SUSPENSION ILLEGAL
Suspended Members of Red
Cross Society Denounce
Present Methods
ABUSES BY OLD MANAGEMENT
A Special Committee Has Been APP
pointed to Gather Facts Showing
That the Finances Have Been Col.
Iected and Discussed In an unbusi-
nesslike Manne-Letter TO Phillips.

Washington, April 2S.-The twenty
three suspended members of h Ma
tional Red Cross Society nav issued to
the public q statement showing the le-
gal status, as they view it, of the ex-
ecutive committee of the society which
suspended them. In addition the meet
ing appointed a special committee, con-
|sisting of Simon Wolf. Former Secre-
tary of the Navy Hilary A. Herbert
Miss Mabel T. Boardman, Mrs. j. Ellen
Foster and B. H. Warner, to colate all
the facts at their command to show the
abuses thai have beer practiced by
the old management anu the unbusi-
nesslike manner in which the finances
have been collected and disbursed." An
other statement embodying the results
of this special committees work will be
made public later. Yesterdays state-
ment begins by announcing that the
following letter a been sent to Mr..
Walter II. Phillips:
"Sir: The undersigned members of
AAlC @NctlAOAbdl 1NG0 SIOSSs ~ SiiioWS W
your notification of thar suspension,
deny your legal power or authority to
suspend them"
This letter, as well as the general
public statement, which is quite elabo-
rate. is signed by the twenty-three sus-
pended members. They deny the au-
thority of Mr.. Phillips committee to
act, and say that committee is proceed
ing under bylaws Illegally adopted, and
which bylaws contravene the Charter
of the society by providing in their
very first article and section that the
annual meeting of the American Red
Cross shall be held each year, the time
and place to be determined by the ex-
ecutiye COMMITTEE" whereas Washing
ton is the proper meeting place, and
that the new by-laWs violate the pur-
pose and intent OF the charter granted
by congress in that they constitute a
system which inyades the chartered
rights IL it does not practically disfran-
chise all the members of the association
except the committees; aud, as n per-
son may serve on several COMMITTEES. 1t
is in the power OF the president to com-
init all the real power of the corporation
into the hands OF less than one-tenth
of the membership
The members deny the charge that in
their efforts to effect a reorganization
of the association along businesslike
methods they are attacking Miss Clara
Barton.
In conclusion the statement says:
Unless present methods are ADAM
doned the society can not retain public
confidence. which is essential to its suc-
cess. For making such a protest to
congress, and or that alone, twenty
three OF US have been suspended by a
committee Of which three, or on occa-
sion two, may constitute a quorum,
This is the contamination to which
these new bylaws haze led"

Disaffection Among Interna.
tional Harvester Company
Employees Spreading
UNION MEN WE'RE DISCHARGED
Discrimination Is Charged Against the
Company and a Tie-up of the Entire
Plant Is Threatened-The Bulk Of the
Discharges. Were From the Deerins
Plant

Chicago, April 2S.-Two thousand
workers in the Deering plant of the In
%ternational Harvester Company went
on strike yesterday and last night, and
the disaffection is spreading until 1t
threatens to tie up the entire plant. Six
policemen stood guard at each entrance
to the works last night, and the night
force Of Irvine girls, 200 In number re-
fused 10 go to work, and declared they
would stand out with the men employees
until the trust was ready to recognize
labor unions.
At the Mccormick plant of the trust
lit was reported last night that 500 metal
workers had gone on strike and that
all the engineers and fremen We're out
and half the plant closed down.. Cots
are being placed in the Mccormick
plant and indications point to the trust
being ready to make a determined
stand against the e-ncroachment of the
labor unions.
The plants of the harvester company
have always been n%on-union until re-
Gently, when many OF the mechanics
secretly joined the unions of their re-
lspective crafts.
At the Deering plant Superintendent
Chris Borg, has been d~ischarging men
las fast as he found out they had join
ed a union. A shop committee waited
on him yesterday to make a protest
against the alleged discrimination. The
lcommittee was promptly discharged,
land as the members walked out other
workmen followed. They, kept going
out all the afternoon, and last night 1t
was said thai fully 1000 had struck.
The men held an enthusiastic meet
ling at Social Turner hall, Belmont ave-
nue. and Paulina street last night.
They were addressed by M. j. Deutcsh,
and c. b. Meyers, OF the organization
committee Of the Building Material
Trades Council, and hundreds made
application to join the respective unions
OF their trade.
The large hall was crowded. both on
the main floor and the galleries, and
quite a number of the girls employed
lin the Irvine department We're among
the crowd. A delegation of girls who
work on the night shift, and who went
ON strike las night, appeared in the
hall and told the men to stand for
unionism and the girls would be with
them. The statement of the girls was
received with prolonged cheering.
The men who are on strike comprise
machinists, metal workers, blacksmiths
woodworkers, painters, Irvine workers,
and, in fact, every branch within the
big plant. There are about 5000 m
ployes in the Deering plant, altogether,
and the striking workmen declared that
most of them would be out in a day Or
two.
The principal grievance now alleged
by the workmen is the discrimination
of the superintendent against union
men. They claim that they u be
conceded the right to organize before
lthey return to work, n the fight pro-
mises to be a bitter one. The firm
says that only a few workmen have quit
work and that the trouble is not SER
Iious. but the sentiment among the men
last night was one of fight.

Little Stories Of Big Men.

Major Pitcher, who is superintendent
of Yellowstone park and has the presi-
dent in charge, was in command OF the
regulars who accompanied General
Brooke to Porto Rico. When h trans
port Massachusetts went ashore he
showed the volunteers how to work
twenty-four hours a day for a week.
The quartermaster's department gave
up for lost every mount on the ship.
Pitcher got every horse ashore alive
and sound, but so thin and weak that
not one in twenty could stand on Its
feet for days. Pitcher is a Sandow
and can lick any mar in the army,
catch-as-catch-can, knock-down-and-
drag-out or any other way. On the
frontier his clothes fit him like an
Indian trapper's. In Washington. where
he was once an ornament of h White
House, he is a bowling swell.
John Dillon, who has been ordered
to abandon public life for a season ana
withdraw to the warmer climate OF
Egypt, had once before, in the early
sos, to retire from Parliament for a
prolonged period owing to I'LL health.
He then spent a couple of years on his
brothers ranch in Colorado. Attic
born a British subject himself, the
member for East Mayo is in the curious
position of having an only brother,
William Dillon, who is a born American
citizen. The explanation is that their
father, the late John Blake Dillon, was
one of the leaders of the AS insurrect-
ion in Ireland, and, unlike most of his
colleagues in that revolutionary enter
prise, succeeded in eluding he Irish
police and escaping to America In the
disguise of a priest. He remained In
exile for some years, and it was during
this period that his son William was
born. William Dillon is the author of
"a Life of John Mitchell" the fiery
spirit who precipitated the AS rebellion
and received a sentence of fourteen
years transportation.

The minister explains that the first
part of his name, Chentung, cores
