TOO VERY MUCH POLITICS
That Seems So Be What Ais the Port
ugese Parliament-KinG Is
Running Things.

Libson. June 3.-Premier Franco,
in explaining the political situation,
declared that the dissolution of parli-
ament was necessary for public order.
After years of fruitless efforts the
government had found it was i'm
possible to carry on work owing to
parliamentary obstruction to reforms.
The government regarded national in
terests superior to strife between po-
litical parties. the premier said, and
with the confidence of the people the
king would continue his endeavors to
carry out the reforms of the govern
ment by decree.
This would only be temporary, he
added in conclusion, and as soon as
all the parties were prepared to full
fill their duties parliament would be
reassembled. Meanwhile, the peoples
rights would be absolutely respected
in every way.

San Antonio. Tex. June 3.-One
man instantly killed and Il score OF
persons injured. some Of whom will
die, is the result of the wrecking OF
an east-bound passenger train two
miles west of Lozier, a small station
on the Southern Pacific. The derail-
ment was the result either of train
wreckers or defective steel, though the
positive cause had not been deter
mined up to this writing.
1t was while the train was dashing
along at a speed from thirty-tive to for

occurred. The engine seemingly
passed safely over the obstruction,

Washington. June 3. = Secretary
Morrison, of the American Federation

announcement of the revocation of the
charter of the International Union of
Brewery Workmen because of its re-
fusal to accept the terms prescribed by
the Federation. The action will affect
all the brewery workmen's unions in
the country, with a membership of
about 10000. The terms refused were
that the breweries give up their juris-
diction of the engineers and firemen
employed in the brewery business.
This the brewers refused to do by q
vote that was almost unanimous

board of the international union of

'Inasmuch as the above named or

Mr.. Newcomer is one of the most in

was not only an army syp, but he was
such a valued man that Generals Grant,

by the fact that he was detailed on

In one case he was detailed to make

Indianapolis, June 3-F. A. Cot

struetion, refused to issue a license
as teacher to Pleasant Jenkins, OF
Harrison county, on the ground that
he frequents saloons, and this act Oh
will debar Jenkins from the office OF
school superintendent of Harrison

license to teach.
In refusing the license Superintend-
cnt Cotton said that business houses
have established rules that look upon
offenses of this character from a plain
business standpoint, and drinking can
no more be tolerated among teachers
and county superintendent Of schools.
He says the standard among them
should be higher even than among OH

from bad practices.

to establish daily passenger service

An application made for a writ of

that the state will ask to have the

Will Attack the Law Itself.
Attorney Waggener said at is Iec

from numerous decisions OF the SUI

that body and that its powers are pure
~ Of legislative nature. Whatever
orders a board or commission may
make are simply the acts of this board

REsENTs AN IMPUTATION
Grand Master Morrissey on the Cause
of Railway Accidents.

Cleveland, e. June 3.-Grand Master
r. II Morrissey, of the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen, III discussing rail-
way wrecks and the cause and remedy
for the same said: Whenever
the subject of the causes of railway
wrecks is before the public a certain
class of railway writer's never fail to
speak of the influence of organizations
of labor among railway men as being
subverslve of good discipline and con-
sequently a contributing cause TO the
many disasters that have shocked the
public during the past few years.
There is not railroad labor organ
ization that can justly be charged with
hampering the enforcement of safe
operation by opposing discipline.
There is too much business for the
railroads; too much hurry in conduct
Ing trains and too few employees to in

On one of his trips inside the Con-
federate lines Newcomer was captured
by detail of half drunken cavalrymen
and was told by the captain that he
was to be hung to the nearest tree be-
cause he was a Yankee spy. A halter
was taken from one OF the horses and
placed around his neck in preparation
for the hanging.
When 1t seemed as though his time
had come the other men in the COM
pany came to their senses and saw
that the captain was hanging a man
without sufficient evidence against him
and compelled him to let Newcomer go.
He made scores of other trips inside
the Confederate lines and was finally
engaged to do important secret service
work.
At the battle of Shiloh, Harry New
conner was relied upon implicitly by
Generals Grant and Wallace to deliver
important messages to the various
commands and his work in this battle
was a big factor in its success.
Several historians have given New
conner considerable space in their
works and one of them wrote, I'm all
the annals of police and spy life it will
be difficult to find a career marked by
such uniform and brilliant success as

won Coventry's confidence and esteem.
The doctor agreed TO assist Newcomer
IN effecting the capture OF the counter
feiter and did so by first helping Coven-
try to make the "phoney" money.
Newcomer was introduced to Coven-
try later on as man who would help
dispose Of the spurious coin and when
a meeting place was arranged at which
a certain amount of the bad money
could be exchanged for good. he had
several officers waiting in ambush and
the arrest OF Coventry was the result.
During the war Newcomer was in
duced TO enlist in the Eleventh Indiana
battery where he served as noncom-
missioned officer and became a scout.
Some OF his trips in the enemy's ter
ritory resulted in exciting adventures
and narrow escapes.
At one time he dressed up as a ped
dler and disposed of combs to the sol
diers of the southern army while he
secured from them information regard
ing the number and location of certain
commands. the number of guns they
carried and other information about
them.

when charges We're filed at a meeting
of the Central Labor union against
Lee Jackson, the president. The
charges We're filed by Matthew Hollen-
berger and several other socialists.

charges are in effect that Jackson. act

support Of the central body from the

cept the terms offered by the street

advised them against accepting the
terms. but the advice Of Presidents
Jackson prevailed.
just What They Are There For.
The friends of Jackson say that Hol.
lenberger and other socialist leaders
are trying to play a game OF politics
under the veil of unionism. Jackson
has refused to go over to the socialist
party along with several other labor
leaders of the city. He has always
been a Democrat, and at the last cleo
ton was one of the Democratic nom-
inees for state representative. He has
been president of the central body for
number of years, and is a member
Of the executive committee of the
United Mine Workers. Hollenberger
was the Socialist nominee for govern.
or of Indiana several years ago.
Committee VIII Investigate.
A committee consisting of one man
from ten different unions has been ap-
pointed to investigate the charges
against President Jackson and to re-
port at the meeting next Thursday
night. The conservative leaders Of the
Central Labor union say that the
charges will amount to nothing, and
that Jackson will be indicated.

MARITIME PARALYSIS RULES
Minister Thompson Hopes the Men
Will Come to Their Senses.
Pension Figures They Are Demanding
-Gompers Defied by the Brew
ers Who Are Cut or from
the Federation.

Paris, June 3.-The government has
taken no steps up to this writing to
break the great seamen's strike which
already has brought French commerce
to a standstill. The ministry recOg-
nizes the difficulty Of the situation,
and is willing to consider the demands
of the marines, but it declines to be
browbeaten by trade unionism. 1t is
resolved to take no half measures and
will consider all phases of the ques-
tion before deciding upon a course
of action. The abruptness with which
the strike was inaugurated, to the ut
ter disregard of the balance of me
community, lays the movement open
to sharp criticism and has deprived It
OF popular sympathy.
! Minister Thompson Has Hopes.
While Minister Thompson says he
hopes the strikers will recognize the
logic of facts and come to their
Senses" the government seems to be
almost helpless. The seamen's organ
iZation Is making clear that 1t has no
cause for complaint against the navi-
cation companies, and that the fight
Is against the government for an in
crease of the pensions of the men of
the naval reserve, to which nearly all
the striking officers, engineers. seamen,
'longshoremen, and even the fishermen,
belong.
AS Viewed by the Government.
The justice of the claim of the sea-
tnen that successive French govern
ments since Louis XIV have dor
rowed' immense sums from the sea-
mems funds is recognized, but the cul-
prits now cannot be made to disgorge,
and with the means at the disposal
of the treasury, the minister of marine
says, it is impossible to increase the
minimum of the age pensions to $120
and $500 for men and officers respect
lively, as the seamen's organization de-
mands. The government points out
that the railroad men must be pro-
vided for, and adds that the scale
asked for by the seamen is far in ex-
cess of the scheme for old age work
mems pensions which the government
has under consideration
