CALLS STRIKERS
ONE UNION HOLDERS MUST APPEAR
IN FEDERAL COURT.
Judge John H. Baker Says lockwood
Company's Men Should Have
Worn Firearms.

Some of the members of the Iron holders
Union that have been trying TO prevent
other men working in the plant of the
lockwood Manufacturing Company will
have 10 appear before Judge John II. Bak-
er, Of the Federal Court, on April 10 and
attempt to show why an injunction against
their interference should not be issued.
Deputies OF the United States marshal yes
terday afternoon served summonses to court
on George S. Custer. George +. Bucksot
Charles Warmsey, William Fail, Hugh Nc
Cormick and William Morris Custer as the
molders' unions walking delegates.
The lockwood Company by Its attorney.
A. w. Hatch, appeared before Judge Baker
yesterday morning and filed a bill for in
junction supported by ~affdavits. Mr.. Hatch
and Mr.. lockwood said that since the be-
ginning of the strike the offensive molders
had patrolled the neighborhoOd of the fac
tory i~ntimidating it's employees and assault
ing some of them. T. L. Greenleaf in his
affidavit said the strikers had followed him
to the neighborhood OF his home in Bright
wood and had knocked him down and
jumped on him.. His wife saw the assault
and has been suffering since from nervous
prostration. Joseph Born swore that he
and another workman had been beaten by
the SLTlheTSs VINO ran Wnen the ponce came
II was said that the police had been unable
TO protect the w~orkingmen against the
strikers because certain of the latter
sneaked after the wOrkmen when they left
the factory and waited for a safe Oppor-
tunity before they began their bullying.
After hearing the statements Judge Baker
said that the men that wished TO work
should have strapped revolvers to them or
carried ~shotSuns for their own protection.
IL was the duty of the mayor or the sheriff,
he said. TO protect the men that wished TO
work against those that unlawfully tried
10 prevent their working. He instructed
Attorney Hatch to add to his complaint a
demand for damages from the strikers. Mr..
Hatch then inserted a paragraph saying
that the lockwood Company had been dam
aged TO the extent of more than $1,000.
Judge Baker Will appoint a special master
TO examine this part of the controversy.
The strikers might not be able to pay the
judgments Immediately, he said. but they
would be kept in insolvency until they did
pay.
Mr.. lockwood said the holders strike be-
gan on March 3. He had made a contract
with a boy and his father providing that
the boy should work in the holding de-
partment OF the factory until he had
learned the trade. The union molders quit
work because of this, Mr.. lockwood said,
and had since tried by argument and as
sault to prevent other men taking their
places.

THINKS WELL OF ALABAMA.
w. IL. Fairly, of United Mine Work
ers' board, I'm Town.

W. r. Farley, OF Pratt City. Ala, a
member of the national executive board of
the United Mine Workers of America, is at
the Occidental Hotel. He arrived yester-
day to attend a meeting Of the board TO be
held here next Monday. Mr.. Farley is the
first of the members To arrive. He was in
Ohio when the call was issued, and decided
to come on here and wait for the sessions
of the board TO convene. The States OF
Tennessee and Alabama" said Mr.. Farley
yesterday, ARE working along very peace
ably, there being no trouble of any mo-
ment. The scale in Alabama will expire
with the last day OF June and the Tennessee
scale will expire the last day of August"
Mr.. Farley says that Alabama stands fifth
in the list of bituminOas coal producing
States. Farley is a Republican, but is not
often permitted to see his ticket win. He
lives In the Ninth congressional district,
and says the district has had one Repub-
lican congressman. He is hopeful, how
ever, of a change I'm political sentiment in
Alabama. II believe that as Alabama be-
comes more of a manufacturing State"
said he. land becomes more thickly settled
by people from the North and East, that
Republicanism will have a better chance.
The native element may see the wisdom of
dividing up politics instead of making the
State altogether Democratic"
Mr.. Farley says the coal, iron ore and
limestone resources of Alabama are mex
haustible. Eventually. he says. Alabama
will be one OF the greatest manufacturing
States in the Union.

transcripts Are Filed by the state
Supreme Court.

The transcripts in the cases of State ex
rel. w. II. Hart. State auditor. and Armin
c. Koehne, county treasurer. against Della
van Smith and Charles r. Williams. and
Harry B.. Smith. county auditor. against
the same appellees were filed i'm the Su-
preme Court yesterday. The cases involve
the question OF taxing the good will of the
Indianapolis News. In the lower court
judgments were given in favor of Smith
and Williams The briefs in the cases
Will be filed In a few DAYS. The contention
OF the State will be that what the property
Is worth based upon its income il is also
worth for taxation. The News company
claims that taxes should only be assessed
upon its tangible property. In 1899 and 1900
the State Board OF Tax Commissioner
raised the levy so hat the company was
assessed 5000 900 each year. the company
having returned assessments OF 81. 900 for
1922 and $4,000 for 1900. In the lower court
County Treasurer koehne was enjoined
from collecting taxes according 10 the as
sessment made by the Tax commissioner
in 1899 and County Auditor Smith was en-
Joined from entering the 500. 900 assessment
on the tax duplicate for 1900.

NOT ONE STOOD UP.
How n New Conductor Astonished a
Street-Car Load of Passengers

Street-Car Load of Passengers
Old street-car conductors sometimes have
a great dead of trouble with their under
studies IT is the custom of the Indian
apolis company to break in" new men by
sending them out over the lines with ex-
perienced employees who have been long in
the service. This is done in order to train
the new men to act as substitutes or sex
tras." Recently a Brightwood-line conduc-
tor had one of the new men in charge. On
the first trip the beginner was shown how
TO collect fares, how the rod connecting
with the indicator should be manipulated
to show a ticket, how IL should be worked
to indicate a cash fare and how the trip
reports should be made out. in the mean
time teaching him the names of the streets
ard when to call them. on the next trip the
understudy thought he had learned his
part so well he asked permission to run
the car himself under supervision. The old
conductor watched the new man collect the
fares and saw that he missed a number.
When he returned TO the rear of the car he
was Informed that he was five short-that
there were thirty passengers and he had
collected only twenty-five fares. Without
waiting for further advice the new man
put his head in the door of the car and
shouted
A who have not paid their fares will
please stand uD."
Not a passenger moved. Perhaps they
were too amazed-probably as much as
tonished as the old conductor. The silence
was becoming almost painful. Finally a
suburbanite nudged his neighbor and asked
him why he didn't stand up.
Cant lie" was the reply. I'm honest.
Paid my fare"
BY this time the humor Of the situation
began TO dawn on the other passengers.
The men laughed and the women smiled
all except five girls in the front part Of the
car. who were so busy talking they had not
heard the new conductors "stand-up' or
der nor witnessed what followed. One of
the girls had a bunch OF transfer tickets
partly concealed in a glove. The old conduc-
tor knew where the missing fares were
and had intended TO tell the new man. but
the latter did not give him time. The in
cident was ended by the old conductor
walking to the laxative girls and saying
Fares, please as if nothing had hap
pened. The transfers were SURRENDERED
without the girls knowing an attempt had
been made TO introduce an innovation in
street-car ethics.
