has plan to take
over the electrical conduits In the city.
harness Niagara Falls, the currents at
He'll Gate and the tides in the lower
bay. and supply the householders of
the municipality with cheap light heat
and power. thereby putting out OF busi-
ness the Consolidated Gas Company and
few other corporations.
II had a dream last night; i had an
idea and dreamed about it," the Mayor
told the Board of Estimate. sitting in
committee of the whole and discussing
the granting of franchise to the Hess
Electrical Protective Corporation, which
wants to do a burglar alarm business,
running its wires through the conduits
which is generally known as a sub
sidiary Of the New York Telephone
Company.
This will drive the gouging gas COM
panies out OF business" said the Mayor.
When the city gets control OF these
conduits 1t will be possible to sell cleo
tricity SO cheap that every poor family
will find 1t economical to light their
homes and cook their food by electricity.
have been told that 1t Is possible to
send electricity from the hydro-electric
plants along the Canadian border to
New York city and sell 1t here at 4
cents a kilowatt hour. The entire
province of Ontario lights its homes and
cooks it's food by electricity originating
at Niagara Falls. The excess waters
OF the Barge Canal can be harnessed
and supply almost unlimited power for
the benefit of the people. II Is not be-

yond the range OF probability that one
day our big engineers will be able TO
utilize the tides in the lower bay ana
He'll Gate and other currents for the
production OF electric power"
When the city leased the conduits
years ago. the Mayor went on. the tax
payers were "sold out" and the leases
are so worded that one company has a
so-called debt of s12,000,oo0 and the
other has debt of $2.000,000. which
must be paid before the city gets any
thing The high tension wire conduits
are leased to the Consolidated Telegraph
and Electric Subway Company and the
low tension condutts to the Empire City
Subway Company. There are about
5000 miles OF condu!ts. and about one
half of these are in use.
+. C. NJ Rand. conduit chief In the
Department of Water Supply. said thai
the companies leased the conduits at a
rental of SIS mile. He was directed
to prepare all data and an estimate OF
the cost of recapturing the plants.
Several city administrations have be-
gun In one way or another to either
take over the conduits or to make the
companies share their profits with the
city At one time the city's Law De-
partment had special force working
on some such project and great deal
of the citys money was spent thereon.
There has been long litigation in the
courts and costly proceedings before ref
erees. but the situation with reference
to the conduits remains about what
1t was twenty years ago.

q. o. p. CLUB WILL BACK
ANY WET CANDIDATE
He'll Gate Republicans De.
nounce All Dry Laws.

Joseph Goldsmith. chairman OF the
He'll Gate Republican Club. in an ad-
dress last night at meeting OF the
club at AT East Eighty-fifth street
said that the organization would sup
port any wet candidate for any office
regardless of his political complexion.
Resolutions were adopted denouncing
the Volstead and Mullan-Gage prohibi-
ton enforcement laws and urging their
repeal or modification.
These enforcement measures. It was
held. encourage law breaking. increase
taxation, work moral degeneration
among young men and women and are
absolutely futile.
