LABOR IN SLAVERY
Counsel of Anti Boycotters De- clares Federation Seeks
 That End.
CITES DANBURY HAT CASE
Gompers' Comparison of Recent De- cision With Dred-Scott Case
 Answered.

New York Feb. 25.--James NJ. Beck, general counsel of the American Anti boycott association. under whose di- rection injunctions have been obtained in the federal courts against the Amer ican Federation of Labor said to-day with reference to the signed editorial of Samuel Gompors in the current Federationist;
 "The supreme court needs no de- fense from Mir, Gompers' attacks. Its procedure may, as he says, be medieval and it's economies antiquated. but it's recent decision in the Danbury hat case was at least based upon the con- stituton of the United States, which guarantees liberty of contract.
 MT. Gompers is disingenuous when he suggests that the American Fedora tion of Labor did not boycott the Danbury hat manufacturer. The boy colt was proclaimed by the United Hatters' association, constituent body of the federation, and was active ly prosecuted by the federation as far west as California, in which state we obtained an injunction against it's lo- cal subordinate body on July 1. 1905. Mir Gompers builded better than he knew when he likened the supreme court decision to the Dred Scott case. for as the latter preceded the down. fall of African slavery, so this decision will result in the downfall of the sys- tenn of labor slavery, which Mir Com pers and his associates have attempted to create. under which if it's final pur- pose were accomplished. no American laboring man could get employment unless he consented to join the federa- ton and submit to the dictates of its executive committee of eleven mem- bers.'

THE KANSAS CITY MARKET
Reported for the News by a Special

Kansas City Stock Yards, Dec. IA,
1908. Cattle supplies fell off after the
middle of last week, and the market

tions, Is, 900 here and heavy elsewhere.

disappointment. Killers appear to
have good trade in cheaper grades,

move readily and with less dickering
than the more expensive kinds. In
creasing receipts OF poultry and game
will have it's influence against demand
for beef till after the holidays, and a
SIMS Il supply Of cattle will be all that
can be handled without reducing prices
the next week or two. The disposition
In the country will be toward early
marketing, which tendency will prob
ably cause liberal receipts and small
chance for advance OF the market ia

WORK BEGUN ON TIE

tract for the construction of the Ma
tional Guard armory in this city, lost.
no time in beginning work on the Job
and already has a number of men and
teams at work eXcavating for the
foundation and easements. Upon stalk
ing out the ground for the building it
was found that it was between seven
and eight inches wider than the lot.
causing a slight encroachment on the
lot owned by the Woman's Board of
Trade. upon which the Public Library
stands. The armory board conferred
with the Woman's Board of Trade re-
garding the matter and the latter will
inglya consented to allow the armory
board to use the necessary few inches
OF their lot for the new building. Thus
what might have proved troublesome
stumbling block was quickly removed.
Mr.. Dahlgren built the Mary James
Mission School in this city and is
making an estimate upon the proposed

Pittsburg, Pa Nov. 23.-The DO.
lice have made two other arrests in
the case of J. Montefioreo Meyers, said
to be from Australia, who was arrest
ed Saturday and taken to New York
on charge of grand larceny. w.
Fitzpatrick and his brother, John A.
Fitzpatrick, have been arrested as al
legged confederates Of Meyers. Fitz-
patrick was arrested on information
furnished by Richard Barnley Sheri-
dan, a wealthy coal operator and John
A. German, attorney for Colonel J. NJ.
Guffey.
According to the police, r. N.
Barnsdall, also millionaire oil op-
orator, had been interested in sever
al deals with Meyers.
How Deal Was Promoted.
Meyers and the Fitzpatricks are al
legged to have promoted deal to buy
options on coal and oil lands. Meyers,
1t IS said, represented he controlled
several million dollars of the Rotch-
schilds, European bankers. He had
little difficulty in interesting Sheri-
dan, Guffey and Barnsdall. Just how
many more wealthy Pittsburgers were
interested he refused to say. Sheri-
dan says Meyers won his complete
confidence at first, but later becoming
suspicious he asked the New York po-
lice for his record and upon learning
this the arrest of Meyers followed.
The superintendent of police said to-
day:
From all can learn Meyers and his
confederates secured very little if any
money, but they were just ready to un-
load swindle that would have torn
things wide open in the financial
world"

SAYS ROCKEFELLER
MUST TELL ALL
Federal Counsel Contends Oil Kings
Testimony Must Cover Entire
History Of Standard.

New York, Nov. 23.-Whether John
d. Rockefeller will be compelled to
enlarge the scope of his testimony was
the question when the hearing in the
governments suit to dissolve the STAN
dard OIL company was resumed today
1t had been the plan of the Standard $
attorneys to have Rockefeller tell COM
paratively all of the early years of the
company's existence and that his di-
rect examination was to include no
reference to any happenings later
than 1882. 1t was announced at that
time that the remainder of the STAN
dard's story would be told by John D.
Archbold and other officers of the COM
pany who are more familiar than
Rockefeller with the happenings of
the last quarter of a century.
Government Counsel Kellogg con-
tends, however, that Rockefeller him
self, by one of his answers made it
possible for the government to 60 as
far as it likes in the cross-examina-
tion In his direct testimony, Rookie
feller said the business of refining
oil was a hazardous one and in his
cross-examination Rockefeller stated
that the business was hazardous "ev-
en- up to the present time" Kellogg
maintains the statement that the oil
business was hazardous, "up to the
present time" opens up that whole
period of Standard history.
Rockefeller was recalled to the wit
ness stand when the Standard Oil
hearing was resumed today.
During the examination, Rockefeller
testified today that he did not conceive
the plan of the formation of the orig
inal Standard Oil trust in 1882.
I'm sorry to say that did not,
said Rockefeller. "I cannot claim any
credit for that. Flagler and S. G. Dodd
conceived it,"
