Joseph Mitthauer was working in| the elevator shaft of the Union BuiM- ing, No. 3% Union Square, thie after- trying to fix the counter weights, He «tood on the roof of ar elevn‘or cage operated by Charles Berriscale, At the ninth floor Mitt- hauer stepped off the car to @ cross |beam near the groove in which the weights run “Tun her down slow—1 want to lis- ten to the weights,” he catied to Bar- riscale. As Barriscale was approaching the fround floor a file that Mitthauer had ®een using came through an opening in the cage roof and at the same moment Mitthauer screamed from above: “Back! . For God's eakq My arm's caught.” Barriscale ran the car up, hearing the screams of Mitthauer constantly. At the fifth floor he heard Mitthauer call, in a fainter voice: “Lm getting weak—I'll fall.” Barriscale left the car at the floor and ran up stairs. Meanwhile Joseph Lipavsky, man- ager of the Primrose Sweater Mill, the ninth floor tenant, had opened the shaft door, run a plank across the opening to the beam, crossed it at much peril to himself—for he started while the car was coming up toward him. At still greater risk he caught the injured Mitthauer, who was losing consciousness, and in some way—he hardly understands how—got him over to the floor. Mitthauer was removed to tho Bellevue Hospital, where it was said his left arm may have to be ampu- tated. He is twenty-two years old. His home ts at No. 93 Knickerbocker Avenue, Brooklyn. 4 sana ARN everything would have been smooth sailing for the men. But, as stated. despite the verdict of the women's convention, the original slate is to go through. There was no doubt at any time that Tammany wanted Miss Marbury named. That Miss Mills, nominally her opponent, was also on the slate became apparent when Miss Marbury was placed in nomination by Mins Laura Cauble, formerly Deputy Com- missioner of New York City Public Markets, and the nomination was seconded by Mrs. Julia Sanders of the Eleventh Manhattan District. Then Mra, Sanders nominated Miss Mills, and this was seconded by Miss Ella Taylor of the Bronx. But the generosity of the women leaders in extending the franchise to everybody in the hall was responsible for the plans being so horribly upset, that when Murphy was apprised of what had happened he threw up his hands in despair. The convention being held in Al- bany, it was but natural that the Albany women should be there in large numbers, After the women who were officially entitled to vote had re- corded their choices, some one said: “There are a number of ladies who have fot voted.” “Why, come and vote,” Invited Mrs, Crosby, who was presiding. And they did, When the ballots were counted it was found that Mrs. Elizabeth Col- be of Albany had 88 votes, Mis: jury Mrs. Crosby 22, and Mis: Mie 18 ‘Then it was disoovered that many women from Albany who had no credentials entitling them to a yote had voted by reason of the kind invitation extended by Mrs. Crosby, and they had voted for Mrs. Colbert, their own County Chairman, whom no one else had even suggested for a place and who had not been nomi- nated. ‘Then it was suggested that the bal- Jots be torn up. Nothing doing! Cries of “packed convention” were heard, but the vote stood, and the problem was passed along to Mr. Murphy and his advisers. Later there were reports that Mrs. Colbert had withdrawn her name. Also that the recommendation of her name would be ignored because of the irregularity. Anyway, she appears to be out of it. But Mrs. rice Margoles Paright jof New York City says she will make }@ fight on the conyention floor. She got eight votes and was fiftr on the women's list.
