REFUGEES PROM WILMINGTON.
Men Who Were Driven Out Seek Aid
In Washington.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Th-ee OF the
Wilmington. N. c.. refugees have ar
rived In Washington and called at the
department OF Justice, and an appoint
ment for conference with the officials
was made. They are r. H. Burning,
United States commissioner and JUS
tice OF the peace: John r. Melton. chief
Of police. and c. H. Gilbert, superin-
tendent Of city carts.
According to their statements. all
were seized without warrant and es-
corted to the railroad station by an
armed and jeering mob. who shouted
all sorts of insults after them as they
marched along. White niggers" ap-
peared to be the least of the insulting
names with which the crowds greeted
them at every step.
Once on the train, they were told in
forcible language that II ever again
they set foot in Wilmington they would
be shot on sight. When their train ar
rived at Newberne, it was boarded. they
say. by former Mayor Ellis and law
yer named Guyon, and they were in
formed that it would not be safe for
them to remain there any length OF
time, and SO they took the first boat to
Norfolk.
Brown. a negro from Wilmington, who
did not leave at the same time with
them. they had heard, was set upon by
crowd and terribly beaten in the city
postoffice. At other points they were
warned not to stop.
The three men are at present staying
at small hotel on Pennsylvania av-
enue, but what they will do or where
they will go from here is a serious Ques-
ton with them. They say they dare
not return to their homes in Whining
ton, as they feel certain the threats Of
the mob would be carried out and they
would be shot.
They plead not guilty to every charge
made against them and insist that they
were run out of the state for the single
reason that they were Republicans
and refused at the bidding OF an ire
sponsible mob to surrender their rights
Of franchise.

SHOE STRIKE ORDERED.
Twenty-six Hundred Men Go Out In
Marlboro, Mass.

Marlboro, Mass, Nov. 15.-The joint
executive council of the boot and shoe
workers unions has ordered out the
1900 employees in seven factories. The
S. H. Howe company, Rice & Hutchins
and J. A. Frye & Co. are the firms af-
fected.
Practically all the union men and
women in the factories involved struck
in obedience to the order of the council
As soon as the employees left the fac
tories they assembled at Union hail.
where a mass meeting was held.
Practically every citizen Of Marlboro
this morning expected that the day
would bring forth important develop
ments in the controversy over the es-
Establishment of nonunion shops between
the employees and the proprietors in
the shoe manufacturing industry which
is the mainstay Of the city.
The union officials were active early.
steps having been taken to have con-
ference with representatives Of Rice &:
Hutchins. the S. H. Howe Shoe COM
pany and J. A. Frye & Co., whose an
nouncement last week that they pro-
posed no longer to recognize the unions
and thus inaugurate what Is known In
shoe circles as free shops" precipi-
tated the trouble.
The leaders contend that If the move
ment of these three manufacturers IL
successful similar action will be taken
in nearly every shoe factory in Marl-
boro. as the war on the unions is the
outcome Of a general desire to reduce
wages.
The s. II. Howe company employs
about 1.t00 hands, the Rice & Hutchins
factories about eco. and J. A. Frye &
Co. a.out Gee. All the unions in the
city have agreed 10 abide by the deci-
sion of the general council after their
conference with the three firms.
The Middiesex factory, one of those
operated by Rice & Hutchins, which
has been shut down for many weeks
owing to a strike of number OF the
employees, who refused to work under
an Objectionable forewoman, has re-
sumed operations. The cutting rooms
were busy, and thu firm claims the 9TH
er departments will be running in full
as soon as work is ready for them.
