CHANGE DECISION
IN BIG LABOR CASE
lBy Assqs press.l

BY ASSQ<S 4 Press.
Washington, % rch 1.-The
court of aI.S of the District
of columns day modified and
affirme.sS opinion of Justice
Gouls,<SS ne supreme court of
tbe,-DsS Ct of Columbia enjoin-
.-aiig 50 American Federation of
Las Samuel Gompers and the
oSf defendants from publish
in in the I'VE Don't PatrOnize
List the name of the Buck Steel
Range company of 1t. Louis.
The opinion which is handed down
by Justice Robb holds that the de
cree of Justice Gould should be modi-
fled to the extent that there should
be eliminated from the decree of re-
striction of labor organizations and
other defendants from Mentioning,
writing or referring to the business
of the Buck company or its custom
ers. Otherwise the decision is af
firmed. The court holds that a com
bination and boycott in furtheranee
thereof and the publication of the
I'VE Don't Patronize" list is an aid
of the boycott and is Illegal
Giving as his reasons for his opin-
ion Judge Robb declared that We
Don't Patronize" list of the American
Federationist constitutes a talismanic
symbol Indicative to the members of
the Federation that boycott is on
and should be observed and said that
in regard to the courts modification
of Justice Gould's decree that the
court has a right to prevent the print
ing of this unfair list but that the de-
cree should stop there and not at
tempt to regulate the publication and
deliberation of other matter over
which the court had no control.
Today's decision does not settle
the appeal in the contempt case
which will he heard later by the
appellate court. Labor leaders claim
that if the reasoning of today's de
cision is followed in the contempt
proceedings they will not have IL
serve Imprisonment for contempt.

Recovering from Storm.

Little Rock, Aug. 3o.-Sheriff R. l.. Milwee of Monroe county, chairman of the state Democratic rentral committee, was in Little Rock last night on personal busi- ness. He states Monroe county is ill better shape now than it was be- fore the cyclone. He says the number of delinquent taxes this year is much less than ordinarily. The citizens of Monroe county were given additional time in which to pay taxes, by Gov. Don- aghey on account of the cyclone This has given the farmers and business men more time to get in money and the sheriff more time to keep after the tax payers, writ ing those who were apparently go- ing delinquent personal letters, asking them to call and make a settlement. He will sell what de- linquent land there k on Sert. IA, and at the present time there are less than POO tracts.

WHERE SHE SIZED UP.

Dr. Charles r. Aked of New York recently gave the young women of his congregation some excellent ad- vice about matrimonial extrava- gance. Compared with the English girl, the American girl is a great spendthrift. Shortly after the re- turn of the fleet two naval officers were talking about their wives. Naturally they used nautical terms.
 What a dear little craft your wife is," said the first.
 "'Dear and little,' did you say Z? She is dear, all right, but there is nothing little about her. Why, she is the biggest revenue cutter I have ever seen" ."-Cleveland Leader.
