Squire And Dorsey

Magistrate Washington Hastings to-
day, but because the principle witness
IN the case could not be here to-day,
tho hearing was postponed until to-
morrow.
The men were arrested to-day by
United States Marshal Finn on allega-
tions made by Postoffico Inspector Will
liam ]. Maxwell, who has been working
on the case. The second charge against
the mon is entirely different from the
first.
In the first case the defendants are
accused Of having conspired TO devise
scheme to defraud Joseph A. Arnold,
of New York, and other persons of
money by representing that they would
advise safe way whereby all corpor-
ations liable to the new United States
corporation special excise tax, would
be made exempt from the payment Of
such tax. It is charged that Arnold
advanced a sum Of money TO the de-
PENDANTS.
The second charge on which the men
were arrested to-day. accuses them of
devising a scheme to defraud the Sterl-
ing-Meaker Company, Of Newark, n.
j.. by making false representations to
arrange for the preparation and issu-
ance Of bonds by corporations desiring
TO borrow money, and further, that
they possessed financial backing, rela-
tions and connections whereby bonds
SO Issued could be sold.
II is charged that ]. Albert stowe,
president of the Newark company, ad-
vanced s1S9.T5, the cost Of preparing an
issue OF 100 bonds at $1,000 each. A
certificate Of appraisement signed by
George W. Dorsey, setting forth that
he. as appraiser, found the above COM
pany in good shape, and that the
profits of the concern ranged from 80
20 175 per cent, and that the company
had all the orders Il could fill, was
among the things Mr.. Stowe is alleged
to have received.
The defendants were arraigned be-
fore United States Commissioner Will
liam G. Mahany to-day and waived a
| hearing for the January term Of United
| States Court. Bail was fixed in each
case at $500, which was furnished and
/ the men were released.

LABOR LEADERS
TO APPEAL
Contempt Case Will be Carried
to Supreme Court, Says
Morrison

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
WASHINGTON, Nov 2.-Frank Nor
rison, secretary Of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, whose sentence by Justice
Wright to six months in Jail was affirm
ed In to-day's decision. said this afternoon
that steps would be taken by the attor-
news for tho Federation Immediately for
an appeal TO the Supreme Court Of the
United states. Morrison, who was busy
at his office preparing for the forthcom-
ing annual convention OF the organization
at Toronto next week, did not even take
the time TO read the newspaper reports OF
the decision. He requested the attorney
Of the Federation, however, to procure
certified copies Of each OF the three opin-
ions, in order that they might be laid
before the convention.
That President Gompers intends to fight
the case through the court Of last re-
sort Is made clear in the November num-
Der of the Federationist, Just issued He
says in the leading editorial:
"Perhaps before these words appear in
print the Court Of Appeals will have
handed down its decision. Whatever this
may be, It must ultimately lead 70 VIC
tory for labor and a victory for labor
will mean a victory for all Of the people
should the court sustain the decision by
Justice Wright. It will simply mean thai
an appeal must be taken to the highest
court in the land to obtain a final, deter.
mining word as to the judicial conception
OF existing constitutional guarantees
Even should the highest judicial tribuna
Of our country fail to maintain the right

Justice Robb dismisses this conten-
tion by quoting from the opion Of
Justice Gould, who rendered the judg-
ment Of the Supreme Court, 10 prove
that that court only considered these
acts as tending 20 show intent.
The court does not render opinions
orally from the bench, and in the case
Of the present judgment, the three
opinions were merely handed to the

History Of the Trouble.
The matter decided to-day grew out Of
the action Of the American Federation of
Labor in placing tho Bucks Stove and
Range Company OF St Louis. on the
'we-don't-patronize" list In the monthly
official organ Of the federation, following
the failure Of an adjustment OF the dis
pute between tho Metal Polishers Union
and the Bucks Company IN March, 1901
The st. Louis concern thereupon obtained
an Injunction from Justice Gould, of the
Supreme Court OF the District Of Colum-
bia to prevent further use Of their name
In that connection. Justice Gould's In
Junction was Of a sweeping character
anu forbade any reference in the Fedora
ZIONIST OF otherwise by the officers Of the
American Federation OF Labor to IT'S AL
legged unfairness 20 organized labor. Al
though emitting the name Of tho COM
pany from the "we-dont-patronizo'' list,
Gompers and tho other officials OF tho
American Federation Of Labor continued
their campaign against the concern IN edi-
torials. public statements. and speeches.
The Bucks Company brought these
facts 10 the attention OF Justice Wright,
IN tho absence Of Justice Gould and last
January he sentenced the labor leaders to
Jail, after delivering one or the most
scathing opinions ever handed down I'm an
American court

the defendants as utter, rampant, insol-

NAVY MAY FINISH
THE SCHEDULE

ANNAPOLIS. ND, Nov. 2.--The ath-
letic authorities of tho naval academy
have not yet taken action regarding
the cancellation Of the football game
with the military academy. Though
not officially announced there seems 70
to be little doubt that the Navy team
will continue to play out its schedule
and that every effort will be made to
have the Army team reconsider its
action and play off its annual game
with Navy.
The condition Of Quarterback Earl
Wilson, who is suffering from injuries
similar to those which killed Cadet
Byrne, at West Point remains un-
changed today and the surgeons are
still hopeful that he will improve suf-
.hciently to warrant them in operating
in an effort to save his life.

AUTO CHAUFFEUR
SHOOTS HIMSELF
Leonard E. Cooper Sent Bullet
Into His Stomach After
Viewing a Parade

Leonard e. Cooper. a chauffeur in the
employ OF Robert S. Baird. late last
night shot himself in the stomach, as
a result of brooding over the serious
illness of his wife, but he is expected
to recover. The shooting came as a
dramatic end of an enjoyable evening
during which Cooper had taken Mr..
Baird and a party OF guests 10 Market
street to witness the parade OF the
mummers. The party viewed the pa
rade along the street and stopped at
the Clayton House for luncheon before
going home about eleven o'clock.
On the way to Mr.. Baird's residence
at Red Oak Road and Riverview ave-
nue., Mr.. Baird noted that Cooper, who
is a. careful driver, was sending the
automobile along at a rapid clip. When
the machine drew up in front of the
house Mr.. Baird remarked casually
that no time was lost in getting home.
'I hope you had a pleasant ride,
replied Cooper, somewhat excitedlyr
and the next instant a revolver shot
rang out. It was followed quickly by
! another shot, both being in the air. AZ
the first report Mr.. Baird thought
a tire on the car had burst
but he saw the revolver
when the second shot rang out. Before
anybody could interfere Cooper hac
placed the revolver against his stomach
and fired. Then one OF the men seized th'
revolver and tore It from Cooper. The bull
let penetrated the abdominal wall, but die
not make a serious wound.
Cooper was removed in the Phoenix am
bulance to the Delaware Hospital Tit
bullet was Of p calibre, the revolver iron
which 1t was fired being generally car
ried in the automobile.
Cooper had worried greatly over th
illness of his wife. and he said this ha,
preyed on his mind so that he felt an i'm
pulse to shoot himself.
