Household Goods of Tenants at Nos. 514 and 516 East Twelfth Street Piled Up on the Sidewalk. RENT RAISED $1 A MONTH, AND THEY REFUSED TO PAY. While the Marshals Were Mov- ing Them Out They Offered’ to Stay, but Landlord De- clined to Let Them. Fifteen families, members of their own, Fent-protective association, were to-day dicted from the tenement-house at Nos. U4 and 616 East Twelfth streot because they would not submit to an increase of Hi each a month ‘2 the rent. A city marshal ith a score of husky @ssistarts s-rooped down on the house Rhis afternoon and carted all of the (furniture and possessions of the fifteen fecalcitrants to the sidewalk. The goods made a heap fifteen fect high and extending sixty feet long and from the building line nearly to the middle of the street. Three policemen were called to watch the mass of home- less furnishings. When the landlord, George Bader, motified the tenants that their rent mould be raised $1 Isaac Silver, one of them, organized the others and they all agreed that they would not pay the increase. ‘This notice was posted in the halls: “You don’t want to pay the landlord. This house is on strike.” Several meetings were held in Sil- ver's room ‘and {t 1s said all of the tenants agreed they would not pay the increased rent, which to have been collectad the first of this monta, Five of them, when served with the Mispossess notices yesterday reconsid- ered and paid the demanded rent, say- 4ng they thought that Silver's organiza- tion would not so protect them that they could stay in the premises without paying the extra dollar. While the moving was in progress to-day Silver called the other tenants together and after a consultation they waited on the landlord and announced they would pay the increase. But Bader sald it was then too la! that he did not want them in the place, Anti-Rent Strikes. Strikes have been declared on eighty- ‘two east side tenement-houses by the enants’ Rent Protective Association, wot New York.

Port Warder Charlle Adler's stone is one. Over in the Eighth Assembly District, where every man in politics Wears diamonds, they stways call ‘om stones, The way Oharley lost hts is Queer, and he ts looking for $300 com- pensation. “I went to a Turktsh bath uptown the other night,’ he sa; “I took the @nohor off my stone, unscrewed out of my front, and gavo It to the clerk. He put it into one of the lockers in the big safe. “‘Take good care of that flash,’ I mays to the guy. ‘It was giv to me by my constituents in de ate.’ “Aw g'wan,' says he, ‘We have tons of them locked up in this yer safe,’ “ ‘80,’ I says. ‘Wel, you ain't got any bether than mine and neither has Dia- mond Charley Cramer.’ When Charley Adler had been rubbed, werubbed and had enjoyed a calm sleep, he started to leave and got lis valu- ables, but the stone was missing.

Davis De- clines to Set Aside Justice Bischoff’s Decree Annulling Marriage to Ice Magnate. Justice Vernon M. Davis, of the Su- Ppreme Court, has thrown the first ob- stacle in the way of the effort to undo the work of secret divorces and annul- ments In the Dodge-Morse complication by refusing to set aside Justloe Bis- choff's decree annulling the marriage of Clemence Cowles Dodge to Charles W. Morse, the fce-trust magnate and owner of a string of banks. On the hearing in thts application, made by Samuel Untermyer in behalf ot Charles W. Morse, as on the previous proceeding by Morse to reinstate the Dodge divorce, one of ex-Justice Furs- man‘a office assistants appeared and after onrefully reciting that, Justice Foreman had had no communication with hie olfent, Mrs. Morse, and there- fore did not know from her just what he desired in the premises, said that the proceeding was so entirely in hor interest that no opposition would be of- fered tn her behalf. Justice Davis Not Satisfied. Justice Davis apparently does not Uke this, for in refusing to set aside the annulment and thus practically re- marry the Morses, he said, to-day: “I am not satisfied that the plaintift (Mrs, Morse) is fitly represented on this motion. “According to the papers submitted she {s out of the country, and the counsel upon whom’ tne’ papers were served (ex-Judge Edgar L. Furs- man) disclaims any spectal authority to consent to the vacation of the judg- ment of divorce. Nor is there any proof that she has knowledge of the application. Under the circumstances I must deny this motion,” Meantime Charles F. Dodge, who ts under Indictment here for perjury in swearing he had not been served with his wife's complaint in the divorce ac- tion nor employed the head lawyer, Mor- timer Ruger. to appear for him in the acoond proceedings before a referee re- aulting in what he claimed was a fraud- ulent divorce to his wife, is dissipating royally with pockets full of money in Texas, and people are wondering who 4s supplying the funds. Divorce Was Set Anide, Dodge got that divorce sot aside last December by another secret proceeding before a referee, Justice Clarke signing the orter. As Mrs. Dodge had married Charles W. Morse after that divorce, it left her with two husbands, In her name proceedings (again in se- cret before a referee) were brought to annul her marriage to Morse on the ground that as her divorce had been declared illegal she was the wife of Dodge. ‘The exposure of this proceeding by ‘The Evening World opened up tho whole queer complication. Dodge's in- ictmont followed, and it developed that the palace-car conductor was rolling in money. A. H. Hummel has prepared in behalt of Dodge an appeal from Justine Truax’s decision reinstating Mrs. Dodge's divorce, and to-day'n decision by Justice Davis will help bim in that appeal.
