INJUNCTION
JUDGE FOELL
SCOLDSCIRLS
''DGnnie'S" Successor Talks
To PickGtS Like Old Maid


Judge Charles M. Foell let
it be known yesterday that he
will be as tyrannical and high
handed in endeavoring to stop
the picketing of garment strik-
ers as was his czarist prede-
cessor, 'Dennie' Sullivan.
In postponing the 43 injunc-
ton cases willed him by his
bloated colleague, Judge Foell
took occasion to deliver a lee
ture to the strikers which
sounded as if weak old maid
school teacher were trying to
impress her pupils on the first
day of school.
Weak. Old Maidish Judge.
Il want It clearly understood that
know the law said Foell, after
ranging the girl strikers around
him. YOU must not go on the
picket line between now and Tues
day morning when your cases come
up.
IF you do you will be very
severely punished. To picket is to
break the law, and you might as
we'll understand right now that the
court intends to enforce the law"
1t is now revealed why Sullivan
plastered such heavy sentences on
the last striker to come before him.
He was giving Judge Foell the cue
that il is the wish of the employers
to exact exorbitant fines as an at
aipt to keep the strikers off the
icSet lines. The strikers did not
seem much impressed by Foell's lit
tie lecture. Several of them smiled
at him openly, and Foell had to
hammer on the desk with his fist
keen their attention.
ndge Foell is p.ftifully weak
~. In spite of his small stature,
hi badness ard his weak eyes, an
unfortunate conceit makes him APP
pear quite ridiculous. 1t is pointed
out by court room attaches that
Foells very weakness of character
might make him all the more unjust
in imposing fines on strikers, as he
vii use that as a means to show his
importance.
Fourteen more strikers were ar
rested on Market street this morn
ing, but the picket lines IRE holding
as solid as ever.
Sullivan's court is closed. He
was bleary eyed and siclEly yester-
day, his last day in court. IS were
many Of the city hall people who
had imbibed election moonshine too
freely. Those who have regard for
real justice are glad to see the
domineering Sullivan leave the city.
The only notoriety he achieved was
as a tool of the bosses, who in or
der to do their bidding. excessively
fined and sentenced to Jail working
girls whose only crime was in striv-
ing TO earn living wage for them
selves and their families. Sullivan
released 81 on appeal bonds before
leaving, the union putting up twen-
ty-one thousand dollars worth of
bonds
The Joint Board of the Amalga-
mated Clothing Workers has ap-
proved the decision to aid the strik-
ers financially and ten thousand dol
lars will be immediately turned over
to the strikers.

today, giving the Executive Board
Of the international Ladies' Gar
ment Workers Union details of the
