j KILLED SAVING CHILDREN
s Driver, Loved by Many Young

Many children in "Willlamsburp went
' to bed last r.ipht with trar-stained faces.
I due to ftltei at the death of the man
' they all loved. For twenty years Jacob

' Laughlin r.:..thers. publishers, at South

Mast. trip last nipht, but by his heroisn;
saved several of his little friends from
', probable death or serious injury.
The stables of the publishing: firm are
lin the neighborhood, and for years i:
! has been the ustom 'of the children to
' Quit their play in the street when they
saw J.ik- b" truck approaching. He
, would invariably stop about a block
j from the stables, so that the children
•■ mjgixt clamber up on the wagon and tfei
I heir accustomed ride.
The children were waitinK for "Jake"
iast nicrht. and when they saw him com
' inp down the street they began to cheer
i and dance with joy. Suddenly an auto
! mobile grazed Leap's wapon and caused
! his horse to bolt down the street. "Jake"
! knew that h«_- must act promptry if his
i young friends rr»- not to b«- trampled
' upon. Putting all his strength into a.
vigorous pull he steered the maddened
: beast directly into a telegraph pole. The
' •n afion was smaaiked into bits and Leas
j was pinned under the wreckage. An
jambu ■ sursreon said the man had
I been almost BBtantly killed.

TO DEFY TAXI MEN
f Pi.iintird from flr«t "***
under a misapprehension of fact in tak
ing it for granted that the men who
called upon him from the Wescntt and
Connecticut companies represented the
rank and file of the employes of those
companies. He *aid that a very sma;
I number of men in either company Is dis
i satisfied with the strike, and that the.
; sreat majority of them had protested at
strike headquarters ajralnst The action ot
the committees in visitlnp the Mayor
j and assuminß that they were acting: for
all the employes. There wouldn't be a
baker's dozen return to work to-day, tv?
said, and the rest would stay on strike
| a? iongr as it was necessary to gain union
| recognition.
Mayor Promises Protection.
Mayor Gaynor's statement was in the
[ form of a letter written to John Tack-
I ney. a member of the Wescott company's
I committee, which called at the Clty
Hall. It read as follows:
After your delegation of eighteen of the- !
! taxicab drivers of the Westcott Company,
at the Grand Central Station, called on me
yemerdny. and assured me that all of your j
j two hundred men were satisfied with their I
wagep and f men t and wanted to bo ,
i back to work, but that the union would not j
' rermi' them to. I brouffht about a meet
injr between the employinE comranie*. the j
>arierp of the union and representatives
of the State Board of Mediation and Arbl- j
\ tration last nicht.
The employer? conceded the demands In ;
respect of terms of employment, and agreed
to take 311 of the men back without re
eard to whether they J>«"ionj? to the union
or no', and thereafter not to discharge any .
one for bel^nsrinsr to the union. They thus
conceded the "oprn 81107-." as> it la called,
namely, open to union and non-union men i
j wlthonl cli.«eriminution. But the union :
ieadpr? demanded that every one be ex
cluded lrom cmtiloyment exr»pt union men.
and would not yield on thl£ head: in other
i worr'p they demar;cl the "closed shop." i. '•■. I
\ closed acainst trmvy one exrep r union men. j
The ca«e is just the revere? of that of •
the cxiHcas companies" strike. There the i
j men withdrew their demand that only i
: union men he employed and the companies :
j held out for a we*k thereafter on the prop- i
j ositlon of discharsring: all union men or not j
employing any, which they finally with- i
drew, for the reason that enlightened pub- J
j lie opinion wap against it. Thai same opin- j
| ion Is now as justly against the demand |
jof the cab drivers' union that the shop be j
! closed to all except union men. It holds j
that one *io> has no mori ri:rht •■- demand j
j "closed shop"' than the oth»r. Employes |
! are non demanding what they condemned j
i employers for demanding; last week :
I advipp you al! to go back to work at |
once. h:tl If you ar» in danger of attack ;
I from streel idler? or loafers a Doliceman \
j wfl] he sent out with you on the cab. the j
same a? a police e?cort on horse rir bicycle j
! was given to every exprese wagon that :
] w»nt out durinK that strike.
Have no fear that you will not be fully j
protected I have given the same advice |
! and assurance to the employes of the Con- |
j - ticu< Taxicab Company, who are en
tirely satisfied •'"ith their pay and desire to
;go back also. Very truly yours.

A crowd of strike sympathizers at
tacked a cah belonging to the New York
Cab Company In Astor Court. Just west
\ of the Waldorf-Astoria, yesterday after
noon, r.nd a woman passenger barely
| escaped injury by jumping from the cab
; and running int^ the hotel when th» I
I trouble began. The crowd ut the j
j horse loose, overturned and practically j
wrecked the cab, and grave th? driver, j
Alexander Walton, of No. 20C> Ninth i
! avenue, a bad beating before the police j
: intervened.
The attack waa carefully planned. !
[ The strike sympathizers had concealed i
' themselves, some in doorways and some j
in the alley which run? back of the
Waldorf between .'?4th and 35th streets, ;
and at a signal from some one who was '
acting as leader suddenly surrounded
I the cab as it was enter?np 'the court.
1 Walton was pulled from his seat. His
whip was taken from him and he was
beaten over the head and shoulders
with it.
The woman inside the cah was quick
to realize what was happening and she
jumped out as the driver was being
hauled off his seat. A riot call was sent j
tr. the West 3Oth street station and the j
reserves were turned out on the run.
The crowd scattered when the police ap
peared. Walton, who was bleeding from
cuts on his face and head, was treated I
by an ambulance surgeon from the New j
York Hospital. i
The p/->!icp arrested a man who was j
said to be a ringleader among the riot
ers. When arraigned in the Jefferson
Market court the prisoner gave his
name as Vincent H. Alien, of No. 28°
West 114 th street, and said he was a
chauffeur. He was held for examina- I
tion in $1,000 bail on a charge of assault
and malicious mischief. There was no
other rioting- reported to the police dur
in,«: the day.
Reagan Calls on Mayor.
Michael J. Reagan, of the State Board I
of Mediation and Arbitration, who pre- |
sided at the unsuccessful conference of
th«- taxicab owners and the strikers'
committee on Monday night, called on
Mayor Gaynor yesterday and left a com
prehensive report of thj» meeting.
Mr. Reagan said in his report that th« I
questions at issue were settled with the
exception of the demand for recognition
of the union, which wa.s in the following
terms: "That only members in pood j
standing of Local No. 1!«*.7 of the Inde
pendent Brotherhood of Teamsters of
America be employed"; and amended to
read: "The employers shall have the I
right to discharge any man detrimental j
to their business without interference !
from the union." The proposition in its j
entirety, was rejected by the employers' j
association, the report said.
Mayor Gaynor wrote his letter to Mr 1
Tackney after adlng Mr Reagan's re- \
port.
Several members of the Auto Cab I
Owners' Association called on Mayor !
Gaynor at the City Hall yesterday after
noon. They were in conference with him '
only a few minut-s. and declined after- I
ward to discuss the nature of their visit, j
It was l<-arne ] later that they had asked |
the Mayor for protection for their taxi- I
•■.■ibs to-day, and representatives of ti: - '
association said they received assurance j
that they would g«t police protection.
The striking drivers and helpers of the i
< xpresa companlefl who returned to work ;
on Monday remained contentedly in their !
places yesterday The companies were
moving the usual number of wagons
and making a good inroad upon the ex
press matter which accumulated during
tho strike.
The leaders in the teamsters' union:
were strongly m.jectinK yesterday tr, the !
action of the Adams Express Company
in refusing- to sinjlnj tivt- of the men i
who had served r>n strik" committees. |
Th*> sum»- complaint waa heard aerainst
the American Express Company for noi
taking back twenty waybill clerks and j
checkers whp bad been on ■trlke.
William H. Ashton, general organizer
of the teamsters' union, declared It wbjb

The "History" of th? Wednesday Sale Briefly Told
Up to nearly 2 year? ago we disposed of Used Pianos taken in exchange
for nev Knabes in semi-annual sales. Due to the enormous increase in recent
years in the sale of the Knabe Piano in New York City alone, and the rapid
accumulation of instruments of various makes (from the greatest to the least >.
taken in part payment, and the fact that we could not attord to i:se our valu
able floor space for the storage of used pianor-. even though our wareroorns
are the largest in New York, we figured the way out was to thoroughly repair
and remodel the pianos in our shops— TO MAKE THEM AS GOOD and
in some cases BETTER THAN' WHEN THEY WERE NEW, and efter
them weekly at such figures and on such easy terms that they would md
IMMEDIATE PURCHASERS.
The plan "took." and took so well with the public of New York that
Knabe Wednesday Sales— an innovation that has become a permanent msi
tution of this House— have reached the 100 th Wednesday >ale.
Many thousands of music lovers who have taken advantajp of the
extraordinary values have excellent reason to remember the Wednesday Sales,
and to recommend "Wednesday at KnabeV to their friends.
THE "NEW" FEATURE
To meet the demand of a certain class of music lovers who feel they are not
financially prepared at the time to buy a Knabe Piano or Knabe Player Piano, we
have made a specialty of offering and will continue to offer at our Wednesday Sales
the following exceptional Piano values from time to time.

These instruments are FULLY GUA RANTEED and sold at so close a margin
that it is utterly impossible for any dealer to attempt to duplicate the value: and at
any time within two years after purchase w e will allow the FULL AMOUNT OF
PURCHASE PRICE (or partial payment) TO APPLY ON THE PURCHASE OF
A KNABE PIANO OR PLAYER.
This is done simply because of our faith m the instruments and the beiief that
those who purchase them will take advantage of our liberal exchange privilege and
eventually purchase Knabe instruments.
