of three employees of The Jackson

have been issued by the United States
court commissioner on the charge of

sured him that the three men who are
wanted would present themselves vol.
UNFAIRLY in Pensacola on Monday and
make an appearance and give bond.
Deputy, Wolf was seen by a Journal

desire to be interviewed on his trip
further than to say that he received
very courteous treatment at the
hands of Manager Harlan and that
he had been assured that the men
would present themselves before the
court commissioner on Monday.
This voluntary assurance on the
part Of the men against whom war.
