POLICE TAKE HAND AND LET LA DIES OX CAR FIRST. Men Vast Slnd in. Lln Awaiting Tarn at Famous Bridge Rush. . ' New York, Aug. 26. A new func tion has Just b:en added to the many which the New York police are called upon to perform. Their newest duty consists of teaching politeness to the male inhabitants of the city. The reform has been Introduced where it undoubtedly was mostr urgently need ed at the Manhattan' end of the old Brooklyn Bridge. The congestion at this point every evening at the rush hour Is unequalled anywhere else in the world and has aroused the anger and disgust of those who have oc casion to witness it. In the rush of the tens of thousands of home-goers for seats In the Brooklyn-bound cars men and women have been trampled upon and frequently serious injuries have occurred. . The waiting crowd .. -,v' - ' ... :i USUI V.Ci W . W.UAW they came to a stop, and in th.a mad contest women naturally had little chance to secure seats. ; Captain Bourke who has had charge of tho police at this" point determined to change this state of affairs. For the past few evenings he lias lined up his men and compelled the crowd to wait u.n.ti! tl)9 car? came to a stop before ! attempting to board 'them and then has given the women first chance to secure seats. As a result from five to ten thousand women who formerly were compelled to stand in the cars have obtained seats. The "car hogs" have been too shame-faced to make serious protests and it is believed that, a continuance of the present sys tem will result In the abolition of what has always been of the most dis graceful scenes to be observed in the city.'';,,;.'; -; M The business and financial leaders of . the country's affairs have been watching with keen and almost pain ful interest the course of the gigantic strike that for a tow days almost par alyzed British industry. When It was announced early In ' the week that aj settlement was In sight there was a feeling of great relief. The interest in the subject here was not Inspired wholly by the knowledge that any ex tended struggle would seriously af f.act international trade. In even a greater measure it was due to the feeling among well-informed men that there is grave' danger of serious labor troubls in this country and to a tsar that a serious controversy on' the other side of the Atlantic might stir up Bimilar troubles over here. Rail road managers, while not Inclined to talk on the subject for publication, admit privately that if the falling off In net earnings is not checked short ly the roads will face , the positive necessity of reducing wages, since the Interstate'Commerce .Commission has refused to permit the Increase of the rates. . On the othef? hand nobody who understands the present temper of the employes believes for an In stant that they will submit to a re duction of wages. Their claim Is that the Increased cost of living has more than absorbed the advance wrung from the roads last year and many of them are urging the formulating of further demands which It would be Impossible for the roads to grant un der existing conditions. It Is this situation more than anything else that la held by Insiders to account for the recent decline la several Import ant railroad stocks. : New Jersey which has suffered long and silently from the gibes of : the professional and , amateur humorists of the New York press on account of the number and ferocity of Its mos quttos has had a chance during tho past two months to turn the tables on Its detractors. Never In the his tory of New. York have the Inhabi tants of Manhattan suffered so great ly from the mosquito pest as during the present summer. There has been a general tendency to attribute the winged application' to an Invasion from the Jersey side of the Hudson, but a scientific Investigation has led to the conclusion that many at leaBt ,of the annoyers are home-bred, and as, 1 a result a demand has arisen for the lolling of the lakes In Central Park land In other parts of the city. One 1 of the results of the prevalence of the 1 mosquito pest has been a shattering j of the generally accepted theory that ! these insects do not fly more than '50 ! feet above ground, for they have been ; found in the upper rooms of the tall est , hotels and apartment houses as w.2ll as in structures of lesser height. Apple Show Entries In. ' Spokane, Wash., Aug. 26.
