EX POLICEMAN TRIES SUICIDE. Elderly Brooklyn Man Inhales Gas While Visiting in Passaic. (Special to The Eagle.) Passaic, N. July 20-By placing gas tube in his mouth and inhaling the fumes, while visiting a friend, George Bicknelk, 68 years old, of 1075 Flatbush avenue, Brooklyn, a retired policeman of that borough and a G. A.

R. veteran, attempted suicide in Jersey City yesterday at the home of John Beaney, 241 Whiton street. The man will recover. Beaney heard groans and broke into the room of his friend. Bicknell lay semi-conscious on the bed.

He was sent to the City Hospital in Jersey City. Beaney says his friend was despondent because of the death of his wife last April. The old man disappeared from home on July 2, the thirty-fourth anniversary of his wedding, and was gone two days. FOOLED THE STRIKERS. S.

S. New York Sails With a Larger and Better Crew. Officials of the American Line, warned by their experiences of the last two Saturdays, when the steamships Philadelphia and the St. Louis were held up by strikers, took precautions today to have more men than they needed on board when the steamship New York sailed for Cherbourg and Southampton. When the New York got into port last week, all but ninety of her crew of 225 walked out and refused to sign papers for service when preparations wee made on Thursday for the vessel's departure.

Captain Luckhurst, marine superintendent of the 'American Line, secured other men from this port and also brought up 75 negroes from the South. The New York left her pier at 9:30 a.m. today, the regular time, and several dozen more hands than are usually carried were taken on from floats down the bay. Most of the places that had to be filled were those of coal passers, water tenders, oilers, and firemen. The officials of the line believe they have a more efficient crew than before the strike began, and that they are better off than before.

UNION DENIES COMPLICITY.

Burns Detective Gets Signed Confes-1 sion From Man Who Declares He Got $10 a Day for Work. That "gorillas" were hired at $5 and $10 a day to slug workmen who refused to quit their jobs in the shoe factory of Thomas 410 Willoughby street, where there was a strike on, was revealed in the Gates avenue police court this morning when two men, one of them to be a walking delegate of the said, Cutters Union, were arraigned on a charge ot felonious assault upon one lot strikers. the An employes affidavit who was wouldn't submitted join the to Magistrate Naumer in which one of the prisoners, who is known variously as Frank Larkin, Red Larkin and Frank Murphy, swore that he was paid $10 a day and that ten others received $5 a day to do "gorilla" work and intimidate the men who stuck to their jobs. He swore that be and ten thugs received their pay from Walter J. McDonald, said to be the walking delegate of the union, who was arrested along with Red, whose right name is Murphy, by John Eckholdt, an operative of the William J.

Burns Detective Agency. Eckoldt is one of the detectives who figured prominently in the McNamara dynamiting case in Los Angeles and secured a heap of evidence on which the dynamiters were sent to prison. McDonald Held on Charge of Felonious Assault. McDonald. who said he is a shoe cutter and lives at 153 Lee avenue, was charged with felonious assault in that he was an accessory in aiding and abetting an attack upon Harry E.

Harmon, 2 shoe cutter, who refused to join the ranks of the strikers when they walked out six weeks ago. Harmon was attacked on a DeKalb avenue trolley car on the afternoon of June 28, near Fort Greene Park, by A. gang of thugs, who beat. him over the bead and face with blackjacks. Harmon's cries attracted a crowd of men and the assailants fled before the police arrived.

Immediately he head of the shoe factory heard of the assault, the Burns detective agency was called in. and evidence was secured by Eckoldt and other operatives which resulted in the arrest of McDonald and Murphy. In some manner which the detective doesn't disclose, he got a confession from Murphy and had him sign an affidavit in which McDonald is accused of having inspired the assault and paid the "gorillas." Murphy, in his affidavit, alleges that McDonald and another man whom he describes as a delegate of the Shoe -cutters Union, but whose name he doesn't know, led him and five others to DeKalb avenue and directed the attack upon Harmon. Affidavit Submitted by Murphy. "Hired by McDonald," He Says.

Frank Murphy," the affidavit reads, "on June 28, along with five other men hired by Walter J. McDonald, boarded a DeKalb avenue car and slugged the man who was employed by Thomas and Company, shoe manufacturers. Ten other men besides myself were brought over from New York to do "gorilla" or slugging work, and I received pay at the rate of $10 a day and the others got $5 a day for so doing." Six weeks ago fifty shoe-cutters in the factory of Thomas and Company walked out without giving the slightest warning. They had not presented any grievances prior to the walk-out, but later made it known that they struck because the fac: tory. which is an open shop, refused to recognize the union.

Their places were soon filled, thirty vacationing students from Williams College knowing something about -cutting, being hired as strike breakers. Soon thereafter many of the several hundred employes who stuck to their jobs and refused to go out, began to receive threats, and in a number instances, Eckholdt and the officers of the company sol assert, the workmen were threatened with death if they did not join the strike. Pickets were posted in the vicinity of the factory on Willoughby street, and the inen were intimidated from time to time as they went to and from their work. Six Thugs Beat Harmon to Frighten Others. When it was seen that the company did not intend to recognize the union and had employed college students and non-union help.

the strikers, it is charged, decided to give at least one of the employes a beating up for the purpose of scaring the others and causing them to desert their jobs. So Harmon was decided upon as the victim, and Murphy and the five thugs said to have been hired by McDonald did the job as directed. Murphy, who is 28 years old and says he lives at Mills Hotel No. 3, Seventh avenue and Thirty-seventh street, Manhattan, was charged with assault in the third degree, and he is accused of having struck Harmon over the head with some blunt instrument. The assault was committed in the presence of Samuel Sprague, a car inspector, of 8 Lafayette avenue.

When the case came up before Magistrate Naumer in the Gates avenue police court this morning, a representative from the District Attorney's office moved that it be adjourned until next Tuesday. Murphy was represented by Alfred J. Patterson, who declared that he did not know his client had made such an affdavit and intimated that if he did he must have been inveigled into signing it. Both prisoners were held in $1,000 bail. At the headquarters of the Shoe Cutterg Union, 2 Ralph avenue, it was denied by the officials that McDonald was in any way responsible for the assault upon Harmon.

"McDonald is not in a sense the walk-' ing delegate of the union," said one of the officers, "and he was only chairman of the strike committee. As for this man, who makes the affidavit, we know nothing about him except that he Is some irresponsible person. There is not a scintilla of truth in his statement that he and others were hired and, paid by McDonald to do 'gorilla' work." 1 OBITUARY Penelope Y. Ludlam. Oyster Bay, L.

Tobias Didn't Know He Was Violating Law-Judge May Seek a Pardon for Him. I Magistrate Dodd. may appeal to Gov- ernor Dix to pardon Charles Tobias, whom he sent to jail this morning, from the Adams street court, for fifty days for violating the game laws. The magistrate hated to send the man away, and he read the law over and over again to find if he could put any other construction on it. But the statute, he discovered.

was mandatory. Tobias had pleaded guilty to having in his possession eighty-five "chicken" lobsters and that was sufficient for the magistrate. Tobias, who lives at 58 Ten Eyck street, and who is a fish dealer, did not know the law, which was passed on April 15 last, and he had never dealt in lobsters before the unlucky day when he was caught. Mrs. Tobias, with a baby in her arms and surrounded by four other anxious little children, sat in a front bench wondering what was going to happen to her husband.

When the magistrate finally decided that Tobias must pay $50 or go to jail for fifty days, the minimum punishment, Mrs. Tobias and her five little ones set up a concerted howl, and Miss Connelly, the woman probationary officer, had to hustle them out of the court. Magistrate Dodd had moist eyes when saw the father go back to the he pen, for Tobias is very poor, and he was never arrested before. The prisoner was philosophical, for he realized, after the case had been explained to him, that the game wardens, it they are very zealous, may collect $10 for each lobster, and $10 each for -five means $850. Tobias never could pay such a fine if it was imposed.

A judge may suspend sentence in the case of a burglar, or a man who nearly kills another with a deadly weapon, but there is no magisterial to power suspend sentence in a case of a man having a chicken lobster in his possession. He must take at least fifty days in jail if he he not the money to pay his fine. Magistrate Dodd was very much distressed when he found that he could not suspend sentence in Tobias' case. The pathos of it all was added to when the elder of the Tobias children asked: "Mamma, have We carfare to get home?" "Yes. dearie," said the grief-stricken woman, "a kind man in court gave me 50 cents.

And -papa will be home soon." Case of Tobias Most Unusual. The case of Tobias, as he explained it, was unusual. He was standing on the elevated station at Myrtle avenue and Adams street on Thursday, waiting for a Ridgewood train, when a stranger came up and offered to sell him eighty-five lobsters, which he had in a bag, and the bag as well, for $1. It seemed like 2 good speculation, and Tobias paid his last dollar for the crustaceans. Almost immediately afterward he was arrested by Frederick Bauerenschmidt, a gamewarden, for having the lobsters in his possession.

A law passed this year makes it a misdemeanor to have in one's ing a lobster, the "carapace" of whichkeep-, meaning the hard, shelly part--does not measure more than inches. Tobias did not know that. He thinks now that the man who gave him the bargain had seen and recognized the game-warden and had been in a hurry to get rid of the lobsters. When Bauerenschmidt opened the bag, he found the lobsters, and Tobias deny that he did not had purchased them. But he had no idea that he was violating the law.

The wife and children went into the pen with him and there was a of scene woe that was never witnessed in the Adams street court before. Miss Connelly took up a collection for the present needs of the family, and the magis-1 trate was one of contributors. It is not unlikely that he will ask the Governor to pardon the father before the fifty days expire. In the meanwhile Mrs. Margaret Tobias and her five little ones will have to depend on their friends.

and the charitable, for their food and shelter until the father comes out of jail. Mamie Siegel, 22, of 357 Christopher av. Charles L. Schulz, 38, of 32 Troutman Skinner, 31, of 217 Knickerbocker st, Mary av. Joseph A.

UNION NOT TO BE RECOGNIZED Majority of Playhouses Will Have Music as Usual When the Season Opens. The backbone of the theater musicians' strike, it is asserted by the managers, has been broken, and with hundreds of union men applying to be signed up under the old terms, the proprietors of most of the show houses in Brooklyn and New York have reconsidered their determination not to have music this coming season. Consequently nearly all of the Brooklyn theaters will open with full orchestras and of the many houses in Manhattan only eleven have decided not to have, music. And these are dramatic houses that don't need to have music, inasmuch as they don't intend to produce musical shows. When the demands of the union musicians were presented to the Association of Theater Managers of Greater New York they were promptly rejected, and at a conference of representatives from all the houses affiliated with the association, it was decided unanimously to do away with music.

Convinced that the managers were obdurate and would under no consideration give in, the musicians were soon in a state of alarm, and as a result many of them broke away from the union. Secretary Teller Flooded With Applications for Jobs. Leo C. Teller, manager of the Broadway Theater and secretary of the association, began to receive applications by the bundle from union musicians, who announced their intention of deserting the ranks and begged to have their old jobs restored to them. But the managers wouldn't pay heed to the requests at first and reiterated their determination to do away entirely with music, except in musical shows, burlesque troupes and vaudeville.

Musical productions, it was planned were to carry their own orchestras, whose members were to have nothing to do with the union, and it was decided that the vaudeville houses could get along with only a piano and a drum. The scheme was tried out and met with the approval of the theater public, and the union musicians quickly saw that they were up against a difficult proposition. Then requests started to pour in to Manager Teller, and he had so many applications from musicians from all parts of the country that he could more than supply every house in greater New York. One and all who asked for jobsand most of them were members of the union, too--declared that they were perfectly willing to accept the old terms, and the pay of $28.50 for eight performances, including two matinees, was satisfactory. They would not insist upon being paid for rehearsals- they wanted were jobs under the former conditions.

They promised that in the event of their being engaged to play at a symphony or other concert they would give the manager of the theater due notice and would have competent substitutes to take their places. Then it was that the managers realized that, after all there wasn't any need eliminating music, and today they began signing up the musicians. Union Will Not Be Recognized. Mr. Teller started in this morning to sign five year contracts with musicians he has engaged for the coming season, stipulating in the contract that, whether or not they are members of the union, he will not recognize the organization.

E. M. Trail, manager of the Montauk Theater, also made similar contracts, and it is likely that within a few days every other theater in Brooklyn will have a full orchestra signed up. Besides the Montauk and the Broadway Theaters, the managers of the following Brooklyn show houses have already decided to open up with music and will contract with the musicians on Monday under the old terms: The Orpheum, Bushwick, Greenpoint, Crescent, Gotham, Bijou, Shubert, Royal, Fulton, Columbia, Royal, Fulton, Liberty and Jones'. The New York theaters that have agreed to have music include the Amsterdam, Moulin Rouge, Park, George M.

Cohan, Astor, Grand Opera House, Globe, all of the Keith houses, Harlem Opera House, Colonial, Alhambra, Bronx, all the Proctor and Loew theaters, and Hammerstein's Victoria. The houses that have decided to do without music in spite of the fact that they can easily get musicians are the Empire, Garrick, Criterion, Lyceum, Harris, Hudson, Fulton, Gaiety, Liberty, Wallack's and Eltinge's Forty-second Street Theater.
