President Christopher Barnaby and for
mer President j. ID. Wood, OF District %
North America, were acquitted last
Wednesday Of the charge Of manslaughter
which has been hanging over them since
last summer. Barnaby and Wood were ac-
cused by the ST. Bernard Coal Company,
of Hopkins county, Kentucky, of being ac-
cessories before the fact of manslaughter
for the death of Morton Busch, negro
guard, who was killed in Dixon, Webster
county, Kentucky, last summer. Wood was
extradited from Indiana to be tried in Ken
lucky for the alleged crime. The charges
against the two labor leaders were pre-
ferred by j. Il. Atkinson, of the coal COM
pany, who was instrumental in securing
their arrest and Woods extradition. The
testimony adduced in their trial was insult
ficient for a conviction. being based almost
entirely on hearsay evidence.

MACHINIsTs PLEASED.
Some Think Judge Carriers Decision
n Victory for Them.


Edward ]. Collins, business agent of
White River Lodge of the International As
ISOLATION of Machinists, and the members
of that organization are pleased at the out
come of the preliminary trial OF the case
of the Indianapolis Drop Forging Company
against the machinists. Although the tenn
porary injunction asked for was granted.
the union men feel that their maintenance
of pickets at the factory was justified. The
fact that Judge Carter in his decision per-
mits the pickets to stay at the factory
makes the result of the suit a victory to
them, they think. The contention has been
that the union as body has a right to
help its members in difficulty and is le-
gally right in employing men TO help adjust
the differences between the employees and
employer, and all of their testimony in the
trial was directed to showing that no IL
legal acts had been committed by the
pickets.
