BRIDGE WRECKED
BY DYNAMlTERS

New York, July 10.-Dynamite
bombs placed under the new trestle
being built by the Lehigh Valley Rail
way company along the bay shore or
Jersey City, exploded yesterday, bad
ly damaging the steel structure and
smashing windows for half a mile
around in the Greenville section. AS
the result of the first explosion two
sixty-foot iron Orders were wrenched
from their position, one of them be-
ing driven through a steel car on
the Jersey Central siding near the
trestle. A second explosion three
quarters of an hour later tossed up
two more Orders.
The police believe both bombs were
set off by means of time fuses and
that the second bomb was timed to
explode amongst those who had been
attracted to the scene by the first ex-
plosion.

FRENCH STATESMAN
INVOLVED IN SCANDAL

Paris, July 10.-A great scandal in
volving ex-Prem:er Georges Clemen-
ceau has broken out in connection
with the trial of Henri Rouchette, the
we'll known French promoter, whose
financial institutions, the Franco
Spanish bank and the Credit Miner,
were closed in March, 1908, when Ro-
Ghetto was arrested ON charges OF ex-
tensive swindling.
Testimony shows that immense
sums of money were made by specu-
lators Immediately before the failure.
It is charged that the arrest OF 10
Ghetto was made on a direct oroeI
from Clemenceau. Several interpret
lations in parliament concerning the
affair will be heard July IL.

implacable enemy of Clemenceau, has

COL. MOSBY LOSES
HIS FEDERAL JOB

Washington, D. c., July 1O-Colo-
mel John S. Mosby, the famous con-
federate guerrilla OF civil war days,
has lost his position as special at
torney in the department of justice
after eight years there. Old age, that
nightmare of government employees, it
is understood, was the main reason
for the dismissal.
Colonel MOsby is about 73 years of
age, but to his old friends he appears
active and energetic. He has been
blind in one eye since he was young
man and lately has been getting deaf.
Comparatively few know of his loss
of position.
Colonel MOSby was appointed a'Spe-
cial attorney for the department early
in the first part of the Roosevelt adj
ministration and was assigned TO
break up the cattlemen's operations
against government land in the mid
die west. His fearlessness in this
work, in spite of numerous threats,
won him the appreciation of President
Roosevelt.
1t is probable that Colonel Mosby
will now devote his time TO writing a
book of the civil war. If he does, the
book should prove sensational-writ-
ten by a man whose name once Gre
ated terror in the hearts of thousands.

EMPLOYEES WILL NOT
ACCEPT OPEN SHOP
STRIKE OF CLOAK AND SKIRT
MAKERS NOT MATTER OF
WAGES AND HOURS.
LEADERS PREDICT $4,000 MORE
WORKERS WILL WALK
OUT.

New York, July 10.-Leading cloak
and skirt makers were unanimous
Saturday in agreeing that the point
at issue between them and their U.s.
600 striking employees is not one OF
wages and hours but of the recogni-
ton of the union. The employees de-
clare they will never accept the open
shop.
Labor leaders predicted Saturday
night that $4,000 more cloak workers
will walk out, making 100000 on the
strike in all. In illustration of what
Samuel Gompers calls ''inhuman con
ditions" the union gave out Saturday
night what it said was sample con-
tract between the newly arrived imml-
grant, unable to read English, and the
cloak maker.
The contract was drawn February
], 1910, and under it the workman
agrees to perform the duties of opera
tor on cloaks and skirts until Febrn-
airy /, 1911, at SIS week. His first
weeks salary is to be withdrawn as
security that he will keep the con-
tract Before May l he is to add S32
to this surety fund, making $40 in all.
His hours are to De from 1880 a. m.
until $50 p. m. These are conditions,
say the union leaders, to abolish
which the strike was called.

to succeed himself. In view of re-
cent political events in Tennessee and
the governors pardon of Col. Dun
can b. Cooper, convicted Of the Car
mack murder and sentenced to 20
years imprisonment, the statement of
Gov. Patterson is particularly inter
estlng. Gov. Patterson represents
the anti-prohibition element of the
Democrats.
In public letter the governor
says:
"Their case was appealed to the
supreme court, and that tribunal di
yided, three being in favor Of an
affirmation of the case against Col.
Cooper, while three were in favor of
reversal as to the son, and two were
In favor of reversal as to both.
"Senator Carmaek, according to
the testimony, was killed by Robin
Cooper and in my judgment any fair
Interpretation Of it shows that the
killing occurred after Senator Car
mack had fired two shots from his
pistol at the defendant. I believe
the act Of Robin Cooper was in his
necessary self-defense, and this view
was evidently shared by the majority
OF the court which reversed his case
On the other hand, Col. Cooper was
not In any conspiracy to kill and I
do not believe any of the justices
so held. If he was not in a con-
spiracy to kill, and did not kill, where
Is the law or justice which will hold
linn guilty Of murder7 Had this
been an ordinary suit, tried in the
ordinary way, without the settings of
passion and excitement, Col. Cooper
would have been acquitted almost as
a matter Of course. Without impugn-
ing the opinions of others, think it
was q miscarriage of justice when he
was not acquitted"

CHILD LABOR IAW'
And Economic Conditions Send
Children to School.
CAROLINA INSPECTORS REPORT
Large Decrease in Number Children
Employed-Mill Men Don't Want
ThemAExperts Needed Parents
Take More Interest.

Columbia, Special. - The factory
inspectors have up to the present time
during the year 1910, completed the
inspection of rs of the textile plants
OF South Carolina, having thus COW
cred nearly half Of the territory. They
have been giving particular attention
to the enforcement of the child labor
laws and incidentally have been max
ing comparison at each mill with
the conditions existing about a
month later last year, which was the
first year of the operation of the
factory inspection law, coupled With
the enforcement of the child labor
laws.
Commissioner Watson says there is
a decrease of 80 per cent il the num-
Der OF boys under II years of age
and decrease of 80 per cent in the
number of girls under y years of
age employed.
There is marked decrease in the
number of children under ii years
of age and it is only those children
that the child labor laws anywhere
are particularly concerned with.
There has been decided increase in
the number of children between the
ages of IA and 16 employed.
1t Is a curious fact, however, that
the real increase among these larger
children is shown in the statement
as to the girls, there being 279 more
girls oil this age employed, than al
the same time last year, whereas there
has been a decrease of the number of
boys of l33.
This rapidly improving condition
OF child labor is not a result of the
enforcement of the inspection and
child labor laws alone, but economic
conditions are probably more largely
responsible for it than anything else.
1t is particularly noteworthy. too.
that mill after mill on the reports
this year, show no children under II
years of age and large number Of
them have Voluntarily notified the
commissioners Office that they never
expect to again employ child under
II years of age. There is a strong
and better sentiment also among the
parents themselves in regard to the
placing Of their children in employ
ment and throughout the State, we
find parents in the villages beginning
to have their ambition aroused for
the education of their offspring and
caring more and more for their phv.
sical health.
