DIVISION AMONG
THE DUTCH STRIKERS
Some Say Quit, but Most Persevere in
Staying Out.

AMSTERDAM. April 10.-The work.
mems defense committee today decided
to proclaim a cessation of the general
strike. The strike was never really
effective.
At a large mass meeting held later
the Federated Trades union repudiated
the action of the workmens defense
committee and decided to continue the
strike without the consent of the COM
mittee. The tumult prevented the
members of the defense committee
from securing a hearing. With the ex-
ception of the diamond cutters. all the
men will remain out.
The workmen's defense committee
has issued a manifesto explaining that
a continuance of the strike will only
expose the strikers to the vigorous
penalties Of the new anti-strike bill,
which has practically become law. The
committee has therefore decided to
leave each trade union free to act as 1t
thinks best.
The calling off of the strike has re-
suited in the holding of angry mass
meetings of strikers. The anarchists
and socialists are exploiting the situ-
alton, urging the men to ignore the
committee and continue the strike.
The men are inclined to follow this
course, finding themselves confronted
by dismissal and too deeply committed
to withdraw. Some rioting occurred
at the gas works tonight, the police
charging a mob of strikers who wera

SCANDAL IN CUBA
MAY COME TO LIGHT
Exorbitant Charges for Disinterment
and Shipment of Soldiers Bodies.

TOLEDO, Ohio, April 10.-Congress-
man j. H. Southard, of this city, has
started an investigation which may
bring to light a scandal among United
States officials at Havana, Cuba. The
charge is that eXorbitant charges are
being made for the disinterment and
shipment of the bodies of soldiers from
Cuba, when 1t should be done free Of
cost, according to Mr.. Southard.
Homer Pugh, who enlisted in the
navy last August, died at Havana
April 2. His mother here was notified
April Z. Two days later she received
a cablegram stating that the body
would be eXhumed, embalmed and

mother brought the matter to the at
tention of Congressman Southard, who
has started an investigation. The dis
patches received here are signed

Special to The (.obe
WASHINGTON, D. c., April TO-
Attorney General Knox, Special Attor-
ney w. A. Day and other officials of
the department of justice, who We're
concerned in the suit brought by the
government to prevent the merger of
the Northern Pacific and Great North
ern railroads, are elated over the de-
cision of the United States circuit
court. They believe the government
has been strengthened immensely in
its determination to regulate the trusts.
This case has been regarded by the de-
partment of justice as the most i'm
portant under the anti trust law.
The officials seem TO have no doubt
that if the case is taken to the su-
preme court of the United States on
appeal that tribunal will sustain the
decision of the lower court. 1t is so
unusual for four judges to agree on
question of great moment that the
unanimity Of the four United States
judges who heard the Northern Sc
curities case is considered very sig
nificant. This is especially so, as three
of the judges have had long experience
on the bench and are jurists whose
opinions always have great weight,
while the fourth, though a young
judge, has a reputation for deep learn
ing in the law.
Other Movements in Allegiance.
AS the financiers concerned in the
Northern Securities merger have other
meager plans of similar character
which have been held up While the suit
to enjoin the securities company from
voting the stock of the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific was being con-
sidered, it is considered probable that
they are anxious for an early settle
ment of the case. If the supreme court
Eustains the decision of the lower court
r serious setback will be given to the
merging of other great transportation
lines. Such a decision would be a Sc
we're blow also to those planning mo-
nOpolies of interstate commerce.
Under the new law the attorneys for
the Northern Securities company have
sixty days in which to file their ap-
peal with the supreme court The last
day will be June s, or a week after the
court will have adjourned for the sum-
mer If the attorneys for the merger
desire to delay settlement of the issue
they will postpone filing their appeal
until the last moment, that the su-
preme court may not have an opportu-
nifty to fix an early day for the hear
ing. If, however, the appeal is filed
before the supreme court adjournS for
its summer recess, the case will be ar
gued early in October, a motion to ad-
vance being made by the attorney
general. Otherwise it cannot be heard
before the first week in December. In
that case the decision cannot be hand
ed down before the end of February.

PLOT AGAINST THE LIFE
OF KING ALEXANDER
Discovery Thereof fastened His Re-
Recent Coup d'Etat.

VIENNA, April 10.--The rumors cur
rent of a plot against the life of King
Alexander Of Servia received apparent
confirmation in private dispatches re-
ceived at Budapest, and according to
which an attack on the kings life was
planned for next Sunday. The plot was
discovered and fifty persons suspected
of completely therein were arrested.
Other arrests are expected.
Semi official reports from Belgrade
declare that these ruInors are false, but
1t is thought here that King Alexan-
der's recent coup d'etat was hastened
by the discovery of the alleged plot.

is A Birdie A PORTION
OF THE HARNESS
Question That Causes a Strike Unset
tied, Though the Strike Ends.

JOHNSTOWN, Pa, April 10 The
LOO miners employed by the Beech
Creek Coal and Coke company, at Pat
ton, this county, who went on strike
recently, will return to work tomor-
row. The question as to whether a
bride constitutes a portion Of the har-
ness, which caused the strike, remains
unsettled. The executive board of
District No. 2, United Mine Workers,
In session at Clearfield, was unable to
decide the question, and finally recon-
mended that the mules be driven with
out bride. This was satisfactory to
the company, and in the future the
company will harness and unharness
the mules, but the brides will be dis
pensed with.
The men anticipate some trouble in
handling the animals without the head
gear, but say they will attempt it rath-
er than go back on their contention
that it is a part of the harness.

WHATS THE DIFFERENcE?"
This Question Is Propounded by Vice
President Lamont

NEW YORK, April 1O.-Daniel S.
Lamont, director of the Northern Sc.
curities and vice president of the
Northern Pacific, said today that as
long as the railroads affected by the
decision in the Northern Securities
case had never lost their identity, even
if the decision were made final by the
higher court, little difference would
result.
The same men who own and con-
troll the Northern Securities own and
control the Northern Pacific, the Chi
cago, Burlington & Quincy and the
Great Northern. What's the differ
ence? The Northern Securities COM
pany simply made it easier for those
men to run the roads,"

Representative Nyquist yesterday
morning spoiled a neat little plan by
which Executive Agent Fullerton evil
IDENTIFY expected to put the house in a
hole and relieve himself of the neces-
sity of complying with the house de-
mand for a detailed financial report.
Thursday morning Chief Clerk
Schmahl received a letter from Fuller
ton, in which the latter begged that
the house would not compel him to
furnish the report. and suggested that
the special committee would hunt IN
the desired information from his rec
ords. This letter was printed I'm the
mouse Journal for Thursday and ap-
proVal of the journal would indirectly
nave given the houses sanction to Full
lertOn's request
1t was a clever scheme, but did not
catch Nyquist mapping. When the
usual motion for approval of the jour
nal was made Nyquist objected and
had the Fullerton letter expunged from
the records. He said:
Nyquist Was Alert.
Il don't see why the game warden
hasn't time to make a report. as asked
by the house. and we should not have
any such letter as this on record. He
