OPEN LETTER TO PUBLIC.
Free and Independent Labor Should
BE Given Protection

Just previous TO adjourn ent the
executive committee Of tho Citizens
Industrial Association which recently
assembled at Dayton, Ohio, resolved
against members placing the union
label on articles Of their own manu-
facture. They also took ground in OPP
position to the ciEht-hour bill now
pending in Congress- They provided
for the formation Of a Labor informa-
ton bureau for the use Of m. mbers. A
platform was adopted as ar open let
ter to- the public which say:
THE present condition o. industries
has become so deplOrable by reason Of
indefensible methods and claims Of Or
ganized labor that the time has come
when the deploying interests and good
citizenship Of the country must take
immediate and effective measures to
reafilrm aud enforce those fundamcn-
tai principles OF American govern
ment guaranteeing free competitive
conditions.
'ln it's demands organized labor is
seeking to overthrow individual liber-
~ and property rights, the principal
props OF our government. It's methods
for securing this revolutionary and So
clalistic change in our institutions are
also those of physical warfare. Be-
cause OF this warfare the industrial in
terests OF the nation during the last
year have been injured to an irgepara-
bic degree. Many firms have been
driven to bankruptcy and the cases are
innumerable In which working men
have been disabled and even murdered
while numerous families have been
rendered destitute by reason Of the
tyranny and seditious attacks upon So
ciety by the strike organizations. A
condition of anarchy has existed con-
tinuously in some States for months
past, and in fact, the acts of lawless-
ness committed under the sacred name
Of labor are Of such frequent recur-
renee that the public sense of their
enormity has become blunted. The
period of great prosperity brought
about by the unrestricted operation of
the law of supply and demand is also
being destroyed by the acts of violence
OF organized labor and as n result we
ore now confronted with the possibility
of period of depression.
while we most Cmphatically OBJ

organizations of labor that are con-

lines, yet we are unalterably opposed
to the present programme of violence,
boycotting and the tyranny now be-
ing carried out by the majority of Ia
Dor uniOns.We, therefore, urge the
rapid organization of those who be-
lieve in the fairtcnance of law and
order and the perpctuation OF our
free institutions to the end that they

ence upon the destinies of the nation.
IL is only through the machinery Of
organization that We can hope to ex-
ercise a potent and salutary influence
over public thought and the conduct
OF public officials to the end that the
rights of the American citizenship
can be assured to free and indepen-
dent labor, the rights of property pro-
tected and legislation of n socialistic
nature prevented from being enact.

A Toll Christmas Tree.

10000 TOYS.

Probably the largest Christmas tree
to be seen in London nowadays says
Golden Penny, is that which is erected
annually at the Crystal Palace. Our
photograph conveys very good idea
Of this interesting monster. The one
seen in the photograph is sixty feet
high. After the tree is securely dashed
into an upright position three or four
days are occupied in, trimming it with
numerous toys. 1t is estimated that
some Of the bigger trees have carried

Of the tree, just under the glass roof,

SEVEN MEN WHO HAVE BEEN IN

Reason Advanced by Judge Afford for
His Action-Other News of the
Local Courts.

Seven OF the ghouls who were under in
dictment for their connection with the

the Criminal Court docket for about eight
months and Judge Afford said the expense
TO the county was too great to feed them
longer.

Garfield Bucker. William McElroy, all
charged with taking and concealing body
for the purpose OF dissection. and George
Mason charged with disturbing a grave.
With the exception OF McEndree and
Mason, all OF the men are negroes
While the cases against the men have
not been dismissed. II is not likely they will
ever be brought to trial. as the evidence
against them is not strong enough to Sc
cure conviction. being simply the uncor-
roborated confession Of Rufus Cantrell.
When the men left the courtroom they
stood on the steps OF the courthouse I'M
decided just what to do. Finally the ne
groes started north on Delaware street
McEndree and Mason followed closely.
Daniels left last night for Atlantic City,
his home.
The indictments against the doctors who
were implicated IN the ghoul scandals still
stand. and the bonds will continue in the
hands OF the sheriff until three terms of
court have passed, when they viii expire.
In addition 10 the seven ghOuls who were
released yesterday five have been convicted
Rufus Cantrell received a sentence OF from
three TO fourteen years, Sam Martin got
from three TO ten. and Sol Grady, Isom
Donnell and William Jones were each
sentenced 10 from one to three years.
Ollie Sanders, who was implicated In the
murder OF Doc Lung, the Chinese laundry
man, and who turned States evidence III
the case of MIN Davidson and James An
dxews. who were convicted, was also re-
leased yesterday.

Well as the white doctors implicated in the
matter No one doubts this who knows
anything about the vigorous prosecution OF
DR.. Alexander. III was only after the
hands OF the States attorneys were tied
by the refusal of CantrelI and the
rest OF the negroes to, testl1y
that the matter was allowed to go over.
1t Is impossible to convict a man IL there
Is no evidence against him. The ghouis

ARTHUR SIMPSON TRIAL.


IN the Criminal Court the trial of Arthur
Simpson. formerly bookkeeper for Warman,
Black, Chamberlain & Co., charged with
forgery. is taking more time than was ex-
pected. The attorneys in the case were
anxious for the judge to adjourn at noon,
but the court said the case had been de-
layed for almost a year and must be nm
fshed soon possible.
At the conclusion of the examination of
Edward +. Hedges, an expert accountant,
yesterday morning, the state rested its
case. In the afternoon the defendant took
the stand and endeavored to explain, the
alleged errors found by the expert who had
gone over his books. His testimony was
not concluded when court adjourned at B
o'clock. The defense will claim that the
alleged forged drafts were drawn on the
sfrm to bolster up their credit by ar
rangement with the bank TO allow over
drafts; also that the firm received all the
benefit of the money and that the defend
ant used none OF the firms money.
The trial is not expected to take much
longer.
