ee k HAS ACTIVE SUPPORT. , @ermen of the City of New York as ALDERMEN TO ACT ON SPECULATORS CASE TO-MORROW Evening World’s Ordinance Will Be Presented by Theatrical Managers. Proposed Law Simply Wipes Street Ticket Sellers Out of Existence. The Evening World's fight on the sidewalk ticket speculators will be taken into the Board of Aldermen at their meeting to-morrow, and It now only femains to be seen if the feelings of the theatregoers of this city, which have been so emphatically expressed lately, will have the desired weight with the governing body of New York. ‘The Evening World's ordinance, which will be presented by Alderman Frank Dowling, is as follows: “An ordinance tc repeal those parte of Title 2, Chapter 7 of Part 1 of the! Code of Ordinances of the City of New | York relating particularly to ‘Ticket Speculators.’ "Be it ordained by the Board of Al- follows; “Bection 1—Line 14 of Beotion 98 of Article 2 of Title 2 of Chapter 7 of Part | 1 of the Code of Ordinances of the City | of New York, reading as follows, ‘For @ach ticket speculator—$60,’ is hereby ennulled, rescinded and repealed. | “Section 2—Sections 349 and 360, being | subdivision 9 of Article 3 of Title 2 of Chapter 7 of Part 1 of the Code of Ondi- | nances of the Clty of New York entitled ‘Tioket Speculators,’ Is hereby annulled, rescinded and repealed. GREEN MAN RUNS ELEVATOR; SIA MEN INIURED Operator Absent, An Employe of Clothing Factory Unuer- took the Job ‘A freight elevator dropped five stortes at 2 o'clock this afternoon tm the six- story manufacturing bullding at No, @ Elizabeth street. men on it at the time and six of them were seriously furt, Those injured were: COHEN, MORRIS, of No, %4 Broome Street; right leg fractured. DHKRSHATZ, MAX, of No, 482 Sec- ond street; severe contusions and shock, FBLDDR, MAX, of No, 8 Avenue D.; cut and bruised about face and head. PERRY, TONY, of No. 66 Elizabeth Street; nose broken, cut and brutsed. POLLOK, JOHN; wrists cut and con- tusions, SCHODNBERG, MORRIS, of No. # Greenwic.. street; severe contusions, fractured left leg. The men were all employed in the clothing factory of Cohen & Levy, on the top floor of the building. When they returned from luncheon they found that Ike Swimmer, the regular operator of the elevator, was missing. Rather than walk Schoenberg volunteered to run the lift, It shot up without acol- dent till It reached the fifth floor. Then it stopped. The amateur operator jerked the controlling lever, and imme- diately it started down at great speed. The men on it lost thelr heads and started to jump as they passed the various floors on their way down. Schoenberg jumped off on the third floor and rolled down a stalr@ay to the first. His leg was broken, Te others received their injuries as they piled out on the top of one another There were eleven “Section 3~Thts ordinance shall take | effect immediately.” ‘There will be a representation of thea- tre managers, headed by Marc Klaw, Daniel Frohman and Charles Burnham, | at the meeting, and it will be demon- strated to the Board of Aldermen that ‘Tne Evening World's fight on the an- noying, irresponsible sidewalk pests has | not only the ardent support of the peo- | ple, but the active support of the onlef Men in the theatrical business—men whose Investmenis in theatrical prop- | erty in New York amount to millions of | dollars, It will be readily seen from the or- | dinance that there is no beating about the bush in the manner in which the imatter is placed before the Aldermen. The ordinance sii wiping out of e tlee of sidewalk ‘There seems good reason to predict that the bill will pass, and to-day the managers and the men who have worked in the crusade are very hope- fu} of success. Tf any alderman is in doubt as to the necessity of repealing the ticket specu- lator ordinance he need only go to the Belasco Theatre or the Hippodrome any night or to the Polo Grounds any day.
