FEDERAL FACTORY
LAW NOT FAVORED

Columbia, S. c., August 26-At the
Joint session of the International Asso-
citation of Factory Inspectors and the
International Association of Labor
Commissioners held here today the
two associations refused to go on
record as favoring a federal factory
law, it being decided to discuss a paper
urging such an act at the next meet
ing of the associations, which is to be
held at Lincoln, Neb. The suggestion
of a federal factory act made by Louis
A. Ravens, special agent of the bureau
of labor of the state of New York pre-
cipitated a lively discussion. There
was some discussion of the number of
hours of work for railway employees,
the recent act of Congress being scored
by several of the delegates.

SWINDLING CHARGE
AGAINST TWO MEN

New York, August GA second indict-
ment charging grand larceny was found
this afternoon against John A. Qualey and
Harvey w. Corbett, accused by Mrs. Mary
Nevins Bull, widow of William T. Bull,
the famous surgeon, of swindling her out
of $50, 900 in stock deal.
The new indictment is founded on the
complaint of Leo Krester, formerly chief
engineer at Newark, N. J., of the Mag
nesia- Asbestos company, promoted by
Qualey and Corbett. Krester says he was
engaged at $50 week and on the strength
of his position agreed to invest 5000 in
the company, of which he paid 5000. He
kept his place until he began to suspect
that his salary was being paid out of his
investment.
The defendants are already under sl5,-
600 bail each and were given until to-
morrow to find new bondsman.

UNIFORM STATE
LAWS NECESSARY
L., J. & L.

Chattanooga, August 26.-The commits
sion on uniform state laws now IN con-
ference in the federal building, had one
of the most important sessions In It's
history today.
The principal work of the session was
the report of the committee of marriage
and divorce, including the second tenta-
tive drafts of acts on the subjects or
marriages and licenses to marry and fam
iv desertion and non-support. These re-
ports were prepared under the direction
of the commissioners OF uniform state
laws In national conference. The reports
were circulated for criticism and sug-
gestions. The conference received the
benefits of those made by prominent
iurlsts who were unable to attend.
IT is believed that the formulated acts
will be generally accepted by the diner-
ent state legislatures.
The longest steps in advance OF exist
ing laws attempted to be taken by the
committee on marriage and divorce, IN
its drafts of a marriage act, proved that
something in the nature of bans be pub
lished as prerequisites of valid mar
rage. The object of the provision is
to take the matter to a court for ad1udi-
cation as to the validity of the objection.
This, at the first glance, appeared reyo-
lutionary, but upon inspection will be
| found to be along the line of previous
legislation in a few states, although II
is an advance over all such legislation.
The act raised to cover the common
cause Of prevention Of desertion and non-
support appeared to be generally accept
ed While nearly every state has some
provision upon this subject most OF the
| laws are at wide variance. In some
states, notably Tennessee, Iowa, Texas,
Nevada and Oregon, there Is no law upon
| the subject.
| The committee proposing the laws, with
| the conference acting as committee
| of the whole, are
| Edward w. Frost. chairman. Michigan;
IT, r. Thornton, Louisiana; 8. M. Tay-
| lor Missouri; r. L. Siddons, District OF
Columbia; Robert Snodgrass, Pennsylva-
MA John r. Emery, New Jersey, and
| Ernest Freund, Illinois.
| The secretary Of the special committee
on uniform child labor law will be pre-
sented and discussed by the conference
tomorrow morning. The conference will
be addressed by Owen L. Lovejoy OF
Georgia, general secretary OF the Child
| Labor association.

injured Frank B. Griffith, a mining man of Los Angeles.
 The shooting was the result of . ns-standing argument betwssn Mrs Krauss and Griffith over allegations by tho woman that the mining man had not only disappointed her in a mining deal. but had also broken faith in his alleged promise to marry her. This argument has been carried on in various parts of the country for months.
 She sought him in his offices in the Story building. Griffith was in the main room and his partner. E. s. Shank, was in the private office ad- joining:
 Mrs. Krauss began the conversa- tion with a repetition of the threats she had made before. Griffith made no reply and turned and walked to- ward his office, his back being toward the woman.
 II had taken but few steps with my back toward her, when premoni- ton of instant danger swept over me and l turned" said Griffith. AS did, l heard the report of the re- volver and felt the sting of the bullet as it creased my chest and struck against my collar bone. 1 kept on turning, getting the second shot in the arm. 1 dropped flat to the floor and rolled and she lowered the gun and fired again.
