CAUSE ROW IN
FEDERATION
UNITED PRESS LEASED wrRn.l

Atlanta, Ca, Nov. 17.-President
Samuel Gompers, of the American
Federation of Labor, was the target
for an attack by the Western FEEDER
alton of Miners, which was made to-
day at the convention of the labor
federation here, when the miners in
troduced a resolution demanding that
all members of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor resign from the Ma
tional Civic Federation.
Gompers is a prominent member
of the Civic Federation and has re-
peatedly stated that he considered his
membership in that organization of
value to him and would not sever his
connection with 1t.
The resolution was referred to the
committee on resolutions, which dis
cussed the matter heatedly. The
committee refused to state what de-
cision they reached
It is expected that the measure
will precipitate a hot fight on the
floor of the convention.

Seattle, Nov. 17.-Federal Judge
Hartford, yesterdy declined to grant
an injunction to the Seattle Electric
company which would restrain the
city from forcing the sale of reduced
fare tickets on street cars A pecul-
iarity of the decision was the asser-
tion by the court that the streetcar
company could make more money
without the injunction under the new
methods of selling tickets. In effect
he said that the company did not
know what was good for it in asking
an injunct on ard he therefore would
not grant 1t.

pending full investigation into the
death of her husband, Nicholas Sara

was discharged. Oh, it was awful.
My husband dropped in his tracks
and died without a word"
At this stage of her recital, Mrs.
Saraceno became hysterical and was
placed in charge of the matron.
Wife Only a Girl.
The charge which was fired at close
range, entered Saraceno's BRAIN
death resulting instantly. Neighbors
were attracted to the house by Mrs
SaracenO's screams. They found her
kneeling across his form, kissing his
face and hands and begging him tC
speak to her. With the arrival OF
neighbors, she swooned and was un.
conscious when the police arrived.
Mrs. Saraceno is a beautiful young
woman apparently about 10 year,
old. Her husband was 27. Neigh
bors say the couple were extremel.
happy and that they were singini
only a few seconds before the sho
was heard.
Saraceno had about completed ar
rangements for opening a grocery es
tablishment in the downtown distric
of Los Angeles.
Mrs. Saraceno's mother and sister

of Uncle Sans big seafighters in or
near San Francisco and two more
steaming full speed up the coast, a
naval mobilization which may culml-
nate / ma voyage to China today Is
well under way.
The famous old battleship Oregon
and the big new battleship South

Maryland have anchored at Mare Is
land for some small repairs and the
Colorado and West Virginia which
left San Diego Wednesday, are ex-
pected to arrive any hour.
No information is available here as
to whether the big seafighters are to
go to China but the hasty departure
of the three cruisers from San Diego,
the sudden despatch of the cruiser
Cincinnati for the Orient yesterday
and the great activity in naval cir

the warships, practically all of them,
will soon be steamiug across the Pa

Orders have been received by the
naval officials here to have every
vessel on the coast placed In readl-

San Diego, CAL, Nov. 17.-Fear-
ing that the great dirlglble alrship.
built by C. H, Toliver, in a we'll set
tied residence portion Of the city,
will explode and kill more than 1000
people in that vicinity the council
this morning sent to Los Angeles for
two smaller balloons, to be used in
carrying the big bag out of the city
limits.
These balloons will be hurried to
San Diego on the first train, and It is
hoped that the dlriglble can be car
ried into the back country Sunday
Meanwhile guards will be stationed
around the dirlgible to keep the
crowd back.
City Is In Danger.
It is admitted by all officers that
the city is in grave danger. A test
of the hydron gas in the Tollver ma
chine made by tn Getty electrician,
proved beyond a doubt that the gas
Is of the most explosive character,
The electrician and two assistants
we're injured when the test was made
It was demonstrated that II the 240,-
600 cubic feet OF gas In the balloon
should explode, houses would be
wrecked for miles around, and not
window pane In the city would be
left intact. The fault lies in Toliver
allowing the gas to become mixed
with air in the great air caft. An
explosion would undoubtedly kill or
injure everybody residing within a
radius Of half mile on every side.
Dare Not Tap It.
Experts appeared before the city
council this morning and testified
that It would be extremely dangerous
to let the gas out of the balloon.
They declare that the gas would
reach houses where there was fire
burning, and that the flames would
quickly burn back to the balloon,
and an explosion follow. It was
then that Toliver suggested that the
dlrlgible be removed into the noun
tains by other balloons. He agreed
to go to Los Angeles with City Elec-
triclan Jewell to procure the bal
looms and they left together on the
afternoon train.
Il Cost $4,000.
