the turpentine camps to give evil
dence for the state against their
former pastor.
Franklin, it was told the officers,
was ousted from the church when a
division sprang up among the mem.
bership. Something he is alleged to
have said and done did not meet with
much favor with a majority of the
congregation, and the officers have
the word of a dozen or more that
Franklin, while in the pulpit, was
taken bodily and thrown from the
house of worship. That was on
Tuesday of this week. Two nights
after that the church was fired.
Footsteps discovered are said to
have led to and from the church and
the preachers home and he was ar

to Continue the Fight
Alone.

New York, Nov. 14-The strike OF
drivers and helpers employed by the
trans-continental express companies
was formally declared off and it was
announced at strike headquarters that
the men will return to work Monday.
This will end one Of the most serious
labor disputes that the metropolitan
district has experienced in years.
The close Of the strike was brought
about by the New Jersey strikers who
voted to accept the terms upon which
the companies offered to take back the
men.
They had at first rejected the terms.
but at conference of strike leaders
with Mayor Wittpenn of Jersey City
and President Towne of the New York
Merchants association cleared the way
for agreement. The New York strikers
voted to accept the company's offer
conditional upon similar action being
taken by the men across the river.
Mayor Gaynor and Mr.. Towne were
largely instrumental in inducing the
companies to name terms acceptable to
the strikers. The agreement provides
that the men shall be taken back with
out discrimination, except for acts of
violence during the strike. Each COM
pany will take up with it's employees
the adjustment of wages and hours
Recognition of their union, the chief
issue for which the strikers held out, is
not granted.
The agreement between the COM
panies and employees does not affect the
strike of chauffeurs, cab drivers and
drivers for department stores, who at
first quit work in sympathy with the
express employees, and later presented
demands Of their own. Secretary Fors-
ter of the Information Brotherhood of

FOOTBALL DEATH ACCll Entail
WARRANT FOR MccoY's Ar ST.
WITHDRAWN.
Evidence Did Not Show That Grid.
iron Victim Was Struck -
Intentionally.

Wheeling, W. Va, Nov. 15.-The in.
quest held by Coroner w. w. Rogers
into the cause of the death of Capt.
Rudolph Munk of the West Virginia
University eleven during the game
here Saturday with the Bethany col
lege team resulted in verdict by the
jury that Munk came to his death &C.
cidentally. The warrant for the ar
rest of Thomas Mccoy of Canton, O.,
the Bethany player charged with in
flicting the injuries that caused death,
will be withdrawn at the instance OF
the coroner.
Mccoy was not present at the in
quest, nor was his father, but they
were represented by attorneys from
Canton. The wording of the verdict
was as follows:
"That the evidence in this case is
conflicting; therefore we believe that
Rudolph Munk came to his death Nov.
II, 1910, by colliding with Thomas Nc
Coy. That means accidental death,
and ends any prosecution of Mccoy"
The most important testimony came
before the jury in the shape of a
special delivery letter to the coroner
from Homer Young, the ex-Michigan
player who officiated as umpire. On
Sunday he had given testimony tend.
Ing to show that Mccoy had inten-
tionally struck Munk, and it was on
the strength of his version of the
affair that the warrant for murder fol.
lowed.
Not Positive About Blow.
In his letter placed before the cor.
oner's jury, Young says:
II cannot state with absolute posi-
tiveness that Mccoy struck Munk, al
though it appeared to me that he
struck at him about the head, or that
the act was done Intentionally Al
though there may have been circum
stances from which it may Be inferred
that there was no intention and delib
Grafton to strike.
Three doctors who examined Munl
before and after death, testified thai
there was an injury at the back Of
the head, where a blood clot had
formed; also that there were evi
dences of a former blood clot from
an old injury. Death was due to the
injury received in last Saturdays
game, they stated.
p. H. Rudy of Millersburg, Ohio
left half back of the Bethany eleven
said Mccoy struck Munk with his
forearms crossed and not with his
clinched fist, as had been alleged.
Robert l.. Ramsey, prosecuting at
torney of Brooke county, West Vir
ginia, a spectator at the game, testi
fed to hearing Mccoy say, "They
have been smuggling me all through
this game, but got him (Munk) thai
time This remark of McCoy's was
received with Kisses from spectators
who heard it. A. L. Mcfarland, a for
mer football player, also a spectator
thought the blow had been struck in
