LABOR UNIONS WIN
A GREAT VICTORY
Injunction of AIIiS Chalmers
Against MoIders' Union is
Dissolved.
PICKETING NOT ILLEGAL
NOT ILLEGAL
JOHN OIEARY, LABOR LEADER.
THINKS 1T is ONE OF THE
MOST IMPORTANT DECISIONS
IN YEARS.
Publishers Pressl


Milwaukee, Wis, July 1S.-Labor
unions scored an important victory
when Judge J. V. ouarles. after lis,
tening to an all day argument in the
United States District Court. handed
down a decision dissolving an iniunc.
tion obtained by the Allis- Chalmers
Company on June 16. restrainins
striking members of the Iron Molders
Union from interfering by picketins
or otherwise with the company's bus
mess.
Judge ouarels defined the rights of
laboring men and traced the history
of labor unions and strikes from their
early beginning in France and Eng
land to the present day. The iniunc-
tion was dissolved without prejudice
to the Allis Chalmers Company of re.
newing the application upon a show.
ing that the strikers mad resorted to
unlawful means to accomplish their
ends. Among others who listened to
Judge Quarles was John r.. O'Leary,
of Boston, third vice president of the
Iron Molders Union. When 1t became
apparent that Judge Quarles would
decide in favor of the strikers broad
smiles appeared on the faces of the
auditors and some of the younger
men showed a decision to applaud
When they saw that for the first time
in years a labor Injunction was about
to be dissolved by a federal Judge,
their joy almost got the better of
their awe of the pompous court at
| tendants
Mr.. O'Leary and other officers of
the union said fater court adjourned
that Judge Quarles' decision was the
most important labor decision that
has been handed down in year,
This is great day for the cause
| of labor" said Mr.. O'Leary. This is
the first decision of its kind harded
down I'm many years 1t will go far to
| insure a peaceful settlement of labor
| difficulties. We have always maintain
| ed that labor iniunctions have had
great deal to do with disorder and
violence in times of strikes ard dis
| putes. You may be sure the Iron Mol
| ders Union will do nothing to Justify
| the foundrymen in taking advantage
of Judge Quarles' permission to re-
| new their application for an injunc-
| tion on proof of unlawful practices"

TAFT MAY co TO
THE PHILIPPINES
Much Significance Attaches
to Whether or Not He
Makes Journey.
WHAT 1T WOULD MEkH
If PoRTLY SECRETARY GOES 1T
MEANS THAT HE WILL NOT BE-
COME CHIEF JUSTICE BUT MAY
SEEK PRESIDENCY.
WHAT 1T WOULD MEAN
Publish ers' PressI

Washington, July .13.-Secretary
Taft is considering a trip to the
Philippines next spring. He would
like to be present when the first legis-
lative body of the islands meets. He
contributed greatly toward the estab-
lishment of a popular legislative
body. The question of making this
journey has not been definitely de-
cided. The final conclusion of Mr.
Taft is of unusual interest If he goes
to the Philippines it will mean that
he has refused a position on the SUI
preme bench and will be an active
candidate for the Republican presi-
Dental nomination. If he does not go
it means that he will accept the place
made vacant by the retirement of
Justice Brown and forever rellnquish
all presidential ambitions.
Secretary Taft would not hesitate
about accepting the chief justiceship
but does not care so much for the
subordinate position. He will await
developments before reaching a final
conclusion as to his course.

Rents Room of Mrs. Menden-
hall on North Ia ST., and
Carries Away VaIuabIes.
REMAINED BUT AN HOUR
TRIED HIS GAME AT ANOTHER
HOUSE NEARBY, BUT GOT
NOTHING LEFT OLD HOSE
AND TOOK WOMAN'S SILK PAIR

Raffles, in the form of young man
about six feet TALL clothed in light
grey and natty derby on head, alb
seconded with several articles of jew
elry and some money from the board
ing house of Mrs. Mendenhall, at 424
North IA street, yesterday afternoon.
No neater robbery has been scored
on the local police records for a long
time than that which Raffles turned
off between $3.50 and 4 80 o'clock yes
terday afternoon. Knocking at the
door, and being answered by Mrs.
Mendenhall, he stated that he would
like to take a room. He was shown
one and told the woman that he
would take it.
Il should like to lie down and rest
for about an hour" said he. Mrs.
Mendenhall left the room. For the
next hour Raffles opened all the
trunks on the floor, taking money,
watches, watchchains and wearing ap-
parel Then he went down and said
to the landlady:
Il am going down to the station to
see if my trunk has come
That was the last of Raffles. When
the boarders arrived in the evening
it was found that Martin Wheelbarger
was minus $3.50; Charles Bard, $1.00;
Harry Walters $500; William Short a
gold watch, with the inscription in the
back, Will to Eva; and Harvey
Brown a gold watch chain.
Raffles' socks must have been on
for some time, for he took them off
and selected a dainty pair of full
length hose from one of the women s
trunks and put them on, leaving his
.'wOOlens" as clue.
Raffles took room at 13 and d
streets, going through that house in
the same manner as the one above
mentioned. He failed to find any
thing that suited him, as nothing was
discovered missing.

SHERA & STARR
GIVEN CONTRACT
Will Furnish Coal for the Mu-
nicipaI Light Plant for the
Coming Year.
THEIR BID WAS THE BEST
KIND OF COAL TO BE USED HAS
NOT BEEN DECIDED ON-EX-
PERIMENITs NOW BEING MADE
ON DIFFERENT GRADES

At the meeting of the board of
Works yesterday the contract for fur
nishing coal to the Municipal Light
Plant for the coming year was award
ed to Shera and Starr, that firm being
the only one which bid on all the
kinds of coal used at the plant The
bid of Shera and Starr on nut and
slack coal, the most used at the plant,
was $2.15 per ton. Mather Bros. bid
the same amount on this grade of
coal. In awarding the contract the
board felt that the Shera and Starr
bid was the better one as it included
likely use during the coming year.
The grade of coal to be used has
not been decided on by the board.
Experiments are now being made at
the light plant to ascertain whether or
not, expensive coal pays better in the
long run than cheap grade OF coal.
The board will defer action on the
kind of coal to be used until these ex-
perime~ s are completed.
Shera and Starr furnished coal for
the city last year and gave the best
year when other firms in the city
were handicapped by lack of coal, and
local dealers could hardly supply
their demans, Shera and Starr kept
an agent on the road hunting up coal
cars, and almost bribing railroad en-
ployes to hurry their shipments.
The bid of Shera and Starr, and in
fact, all the companies, was higher
this year than last, which fact is ac-
counted for by there being a greater
demand for slack and nut coal now
than ever before, which has raised
the price. The general use of stok-
ers is causing an unprecedented call
for slack and nut coal. This grade
of coal is but the off falling of lump
coal, and the latter being less in de-
mand, causes a smaller supply of the
slack and hence an increased price.

Rev. Reed Denounced Dancing
and Dancers in Meeting at
Dublin Last Night.
SEVERAL LEFT THE TENT
EvANGELlST'S WORDS WE'RE
TOO MUCH FOR THEM-GREAT
AUDIENCE HEARD THE BITTER
ARRAIGNMENT.

Dublin, Ind, July 13. (Spl)-True
to predictions. the sermon tonight by
the Rev. J. Fenwck Reed, at the camp
meeting, on the subject Of Dancing"
was a severe announcement of dane
ing and dancers in general. Mr..
Reed showed mercy at no quarter, and
during the bitter arraignment of the
practice, many persons in the audi
ence who took exceptions to his re-
marks, got up and left the tent. The
fact that the minister would speak on
this subject was generally known in
the three surrounding counties and
the largest crowd of the revival was
in attendance, it being estimated that
there were at least twelve hundred
people in the tent, many also being
turned away owing to lack of, room
within.
Took Strong Text.
Rev. Reed took for his text, He
that soweth to the flesh shall of the
flesh reap corruption, Gal. 6-7." He
opened his remarks by saying, Il am
unflinchingly and without fear against
and denounce the dance. BE it clear
ly understood at the outset | speak of
the dance and not the dancers" Rev.
Reed then gave some statements on
which he based his theory that dane
ing was wrong. He said. Il de-
nounce the dance because it Is injuri
GUS to health. 1t is practiced after
the days toll is over and often after
the days work is rushed in order that
the dancer may attend. 1t is often
carried on till midnight and some
times till morning. In one waltz. If
] remember correctly, it is necessary
to cover a distance in stanping, equal
to nearly 2 miles. and that at a rapid
gait. The shameful way in which the
ladies dress is decidedly injurious to
their health. 1t Is unnatural and un.
becoming. Thackeray says A man
who dances is an ass / do not say
1t. have too much sympathy for the
donkey"
Showed the Immoral Side.
Mr.. Reed showed the immoral side
of the dance. He said Il charge the
dance with being the hotbed of immor-
ality, a feeder of the sensua! passion,
and in that, worse than the saloon.
The majority of inmates i'm houses
of i'll repute attribute their downfall
to the dance. Yet even farther than
that, some women will go to a dance
and dance with men dressed up in all
manner of Disguise not knowing who
they are" He also said that there
was more harm in sitting still
waltz" than a hopping around waltz"
referring to people sitting out dances.
At the close of his sermon he gave
warning to parents to keep their chill
dren away from dances and shield
them along this line.

INSTITUTIONS REGISTRATION DAY
Students Busy in Registration a
University and Wesley College.

Today is registration day for uni
versity students and the cars this
morning and afternoon were crowded
with animated groups of young people
who had mingled again for another
ten months of study. From the ap-
pearances shown this early in the
season the attendance will be larger
than ever, owing no doubt to the good
condition of the crops and the general
prosperity of the country.
Today was spent in getting regis
tered and enrolled and the examina-
tons for the back work were also in
order. The main building is in good
shape for the work, although a small
amount of work still remains to be
done before 1t will begin to assume its
true appearance. The new registrar,
w. Maclay Oates, made quite hit be-
hind the desk today and that he will
be satisfactory to all there is hardly
a doubt.
Today is registration day for Wes-
ley college also, and although it is no
small task to transplant an institution
to a site several hundred miles away,
everything now looks propitous for
large attendance. The college has
engaged quarters in the city and will
be in good shape to take care of the
students that come here. President
Robertson is well pleased with the
outlook The college this year will be
located in the basement of the public
library building, and in the second
floor of the Birkholz block on S. Third
street. The conservatory of music is
to be located in the latter place.
