Insist More Men Register at
Labor Hall Daily.
SAY TRAIN SERVICE is "SHOT"
Regard Reports From Over the
System as Encouraging.
Claim Shop Conditions Are Far
From Normal.

No figures on the registration of
striking members of the shop crafts
were issued today by F. w. Rausch,
publicity manager for the strikers.
Rausch promised as early a compila-
ton of these figures as possible. He
pointed out that the registration
figures are not yet complete, and
check on the number of men actually
at work.
Some of the men, when they went
on strike, did not understand the reg
iStration system. Others have left
town without registering. AS a result,
there are more men on strike than we
have registered at the headquarters OF
the various unions at Labor Hail." he
declared today.
Rausch stated that it would be pos
sible to check up the last seniority
lists issued to all crafts except the car
men, March L. of this year, and to
approximate the number of men af-
fected by the strike order by that
means. Otherwise the strikers have
no means of knowing how many men
were at work when the strike was
called, nor how many of them walked
out.
Reports From Observers.
Reports from the observers of the
strikers, who are posted in the shops
were included in an official statement
issued Friday night by Rausch-
Quotations from that staetment are;
"Our observers from the blacksmith
shops report there is only one man on
the heavy fires, and that there is less than
1870 of men on the job now than there
were before the strike, by this we mean 1O9c
before the strike. What men are working
here are just standing around waiting for
Instructions but can't get them al the fore
men are too busy chasing down addresses
of the men who have went out on strike.
"Our electric department observers re-
port that of the seven men now in that de-
partment none are competent to pass an
examination that would permit them to do
installation work in the city, and 1t has
been suggested to them that they take up
a correspondence course. Competent men

THE ARMY

A portable sectional pile driver has
been developed by the Corps of En-
gineers to meet the needs of an army
moving rapidly forward, especially
through recently occupied enemy
territory, where there are no bridges,
or where the former permanent
bridges have to be replaced by tenn
porary wooden structures.
The unit is carried knocked down
on six three-and- one-half ton stand
ard Army trucks, can be assembled
by a competent crew in six hours, and
will handle large piles with the same
speed as the commercial drivers.
A great deal of thought has been
expended by the Corps of Engineers
in the selection of portable tool
chests and equipment. All the real
ly necessary tools must be included,
but no unnecessary weight is allowed.

National Guard Problem.

Gen. Richards, chief of the militia
bureau. is of the opinion that some
change might profitably be made in
regard to the National Guard strength
as represented by the senators under
the law.
The state of Delaware, the general
points out as an example. is required
to produce 1000 of its troops for the
two senators. and the same applies to
New York, although the population
of the former state is 100000 and
that of the latter 5000. 900, consti-
tuting what he believes to be an un-
fair representation Of the population
By the exclusion of senatorial rep
resentation Gen. Richards estimates
National Guard reductions will be
from 424.S00 to 34S000. This, he be-
lieVes, would necessitate in some
states a special provision but result
in more equitable and conductive

WIN BIC FIGHT
Re- Argument in Public Serv-
ice Case Denied by Err
rorS Court

TRENTON, Jan. 14-Re-argu-
ment in the Public Service-jitney
fight, in which the trolley corpora
ton tried and failed to prevent jit-
ney buses from operating on streets
used by it's cars. has been denied by
the court of errors and appeals.
This that the Public Ser
vice Corporation has exhausted it's
last legal remedy and must submit
to jitney competition unless it can
obtain help from the legislature.
The company was refused an in
junction restraining the jitneys by
Vice Chancellor Griffin, and appeal
ed the case to the errors court,
which split v to seven on the
case, and therefore failed to reach
any decision. Such failure resulted
in an actual affirmance of the vice
chancellor's lewiston. A %rehearing
was asked on the ground that one
member of the errors court, Judge
Van Buskirk, did not sit on the jit-
ney appeal, and that there should be
another hearing to give him a chance
to cast his vote and decide the case.
No reasons for denying the petition
CT the Public Service Corporation
were given by the court, which sim
ply announced orally that it was
denied.

Less Than 6 Arrests Were

The past week has seen less dis

years. according to officials of the
police department. Less than six
arrests we're made and the police
court sessions were short and to the
point. The extreme quietness of af-

were taken over. One was conSlgn-

NEW BRUNSWICK, Jan. 14:-A
number of local Greeks had their
holiday spoiled completely last night
when members of the police depart
ment headed by Chief O'Connell de-
scended upon an alleged gambling
house conducted at 26 Peace street.
The place had been under surveil-
lance for some time. according to
the chief, and last night was seized
upon as a favorable time to pull the
raid. in view of the fact that it was
a Greek holiday and the chance for
a haul seemed good.
The two proprietorS of the estab-
lishment were taken into custody
and will be arraigned before Re-
corder Tindell in the police court
tonight charged with running a
gambling house. With them were
arrested a number of patrons who
are held as witnesses.
