' EVENING, PUBLIC LEPaER-IniCADELPaiA', FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1919 c. S ' i t yf- i$ n j-ft l m 1$ ZONE CARS REMAIN E Jitneys and Horse Rigs Used to Get to Both Shipyards MANY WALK TO SHIPYARDS i . , Thousands ot workmen strcnfncil along the streets lending to the ship yards in Camden this morning, crowded " into jitneys and jammed truck. There were no Gloucester cars running. Announcement by the Public Sou ice Corporntldn thnt its Gloucester cars would run as usual caused hundreds of shipyard workers to dclnj entering tin yards until the last moment. The gathered expectantly about the gates watching for the first car to mnko its j appearance, but nono came. ! Officials of the company said they had not made up their minds just whnt they ', would do today in the shlpjard'sltua- Uon. They might run cars to the yards or they might not. In the meantime, the guardsmen on duty have been given loaded revolvers In addition to their night sticks, and the Camden policemen hac been in structed to tr for a "knock out" ecrj timo they hit an agitator. The re serve militiamen declare they nrc sick of riot duty, and it's "gloes off" now if anybody starts nnj thing. Tubllc Won't Hide on Cars Cars or no enrs, the public is walk ing or using jltnejs. The cars thnt nre being operated nre runping virtunllj empty, and the loss in fnres to the company is thousands of dollars daily. At Audubon enrh todiiy violent at tacks on the cars of the Public Sen ice Corporation were resumed. Volleys of stones were hurled nt ti al leys passing through that town. The sides of the cars were dented mid splin tered bv the jugged mlsllei. Foremen and departmental heads of the New York Shipbuilding Compnnj held a meeting today and pledgul them selves to protect trolley compnnj prop erty and help maintain order if the compnnj enrrics out Its promise to run cars to the shipjards tomorrow. They expressed the thought, however, that none of the shipworkers will ride in the cars. Many of the foremen mid . department heads were resentful of the statement given out bj one of the com pany heads in which lie referred to the workers as "hoodlums nnd slackers." Uarry Humphreys, manager of the service department, has arranged with the Philadelphia and Heading Itailwaj for special trains to carry the workers to and from work. Vehicles which carried the men to work today ran the gamut between fic ton motortrucks nnd old cairiagcs drawn by gray mules. It was at Audubon lat night thnt at tacks were made on four cars. Several shots were fired and bricks and rocks smashed windows nnd peppered the sides with dents. One conductor was seized and handled roughly. Ills zone fare tickets were taken from him nnd torn to bits. As the workers in the New York ship yards trudged toward the trolley loop there they set up jeers at the sight of the blackened ruins of the trolley (terminal. This terminal, known to the men ns the "bull pen," was burned early last evening after three previous efforts had failed. Crowds rtusli Police The early attempts to burn "the ter minal were frustrated by police, but when the closing whistles blew jester day crowds of men rushed the structure, brushed the police aside and applied blazing, oll-soakel rags. Shipyard firemen turned streams on the Are, but their hose burst under the pressure. They tried to beat out the flames, but the headway gained was too great. The approaches to the New York hhipyard this morning were filled with a conglomeration of vehicles. Many of the workers walked, but jltnejs wire running full-blast. Uieyclcs were pressed into service by some and horse drawn vehicles rolled along slowly through the mass of walking men. The Public Service Corporation ran tars out of the Camden terminals, but ' near the end of the first zone the trolleys switched to interurbnn lines, and ran to Clementon, Audubon and other towns. Disorder Area Spreads The gradual spreading of the nrec of disorder presented a serious aspect of the situation faced by the police and the force of deputy sheriffs and militia guards. When the disorder began last Mon day, it was confined to the shimnrd en- " Trances. But the activities spread until cars were attacked nt many points along the llpe, even in outlying sections. One reason advanced for the disturb ances, other than dissatisfaction with the zone fares, is the alleged presence of radical Socialists among the ship workers. According to the police, radical agi tators harangued flic workers before attacks were made on the cars. Police today bad orders to arrest any one who tried to arouse the crowds.
