Prior of the playgrotinds commission is making in- quiries about the ‘City hall and throughout the city, regarding the propasition of holding band concerts on Sunday afternoons. He argues ‘that the holding of cof s on Sun- d#ys would pruvide pleasure for per- sons who otherwise spend the times in various unhealthful pursuits. From a poiut of attendancs, it has been proven in the past that eoncerts held in the evening have been far more satista. than those on Sun- ddys. For instance many persons spend the ‘week-énd at the shore, or visiting with relatives and many mothers who enjoy music and’ who can attend them at night would be deprived ‘of so doing on account of the houseliold duties of Sunday.

Clark, formally withdrew from Bayonne, N. J., at 7:30 o’clock last night, and placed the city again under the government of its commissionérs. Practically every man employed in the big works of the Standard, the Tidewater and the Vacuum, Ol companies had returned to work in the morning, and the de- parture of the ‘Sheériff's men marked the officfal termination of the strike, which had lasted for. mearly two weeks, had been marked by plstol battles between strikers, policemen, and oil guards, and had cost the lives of three men. The Standard Oil company issued a statement saying it had been consid- ering an increase of wages before the strike and would now take this matter up again. Letter of Thanks. Under Sheriit Clark received {rom Director of Public Safety Henry Wil- son a letter of thanks, in which was incloséd a notification to the direc- tor from Chief of Police Reilly that the city was again in position to con- duct its own affairs. Sherift Kinkead motored summer home in Deal, N. J., the care of his wife, shortly after o'clock in the afternoon. He haa come periously near a nervous break- down, the result of the intense men- tal and physical strain of the last week, when he had worked for prac- tically twenty hours out of every twenty-four. Dr, Bert Daly, & former mayor of Bayonngs called to attend him in his headquarters in the muni- cipal building, ordered immediate rest, declaring that otherwise the consequences would be serious. Friends sent for Mrs. Kinkead and the sheriff was hurried off after an alcohol rubdown. He looked as he said he felt, “all in.” Frees Tannebanm and Baly. His last day had beéen almost as busy as those that preceded it. At 5:30 o'clock he appeared at the Hud- son County jail in Jersey City, ana ordered the release of Frank Tanne- baum, the Industrial Workers of the World - agitator, and of Jeremiah J. Baly, the discredited, strike leader. Tannebaum he sent off at once, say- ing to him: “I release you because you're not a liar. You are a truthful man and not afraid to stand up for what you believe. You're a fighter. It's tzo bad you cannot turn your abilities 1o law and order. If you did they would get you somewhere. I am sorry for you, but I admire your grit.” ‘The Sheriff in his automebile took Baly to the oll ‘'works. = Stopping first at the Tidewater and then at the Standard Oil gates he called to the workers éntering these plants to gaze on tHe man. “This is Baly,” he shouted. “I want you to look at him, so yau’ll know him and not lét him come over here again to make trouble for your.” Giles Baly $4. Mr. Kinkead gave Baly $1 and told him to go home to Elizabethport. It was 8 o'clock then and all the workers had entered the plants. With the former strikers thus out of the way the Sheriff entered the Tidewater works and demanded of John Ham- mond the timekeeper, the names of all the private guards who had been employed for the strike. These men were preparing to quit the plant. Hammond sert for the Superintend- ént, Samuel H. Bdwards, who went to the gate with John Aller, Captain of the guards. Aller carried a rifle and was contemptuous of the Sheriff until Kinkead thrust a revolver in Aller's face and ordered him to drop his rifle. * The surprised Cap- tain did so. kg Denounces Gusirds At Plant. “You're under arrest’” exclaimed the Sheriff, and passed him over to deputies, Turning to Mr. tinued angrily. “I want every gunman and assis- sin you’ve got in this place. I don’t like the methods of wealth In em- ploying gunmen and toughs to shoot defenseless men and women any .maore than I like the methods of strikers in destroying -property.” Facing Aller, he went on: “¥our men had not the legal right to murder in defense of property alone, While disorder is not to be tolerated, the law does not permit wealthy corporations to shoot down defenseless men when destruction of property {s the only provocation, . It is not legal ner right to kil men except in defense of one’s own life, and I shall see to it that the murder of these strikers shall be looked into deeply, and every resource of the law be employed to avenge the kiil- ing of these men last week, Ninety-cight Guards Taken. At the Bheriff's order, ninety-eight guards were lined uyp before him and disarmed of pictols and clubs. Some had rifies, Thess were taken, too, and the Sheriff confiscated other rifles, one for each guard, that he found stored in an improvised arsenal. In the custody of ten Boulevard policemen the ofl guards wers march- ed to Police Headquarters, and there was scarcely a hoot from the women and children’ who locked on, where last weelk the appearance of these men would have caused a riot. From Headquarters they were taken to the Hudson County jall In patrol wagons and in a motor moving van in which sixty were packed standing with ropes at front and back, and with' police- men on the box and clinging to the tailboards. to his under Py Edwards he con- Justice Francis P.

It was arranged that the ninety- nine prisoners with the thirty guards arrested last Sunday, all of whom had been chargeda with inciting to riot, should be arraigned today be- fore Recorder Willilam J. Cain of Bayonne, sitting for convenience in Justice Swayze's chambers in Jersey City. All against whom the proseocu- tion can bring evidence "of shooting that resulted in the death of ihe strikers will be héld on & charge of murder. The others will be dis- charged. On behalf of the prosecutor it was announced that a vigorous investiga- tion would be made by his office of the death of John Strenauzaka, the boy who was killed on Wednesday o! last week.. The officials had been told that five men had laid their hands upon a Bible placed on the boy's cof- fin and had taken oath to kill a high police official, who, they declared, had fired the shot that killed the lads. The arrest of the oll guards was practically the last move in closing up the strike, though the sheriff ordered the arrest of six saloonkeepers who, thinking theé strike over, opened their saloons without permission, Have Idvely Encounter. The sheriff had-a lively encounter with Hugh H. Mard, director of streets and public improvements, whose ar- rest he had ordered late Tuesday night, Unknown to any but two dep- uties. Mr. Kinkead had ordered them to go to Mr. Mara’s hom 161 Avenue C. and arrest him on’ sight. He reached this décision after think ing over an emcounter with Commis- sioner in the Police Chiéf’s office ear- ly Tuesday evening. Hé had found Mr. Mara and Commissioner M. T. Cron- in, both adherents of H. Otto Witt- penn, the Sheriff’s rival in politics, in possession of the room and had asked them to leave that he might telephone a private message. Mr. Cronin did 80, but Mr, Mara refused to §o. The sheriff ‘sought another phone, and later the incident was repeated. The sheriff latér concluded to ar- rest. Mr. Mars, who was taken to Police headquarters, arraigned on a charge of ineiting to riot and released by Recorder Cain in $600. When Mr. Kinkead reached the bullding later he found Mr. Mara in conversation with Freeholdér Thomas J. Prior. Calling to 4 policeman, he told Mr. Mara he was under arrest, and to the policeman said: “Take him out to the corner and keep him there till I come.” Arrest Enrages Wittpenn Men. Wittpenn Democrats were enraged when they saw the Commissioner thus displayed as & prisoner, but he re- mained >n the ¢orner till the Recor- der hurried up and explained the sit- uation to ihe sheériff, who thereupon released thé commission. The sherift ordered Prior out of the bullding and followed nim to the steps, where he exclaimed: “Where were these city officlals when man weré being shot Not one of them was on the scéene. Why don’t they go down and make arrests of the men who were doing the shoot- ing? Lieutenani Keegan, in charge of the police,. had only his own men to back him up when trouble came, and he did goed work with the force he had, but where were these officlals who are crowding around headquar- ters now? John A. Moffitt and James A. Smyth, the federal mediators, wired Washing- ton yesterday: Standard Oil Company-s Statement. The Standard Ofl company at its offices in this city issued a statement in part as follows: “It has always been the policy of the Standard Ofl company to treat its men fairly and liberally and to keep their wages and working conditions at least equal to or in advance of the wages and working conditions of other men doing a similar class of work. As & result of this palicy the company has had no labor difficuities of any moment in the whole thirty-three vears of its history, “Being cognizant of the fabts, we cannot believe that the trouble at our Bayonne works wasg due cither to the working, conditions prevaliing there or to the wages pald, Previous to the present trouble there was not a man |’ in the plant that did not recelve at ieast $1.75 per nine hour day, The statement has been made that work- men received as low as 98 cents per day.

Later other < demands' ‘were presented by a man who represented himself to be an employe of the com- pany, but who, in fact, was not and uever had been in the empioy of the company. “As soon as the riotous conditions developed, the company notified the proper public authorities vr Lae eity of Bayonne, the county of Hudson, and the state of New Jorsey, and called upon them to restore peace and order, end to protect the empioyes and property of the company.
