GIVES UP
FIGHT ON
UNION LABOR
DEATH OF FORMER PRESIDENT
VAN CLEAVE ENDS WAR OF
STOVE FACTORY AGAINST
MUSCLE TRUST" AND POLICY
OF "OPEN Shop CEASES.
UNITED PRESS 1rAsrp w1rr.1

st. Louis, July 20.-Ohicials of the
Bucks Stove and Range Company,
whose sensational fight against union
labor eliminated in bringing Jail SEN
tences for President Samuel Gompers,
Vice-President John Mitchell and
Secretary Frank Morrison, of the
American Federation of Labor, admit
today that they have given up the
long fight. Hereafter the open shop
policy of the Bucks Company will not
be adhered to, and union men will be
employed.
A statement to this effect was is
sued in Cincinnati by President
Gompers. Today the company heads
declare that this statement is correct.
The change in policy follows the
death of ]. w. Van Cleave, who was
formerly president of the company,
and who, at the head Of the National
Manufacturers Association, made
his fight against the employment of
union labor countrywide.
In his fight against the unions,
Van Cleave secured an injunction
against the publication of the name
of the Bucks Company in the amer
lean Federationist" unfair list. 1t
was for violation Of this injunction
that Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison
were sentenced to fail. Appeal in
this case is still pending in the feder-
al courts.
Van Cleave's fight against union
labor, which he called the muscle
trust" has been carried on since 1905
Gompers' Case Not Affected.
Cincinnati, o. July 2O.-"The
agreement settling the Buck Stove
and Range Company's fight with
union labor, in no way affects the
case against John Mitchell, Frank
Morrison and myself" said President
Samuel Gompers, of the American
Federation of Labor today. Mitch
ell, vice-president, and Morrison, Sec
retary of the Federation, are under
Jail sentences with Gompers for hav-
ing violated a federal injunction by
publishing the name of the Buck
Company in an unfair list.
"The only change will be that the
Buck Company attorneys will drop
out of the case" Gompers continued.
Gompers said he was much graft
fled with the change in the methods
of the Buck Company.
The American Federation of Labor
will aid the striking trainmen on the
Grand Trunk he said.
"The men on the Grand Trunk had
no course open to them except TO
strike" said Gompers, when the
railroad refused their demands.
but death can prevent their
and death will not come TO
such great numbers"
Directors Confirm Agreement.
St. Louis, Mo, July 2O.-A meet
ing of the directors of the Buck
Stove and Range company was called
today to ratify the agreement
reached yesterday between President
Gompers of the American Federation
of Labor and officers of the COM
pany, ending the open shop policy
which resulted in a five-year fight
between the company and the un-
IONS.
Gompers, it is expected, will ar
rive late today and will meet the
directors. 1t will require about
.hree months it is thought, to put
the agreement into full effect.
The federation of labor will meet
in October and 1t is believed the
lgreement was hastened because of
his fact The agreement probably
will be ratified by the federation at
is meeting in October

Because of his age-13 years, and
because of the extenuating circum-
stances surrounding his case, Her
man Henke, who was charged with
the crime of forgery, has been pa
rolled, and, unless his future conduct
should be bad, he will not have to pay
the penalty for the crime with
which he was charged with having
committed. He received a sentence Of
two years in the penitentiary.
The crime against Henke was al
legged to consist in the forging Of the
name of Alfred jameson to a check
of $95, and having it cashed by the
banking firm of Ladd & Bush. When
he was arraigned he pleaded guilty
to the charge, and through Attorney
Heltzel asked permission from the
court to explain his case, and also to
place witnesses on the stand to tes-
tify to his conduct
Wanted to Pay Note.
Henke, according to his own story,
came to Salem about two years ago
with his parents from the state of
South Dakota, and since then had re-
sided on with them on a farm near
the city. Last winter he came to the
city in search of employment. He
found it, and then, it seems he fell in
to the company of bad associates. He
became indebted to a party for the
sum of $35 and gave his note for
the sum. The party, it seems,
pressed him for payment, and IN
order to meet it he conceived the
idea of the fraudulent check trans
action. 1t appears from his story
that he never really forged the
name of Jameson, but that he repre-
sented to him that he wanted his
name, prevailed upon him to write it

Largest Gymnasium in World.

The new gymnasium of Northwestern
university at Evanston, ILL.,, one of the
suburbs of Chicago. is not only the
largest and most complete in the world,
but is a building that marks a new
departure in gymnasium construction
as we'll. In an illustrated article, Pop
uar Mechanics describes this model
structure.
Ii is building about $50 feet long
by 1870 feet wide. and a floor composed
of mixture of black loan and clay.
During the football season the teams
line up against each other in practice
games in the gymnasium, and tho
scrimmages are as fierce as those
played on the regular football gridiron.
The running track which encircles the
field Is the largest permanent indoor
track in the country and measures just
10 laps To a mile.
clearer idea of the vastness of this
indoor field may be gained from Attn
letic Director Gillespie's statement that
il can accommodate four basketball
games simultaneously, or allow all tho
track and field games of regular coll
legiate meet to be held.

Saws Without Teeth.
Erom uarner,s Weekly


The employment of circular disks of
iron, turning with great velocity. but
possessing no teeth on the edge, for
saving metal, has become common in
many workshops. Among other places
where such saws without teeth are
used are the celebrated Krupp gun
works, where armor plate is sometimes
cut in this manner. The process is
not newly discovered one. AS long
ago as 1924 Darrier and Calladon, at
Geneva, experimental with swiftly ro-
tating disks of iron. They found that
when disk about seven inches in
diameter turned with peripheral We
locity of 10 metres per second, 1t could
be cut with steel tool pressed against
it. but that when the velocity was In
creased to q metres per second the
iron was unaffected and the steel tool
was damaged At velocity of sc
metres per second the iron disk even
cut quartz and agate.
