the New York Times we learn that
over .. 3,000 out-of-town merchants

York merchants. On Monday last,
the New York Merchants' Associa

spring trade, 419 buyers, or the next
largest number on record for such a
date, inscribed their names at asso

day's registration left no record un
broken. All the hotels that cater to
the out-of-town buyers were over

Pittsburg Flood-Swepi.
Pittsburg, Pa., Special. Spread
ing ruin and disaster in its path, the
annual flood of the rivers and small
streams of this section holds Pitts
burg in its grasp. At 10 o'clock the
water bad reached a stage of feet
and was rising a half foot an hour.
The weather bureau predicts 30 feet
and possibly a foot higher when the
crest of the flood arrives. While
the weather conditions are much
colder and snow flurries are experi
enced at intervals the changed con
ditions will have absolutely no ef
fect on the high water. 4

VIOLATED COURT SHilNCTlOH
Sentenced to Days. Imprisonment
and .?250 Kadi For Per
mitting Strike Violence Case
Goes to Coat oi' Appeals.
New .York City. Three officers,
past and vrSssnt, of Typographical
Union No. 6, better known as "Big
Six," ware ordered committed to Lud
low Street JJail for twenty days and
fined $25fteh, and" two members of
the union were Ityed $100 each by
JnsUoekc&M&o.nV'. of the Supreme
Court, for. violating t,be terms pf a
Supreme Const injunctiou
The en tnus sumpiirily ordered
punished -are: fjfc
Patrick H. McCormick, ex-preBldent
of -"Big Six," sentenced to twenty
days imprisonment and to pay a flue
of 50.
George W. Jackson, organizer, a
similar ' sentence.
Vincent JX'ostello, ex-organizer,
similar sentence. .
William J. S. Anderson, fined $100.
Thomas Bennett, fined 1100,
The cause of this drastic action,
dates back to a period in 1906 when
Typographical Union No. 6 ordered a
strike against the association of mas
ter printers "known as the Tynothetao
of the City of New York. The men
struck for a closed shop and an eight-
hour day, which the employers re
fused to grant .
The Typothetae took counsel and,
on 4 the plea that the strikers were
practicing intimidation against their
employes who. remained at work, .Tus-
Jttcp Blanchard granted an injunction
restraining the officers and members
of Typographical Union No. 6 from
interfering with the workmefa who
remained with the Tvnothetae
Shortly thereafter Robert ',G. Beat-
ty, counsel for the Tynothetae, ap
plied to the Supreme Court for1 the
pupishm'ent 'of officers and members
of the Union for contempt or court m
failing to obey the terms of the in
junction. Mr. Beatty charged that
the acts of violence complained of
were still being perpetrated, and
made specific charges against certain
members of the union.
Uoon these representations Jus-
tlcedBlschoff appointed Adam Wiener
of No. -320 Broadway, a referee to
take testimony in the controversy
and to report back to the eourt. The
referee continued his hearings until
December last, and a short, time ago
submitted his report to Justice Bis
choff.'. The' latter affirms the report;
and says: -
,,.,"The findings Of the referee upon
the questions specified in the order
of reference are all supported by the
evidence of the full. degree of cogency
and probative value required for the
purpose of the proceeding.
"The questions involved have been
fully discussed by the referee, in the
opinion filed . with'' his report, and I
am in accord 'with" the reasoning em
ployed by him. If the solemn orders
of this court are to have any efficacy,
punishment sufficient as a deterrent
should be visited upon the respond
ents whose disobedience has been es
tablished in the present Case; and I
am satisfied that the mere imposition
of a fine in the present case, within
the statutory limit of $250, would
afford no adequate penalty in the case
of the officers of the respondent asso
ciation, but would rather operate as
fixing a small fine at which exemption
from the embarrassing features of an
injunction might be purchased. As
to the other respondents, who are op-
. erating at daily wages, a fine is pre
sumed sufficient punishment.4'
In the usual course of things an
order would be entered, on notice to
,alj . parties concerned reciting, the
decision and the penalties, and fol
lowing that the men. would have toi
begin their." terms of imprisonment in
.Ludlow 'street jail and pay the fines.
.But it was agreed among counsel tha
an appeal would be taken from Judg
Bischoff 's decision and a stay of the
.Order obtained meanwhile. What
ewlhe decision Of the Appellate
Division, it is certain that the Court
ot Appeals will be -asked to pass on
thsf matter before, any5 final order is
efitqjrd&j-as both sides realize the im-porMncS-
ofr;th4 dilation.
. .-Lawyer TOrt-eitBeaifcy, who rep
resents theTyfoJEhetae in the proceed
fhgs, said i.-tijat he was Immensely
pj.effid witn. f.the decision and ex
pected tbit It - would -bi upheld,, bv
thehigjCest courts.-- v.wc
r '-It is tlie first. .trine,. hesaid, 'that

fines, which can begid V the union

men did, namely, urgon their fol
lowers to disregard the 'Court's orders
and-.proceed in their plans of threats,
assaujta and intimidations witnout
hindrance, as though there had been
no such injunction issued."
Alfred' J. Talley, counsel for the
union men, said that he believed the
Mecisionwpuld be reversed on appeal,
as the men punished, acted, be
thought, without fall knowledge of
the effect and meaning o the Court's
injunicwon. ' ' '
