NEED NOT GO TO JAIL.
ID. c. Supreme Court Vacates order in
Buck Stove Case.

Washington. oct. 1O.-The District
of Columbia supreme court today va
Gated its judgment in the original
Bucks Stove and Range company in
junction case contempt proceedings
against President Gompers. Vice Presl-
dent Mitchell and Secretary Morrison
of the American Federation of Labor.
in accordance with the decision of the
supreme court OF the United States
handed down last May. The supreme
court held that the jail sentences
against the labor leaders were illegal
because the defendants were found
guilty of criminal contempt in a civil
case. This decision. however, did not
bar the district court from instituting
criminal contempt proceedings on it's
own motion and this was promptly
done by Justice Wright. There have
been various technical skirmishes in
the new pr ,ceedings. and it is expect
ed that hearing will be given within
the next few weeks.

NEGRO BRINGS SUIT.
Refusal to Let Him Ride on Elevator
Brings Out Travel Tale.

Chicago, Oct. 1O.-When Harry F.
Dean. colored, was refused admission
to an elevator in the Chicago & North
western Railway station, he sustained
an injury to what he considers his
rights, and he began suit in the mUni-
cipal court for $3.50 damages
He alleges he was refused admission
because of his color. Trial of the suit
was begun before Municipal Judge
Scully and interest was lent to it by
Deans assertions that he had made
seven trips to Africa, had crossed that
continent seven times, had followed the
routes taken by the famed explorers,
Livingstone and Stanley, and had pene-
trated the fields and forests of Uganda
long before former President Roosevelt
ever planned to hunt there.
His attorney contended that Dean,
by reasons of his travels, his expert
ences, and his education, was more sus-
ceptibIe to a damage to his feelings,
through a refusal of a ride in the eIe-
Vator, than the ordinary person. w
D. Canuillon, representing the railway
company, asked for proof of Deans
travels, and Judge Scully continued the
further trial of the suit to November 5.

As result of this action in refusing

greater part of the Italian army ex-
pedition is now on the way to Tripoli.

conventional language that escaped
the censor.

largest part of the total force sailed
from Naples last night and another
fleet of transports left laramie at
sunrise today. More troops will de-
part from Agosta tonight. These
three groups will assemble as one east

The landing of a whole army corps
in Tripoh is looked on as one of the
most difficult operations of the war,
despite the fact that little fear of an
attack by the enemy is entertained.
According every preeaution looking to
the safety of the troops has been tax

moving area one mile wide and five
miles long Within this square the
