Strikers Ask for Shorter Hours an Increase in Pay-Sixty-five Shops in This Borough, Employing Two Thousand, Shut Down To-day. Over two thousand vest makers, nearly a thousand of whom are women, went on strike in Brooklyn to-day for more pay and shorter hours.

Yesterday four thousand vest makers, many of whom were women, went on strike in Manhattan. To-day trouble spread to this borough, and when the manufacturers refused to accede the demands of the men, their help left their benches. The vestmakers complain that for years they have been overworked and now they want shorter hours.

Usually it was a rule to work sixty hours a week and frequently the men and women claim they were. compelled to work many more hours. They also claim that they underpaid and want an increase in salary, The union is fighting for nine hours and a half a day, excepting Saturday when the number of working hours are not to exceed eight hours and a half. The union also wants a fifteen per cent. increase.

A majority of the strikers are Italians and Hebrewe. Andrea Narottta, one of the leaders of the strikers, visited Brooklyn to-day for purpose of organizing the Italian men and women and to try and keep them out until the manufaoturers give in. It WAS said this morning at headquarters that some of the manufacturers have already made peace overtures. BOGUS SALVATION ARMY MAN.

Matthew S. Whelan, the politician and club man of 125 Schermerhorn street, walked into Police Headquarters last night and inquired for Acting Captain McCauley, stating that he wished to surrender himself. He had heard, he said, that a warrant had been issued for hig arrest, and he proposed to bring matters to a climav by surrendering. Lleut. Gomeringer, who had the warrant.

took charge of Whelan and brought him around to the Adams Street Station. The lieutenant in command there detained him until 8 o'clock this morning, when Magistrate Dooley held court in the station and admitted the prisoner to bail. John Jennings, of 109 Schermerhorn street, became Whelan's surety. Mr. Jennings is a noighbor of the defendant and a former chief clerk of the Brooklyn Health department.

Whelan says he is a case of a man being in a hole through no fault of his own. He was too free with his money. He asserts that he is a victim of "panhandlers," false friends and financial Shylocks. A year ago he was on a wave of prosperity. Everything was going his way.

He embarked in a business venture as backer of a concern, and he claims, his experience cost him $9,000. Whelan says further that he Is a Mr. Easy mark for friends in hard devoted a great deal of his time diving into his pockets and pulling out for men who wanted loans. It was a very common thing for him to lend $250 to friends. There was one friend who borrowed nearly $1,000 from him.

Becoming cornered for money he borrowed from bankere. Some of these, he declares, "Shylocked" him, charging him at the rate of 60 per cent, for loans. Speaking of them he said: "They had better keep quiet or I may talk about them where it will tell." Taking up the charges of Gustave Brown, the Atlantic avenue second-hand dealer, who caused his arrest, and Berro Ostertag, the Manhattan jeweler, who accuses him of pawning a jewelled bracelet, he says his arrangement with them was purely business, and he proposed to make good to them as 600n AB possible. Whelan says he has been paying up his debts. In a short time he had paid $3,900, which he owed.

He was paying one man at the rate of $50 a month. So far, he says, only one Judgment has been gotten against him. The defendant was held for examination at the Adams Street Court.

SOUTH BROOKLYN DOCKS. July 8 Has Been Set for Hearing on Property to Be Acquired. The Sinking Fund Commission this morning set July 8 as the date upon which a public hearing shall be held upon the resolution providing for the acquisition by the city of the property between Twenty -eighth and Thirty-sixth street, and between Second avenue and the river front, South Brooklyn. This property will be used in the comprehensive plan of dock improvement which Commissioner Bensel 1s working on. The resolution provides that $7,000,000 be paid for the property, which is at the rate of $1 a square foot.

Commissioner Bensel was before the Sinking Fund Commission this morning, and he suggested that they acquire $30,000,000 worth of property at first, but Comptroller Metz objected to this on the ground that property owners would raise their price.

Louis White, of 45 Sixteenth street, who is employed by the BI R. was crossing the trestle near Coney Island this morning when he heard the wailing of an Infant.

He searched around for geveral minutes and finally discovered a new born baby in the tall grass five hundred feet from the bridge. The infant, who is a boy, was wrapped up in the portion of a woman's dress. Mr. White made his way back to the railroad station and took the child to Coney Island. An ambulance surgeon wag called in and he pronounced the youngster to be all right except that he needed a nursing.

The little wait was hurriedly brought to the city nurse, who lives on DeKalb avenue, who thinks she will be able to save it. STREET CLEANERS' STRIKE. Conditions About the Same To-dayCraven Says It's Serious. So far in the strike of the street cleanerg there has been no disorder. Commissioner Craven admitted this morning that the situation looked serlous.

A policeman accompanies each cart going through the East Side district. In Stationg I and in the Bronx, men went back to work this morning. More men went out in two of the Manhattan stations, so the total number out remained about the same. A delegation of the United Teamsters' Union waited op, the Commissioner this morning to tell him that they are not in sympathy with the strike. The men say that they are out to win and if it is necessary, they will call out the Brooklyn cleaners.

AHEARN ON THE BROILER. Contradictory Testimony of Three Inspectors Against Check Stubs. More interesting evidence regarding the irregularity of Borough President John F. Ahearn's administration was brought to light by the Commissioners of Accounts this morning. Three Inspectors of the Building Department were put on the stand and questioned as to whether or not they ever received money from Dunn Brothers, contractors.

All denied ever having received any money from this firm. The Inspectors were William Spellman, William McGee and W. W. Bucknell. Each inspector was separately shown stubs in the check book of the contracting firm.

One stub showed that Spellman was paid $25 in the form of a check: another stub showed that Bucknell received $25 in a similar, way, and A third showed that A check for $250 went 10 MaGes.

Livingston Street Relief and Public Utilities Among the MeasuresThinks He and the Mayor Should Have a Say About Spending the Money of the Municipality. Comptroller Metz announced this morning that until the constitutionality of several acts recently passed by the Legislature is decided, he will hold up all bills and vouchers presented to him as a result of the passage of the laws in point. The Public Utilities bill, the Recount bill and the Livingston Street Agsessment bill were the principal acts cited by the Comptroller, the constitutonality which he questions. "This legislation at Albany for the city," said Comptroller Metz, "and the consequent piling up of bills.

In the F1- nance Department, is getting too hot for me. I am going to know definitely before I pay out a cent where I stand. And before I pay out any money on account of the public service commission, I want the constitutionality of the law decided." Ag a 'part of his programme the Comptroller has already held up the refunding of money those who had paid their assessments for the widening of Livingston street, before the law relleving them was passed. The Comptroller's own law bureau has given the opinion that the Livingston street assessment removal act is unconstitutional, and he has sent the case to Corporation Counsel Ellison for an opinion. If the Corporation Counsel advises him that the law is not constitutional the question of refunding the "assessmnts paid will be forced into the courts for final adjudication.

The law passed this spring takes the assessments, amounting to $505,675, off the street area of aseessment fixed by the Commissioners and placed the whole cost of the improvement on the city a large, the total amounting to omething over $2,000,000. The question that has been raised is that of whether the Legislature may compel the Comptroller to pay out the money of the taxpayers of the whole city to individuals who had previously been specially assessed. The Department of Assessments has already collected $83,419 of the Livingston street assessments, and this money under the law should be refunded. The bills are now before the Comptroller, and those who have paid are trying to get their payments back. On the Public Utilities law the Comptroller's contention is that the Mayor and Comptroller should be represented on the body that is to spend the city's money.

The present commissions, created before the new constitution of the State, which went into effect in 1895, has those officials among its members. On the question of elty officials in the commission rests the question of constitutionality. The Comptroller also declared very emphatically that no bills charged to the city as a result of the Recount law would be paid by him until the constitutional of that measure is tested. Wouldn't Give Dime; Assaulted. Morris Elsenberg, of 427 Watkins avenue, says he was going along Park avenue yesterday morning when at Grand avenue he was approached by four men who wanted ten cents.

When he doclined give it they assaulted him, and he had to go to the Cumberland Street Hospital for treatment.
