New York, Sept. ao,--An autopsy was
performed yesterday on the body of
James Graft, who was murdered early
Saturday in the Empire cafe, in Twenty
ninth street, but the surgeon, il was an
nounccd, had not been able to determine
whether or not there were traces Of chic
raj or other poison in the stomach. A
chemical analysis of the contents will be

of interest is whether or not knockout
drops had been given Mr.. Graft before he
was attacked with the clcavcr

stomach the police asserted this would
show a plot to rob the victim. Mrs. Craft,

Sever al days ago the car men met and
declared the strike off, although boycott
of the Central Labor Union has never
been lifted. This afternoon, after
lengthy session the strikers declared
they would fight the company as body.
This was because of the fact that Gen
eral Manager Johnston, of the Railway
Company. refused to put back to work
the men whose names were submitted TO
him several days ago.
The officials of the car company de-
clare they will not give in, and if the
strike in Richmond is on trouble will fol-
low.
Mullen, Secretary of the Richmond
Trades and Labor Council, has been
here two days, he coming to bring finan-
cial support to the strikers. He adj
dressed the strikers this afternoon and
gave them many words of encourage
ment. The strike here only affects about
zoe employees, but three times that num-
Der will be called out in Richmond if the
words of Secretary Mullen arc true. Mr..
Mullen was formerly President of the

inent IN labor circles. The strikers have
