Policies Now Refused to AH Appli
cants Unless They Agree to Keep
Out of Danger Area Jinny Phila
delphia Men Sign Waivers.
Many prominent and wealthy Phlladet
phian have received a. sharp reminder
of the Lutitanla disaster In the form of
requests from accident Insurance om
panles that they sign a "war rider" to
be Attached to their accident policies.
These notices have been sent to all hold
ers of policies wherein the liability of
the company for travel acldents Is $20,000
or over, and they aro being received by
hundreds of men who aro well known In
business and financial circles In this
city, wh.o In years past frequently trav
eled through what Is now the "war
sone "
Tho "war rider" states that during the
continuance of tho war In Europe Asia
or Africa, and for three months after
the declaration of peace by the Govern
ments at war, the policies shall not cover
accident or Injury, whether fatal or non
fatal, sustained by the Insured any
where on land or sea east of meridian 10,
west of Greenwich, and west of meridian
170 west of Greenwich, which shall ro
sult wholly or partly, directly or indi
rectly, from war or riot, or from any
weapon. Implement, projectile, explosive
or contrivance of any kind used In war
fare, or whtch shall rcault from or be
caused by damage to, wreckage or loss
of any vessel by whatever cause.
MANY BIG POLICIES HERE.
Philadelphia. Is noted in Insurance cir
cles for the large number of biff accident
policies carried by its prominent citizens
The largest accident contract written by
any company Is one Riving $100,000 pro
tection against death by travel accidents'
and $50,000 protection against death by
ordinary accidents. Many big bankers,
railroad and other corporation officials,
manufacturers and ''men of affairs" in
Philadelphia carry these $100,000 contracts,
and" oil of (hem will be asked to sign a.
"war rider." There are eald to be more
of these bis policies In force In this city
than in any city of the country, not even
excepting New Tork.
WHERE RIDER APPLIES.
The "war zone" rldar. In general terms.
Is not effective going west on the Pacific
Ocean until after the Hawaiian Islands
are passed, and going east on the Atlantic
Ocean until a line Is reached which Is
about 600 miles from the Rrltlsh Isles, but
1 effective In Europe, Asia, Africa and
Australia, and on all inlands ard In the
-waters wjthln this "war zone."
Tho accldont Insurance companies were
so haM hit by the torpedoing of the
x.usnama mat they are going even
further than asking that ''war rlde'ra"
be signed by present policyholders. No
man today can takO out accldont insur
ance in the leading companies unless he
agrees In the application be signs that
he will not visit Europe, Asia or Africa
during the present war. One NewEng
land company lost over $100,000" by the
sinking of the Lutitanla, and other com
panies were proportionately hard hit.
Fblladlphlans who have received tho
requests for their signatures to th "war
riders" are quickly responding, as they
admit that the Insurance companies In
sending them out are only practicing rea
sonable business precaution.
Alfred Gwynne Vanderbllt and Elbert
Hubbard, who went tlown with the
Lutitanla, carried big accident policies
like those held by well-known Phlladel
phlans, and tho ctalms under these
policies have already been paid. The
Vanderbllt and Hubbard policies were
written some years ago and could not
havo been secured Just prior to the sail
ing of the Lusltanla,

Three Arms Companies, in Ad

Grant Eight-Hour Day.
nRIDflEPORT. Conn. July 18 -Possibilities
of a general strike that would af
fect machinists nit over the country were
considerably lees here today. Three arms
companies In addition to tho Hehilngton
concern today ahnounced the granting of
an eight-hour day, and it was freely pre
dicted that before night other companies
would follow suit. Tho fact that labor
h&s the whip hanrt-j-throiiRh the Im
mensity of war orders and the urgent
need of speed In filling them It was ad
mitted, caused the companies to quickly
capitulate.
The Manufacturers' Association has re
fused to act s a body on the matter of
granting labor'n demands, It became
known today, At a secret meeting, which
lasted four hours. It decided to leave '.e
Issue- In tho hands of Individual manu
facturers. Labor men saw in this notion a victory.
They pointed out It would be easier to
deal with one employer than with 40.
Arbitration was being suggested by
manufacturers today. It was generally
sidestepped by labor men, no they frankly
state their belief In tho capitulation of
all the manufacturers, If they only hold
on,
Reports that a Government mediator
was coming to Bridgeport to attempt set
tlement could not bo confirmed, nor could
the Federal agent be found. Samuel
Dumpers, likewise, was absent.
Companies granting tho eight-hour day
today were:
The Bryant Electric Comoanv. a branch
of tho Wcstlnghous'o Interests, employing
3000 men; tho Harvey-Bubbell Company,

McCORMACK AND MAGISTRATE SCOTT
Only Kicks and Despiteful Usage Greet McCormack Until Little
Girl Befriends Him, and Her Plea to Judge Outiveiglis
Jailer's Quotation From Scriptures.
Poor McCormack was actually kicked
from plll.tr to post. If ho lay on a shady
spot on the sidewalk he was stoned
When he crawled Into an empty box at
n. corner grocery he was kicked out. And
so he had to keep walking It was from
sheer exhaustion that he dropped at last
near Front and Glrard avenue. Then he
tried to get a drink from a horse trough,
but he couldn't reach it. The stub of his
nose was a full .Inch below the top when
he stood on his hind legs and his parched
waggling tonguo lapped the wooden side
of the trough
And It was then thai little Marlon
Green happened along. She saw that Mc
Cormack, a kindly looking Irish setter,
was struggling in vain for a drop of
water. ' His eyes spoke volumes as they
glistened plteously at Marlon. She lifted
him white he bent, his head and drank his
fill.
The dog waa more than grateful, he
licked her hands and Jumped about Joy
ously on discovering some one who didn't
kick him. And then two or three boys
gathered around, and things again looked
bluo for McCormack. Marlon had her
skipping rope under her arm She made
uttie noose and took McCormack to

Marlon patted him kindly and it took
many good-byes before she could leave
him. McCormack cried when the Iron
barred doors parted him from his little
friend and howled throughout the night.
Ho regarded the cops as a common en
emy Terrorised by the fact that most
people approached him to Inflict Injury,
McCormtck Jumped at Turnkey Kenkelln
when tho latter brought him some food.
He was finally quieted and ate with ono
suspicious eye upon his keeper
When Magistrate Scott arrived this
morning ho was told about tho prisoner,
who cried through the night and attacked
the turnkey.
So tho dog was arraigned beforo tho
Judge on tho charge of mayhem and
disorderly conduct. Somehow ho seemed
to take a liking to Judge Scolt and ran
back of the desk and licked his hand.
But tho turnkey was not moved by the
prisoner's attitude and determined to
press tho charge Looking at the dog
solemnly, he picked up the Bible and
read tho 16th chapter, 9th verse of Job
'.'He teareth me In his wrath who hnteth
me, ho gnasheth upon me with his teeth;
mine enemy aharpeneth his eyes upon
mo."
Thb dog howled mournfully, Indicating
that It was all true, and he was greatly
overawed But there was a tlngo of hopo
In his eyes as ho looked at the Judge and
pounded his tall on the floor
When asked what he had to say, the
tall thumped harder and the dog howled.
"He admits It," said the Judge finally,
"but the prisoner Is a victim of circum
stances, and as little Marlon Green was
kind to him, why shouldn't the law fol
low her example!"
Then, looking Intently at the prisoner,
tho Judge added. "I eentence you to
spend the rest of the summer with me

And McCormack got a good scrubbing to

thought tho department Would investi

been a very serious breach of neutrality.

Continued from Fnge One
berger during tho courso of tho proceed

main "status quo" was Immediately ap
proved by Mr Ryan, who declared that
the city had no Intention In nny case of
proceeding cither with tho flotation of the
J6,0OO,O0O lean or the actual construction
work until action had been taken by the
Public Service Commlslon.
Mr. Vale, however, strenuously objected
and declared that nn Injunction should be
granted so as to provide some specific
basis upon which the case might pro
ceed. Tho court refused to listen to his
plea, particularly In view of the fact that
any action at this time might be a
usurpation of the authority rightly vested

Vale finally exclaimed. "May it please the
court, I do not wish to be humiliated."

was swept aside by the court with the
