FARMERS HOLDING
BACK MORE MILK
Not More Than One-Fourth of
New York's Daily Supply
Shipped In
New York. Oct. 3. The Xew York
I State farmers tightened their grip on
the milk supply to-day and caused a
further reduction in the quantity sup
plied to this city. The farmers are
holding back the product of their
x dairies to compel the big distributors
here to pay higher prices.
The milk war which originated with
the organization of the Dairymen s
League has spread throughout the
State. Reports from all parts of New
York tell of thousands of gallons of
milk spilled in combats between the
dairvmen and the employes of the
distributors, the picketing of cross
roads in dairy districts, farmers held
up and beaten, and the establishment
of cheese manufactories to dispose of
the surplus resulting from the with
holding of Xew York city's supply.
Use Force to Hold Milk
Twenty deputies have been sworn in
In Duchess county to prevent raids
of farmers upon their neighbors to
compH them to hold back their pro
duct. This followed an attack of one
man who was severely beaten while
the deputy sheriff who accompanied
him w-as held a prisoner, tied to a tree.
Farmers are reported to be patrolling
the roads in several counties up-State
seizing milk and dumping it. In some
places the farmers are contributing
funds to build co-operative cream
eries.
John J. Dillon, the State Commis
sioner of Foods and Markets who
represents the league of farms, esti
mates that not more than 25 per cent
of the normal amount of milk was
shipped into Xew York City for use
to-day. City distributors claimed they
had received about sixty per cent of
the 2.500.000 gallons required daily.
Thus far the shortage has not affected
the city hospitals.

tendent of parks, incidentally, will be
the sufferer to the extent of $97.50.
The Park Shortage
For a couple of weeks Park Com
missioner Gross has been trying to get
some additional funds to keep the
parks a-going: he offered an ordinance
a couple of weeks ago. which appro
priated $2,736.72. Council refused to
act however, until Mr. Gross explained
in detail what he wanted with the
funds, why he wanted them, what he
did with his money and a few other
more or less pertinent questions. So
at the last meeting Mr. Gross came
Into Council with a detailed statement
of the departmental needs; the total
called for an expenditure of 54.233.
Commissioner Bowman found fault
■with it and Mr. Gross had action
postponed until to-day.
Mr. Gross at the time threatened to
get peevish about it but the matter
was smoothed over by Mr. Lynch who
thought the hitch could be straight
ened out when the members got to
gether informally. Xewspaper re
porters had been figuring on a story
of another old-fashioned "three-to

but this much passed between Messrs.
Gross and Bowman.
Mr. Gross questioned the public
safety commissioner's right to tread
upon the park department preserves.
"My duty as a Councilman requires
me to give the proper service to the
people as the head of my own depart
ment, but also, as a Councilman, to
see that the money in other depart
ments is not improperly or extrava
gantly expended." was Mr. Bowman's
reply, according to Mr. Gross.
"A Bis Man"
"Well, to my mind." promptly re
turned Mr. Gross, "the man who as
sumes to run the whole city must be a
pretty big man!"
The give and take between Messrs.
Bowman and Gorgas reached the high
point, however, when the question of
the salary of Mr. Forrer was re
ferred to.
According to the budget, the assist
ant superintendent receives $1,500 an
nually. He did not. however, assume
his duties until February 1. Since
then his $1,500 salary, instead of be
ing distributed over the year in in
stalments of $125 per month, has been
paid in instalments of $137.50. And
after the smoke had cleared away
Commissioner Gorgas declared that the
$37.50 which Forrer's salary account
had been overdrawn will have to be
made up. If this Is lopped from his
present month's salary. Sir. Forrer
will net the difference between $125
and $97.50 —or $27.50.
"In the first place." explained Mr.
Gross to-day, "this was my mistake.
I supposed that the $1,500 salary was
for the year and that the sum could
be paid in the year.
"Mr. Bowmau raised the point that
the ordinance creating Mr. Forrer's
place, provided that the salary should
be _paid in monthly instalments of
$125. So instead of paying Mr. Forrer
51.375 for the eleven months of his
service. I expected to pay him the
51,500 in eleven monthly instalments,
dividing the balance of $125 into ten
portions. In other words, Mr. Forrer
would get $137.50 each month."
Mr. Goreas incidentally blamed his
assistant. Marion Verbeke, for failing
10 acquaint him of the error. Sir.
Gorgas in turn is blanr vby Mr. Gross
for his action to-day . \ withdrawing
the additional park appr priation ordi
nance.
"I was under the Impression that
this money could be had." declared
Mr. Gross to-day. "and Mr. Gorgas
failed to acquaint me differently. Xow
I find that the money is not available
and I must wait until a little more
money accumulates before I can hope
to get what is needed to prevent us
from shutting down all work on the
park sytsem."

E. S. Meals, the appointment of J. Ed

IN PEACE OF WORLD

ing and watching to see whether Am
erica would, in view of the immense
interests at stake, depart from her
old policy of complete isolation and
bear her part in the effort for se
curing a permanent alliance for peace.
An influential league for that purpose
has already been formed there and
now two momentous events have
happened, on which I dwell because
they have been little noticed here.
Hughes Is For Scheme
"President Wilson delivered four
months ago a powerful and luminous
speech, in which he announced that
the United States could not stand aloof
from a movement in which the
highest interests of manhood were
concerned and that he felt sure the
people of the L'nited States were pre
pared to join in any feasible scheme
for the prevention in the future wars.
"Two months ago Charles E.
Hughes, in accepting the nomination
as candidate for the presidency by the |
Republican party, declared with no
less force and no less sincerity that he
was convinced the time had come to
unite with European countries in a
weil-considered scheme for applying l
methods of arbitration and concilia- '
tion to securing general and perman
ent peace in the world.
"Thus the heads of two great
American parties, distinguished men !
and the official exponents of American '
opinion, have promised the co-opera
tion of their nation in this project
one of great difficulty, no doubt, but
also of supreme importance.
Pleads For End of All War
"Our people and the statesmen who
lead our people could have no greater
encouragement to address themselves
when the time comes, to this enter
prise, which they have already pro
nounced to be necessary. I ask your
help to bring the matter before the
people and to show them how much
we and every nation have to gain by
removing the terror and the danger of
war, which so long has hung like a
i black cloud over Europe. The
ihurches could do no more truly Chris
j tian work.
[ "Let not this war have been fought
!in vain: Let us search for and try
, lo put into practice some scheme for
j reducing and if possible, at least for
I ending this oldest and most terrible
I scourge of mankind."
Lord Bryce said the country was
i virtually unanimous in holding that
| the war must be prosecuted to victory
!so complete as to open the prospect
| jf an enduring peace and added:
Churches Must Help
"On the terms of that treaty the
j people will insist and ought to in
; sist on expressing their opinion and
.the churches must do their part in
| helping to 'orm it."
He declared that the precepts of
I Christianity coincide with those of
I political wisdom and that the churches
| should work tor national unity and
i feeling between the classes,
j "Let us avoid, let us repress the
I spirit of hatred," he said. "We are
I justly indignant at the war the enemy
I powers have waged. We trust that
our victory will warn the world that
such methods must never be resorted
to again and that those guilty of them
will be punished. But is it wise to
talk of banning a whole people for
all time to come? The German peo
ple are under a harsh and tyran
j nous rule, which has not only de-
I ceived, and misled them, but silences
and protests—and there are those who
wish to protest—against its crimes.
Some day we hope they will over
throw it, when they have learned the
truth.
Cannot Hate Forever
"To indulge in revenge will be to
j sow the seeds of future wars. Na
tions cannot hate one another forever,
and the sooner they cease to do so
the better for all of them. We must
take all proper steps to defend our
selves from any dancers that might

arise, if after the war the enemy
countries were to resume an insidious
hostility. ' That is at present no more
than a possibility which may never
arise.
"But the talk we now are about
starting after peace has been con
cluded. a new war of trade to follow
the war of arms has immense capac
ities for mischief. Such a trade war
would prolong, would embitter afresh
those hatreds that ought to be allow
ed to die and it assumes a continu
ance of these very things from which
we expect our victory to deliver us
once for all.
'Our main purpose will have failed
if we do not secure a durable peace.
To prolong hatreds would increase
suspicion, would lead in time to a re
currence of those very calamities
from which we are suffering. If severe
terms have to be imposed, let that be
done only so far as is necessary for
securing future peace, not in a vin
dictive spirit, which, in perpetuating
hatreds, would end by relighting the
flames of war."
Lord Bryce advocated that the
principles of nationality be respected

cases of Poland, the Southern Slavs.
Transylvania and Armenia.

Widow Seeking Love Balm
Is Laughed Gut of Court
Baltimore, Md., Oct. 3. —Mrs. Ma
tilda Xewcomb, the widow of 58 years
who sued James Smith, wealthy wid
ower, aged 72, for $20,000 for breach
of promise, was yesterday denied the
financial balm she sought by the jury
giving a verdict for the aged defend
ant.
During the more than two hours of
argument, the jury was not infre
quently thrown into paroxysms of
latghter by the vivid descriptions of
the alleged lovemaking of the couple.
State Senator William J. Ogdcn, one
of the defendant's counsel, caused
much merriment when, after demon
strating how Mr. Smith sat down, plac
ing his hands on his knees as he did
so. he asked the jury whether it re
garded that as an invitation.
"She wants you to believe," said Mr.
Ogden, referring to Mrs. Xeweomb's
testimony that her alleged tiance liad
Invited her to sit on his lap, "that she
looked through his eyes into his soul
and heard a voice say: 'Come on.
Tillie. and sit on Jimmy's knees.' "
"Tillle" and "Jimmy" were the
names the couple called each other. It
was testified.
Mr. Ogden claimed the evidence
showed it was Mrs. Newcomb who di
rected the courtship from the begin
ning.
"It was she who brought about their
introduction," he asserted. "She wrote
the first note that passed between
them. She Insisted that he come to
her home for dinner. She was the
moving spirit, as her letters Indicate."

ed in each case.
James Scarlet, representing the

Jfhe cases are listed for trial la So-
vember and December. Scarlet sought
to have them go over until the Janu
ary term on the ground that he would

Pittsburgh. Counsel for the Hazel

ance. The matter may come before
the court again shortly before the
time they are listed for trial.
