W Before Magistrate Corrlgan In the Venerable court house next door the per suasive tones of Duke Joseph were strident in argument ana protest: ..Kit Is all right. If your Honor pleases, jbat the police should be vigilant and Jou and should do their full duty to the end that crime may be stamped out fair city and the name of the American people be maintained before the nations. ,\Dut In this case, It your Honor pleases, there Is presented -- a phase of criminal law and procedure new in this \M any forum. It Is that If a Kane of loafers purloin the chalra and the coun- sel table and the electric light globes OUtJ of my office and take them to the bsemeiit and there with them as la proceed to break the law and fetage in low gambling as common gam-Wr- s, and the cops bust In and nail my malrs and counsel table and electric Kght'Tjulbs as paraphernalia and evi- dence, where do I come in?\ While the Duke expounded twenty-V- : young men of the neighborhood sat H a row behind him, all deeply Impressed Wtits eloquence and nudging one an-sw- ir from time to time as he rounded speriod or scored a point Suddenly the Xnike swung toward them. \i; Bees Inlqnltr In the Low. tft- - ?,t'lHere,\ he cried, \are the alleged amblers, who were pinched. But your Hon6r haa discharged them all, thus It as law that, although they .were pinched, they are not gamblers. But for my furniture no such summary Justice Is meted out and the police yet have' ljt In custody.\ ,,' And there, so far as the Duke or the iCaglstrate can command the law, the Witter hangs fire. An Inspector of po-- 'as the Duke understands It, Is sole arbiter as to when and whom the furnl-tu- rt shall be brought back, and as the Duke says this supplies overwhelming .tytdence that there Is something radi- cally Inequitable about the course of cflmlnal justice, since In this case an Innocent thltd party Is deprived of his lights, while his law library and his typewriting machines and his filing cabl-n- et and his clerical force represent an investment earning no Increment In clear Derogation of the principle of the law, '.Which promises every citizen that there eon be no wrong without a remedy.

Out of \an axis of disturbance\ ex- tending from New England southwest to Louisiana, to use the phraseology of Meteorologist James H. Scarr, there may( amble y, wintry weather for this neighborhood. The modest tem- perature of 56 yesterday's maximum, with the air on tho point of saturation most of the day, may fall to the frees-In- g point (32) or below. . The drizzle of last night probably will change Into snow, and perhaps a blast out of the northeast may assault, these' boroughs before the sun goes down and make firesides with coal or steam heat worth loafing before. GIRL SPEEDER AND . COP IN EXCITING RIDE \Mary Brown\ Held to Grand Jury for 6th Avenue Thrill. Mary Brown, as she was listed at Traffic .Court, croated a stir In Sixth avenue, Just on the borders of Green- wich Village, yesterday by swinging her runabout. Into that thoroughfare at a pace which a patrolman swore was forty-fiv- e miles an hour. Mary started for Times Souare with dash and vim. careening past heavy trucks and scaring pedestrians. Patrolman James McGovern of the Charles street station was ono of the first to .take note of Mary's inspired driving. He boarded another car; and by speeding, he said, he managed to catch up and Jump' to the running board of Mary's car. From then on,' the pa- trolman said, Mary ran at fifty miles an hour, paying no heed to his Injunctions to stop. McGovern finally drew \a re- volver and Jabbed so sharply against Mary's back that she obeyed the order to stop. The woman Insisted her name was Mary Brown, but declined to fgiy'e any other Information about herself. She first said she lived In Greenwich Village and later gave an address In West Twentieth street. Magistrate House or- dered her held in $2,000 ball for tho Grand Jury on a charge of driving while Intoxicated. PRINTERS' LEAGUE TO MEET WORKERS Adjustment of Wage Scale la Expected on Tuesday. The Printers League notified 'the exec- utive council of the International Typo- - graphical Union yesterday jt its will ingness to resume negotiations with the local union. A- conference 'will take place probably next Tuesday, at which the details for final adjustment of the wage scale will be arranged. Jt will bo a month or more before the printing Industry here returns to normal. Although tho strike failed of Its object It was one of the most serious that over disrupted the printing trade. An official of the Printers League fig- ured that 10,000 workers earning from $40 to $70 a week sacrificed approxi- mately $3,600,000. It is more difficult to estimate what the strike cost shop own- ers, but one plant alone places Its losses at $200,000. More than 250 shops were tied up. Magazine publishers who sent their work out of town had to pay high' for It. It was reported that $23,000 was paid for getting out one issue of a periodical that ordinarily cost $9,500. The general opinion among, employing printers, however, Is that the victory was worth the price. It was more than a question of wages and hours; tho stabil- ity of labor was at stake, conservatives contend. Had the radical element won many publishers Intended going out of business, they said. WOMAN, 70, DIES IN FIRE: FOUR RESCUED 23 Carried Out of Another Brooklyn Blaze. After Patrolman Frank Center yester- day had scaled a leader pipe at the side of a burning three story frame bul4pg at s Monitor street, iirooKiyn, and car- ried to safety Mr. and Mrs. Harry Ward and their two small children It was found that Mrs. Catherine Henlch, aged 70, who lived with the Wards, was miss ing. The fire by that time had filled the lower floors. A search of tha upper part of the building was unavailing. Half an hour later members of a res- cue equad fought their way Into the basement and found the body of Mrs. Benlch with most of her clothing burned away. It was believed ehe went Into the basement with a lighted candle and accidentaly caused the fire. Twenty-thre- e persons yesterday were carried out of a two story rooming house at 262 North Tenth street, Brooklyn, by police and firemen. The building, which caught Are from a burning garage of Llcher Bros, next door, was soon filled with dense oil fumes. Some of the chil- dren rescued were dropped Into life nets. Several tenants were overcome by smoke, but none was seriously burned. Houses nearby were emptied by ordor of the firemen. Twenty automobiles In the garage were damaged. The total loss was put at $25,000. \FINE!\ SAYS ARTIST 'OF HIS OWN PICTURE Asked for Criticism, He Makes Odd Discovery. Chllde Hassam. artist, of 130 West Fifty-sevent- h street, was Invited by Frank K. M. Rehn, an art dealer, of 6 West Fiftieth street, to express his opinion about a painting that hung In Rehn's gallery. The pnlntlng is entitled \Flower Girl Selling Peonies.\ Hassam adjusted his spectacles criti- cally and took a long look at the picture.' \Excellent said he finally. Rehn rubbed his hands with satisfac- tion. \Fact Is,\ Hassam added, \t painted that picture myself In Paris In 1889. Haven't seen It since I moved In 1903.\ The artist then explained that the painting disappeared while en route on a moving van from one house to 'another. A bundle of rugs departed along with It and he was never able to trace the paint- ing or the rugs. Hassam demanded tho return' of the painting from Rehn. but the de&leV de- clined. Rehn said he had bought It In good faith from CharKs J. McDonough, who also was an Innocent purchaser. Hassam started a replevin action yes- terday In the Supreme Court for tho re- covery of tho painting. U. S. BUILT WOODEN SHIP LOST.

CITY IS THANKFUL Markets Stripped Early of s Choice Birds Storage Varioty Passed Up. EVERYBODY WILL FEAST Less Fortunate Are to Bo Sup- plied by Hospital and Other. Societies. Thankful, no doubt, that 'the price of turkeys was not more than seventy cents a pound,,the people of tho cly took ovcry one that could be had. Something like 2,000,000 pounds or turkey were landed In New York for Thanksgiving, and it was difficult last night to find one for sale. Every ono who could afford a turkey bought one, Bo dealers say, and '.he prices ranged from forty-tw- o to seventy cents a pound. It was noticeable that the highest priced birds were In greates. demand. Almost no cold storage turkeys were sold. Many persons have been seen riding home in tho subway the last week with a live chicken wrapped up and tucked under an arm. Llvo chickens .were lower 'in prlce this year than '.hey have beert ri some time. The reason for this is that labor has been so scarce out West that' the dealers did not have time '.o dress 'their fowls and ship them East neatly plucked and packed., They Just crated them alive' and sent them along, to bo Bold for twenty-si- to forty cen'.s a pound retail. Indications tend to show that to-d- Is going to be Just as much of a day of Thankfglvlng as if the high cost of liv- ing had never been heard of; Those who canno. afford appropriate dinners aro going to have them presented to them. Girl scouts will be out bright and early to-d- with baskets of food for the needy. Turkeys, chickens and all the trimmings from cranberries to pumpkin pie will bo handed out Three and a half tons of turkey and chicken will be set down In tho forty-si- x hospitals which are members of the United Hospital Fund. Arrangements have been - made for furnishing dinners to East Sldo families or soldiers killed In France. Baskots of food will be distributed, at the Peo- ple's Hospital by Julian Goldman, head of tho hospital and president of tne downtown Chamber of Commerce. Re- turned soldiers will take some of theai baskets to families who have lost a member In the war. All over the city services will bo heH In churches, Thanksgiving cheer will be carried to the fleet In the river by the K. of C. and the cruiser Buffalo will bo the scene of a performance' for officers and men. LOWER MILK PRICES IN STORES UNLIKELY Wholesaler Says Controlled Mpnopoly Would Be an Aid. Patrick D. Fox, nt of the Borden's Farm Products Company, told Arthur Williams, Federal Food Admin- istrator, yesterday that with a regulated monopoly In this State It would be pos- sible to deliver milk to grocery stores at a reduction from the present price. Mr. Williams had called a meeting of milk distributers to try to discover whether some means could be found by which Grade 2 milk could be purchased from retail stores at less than 19 cents a quart. 'The conditions,\ Mr. Fox said, \make It virtually Impossible for us to reduco our price of bottled milk to the They have little or no con- ception of the value of bottles to us. Then, again, the cost of grocery deliv- eries Is almost as high as Individual de- liveries. \If wo were permitted to combine tha m(lk companies of the city Into a mo- nopoly regulated by the State and di- rected by a board composed of pro- ducers, consumers and distributers wo would be able to establish a scparatb corporation devotod to supplying gro- cery stores with, bottled milk. At pres- ent if we attempt to reduce the price of milk to retailers we would have to ad-an- the cost of milk sold directly to consumers.\ The distributers agreed to confer on the advisability of reducing the price to the grocerymen, but' did so without giv- ing much hopo for success under tha present system. They aro to report to Mr. Williams next week. IMMIGRATION CUTTER IS LOST IN BAY'S FOG Finally Picks Up Italian Liner, In Fromi Trieste. The Italian steamship Belvedere, in yesterday from Trieste and Mediterran- ean ports was held up several hours In a pea soup fog while the immigration cutter Immigrant made an effort to pick her out of the almost total obscuration down the bay.

Christopher Slattery, eleven years Roman Catholic chaplain In Bolle-vu- o Hospital, returned by the Bclvedero from a two months' trip abroad, visiting Rbme and Ireland. He said the Irish Would be satisfied with nothing less than absolute Independence from England. Nlckolo Ferlorn, an Itntlan sailor from Trieste, did not like the way the Im- migration officers checked off the crew, and made so much noise '.hat Inspector J. F. Mann remonstrated with him. After Ferlora had answered the usual questions Me was sent out of the room. He returned with a sailor's knife, but before he could do nriy harm he was seized by sailors, who took .he knife from him. Dr. James Gillespie, Publlo Health Officer, examined Ferlora and ordered him to Ellis Island for observa- tion. HARTOG GLUCOSE SUIT DISMISSED Murphy Involved in Bonus Suit of Brothers.
