A potato famine, or at least a hort

unprecedented IicIrIUk, was fortKhad
ntved by wholesale qnntallons hero yes
terday, ' Maine potatoes, chief source
of supply, have gone up 60 per cent
since u week ago.
The wholeisalo price for n 160 pound
bag of JIulne potatoes on Kebruary 21
wan V'S to 7.-: on February 37 It
was ft.M to $S and yesterday It touched
the record figure of $10 a bag on the
pltrs, with few potatoes to bo had ever
t that price.
'According! to Mrs. Louis U. Welz
miller, Deputy Commlsaloner of Mar
kets, the poor potato crop lust year,
coupled with railroad freight embar
goes caused by weather condtlons,
Is tho probable reason for tho situation.
She recommends rice, macaroni and
spaghetti as potato substitutes while
tho high prlco rules.
JSxcept potatoes, most food prices fell
yesterday. All grades and cuts of beef
dropped n cent a. pound, eggs were
down to C7 cents a dozen for the best

end yesterday to the argument between
tht champions of the Goethals 'type of

ford M. Holland, the Joint commission's
chief engineer. With the exception of
Edward A. Byrne, the only member of
the 'board not present, tho consulting

set forth through Mr. Holland their
reasons.
At the wme time the New Jersey
Interstate Ilrldge- and Tunnel Commis
sion indorsed the Holland plan by vot
ing; It approval of Mr. Holland's reply
to Gen. George V. Gotehals's crtlclsm
of tho Holland tubes In favor of his own.
The New York. Ilrldge and Tunnel Com
mission meets to-day, and that It will
follow tlie lead of the New Jersey com

OVERSEA GIRLS WZD.
Romances of the Army Reach Fru
ition pit Arrival Here.
Two romance; begun overseas led to
a double wedding ycttcrday In the office
of Michael J. Cruise, Deputy City Clerk.
The brides were released from Elllr
Island In tho custody, of the bridegrooms
and welfare workers who later wit
nessed tho double ceremony.
George 15. Graves, assistant' steward
at- tho Hotel Colllngwood, went to the
Island to meet his fiancee, Miss Eliza
beth Edgson, 23, whom he wooed In
Kngland while serving In the American
army. With him went Corporal Will
iam P. McMackin of the regular army,
who had conin from Fort !. . Hu:t!!,
Cheyenne, Wyo.. to meet Mile. Jcano'
Thurct of Bordeaux. There were no
chaplains to bo found and so the party
proceeded to the City Hall. '
Mabel Lee, the Oudcaslan widow of
tho lato Tom Lee, who, ns Mayor of
Chinatown, ruled Mott strcot for many
yenrs before his death, was carried
through smoko and llamo last night by
Patrolman Phil Byrne, Mrs. Leo was
arlocp In her flat nt 18 Mott street when
Ylng Chong. who conducts an Importing
business at 31, opened tho cellar door nt
IS with the view to looking over u foiv
bales of stuff that tho expressman had
delivered curly In the evening. Chong
uses the basement of 18 an a sturugo
place. 1
A volume of aiyld sinoko that made
Chong strangle for a ttecond or two Is
sued from the packed basement. Patrol
mun Byrno turned In the alarm. Abovo
the street tloor 18 Molt street Is u tene
ment. Hi Oriental grandeur the widow
of old Tom Lee has lived on Iho third
tloor for thirty ycari through long wars
and mysterious llrcs and not u few at
tempts by assassins upon tho life of
Chinatown's most autocratic Mayor,
Patrolman Collins and Detectives
Delaney and Caravclll, being In the
Bowery near Molt stroet on a bit of
official business, went to the ussistnnco
of Byrne, unci between them thoy car
ried, drugged and chased a dozen men
and women Chinese and otherwise
down the lire es-.-apo and Into the Joss
House at 20 Mott btrcot and Into Quon
On's American Kcelaurant at 16. Nono
was obliged to go to tho hospital- But
It remained tho honor of Patrolman
Byrne to nrouso tho slumbering Mrc.
Leo from her tapestried couch ari bid
her make haste to tho window that Iiq
might give her a hand or a wholo arm
If heed be.
Shu managed to get Into a fow skirts
and furs and entrust herself to tho
lender caro of Patrolman Byrne, w)m
hustled her over to Kink Hong Lan'
place, where e,ho revived sufficiently In
a few minutes, to teH tho reporters Just
what her sensations were.
"Not that nothing's new to mo who
han lived hero for these thirty years,"
she said. "This to-night! You ain't
seen nothing. 1 could tell you boys
things, I could.'1
Meannhllo Fire Chief Kcnlon and
much tiro apparatus arrived, for two
alarms were turned In. And the firemen
went Into the smoke belching windows
and doors. Krom some place within
there emerged about thirty more persona
who had refused to budge until tho lire
men entered and began cracking doors
with their axes. None of theso thirty
seemed any tho worse for the fire. There
were men and women and a few chil
dren both sexes and of two races. But
the'y were not excited ; simply very
weary looking and uninterested.
Tho flames seemed to be confined to
Ylns Chong's bales of this and that in
the basement. The preclso cause and
the monetary damage could not be ac
curately estimated even by Chong.
Aside from Bryne's gallant rescue of
Mmc Lec, the only real thrill was pre
cipitated by Police Capt. Bourke and
Klre Chief Kenlon, who became rather
torrid In their opinions about tho rela
tive value ot police and firemen at a

WAlt ONE OF FACT0BS

' Has Bride.
Jersey City's personally conducted
March rent strike began yesterday with
about 800 occupants ot apartment houses
refusing to pay Increases In the monthly
rato demanded by their landlords. This
Is being done, as told In Tk.3 Sun and
Now York Herald Sunday, upon the ad
vice of the city government, which now
has the rent gougcr up a tree and pur
poses to stand under htm with a club
until ho comes down and surrenders.
James JA Gannon, Jr., Dlrrclor of Hev
enuo and Finance, Instructed all rent
rayers upon whom eyecsaivo demands
were made, effective March 1, to bring
their I'omDlalnts to him and meanwhile
to (WltW'liiercly the amount nf
Kebruary rental. He further told them
that If the landlord attempted dispossess
proceedings the city would foot the rtu
fendaut'ti hill. Gannon and clerks of tho
llnance and law departments havo in
vestigated thus far 300 of the 800 com
plaints filed.
"In 90 per cent, of the cases Investi
gated," Gannon said yestwl'.iy, "tho
landlord Is unquestionably prolltcerlng.
On top of several other advances within
tho last year and n half additional de
mands ranging from $3 to (15 a mouth
appear In tho notices for March. Tho
landlords have not been put to any such
extra expense as to justify this. Taxes
In Jersey City arc actually lower than
they were last year. ,
"It Is customary for the landlord or
his ngont to cali for the rent money on
the first day ot the month. It Is inter
esting to noto that nt many houses
where tho tenants are on strike this
call was not 'mado to-day. The land
lords knew that only tho amount of last
month's rent would bo offered to them,
and evidently they want to get legal 4d
vlco before accepting It."
the
Tho world reasonably Is filled with
men who have had no' difficulty In enter

plus army foodetuffs that has been held
for somo tlmo In tho old Astor Library
building at 435 Lafayette street, may
continue to profit for at least another
month, thanks to the kindness of the
new owners ot the building, the Hebrew
Sheltering and Immigrant Aid Society.
Instead of ousting the tenants and oc
cupying the quarters on the first of the
month, as had been the society's Inten
tion, It was decided yesterday to leave
tho army In possession, at least until
April 1. Two reasons were given at the
society's headquarters, 229 East Broad

low cost of army 'foodstuffs outweighs
tho advantage of a month's earlier oc
cupancy of tho larger quarters, and the
additional tlmo will allow the society's
architect to prepare In greater detail the
plans for alteration Into a modern and
sanitary home for Immigrants.
Capt. Jaffray Peterson, who is In
charge ot the sales, said' his store would
continue as lively aa over, possibly until

YHie Sun is
It is 5:15 nnd the morning
star, a dmmond more brilliant
than any of Queen Victoria's
Jewels, has hidden itself in the
bosom of the sky.
A wide belt of carmine,
silky looking ribbon tics to
gether the sea and the shore
of green trees which have
been permanently wedlocked,
for centuries.,
While gazing at it all there
comes to mc the ancient
fable that follows:
The Story of the
Sunflower
perhaps almost forgotten.
Clytie was a wuter nymph
who loved the sun and wor
shipped him us a god. She
constantly gazed, at the ob
ject of her affections when
he rose in the mornings and
while he passed along on his
daily course. She hud no eyes
for any other object. At last
her limbs rooted and her face
became the sunflower which
turns on its stem so us always
to look ut the sun.
Even u flower can teach
us n lesson, and the daily life
of the Store, where many
conic, offers much of beauty
to see, hear and think about,

So when we announce real
filet lace at specially low
prices it's an occasion for
getting a supply. We can
offer the lower prices because
of the good work of our buy
