Louisiana Violation of Eight-HOur Law
On Trial.


New Orleans, La, July 1S.-Ths case
of the United States against H. f.
Garbish. recently indicted foe keeping
laborers on levee construction work
more than eight hours a day, in vio-
lation OF the Federal statute, was
continued indefinitely when called for
trial in the United States district
court here today.
This is the first prosecution of the
kind to arise in Louisiana and it is
claimed that the enforcement of the
statute will work a great hardship on
those engaged in levee work in Lou
Isiana. Consequently, United States
Attorney Beattie and counsel for the
defendant practically agreed to make
a test case of the matter, which will
probably necessitate the drawing up of
a differently worded indictment.
