Failing to Secure Satisfactory Refresh

Called to Quell the Disturbance.
A'fter playing "Lohengrin" effect
ively on tin boilers and washtubs before
the Berry residence at No, 9 Highland
avenue last evening,, a cbaravarj gang
numbering two hundred men and boys,
stormed the house and piled their noise-'
making implements several feet high in'
hallways.
The occasion was the marriage of
Miss Ella Berry to Joseph Himmels
bach. Just before the ceremony the
ganft had mustered in quietly a few
blocks away, marched to the residence
and made demand for beer money.'
Failing to secure this, they hurried to
the great scrap pile at Sixth avenue N
and the railroad tracks and returned
with a choice kangaroo band outfit.
At the door of the house they were
met by Andrew Himmelsbach, brother
of the groom, who for some reason had
not attended the function, i He took the
leadership in the grand serenade, which
was a record-breaker. Still refresh
ments were not forthcoming and more,

Dividing forces for an effective rush
and bursting in the doors, the intrud

front vestibule and side halls were com

By this time the neighbors had noti

BABY FARMS AS A
NECESSARY EYIL
THIS POSITION TAKEN^AT IM-
PORTANT CONFERENCE TODAY.
Representatives of Various Reform and
Relief Agencies Agree that Other In
stitutions for Caring for Unfortun
ates Ar Wholly InadequateA
State Regulation of Birth Registra
tion Is Strongly Advised.
With the present inadequate equip
ment of institutions in the city, the
baby farm'' is a necessity, and under
the existing laWs it is perfectly legal.
This conclusion was generally accepted
at a conference today of worker inter
ested in the welfare of young girls who
have fallen into evil ways, and thus
coirie into the hands of the keepers of
these institutions. The 'matter has
been agitated by the Humane society
which called the conference at the As
sociated. Ch.ari.ties.
One reason given for baby farms is
that existing institutions are hedged
about by such regulations and involve
so much publicity that the girls will not
go to them. A hew institution is need
ed with greater freedom of action,
where girls can be cared for and kept,
with their children for from three to
six anonths for the sake of the phys
ical well-being of the children. A
the end of that time, if the mother
is unable or unwilling to undertake
the care of the child, suitable provi
sion for its future would be made. I
was felt that it was imperative to
keep mother and child together for
this period, and that mothers should
be encouraged to keep their children
permanently but to attempt to force
them to do so endangers the health and
life of the children.
The necessity for rigid regulation and
inspection of the baby farms was
pointed out. Among the plans pre^
sented was securing a law requiring
registration of births by all institutions
and requiring all persons desiring to
transfer the custody of a child by adop
tion or otherwise to do it under court
regulation. A state inspection of all
children placed out in this way would
be the final step in insuring the chil
dren proper care.
Preventive work came in for a share
of the discussion and its great nee'd was
emphasized. Placing headstrong girls
under surveillance of interested persons
such as settlement workers, was pro
posed. Among those taking part in the
conference were E. D. Solenberger of
the Associated Charities, who presided
Mrs. Sarah Schaeffer, police matron
S. L. Van Etten of the Humane society,
Mrs. T. B. Wells of the Children's
Home, and Mrs. E. D. Adams and A. H.

NOT TAKING TO HfOODS
MINNEAPOLIS LUMBERMEN UN
DAUNTED RUMORS O
TROUBLE WITH MICHIGAN IN-
VENTOR.
Minnesota lumbermen are not fright
ened over the prospective suit which, it
is reported, E. A. Munson of Michigan
threatens for alleged infringement of,
a patented process for prevention of
stain in lumber. They are not inter
ested because they do not use the sys
tem.
M. J. Scanlon said today that he had
heard of the process, but that it was
not used in Minnesota because the only
lumber affected.was "clear saps," and
that was a very small proportion of the
cut in this state. For this reason no
lumberman has felt justified in put
ting up a plant for sprinkling or dip
ping to prevent stain.
A Marquette, Mich., dispatch re
ports that fully half of the lumber
manufacturing companies, operating in
northern Michigan, Wisconsin and Min
nesota have damage suits in prospect
for alleged infringenient.
In early lumbering Bays it Was con
sid'ered a*'Waste of time to savfe lumber
from stain. The situation is different
now and manufacturers appreciate the
value of experiments to save the stain
losses. Hall & Munson of Bay Mills
discovered what they considered a so
lution of the problem. The sap boards
cals. dipped in a vat containing chemi
cals. The operation was continued until
the firm .went out of business a year
ago. Mr! Munson secured a patent and
sold the right to use the dip. The
threatened suits are expected to be
brought against firms employing the
sprinkling process or in other ways
evading the Munson process.
FIRST GLASS HOTELS
NEEDED IN GUM
Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Miller have just
returned from, a prolonged sojourn in
Cuba and the Isle of Pines. When
seen today Mr. Miller said:
"More than 15,000 Americans vis
ited the island the past winter,
among them a number from Min
neapolis. Havana is one of the clean
est cities I have ever seen, and the
climate is glorious. There is but one
drawbackthe lack Of first-class
hotels.
"Not only Havana but the whole
island seems to be in a flourishing con
dition. The chief products are sugar
and tobacco, but lately Americans have
bought land in the interior and are
raising oranges. The Cubans are
withdrawing their lands from the mar
ket and are beginning to cultivate it
themselves. The better class of Cubans
appear to be satisfied with existing con
ditions and treat the Americans with
great kindness."
