Before the arrival of the Mayor the young men thronged the corridors, discussed thelr griev- ances excitedly and for a time made thomselves objectionable, “Lot's mob the Mayor's office!" clared one of the leaders, Lieut. Kennel, down at the other end of the corridor, heard the threat and got busy. Patrolman Fritz of the Mayor's personal staff, Acting City Hall Custodian Rooney, Sergeants-at- Arma Hrehm and Horbacher and three men from the Traffic Squad formed a flying wedge and the men were forced down the steps to the City Hall Plaza, “If you fellows want to see tho Mayor,” said Kennel, “you had better have a committee represent you." William J, Doherty of No. 405 West Fiftteth street and Harry Kline, who suid he lived at No, 214 Weat street, and admitted he was @ mem- ber of the I. W. W., were picked as the representatives of the gathering. “We were peacefully waiting for work,” said Doherty, “when the po- lice reserves came around and hustled us out on the street. They clubbed and manhandled us shamefully.” Kline told @ similar story. An entirely different version of the rumpus at the employment agency came from those in charge there, Be. tween 8 o'clock this morning and noon, it was explained, between 600 ‘and 800 men applied for work.

Uptown conditions were but little better. The fire peril of the city caused by the storm became so acute Street Cleaning Commissioner Fetherston and Fire Commissioner ron decided that their two departments should co-operate to mike % Sat sible for fire apparatus to move with some freedom. Street cleaners were directed to aid firemen in digging out covered by snowdrifts and by foolish sidewalk cleaners. Fire D suowploughs were sent, fully equipped, to all fire houses, to be firemen for the cleaning of streets which might be used by answering alarms. This unprecedented action was taken after Kenlon reported to Mr, Adamson that many fire companies were se z bound that they could not possibly get two blocks from their stations, The street cleaners, emergency men and contractors’ gangs, the ; thousand more shovellers hired by the street car companies, the employed by hotel, theatre and restaurant owners and by the Bridge partment, had cleared away only little patches of Saturday’s snow to-day’s fell upon them.
