unions have joined hands. At union

Cambridge, Mass, March 9.-One of
the most sensational episodes III the
long drawn out fight over the estate of
Daniel Russell of Melrose came at noon
TODAY. the 104th day of the trial. when
bribery was openly charged by a wit
ness for the claimant. Immediately
afterward one of the witnesses for the
estate repudiated her former identif1-
cation Of the claimant as her brother.
At the opening of the court today it
looked az if the end of the case was in
sight, for one OF the lawyers for the
Russell estate declared that his side
had no further testimony.
Attorney Simpson of North Dakota,
for the claimant, was taken by sur
prise, but bringing in witnesses hastily
he at-once tarted the rebuttal.
Frederick j. Arno of Massena, n. Y,

claimant, was the first witness and
startled the court by his bribery
charge.
He declared that when his mother,

her home after testifying during tile
early stages of the trial, that the
claimant was ner son, she laughlhSiy

said that she did not care now who ne

Mrs. Arno followed her husband on
the stand and was asked whether the
claimant was her brother. Instantly
the court room was in a turmoil. All
six lawyers for the defence jumped to
their feet and objected, shouting at the
Judge and humping the tables to en-
phasize their demand that the woman
be stoned from answering the ques-
ton.
ATTORNEY Simpson stated that the wo-
man during the early part OF the lflal
had been shown an alleged photograph
of the claimant and had identified 1t as
her brother, James Rousseau. The
claimant was not in court at the time.
Since then he has been in court and
was now face to face with the witness
who the defence claims is his half
sister.
For nearly an hour the lawyers argu-
ed the q lestion but Judge LaWton fin
ally allowed 1t and the woman broke
the silence by shouting 'He is not my

NO DEMANDS MADE.
Strikers Have Not Communicated With
Company, Says Pres. Burbank.

New York, March "a. n. Burbank,
president of the International Paper Co,
issued the following statement tonight:
The strike at the International Paper
Cos. mill at Corinth came without any
preliminary demands of any nature hav-
ing been made on the company, nor has
any grievance been alleged since. . /"
The Papermakers' Union and the Pulp
makers Union having recently
affiliated the two unions without
provocation have assumed an antagonis-
tic attitude toward the company. =
Rumors were rife that a strike would be
ordered at the Corinth mill on March %.
On Thursday, March 8, paper mill work
er who had been reported as taking some
of the company's property without au-
thority was discharged therefor. few
papermakeTs refused to continue work
ing unless this offender was taken back.
Their places were filled by others and
nothing further occurred until Sunday.
when all the men except fremen and car
penters voted to strike. The company was
therefore unable to start is plant on Mon
day"
Mr.. Burbank goes on to recite the de-
tails of disturbances that have occurred
and concludes:
THE International Paper Co. has called
upon the sheriff of Saratoga county lor
protection and has notified him that IL
will hold the county responsible for any
damage to it's property. The governor
has been called on for assistance the
sheriff having admitted his inability TO
cope with the situation.
THE employees at the company's mill at
Glens Falls, without any demands or
grievances presented to the company
have been ordered out and at the mill at
Niagara Falls a strike of some of the
employees is also expected. No attempts
have been made to communicate with the
officers of the company by the strikers
