Riot Over Dance On Boat Halted With Revolver Protest by Manager of Floor on Mandalay Against Man's Alleged Improper ?Wrig? gling Causes Outbreak Two Placed in Brig Accused Are Discharged in Night Court, but Com? plainant Is Ordered Held A riot, which, it is said, was quelled only when the dance manager drew a gun, broke out among passengers of the steamship M?ndalay shortly after 6 o'clock last night as the excursion boat was nearing her slip at the Bat? tery. According to the management, the trouble started when Joseph Mosto, of 610 Grand Street, Rutherford, N. J., wns requested to leave the ship's dance floor by Walter Hand, of <J87 Henry Street, Brooklyn, for alleged improper dancing, "A fight!" some one cried as Mosto started to argue with the dance man? ager. At this cry the dancing stopped generally and the dancers began to crowd about Mosto and Hand, threat? ening the latter. Then, according to Hand, some one pushed him, and a m?l?o was under way. There was rushing, punching and kicking on the part of the male dancers, while their partners are said to have indulged in much screaming and some weeping. Prisoners Pot in Brig Hand, with the aid of officers of the ship, finally succeeded in capturing Mo?to and a man who gave his name as Ludwig Auger, of 72 East 122d Street, who was.charged with aiding Mosto in hl3 protest to the management. They walked the two from the floor and below decks, where they locked them in an improvised brig. When word reached the dancers that the two men had been locked up in the brig, dancing once more stopp?-d, and men and women set out to rescue ! the two prisoners. At the bottom of the convpanionway, as they charged down, it is alleged they were met by Hand, who had drawn a revolver and warned them to go back to their danc? ing and mind their own business. The dancers returned to the dance deck and the ship finally warped into her pier. Manager Held by Court Hand took his two prisoners to the ! Harbor A Police Station, where he pre i ferred charges at disorderly conduct against them. In night court, before I Magistrate; Silverman, Mosto testified : that he had no intention of ^dancing improperly. He said that if he ap i pearea to be* doing so, "the roll of the j ship, and not he, was to blame." He I then offered to give the court an exhi-, i bition of the way he thought he was i dancing, but the exhibition was ruled out. S " ? Auger then took the stand and testi? fied that he was strictly neutral in the fight. He said thst he only Jaid his h?hd on the dance manager wjhen he believed that the two combatants ! ! were in danger of rolling overboaid. Magistrate Silverman discharged the i ? two prisoners, but held Hand in ?i?OO i i bail on a charge of violating the Sul- \ : livan act. !. ? ?-?? * ' ? ?

Agreement on Oil Tax Boosts Mexican Exchange Rates Reach New High Level; Payment Will Run Into Several Millions Special Coble to The Tribun* Copyright, 1921. New York Tribune Inc. MEXICO CITY, Sept. 5.?Mexican ex? change rate? struck a new high level td-day a. th? result of the agreement of the oil companies to pay their taxes. The amount of the tax could not be es? timated to-nifcht, but it will run into several million?. Every effort is being made to im? press the public with the feeling that the settlement is a victory for Presi? dent Obregon, but nothing authorita? tive ia yet forthcoming. The fact that the oil companies withheld any state? ment, at the government's retqu?*st, dampened this propaganda. An evening newspaper here quotes a government official to the effeot that the settlement establishes the prece? dent that "Americans in Mexico must deal direct with Mexico without diplo? matic interference." This statement caused great surprise in diplomatic cir? cles. ? . Key to Murder of Furrier Sought in Poems of Passion ._ Man Slain at His Own Door Said to Have Appealed to Feminine Admirers by Skill as an Elocutionist The police yesterday continued their efforts to find numerous women whom they, desire to question in connection with the murder of Gregorious Edai, known as George Day, a furrier, out? side the door of his apartment, at 239 East Twenty-eighth Street, at 11130 o'clock Saturday night. Be was shot through the heart. Photographs of beautiful women found in the room are being carefully guarded by Detective William A. Carl? son, of the Twenty-fifth Precinct. Friends of Edai yesterday described ; him as a modern Greek philosopher. Detectives have been informed also that Edai had radical views concerning lore and that love poems?poems that he wrote and poems that he read?were treasured by him above all other liter? ature. He could recite these poems in his native Greek and translate them into English with rare skill, and his recitations and translations are said to have won him the admiration of numerous worn.a. And Edai, it seems, had commercial a? well as poetic gifts. In the clutter of photographs and verse fragments found in his room there was found a bank book with a $8,000 balance, enough to convince detectives that he did not practice his philosophy at the expense of bin wordly possessions. He earned $80 weekly by his skill as a i'ur cutter. The police learned yesterday that Edai had remained single through choice. He came to this country fifteen years ago from Greece and was fol? lowed *in a short time by his two nephews, who are in the fur business under the name of Day Brothers, 404 Sixth Avenue. Elias Edai, one of the nephews, told the p.lice^yesterday that his .uncle had confided to hint a few hours before his death that he had just paid the rent of "Julia," one of two women the police believe can clear up the mystery svrrounding the shooting.

German Government Selb Old War Dogs to Public BERLIN, Aug. 10.?The German gov- ? eminent is selling off its war dogs. It has a large number of wounded and disabled canines for sale and has of? fered them to the public at a price to be fixed by a valuation commission composed of veterinarians. Many of the dogs are said to be too old for war work, and others have been sick so long that the army officials have despaired of their ever being able to engage in active service again, should such service be required.. The public, which appears greatly attached to the liely and ferocious "police dog," has, nevertheless, dis? played little interest in these canine ?/eterans.

Glancing fur? tively ?bout, the man moved flovvly along the deserted ; street as if ex? hausted, and the patrolman had no dif? ficulty in catching up with him. "What have you there?" demanded Fitzgerald. The man cowered and then raised a thin face. "It's only a loaf of bread," he faltered, "and I am starving." Patrolman Fitzgerald took his pris? oner to West Side court, where he de? scribed himself a8 Philip Raimon.o. World War veteran and homeless.
