New York, May 19. A deter mined warfare on all labor unions, which will have the SUD- port of 5000 members of the National Association of Manu- lecturers, representing an agre- gate capital of fifteen billion dollars, will soon be commenced. This action was determined upon at today's session of the associa- tion, which is holding it's annual convention at the Wardorf As toria. Political methods will be used by the manufacturers in the fight, which will inject a new and vital issue into the presidential campaign.
 According to President James w. Van Cleve, the membership of the association is practically unanimous in the matter of fight ing the unions. It is alleged that of the 30, 900, 900 laborers in this country less than 1,5OO,OOO are affiliated with the American Fed eration of Labor, and that any determined stand against what is termed the tyranny" of or ganized labor will receive the support of the great majority of these unorganized workmen.
 It is stated that the assOcia- tion will not attempt to disrupt the unions, but will make it's fight against some of the princi- ples which the unions stand for and which are obnoxious to the capital. Among these are the closed shop, the boycott, sympa- thetic strikes, apprenticeship re- strictions and compulsory of the union label.
 New York labor leaders are apparently not alarmed by the proposed warfare of the associa- ton and declare that it is but

Johnson forces piled up a large vote in Southern Alabama, and they carried perhaps half a dozen counties in the state, according to present indications, but not enough to indorse the Minnesota governor. Returns from the country districts indicate that Bryan is victorious.
 BRYAN ON THE RESULTS.
 Philadelphia, May 19---William Jennings Bryan, who, last night delivered an address before the Pennsylvania peace conference in session in this city, when ask ed today his views concerning the outcome of the primaries held in Alabama yesterday where he se- cured an apparent victory for the control of the national delegates to the Denver convention, said:
 Alabama is claimed by the opposition and while the vote is no surprise to me it attracts at tention because the returns an- swered misrepresentations which have been sent out. The primary system enables voters to express themselves. In this respect our Democrats in the West had the advantage over the Democrats of some Eastern states where the method of selecting delegates does not give the rank and file of the party much control.

As to Who Shall Be Their Candidate For President. Johnson Popular
 In Cities, Bryan in Country.

Mobile, Ala, May 19---The ex- traordinarily long ticket used by the primary election in Alabama yesterday made it next to impos- sible to secure at an early hour any approximate idea of the re- suit except that Governor John- son boiled a large vote in unex- pected places. The Minnesota governor appears to have carried Montgomery, Mobile and Birm- ingham, the three chief cities of the state. He polled a large vote in South Alabama, notably in Coneueh, Baldwin and Monroe counties. The returns so far counted indicate beyond a doubt that Bryan is the choice of the State Democracy for the party nomination for President. The counting continued today but will probably not be completed before night.
 Montgomery----Returns from the State Democratic primary continues to come in slowly today. Montgomery has the county in, but eleven of her tWenty-two precincts and other cities are in the same situation. Up to noon today the indications are that Bryan has carried the state, tho Gov. Johnson is giving him close race as the party choice for the presidential nomination. The

NO RETURNS HAVE BEEN MADE.

Little Rock, May 19. Accord ing to a published letter sent out by Chairman Jon F. Rutherford of the State Democratic Central Committee, the secretaries of the various county entral commit tees, in the Seven h congressional district, have zen notified to send in to the secretary of the State Central Cc amittee all tally sheets, election eturn vouchers, etc. in that dist ct, in order that a rehearing mig be had in the contest between k. Minor Wal lace and W. S. Goodwin. to de- termine who w; the regularly elected congressman from that district.
 The returns we e to be forward ed at once and were to be in the hands of the COT mittee by May 26, which IS mex Tuesday, as the committee Wanted d to have time to pass the m: tter up to the state convention. which meets a week later, June 2.
 Secretary PaY stated to-day that no returns lad been sent in from any of the counties, so far as he knew, no did he know what action tE central com mittees intend Lo take in the matter. It is unt erstood that the call by the chairman is regularly in line with the rlles of the State Central Commit ae, which body has the right to pass upon such cases by appointing a special con- mittee or by forwarding the mat ter to the state convention for final settlement.
 Under the present circum- stances 1t is evident that action will have to be quick, or the cen tral committee will have no time to go into the affair.

Washington, Nov 23.-It is expect ed that many points will be contest ed at the hearing to-day before the house ways and means committee for consideration of the changes in the tariff on earthenware and glassware. The bureau of manufactures of the department of commerce and labor has issued an exhaustive report on the pottery industry of Germany. This document, which was prepared by Special Agent Charles M. Pepper for the use of congress in it's pro- posed revision of the tariff gives much information regarding the ex- ports of pottery to the United States, the cost of labor and material, freight rates and profits of the in ! dustry in Germany.
 MT Pepper places the total annual pottery output of Germany at from s45, ,O00, 900 to $50,000, 1000, in in crease of from so to 100 per cent within ten years About one-half the product is exported to other coun- tries and in 1907 the exportation to the United States amounted to $7,- SS1, AIS.

 Vienna, Nov 23.-The German and Italian students attending the university of Vienna came into col lision in the university precincts to- day and before the police drove the demonstrants away revolvers had been freely used and a number of young men wounded.
 The trouble was caused by an Ital- ian demonstration in favor of the. es- tablishment of an Italian university at Triest. The German speaking students promptly organized coun- ter demonstration. The opposing factions totalled 1,200 men and the prelude to the fight was the singing of patriotic airs. the Italians using the Garibaldi hymn and the Germans the Watch on the Rhine." The fighting started with fists, sticks and stones, but revolvers soon appeared and number of shots were fired. The Italians were driven from the building and gathered in the street outside. At this stage the police ap- peared and promptly dispersed the rioters with their swords.

COWS DIE IN FIRE

 Bridgeport.

New Milford, Nov 23.-Forty cows and seven horses perished in fire which this morning destroyed a large barn on the farm of J. s. Hal pine located in the town of Bridge water. Farming tools, a large quan. tity of hay, and other property in- cluding about three ton of tobac. co, bundled and ready for shipping were also consumed, together with other small buildings adjoining the barn. The place Is leased by a Swede, named Nelson Johnson Il Is believed that the fire was of in- cendiary origin. The loss is esti- mated at about $10,000 with some insurance.
 When the fire was discovered by a neighbor the structure was ablaze from end to end, and seeing that there was no chance to save it, the men who assembled to fight the fire turned their attention to preventing its spread to the house nearby.
 In this they were successful. IL is said that door which had been nailed up for the winter recently at one end of the barn was found to have been opened. Two men who had been fishing during the night were found who stated that they had passed the barn about an, hour after midnight, and at that time so far as they knew the door had not then been opened. One COW had managed to get away from her stall and es' capped through the opened door.
