The Corvallis times. (Corvallis, Or.) 1888-1909, 1904-03-23

New York, March 2S.-Twenty
thousand bricklayers and laborers
and about 1000 ironworkers are on
strike, and unless a settlement can
be reached ut q conference today,
the strike probably will spread un-
til about 100. 600 men are involved.
The employers, considering it inn
probable that any settlement will
be reached, are preparing for the
strike which they think will follow.
Members of other, unions who
will be out of work because they
cannot proceed with building with
out the bricklayers, are said to be
indignant that the bricklayers
should tie up the whole building in
dustry.
Twenty-Five hundred lithograph-
ers have struck rather than be lock-
ed out. They quit when they found
that they must sign the arbitration
agreement or be discharged.

fathers factory last November with
two bullet wounds in his head, has
been discharged from the hospital
IN better health than ever before,
but with one of the bullets still in
his brain. The doctors succeeded in
removing one. His case attracted
much interest smong.surgeone, who
FULLY expected his death. Peters,
when found after she shooting. said
he discouered thieves in the factorp
snd was wounded by them. Lpter
he admitted having attempted sui
eide because of epileptic attacks.
These have not recurred since be
shot himself.

Washington, D. c., March 18.-
Senator Smoot has practically de-
termined to take a desperate risk in
his effort to retain bis seat in the
senate. In response to urgent ad-
vice from his republican associates
he will make spee ch in open ses-
sion in defense of his position.
Republican leaders have assured
him that this is the only means by
which he can hope to win his fight.
They. have pointed out to him that
a tremendous and widespread oppo-
sition has been awakened by the in
vestigation of his case, which can
never be overcome by evidence pre-
sented by witnesses in his behalf
before the committee.
So far as the country is concerned
they FAY, the verdict in his case
has already been rendered. This is:
Mormon hierarchy, of which Smoot
is a member has been adjudged a
foe of political and social order.
A friend of his warned him that
he must be- prepared to convince
