1 1 THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1919. Ireland Looks to Wilson, Says Congressman MacCrate Representative-elect John MacCrate of Greenpoint, who, with Mrs. MacCrate. was recently a visitor to Ireland, Scotland and England, and who has been spending LA fey days in Washington, returned to Brooklyn today, Mr.

MacCrate was in Ireland at the time of the Sinn Feiner's Conven-: tion that elected three delegates to the Peace Conference to intercede for home Rule for Ireland.

There was no disturbance in the city of Dublin on the before the convention or the day after. was there no both days, but absent on the day of the convention itself.

"The attitude of the most of the people that I talked to was that President Wilson at the Peace Conference would help solve their problem. They interpreted that portion of his peace program concerning self-determination of little nations, as referring especially to Ireland. torney, told Justice Cropsey about the aged bridegroom's fight and of the widespread search that failed to reveal his whereabouts and of Secretary Wright's refusal to tell where Mr. Hart might be served with legal papers. The order for his examination before trial was served on him in the hallway of the building where his lawyer's office is, and the service was effected only by three weeks of patient waiting by a man from Mr.

Mooney's office, who glued himself to the office building corridor in the belief that Mr. Hart would sooner or later visit his lawyer. Hart's lawyer also asked that his wife's separation suit be stayed until the annulment suit is disposed of, of when Justice Cropsey was told that Hart began the suit on the ground of his own incapacity, he denied that motion as well.

HART, GROOM OF 86, DRAWN FROM HIDING AT ORDER OF Must Face Quiz as to Property He Owns to Give Basis for Alimony Claims.

James Hervey Hart, the eighty-sixyear-old retired jeweler, who married eighteen-year-old Katie Wolf. the manicurist, will have to come out of his hiding place and appear in the Su-1 preme Court tomorrow to answer questions before trial concerning his property and personal holdings and his income, 50 that his young bride may ascertain just how much alimony to ask for when her separation suit is tried in the Equity Term next month. Justice Cropsey, in Supreme Court today, denied a motion made by Mr. Hart's lawyer. who wanted to have the order for his client's examination set aside.

so that he would not have to face the public before the trial of the two actions, for separation and annulment of the marriage. The separation suit was brought by Mrs. Hart, who alleged that her husband abandoned her without cause, and the annulment action was brought by Mr. Hart, who accuses himself of defraud. ing his young bride into believing that she would make no mistake in mar.

rying him. The annulment suit came after the separation suit and after Mrs. Hart had made it clear that she would insist on her rights as the wife of the retired jeweler, who is said to be worth $500,000. After launching the annulment suit, Mr. Hart went into hiding.

He obarded up his South Ellioft pl. house, deserted his office at 1028 Gates and gave expiicit orders to his secretary. William G. Wright, not to disclose his whereabouts to' anybody. Edmund L.

SHOE WORKERS HERE IGNORE STRIKE CALL Small Portion Only of 15,000 Employees- General Walkout Unlikely, Manufacturer Says. A threatened strike of 15,000 skilled shoe workers in 85 Brooklyn and Manhattan factories which was predicted as a result of the inability of the employees and employers to agree on the question of working hours and wages, did not materialize today. A small portion of the employees of the John J.

Lattemann Shoe Manufacturing Company did not come to work this morning to 00 statement made by Mr. Lattemann. Stating that strike at this time would be unreasonable, Mr. Latte. mann said that he believed that it there was such a strike the plants in Brooklyn would have to close down and the shoe industry would have to move out of Brooklyn until the men returned their senses." "I believe." said Mr.

Latteman, "that we would be able to adjust any demands in our factories but I hardly believe that a strike can be prevented in some other factories in Brooklyn. I do not believe there will be a strike on a large scale because the union is unable to control its men. "The men want to open our safes and take our mone away. They are unreasonable, but they will return to their senses. Before the war they made from $12 to $15 a week, and now they earn from $25 to $40, and even $60.

In nearly all cases they are making more than one and a half times what they were making." Officers of the J. C. Cousins Company and the Hanan Shoe would make no statement on the situation, but referred inquiries directly to Raymond P. Morse of the Shoe Manufacturers Board of Trade. The factories which are affected employ 15,000 men and produce 50,000 pairs of shoes of high quality every day.

Numerous meetings of employers and emploees have resulted in no agreement so far. Mr. Morse explained the situation today as to follows: "Not one of the shoe factories in the city has offered its employees reduced wages since the ending of the war, but on the contrary practically all the local factories have granted advances. The limit has been reached, in the judgment of the manufacturers, who desire to keep their factories running to capacity, so that the full number of employees can be kept on the payrolls during the demobilization and readjustment period. This can be denice only by offering a product at which the public will pay." LT.

TURNER AWARDED D.S.C. POSTHUMOUSLY Brooklyn Officer Held Position Till Command Was Wiped Out. Lt. C. W.

Turner of the 308th 77th has been awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for refusing to surrender, although completely surrounded by enemy marchine guns and snipers near Binarville, in the Ar gonne Forest, on October 6. "He his position with extraordinary heroism and total disregard for his own life until he and his to detachment were killed." The Cross will be forwarded to his widow. Mrs. Josephine Turner, of 2837 W. 16th st.

Lt. Turner was 31 years old, and had been a member the 14th Regt. for ten years before the war, having served on the Mexican border. He went to the First Officers Training Camp, at Plattsburg, in 1917, and won a commission as second lieutenant. He received his promotion to first lieutenant at Camp Upton, where he was first assigned.

He went to France last April, and was last heard from about a week before his death. He was born in Brooklyn, and graduated from Erasmus Hall High School. He leaves, besides his widow, Josephine, mother, Lucille. DON'T STOP KNITTING "Don't stop your knitting, and sewing because the fighting has stopped in France and Belgium." This appeal has been made to the people of Brooklyn and all of the auxiliaries and branches of the American Red Cross by the Brooklyn Chapter as a result of a request received from the head of the organization in Washington. Continuation of knitting and sewing, especially of sweaters, mufflers and stockings for children and of shawls and stockings for women, is greatly desired because the Red Cross has received from Belgium and France word that there is still great suffering in those countries among the women and children.

its appeal the Brooklyn Chapter states that the greatest need is for stockings and sweaters for children because the young are the chief sufferers abroad from the cold. To the workers in the various auxiliaries the Brooklyn Chapter has specially asked that the amount of yarn on hand be used as much as possible in the following proportions, 60 per cent. for children's sweaters, 20 per cent. for children's mufflers and 20 per cent. for women's shawls.
