in a Fight to
Finish.

Chicago. Nov. 7.-Seven hundred rub
Der workers employed by the Morgan &
Wright company Of this city went on a
strike to-day In what is regarded as a
fight to the finish between union labor
and what is known as the rubber trust.
The recognition of the union is the OBJ
jective point in the walk-out. The rub
Der workers claim that the trust Is en-
deavoring to break up the union and are
prepared to resist any effort in that d.
rection.
The Steam Power Council, which en-
braces the 1remen, engineers and team
sters, held conference to-day to deter
mine what action should be taken in the
case, but the result Of the conference is
not known. Business Agent Lee Fisher
of the Machinists' union said that If the
council took favorable action, all the ma
chinists will also be called out. Presi-
dent Albert Young Of the Transfers Ma
tional union, when interviewed on the
subject, said:
.'The fight Of the rubber men is on,
fight, too, and we will fight the trust t.

WAGES ARE HIGH ENOUGH
The Government Coal Arbitrator in
France Make a Decision for
Another District.

Paris, Nov 1.-THE government arbi-
ira tors to-day announced their decision
against increasing the wages Of the strik-
ing miners in the Department Du Nord.
The ground Of the decision are similar to
those in the Pas de Calais arbitration.
namely that wages are proportionate to
the selling price of coal. The large COM
panies in the Nord have agreed to estab-
lish pensions for a term Of five years.
At Lens there was clash to-day be-
tween strikers and cavalry, the former
throwing bricks at the soldiers.
Gendarmes who interviewed were also as
saulted with bricks. One soldier was in
jured and three arrests were made.
Throughout the Pas de Calais coal dis
trict the strikers are making noisy demon
STATIONS.
Later details Of the rioting reported
from Lens show that a lively melee be-
tween cavalry and strikers occurred ir
the neighboring town Of Amin. Lieuten'
ant Duval was struck in the breast will
a brick, two other officers were hit. Only
the arrival Of reinforcenlents of gel
darmes dispersed the strikers.

partment has discontinued the acceptance
of state and municipal bonds as security
for government deposits. Transactions

Mr. Lind has failed to show that the Times

but he made faces at me. anyhow"
The faces that Governor Lind made
are. Of course, irrelevant to the current
case. They are promptly objected to by
Mr. Lind's attorneys and are as promptly
ruled out by Judge Holt. Yet Attorney
Jackson never fails to argue each attempt
ed point so fully that he brings all the
desired information before the jury. Then,
while addressing the court, he reiterates
that the jury must interpret both the law
and the fact. At, one time Mr.. Jackson

had carefully read the details of the for

The questions of the assistant attorney
tended to show that an effort would be
made to prove insanity or delusion under
hysteria. 1t is also probable that an eff
fort will be made to prove an alibi for
Cornish.
A clerk in a drug store testified that he
had sold bromo settler to Cornish; also
to Mrs. Rogers. Miss Miller the clerk In
the store where the bottleholder was pur.
chased. testified that she sold the holder
late in the evening. Her evidence was
corroborated by man who was in the
store at the time. Miss Miller positively
swore that the man who bought the holder
was not MOlineuX.
