Es- siger, 959 E. 82nd St., Brooklyn, was treated for a lacerated fore- head and then taken home. The iron stairway just missed landing on the third rail as it fell to the tracks, and the workers nar- rowly escaped death by electrocu- tion, Two trains, which were on the bridge at the time, were stopped near the center, and their occupants, mostly workers on their way to fac- tories and shops, were forced to walk back to the ‘Manhattan side.

Unemployed miners, numbering with their fami- lies 1,000,000 persons, are spending their Christmas here in extreme in a condition be- low the starvation level. The British government and_ its charity organizations have made a“ great public noise about sending the unemployed workers gifts and food, but, as was expected, all this talk has proven to be nothing but empty phrases, and altogether the govern- ment fund amounts to $750,000, representing the absolutely inade- quate amount of $2.50 for each min- er and nothing for wives and chil- dren, At the same time the South Wales mine owners are cutting the substinence wage of the workers even more, thus leaving them al- most entirely penniless.
