REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Cleveland. Nov. 8--Joseph Valentine,
president Of the International Union Of
Iron Molders Of North America, was ar
rested here late this afternoon as . result
Of instructions telegraphed to Chief Keh-
Ter by Chief MillilSin Of ths Cincinnati de-
partment He anade no effort to evade
arrest, and is held at the Central Police
Station to await the arrival Of Detective
Callahan Of Cincinnati. In whose custody
he will be returned.
Valentines arrest is the result Of an In
vestigation Of the alleged plot to blow up
the Eureka and Newport foundries and
poison nonunion molders now at work at
these plants. by the wholesale. revealed
yesterday.
Five other men have already been arrest
ed In connection with the plot. and war
rants for nearly every member Of the
Molders' Union In Cincinnati have been
issued.
In the warrant for his arrest, sworn
to by President Henry Cosiger Of the Eu-
reka Foundry Company, Valentine Is for
u.ally charged with aiding and abetting
| the malicious destruction Of property Of
the value of s1oo. The destruction Of prop
erty Of the value of more than So is q
felony. and the penalty provides imprison-
| ment from two to seven years upon con-
yictfon.
A remarkable feature In connection with
the charge against Valentine Is that 3ir.
Cosiser. the plaintiff. was . personal
friend OF the accused.
Valentine addressed meeting Of mold
ers tonight and his arrest did not inter-
fere with these plans. Marched to the
hall between two policemen. who also oc-
cupied q seat on the stage behind him.
Valentine addressed q large crowd Of
union men
SPEAKS TO LARGE CROWD.
His arrest. and the fact that he was
guarded by policemen while speaking.
| drew an unusually large crowd to the hall.
I Valentine said: II most emphatically
deny that have had anything to do with
any plot. and further do not believe
| that any such plot existed. do not see
how anyone can connect me with such
| plot, but I presume that I am named In
! the warrant, as I have been In injunctions
issued by the courts. because I am the
| head of the organization
II have always been an opponent OF vio-
! lence. in common with the other leaders
OF the organization. 1t never wins and
/ always makes the worst sort OF trouble.
( I will return TO Cincinnati and face these
! foolish charges
| Mrs Valentine declares that her hus-
bands arrest is persecution. She said:
! My husband told me only a few DAYS
! ago that he met Secretary Waltz Of the
/ Employers Association at the Gibson
| House three months ago, and that Waltz
| told him he would railroad him to Jail. Ny
/ husband knows him and had talk with
| him that day when the threat was made"
| Valentines friends in Cincinnati have
| arranged for bond for him. and as soon
| as he appears he will be released. Gin

enemies of organized labor. who are Try
