STUART, Ia, Nov. 1c.--lSpecial Tele-
gram. )-Osburn Deignan of this city, who
was with Hobson on The Merriinac, arrived
home today for a ten days vacation with MS
mother, Mrs. Grimm. All the way across
1ow the depot platforms were crowded with
great cheering throngs; 500 eheered MIN 10
the echo at Des Moines and all Stuart was
down to the depot to meet him. Many stores
were closed, business was suspended and
the whole town was gaily decorated. Headed
by the Guthrie Center band the great crowd
marched I'D the street and escorted Deignan
to his home, and then Just as he was step
ping on the porch twenty girls who had
formed themselves into a club for the pur-
pose stepped up one at q time and kissed the
hero. All day long every ona who passed
the house would give Deignan a cheer and
dof their hats, and the Town was in a con-
tinual uproar.
This evening a great meeting was held in
the town hall, which could not hold half
those who wanted 10 get in. The citizens
of Stuart presented Delgnan with a hand
some chief boatswain's sword, 4 very fine
weapon with a solid gold hilt. Miss Louise
Mouiton, the first of the crowd to kiss Deig-
nan, made the presentation speech. Governor

1t Is safe to say that no lowe city ever
paid q citizen such n tribute as was given
Delgnan by Stuart. Deignal in an interview
gave an interesting recital of the events
leading up to the blinking of the Merrlmac
and described the occurrence, but he would
not soy much about himself, and all thai
could be got out of him about Deignan wai

DIES MONIES, New. 12.-(Special Tele-
gram.)-A decision Of great importance and
Interest to labor unions all over the country
was handed down In the district court today
by Judge Holmes In the csso Of George
Shelley Hughes against the Des Moines
Typographical union. 1t is In favor Of the
defendant and holds that Hughes cannot re-
cover damages from the union because OF
its keeping him out OF employment by re-
fusal to work In the same Offices with him.
he being a nonunion man. The question
involves the right Of labor unions to pro-
tect their scale Of wages by refusal to work
with nonunlon mon.
Hughes 10 an old compositor by trade and
has at various times been employed IN print
ing Offices In Des Moines. On several occa-
sions he has been discharged by his employ
ers because OF the refusal Of union printers
to continue work In the same ONCE. Hughes
family brought suit against tho Typographi-
cal union for 5000. claiming that he lad
no other means Of earning q livelihood and
that the union was preventing him from
holding a position by threats end unlawful
acts. The union In Its reply denied all the
allegations of the plaintiff and claimed that
1t was not guilty Of any act other than to
fairly and properly influence employers to
maintain the scale Of wages by refusing to
work in offices that employ nonunion men.
In his opinion Judge Holmes holds the
entire question to be whether the defendant
can recover damages for being kept from
employment by the simple refusal OF the
members of the union to work by the side
Of nonunion men when there Is no overt or
aggressive act on the part OF the defendant
whereby the plaintiff has been injured.
Upon this point the opinion says:
The right Of persons employed in any trade
or avocation to associate together for their
| mutual benefit will hardly be questioned in
these days Of trade unions and organizations
under various names. 1t will also be ad-
| mitted that they may employ lawful means
and methods to accomplish the proper pur-
poses Of the various organizations. l think

MALVERN, Ia, Nov. 12.-(Special.)-Last
night about 1880 a freight train from the
north on the Port Arthur came through
town at a high rate of speed, and the engi-
neer seeing the signal to stop at the cross
ing, turned on the air, but for some rea-
son the brakes failed to work. Then ne

behind forced him upon the derailing

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, Nov. 12.-Harvard
defeated Brown on Soldiers field today In
a game that at any other time in the ses-
sion would have been called an exciting
one. The visitors scored six points to Har-
wards seventeen and came so near scoring
a second time that only a disputed decision
saved the Harvard goal line. The game

uaI plays, but, as was anticipated, Harvard
showed a decided slackness after it's bril-
liant showing against Pennsylvania Har-

with the exception of right tackle. where
Halchton was missing. lrvard's tackles
