GROVES FINKS
ARREST EIG HIT
union MEMBERS
Were Looking for Them
Over Week

The dicks Of States Attorney Rob
ert =. Grove have finally got some
one they were looking for. Because
Of that they are breathing little
easier. Altho TIE persons arrested
are not the persons who did the
Daugherty killing or the boys who
tried to kill Hirshie Miller or any well
known criminals still the states at
torney's men have made a capture.

Last week eight members of the
international Ladies' Garment Work.
ers Union were indicted for con-
spiracy and malicious mischief. Ever
since then the dicks have been look
ing for them. The eight men did
not try to hide. They went about
their business as usual and the dicks
looked for them. The dicks looked
In vain. Maybe the dicks of the
states attorney had developed fatal
istic attitude and thought they could
not find any one.
So someone at the states attorneys
Office got bright idea. Why not ask
the lawyer for the union where these
men were?
So yesterday morning, some one
from the states attorneys Office called
R. ]. Rickert, lawyer for the union
and asked where they could find, Sam
Ross, Adolph Rodinowitz, Hyman
Goldman, Bruno Bontwisky, Joe
Caller Dan Glassman, Harry Martin
and Charles Roof, the men wanted.
Rickert after finding out what they
were wanted for agreed to deliver
them to the states attorneys Office
within an hour. Rickert kept his
promise and as soon as the men were
taken to the Criminal Courts building
had them bailed out.
Men Appear Voluntarily.
The men are all charged with en-
tering the shop of Blum & Templer
at 178 w. Adams St., on Feb. 27, and
getting the workers there to 90 out
on strike. Feb. 81, was the first dav
of the strike. It is understood that
the indictment against the eight men
was returned on Thursday, March 81,
and that the police have been look
ing for them ever since.
The seriousness with which the in
dicted men take the case against them
can be gagged by the fact that they
all agreed to go to answer the indict-
ment when they were told they were
wanted.
There is no indication when their
case will be tried.
Yesterday the picket line on S.
Market ST., was as we'll filled as dur
ing the first week Of the strike.
TxsroIva MEDIATE x.rara wvn.&oI
tachments, charging contempt Of
court. They were all taken to Judge
SuIlivan's court.
The girls arrested did not get e
preliminary hearing before lunch and
were held till afternoon by the sheriff.
Catherine Fisher Maltreated.
Catherine Fisher a member of the
National Women's Party, who has
been interested in the strike of the
garment workers was on S. Market
st., when some of the girls were ar
rested on attachments. After find
ing out where they were being taken
she went to Judge Sullivan's court
and asked a bailiff for permission
to talk to the girls. Permission was
granted and Miss Fisher went into the
jury room where the girls were.
She had no sooner gone in than
another bailiff told her to get out She
was leaving when the bailiff grabbed
her by the arm. The door to the
court room was open and Miss Fisher
cried out because of the pain. Sulli-
van ordered her brought before him
and gave her lecture on manners in
court and ordered her to leave the
court room and not come back.
