EXCHANGE WILL
SUPPORT HAGLIN
ISSUE is JOINED IN BUILDING
TRADE TROUBLE.
Both Sides Declare That the Preser-
walton of Principle Is the Only Mo-
tive Prompting Recent Actions
Situation Perplexing One on Ac-
cvOunt of Its Possibilities.

The issue is Joined in the building
labor situation. Yesterday afternoon
the Builders and Traders exchange
voted unanimously to sustain G.. F.
Haglin, the contractor, In his position.
The Building Trades council has called
off union men employed by Mr.. Hag
lin and the leaders say they will take
the same action in the case Of any
union contract who may attempt to
finish Haglin contracts.
Both sides maintain a waiting atti-
tude. Neither seems to desire to
precipitate trouble. Personalities ap-
pear to be barred and preservation Of
principle is the only motive in
evidence.
The exchange has not announced
how it is prepared to sustain Mr.. Hag-
lin. It is evident, however, that the
builders and traders have determined
what they will do under certain cir
cumstances.
The master builders, at their first
meeting following the Chicago meet
ing, disavowed any fight for the open
shop" so that It is currently under
stood that when they take action, If
any, it will be in the nature of a lock-
out. In fact, a builder has said that
II It became necessary to train a new
set of mechanics, they would do so.
Mr.. Haglin and his contracts alone
are involved to-day. Inc trouble may
spread as from time to time union
subcontractors attempt to finish Hag-
lin contracts, when union men on
such jobs will be ordered out.
The Building Trades council Is per-
fectly willing Mr.. Haglin should work
with nonunion men, but says his
crews must be absolutely nonunion.
Tomorrow Mr.. Haglin will begin
brick and stone laying on the Orphe-
UNI theater. To-day he resumed con-
struction of the Keitht building on
Hennepin avenue, and is continuing
work on the Wells home, the storm
center. It is said, in the Haglir
office, that more carpenters present
themselves than can be placed, but
at the council headquarters 1t is
averred that all resident carpenters
are nthe union, and that the men are
to a large extent "fioaters" who come
to town for summer Jobs.
It is thought that the rub will come
when it is time to plaster, as it is
claimed that the plasterers all belong
to the union and that this condition
will make it impossible for any non
union contractor to push his con.
tracts beyond the plastering stage.

nine NOLLES ARE
SLATED FOR AMES
SINGLE REMAINING CASE WILL
GO OVER TERM.
This Is the Probable Program in the
Prosecution of the Former Mayor
The Defense Plan of Habeas Cor
pus in Supreme Court Has Been
Blocked.

Former Mayor A. A. Ames will
probably not be tried next week. The
case in which he is charged with re-
ceiving a $40 bride from Bessie Lee
will probably be continued over the
term and all of the other nine indict-
ments now standing against him
nolled.
DR.. Ames' attorneys urged an I'M
mediae trial, but it Is limited that they
are not extremely averse to contin-
uance. County Attorney f. H. Board
man said this morning that the Bessie
Lee case would probably be reset for
rext Monday and that he would be
ready to proceed with the trial at
that time.
But the Jail cases take precedence
on the criminal calendar and with one
manslaughter and numerous other
cases waiting, the men actually in
prison cannot be disposed Of before
the end Of the term. For that reason
Judge Elliott, in charge Of the Grim
inal calendar, will not be able to take
up the Ames case again this term and
so stated this morning.
The only thing left Is to secure an
other judge to take charge of DR..
Ames' third trial. Each Of the other
judges has enough civil business to
Occupy his time for the rest of the
term.
DR.. Ames' lawyers will undoubtedly
ask a nolle for the other indictments
if the case goes over the term, and
owing to former continuances, the
motion will have to be granted.
1t Is rumored that the defense is
preparing little coup In the way OF
habeas corpus proceedings. by which
it is hoped to bring directly before
the supreme court their contention
that DR.. Ames cannot be legally tried
on the Bessie Lee indictment, owing
to his plea Of former jeopardy.
The plan is for the Ames bondsmer
to surrender their principal, who will
then promptly apply for writ OF
habeas corpus on the ground that he
is unlawfully held owing to former
jeopardy on the same charge.
In case the write is issued, the
question would be argued in the dis
trict court and If decided against the
defendant, an appeal would be taker
and heard Immediately by the SUI
preme court.
If a writ is denied the defendan
will apply to the supreme court ant
the argument heard there first hand

THREE RAIDS
WITHIN WEEK
Masked Robbers Hold Up Law
renee Tuscany's Saloon on
North Side.

Excitement is at its highest pitch
at police headquarters over the re-
peated operations Of q gang Of hold
up men who make a speciality Of sa-
looms in the thinly settled districts.
The third raid within a week was
made last night. Three masked men
held up the saloon Of Lawrence Tus-
cany, 622 Eleventh avenue N, and
took $50 out of the cash drawer Sew
eral detectives are detailed on the case
but have been unable to find any clue
Of the highwaymen.
Shortly before midnight the men
entered the saloon. All customers had
gone. At the point Of revolvers they
compelled the bartender to turn over
all the cash in the place. The utter
disregard shown for the possibility Of
any ones entering the saloon while
they were at work showed plainly
that fourth member of the gang was
waiting outside. After securing all
the cash they quickly disappeared.
The night of May II a gang held
up Christ Nelson's saloon, 328 Elev-
enth avenue S, and secured SIS. Tues
day night Pearson & Johnson's saloon
1928 University avenue NE, was
robbed of over 500.

they had taken the goods without au-

night. He became involved in fight

at the mercy Of his antagonists when
Patrolmen Maloney and Roney entered

thereupon began fighting the policemen.
The officers kept a grip on their pris-
oner, and the crowd outside, seeing the
blood flowing from his face, thought they
were responsible for it. crowd fol-
lowed the officers, making threats. Aune
pleaded guilty this morning to drunken
ness and his sentence was $40 or ten days.

SHOT TO SCARE HUBBY
He Was Arrested, but His Wife Promptly
Cleared Him.

Erick Fink, recently arrived Dane,
thinks American justice is all right, as he
was tried and acquitted in less than two
minutes in police court to-day of charge
of discharging firearms inside the city
limits
Fink had trouble with his wife last
night and an officer heard a pistol shot
in the alley. He ran in and found Fink
voicing his opinions rather vehemsntly
and pistol lying on the ground. Fink
was at once arrested and the wife agreed
to appear against him in court.
She went on the stand and when asked
if she heard shot she said she certainly
did, for she fired it herself. She did it,
she said, to scare Erick, who was prompt
ly dismissed.
