TORONTO, Nov. 1o-Bitter denunci-
alton of the United States Steel cor
poration as labor's "most formidable
and aggressive enemy" was expressed
in a resolution introduced in the Amer
lean Federation of Labor convention
today by P. ]. McArdle, president of
the Amalgamated Association of Iron,
Steel and Tin Workers.
The resolution, which was referred to
the committee on resolutions, reads:
Whereas, the United States Steel
corporation is waging a war of ex-
termination against organized labor in
the mills and among it's transcontinen-
tai lines, and has committed itself to
the policy of operating all branches
of it's BUSINESS non-union, and
Whereas, in carrying out this pol
icy it can only be a question of time
until every union man in its employ
must either forfeit his union member
ship or his employment; therefore,
be il
'Resolved, that this convention rec
ognizes the United States Steel cor
poration as the most formidable and
aggressive enemy of the movement 1t
has to contend with; and we recon-
mend a meeting be held during the
session of this convention for the eX-
ecutive officers Of all organizations
represented together with the president
and secretary of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, to consider the out
line of a campaign of organization
among the employees of the United
States Steel corporation, and to con-
slider and devise ways and means or
making the strikes of the affiliated or
ganizations now pending more effec-
tive, to the end that they may be
brought to a successful conclusion"
The Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners succeeded in keeping the dele
gate-elect of the Buffalo United Trades
and Labor council from recognition, on
the ground the Buffalo central body
had retained in it's membership a dual
local union of millWrights.
Otto II. thinner from the Labor Edu-
cational association of Ontario was
not seated.
A protest lodged with the credentials
committee against Delegate John M.
Kelly of the San Francisco labor coun-
Gil was withdrawn.
Prof. Frances S. Potter secretary Of
the National Woman's Suffrage asso-
citation, addressed the convention. She
referred to the suffrage agitation in
Great Britain and elsewhere, and said
ST do not believe the movement in
America will ever take on the militant
character exploited by our British sis
ters."
A resolution was offered by the Cen
trail Federated Union of New York
recommending a mighty protest
against the sentences imposed on
Messrs. Gompers, Mitchell and Nor
rison.
Among other resolutions were the
following:
Central Federated Union of New
Yerk: That the federation assist the
actors in the union in chartering and
bringing into the fold OF organized
labor all the union theatrical organi-
cations which are now part of labor
movements in various parts of Europe
and that all state, city and local unions
assist the international union in New
York, Illinois, Pennsylvania, New Jer-
sew and Massachusetts in fighting the
atrical employment agencies.

and Joiners: Favoring a postal savings

U. S. COURT REFUSES TO
INTERFERE WITH CASE

PORTLAND, Ore, Nov. 10.-The
United States supreme court has re-
fused to interfere in the case of James
A. Finch, a lawyer who November H.,
1908, shot to death Ralph Fisher pros
ecutor of the Oregon State Bar asso-
citation.
Finch, who was a disbarred attorney,
had already met reversal from the
state supreme court, and now all that
intervenes between him and death on
the scaffold at Salem Friday of this
week is possible executive clemency.
Finch's petition is in the governors
hands and a decision is expected today.

RAILROAD OFFICIALS SAY
WAGES WILL NOT BE RAISED

CHICAGO, Nov. 10.-Railroad Off
cials said yesterday no wage increases
would be granted their employees at
this time and they did not expect Sc
rious trouble. The demands of the men
were declared to have been presented
at an inopportune time, just as the
railroads are emerging from period
of business depression, when earnings
must be applied to equipment which
should have been purchased a year
ago.

trip should continue two or three
weeks longer.
He has been greatly fatigued at the

The president will not see any call

if he visits the executive offices at all

CINCINNATI, Nov. 10.--With a
shortage mounting higher as further
penetration is made into the tangled
affairs of the Big -Four railroad 5
financial department, experts in charge
of the examination probed today into
the matter of securities and bond is
sues which came under the charge of
Charles l.. Warriner, deposed treas
urer, who is accused of responsibility
for a defalcation amounting to $643,e0O
of the company's funds.
Inasmuch as the shortage has grown
in q few days from what was sup
posed To be about 100000 to $64S,000
still further developments along thls
line would not be astounding to those
who are apparently in close touch with
the affairs of the railroad company
One of the developments of the War
riner exposure. 1t is hinted here today,
is likely to be the early removal of
the general Big Four offices from this
city to Chicago.
This change has been rumored for
some time, but was denied by railroad
officials. 1t is learned today that War
riner in his confession to his superiors
told them when he came here from
Cleveland he brought with him a
shortage of $4,000 in his accounts at
Cleveland.
His downfall he dates from that
event. having covered that shortage
only TO fall into the clutches of the
man who. he alleges, has blackmailed
him ever since. This shortage con-
to 100000 before he realized his po-
sition.
Woman Involved
From a high official source IL is
learned the first intimation of the i'm
pending scandal I'm the Office of the
local treasurer of the Big Four came
through a Chicago woman, who, 1t IS
alleged, had been sharing in the spoils
and whose income had been shut off.
At first the statement of the woman
was not credited and Melville E. In
gals, chairman of the board of the
Big Four, announced today that for
several days it was almost impossible
DOR him to believe anything wrong
with Warriner, Notwithstanding a
hasty examination by some of the
higher officials of the company brought
to light the first facts of the shortage.
Through the taking out of attach
ment papers seeking to recover certain
goods sold to her by a department
store in this city, the woman men
toned by Warmer as one of his al
legged blackmailers was discovered in
an apartment house today. She is
well known here and in Chicago where
she figured in a number of affairs.
She has been a volunteer prisoner
since the developments in the Big
-Four shortage.
While in Chicago she was a defend
ant in a prosecution in which she was
charged with having attempted to
shoot a man, the latter also being
named by Warriner in connection with
the alleged blackmail.
Detectives discovered that a large
amount of mail was awaiting this
woman at a leading hotel, which she
had left some time ago without Civ
ing any forwarding address.
It was stated also that she had de-
posted at the hotel a large sum of
money. 1t is not known whether there
will be any effort to ascertain tho
source of this money.

ically absolved Frank Comstock, War
riners predecessor, today of any re-
sponsibility for the shortage

Washington.-George w. Woodruff
has been named by President Taft to
be United States district Judge for
Hawaii, but some objection having
arisen the appointment is being re.
considered and may be withdrawn.
Mr.. Woodruff was a noted football

Roosevelt so greatly that he was an.

some one to take Mr.. Woodruffs 8

brought pressure to bear and the
president named him to the judicial
position in Hawaii, The appointment

The objections of these members
were based on a statement made to
the committee by Gen Basil Duke of
Louisville, who contended that the fig
use OF the man was wholly unlike
Gen. Morgan in life. as 1t made
him appear too weak chested and
more like consumptive. while as
matter of fact, Gen. Morgan stood six
feet In his stockings, was a man OF
large build, with broad shoulders and
a massive chest.

The Marital Grasshopper.

What is grasshopper? The latest
definition comes from western Aus
tralia. Domestic servants are almost
unprocurable there, and wives have to
do nearly all their own household
work. The consequence is that they
are compelled torecuperate at the sea.

husbands have to prepare their own
meals and do domestic duty generally.

That the earth must shine on the

met with strong opposition on the
ground that Mr.. Woodruff had not had
sufficient judicial experience to fit him
for the place. The fact that many of
Mr., Woodruff's rulings in the interior
department had been overruled by the
courts was quoted, and the president
suspended action for the time, and, it
is thought. may transfer Mr. Woodruff
to some other position or withdraw
his name entirely.
