Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
MUNCIE, Ind, Sept. I2.-Secretary Leo
pold Mambourg, of the Federation Win
dow Glass Company, announced this morn
ing that he would file to-day or tomorrow
in behal of the Federation Company affi-
davits against Louis Toussaint and four
other members of the Mississinewa Window
Glass Company, of Wheeling. Ind, charg-
ing them with embezzlement and grand
larceny.
The charges are the outgrowth of the
alleged sale of ware by the Mississinewa
Company to certain jobbing companies,
in alleged violation of the company's con-
tract with the Federation to sell all win
dow glass TO the latter. The Federation
holds a two-year lease on the Mississinewa
Company's plant and owns the warehouses.
1t will be charged that members of the
Mississinewa Company sold glass to job
bling firms and received money for the
product when this ware had been previously
bought and paid for by the Federation; the
Mississinewa Company being thus placed
in the position of selling the same goods
twice.
Judge Joseph LETTER, of the Delaware
Circuit Court, yesterday issued a restrain
ing order to prevent the MissisSinewa Com
pany selling any window glass except to
the Federation pending the settlement of
the case. Toussaint is president of the
MissisSinewa Company and Justin Faivre,
of Anderson, general manager.

OUTPUT OF ANTHRACITE.


PHILADELPHIA, Sept. R.-Anthracite
coal to the amount of 100, 400 tons was pro-
duced during August. which is about the
same as the previous month, but as COM
pared with August. 1902. when the coal
strike was in progress. it is an increase of
4,S3S, 626 tons. For the eight months of the
calendar year the shipment has been AZ. 49,
$40 tons, an increase over the same period
last year of 1S,O46.O 600 tons. This increase
far exceeds any heretofore made in the
anthracite coal trade. According to officials
OF the coal companies no material reduction
in output will be made during the present
month.
Vice President Henderson of the Reading
company stated that no orders have been
issued to shut down colleries. Only one
Reading colliery is idle and that one for re-
pairs.
According to well-informed coal men
the idea that there has been an overpro-
duction of coal is erroneous. The brief
period of dullness which the companies
have been experiencing has been due TO
shifting in the season when coal bins are
filled. Fearing another outbreak in the
anthracite fields the consumer purchased
his supply in the spring instead of the later
summer months, as had been usual prior TO
the strike. During the past week there has
been a noticeable Improvement in the de-
mand for coal.

AUTO RAN INTO A FENCE
FRANK DAY KILLED WILL DRIV-
ING BARNEY OLDFIELD's MACHINE.
Man-kiIIer That Injured It's Owner
in Detroit Last Week-Accident
Witnessed by 5000 Persons

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Sept. 12.-Frank
Day, of Detroit, was killed in an automobile
accident at the State fair grounds to-day
while driving Barney Oldfield's machine in
a five-mile race against time. Day had COW
cred about four miles of the distance, when
on reaching the head of the home stretch
the machine, running sixty miles an hour,
swerved, ran into a fence and toppled over.
As the machine upset Day received a ter
rife knock on the back of the head, which
rendered him unconscious. He died in fiji
teen minutes without regaining conscious
ness.
The accident was witnessed by 1900 per-
sons, among whom were many women. Sew
eral of the women tainted and pandemo-
mum reigned for a few minutes.
Day was twenty-five years old. He came
to take the place of Barney Oldfeld, who
was unable to fill his engagement because
e ee Was in 'h} tbe week le AN T6e machine IN eet Was
wrecked. 1t is said to hold all records from
one to ten miles.
The accident came so quick that no one
is able to explain its cause. The theory of
the machine owners is that the track was
in bad condition and that the wheel struck
a post. Attention was called to the condi-
ton of the track by Edward Huff, a chauf-
feur, who rode Friday afternoon. Huff re-
fused to take a machine on the track to-
day, and warned Day., his racing partner,
that the track was not safe for speed trials.
DETROIT, Sept. 12.-Frank Day, who was
killed in an automobile accident at Milwau-
kee to-day, was not a resident of Detroit.
He came from Columbus, o., recently and
entered the employment of Tom Cooper as
a chauffeur. Days first attempt at automo-
bile racing was made last Wednesday after
noon on the same day that j.. +. Shearer
was killed by Barney Oldfield's machine.
COLUMBUS, o., Sept. Frank Day,
who was killed in an accident at
Milwaukee to-day, was the son of Maj.
James T.. Day, of this city, agency director
of the New York Life Insurance Company.
Day entered the race against the wishes of
his parents. He telegraphed them to-day
asking permission to race, which they re-
fused. Young Day was about twenty-five
years of age. He had recently been en-
ployed at Cleveland.

Courts Asked by a Danbury Hat Firm
to Award $24O,OOO and 100000
Damages i'm Two Cases.
COMPLAINT OF LoEWE & co.
SAY THEY HAVE SUFFERED Heavy
FINANCIAL LOSS.
And Think the Courts should Afford
Them Relief Under the Sherman
Antitrust Law.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Sept. Fin the
United States District Court to-day ID. e.
Loewe & Co.. of Danbury, hat manufac-
turers, instituted suits against the national
officers of the American Federation of La
Dor, the national officers of the United Hat
ters of North America, and against go
members of these organizations, residents of
Danbury, who were formerly in the employ
of the plaintiffs. The plaintiffs allege that
because they refused to employ only union
labor in their factory on demand of the
union in 1901, their goods were boycotted
by the plaintiffs in the United States and
in Canada, and in 1902 the union men en-
ployed by the plaintiffs were called on
strike. Damages of $4,000 are asked for
under the Sherman antitrust law. A sim
liar suit has been instituted in the Superior
Court of Fairfield county against the same
parties. In this suit damages of 500, 900
are claimed and an injunction restraining
the defendants from pursuing the boycott is
sought.
The defendants are Samuel Gompers
president of the American Federation of
Labor, and the following officers of that
organization: Frank Morrison, secretary;
John B. Lennon, treasurer; John Duncan,
John Mitchell, James O'Connel, Martin
Thomas, Thomas Kidd and Denis Hayes.

of the United Hatters of North America:

treasurer James p. Maher, and Charles j.
Barrett. Robert Person, Peter Gallagher,
John Byrne, Mark l.. White, George j.
Phillips, William Clayton, Michael Bren-
nan, Frank Keegan and Charles Morris,
directors.
The men on strike against whom the suits
are brought are members of the Danbury
local unions. In the suit brought in the Unit
ed States Circuit Court. Loewe & Co. allege
that in April. 1901, the Hatters' Union of
Danbury declared a boycott against their
goods, but did nothing else for fourteen
months because of a fight against II. II.
Roeloff q Co., of Philadelphia, and III.
Berge & Co, of Orange, n. j., hat manu-
facturers. 1t is further alleged that after
ize the factories, all the union men in the
The plaintiffs claim, further. that the
trade mark of the United Hatters of North
America employed by the defendant to
further the sale of hats made by union la
Dor TO be detrimental TO the employers of
nonunion hatters, and that the journals
of the American Federation of labor and
of the United Hatters of North America
have been used to denounce the goods of
Loewe K Co. 1t is also claimed that the
persistent circulation of charges against
the plaintiffs has prejudiced the public and
inundated wholesale dealers, with conse-
quent financial loss to the firm.
