CHARLOTTESVILLE VA, September
$-The reports recently sent out to the
effect that Manager Woods, of the Uni
versity of Virginia football team, had
arranged a game with Vanderbilt Uni
versity. one of the strongest of the
Southern eleyens, Is without founda-
ton in fact. 1t is true that some ne
gotiations were carried on with the
Barons last spring. Vanderbilt wanted
the contest to be pulled off In Louis
VILE, or Atlanta. while Virginia asked
that the game be played in Norfolk
or Richmond. The Tennesseeians We're
not willing to yield. and all correspond
ence was brought to an end.
Because of the fact that Virginia and
Vanderbilt made practically the same
showing against the Carlisle Indians
last season. the friends of both insti-
tutions We're anxious to have the two
teams meet this year The probable
ity of arranging a game at this late
date is very remote.

Grafton of Labor is here. busy mus

stand pat as against the Industrial
Workers of the World They will
not join the order under any con-
dition, and now the labor unions al
lied with the Industrial Workers of
the World are considering the propo-
sition to break away from the parent
body. Petitions are in circulation
among the members of those unions
to the effect that hey shall form in
dependent organizations with the ul-
innate object in view of going over
to the American Federation.
Today the Industrial Workers of
the World issued a proclamation for
bidding all members of the order
from working in quarries or deliver
ing rock and other material to firms
employing labor which is not identi-
fed with the Industrial Workers of
the World. This order of course, is
aimed at the contractors who have
buildings in the course of construc-

these buildings are all allied with
the American Federation of Labor.

GOLDFIELD, March 14.-At a
meeting of the citizens held this
evening an organization TO be known
as the Goldheld Business Men and

and perfected. II transpired at
the meeting that the places
OF the deputies vacated had been
filled by Sheriff ingalls, and Constable
Claude Inman with members of the
Western Federation OF Miners. This
created CONSERVATION and consider
able discussion ensued. The Sheriff
and Constable were sent for and they
explained that none OF the miners
appointed we're in sympathy with the
Industrial Workers OF the World.
Diamondfield Jack Davis led the
objection to the appointments made
by the officers and declared that these
men. the miners. could not fulfill
their obligations to the Industrial
Workers OF the World, of which their
union is a mining department. and
act as the representatives of law and
order under the existing conditions.
He stated that since learning of
the appointments he wired to Gov
ernor Sparks for U. S. Deputy Mar

executive committee of the citizens
organization, comprising five men
should have the authority to name
fifty additional men TO act as depu-
ties. Sheriff ingalls, and Constable
