On Monday afternoon. Just a day after tha body of little Julia Connors was found, Swarts cams to tho little flat of Max Kaplan, en the fourth floor of the crowded six-story tenement at 219 Chrys-tle Street, In search of a room.

Tha young man paid 11. the bl which hla father had given him on the iay before, when ha had met old Samuel Swarta at Houston Street and the Bowery and had confessed to him that be was tha alayer of Julia Connors. It waa at that meeting that father told him to commit aulclde.

Nathan Bwarta told the Kaplans that ha waa Max Hlrschkowlts, and he added that ha had once been a waiter. He got a small room In the flat next to that occupied by the two small Kaplan children. Swarta a deacribed as having been morose and not talkative. Every morr.ln ho left the house, apparently In search or wot It, and he did not return until nightfall. Where spent the time without being captured with a cltyful of detectives on bis trail is a question which even the pollco would Uke answered.

i Swarts. the polios know, met his father, wot only on Sunday, but on tho following Monday and Tuesday. It waa at that latt meeting, tha police believe, that the father told his son that he was under fusplelon and that tha police were lookers' for him. After Tuesday ho never met his father again, for after that day there aa never a member of tha Swarta family free from the constant aurvelllance of tho detectives. Bach time the father met his son he cave him a small sum of money, and It waa this money that kept tha boy going.

He never paid the Kaplan! any mora rent, but ha told them that he ex Dec ted work soon, and thev. followlna the custom of the poor, kept their roomer, in the' hope that he would pay later, and advised him to cheer up.)

Edison waa not able to appear at the home of Emlle Schultse, referee, to-day and give testimony In the suit of James H. White and John R. Schermerhorn against Perolval L. Waters, but testimony given by his advertising manager, Leonard C. McChesney, threw light on the methods of William E.

Gllmore when he was President of the Edison companies. Another day will be set for tho appearance of Mr. Edison. Mr. McChesney testified that Gllmore was President of the Essex Press, a Newark printing concern, in 1906.

It had a contract with the Edison companies to do their printing at a price based on the cost of the work plus a margin of 15 per cent, profit- That contract waa in force until April 1, 1908, when It waa abrogated tn favor of a new instrument, making the margin S3 1-3 per cent. This contract was abrogated simultaneously with the withdrawal of ailmore from tho Edison concerns. Mr. McChesney refused to say whether or not he had ever Informed Mr. Edison of the existence of the contracts, but he said they were not signed by Oil-more, but by the Vice President of the Edison William Pelser.

Affidavits submitted by Selden Bacon, attorney for White and Schermerhorn, Implied that Mr. Edison knew nothing about the Essex Press until a few days before Gllmore resigned. I The original contract was for one year, but the contract under which the profits were to be 33 1-3 per cent, was for three years, Mr. McChesney testified that the gross business of the Essex Press for the three months in which the more favorable contract waa in force amounted to The inquiry Into the business of the Ertex Press was made with a view of Impeaching testimony previously given by OH more in the original trial of the same suit, ne naa saia on the stand that he never gave hla consent to a partnership between Schermerhorn, White, Wat era. and himself, and never waa Interested in any other business while at tha head of the Edison plants.

Smith of the banking and brokerage firm of Osier at Hammond, and a former Presl- the Toronto 8tock Exchange, was killed shortly before midnight in an automobile accident at Richmond HllL 14 miles north of Toronto. Lome Campbell, another hroiier, was injured, and Victor Rosa, financial editor of The Toronto Globe, suffered a broken leg.

The purpose of the testimony, which was brought out by Warren S.

Stone, Grand Chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, waa chiefly to ahow that the tonnage pulled had Increased considerably since there had been an incraaso of wages, which la one of the principal grounds on which an advance Is asked. The Introduction of larger engines, some using superheated steam, was emphasised, as waa the fact that In some cases the number ef cars waa limited only by the fact that more could not be contained within one block of the signal system. All the men told of the time they put in before the beginning of a trip, and at its conclusion, tn Inspecting tha engine and getting everything ready for the run. For thla they get no additional pay. except in some cases when they are already entitled to overtime for the hours actually spent on the run.

Several of them dwelt on the time It took them to get from where 'they lived to the roundhouse or storage tracks. R. E. Reed said he was a spare engineer on the New Haven and worked on any of alx divisions. He has to carry six time tables and be familiar with them.

On the longest run, 140 miles, he said, there were 150 signals to be observed. One of the things he mentioned as taking time at the end of a trip was signing the law book." It developed that this is a record kept by the rsllroad in order to keep within the new law which prohibits tho working of train crews more than sixteen hours continuously. Mr. Reed said his earnings varied from $30 a month to $170. according to how much spare work there was.

The rate waa (4.65 for a hundred miles. Sometimes he worked several days In place of regular engineers. I've had eventy-flve or eighty Jobs In a year," he said. If I had one for a week I'd shake hands with myself." W. M.

Duncan, of counsel for the railroads, brought out that on the New Haven the men were raid for overtime on a double basis; that Is. they were paid for the extra time and also for the extra miles they made. For running 140 miles in twelve hours, Mr. Reed said, he would get $7.43. F.

A. Hallet has a local freight run on the Boston A Maine, twenty-four miles in lenrth. It takes him about 1M4 hours to make the round trip. He said ne had no riKhU. meaning that he had to wait for any other train that came along.

The work of loading and unloading at tho different stations and keeping out of the way or xirst ana ciass trains, he said, waa what consumed the time. He aid he always got back the same day because, if it took him twelve hours to finish the trip It was apparent that he could not get back within the statutory sixteen hours and the company brought him in on a passenger train, sending another crew to take charge of his freight He gets $28.68 a week for four days', work. George E. Hanley was called as one of the men who handles a great tonnage under the present system. With a Mikado engine he handles 4.GOO tons In about sixty csrs.

He makes his run of 122 miles In fourteen hours. The engine he formerly had, he said, pulled only 3,000 tons, so that his work had been Increased. He was away from home two days on a trip and had to pay his own expenses. On some trips he waa away five or six days. He makea about Sl.200 a year.

J. W. Smith runs from Cumberland to Grafton. West Ve, on the Baltimore Ohio, and has to have the aid of two extra engines In hauling 1.275 tons up Into the mountains. He said there had been several runaways on the down grade, In one of which five men were killed.

His pay averages $118 a month. William H. Uhr hauls freight west from Syracuse on the New York Central and averages I1B0 a month. F. I Singleton works on the Newark division of the B.

his labors consisting partly of distributing empty coal cars to the mines, which takes much time. He said the tonnage had increased largely In the last two years and that he could not make as much now as formerly, owing to slackness of business, which prevented all the men being worked aa many days a month. He said, with the long trains My Clearance Sale Is On Mot Levy, It's second nature for me to undersell the regular retailer by at least one-third because I manufacture all the clothes I sell, and my location saves thousands in rent.

Beat Him with His Own Club He 8hoota One. Tha reports of several revolver shots started aeveral policemen hurrying from near-by streets to Ninety-eighth Street and Third Avenue' about o'clock last night They found a crowd of about a doteiv negroes kicking and striking at Policeman August Schupp of the East 104th Street Station, who lay on the ground, his revolver In his hand. His head was cut. hla uniform waa torn, ani one negro wielded the policeman's club, striking with It at hla head. The rescuera charged Into tha crowd and belabored the negroes with their nightsticks.

All of them ran, but the policemen captured one man and found another lying groaning 00 the sidewalk. He was shot through the neck. They called Dr. Korn from tho reception hospital, and he took seven stitches In Schupp's scalp. He took the wounded negro to the hospital, saying his condition was serious.

Schupp said that he had noticed the crowd while walking down the avenue. He saw that they were drinking beer from cans and were Insulting women and pushing men who raased from the aide-walk. Schupp walked up and ordoreu them to move on. Instead they cloeed about him. He swung out with his nightstick and knocked one of the negroes down.

Instat.tly the crowd aet on him and kriocKed him to the sidewalk. They wrenched his club away from him and the negro he had struck aimed a blow at his hsad. The end of the club struck the sidewalk as another part of It nit the pollceman'a head ao that the force of the blow waa broken somewhat Otherwise. Dr. Korn said, b'chupp's skull would have been fractured.

Every man in tha crowd kicked at the fallen policeman, and realising that they mean apparently to kick him to death, Schupp drew his revolver and fired a shot. Instantly there sounded other shots, which Schupp says the negroes fired. He was certain that it was a bullet from one of their revolvere and not from his own which struck the negro In the neck. T'Aat youth said he was Benlamln Christian. IT years old, of 700 Third Avenue.

The prisoner proved to be tho same man Schupp had hit and who struck the policeman with Schupp's own club. He said he was George Barnwell of 152 East Ninety-eighth Street He was locked up, charged with assault Schupp waa relieved from duty and was taken home, though Dr. Korn urged him to g6 to the hospital SUFFRAGIST ADDS VICTIMS.

She left the Hotel Pittsburgh here with a three weeks' board bill unpaid. A stenographer, too, hasn't been paid for two weeks. On Sunday night Miss Wlngate told tha stenographer. Miss Amy Hickman of this city, to take a vacation. 8lnce that night all trace of the woman has been lost 8he became quite well known among Summer people during her sojourn here, and ahe had arranged to address a meeting on suffrage in Library Hall next Monday night Miss Wlngate waa haled before Magistrate Borden last Saturday because she had not paid her board bill, but the Magistrate dismissed her until Tuesday on her promise to return at that time with funds to pay her bills.

When the police aearched the girl's effects at the hotel they discovered, among other things, tha manuscript of a suffrage play. The whereabouts of Miss Oeraldlne Wlngate Is a matter of Interest to various persons tn this city also. On June 14 a brand-new auffrage society from Chicago gave an entertainment at Carnegie Lyceum here, with Miss Wlngate as Chairman and General Manager. Shortly thereafter Miss Wlngate, the society, and every one connected with It apparently dropped out of sight but there remained aa souvenirs vsuioua bad checks which had been given for services rendered.

ABOUT 1,400 IN A PARADE While tha Band Play "Steamboat Bill" Pollea Ready for Trau-Dl, Which Did Not Come. About 1.400 striking longshoremen, seamen, marine firemen, and oilers assembled at 5 o'clock last evening In Union Rnnar and tnr mora than two hours itK r.nk. in th. iiriuiina raxn listening io nery ana rr.uiuuwu.i harangues by labor leaders and Socialist orators.

The demonstration followed a parade by the strikers and attracted a crowd of more than 4.000 persona, who cheered the speakers to the echo. All of the orators paid their respects to J. Plerpont Morgan as the head of the shipping trust and several of them denounced the United. States Government as more tyrannical to the wording class than Russia, Spain, or Italy." Tha reason for the bitter attacks on the Federal Government was explained on the ground that the blue Jackets of the American Navy had been compelled to act as scabs and strikebreakers on the Panama Steamship Line, having been assigned to supplant the striking nremen and oilers. Jacob Frost, a Socialist worker, presided at the meeting and aroused entnuslasm with the announcement that the steamship Havana had arrived from Cuba during the afternoon with two of the strikebreakers who had shipped as firemen dead on board.

They are the victims of the frightful heat which ail of you men have experienced in the stokeholes." he shouted. but more especially are they the victims of the rapacity of the steamship companies which are willingly to send out ships Insufficiently manned with inexperienced men. The most that is asked of a regular fireman is four hours' work at a time, but these men were compelled to work six-hour tricks. The Havana has made her trip to and from Cuba, but the cost of the achievement has been two human lives." M. H.

Secretary of the Transport Workers' Federation of America, told the atrlkera that they were men without a country, and that the American Government stood (or the rule of Morgan and the oppression of the working E. 8. Edgerton, a Socialist agitator, informed the crowd that it was false patriotism to swear allegiance to a Government which stands only for a semblance of liberty and equality. He was followed by James Vldal, National Secretary Of the Transport Workers' Federation, who spoke in the same vein.

Joseph L. Kaufmarn. a Socialist, shouted that he scorned a Government which gave the weight of its assistance to the strong against the weak, and Harry Canter, an Independent Workers of the World organiser, denounced the police of this city for the brutality which he alleged had been displayed toward peaceful pickets of the union along the water front The parade which preceded the mass meeting started promptly at o'clock from in front of the headquarters of the Transport Workers' Federation at '2Si West Street. A band led the procession and blared forth the appropriate air of Steamboat Bill as the marine strikers wended their way through West Street. The officers of the Transport Workers' Federation and of tho Marine Firemen, Oilers, and Water Tenders' I'nion rode in a large truck at the front of the parade.

On either side of the truck were displayed streamers bearing the exhortation, Don't Be Scabs, Longshoremen." From the offices of the Clyde Line pier H. H. Hammond.
