Chicago— Well known club and soci
ety women dum bfounded the police de
p artm en t through interference in the
strik e of
the
g arm en t
workers.
Mounted police had charged th rea te n
ing mobs of strik e rs and made num er
ous a rre sts in three sections of the
city, only to be completely nonplussed
when m et by obdurate groups of the
elite of Chicago's women who produced
engraved calling cards at police s ta
tions in lieu of bailbonds.
It was a new experience for the po
lice and plainly confused them .
A
score of these women champions of
the g arm en t w orkers, who faced the
rioting, were taken into
custody.
They w ere im m ediately released, how
ever, when th e ir identity became
known to the police.
One of them was injured when struck
by a policem an’s club, but her name
did not become known, as she was hur
riedly placed in an autom obile and ta k
en to her home.
Most of the women of prom inence
involved in the dem onstrations were
garbed as w orking g irls, and for this
reason the police could not d istinguish
them from strik e rs until a fte r a rre sts
had been made.

said Miss Ellen V arer, one of the club
