ARMED GUARDS TO GIVE BATTLE T0 STARVING STRIKERS Threats of the Violent Kind. ) Follow the Killing of a | Marine Worker. | IDLE MEN ARE HUNGRY. Police, Fearing Grave Rioting, Throng Water Front—More Men Are Quitting Work. Special armed guards and addittonal forces of policemen were posted at all the coastwise steamship companies’ piers to-day in fear of further riotous outbreaks both in Manhattan and Brooklyn. The killing of a striker last night | as inflamed the passions of the |» Spaniar vho compose the Mari Firemen’s Union and threats of the Most violent kind were made to-day wiieréver the strikers gathered. Secro- tary Vidall of the union continued to urge the men on to desperate measures, Bcores of the strikers are sald to be hungry and penniless, — Reports ° fipread along the water front that vera strikers had swooned from hunger. AN this has given ‘the situation an alarming turn and while the officers of the steamship companies declare that the strike is ® failure, at the same time they are taking extra precautions to protect their property and cope with violence. ‘The firemen’s union and the seamen’s union are in open strife, despite the fact that th ders of both unions declare they will not yield in their fight until all of their demands are granted. LONGSHOREMEN BEGIN TO . WALK OUT. ‘The efforts of the strikers to call out the longshoremen, which met with such signal failure last week, was rewarded to-day when twenty-three of a force of three hundred men employed by the Lehigh Valley Raflroad walked out. ‘The strikers say they have promises that several hundred more longshor men will join the strike this afternoon, ‘The officers of the marine firemen’s/ union obteined @ permit to-day to pa- rade at the noon hour along West ‘street. ‘The strikers drew recruits from Brooklyn and Hoboken and were able to marshal 1,200 men in line. Inspec- tor John Daly had 150 policemen on hand as an escort. Carrying banners and placerds, the men marched from their headquarters on West street down to the Battery. It was a quiet, orderly procession and there was no sort of noisy demonstration. There were many disorderly outbreaks last night !n both Manhattan and Brooklyn. The trouble in Manhattan extended from the Battery to Cilnton street. MANY SHOTS FIRED AT PO- ‘LICEMEN. In Manhattan the police of the Oak street, Old Slip and Delancey street | stations had to fight a mob of striking firemen and their sympathizers, who | fired shots at the policemen while thoir frtends rained bottles and bricks from the housetops. ‘The firing of the strikers ceased only when the police threatened to shoot to hit. Fully fifty shots had been fired and Jose Palmiera, a striking marine fire- maa, was found shot in the head. He Gied later in the Volunteer Hospital, ‘The trouble started about 8 o'clock when a dozen strike breakers in char, gf two policemen left pier 28 in the Bast River, where there had been a strike of Jongehoremen in the course of the day. juddenly there were the sounds of an altercation in @ sailors’ boarding house at No. Us Roosevelt street. Ti altercation started, it {s said, when @ Greek who was working on ons ‘of the ships went into the saloon on the first floor and was approached by @ etriking Spaniard. The men came out of the place fighting. Then, according to the police, the Greek ran into another saloon, grabbed @ Bottle, ran out and hurled it at hie antagoniat's head. The Spaniard drew a revolver and began to shoot. Men suddenly appeared on the tops of the houses and began to shoot. Others took their positions at windows and hurled missiles at the police. ‘The reserves finally quelled the Aght- ing after tt had continued intermittently for two hours, Thirty-seven prisoners were taken on suspicion. INFURIATED STRIKER SHOOTS SEVERAL MEN. The trouble in Brooklyn ocourred about the same time es that in Man- hattan, Alexander Sabasnno of No. Conover street, who was a fireman on the steamer Montcisea on her arrival at ‘the Gouth Brooklyn docks, aays Ancillo at the foot of Hamilton ave- to get him to strike. Gon- zales declares that Sabaznno promptly fired a shot at him, hitting him in the left leg. Policeman Hanley was at Imlay street and Hamilton avenue, in the Red Hook district, when the sound of a shot made him whirl about in time to see Sabasnno directly acroas the street from him with iis revolver in his, hand, Hanley had taken but two or three steps when ne | went down with a bullet through his raght lung and’one insthe log, Two blocks up Imlay street PoMceman Williams ran for Sabaznno, who had started, for Bowne street. Willams fired ce at thim, Sabaznno turned and sent a bullet Into Williams's right leg. As the polleeman fell he fired a second bullet into Lis left shoulder ‘Poweman William J. MoMillen had in the mean time taken up the chase ‘trom which Willams had been compelled to retire, and when. Sabaznno backed up against @ lumber pile MoMillen closed in on him, Once more the Spaniard used his revolver, the bullet grazing the policeman's right ear.

For business she wears a perfectly plain white rep shirt waist sult, oxfords with sensible heels, Buster Brown” collar, lsle hose, black sailor hat and a switch which she could not do without, for her hair barely reaches below her neck; she wears her hajr parted and never a stray lock hangs over her e.

The young men continue to denounce the dress, man- ners and bearing of the girls of to day. Replying, the young women de clare that whatever their errors of taste, the young men encourage them ‘by evincing a marked preference for the girl who paints her face, colors her lips and wears scant and provece- tive gowns. There seems to be a re markable unanimity of belief, how- ever, that the modern young girl is loudly dressed and that she resorts to the rouge box and the lip stick to Produce her questionable attractions. Now, young men insist that these so-called attractions don’t attract. The young women reply that their critics 6 hypocrites and that the girl Wears quiet and modest clothes sees CAUSE OF LOWERED STAND. AROS OF MODERN GIRLS. Of course, I know the young women who read this letter will say: Gay. ‘This stems tv be the theory of a young married woman in Denver, Colorado, who contributes some interesting views to the dress-paint-and-powder disous- sion, She wnites: Dear Madam—Has no one sug- @ested the idea of the mothers of of boys inetilling inte their minds to seek in girls the qualities so superior to good looks and fine and suggestive clothing?

WIFE'S CONFESSION IN FUNK SUIT MAY HIT SOME BIG MEN Harvester Trust Manager Links Alienation Action With the Lorimer Case. CHICAGO, July %—Mra, Jonephine Henning, wife ‘of the man who sued Clarence N. Funk, manager of the In- ternational Harvester Company, oharg- ing alleniation of his wife's affections, arrived in Chicago to-day from New York, with Assistant State's Attorney Thomas Marshall. She was taken at once to the office of State's Attorney Wayman. It wae understood that she waa given the opportunity of confessing her part in the alleged plot and testify ing againat Mies Aileen Heppner, whose trial on the oharge of perjury was echeduled to begin to-day, or submit to arrest on & charge of conspiracy in con- nection with the charges againet Funk, whieh were proven groundless. State'eAttorney Wayman to-day stated that Mrs, Henning had admitted that the allegations made against Clarence 8. Funk, in the suit for damages for al- leged alfenation of her affections, were falve. “Mire. Honning.” said Wayman, “has confessed that the allegations against Mr. Funk wero false and that she never knew Mr. Funk.’ Afleen Heppner testified in Henning’s $2,000 alienation sult against Frank Funk that she saw Funk and Mre, Hen- ning enter a room in a Chicago hotel together, Other witnesses named by ‘Miss Heppner a» having been: present ‘at the time, denied having been in the hotel or having dined with Miss Hepner on the evening which ehe named.

What “Banker” says is per- fectly true, clothes are only & matter of usage, and their omis- sion or partial omission merely « matter of taste.

In my business I have occasion to meet many people daily, both the young girl of ten and the woman of sixty, so my de- ductions have be made at first hand. We will ve all prudish ideas aside for a moment. We all know that a girl has @ body. We know that from the top of her shoes to the top of her waist there must be some substance. She does not dwindle away to nothing.
