" KILLING BEGINS MONDAY Shelter Island's red deer have Just two more day to brow e on young green thlrtfw and twitch their earn In the sun light. Condemned by the. Conservation Commission they must die on Monday. Thero Is no way out of It. Conservation Commissioner (Jcorge U. ITatt sent word to Tun 8l'n yeMerday from Albany that no one regrets more thnn he the necessity for exterminating tho 200 or more, deer that have become so vexatious to the agriculturist and hortlculttirlsui of the .Island, but that after considering the situation with the greatest caro and deliberation he la convinced that they must be shot. "The deer have become as numerous land as pestiferous as Jack rabbits," said .... , ' .. .

' Wh" .'t"'" f tl commission Is' extremely difficult the public, and esne-1 dally naturalists and persons Interested ! In preserving wild game, must know that the Commissioners have considered every osslble expedient and have found that no suggestion looking "toward the pres ervation or the removal of the deer to another feeding ground Is practicable." I'tlca Mm Make Offer. It was learned that E. V. Ibbotson, a manufacturer of Utlca, is witling to pay from 110 to $25 for every deer captured. He wants to liberate them In the Adl- rondacks. Commissioner I'ratt said that If Mr. Ibbotsou had a practical scheme for rahtllrinff the Heer ntl effort .'nll1il Iim for capturing the deer an effort would be made to round them up, but that the Commissioners had not been able to hit upon a practical method. Myron Cameron. conserntlou division chief for the Adirondack, wilt be In this city to-day to arrange for the big deer drive on Shelter Island on Mon day. Mr. Cameron Is an expert hunter and a crack shot. He will have about twenty-five game wardens from the Adirondack?, the Catskltls and Long Island under orders. twinning eatly Monday morning, he plans to distribute his riflemen In a long line and to send them forward In xuch a way as to start every deer from coxert. It may take two or three days to complete the Job of extermination. Sportsmen from all over the State and especially frpm the neighborhood this city have besieged the Conterv tlon Commission's office In this city, at M15 Hroadway, for permlH.sloii to take part In the hunt. Nothing In recent years has o appealed to the Imagination of big game hunters. But their appll cations were refused by Division Chief j Uallagher. He Informed all Inquirers that the law makes It Impossible for any person save a game warden to par 1 tlclnate In the hunt. The warden? will proceed under hu hf)r,y of ;( ,HW whch vlclw that wild animals that have be- ron"! " "' may be shot. But there Is no open season for deer on Ixng "laJid. of which Shelter Island Is legally a part, nnd any person having the temerity to "butt In" on the deer drive next Monday would violate the game laws nnd be subject to a penalty of $200 for every deer killed $t00 ,ih a penalty, $100 additional as n fine, with the further provision of a day in Jail for every dollur of the fine not p.d.

Mrs. Astor repotted that she charged against her mm one-third of the taxes on the residence at sin Klfth avenue, amounting to 135,530. or Jl 1,843, and one-third of the $1!,000 It cost to main tain the Astor establishment last year, or l!.6fi. The Federal Income tax .on the $3,000,000 trust fund was 12, .'44 and the tax on the money she received In lf14 as guardian of the boy was 1176. The accounting shows that Mrs. AHtor paid $720 to the boy's nurse during the year and 1299 for physicians' bills. The fees to attorneys acting for the boy, with disbursements, amounted to Jl.IlS, and the premium on her bond of $120,000 as guardian was $225. She paid $sl for .merchandise and Incidentals, making the total of $27,&'.)3. Commenting on these tlgures Mrs. Astor said : "The above report shows that I have expended for the benefit of the said Infant Wtween December 3t, 1914, and tieccmber 31, 113, from my own re sources In addition to the sums receded by me for his account $",593." in explanation of the schedule of ex- pendltures Mrs. Astor said: WIDOW OF WALTER CONTESTS HIS WILL Ask Temiiornry Administrator for $1... 00.000 Kstfltc of the Incompetent.

Imposed by Judge Veeder, MAYOR'S EFFORTS FAIL Unless employer of several classes of union labor weaken by Monday 200,000 workera will be Involved In strikes or lockout. The trouble) began yesterday with the lockout of 60,000 cloakmakerv, who have been conducting negotiations with the Cloak, Suit and Skirt Manufacturers Protective Association for several months without avail. Kven the at tempts of Mayor Mltehel and large group of disinterested clttxens to Induce either side to cede enough to come within hailing distance of the other fnlled to avert the lockout. "The cloak manufacturer! do not state tho truth when they say the cause of the trouble Is our demand for a closed shop." said President Benjamin Hchles Ingcr of the International I -idles Gar ment Workera Union. "The closod nhop doesn't figure In the dispute. We want to have It decided definitely what a union man In the cloak industry Is, nnd our definition did not agree with that of the manufacturers. That Is why the manufacturers and employees fell out. "In line with the decision of the Mayor's council of mediation, we wanted It decided that a union man was one whose dues to the union were paid up and who observed the rules of the union. The manufacturers refused to guarantee that they would look at a workman's card nnd sec If he hail paid his dues. Under the preferential shop system union men In good standing would bo preferred In applications for work. "The manufacturers want to bring about the sweatshop conditions which existed before the strike of 1910. In view of this we have decided to fight them to a finish."

Theie were 3.10 girls and boys, men nnd women In the pageant, nnd many hundreds of their admiring friends anil relatives gathered to see them distin guish themselves.

Then there were the Uoiuan gladiators, Creek slaves, l.gyptlnti generals, mid so forth, mostly bate legged, but ery gorgeous In the upper stories, who came down at In terVali In the pageant and mingled with th" populaco on the floor. The story of the pageant Is described In the 'onruiif llrraUl, a competitor of the CmH, burn yesterday and due to die with the end of the enti rtiilinneiit on May 2, as "a series of dramatic stage pictures representing the notaliV strug gles In history for the freedom of the people from the opplcsillou ot the ruling classes."
