RUMCR OF n FIGHT
WITH EMPLOYERS

Reports which have been circulated pretty
freely throughout the city during the past
week state that an attack on organized
labor is TO be made by the employers OF
furniture factories and that the point OF
attack is TO be the woodworkers. The fight
has started in indianapolis, and according
to the firm that has taken the offensive. IL
Will be carried throughout the country
Labor leaders believe that the EMPLOYERS
Association is behind the movement and
that the woodworkers have been selected
for the attack for the reason that they are
at present involved in many Jurisdictionai
fights and are consequently weaker than the
majority of unions The local unfon -
Amalgamated Woodworkers is known to
ground against the methods being adopted
by the employers
Many OF the furniture employers have
notified their men that they are going 10
change their manner of employment from
day to piece work This will mean a re-
duction for the wOodworkers as well az
an increase I'm their hours OF labor. Labor
advocates declare that IL is but a means 10
the end OF securing open shops. The wood
workers intend 10 oppose the new methods
and in every case where they are substi-
tuted they say they will go out on strike
Twenty OF them struck last week at the
factory OF the indianapolis Chair and Fur
niture Company because the cnange had
been made. Ii Is said that before many
days. all the woodworkers Of the city will
be idle.

MEASLES EPIDEMIC
Has BEEN CHECKED

A very considerable decrease in the num-
Der of cases of measles reported to the City
Health Board has been marked in the last
three days. indicating that the epidemic
has been probably effectually checked
Some one has suggested that perhaps about
all the children in Indianapolis that can
have the measles have had them, so that
the disease must stop FOR lack of material
to work on. The cases reported in the last
three days have been scarcely more than
was averaged in a single day before that
time. Reports of other contagious or in
fectious diseases show about an average
less than the average number. For the
month of January fourteen cases Of diph-
iberia have been reported, six of scarlet
fever and five of typhoid.

BOARD MUST PAY RENT
BEFORE IT BUYS LIND
Court Decides Against Agricul-
tural Board in Suit Involving
Fair Grounds Property.

According to a ruling made yesterday
morning by Judge Carter on a demurrer
filed by the defendant in the old suit of the
State Board of Agriculture against Theresa
H. Smith. the State Board is placed i'm such
a position that il will have TO pay Mrs
Smith s.. l64 rent for 134 acres of ground be
longing to her which is included in the
State fair grounds property.
About two years ago the State Board
brought suit against Mrs. Smith to compel
her TO deed the property on which the
board held an option since 1891. The board
had been renting the property from Mrs
Smith. paying the rent annually, and in
1901, one month before the close of the
year, the board wished to purchase the
property and rendered the option price of
$4,000 for the same. Mrs. Smith asked that
the rental for the eleven months be paid
before the sale. Judge Carter held that it
would be unjust to have Mrs. Smith de-
liver the deed without first receiving the
eleven months rental and sustained her de-
murrer.
