COMPANY.

 

GAY

WITH

PR ETTY . .
GOODS,

Solid with sensible goods,
and honest with cheap price
goods—a terse description of
your favorite shopping place.

We advertise Parasols, you
are buying Laces. Our
minds chance to be on Mat-
tings, you are thinking of
Wash Dress Goods. When
we agitate Hosiery, you want
Crockery. Sometimes we
wonder how you can resist
the beauty and quality of
our Silks and Wool Fabrics,
and you are talking of new
Carpets and handsome Up-'
holstery.

But!

We notice one thing.

This store seems to secure
your trade, no matter in
which direction our thoughts
may be turned—a compli-
ment of which we may well
feel proud.

 

Speaking of Crockery, we
like to have you look at this,
that, and the other—like to
have you ask the prices as
you go from one point to
another. VVe’d like to be at
your home, too, when the
purchase arrives and listen to
the favorable comments from
the rest of the family. lVe’d
like to watch them while the
package is being undone—
———the look of expectancy,
surprise, pleasure, satisfac-
tion. There isn’t half the
pleasure in selling that there
is in buying. '

 

As a matter of fact, we
never sold Parasols as we’ve
sold them the past ten days.
Not much profit in it, to be
sure, but it satisfies our ambi-
tion to outdo all past records
in this line.

 

Did you ever see such a
variety of good things in
such a limited space as there
is around that Notion coun-
ter ? Such small prices too.

A STRIIililETAlLORS.

Brotherhood Workers Are Making War
Upon the Task System.

MORE THAN 16,000 QUIT WORK

Contractors Alleged to Have Broken Last
Year’s Agreements—Police Summon-
ed to Disperse a. Mob of Brook-
lyn XVindow Smashers.

NEW YORK, July 30.—The long expect-
ed strike of the Brotherhood of Tailors is
on in earnest.

More than 16,000 persons engaged in
the making of coats of all kinds are out in
obedience to the order given by the general
executive board.

The strike, it is claimed by the workers,
was caused by 80 contractors looking out
nearly 1,000 workmen, and also by the
failure of the contractors to live up to the
agreement made with il 0 brotherhood last
fall, when a general strike against the
task system was brought to a. successful
and by the unions.

The men and women on strike include
operators. tailors, finishers, pressers, bush-
elors, bastors, buttonholo makers, fellers
and thread pullers. Of the 16,000, 8,000
are in this city, 6,000 in Brooklyn and
Brownsville, 1,200 in Newark, where the
strike was ordered today, and 900 Lithu-
anian tailors in this city and East New
York.

“We have done all we could to avert
this strike,” said Meyer Schocnfeld, gen-
eral organizer of the United Garment
Workers and leader of the Brotherhood of
Tailors last fall.

“We asked the Contractors’ association
to stick to the agreement and not force
our members into the old task system
again, but they would not listen to our
appeals and locked out our men and shut
down their shops and failed to pay wages
honestly earned.

“‘Vero Forced to' eitrike.”

“Repeated warnings failed, and we were
forced to strike. We will win this strike
as we did that of last year when we broke
up the task system and had our members
employed at a minimum scale of wages,
ranging from $9 to $15 a week of 60 hours.
Now we ask for a renewal of the agree-
ment of Sept. 15, 1894, with reduction of
one hour only, so as to give our members
time to do necessary shopping on Friday
night, preparatory to the observance of
the Hebrew Sabbath, as all our members
are of that faith.”

A general mass meeting is to be held in
Cooper Union hall tomorrow night.

A settlement committee is in session
continually at New Windsor hall and is
prepared to settle with any contractors
who desire to sign the agreements.

Mr. Schoenfcld said that tailors’ strikes
would also occur in Chicago, Baltimore
and Boston and would be conducted on
the same lines as the one in progress here.

There» are 100 contractors who have
shops in tenement houses, where 500
brotherhood men and women were em-
ployed. It is the intention of the union to
break up those sweatshops, and no com-
promise will be made with their propri-
etors.

Secretary Witkowsky of the Coat Cou-
tractors’ Mutual Protectivc association, at
200 East Broadway, said that the mem-
bers of that body had not locked out their

men, and he laid the responsibility for the
strike on the brotherhood men.

“We have not brought about this trou-
ble,” he said, “and have always been will-
ing to meet the union half way. ”

Rows In Brooklyn.

The strikers in Brooklyn congregated
today and visited 91 Sicgel street, the office
of the Coat Contractors’ association.

In the rear of the ofice is a shop con—
ducted by Emanuel Silverstein. Accord-
ing to Mrs. Silverstcin the strikers broke
into her room and assaulted her. She has
a. broken pitcher, which she says one of
the strikers threw at her.

There were fully 1,000 persons in front
of 91 Siegel street when a policeman from
the Sixth precinct appeared. He telephoned
to police headquarters and a patrol wagon
With 20 policemen from the Stagg Street
station arrived and dispersed the crowd:

From 91 Sicgel street the strikers went
to 42 Siegcl street, where Louis Schachner
conducts a shop.

Stones were thrown in the window, but
no one was hurt.

The next place visited was 151 Siegel
street, Isaac Beller’s shop. No disturbance

was raised here except to shout at workers
to come out and join the strikers, which

. they refused to do.

Police Captain Buckholz detailed a doz-
en poiicemen in citizens’ dress to the
neighborhood of the sweatshops. He also
placed extra men on all the street corners.
The appearance of the police had the effect
of quieting the strikers.

There was a small riot at the sweat-
shop of Kaufman & Cohen, at 57 Siege]
street.

The firm’s 200 employees went out on
strike, and when men came to take their
places the strikers rebelled.

There was a hair pulling and scratching
match between the union and nonunion
hands for half an hour, and then a platoon
of police from the Sixth precinct swooped
down on tho tailors and scattered them.
The nonunion men went to work, guarded
by three officers. N o arrests wore made.

.. ‘ THE DURANT CASE.

3 Play Based on the Crimes.

SAN FRANCISCO July 80.—One hundred
and fifty-five ini errogatories have been
prepared for Charles H. Clarke, the trav-
eling wine man, to aDSWer ”in Boston about
the charges of murder against Durant.
The police do not lace much‘ confidence in
the statement t at his testimony is all
important for theidefensc.

The district attorney has taken the pre-
caution of having his questions for cross
examination covar every movement of
Clarke since he left California. One very
pointed query is Whether Clarke was said
to leave this state in order to avoid testi~
fying. From the trend of the questions it
is believed some of the persons in the east
with whom he has conversed regarding
Durant will be called upon to repeat his
statements.

Lively times are expected when the
play. “The Crime of a Century,” is pre-
sented at the Alcazar theater. Judge Mur-
phy has said that the play will not go on.
Manager Dailoy says that the play will be
presented in spite of the order from the
court. The present plan is to refuse to
recognize any formal order issued byJudge
Murphy, and if arrests follow habeas
corpus proceedings will be had, provided
any judge can be found who will act.

A squad of police is to be at the the-
ater to enforce any order the court may is-
sue. It is said by some lawyers that J 11ng
Murphy has no right to restrain the per-
formers. Other attorneys say the court
has not the right, but that it will be very
unlikely that any other court will grant a
writ of habeas corpus under such peculiar
circumstances. The charge against Dolley
and his company will be contempt of court
in case they are arrested. The outcome is
awaited with considerable interest.

 

Slugger Corbett Divorced.

NEW YORK, July 30.—-—Referee Edward
Jacobs filed his report today in the suit

finds that Corbett has been guilty of im-
proper conduct and recommends that Mrs.
Corbett be allowed $100 a week alimony
during her lifetime.

Eastern League Negotiations.
SCHENECTADY, N. Y., July 30.—Man-
ager Chapman of the Toronto baseball
team of the Eastern league is negotiating
with parties in this city for the transfer of
his franchise to Schenectady. His next
home season will begin Aug. 21, and the
deal will doubtless be consummated by
that time.
