LABOR LEADERS TO
FIGHT STEEL TRUST
Attack on Charter for Violating
Provisions Part of Conn
pers' Campaign
Especial Dispatch 10 The CALI

WASHINGTON. March 27-The
wait for the department of justice to
attack the steel trust. President Com
pers viii go to Indianapolis Tuesday
to confer with Governor Marshall re-
garding a suit the labor leader wants
brought against the steel trust in the
state courts of Indiana.
The purpose of the suit will be to
dissolve the steel trust in Indiana on
the ground that the charter has been
violated. 1t is charged by the fedora
tion that every stipulation of the char
ter has been disregarded. But the thing
that has spurred the federation on is
the alleged condition of labor in the
mills at Gary.
officers of the federation say that
these conditions are worse than those
at McKees Rocks, Pa. ever were. They
say that aliens are being brought in
and given places in the mill and Ameri-
can working men forced out. They
charge that the state sanitary laws
have been violated by the trust by hud-
ding in one room 25 or so working
men.
Gompers said this afternoon that the
company owned most OF the homes in
Gary and that these houses were rented
only to the high priced laborers- He
added:
I'VE are going to begin a campaign
for the election of public officials who
will enforce the laws all along the line.
both for members of congress and OF
state legislatures the federation Will
make a campaign.
According to an officer OF the farm
ers union. that organization will join
in this campaign in support of labor.
Secretary Barrett has been in Washing
ton several days consulting with Com
pers. He Will visit the federation
headquarters tomorrow when the ex-
ecutive council viii hold its last ses-
sion of the called meeting. These ses-
sions have been devoted largely to
working out plan for the organizing

MILLIONAIRE
Pens TALE OF
B'L|NGUM WOES
Society Pillar Paints Black Ro-
nance as Wife Journeys
Merrily to England
Walter McCreery Writing Book
on Recent Divorce Case and
Depicting Friends

Emotions of a millionaire in peace,
in love and in sorrow; flutterings of a
golden heart in adversity; secrets of
club and society; tales hitherto locked
in the aristoeratic breasts of the Bur-
lingame set-all are to appear in print
from the pen of Walter McCreery, club
man and society pillar. who was recent
ly separated from his wife and who is
engag ged in writing his experience in a
book entitled "A Millionaire's Posses
sions."
The work is to be in fiction form.
McCreery is the hero and the other
characters are his Burlingame friends.
He has been engaged on the work since
shortly after returning from Europe.
The opening chapters are finished and
McCreery now is well into the book
working on it daily, anxious to bag his
lacerated feelings while they are fresh
and on the wing.
THE book" said McCreery yesterday,
lis to a large extent my own expe-
riences and the characters in it are the
men and women of Burlingame. 1 be-
lieve l have good material on which to
work.
The book is pessimistic in the ex-
treme. Since he was ordered to pay
$1,000 month to his wife for sep
arate maintenance McCreery has smiled
infrequently and the gloom of his spir-
its has crept into his literature. Every
line has a sigh and the sentences are
punctuated with tear drops The woes
of millionaire are depicted in reck-
less abundance and the general atmos-
phere of the book is to be emphatically
damp and muggy with black clouds on
the horizon and nary a ray of SUM-
light breaking through.
The main possession of the hero is
his wife, and around her the tears
flow. There are side channels, how
ever, in which are shadowed the mis-
cries of having more than enough on
which TO live and which show the utter
futility of trying to be happy though
rich. In dealing with his Burlingame

to the blaekest depths of woe. He in
tends to portray them as he has seen
them and revelations in sadness are
anticipated.
McCreery has discharged all of his
servants. giving them the sack on the
day his wife left San Francisco on her
way to London. Some of his friends
expect him to start travelling within a
short time, but he has made no definite
plans. At present he is content to sit
in his lonely house. debating to his
stenographer all the heart breakings
and woes which attend the lot of some
millionaires

MYSTERY OF STAR
OF STAGE SOLVED
Miss Gerda Nelson Is Wife of
William Frederick Hoffman
and Society MatrOn

Hedged about with a secrecy that de-
fed the curiosity of the theater going
public of the Pacific coast for more
than two months, the identity of the
leading woman in "St. Elmo was es-
tablished yesterday Miss Gerda Nell
son, star of the Belaseo company, is
none other than Mrs. Gerda Wismer
Hoffman, San Francisco society ma
tron and wife of William Frederick
Hoffman. violin virtuoso and com
poser
Following the solution of the most
recent enigma of the green room came
a statement of the reasons that i'm
PEELED the beautiful and talented
woman to leave the quiet of her pretty
bungalow in the foothills near Los
Gatos and return to the stage, where
she has scored one of the hits of the
present season.
No lengthy accounts of the genealogy
of the star were given out when the
"St Elmo" company was organized by
Frederick Belasco. to tour the western
states. The program simply stated
that the leading role, that of Edna
Earl, the blacksmith's granddaughter,
was portrayed by Miss Gerda Nelson"
Regardless of the merits of the play,
the feature of each performance was
the number of curtain calls for Miss
Nelson" Soon the question. Who is
Gerda Nelson?" became standard in
quiry. From Los Angeles to Portland,
where the company is now playing. the
question has been asked thousands of
times.
Mrs. Mathilda Wismer, mother of
Hoffman. reluctantly admitted the ac-
curacy of the solution of the enigma.
Mrs. Hoffman has not returned to
the STAGE she finally stated, because
of any desire or fondness for the glare
of the theater, but from necessity. Her
identity has not been Haunted about
because she abhors notoriety and would
not tolerate it.
unfortunately the present separation
of Mrs Hoffman and her husband has
made il incumbent upon her to support
her two sons, Walter Damrosch and
Robert Jack, who are now with friends
in Los Gatos, and for that reason she
returned TO the stage.
The return of Mrs. Hoffman to the
state brings again into the limclight
the divorce. complaint which she filed
secretly in April, 1909 in which she al
legged cruelty and financial irrespon-
sibility' on the part of her husband.
The suit was Withdrawn when the
complaint. became public five months
after it was filed.
Mrs. Hoffman was a member of the
Augustin DAILY company in New York
when she married in 1899. and is a
sister or Hothdr NisineT, the HOteu
violinist. as well as of Mrs. E. j. zin-
mer. whose husband is vice president
of the Pacific telephone and telegraph
company.
William Frederick Hoffman is at
present leader of the orchestra at the
Palace hotel, and is one of the most
widely known musicians and composers
of the Pacific coast.
