SAYS STRIKERS
ARE RETURNING
To THEIR WORK

Schenectady. y. Y. Dec. 12-The second
day OF the strike at the plant of the Cen
eral Electric company was ushered In
with statement from General Manager
Emmons OF the company, 20 the effect
that many members Of the Industrial
Workers of the World. the labor organiza-
ton which ordered the strike, were re-
turning TO work.
The strike leaders. however. declared
there have been no desertons from their
ranks. While the strikers say that 5000
men arc out. semi-official figures from the
company place the number at about 2oo0.
There are many evidences that the COM
pany considers the backbone Of the strike
broken. The American Federation Of
Labor a rival organization of the Indus
trial Workers, has remained neutral.
There has been no disturbance Of any kind
thus far.

IMPLICATED IN

In spite Of the persistent questioning OF
the flrebug suspects by Capt. OF Detec-
tlves Cannon. IL has been found that in
no way can either Patrick Duffy or Eu-
gene Warren be proved to have been i'm
plcated In the recent incendiary fires
Duffys statements have been substan-
tiated; and the only fact against him,
which he admitted is that he tried 10

His explanation OF this is satisfactory,
however; and he will he released.
The police are convinced beyond doubt
that Eugene Warren is mentally unbal-
naced and for his own welfare should be
confined where he could receive proper
treatment.
He has talked in such n rambling fash
ion and his action have been OF such sim
pie nature that Captain Cannon has de-
cided to arraign him in court tomorrow on
a charge OF Insanity.
