DETROIT STREET
CARMEN STRIKE
Big Fair Tied Up With Thou
sands Expected During Re-
mainder of Week

Detroit, Sept. 20.-Fifteen hundred
employees of the Detroit United Rail-
way company went on strike at 6:20
o'clock this morning and no street
car is running in the city. The men
get %, 25 and % cents per hour they
ask Is and 80 cents an hour.
Out through the great factory dis
tricts the great army of working men
trudged down the center OF the
streets on their way to work this
morning on the deserted car tracks.
The state fair officials are anxious
and morried about the conditions at
the fair grounds. With the big fair
under way only two days and with
thousands of people expected today
and all the rest of the week, it meant
great loss to them.
The men are asking for a raise of
two cents higher and when the COM
pany at one point of the conference
asked whether the union would con-
slider a thirteen hour day at the new
schedule they offered to try the hours
for thirteen days and at that point
In the negotiations the matter was
dropped. That proposition stood
good in yesterdays deliberations, but
the company declined to accept it and
instead insisted that If the question
Of wages is to be considered at all, the
men must accept the thirteen hour
schedule without trial.

What we did at the extraordinary
session is only an earnest of what
We will accomplish at the next two
regular sessions.
THE very best and most important
result of the extraordinary session
was that we formed the habit of act
ing and pulling together and have
come to take pride in so doing.
Claims Credit For Reciprocity
"In this connection, it should be
stated that the Democrats in the
house of the Sixty-second congress,
aided by some Republicans, passed
the reciprocity bill, as they had done
in the Sixty-first. President Taft, with
all tho power. prestige and patronage
of his mighty office could in neither
congress muster a majority of the

But defective as it is, the reciprocity
bill is step in the right direction
that is, in the direction of reducing
the high protective tariff to revenue

DENOUNCES OUR
MARRIAGE LAWS
Nine. Emma Eames Declares
She and Her Husband Are
Happy

New York, Sept. 20.-Mme. Emma
Eames, who arrived here today for
the first time since her marriage to
Emilio De Gorgoza, replied to a re-
port that her wedding was to be at
tackled by the authorities of the Ro-
man Catholic church with vigorous
denunciation of the marriage laws of
this country.
I'VE should not turn our attention
to the question of divorce and of the
remarriage of divorced persons in this
country, she said, "but rather con-
saer the laws that govern marriage
itself. 1t took us five months to salts
fy the authorities in France that MIR.
DeGorgoza had the right to marry,
but in this country two excited young
people can wake up a man at night
and wed and have the rest of their
lives in which to regret It,"
The American diva said she was alb
solutely happy and her husband, who
was with her declared he was also.
They stood at the rail together and
watched the approach to the city like
persons who have been away from
home for a long time.
She told about her own Wedding
and ideas of marriage almost with
gladness. Nine. Eames said she had
long wishes to be Roman Catholic
and was glad she was one now, out
side of any question regarding her
own marriage.
"The wonderful organization of the
Catholic church and the French laws"
she said, caused all sorts of formali-
ties to be gone through before my
present husband and l could be mar
ried. and it was proper that these
restrictions should exist. do not
mind them for they are proper. This
talk of the church investigating our
right to have been married is absurd.

DRANK BACILLL
Amazing Test Of Thames Water Il
Made by DR.. Houston,

Amazing Test Of Thames Water is
Made by DR.. Houston.
London, Sept. 20.-A remarkable
and daring experiment by DR.. Hous-
ton. director of water examination for
the Metropolitan water board, during
which he drank raw water from the
Thames containing typhoid bacilh ID
described in report Just issued.
Some time ago experiments were
made which proved that Cultivated
strains Of the microbe possessed con-
siderable vitality, but tests with ba-
cilli taken direct from typhoid case
showed that they were not quite go
hardy when they had grown among
their natural surroundings.
The wild" microbe is not always
easy to obtain, but DR.. Houston was
lble, for the purposes Of his expert
ment,. to take his supply from a per-
son. who had suffered from typhoid,
and had infected no fewer than forty
persons.
The bacilli perished very rapidly
when placed in samples of raw
Thames water, but DIR. Houston re-
garded the result, although satisfac-
tory, as negative one, and decided
on a more positive test. Accordingly,
he drank half a pint Of the infected
water. This had no i'll effect, although
the water had contained more than
218,000,0 typhoid bacilh.

HARVESTER. TRUST
SEEKING COVER
Government Will Permit It to
Readjust It's Organization
to Court Decision

Washington, Sept. 20.-That the
government is ready to permit the In
ternational Harvester company vol
untary to readjust its organization to
conform to the recent interpretations
Of the Sherman law became known
here today. Pending the result of q
conference between Attorney General
Wickersham and the attorneys for
the company, the threatened dissolu-
ton suit Is being delayed.
Negotiations looking to an under
standing between the government and
the company which were begun in
Washington last summer by Edgar A.
Bancroft, general counsel for the
Harvester company, were continued
at Cedar Hurst, Long Island, where
Attorney General Wickersham has
been spending the summer.
They reached the stage, 1t is said,
where 1t will be necessary for Ban
croft to refer the question of reor-
ganization to the company's board of
directors.
Financial circles recently have
heard persistent reports that the gov
ernment was ready to bring an anti
trust suit against the company. Some
of the papers necessary for the court
proceedings were prepared, but the un-
derstanding here is that the govern
ment at no time has been inclined to
precipate the case as long as the
company showed a disposition to
meet the demands of the federal au-
thOrities.

GABY DELIGHTED
Finds Excuses for Mrs. Suydam and
Her Affinity.


New York, Sept. 2O.-Having had an
excellent luncheon, Mile. Gaby Deslys
at table in the St. Regis dining room
today. became delightfully."- interested
when the story of Mrs. Suydam and
Affinity Noble, the plumbers son, was
outlined to her.
"Is is possible?" she cried galy, in
her broken English. Il had no idea
the Americans had so much esprit.
Never did / think the American wom-
an would do anything SO abandon for
love. In Paris we say that you never
make q betise-what you call it
mess-of your lives, but always so
correct. And monsieur, the husband,
what he do now? Nothing? All, mon
dieu, how deevarting."
"Then you are disposed to COM
mend Mrs. Suydam's step?" the re-
porter suggested.
"Oh, don't know. That is strong.
But l do not blame her either No
one knows what she had to suffer
from her husband-a, man who does
nothing when she runs away. OF
course, it is a bit crude, nest ce pas? ?
Is it necessary when divorce, they
tell me is so easy here? But may be
she loves much, and so it is to forgive
much to her"
"Are you going to give anything
very naughty on the stage?" "Oh,
no." she replied, opening her blue
eyes very wide, "just to sing and
dance. If people find badness-ah,
WE'LL" and she shrugged her shoul-
ders, "what is the American for 'honi
soft qui NAL y pense?"

Boston, Sept. 20.-With death in the
electric chair staring him in the face,
Chester s. Jordan, convicted of wife
murder, has but one regret, that he
cannot have the daily papers as we'll

II wish I could have the daily pa-
pers as we'll az the Sunday papers"
he said today. "because / can't keep
tab on the market as we'll. Things
will begin to get active in a few days,
and the dailies would better aid me to
keep in touch with the situation"
With this remark Jordan produced
from under the blanket of his bunk in
the East Cambridge Jail book in
which were many charts showing the
rise and fall Of the prominent stocks
for months back.
Several months stay of sentence
was gained for Jordan until the su-
preme court of the United States has
acted upon the writ of error filed by
