THROW DOWN GAUNTLET OF
BATTLE TO FRENCH GOVERN
MENT BY INCORPORATING.
SIMILAR TO LABOR UNION
Take Advantage of Old Law, Which
Enbles Them to Form an Organiza-
ton That Has the Privilege Of
Striking, if Such Action Be Decided
Upon-General Strike Imminent.

Paris, May 6-The famous p t. T.,
that is, the Postal Telegraph and
Telephone Employees association, to-
day threw down the gauntlet of bat
tie to the government by Transforming
itself into syndicate or union, under
the law of 1884 This places the asso-
citation on the same footing with work.
mems unions with the right to strike
This defiance, which is nothing short
Of open revolt, came as a sudden and
sensational sequel to Premier Glenn
enceau's failure today 10 receive a
deputation Of postal employees who
called to demand the redemption OF
promises they claim the government
made when the recent strike was de-
clared off.
The premier was i'll, but the dele
cation pretended to believe his indis-
position was simulated Their failure
to be received, however, served as a
pretext for springing their surprise
and an hour later the transformation
of the association into a national syn
dicate was announced and the statutes
Of the organization were officially filed
in the city hall.
Coup de Theatre
1t was what the French call a coup
de theater, but if it proves successful
it would be more like a coup d'etat, as
it's purposes is to make the employees
the masters and not the servants Of
the state.
The rules of the organization follow
strictly in form those of the work.
mems organization. They declare
their purpose to defend economics in
terests and give moral and material
support to members having differences
with the administration. A commit
tee is created following the lines OF
trades unions to act as intermediary
in such difficulties and members are
forbidden, under penalty of losing
their membership, to present issues
principally to the administration.
The most serious aspect of the sit
uation is the fact that the leaders are
undoubtedly hand in glove with the
moving spirits of the General Fedora
ton of Labor, which is now universal
ly recognized as a revolutionary or
ganization and which has for a long
time been preparing for general
strike to destroy Capitalists"
Strike Imminent.
The suppression of this organization
has frequently been contemplated by
the French government. Fortunately,
a considerable proportion Of the postal
employees have had their eyes opened
to the revolutionary venture and have
broken away. There are enough loyal
servants to form working nucleus
to fight against the strike which to-
night Is considered matter OF hours.
The government which claims to be
prepared for any eventuality, it Is
conceded, must now act vigorously or
abdicate. The leaders of the move
ment have no option but to declare
strike the minute the government
makes hostile turn.
Employees of the central postoftice
voted in favor of the principle Of
general strike at a meeting tonight.

Sensational?

Helena. May 6.--Sensational, indeed,
was the kidnapping of young Charles
Peabody at the Union station here to-
day by the members of the family or
James Lee, when by sheer force Of
strength, the 6-year-old child was
taken from it's mother and another
woman and hustled aboard Northern
Pacific train, just departing for the
west A warrant has been issued and
placed in the hands of the sheriff, who
expects to apprehend the Lees and the
child upon arrival Of the train IN
Missoula.
The affair was evidently planned
with great care and was carried out
in brutal fashion. Lee for number
of years has been section foreman
for the Northern Pacific at Marys-
ville mining camp near here, Whlle
Charles Peabody is one of its most
prominent merchants. Six years ago
child was born to the Peabody fam
ilv and the mother being in an enfee-
hIed condition, secured the services OF
Mrs. Lee in it's care. After some little
time, Mrs. Peabody recovered, made
settlement with Mrs. Lee for her serv-
From its temporary residence with
them, the entire Lee family became
greatly attached to the infant and this
continued throughout their residence in
Marysville.
Scene at Depot.
Lee was last week ordered from
Marysville and he prepared to remove.
Mrs. Peabody was asked to bring the
child to Helena, that they might bid
it farewell. This Mrs Peabody con-
sented to do, that the parting between
the families might be friendly Mrs.
Peabody and son arrived yesterday and
all met at the station, just before the
arrival of the westbound train. There
were many affectionate fareWells be-
tween the Peabody child and the men,
bers of the Lee family and the sepa-
ration finally came. The Lees boarded
the train, while Mrs. Peabody and a
Mrs. Irwin, who had accompanied her
to the station, started for the street.

Before they realized it. they were set
upon by members of the Lee family
and the child wrested from them and
taken aboard the train.
Those who witnessed the affair were
too bewildered to act. and the train
soon started, with the child aboard
and in the custody of the Lees.
It is expected that the Lees and
child will be apprehended at Missoula.
