The flret etreet disorder occurred about
a, m. Calla for police came In rnpld sue
eeeelon thereafter and by 10U0 oclock tour
teen arrests had been mnd.
Tho moat serious riot occurred at Fourth
avenue and Twenty-third street, when a
' crowd numbering GOO blocked the track and
refused to let a surface car proceed. At a
akrnal from the mob'i leader the car was
stormed and the motormnn, conductor and
two other traction employes drained to the
street.
I'ollee reserves were rushed to the scene
by automobile and the mob was dispersed
after four arrests had been made.
"FIGHT TO THE FINISH"
That the strike would be a fight to the
finish was the declaration made by the
leaders on both sides today. The traction
officials announced that they would attend
the meeting which the Public Bervlce Com.
million had called, but emphatically as
serted that they would reject the proposal
et arbitration upon which the commission
had nflreed as a means ot terminating the
struggle.
"We have all the best of It," said one
traction chief. "Why should we arbitrate
when we have won the strike It was
brought on by the union, and the company
sees no reason why It should In any way
even appear to admit responsibility for a
condition tor which It was In no way liable."
MAYOR'S PLAN TO END STRIKE
Drastic steps to end the strike wero
considered by Mayor Mltchet this nfter
ftboh, following the flat refusal of the Inter
borough company to accept the peace truoe
and arbitration plan proposed by the com
mission. First, tho Mayor la considering a request
en Governor Whitman for a special session
ef the Legislature to pass legislation to
end the strike. The second step Is tp have
the Board ot Estimate grant an Immediate
franchise to tho New York Motorbus Com
pany to run Its motorbusses along streets
paralleling the railway lines now tied up,
by strikes. Application for such a fran
chise was made n year ago.
The labor leaders wero as defiant as the
traction officials and asserted they would
make no concessions at the commission's
meeting.
"W are nrhtlnir for our life the rlcht
to organise," said Hugh Frayne, Btate or-
gantier of the American Federation qf
Jjibor. "We will not surrender anything
.that might Jeopardlto that right"
1 The situation on this, the sixth day ot
the strike, semed fraught with even
greater menace than at any previous time.
Charging that the Interborough officials
had failed to use "orderly methods" "In
' their efforts to break the strike, the strik
ers declared that "force must be met with
force."
This Implied threat caused fear to arise
that there would bo even greater violence
than yesterday, when Chief Inspector
Kchmtttberger ordered the police to use
their revolvers In case of attacks upon
traction property or employes.
Service on the subway and elevated
lines was practically normal today, but
there was no change In the condition of
paralysis on the surface lines.
The -Interborouifh has rejected the pro
posal of the Publlo Service Commission
that the traction strike on the elevated and
subway lines be submitted to arbitration.
The New York Railways Company, con-i
trolling the surface lines, nlso refused to
accept arbitration.
The two compahles also served notice on'
tho commission, that hereafter no confer
ences would bo held with officers, agents
of members of the Amalgamated Associ
ation ot Steel and niectrlo Workers' em
ployes. Tho plana of the commission to effect
peace, having failed, other methods were'
taken under consideration and It was re
ported that Mayor Mltchel would ask Gov
ernor Whitman to call a special session Qf
the Legislature to pass a law making ar
bitration compulsory In all labor disputes.
CARDS RALLY
IN THE SIXTH
MATINEE GIRL IS HOME RENEWING
' TRIUMPHS IN THIS FAMILIAR FIELD
Lends a Happy Amospher6 to the Shopping Parade,
Brightens Up the Leading Man and tho Audience, and
Puts Money in the Pockets of the Business Man
Just Ilka the sun and September and the
advance autumn leaves the Matinee Girl Is
with us again.
With all her old radiance abe appeared
this afternoon fresh from vacation con
quests an, ready to charm with Impersonal
amlte those who chanced a glance fct her
laughing eyes.
Through the peachblow color one could
detect the clinging tan from scenes of
Victory on beach and mountain, nut It will
fade away gradually Just like the fugitive
memories of broad-shouldered youths, who
swam and rode and danced and canood
with this selfsame girl; for now She floats
among the throng of ever changing color
which drifts from shop to shop and thence
to the feet of the matinee Idol at the piny
And It's this girl who alternates feigned
Indlfferenco with sunny smiles, who paves
the way for woman's whims of wear. It Is
worse than folly for humble man to tell
what this dainty, diaphanous, not to say
decollete, damsel Is clad In
Ths sheen of her filmy gownt glistens
like a glacier near an Alpine village. The
colors of the world mingle In harmonious
confusion about this queen of the matinees,
and yet, as she draws near, you rcillze that
It's all dus to a simple gown of white
which surmounts many strata of glim
mering lingerie.
And despite the uksse of the style oars,
the skirts continue to have n skyward trend.
They seem to bo farther from the sidewalk
than ever before, and a the clocks on
hosiery nro morel gorgeous than ever. It
leads ono (o believe that they 'will not
be made In tain.
Up and down Ilroad street with a' flank
movement on Chestnut streot was the route
of this march of beauty. Slto came early
In order to have n. glimpse at the scene of
her former triumphs. She lunched nmld
ths busy buss of beauty, and then, with
her bonbons, carefully concealed, she
proceeded to the playhouse to smile and
sympathies with the -victims of the author
until tho last act righted everything again.
Then with a happy sigh (for there are
happy sighs for girls) she will gc, home to
dine with Millie and Ruth, who came with
her from the matinee
Of course, the mntlnee boys wero out.
Many sat besldo tho fair one whom they
had rowed on the silvery lake of the
mountain.
Ono must 'remember that the matinee
girl Is a practical Institution. If her
whims, her smiles, her gowns and her ex
travogance which push the prosperity wheel.

U. S. TO PROBE COST '
OF MILKPRODUCTION
Inquiry Will Be Made Into
Cause of Threatened Increase
in Price
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13. A national
Inquiry into tho cost of producing milk
and the Justification for tho threatened In
crease In prices was announced today by
the Agriculture Department.
Tho first formal action will be taken to
morrow when milk producers from seeral
eastern States wilt confer with department
Afllclnls. W. J. Spnirhah, Of the omce of
Farm Management; U. H. JUwl, chief of
tho dairy "division, nnd Department Solicit
or Frank d. Kaffey win, b In charge of tho
Go eminent effort.
Virtually the probe-wlU bo undertaken as
nn answer to tho, following proposition re
ceived from mlllc producers all oer the
country nnd especially from Pennsylvania,
New York, New England and tho region
about Chicago:
We don't know Just what It la costing
us to produce milk, but wo do know
wo aro getting poorer, so we want
to know whether we aro getting enough
money for our product.
This Is the tenor of letters that have been
pouring Into tho department for months.
The letters aro chiefly from milk producers
In territory contlnguous to cities of 25,000
and up.
Chief Splllman believes there nre two
basic causes. One Is a shortage of, nnd
therefore higher prices for, feed. Tho other
Is too much regulation by city authorities.

A sale of health certificates either coun
terfeit or real, In New Jersey, was revealed
to tho New Jersoy authorities today by
Dr. Samuel O. Dixon, Commlssloneri&if
Health of Pennsylvania, who pointed out
the danger of such a practice during tho
Infantile paralysis epidemic. An Investi
gation was begun at once by Dr. 'J. II.
Prlco, New Jersey Health Commissioner.
Doctor Dixon told Doctor Prjce over the
long-dlstanco telephone that certificates
could be purchased In a certain New Jersey
town for ten and twenty-five cents. Tho
slips were worded correctly nnd signed by
a person who styled himself nn agent of
the New Jersey Board of Health.
"Untold danger, not only for New Jersey,
but for Pennsylvania, lies In such r pro
cedure," said Doctor Dixon. "Quarantine"
laws become Useless and precautions fu
tile." Doctor Dixon assailed the "Invasion" of
Pennsylvania by Federal health oinccrs,
which ho termed an Infringement on State
rights.
"Wo understood that no action .would be
taken, following our rejection of the Federal
Government's proposal, until wo had another
meeting tomorrow," he said. "In spite of
thnt, a handful of Inspectors has begun to
duplicate our work at a few points. It Is
feeble effort, which can only result In
Inconvenience and In a false sense ot
security."
The city health authorities will support
Doctor Dixon In his stand, Director Krusen,
or the Department of Public Health and
Charities, said this afternoon.
