Federation OE LABOR.

Notwithstanding Genials OF several OF
OF the socialist leaders in the convention
OF the American Federation OF Labor at
St. Louis yesterday, that no fight IS be-
ing made on President Samuel Gom-
crs in an effort TO elect a socialist rs
his successor, there was every indication
of it. il was lenrncd through an
authoritative source that the socialists
had arranged for holding CAUCUS late
this week, at which will b. outlined
plans for action.
Max Hayes, Of Cleveland, Victor l..
Berger's candidate for president OF the
federation, admitted be had heard that
.uch a caucus would be held. Hayes
said he would not have the position II
offered him, tut that John Walker or
Frank Hayes, both miners and socialist
would DC capable OF rendering a good
account OF themselves.
Gov. Hadey received prolonged APP
plausc yesterday at the close OF his ad:
dress, in which he criticised the courts
and upheld Rooserelt's policy.
The report OF the executive council
was read. Many recommendations
were made, among which was sus-
gcstion that farmers throughout the
country form alliances or unions, as the
| result of which the unionist would de-
mand and use only their products.

FIGHT A STREET CAR.

Because Henry Norton, aged 70, =
government clerk. slightly iostled her
when he took the only remaining seat
in crowded Pennsylvania avenue car
in Washington, lat night, Louise Phil
lips, young negro woman, struck
him in the face. Before Norton could
be stopped he had knocked the woman
down.
Mr.. Norton boarded the car at tho
Georgetown transfer point opposite the
treasury. He crowded himself into the
only remaining seat, which was near
the woman. She showed her displeas-
ure by mumbling remarks to which
Mr.. Norton paid no attention.
At Seventh street the Phillips woman
arose TO transfer to the Seventh street
line, and rs she started out OF the car
she turned to Mr.. Norton, remarking
in a loud voice: You old gray-headed
poor white trash; I'll teach you how TO
suit lady," and she struck Mr.. Nor
ton in the face with her hand.
Norton knocked the woman down.
She attempted to rise, and at each ef-
fort she was again promptly knocked
down.
1t required the efforts OF two police
men to subdue Norton. He and the
woman we're taken to the Sixth pre-.
