GOMPERS SCORES
TAYLOR SYSTEM
By The united Press.

By The United Press.
WASHINGTON, April 29.-Denounc-
ing the Taylor system" of shop man
agement as "inimical to the building
up of character and manhood among
American workmen." Samuel Gompers
president of the American Federation
of Labor, and James O'Connell, presi-
dent of the International Association
of Machinists today urged the House
Committee on Labor to report the Pep
per resolution providing for an inves-
tigation of the system.
This proposition would make more
money for manufacturers all right,
declared Gompers, "and it would also
kill more workmen. II is certain that
a man cannot work under a speeding
up system for anything like the length
of time that he can under normal con-
ditions."
O'Connell attacked the system bits
terly, declaring that no one would op-
pose investigating the system if 1t was
reasonable and proper.
THE shop which the advocates OF
this system always refer to as an ex-
ample of its workings is the Midvale
Steel Plant" he shouted, land God
help us if we had to work in the Mid
vale shops. Yes. and God help us il
we have to work in any shop under the
Taylor system"

By United Press Leased Special Wire.
CHICAGO, April 29.-According to
Detective William ]. Burns. Ortie
McManigal has been promised no i'm
munity or lenciency for his confession
OF the dynamite outrages, in which
he implicated the Mcnamara brothers.
Burns stated that no torture or
third degree" methods had been in
voked to secure the confession.
McManigal's confession was made
in Chicago on April IS, at the home of
Detective Reed, said Burns "As soon
as | had taken the men into custody I
explained their rights to them, told
them they would not be forced to make
any statement and warned my men
not to CLEAN anything from them.
However, l told the prisoners that If
they knew in their own minds they
had been caught redhanded-as
knew they had been--I would be glad
to have some kind of statement.
"On April Is. McMsnigal sent for
me and said we had the goods on
him. and that he had decided to
make a confession. He confessed
blowing up the Llewellyn Ton Works
plant, and told all about the blowing
up of the Los Angeles Times. He said
he was not implicated in the latter
job but that the McNamaras were
and that they had told him all about
it.

BY The United Press.
HONG KONG. China. April 2s--A
decidedly serious turn in the rebel up
rising in Canton and the surround
ing country was indicated today in
the report that Admiral Ii. the Taotai
of Canton, had been assassinated by
the rebels.
All attempt to confirm the report
have failed, owing TO the rigid censor
ship that the authorities are MAIN
tanning The extreme care taken in
suppressing the real situation has
given rise to the widest fears that
the situation is far worse than dis
closed to the outside world.
Officially, the actual fighting ended
in Canton with the repulse of the
rebels on Thursday. It is known,
however. that the rebels are winning
over a large number of recruits from
the army and are planning another
outbreak. The British authorities are
sending two torpedo boats from this
city to Canton, under instructions to
protect foreign interests at any cost
General Chung died today from
wounds he received in the fighting OF
Thursday.
Many arrests of rebels have been
made, but the instigators of the plot
are safely out of reach of the gov
ernment authorities.

WRICHTS WIN
LEGAL VICTORY
French Court 0VerruleS Coz
tentiOn of BeIriOt
Manufacturers
Bv The United Press


PARIS. April 29.-The Wright
Brothers won a decided victory in the
Civic Tribunal today in their attempt
to prove that they control the basic
patents on aeroplanes. The court an
nounced that it would appoint three
experts to decide whether the Wrights
first used the combination of warping
wings and vertical rudder.
The court overruled the contention
of the Bleriot manufacturers that the
Wright patents went by default be-
cause they were not exploited. The
judge said in his ruling that if the
Wrights failed to exploit their pat
ents, it was plain that this was be-
cause of insufficient funds to do so.
Today's decision is merely an initial
victory for the Wrights. as the real
question as whether Bleriot, Farman,
and the other French manufacturers
have infringed on the Wright patents
is yet to be determined. The decision
of the committee of three appointed
today will have much to do in decid-
ing this point.
