The railroad presidents hold that e tension of the eight hour day to rail- road trainmen eventually means that it must be extended to all other rail- road workers and to many of those in industrial pursuits. Before the mecting of all the execu- tives with the committee today it be- came apparent that thero would be some difliculty in getting all the presi- dents to agree to any counter propos- als which involve an eight hour day with ten hours’ pay.

Meskill. For over an hour testimony of a very conflicting nature was offered by those connected with the affair until the case reached proportions at times that would be as easy to solve as some of the Sam Lloyd puzzles. Pleas of not guilty were entered by the following when their names were called : Thomas Heavey, interfering with an officer and assaulting Tony Beruska; John Berofski, drunkenness and interfering with an officer; Alex Newatski, interfering with an officer; Bruno Burko, assault and interfer- ence; Stanley Godszka, interference; Thomas Burkofski, interference, and Stella Rykavicz interference. Judge Willlam F. Mangan represented Miss Rykavitch, Heavey, Burko and New- atskl. Supernumerary Officer Michael O’Brien, who, with Officer Hellberg, made the arrests, was the first witness called. He testified that at 10 p. m. Miss Rvkavich rushed up to him in the hall and lodged a complaint against Berkosfski for striking her father. As he placed the accused man under arrest Newaski tried to strike the prisoner . The witness then placed Newaski under arrest and from that time until the patrol arrived, one of the liveliest times that has ever taken place on the “hill” occurred. Lead by Miss Rykavich, friends of Newaski made an onslaught on the officer, in which a stone played a prominent role, landing on the head of the police- man. When the patrol cawe and Newaski was placed in it, the attempts of the rescuing party became more strenuous, requiring Officer Hellberg to draw his gun and threaten to use it. Officer O'Brien said that during the melee Heavey hit Glossop for helping him. Glossop was next called as a witness. He said that while watching the nup- tial ceremonies he saw Berkofski hit the ‘‘old guy” and later both of them started ‘going it.” He also saw Burke take a hand in the mixup and then everybody started “banging and slam- ming.” Asked what part of the fra- cas s Rykavitch took part in, Glos- sop sald she pulled the officers’ arms and tried to liberate Newaski . During the battle one of the accused kicked the officer in the ribs. Joseph Farr, Philip Nelson, Martin Welsh and John Henry testified to the terrific struggle between the offlcers and the prisoners. Tony Beruska is evidently suffering from bad eve sight or else he handles the truth carelessly. In court :his morning he told the court that ITeav struck him, but testimony of Heery was directly opposite this. In their own behalf all of the pris- oners denied that they participated in the affair. Burko, who was one of the men mentioned frequently dur- ing the testimony, said that he was dancing with his girl when the trouble started, stopping his terpsichorean exercises to go out and witness the fight. Then he was srabbed by an officer. Michael Rykavich testified that Be: kofski commenced annoying him as soon as he arrived at the wedding, telling him that he was golng to treat him to “something nice,” a few min- utes later hitting him on the nose causing the blood to flow freely. All were found guilty with the cx- ception of Heavey who was discharged and the following penalties were im posed: Miss Rykavich $5, Goszda § Burko $20, Berkofski $12, Brushofslki and Newatski $10. ‘Wanted to Take a Ride. Peter Sarsa, aged 18 years, plead- ed guilty to the theft of a bicycle valued at $25, the property of John Busholz. The alleged theft was com- mitted early yesterday and when Busholz recognized the bicycle on Center street vesterday afternoon, he shouted to the rider who jumped from the vehicle and fled. .Busholz started in pursuit and notified Oflicer Moore, Who arrested the accusel. Sarsa admitted his guilt today, say ing that he simply “borrowed” the wheel to take a ride. A fine of $25 was Imposed. Fined For Assault. An argument wkich started in Nier's saloon on East Maln street last eve- ning terminated in police court this morning, when Clement Del Bara and John Cara were charged with assault- ing each other. The pair were ar- rested by Officer McCue, who saw Del Bara pull a picket off a fence and start in pursuit of Cara. In court Cara told a straightforward story about being attacked by Del Bara and two friends and in defense of him- self he struck the other man. Del Bara's story was a glib story about being an abused man, but his story brought him $5 and costs. Admlts His Guilt. Helgar Anderson, arrested this morning and charged with non-sup- port pleaded guilty. Owing to the absence of Mrs. Anderson tho case was continued until tomorrow morn- ing. Absent Witness Fined. Albert Lus who was cor ously absent when his name was as a witness vesterday morning, in court today on a caplas. He pleaded that he thought the case which he was connected had eunded Monday morning. A fine of $5 and costs was imposed. spici- called W St. Joseph's Young Men's society will meet this evening in the rectory of the parish to make further plans for a fleld day to be held some time next month.
