Dr. Joh Grant Lyman, on trial the United States Distric aNleged defrauding of his clients by use of the ovmils, was no ordinary promoter. In, the days when they were “puttingsthem over” in Court for Goldfield, the furs and soft \speeoh, but he was! learning the game. T the few shért months that he masqueraded in Wall Street under the name of John H. Putnam the Gov- ernment claims titat he stole several hundred thousand dollars, He did not get any of the money of the wolves of Wall Street. According to the Gov- érnment’s contention he sheared the Jambs, but did it im @ manner differ- ent from the methods employed hy Two of his ft vie- the wolves.

They {n turn the end of next | AS “OPEN SHOPS” | nounced | however, that the will invite the former employees to come back, by means of hand@bilis, which will be printed in Yiddish, Italian and English. So fixed is the association in its views of what is right and wrong in the controversy, so absolutely sure is it of the absolute justice of its con- tentions, that it does not propore to offer the slightest inducement to its '\former employees to return to their jobs. After the distribution yesterday of the booklet of facts nobody came for- ward as a mediator. In fact, E. J. Wile, President of the association, told a reporter for the Evening World that his fellow manufacturers, while not wholly spurning bona fide offers, woukl “never surrender the right to »| be the absolute owners and directors of their property,” that they could never again avcept the union's ideas of the principle of hiring and dis- charging or of Morris Hillquit'’s inter- pretations of a union man. OLD HANDS FAILING, THEY'LL HIRE OTHERS. ‘There is, then, to be no palliative of any description.

A reasonable .|time will ve given the experiment.

But the union claims {t is representing the idea of all its membors in standing behind the definitions advanced by its counsel, Morris Hillquit. Its present attitude ts “no surrender.’ Discussing the plang for reopening, Mr. Wile, President of the association, said to a reporter for The Evening World: “We stand exactly where we stood at the time the 1915 agreement was violated. We don't propose to budge ene foot away from our origi tention. Personally, I feel that number of our employees will ret The union ia not right. dealing with a union that to its agreements.

Mrs. George Osur, known for seve- ral years as “the girl who always rings the fire alarm,” is dead at her home in Clifton, N. J. She had been to Paterson on a shopping trip yes- terday and just after reaching her home collapsed, presumably from heart disease. Mrs, Osur, who was only twenty- two years old, had lived since child- hood adjoining the lot in which the borough officials had rigged the stecl tire of a locomotive wheel which served as a fire signal to alarm the Whenever there was a firo a telephone message would be sent to Mrs, Osur's home and she would run to the lot, seize a heavy sledge ham- mer and beat the great gong. This was heard throughout the town and the people would hurry to the scene of the fire. She developed a system of signals, a certain series of taps indicating the location of the fire. She formerly was Miss Mabel Pooley and was a graduate of the Passaic High School fsa ssn BELMONT ENTRIES.

The “news” of a knife being hurled at th former President was taken in good Dit faith by certain outside newspaper correspondents and was telegraphed broadcast. Ernest ©. Shell, the member of the American Legion who stood sponsor for the entire incident, was being sought by the police to-day. Patrolman George Stivera said to- day that Shell stooped forward while the parade was near Thirteenth } 5; Street and Grand Avenue and ap- peared to pick up a amall, cheap knife from the minning board of Col. Roose- velt’s car. The blade was closed. “'The man who threw that ought to be arreated,’ Shell said, but I looked around and couldn't eee any one to arrest—juat everybody cheering for Roosevelt,” the patrolman reiated. Ohief Hammil branded the whole affair as absurd. He said that three Weeks ago he was approached to sanc- tion for the news fakers an attempted assassination of Billy Sunday. —_— > FELONIOUS ASSAULT ONLY.
